"Oh Harry dear why don't you sit down. Breakfast is almost done." Molly Weasley said walking in and out of the kitchen. None of the Weasley boys where awake yet except for Mr. Weasley who sat at the end of the table reading his newspaper.
"Morning Ginerva." Mr. Weasley said looking up from his paper as his pride and joy, his daughter came walking down the stairs. Now Harry had been staying at the Burrow for a week already but still Ginny could not stop blushing when she saw him and she took to making sure she was dressed before she came down every morning.
"Ginny why don't you take Harry out back and set the table. I think we'll eat out side today, it's so lovely." Mrs. Weasley said, hovering place setting over to Ginny who gathered them in her arms, Harry got up to help.
The two made it out side and Ginny began setting the large table, in silence. Harry's green eyes watched her as she gracefully moved around the table putting out the dish ware, her red hair swaying back and forth in the morning breeze.
"How you doing Ginny? Sorry we haven't had time to talk in the past week." Harry said, who had spent the first two days sleeping and the rest of his time eating.
"Fine." she replied quietly.
"You know Ginny you can talk to me." Harry said.
"It's nothing personal." Ginny said.
"Ginny I know what you went through in the chamber and."
"And what!" Ginny said her temper starting to peak. "Don't say you know what I felt, being controlled by some one else. Watching yourself do unspeakable acts and unable to stop yourself." Ginny replied and set down the last plate.
"I wasn't trying to imply anything Gin..ny." Harry said catching himself.
"It's just that I'm your friend to and if you ever needed some one to talk to who wasn't related to you I just want you to know I'm here." Harry said.
Ginny looked at him with cold, penetrating eyes before turning around and walking into the house as a sleepily Ron cam walking by.
"You alright mate?" Ron asked.
"Yeah, fine." Harry replied.
"Don't mind Ginny alright. She's going through a lot of things right now." Ron said, having been giving a similar speech by his mother.
"Nah no worries." Harry said with a tinge of sadness that Ron did not notice at all.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
"Harry want to play quiditch?" Ron asked coming up to his room where Harry sat on his bed staring with a mad glint at Scrabbers.
"Sure." Harry said shaking himself awake and grabbing his nimbus 2000 and headed downstairs, passing Ginny on his way.
"Hey Ginny want to play quiditch with us?" Harry asked.
Ginny looked at Harry as if he was a three headed dog, "I don't have a broom."
"There must be an old one laying around. Come on it'll be fun. I think we're just gonna fly around, pass the qualffle about." Harry said.
"Come on squirt." Fred said walking in on the convo.
"Charlie's old broom is still in the shed." George said grabbing his sisters arm and dragging her out side.
"You know that was a nice thing of you to do Harry. She hasn't been the same since well last year. Bloody diary, she needs friends and sadly because of that diary she doesn't have many." Fred said running along out side, Harry following.
The rest of the afternoon was spent playing out side and basking in the sun. Harry even tumbled off of his broom and for the first time all summer Ginny Weasley laughed, one of the most beautiful sounds Harry had ever heard.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
"HERMIONE!" Harry yelled waving his arm as he walked with the Weasleys spotting his sister, his aunt and Sirius as Padfoot who pulled out of Zizi's grip and came running over, jumping onto of Harry, licking his face enthusiastically.
"Bad Snuffles!" Hermione said, pulling Sirius off of Harry and pulling her brother up.
"Sorry," Hermione said. "He just gets excited meeting new people." She said giving Sirius a meaningful look as he went around to all the Weasleys.
"Oh hello." Hermione's mother said walking up and joining the group.
"Hello Mrs. Granger," both Ron and Harry said.
"Mum this is Ron Weasley and Harry Potter. That's Ron's family." Hermione said making introductions.
"Oh hello. I'm Molly, how lovely it is to meet you. I've heard so much about your daughter." Molly said.
"The pleasure is all mine. Why don't we all go for a pot of tea? I know this fabulous place in London." Zizi said.
"Oh that sounds wonderful." Molly said with a smile, every one falling into line, well all but the twins who Harry had a sneaky suspicion where up to something and would be proven correct when Percy would come down stairs yelling about his head boy badge.
"Hermione what the bloody hell is that?" Ron asked pointing to the cage under her arm.
"Oh I bought a Cat. His name is Crookshanks isn't he cute?" Hermione asked as the cat tried to lunge out of his cage.
"Just keep the bloody thing away from me and Scrabbers when we get to school." Ron replied as the Gryffindor King and Queen started their age old bickering, something Harry had missed.
"So how has your summer been going boys? Harry I'm glad your alright, those horrid muggles." Hermione said making a face of disgust.
"Never mind it." Harry said as they entered the muggles restaurant and where seated at a very large table, poor Snuffles has to be tied up outside.
"You know I here," said Mr. Weasley in a low voice to Jane Granger, "there is a rumor about saying your daughter is most likely to become Minister of Magic. They say she is the smartest witch to enter Hogwarts since, well for 50 years almost."
"Oh Arthur will you hush." Mrs. Weasley said as she then turned to yell at the twins for slipping something into Ron's soup that turned him blue.
But all in all it had been a good day for every one, even Harry who though could not return with his family got to spend a few short hours.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
It was the last week of summer, Harry knew he'd be returning to Hogwarts soon and he wondered what this year would be like. Sirius was already out of Azkaban, maybe he's get his name cleared this time around. But Harry knew one thing, by the end of the year Wormtail would be in the custody of the Ministry. Till then Harry had already made himself a plan. No more slacking off, he could not believe he let himself get this far.
Of course Harry now was very accomplished in the ways of Muggle fighting, hand to hand combat, sword fighting but he needed to learn more about magic as well as keep himself fit. That is why he had been taking to waking up early every morning and sneaking from the house to run a mile or so. That was till he was found out by none other then Ginny Weasley.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
"Ginny!" Harry said surprised as he walked in from outside through the kitchen to see Ginny Weasley sitting at the table with a warm cup of tea.
"What are you doing up?" they both said in surprise.
"You first." Harry got out quickly.
"I just had a bad dream and couldn't fall back asleep." Ginny replies, "You?"
"I...well I go running in the morning." Harry said. "I like to stretch, after being cramped in a cupboard for half the summer it's a nice change." Harry said.
"Do you know what I dream?" Ginny asked, when receiving to responses from Harry she continued on.
"I see Tom Riddle. But this time he took over, he took me over and I couldn't fight him. And I see you come and fight him but this time he kills you and then he goes after my family, he kills my parents and my brothers and makes me do it, he controls me, I have no choice but to listen." Ginny said, Harry watched as her eyes started to flame with anger and fear.
"You know something Harry. I've been watching you and it seems like you can just prediect things sometimes. Train me, I know you know more then you let on." Ginny asked.
Harry looked at her, how could he say no as he looked at her large chocolate brown eyes and her gleaming red hair.
"It stays between us for now alright?" Harry asked.
"Agreed. When do I start?" Ginny asked.
"When we get to Hogwarts. I um... know of a room we could use alright?" Harry asked.
Ginny nodded and with her cup of tea in her hand left the kitchen, leaving Harry alone.
"Bloody hell." Harry thought, pouring himself his own cup of tea.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
"Now all of you behave yourself!" Mrs. Weasley could be heard yelling at they all boarded the train.
"Every well else is full." Hermione said walking into a compartment that had an
older man sleeping in it, Harry recognized him immediately as Remus Lupin.
"Whose that?" Ron asked as they all took seats.
"R. J. Lupin. He must be the new defense teacher." Hermione said, trying to his her own glee. She had never meant Remus though she had heard so many stories about him.
The door was pulled open, Harry had his wand out in a second when he was meant by a woman with familiar grey eyes.
"Oh I'm sorry. Would you mind making room for me that's my husband you all are sitting with." the woman said with a flicker of mischief in her eyes. Harry saw Hermione looked as shocked as he was feeling.
"Oh how rude I'm Professor Lupin." the woman said closing her eyes that where now green, "and you all are?"
"Hermione Granger, that's Ron Weasley and Harry Potter." Hermione said. "Excuse me but did you just change your eye color?" Hermione then asked.
"No." the woman said changing the subject quickly, looking with a smile on Hermione and Harry.
"I'm going to be assisting this dotter head as your defense teacher." Professor Lupin said with a wicked smile.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
"Why is the train stopping?" Hermione asked, "we're not at Hogwarts yet?"
"Blimey!" Harry yelled in his head as he knew what was coming and wouldn't even be able to defend himself as the lights went out and the area started to get very cold, soon Ginny and Neville joined them in the compartment.
"Alright calm down children." the female Professor Lupin said as the door opened a black creepy, grimy hand started to reach in.
Harry felt dizzy and holding his head he fell to the ground hearing his mother scream to save him, his time with the Dursleys and quickly turning into seeing Snape killing Dumbledore. That was the last thing he saw before he blacked out, hearing Remus sending the dementor away.

Away just out side of Hogwarts in a forest that very few humans dwelt laid an animal sleeping. It one would look at it you would see wet fur right below it's eyes from tears that it had shed little did the animal know that miles away in the same forest dwelt another feeling the same.

"Harry? Harry are you alright?" Hermione asked helping Harry back into his seat. For the rest of the ride Harry sat in silence the rest of the way thinking of what he had seen and what he had saw. But most of all what he heard from Dean, the Lenstragans it was rumored were the pair to excape Azkaban.
