Chapter 4

Dear Hermy,
guess what? My mom just got the news; she's been transferred to the England Ministries Department of Mysteries! Isn't that exciting?
Anyhow, the most exciting part of this is that I got to pick which school I want to go to, mom wanted me to go to Beauxbatons, but I told her that I really wanted to go to Hogwarts. Mom said that she had heard that Harry Potter goes there, isn't that awesome! So while I get to see you for the first time, maybe we'll be in the same house, I may also get a chance to see The Harry Potter!
Well, I better leave it at this because we're supposed to be moving and getting ready for school and everything today.
Sincerely,
Lizzy.

P.S
I get to be sorted, groan, with all the first years, talk about embarrassment.

Dear Ronald,

At the ministry we have been investigating into why the last 'War' was lost. We have been thinking lately that Harry Potter may have thrown it on purpose. So with these thoughts in mind I would advise you to stay away from him, no, better yet, get closer to him and find out if he did, and why.
If you get these results please mail me back quickly by owl, with one other than this pygmy, he's too excitable for the office.
Sincerely,
Percy

Dear Harry,

In the new school term this year we will have some new assignments that you will be needed to perform, and you shall be expected to take some new courses to help you in fighting Lord Voldemort. After last time I figure that you need to be strengthened in a few areas.
Sincerely,
Albus Dumbledore

All three teens that had gotten the letters were looking thoughtful at the moment as they went over their letters in their heads. Ginny, who was feeling irritated at being ignored balled up a sock and threw it at her brother.

'What, am I not here or something?'

Hermione laughed and ruffled Ginny's hair; Harry smiled as Ron picked up the smelly sock and threw it back at his sister.

'No, there is no possible way to forget you being here. You always end up reminding us.'

Hermione looked at Ron and said with an angry mask on her face, 'Why do you always have to be so mean to everybody?'

As Hermione stood up and stormed out Ginny looked at Ron as she followed and said, 'Smooth move.'

Harry looked at Ron and Ron said, 'Bloody hell…..women. Who can understand them?'

Harry gave a bit of a grin as he said, 'Maybe you should take a bit of Fred and George's effeminate potion?'

Ron gave a grimace and looked at Harry with wide eyes, 'No way, not after seeing you with it.'

The two boys began to start laughing and joking about all the stupid things that they'd done, all the spots of trouble they'd gotten themselves into. As time passed Harry cleaned out Hedwig's cage, and all other sorts of yummy goodness that consisted in owning an owl.

As they got to the war the two boys stopped talking and fell into an uneasy silence, Ron was staring at Harry with a strange look on his face as he thought to himself, "Why does e have to be so good looking and always be considerate of others, even if they don't deserve it?"

Harry caught Ron staring at him and said with a puzzled frown, 'What's up? You look like you're going to be sick or something?'

"Yeah, sick in love with you" But knowing he could never say it Ron said, 'I think I'm still feeling a bit grossed out by the invisible hand and all. You know, it's creepy to feed yourself with no hand.'

Harry laughed and at this point Hermione and Ginny came back into the room, Hermione smiled and handed Ron and Harry two letters stamped with the crest of Hogwarts, 'Our supplies lists are here.'

Ron smiled broadly at the new flow of conversation, 'That's good, I mean, we have to go to Diagon Alley, so we could stop in Fred and George's shop to get some pranks for school.'

Harry looked at Ron and said in a sad sigh, 'I won't be able to pull and pranks this year. With the extra studies I'll be lucky if I can even continue Quidditch.'

Ginny looked at him and patted his shoulder consolingly, 'Don't worry; we'll schedule our practices around your extra classes. And if you still can't make it work out, we can always find another seeker.'

Harry smiled as he realized that last was just a bit of friendly teasing. Grabbing her in a headlock he gave her a noogie and said, 'Say Uncle.'

'Never!'

'Come on, I know you're gonna say it.'

'No, no…ahhhahahhahaa….'

Harry smiled as he turned his attention from the noogie to tickling her. Hermione laughed as she watched the two friends play around, a hint of jealousy. Ron though was watching as if he could murder his sister, standing up he marched over and separated them.

'Come on, we have to go get our school things. We don't have time for this.'

Harry looked at Ron with a questioning look and Ron blushed silently. Ginny looked at her brother and said, 'Whatever. Hermy and I will go get our stuff and meet you two down stairs.'

Harry nodded his head and said, 'We'll be about 10 minutes.'

Hermione waved good bye to them as she and Ginny left to go to Ginny's room and get ready. Turning to Ron Harry said, 'Mate, you have got to lighten up.'

Ron nodded his head and said, 'Yeah, I know, sorry. I'm just really confused right now about….things.'

Harry nodded his head in understanding and said with a laugh, 'Been there, done that.'

OK, I promise, this will be the last, let say, boring, chapter before it starts to actually get intrestining. But I have to warn you. now they will take a bit longer to write, as I'm going to try and incorporate humour, and new ideas into my writing, along with some type of plot line.
But, I really need you guys to start reviewing please, especially since I truly need a beta.
