Chapter two: Barry Runs

Barry continued to run down the road with his possessions magically following him, in broad daylight. But he didn't care if any muggles noticed. Half the time they walked around in a dream world...Though admittedly he did get a few looks, he just shrugged them off and told them it was an optical illusion. He slowed down to a brisk walk and decided to read his letters the first one looked offical, he opened it and unfolded the parchment,

Dear Mr. Saucepan,

We have recieved intelligence that a enlargement curse was used at your place of residence this afternoon at fourteen minutes and six seconds past twelve.

As you know, under-aged wizards are not permitted to perform magic outside school, and further spellwork on your part may lead to expulsion from said school.

This is your second warning, and your last. If we find this is brought up again, it will in you no longer attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Enjoy your holidays!

Your sincerely,

Mafalda Hopkirk

Improper Use of Magic Office

Ministry of Magic.

(Also, if it wasn't too much trouble...could you send me your autograph? My daughter is a huge fan!)

Barry looked at his hovering trunk,

"FUCK!" he yelled, everyone in the street turned to look at him. Not knowing what to do he began to run, thinking that if they were going to send him an owl telling him he couldn't return to Hogwarts, then it wouldn't be able to keep up with him. Stupid he knew, but he tried anyway. His trunk bobbed up and down behind him.


"What do mean they can't find him!" Andy cried.

"Well...Andy...He ran from his Aunt and Uncles, they have no idea where he is," Mr. Weasel said calmly, "He should've told his family where he was going, but he didn't so...We lost him."

"Is he going to be expelled?" Andrew asked, sewing Mrs. Weasel's shirt with a needle. The shirt had ripped and Mrs. Weasel's magic controlled (previously electricity) sewing machine had broken and she didn't know how to do it the muggle way. Andrew was the only one who knew how to sew by hand, ("I've never taken interest in such a boring domestic skill!" Mione huffed as everyone asked if she could sew, "Besides it's very sexist of you thinking I'd be the only one who would know! Andrew's muggle born too!").

"No, Cocoa is too worried about his safety to expel him."

"His safety?" Mione repeated, while Andrew said, "Cocoa?"

"We have a killer on the loose," Mr. Weasel said taking a sip of his coffee, "And Fredrick Cocoa, is the Minister of Magic."

Don pulled his eyes away from Jub,

"We do!"

"Don!" Mrs. Weasel scowled, "We've been talking about it at the dinner table for weeks now!"

"We have?" Don scratched his head trying to remember.

"Well, we weren't here," Jub said, "Who is it?"

"Have any of you heard of Serious Killer?"

Mione raised an eyebrow,

"Serious Killer?"

"Well...His real name is Sirius Keller, but it does sound awfully alike doesn't it?"

Several pairs of eyes were rolled.

"Anyway, what did Keller do?"

Mr. Weasel took a deep breath,

"Well, he was a big supporter of You-Know-Who. And the night He disappeared, Keller realised he had nothing, he was already insane and just proved it when he blew up a street of muggles and one wizard."

There was silence, wide eyed silence.

"Shit..." Lemo whispered as Andy let out a low whistle.

"W-Who was the wizard?" Mione asked.

"Peter Pettigree."

The whole kitchen was in silence, the only noise was the ghoul in the attic, small explosions coming from the twins room and the occasional, "Holy shit!"

"A finger," Mr. Weasel continuedholding up his own forefinger, "That's the biggest part of him they could find."

"Well, what's that got to do with B-Barry?" Lemo asked in a quivering voice, dreading the answer.

"He's after him."

More stunned silence, which wasn't broken until Andrew exclaimed excitedly,

"Hey! I get it!"

Everyone looked at him,

"Get what Drew?"

"Sirius/Serious, Keller/Killer!"

They all rolled their eyes again.
