Chapter 7- Auror School

Ginny woke up the next morning, smiling ear to ear. She looked to her left. Harry was sleeping serenely, glasses bent, his chest exposed. She was sure he was not wearing any boxers or trousers. Neither was she. She slowly got out of bed and put her clothes on. She had just had the best night of her life.

She picked up Harry's clothes (she had thrown them about the room like they had done her a personal wrong) and placed them on the bed.

She then kissed Harry. He woke with a start, but soon calmed-Ginny's kisses tasted like sweet strawberries.

"Morning." He said quietly.

"You too." she smiled.

Harry changed into his clothes and kissed her to say goodbye. He then crept silently into Ron's room. No one was there.

He went to Hermione's. Ron was lying on the floor, shirt off (trousers on, thankfully), mouth askew and snoring like a hippo. Hermione, was sleeping peacefully on the bed. The quilt covered up to her chest, but Harry had a good idea of what happened here last night.

Grinning, he went to Ron's room and sat on the springy bed and reflected on last night. Suddenly, Ginny padded into the room, holding another brown letter.

"Thanks." He said as he kissed her cheek.

He opened it and saw it was Kingsley.

Dear Harry,

Sorry to bother you again, but would you, Ron, Hermione and Ginny like to come for Auror training induction? It would really help those of you who wanted to be an Auror.

Please reply as soon as possible-my head coach nearly fainted when he heard he may be teaching Harry Potter!

Yours Sincerely,

Kingsley Shacklebot

Minister For Magic

Not worrying about this yet, he glanced at his watch on the bedside table. It read six-thirty.

"What time does your mum wake up?"

"Around seven-thirty. Why?"

"Do you wanna go to your room and...you know..."

About an hour and a half later, the couple stepped downstairs.

"Did you sleep well?" asked Mrs Weasley.

Ginny glanced at Harry.

"Best night of my life."

"Me too." Said Harry, knowingly.

At around eleven, Harry told Hermione, Ron and Ginny about the letter.

"So you interested?"

They all agreed, and left for the Ministry.

As they entered, they were greeted by several hundreds of well-wishers.

Battling through the crowd, they made it to the Minister's office, where Kingsley sat.

"Ah, you all made it! Well, I'll take you to your training. And don't worry Harry. The witch who I said almost fainted-well, did!" he spoke, slowly and softly.

He led them to a large hall, where there seemed to be now movement.

Suddenly, in front of them, apparated a six foot tall, muscled, light brown-skinned person. He had short, jet black hair but the most distinguishing feature about him was light blue, non-pupiled eyes.

"Well, I never thought I'd see you." He spoke in a deep voice.

He strode over to shake Harry's hand firmly. "Harry Potter." He smiled.

He shook the other's hands and used his wand to turn the place into a huge rainforest, complete with animal noises.

"I'm Jay. I'm your tutor. But I should doubt I could help you all. I mean, I'm only nineteen myself."

Another, shorter person entered, a young woman. She had brown hair and was okay looking. She blushed at the sight of some of the most famous wizards of all time.

"This is my helper, Nadine."

"Hi." She squeaked.

"Right. So I trust you know how to duel. Who would like to go first?"

"I will." Spoke Ginny confidently.

"Gin, are you sure?" said Harry, protectively.

"Don't worry I won't harm her." Laughed Jay.

Ginny strode over to him. She barely reached up to his chin. They both bowed to each other and then walked to a different end of the forest clearing. Harry started sweating.

Hermione chewed on her fingernails. "Whenever you're ready." Said Jay, calmly.

"EXPELLIARMUS!" screamed Ginny. A red streak of light erupted from her wand. But Jay swished his wand high then back down to earth. As the red light was about to hit him, an electrical bubble came, absorbed the spell, and disappeared.

"What was that?" asked Harry.

"Protego.Why?"

"What was the electricity thing?"

"Oh, I'm an elemental-I control static. So," he turned to Ginny "you're a little rusty. Let's try it again."

Ginny shouted once more "EXPELLIARMUS!" Jay tried to block, but she was better this time. Jay took the hit and was knocked off balance. He got up again.

"Excellent-Ginny, is it?"

"Yes, and thanks." She said, walking back to the others, proudly.

He tested the others till they knocked him down. Ron had to have four tries!

Finally, he came to Harry.

"I'm sure you're fine at disarming me. How about we test your shield spell?"

"O.K." said Harry, walking to opposite him.

He flicked his wand lazily and it shot out a small line of electricity. It was too quick for Harry. He felt a small electric shock.

"One more time." Said Jay.

He did it again, but Harry blocked it successfully.

"Right. Now let me see your wands."

They all handed their wands to Jay, who gave them to Nadine to inspect.

"Are any of you an Animag-" suddenly, Nadine screeched "Crucio!" and Jay was on the floor writhing silently in pain.

The group ran over to stop her, but she said "stop, or he dies!" They did so.

"You fools. My father was a Death Eater-but he was killed. But now I can get my revenge..." she cackled crazily.

She suddenly contorted and made retching noises. It was full moon.

She dropped her wand, but turned into a huge, snarling werewolf. She started forward. Looking at Ginny, she lunged forward.

"NO!" Harry cried, but as he stepped in front of her, wand-less, it backed handed him across the room into a tree.

Ginny cowered under it, knowing death was near. Ron and Hermione tried to attack it, but it hit them away. But then, a huge thundering came, and a greyish-black massive object streaked past Ginny, smashing the werewolf away.

In front of Ginny, stood an angry four metre long rhino, which was Jay, had a metre and a half long horn. He fought off the werewolf's claws, smashing it with its horns.

Ginny ran to get her wand. She recognised it and plucked it from the ground.

Ginny shouted "Impendita!" and froze the werewolf, but it was such a magically powerful creature that it was only still for a few seconds-the rhino was gone.

But she heard Jays voice-"Shoot it with water! Now!"

She did not understand why, but she pointed her wand at the charging beast and shouted "Aguamenti!" a jet of clear water hit the werewolf in the face, drenching it. Jay jumped down from above, but Nadine formed in front of him, wand drawn.

"Destructacus!" she screamed.

As a purple jet hit Jay and sent him flying, he shot her with a streak of electricity. He static hit the water and Nadine exploded in flames.

Leaving the flame-ball in the centre of the room, Ginny ran over to Harry, and shook his unconscious form. Tears spread down her face, but she heard him breathing. She ran over to check on Ron and Hermione, but they had already got up and were shaking the dirt off.
