A/N: Ack! I took long to update didn't I? I'm sorry, but I had all that work and my doggy died. He was 11 years old. We all miss him very much. He was like a part of the family. Used to comfort me when I was little when my brothers used to scare me or make me cry. But he was sick and it's better this way, I know he is better wherever he is.

To make up for the time, I am posting 2 chapters, instead of 1. The warning is that they aren't very good. Well, there's not any H/G contact at all, but I feel they are important. Please read them anyway. The replies to the reviews are at the end of the next chapter. I'll try to update as soon as I can, but my bet is that it won't be before the next weekend. Anyway, Happy Easter everyone!

Chapter 12- Making up and just who is that really hot guy?

Oh my god! What is he doing here? I thought as I saw him approach me.

"Ginevra Weasley! What do you think you are doing? What if you got killed?"

"Percy!" I squealed out.

He didn't respond, he just did the big brother thing and gave me a bone-crushing hug. He was definitely mum's son.

"Perce…can't…breath…" I chocked out. He weakened the grip around me but kept an arm around me.

"Are you okay Gin? Gods what did that man do to you?" He lifted my shirt slightly and eyed my side critically like he used to when Ron or I got hurt. Mum was always busy, Bill and Charlie were hardly at home, and the twins…well, they were the twins.

I felt a bit weird since the group who had come to our rescue were all wearing black capes, sort of like Batman, only without the rubber suit and the mask. Yes, I have read Batman and Hermione IS contagious. I got Hermionitis when I met her and have read everything I could get my hand on. I even had the guts to borrow some books from Snape. Annnyyywwaaayyy, back to the story…

A group of about twelve people were surrounding us and I started feeling a bit awkward, so, I smiled at them politely and said a small 'hi'

They all smiled back and went back to watching my brother try and heal my wound.

"Percy!" I hissed. "What?" He asked, not even bothering to look up

"Can you do this later and please explain what is going on and how you got here?"

He nodded quietly and pulled me aside so that I was sitting on his lap, much like I used to sit on all my brothers' when I was little. He quickly put a silencing charm around us and started to speak. "Gin, I've joined the League of Light. I realized that the ministry was in trouble when I heard the minister making few deals with Lucius Malfoy. I was spying on him for sometime, but then I decided to leave. I live in America now, in Delaware. I've changed my name to Ryan Duggan. Ginny…I'm also spying on Voldemort. I'm a…I'm a death eater."

He spoke haltingly and I swallowed the lump in my throat as he lifted his sleeve to reveal the dark mark.

I gaped at it for sometime. He was unusually quiet and patient as I took my time to absorb what he had told me.

"Perce, did you cut yourself off from us, because of this? Couldn't you have just joined the Order instead of leaving?"

He sighed and leaned his head against my shoulder. "The Order is out of date. You know Dumbledore doesn't think that it's important to have some contact with other countries or even members in other countries. He refuses to co-operate with other groups against Voldemort. For someone so wise he makes so many mistakes, and we just can't afford to loose this war because of these mistakes. Believe me, I was just as upset about leaving as Mother was. I hated saying those things to father and her, but if I got into trouble, they would come after one of you. And I…I just couldn't…"

His voice faltered after that, but I had understood what he was saying. I heard my brother let out a sob and I hugged him. He cried into my shoulder for a while and I cried with him.

We dried our eyes after a few minutes and he apparated with me to their HQ in the states. The others apparated around us. Percy left the room saying he would be back in a few. The witch tending to me before used muggle bandages that had some charms on it to cover the holes on the side of my body.

One of the members got me a cup of tea and I looked up to thank him and I just sat with a cup in my hand gaping like a fool. He was hot! Harry Potter hot! Only he seemed a two or three years older than Harry. He had brown hair and absolutely blinding blue eyes.

"Thank you." I said quietly as the infamous Weasley blush crept up my face. He grinned at me and stretched out his hand. "I'm Mark Benson. You must be Dugg's sister?"

Where have I heard that name before? I nodded and shook his hand, "Nice to meet you Mr. Benson. My name is Ginny."

"No need for the formalities Ginny, I'm only a few years older." He said winking at me.

I nodded and started sipping my tea so that my hair would cover my face.

To my embarrassment he laughed and said, "You are cute."

I smiled shyly. I can get very shy at times like this.

"Oh, Mark, stop flirting and embarrassing her like that!" Scolded a VERY familiar voice from behind.

I turned around to see Percy's old girlfriend standing there. I didn't even realize what I was doing and thrust my tea into Mark's hands and flung my arms around her giving her a Weasley hug as Mark fumbled with the cup.

"Penny!"

She laughed and hugged me back, "It's good to see you too Gin. I have also changed my name. I'm known as Jennifer or Jenny here."

"Oh, what'd you change your last name to? Or are you still Clearwater?"

"Oh, no." She replied, "I'm also a Duggan." She showed me the wedding ring on her left ring finger.

"You got married!" I hugged her again. "I have a sister-in-law!"

She laughed with me, "So do I."

My eyes flew to the side of the room where a crib stood. I looked at her and she pulled me to it. Inside was a little baby girl with curly red hair and bright blue hair kicking her legs about. I looked at Penny in surprise. She smiled and said, "Her name is Annabelle, Annie for short. She is nearly 8 months old."

I grinned, "You named her after me."

She nodded, "Yup, she reminded Percy of you because she keeps stuffing her socks in her mouth and keeps trying to steal everyone else's."

A very obvious fact hit me and I squealed, "I am an aunty!"

And Penny squealed right back, "My baby has an aunty!"

"Now that the both of you have stated the obvious, can we get down to more serious stuff."

Percy was standing at the frame of the door looking very amused.

We went to the living room of the house and Mark handed me my teacup. I had completely forgotten about it.

"Sorry, I forgot."

He didn't say anything but winked at me once more. I looked away to see Percy observing us.

"I see you met Mark. He's an American Auror. An important part of the League. Didn't Harry want to be an Auror?"

Hmm, Crystal must have mentioned his name sometime.

I nodded, "Yes, Both, Harry and Ron want to be Aurors."

"Ron got an outstanding in Potions?" He asked in wonder

I laughed at his amazement. "Yes, Hermione pulled his head out of his arse and into his books."

"So are they together now?"

"Yes, finally! I couldn't believe it took him so long to ask her. I had to lock them in a broom closet before they would admit anything."

"Really that's sad. Anybody else paired up?"

"Um, yeah…Bill's still with Fleur, Charlie's with some girl in Romania he didn't go into details. Fred's still with Angelina, George is still Girl-less, but Remus and Tonks are together."

His red eyebrows shot up. "Remus and Nymphadora? Now, that's an odd pair."

I nodded, "It is a bit odd, but it's really cute. They are really good together."

"Oh yeah, Sinistra's got a crush on Snape."

Penny spit out the tea she had just sipped and Percy was horrified. "What!" He exclaimed.

I started giggling madly and when I finally managed to breath properly I said, "And I think he likes her too, but is in complete denial!" I burst into a fit of giggles again.

Percy clutched his head and exclaimed, "Oh my god! You're joking!"

I shook my head. "Nope. But it's nice. He's really nice when he isn't around the Slytherines."

He smiled sadly, "I finally understand what he must feel like. Ginny how well do you know him?"

"Pretty well, he's become a lot more open around me. Why?"

"Gin, Voldemort knows where his loyalties lie. I think he may be in danger."

Shite! Just what we need, another complication!

"I'll inform him, don't worry."

He nodded, "So, Gin, any boyfriends?"

Trust my brothers to pry. "I was with Dean Thomas over the summer, but not anymore."

I saw Mark grinning widely from the corner of my eye and groaned in my head. This is NOT what I need.

Percy was leaning back with his entwined behind his head. He sort of reminded me of dad, only he looked a lot younger.

"You know, Mark here is unattached. Maybe you two would like to go on a date?"

"Percy!" I hissed at him.

He grinned at me and I tried my hardest not to blush as I turned to face Mark. I was surprised to see him grinning too. He smiled wider as he said, "I won't mind. I happen to like mischievous and pretty girls. Percy tells me you are quite the prankster." Then he winked at me, AGAIN!

I blushed harder and glared at me brother before replying to what Mark had said. "Mark, you seem to be a really nice guy. But, I can't go out with you. I'm sorry, I don't think we are suitable together, plus there…um…there sort of is someone else."

The smiles dropped of the three faces in front of me in an instant.

Percy looked at me sharply, "I though you didn't have a boy friend."

I swallowed. Percy always made me nervous. Somehow he always made me feel like a little girl who had done something wrong and was sitting in a cranky headmaster's office.

"Heh. Perce. You see, we aren't really together. Even though everyone thinks we should be. The thing is this really crazy sorceress in Hungary has bonded us. He doesn't know and it doesn't mater that I've been in love with him for the past…I don't know …eight year and he'll never see me as anything else other than the Weasley boys' baby sister."

I watched as Percy role his eyes, "Let me guess…Potter." He gritted out as I nodded meekly.

"Harry Potter!" asked Mark, hi eyes round and wide.

I nodded again as he gaped at me, "You are bonded to Harry Potter!"

"YES! What are you…dumb? That. Is. What. I. Said." I was starting to get frustrated. What can I say? I'm a Weasley…we are impatient and hot tempered at moments like this.

I saw Mark shrink back a bit, so did Penny. I must have been red. I've been told I look a bit…intimidating like that.

"Yes! I AM bonded to Harry-bloody-Potter. And I am completely and utterly in love with him. But he won't notice me. Why? I don't know. Maybe it's because I have red hair, or that I have too many freckles or I'm just too pale. I really don't know. But what I DO know is that every one of his parents' friends think we would be perfect together. Including Crystal. And of course it isn't a good idea to break the bond until Voldemort and Ferret face are dead or I might be taken away and forced to be wedded to one of them, as the both of them are so bloody eager to make me their bloody bride. Trust me, II am NOT happy with the arrangement!"

My brother looked at me sadly, "I know about Voldemort. I've been trying to convince him that he is wrong. Gin, I don't want you getting into any danger. Try and stay out of it as much as possible."

I smiled at him without saying anything.

I apologized to Mark, but he just did his winking thing and said that every guy likes "feisty" girls, so I shouldn't have a problem "nabbing" Harry.

I rolled my eyes and said, "I'll write to you soon, I think I know a girl you might like, she's a major prankster, she's pretty, smart and has a bit of a temper. I feel that the two of you will get along well."

He grinned in response and nodded giving me permission to set him up. 'Ginny Weasley, matchmaker extraordinaire!' I snorted in my mind thinking how weird that sounded. But he liked pretty and mischievous girls didn't he? One of the twins would be perfect. Karen was dating Jack Slopper, so it was Kate.

I looked up at my brother who was looking at me carefully. He smiled softly and looked at Penny. She nodded and left the room, followed by Mark.

"Perce what is it?"

"Ginny what are your plans for the future."

I looked at him puzzled about his reasons for asking. I slowly told him about my role in the war. The healing, helping Harry and weakening Voldemort. About the spell I had formed. My leaving the wizarding world and coming to America. The company Colin had managed to set me up with so I would have a job as soon as I moved. The house I would live in. Finally I told him about my attempt at finding Padfoot and why I believed he was still alive.

"Crystal is helping me. I am almost done with the calculations. Till now I have it pinned down to somewhere between North and South America."

"You are using location charms too, aren't you?"

I nodded, "Of course. But I need a bit more time. When I find the location, I'll let you guys know. But I want to go too. And I am not about to argue about that."

He nodded and said, "Gin, the reason I asked was that I want you to be the godmother of my child."

I started visibly. "Perce! I am 15! 15 years old, if something happens to the both of you, you want someone responsible on not a 15 year old who seems to always land in danger."

He chuckled and it made me more angry, "Gin, I am doing this for totally selfish purposes. Do you really think I would just hand over my daughter to just .anyone?" Looking at my confused face, he continued. "Ginny, you are one of the most powerful...no, forget one of them, you are the most powerful witch of our time. You are a healer; the child won't have to be taken to the hospital. You are wonderful with children; Shaklebolt won't let any other teenager take care of his child. You are bright, well read, and well mannered; my child will not turn out to be dumb or ill mannered. Whether you will admit it or not, you are the safest option. With your powers, you would be able to cast a VERY powerful protection charm. I am not worried at all. I know this is a lot of responsibility, and you probably won't even want it. But Ginny, I'm begging you to do this. I want her too know my family and you are the only one I can ask."

I felt my heart twist. Why did things like this happen? Why did we even have to think- 'If something happens to…' It just wasn't fair. All I wanted was that my entire family was together and happy again. That wish was so simple, but just as impossible now. There was no way I was going to let anything happen to that child. A sort of protectiveness came over me and I agreed with his wish. Even if I couldn't get my wishes, it didn't mean that I shouldn't let the others get theirs.

He grinned at me and hugged me tightly. I couldn't help but smile back

We spent the next few hours talking. He gave me information the League had gathered on Voldemort and the British Ministry of Magic It seems like the League and the order are going to be co-operating through me, even though they may not know it. But, co-operation is always a good thing, no matter what Dumbledore thinks.
