Hermione stumbled back into the Ministry of Magic with fresh wounds and bleeding badly. Finally Hermione found Tonks (entering her office in the Auror Department) but then again who could miss that pink hair and gold nose ring.

"God Hermione, for an eighteen year old slayer you've got more wounds in one day than a twenty-four year old gets in a week." Tonks said calmly cleaning the cuts as Harry walked in with a grim look on his face.

"What's wrong with you?" Hermione asked stepping away from Tonks as she finished. Harry looked up as if just realizing where he was.

"Ginny's mad at me again," Harry said with a hint of sorrow in his tone. Tonks looked up at Harry with a puzzled look on her face.

"How would you know if she was mad at you if she's still in school?" Tonks said. Harry reached into his back pocket, pulled out a red envelope and tossed it on the table in front of the girls.

"She sent you a howler?" said Hormone slightly amazed "you'd better open it or end up paying the fire bill." Harry looked at the two girls afraid to open it.

"Tonks why don't you open it?" he said stepping back from the table.

"No way I'm not the one she's mad at!" Tonks said in a nervous tone. Hermione stepped forward and picked the letter up.

"Chickens" she said as she began to open it up. Then the letter jumped out of her hands and opened itself.

Harry Potter!... will you please go back out with me?" The letter finished and turned into a dove which flew out the window.

"Last time I checked howlers weren't suppose to do that." Tonks said still staring at the open window.

" ' Harry you need to go and write a letter back to Ginny;' " Hermione stopped to think for a moment " ' And say yes' please I am tired of you mopping around."

Harry pulled Hermione into a friendly hug "Thank you!" he said.

"Your welcome but you're crushing my back" he let go, waved to the girls and left.

"Ok Hermione;" said Tonks "Time for your assignment…"
