Harry and Ginny Apparated to the Burrow, only this time Ginny was the one to Apparate, seeing as she was the only one who knew where the house was.
"Oh! Harry!" Mrs. Weasley cried when she saw him. She hugged him in a very motherly way. "I suppose you don't recognize me do you?"
Harry shook his head.
"Oh! You poor boy!" Mrs. Weasley said. "I guess we'll have to introduce everyone all over again, wont we?"
She started going around, introducing Bill and Charlie, Tonks and Lupin (who were engaged!), Fred and George, and Ron and Hermione, although Harry had already re-met them.
Then Mrs. Weasley saw Ginny in her tattered clothes. "Ginny! What have you been doing?"
"I had Auror lessons, Mum. Remember?"
Mrs. Weasley was about to ask her what she had been doing that her clothes got so ripped up when Bill interrupted her.
"Fleur!" he called.
"Vat is it, my love?" Harry heard someone ask from above.
"Harry's here!"
"Oh!" Fleur exclaimed.
She ran down the stairs to go meet Harry. She was a very pretty woman, with long silver-like hair.
"Oh! 'Arry!" Fleur said. " Eet is so great zu be seeing you again!"
She hugged Harry, and then let go to reveal a teenage girl behind her who was just as pretty as she was.
"Gabrielle, meet "Arry!" Fleur told the girl.
"'Arry Potter!" Gabrielle exclaimed. "Ever since zou zaved me in zi triwizerd zournament, I 'ave bin vanzing zu meet zou again!"
"Well," Harry said, a little self conscious, "I am pleased to meet you as well, though I don't remember saving anyone."
"Oh!" Gabrielle turned to her sister and started speaking very fast in French about how polite and handsome Harry was.
Harry blushed and spoke back to her in fluent French.
Gabrielle turned very pink, and everyone looked at Harry, startled.
"You speak French, Harry?" Hermione asked.
"Yeah…" Harry said. "I was there for about a year, so – "
"Oh!" Ron said. "That's where you went!"
"Yeah…"
"Hey, Harry," Fred called, coming from the kitchen holding a platter full of custard creams. "Want to try one? It's our specialty."
"No!" Hermione, Ron, and Ginny screamed in unison as Harry reach for a "custard" cream.
Harry looked at them confused.
"Oh, Fred!" Mrs. Weasley said. "The poor boy's been here barely a minute and your trying to poison him!"
"Poison?" Harry asked.
Ginny laughed. "They're not poisoned, Harry. They're just not really 'custard' creams. More like 'canary' creams."
"Awww!" George said. "You just have to ruin our fun."
"Huh?" Harry looked confused.
"Zei zurn zou inzu canaries!" Gabrielle said delightedly. "Zei are abzoluzely zlpenzed!"
"See," George said as Gabrielle ate a canary cream and turned into a canary. "At least someone appreciates our work."
Harry laughed.
"Come into the kitchen, Harry, dear," Mrs. Weasley said. "You'll find real food there." She shot Fred and George angry looks.
Harry followed Mrs. Weasley and the others into the kitchen. Someone was already seated at the table. He had a crooked nose, and long, greasy black hair.
"You!" Harry took out his wand, pointing it at none other than Severus Snape.
AN: Thanks so much for your reviews. I just started this Fic, but I'm so excited that about it that I'll constantly be adding chapters. Check it out soon. I should have another one out by the weekend, because I already know hat I'm going to write about. I'll do flashbacks for when Harry was in France in the next few chapters. As always, please review!
New Author's Note: So, I've gotten this far with some changes in grammar, etc. I'll fix the next chapters in the next couple of days (hopefully). But if there are still tons of mistakes in the next chapters, just keep in mind that I haven't checked those yet, and I never had a beta – so that's my excuse!
