Chapter Two: my sister organizes the skeletons in her closet

"What am I gonna do?" I whine to Uncle harry and ginny, "we are all out of wolfsbane potion and it takes Forever to make"

"Professor Potio probably has a back up stash of it when you get to hogwarts, ask Mcgonagal to go see him"

"won't she get suspicious of me being a werewolf" I sniffed

"Oh, she kind of already knows, most of the professors do" Harry said cautiously

"How? Did you tell them? why? now they're all gonna-" I started rambling

"we didn't tell them," Ginny interrupted calmly. "Your dad used to be a teacher there, and he is still remembered" Harry bowed his head and took a shaky breath.

"I'll ask Professor Potio when I get to hogwarts" I said, then I rushed up to my room to hide my tears, I've already cried for my parents enough.

I finished packing up and went downstairs. "Uncle Harry! Aunt Ginny!" I called, "I'm finished packing" I tried again. I walked into Esmerays room, she wasn't there "Esmeray?" I called, I heard a thump in the closet then Esmeray and Ramona peaked their heads out, "why are you guys in the closet?" I asked, momentarily forgetting about Harry and Ginny.

"Nothing we were-" Ramona paused

"re-organizing" Esmeray stepped in,

"Ok…" I said "do you know were Harry and Ginny are?" I asked

"did you check their bedroom" Esmeray asked "I'll go check" I said "and you have black lipstick on your face" I said, I turned away before they could see my smirk, both Esmeray and Ramona were bright red.

I found Harry in his room fiddling with a snitch. "What's that?" I asked from the door,

Harry jumped "Oh, Hi Teddy" He looks down at the Tiny winged gold sphere "It's the snitch I caught in my first ever Quidditch game"

"why is there writing on it?" I walked over and read it; 'I open at the close' "what does that mean?" I ask

"There's writing on it because Dumbledore engraved it" Harry said "watch this" He put the snitch up to his lips,

"what in Merlin's beard" I started, The snitch popped open.

"Woah" I said, I peeked inside; a small black rock sat nestled between the two halves. "I didn't know snitches open" I said,

"They have touch memory, that means the first person to catch them can open it" Harry says

"yeah I knew that I just didn't know they opened, you must have caught it with" I say

"yeah I did" Harry said awkwardly.

"What is this rock?" I asked

"well…" Harry hesitated "it's called the Resurrection stone" he said "you might have heard of it from-"

but I interrupted him "The tales of beetle the bard! oh my gosh that was real! I can't believe this! Does that mean all the other stories were real to-"

"slow down teddy!" Harry interjects "as far as any witch or wizard knows the tale of the three brothers is the only story that is true"

"Wait... if that is the resurrection stone... can I bring back my parents?" I asked

"No- Teddy, I'm sorry you can't bring them back," he sets the snitch down "remember the tale; the girl the second brother brought back was not happy in the human world, and we wouldn't want to do that to your parents" Harry says, he gives me a warm hug

"Oh ok" I say "anyway" I said to cover my tears "I wrote my acceptance letter to Hogwarts but I don't know how to send it"

"Just bring it to me, I'll send it with our owl" Harry said

"Ah, of course" I said and headed out the door, "by the way, I walked in on Ramona and Esmeray and I'm 97% sure they were kissing"

"Oh merlins beard" Harry whispers.

I run back to my room, with the resurrection stone in hand.
