Lucy Weasley: June 22nd, 2006

Barely a week passed before the next Weasley grandchild burst onto the scene, setting the record for the closest birth dates between two of the grandchildren (and even that would be challenged soon enough!). Minister of Magic Audrey Weasley was enjoying her second term and watching the news as candidates began to declare their intent to succeed her in the election the following year.

This time, when she went into labor, the Auror Task Force was even more ready than they had been the last time. The Minister was rushed to St. Mungo's, but not before she signed an executive order giving the powers of the Ministry over to her Deputy Minister, Dennis Creevey, until after the baby had been born. Percy, who had been visiting with the Minister of Magic in Ireland, was flown in by private Portkey to join his wife.

When the baby was finally born, it was announced that yet another girl had arrived into the Weasley family. All the family fawned over the new arrival. Audrey had named her Lucy.

"I'm just curious, dear. Why did you name her that?" Mrs. Weasley wanted to know. Audrey shrugged.

"I've just always loved the name. And coincidentally, Percy did too."

Everyone rejoiced (though Arthur mumbled something about there better being more boys to challenge the female regime taking over the next generation).
