CHAPTER 12: SECOND DAY AT THE BURROW.

(Isa's voice)

I smiled as I put on some robes to train a bit in the morning. Even if I was having a weekend off school at a family friend's house I had my duties to take. And one was flying for training for professional Quiddich.

I was walking down the stairs when something hit the window and I saw an owl hitting the window. I opened it and it perched on the kitchen, smiling I went out of the house.

"Accio Broom. Ah… good day for a little training." I said smiling while my broom came to me. "Let's begin flying a bit." I added kicking the ground.

Then I went off flying.

(Bill's voice)

I was up due to work, even when I was back my parent's home I had to keep being ready for an owl asking for advice. It was still a bit early but I heard noises upstairs, as I was at the living-room I didn't mark who was doing it, when I had to look was when I began hearing soft noises coming down the stairs and then, when I laid a bit backwards to see who was I saw a red haired with yellow trousers and red and yellow stripped woollen sweater. Then we heard another owl hitting the window and then she opened the door and let it get in before getting out and call her broom.

"So she is going to play…" I muttered as another owl arrived for me. "Hum! I suppose this will be funny after all."

(George's voice)

Fred and I woke up nearly on the same time and we had the same idea. After the bad night tricks frustrated by Harry and Isa who managed to cut our plans, we decided to wake the guys and her up and go for the second round.

Chas, Chas.

We appeared just over her bed trying to wake her up but when I went to cover her mouth so as her not to wake up everyone else, I found out she was not there.

Then I told my brother and we appeared down at the kitchen.

"I can't believe it." Fred said. "She is gone!"

"Where can she be?!" I added shaking my head.

"If you had got down half an hour earlier, you would have seen her walking out of here into the field up the hill." Bill said at our back from the living-room door. "You know mum doesn't approve you appearing here unless you were far and on a wizard safe place."

"You don't tell her we did this and we don't tell her you sneaked yesterday night with Isa to the barn." Fred said.

"I just wanted to speak with her." He said.

"Yes, to learn foreign languages." I added joking.

"Do not say it again when there's the risk of someone overhearing us, idiot." He said. "She will be up the hill."

Then he walked back to where he was. So we followed him.

"Sorry, we were joking." I apologized. "We were looking for her to give us a second match. Wanna join?"

"I know, but Fleur or Gabrielle would not notice the difference on that." He said. "And about the match… I'll join you if you find someone else."

"I bet Charlie, Ron and Harry would join if we tell them." I said then.

"Then we will wait till they wake up." He told us. "We will get there when they wake up, right?"

"Right, ok." Fred said. "See you then."

He then waved at us while we went out of the house to look for her. Bill said she would be at the near hill practising, but when we arrived we didn't noticed her.

"I think he mistook the place." I said.

"Yep, this is emptier than a Slithering's brain." Fred agreed.

Anyway, suddenly we saw a blue green tennis ball flying straight towards us. Anyway, when we were about repelling it we saw a shadow coming towards us and hit it far from us.

"Sorry." An upside down Isa said hanging from her legs at her broom while the other green ball raced towards her back. "What are you doing here?"

"We came to ask you for a match." I said. "Watch out with…"

She didn't even move too much, she just curled herself a bit backwards with flexibility and hit the ball far.

"Sorry, my balls charmed for me to avoid them." She said. "About the match… one second, please."

Then she raced after something and when she went next to us she asked us to pass her a basket from the ground.

Fred looked for it and when we noticed it we threw up to the sky and she held it hanging it from her back.

She raced after a blue ball that ran from her and when she finally crossed a red one she held it and put it on the basket. Then the blue ones went to hit her and she managed to trick them and catch them too, from the same moment she pressed them they stopped fighting and became the colour tennis balls they were so she put them at the basket.

Then the only one missing was the little blue one. She looked for it for a while.

"Did you think on something concrete for the match?" She asked flying down.

"Shouldn't you chase the missing ball?" We asked.

She shook her head.

"I can't find it so easily." She said. "I'll get it when I can see it."

And truly, a while after, when my brothers and Harry were climbing up the hill she seemed to notice the ball and chased it to get it seconds later. Then she held it up to show us and flied down to land next to us as she put the ball back in her bag.

"Wow, it's really… mistakable with the sky!" I said.

"What's the point on a blue snitch then?" Harry said.

"Making it harder to find it while it flies." She said softly tapping the box with her wand and making them all stop moving. "So, they mentioned something about a second match to give them the chance of winning."

"Yes, same teams as yesterday." Ron said.

"And as we are a person less I suggest you handing us my brother." Fred said.

"Sure." Bill said. "You are not going to play better for that."

"But then the keeper of our team can leave the hop and chase the quaffle too." I said.

"Done." Harry said shaking hands with them and then me.

"Try to make us all easy, right?" I told Isa joking.

"I'll give you a little advantage." She said taking something from her pocket. "Right or left?"

"Left." Ron said. "Why?"

"Left eye." She said covering her eye with a patch she took from her pocket. "See? A little advantage. I lose deep perception."

"Bigmouth…" I said joking.

(Harry's voice)

I couldn't believe it. Isa was in the opposite team and she covered one of her eyes to give us advantage over her and keep chanced balanced. And even with that little handicap, Charlie, Bill and she were just the perfect team; totally coordinated it was hard to take the quaffle from them, even when we were three chasers, a keeper and a beater against just three chasers.

When they saw we had taken the quaffle, she speeded against their hoop and covered it so it was difficult to mark them.

Anyway, at the end of the little match, it was plain clear who had won.

"Five points two and we won." Bill said.

"We make a good team." Charlie said surrounding Isa and him with his arms. "Funny but I'd have sworn there was a time..."

"A time that Ron nearly stopped your goal by the skin of his teeth." Isa said fast.

I knew he was not wanting to say so, I could have sworn that there were some moments that she closed her eyes to get the quaffle or to pass it. As if she was playing blind.

During breakfast, Ginny went angry at us all for not having told her about the mini-match and have told Isa.

"You are not that good." Fred said.

"What they meant to say…" Charlie said trying to sound politer. "Is that she was already awake and you were still sleeping so it was just matter of luck we could count her there to play with us."

"Yes, we would never dare to leave you aside on that." Ron said trying to sound true.

Anyway, that just made Ginny frown the same showing she still doubted of them. As breakfast went on, I realised Charlie and Isa chatted vividly about something and they laughed.

"Look at her." Hermione said. "It's funny she can get along so well with both us and the elders."

"I think that's a bit weigd of a gigl. Don't you think so, Haggy?" Gabrielle asked me.

"I think that's good." I said. "I mean… we also get along well with all of them."

"Yep, she is friend even of Malfoy." Ron said looking at her too.

"Well…" Hermione said. "I don't think she is too close to him. Better said the other way round. And as she is so nice to everyone then she is nice to him too."

"So she also is nice to rats and snakes." Fred said.

"Can you imagine her kissing Malfoy?" George said faking it.

"George we are eating." Ginny told him off. "Don't talk disgusting things."

"They are talking about job, if you want to know." Mrs. Weasley said.

"Work?" Ron said. "What kind of work? He works at Romania with the dragons."

We then shrugged.

"Oh." Hermione then said. "Remember the eggs hatching at Hagrid's hut? She didn't had chance of speak to him, maybe they are doing it."

"Ok, now the Ginny help me with the kitchen, ok?" Mrs. Weasley said clapping her hands while all of us ended breakfast.

"I'll do bedrooms." Isa offered.

"No, no." Fleur said. "We women will take cage of it."

(Isa's voice)

That day there was nothing important to comment other than we all got lot of fun, that I didn't had a single second of resting and that for first time since this summer, I really felt as in family.

I also met Tonks, Lupin and Mad Eye Moody; but that's matter of another full chapter.

(I hope you have liked it. I will possibly keep on with this weekend on a future. If you want me to. For the moment, next chapter I'll kept on from the point that some months have passed.)
