The Phelytone call.

The following day Harry and Ron woke up early again to go to Auror Training. As today's training started an hour later for reasons unknown to Harry and Ron they arrived ten minutes before nine. As expected Kingsley was in his office getting ready. After an apology from Kingsley for not being able to do the training the day before all three of them headed to the ninth floor to the same room next to the Department of Mysteries.

"Ok, so we went over Concealment and Disguise two days ago." both Harry and Ron nodded in agreement. "Therefore, today, we're going to go over Stealth and Tracking. I hope this is the last training because we need you as soon as possible in the department. Harry, I am going to give you a few more days to read that book on the Fidelius Charm and I expect you'll be able to perform it by the time you become the head of the department." Harry nodded but at the same time felt a lot of pressure put on him. He wasn't very happy with being made the Head of Department. He was sure there were more experienced, and more powerful Aurors in the Ministry that would want to do the job and would probably do it better than him. But just because he was Harry Potter people always thought that he should be the leader, and with his new defeat of the Dark Lord everyone thought of him as the most powerful wizard in the world.

"Stealth and Tracking are fairly complex so it's going to take you a while to completely understand. The first thing you have to have in mind is the definitions of these two words. Stealth is a secret, clandestine, or a surreptitious procedure. Tracking is the act of leaving a mark or succession of marks left by something that has passed. We'll start with Tracking because it's easier to understand. Now, I have heard from some sources that when you were teaching Dumbledore's Army, Harry, you were using enchanted coins to communicate, right?"

"That was Hermione's idea!" said Harry.

"Yes, smart girl. But it is true, right?" asked Kingsley.

"Yes, we were using coins." answered Harry. Harry felt a jolt of pain. That had been his fifth year at Hogwarts, which meant that Sirius, Dumbledore, Lupin, and Tonks were still alive then. He pushed the thoughts away because he didn't want to seem weak to Kingsley.

"Well, that is a form of tracking. As Aurors we need to be able to communicate with each other without becoming suspicious. As you very well know, Death Eaters were using a fairly clever way of tracking which was the Dark Marks. I was also thoroughly impressed by the coins that Hermione came up with."

They spent a few hours discussing Stealth and Tracking by the end of which both Harry and Ron were each given a book on these two important subjects. Kingsley also gave them a few days to finish them. By they time they got to the Burrow Mrs. Weasley was already done with lunch. Ginny was in the kitchen also helping her mother. When she saw Harry enter through the door she hurried over to him and gave him a brief kiss on the lips.

"He kept you longer this time." said Ginny.

"Well, he had to explain a few more complicated things." answered Harry.

"When do you boys start work?" asked Mrs. Weasley.

"As soon as we finish reading this book he gave us." said Ron and showed his mother the book he had gotten from Kingsley.

"Stealth and Tracking, your father told me once that this was one of the disciplines you were thought if you wanted to be an Auror." said Mrs. Weasley.

"By the way mom, have you heard from dad and Hermione yet? They said they were going to use the phelytone to tell us if they got there safe." asked Ron. Harry remembered how a few days before they had left they had installed a telephone at the Burrow so that Mr. Weasley and Hermione could call from Australia to tell them how everything went.

"No dear, they haven't called yet. I expect they'll call sometime around dinner tonight."

"But what is something happened to them. They should have been there by now." said Ron very impatiently.

"Oh, Ron! Get a grip on yourself" said Ginny "I'm sure they're fine. Don't worry, when Hermione is back she'll give you a good snog to make up for the time she was gone." That made Ron ever more impatient.

George came a few minutes later. He seemed to be much happier since he had started working at the joke shop. After lunch all four of them went outside to play some two on two quiditch. It was Harry and Ginny against Ron and George. They played with and enchanted soccer ball that Mr. Weasley had found the day before. Ron and Ginny were the Keepers and George and Harry were playing chasers. Ron was doing a very good job as a keeper because after half an hour Harry could only score twice. Ginny was doing ever better though because George hadn't succeeded into scoring at all. By the end of two hours Harry and Ginny had won with 80 points to 50.

Harry was in a very good mood. He hadn't remember being so happy in a very long time. He felt like he could produce a full bodied Patronus right now without much concentration. To add to his good mood Ron and George had left him and Ginny alone in the backyard. Ginny didn't wait very long before she was on top of him, kissing him passionately making him collapse in the warm grass. He felt as this had been the best day of his life since he had defeated Voldemort. Him and Ginny sat themselves under a nearby tree so they would be in the shadow. After a good long snogging session they fell asleep, Ginny with her head on his shoulder. By the time they woke up it was dark outside. It wasn't very long before Mrs. Weasley called them all inside.

"Ron, Ginny, George, Harry! Arthur is on the phelytone!" shouted Mrs. Weasley. They all ran inside the house.

"HELLO! MOLLY DEAR! IT'S ME ARTHUR!" Mr. Weasley was yelling.

"It's ok Mr. Weasley!" came Hermione's voice "You don't need to shout, I'm sure they can hear you."

"Oh, sorry! I just thought that, being such a big distance they wouldn't hear me. Hello! Molly dear, can you hear me?" he said more quietly.

"Yes! How are you? Did you get there safely?" asked Mrs. Weasley.

"Yes, we got here safely. I'll tell you all about airplanes when I get back. I have to tell you that Muggles are very intelligent. I don't think we give them enough credit. The pilot let me inside his cabin and showed me what all the buttons did. He explained to me how airplanes stay up. And hear this, he said that he could figure I was a wizard and he said that he knows Kingsley and that his daughter just got a letter from Hogwarts. Can you believe it dear?"

"Oh, how wonderful!" said Mrs. Weasley.

"Mom let me talk to Hermione!" said Ron. Mrs. Weasley gave Ron the phone.

"Hermione! Are you all right?" asked Ron.

"I'm fine. If everything works out we might come back a day early." said Hermione. At hearing it Ron smiled really big.

"How's everyone else?" asked Hermione.

"We're all fine. Me and Harry went to the last Auror training today."

"That's great. Well, we have to go. We'll call you after we see my parents. Say hi to everyone!"

"All right, bye then! Good luck" said Ron.

"Thank you. Bye!"
