Ashes of a Phoenix

The rest of the summer was kind of tense at the Burrow. Remus continued their lessons but avoided talking to the children at any other time. Sirius dropped by to see Harry but his arguments with Snape were so virulent that Harry sometimes wished that Sirius was still in his animagi form.
All of that aside this had been Harry's greatest summer ever. He had spent the least amount of time yet with the Dursleys. Harry had called them to explain where he was but the house had been in an uproar. Apparently Dudley was upset that his dog had run away.
Tonight was the last night before the fall term started. Sirius had come to sleep over one last night before Harry left. He was now running around the room as Snuffles while Ginny tried to brush him. Even Remus seemed to be in a pleasant mood. Ron was telling him about their third year when they had been sure that Snape was trying to poison him.
" Well don't discount the idea yet," he laughed," if I drop dead at the train station tomorrow I want you to go straight to the Ministry and turn him in.'
Harry looked around carefully now was the perfect time. He slipped quietly upstairs and walked into the kitchen. He carefully opened the cabinet wincing as it creaked and stuck the brown bag inside. He then hurriedly crept back to his room before he could be missed.
He didn't have anything to worry about. Fred and George werte demonstrating some of the new products from their joke shop. "watch out Harry," said George.
A flying marshmallow chicken flew towards his head and started pecking at his mouth trying to get inside.
"Pretty good,huh" said Fred. " Good thing I like marshmallow fluff ," said Harry around a still twitching chicken peep. " You should have seen it before Fred and I figured out we needed to package them individually," said George," I nearly choked to death on six of the pesky birds all wanting to be first in line for digestion." The party continued until dawn and everyone slept where they fell.
"Rise and shine," said Mrs. Weasley perkily. There were some initial groans but soon everyone smelled breakfast and they ate the pancakes as though they had never seen the bags of candy they had gone through the night before. Before they knew it Harry, Hermione and the Weasleys were waving goodbye from the window of the Hogwarts express. Mrs,. Weasley stood by the platform drying her face on the burgundy scarf she had found by the coffee that morning. Although it had no note attached , the gold letters MW were enough to let her know that she had a new Weasley son and that she would never let him drift away like Percy had.
