The now twelve year old Alexis Halliwell, ducked under the table as Piper accidentally blew up a vase.
"Piper!" shouted Alexis as she crawled from under the table, "Will you calm down!"
The last two months were the same as always wake up, hang out with Phoebe because she didn't have a job, fight demons, have your powers evolve to the point of you couldn't scream for the risk of blowing up stuff (in piper's case) finding out your sister didn't vanquish a demon, because she fallen in love with him.
"That thing just appears out of nowhere," Piper replied
"Dobby is sorry, Dobby just came to warn Alexis Halliwell not to go back to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry this year like Dobby did with Harry Potter." a strange creature stated. "I'm Dobby the House-Elf."
Alexis knelt down next to the House-Elf. "Why are you warning me and Harry Potter?"
"There is a plot, a plot to make most terrible things happen." Dobby replied.
"What terrible things? Who's plotting them," Alexis asked
Dobby gritted his teeth, "Can't say."
"Okay, okay. I get it." Alexis stated. "I have to go to to Hogwarts, I need to be there to help Harry and its the only place I've got friends."
"Friends that don't write to Alexis Halliwell?" Dobby asked.
"What? How do you know my friends haven't been writing to me?" Alexis asked as she felt her temper fray just somewhat.
"Alexis Halliwell mustn't be angry with Dobby. Dobby hoped if Alexis Halliwell thought her friends forgotten her..." Dobby stated backing up from and angry Alexis. "Alexis Halliwell might not want to back to school."
"You did this to Harry Potter too didn't you!" exclaimed Alexis as she rushed for the letters that had her name on the. "Give me those."
"No!" Shouted Dobby as he ran off. Alexis changed forms, her tiger doubled in size as she grew over the holiday break. She pounced on Dobby and hissed at him. She backed away from him when she saw tears leaking out of his eyes.
Charging back, she grabbed him by the collar. "You forget Dobby, my family aren't Muggles, nothing you can do will make them shocked."
Dobby handed over the letters and disappeared.
Carmela orb in then, "What's with the mess here?"
"some house elf just showed up and didn't want me to return to Hogwarts this year." Alexis explained, as she began to open one of her letters from Ron. "Ron wants me to spend the last month of vacation with his family, and I can share his sister's room."
"i was just about to suggest that, Harry is there as well." Carmela replied.
"I guess you could, Carmela same as last year right. You will look at for her, won't you?" Prue asked as she just walked into the kitchen,
Carmela nodded.
The following day after Alexis packed her things got her trunk fully of her uniforms, her book of shadows. Packed away some normal clothes so she wouldn't have to wear her uniform for the last few days of summer.
Carmela came and orb them and Snowdrop the familiar to the Weasley family's home it was early and on the 31st of July, Harry's birthday.
They watched as a car landed and drove into the driveway.
"Harry, Ron, Fred, George!" exclaimed Alexis as she ran to meet them, she tackled Harry and Ron in a hugged.
"why didn't you answer my letter asking you to stay here?" Ron asked as soon as he could breathe again.
"Because I just got your letter yesterday." Alexis giggled. "I came as soon as my sisters came me permission."
She finally looked around and noticed they were on a farm. There was a duck pond, and pigs and everything you could imagine a farm being.
Fred opened the door and they snuck in. well Carmela and Alexis didn't seeing as they had permission to be here.
"Come on," Fred whispered motioning with his hand for them to stay quiet,
Alexis and Harry looked around there were pots scrubbing themselves.
"think it will be alright if we had some?" George asked in a whisper as he reached for some muffins.
"Yeah, Mum will never know." Fred replied.
Alexis and Harry walked into the living room and looking around,
"Its not much, but it's home." Ron stated in between a bit of a muffin.
"I think it's brilliant." Harry replied.
"It almost feels like I'm back home." Alexis stated.
A woman came down the stairs. "Where have you been?"
Alexis jumped back in surprise as the woman turned to Harry and her.
"Harry, how wonderful to see you, Dear." the woman greeted then hugged Harry then repeated the same hug to Alexis, "And you must be Alexis Halliwell, I'm very glad to meet a Charmed One. Ron has told me many things about you."
Alexis glared at Ron. "All good I hope,"
then the woman turned back to her children, Alexis figured out she was Mrs. Weasley, "Beds empty. No note. Car gone. You could have died. You could have been seen. Of course I don't blame you, Harry, dear or you Alexis, because you just got here."
"They were starving him, Mum. There were bars on his widow." Ron explained.
"Well, you best hope I don't put bars on your window, Ronald Weasley." Mrs. Weasley replied, then turned and smiled at both Carmela, who was silent, Harry and Alexis. "Come on, Harry, Alexis, time for a spot of breakfast."
"I'm not really suppose to eat on the job," Carmela replied but sat down after the glare she got from Mrs. Weasley, "But in this case, my fellow Elders can shove their rules up their noses."
Mrs. Weasley or Molly as she was known by Carmela, went around serving breakfast, "Here we are, Harry. Now, tuck in. That's it there we go"
a red haired girl came around the corner. "Mummy, have you seen my jumper?"
"Yes, dear, it was on the cat." Molly answered.
The girl's eyes got real wide as she notice Harry sitting there.
"Hello," Greeted Harry
The girl then ran off,
"What did I do?" Harry asked
"Made a girl run off?" Alexis replied.
"Ginny, She's been talking about you all summer. A bit annoying, Really." Ron explained
"Morning, Weasleys." a man greeted as he entered the house.
"Morning, Dad." the Weasley children replied.
"What a night, nice raids. Nine!" complained the man.
"Raids?" Harry and Alexis asks.
"Dad works in the Ministry of Magic, in the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts Office. Dad loves Muggles thinks They're fascinating." Ron explained.
"Well, now." Mr. Weasley states as he sat down then turned to look at Harry, Alexis, and Carmela. "And who are you?"
"Sorry, sir. I'm Harry. Sir. Harry Potter."
"I'm Alexis Halliwell."
"Carmela Brooks. I'm a Elder, I work up there," Carmela greeted then pointed up to the ceiling. "The heavens really."
"Good Lord, are you really?" Arthur asked. "Well, Ron's told us all about you, of course. When did they get here?"
"This morning, your sons flew that enchanted car of yours to Surrey and back last night." Molly answered.
"Did you really? How did it go?" Arthur asked.
Molly smacked him on the shoulder,
"I mean—That was very wrong indeed, boys. Very wrong of you." Arthur corrected himself
"Why didn't you call me. I would have gotten you out of there?" Carmela answered.
"My aunt and uncle would have found it strange if I called for someone without using the phone," Harry answered.
Carmela nodded, "okay, I'll accept that."
"Now, Harry, Alexis, You must know all about Muggles. Tell me, what exactly is the function of a rubber duck?" Arthur asked.
Alexis nearly choked on her eggs, Harry didn't know what to say, they turned when a sound of wings came though the window,
"Well, that'll be Errol with the post," Molly stated.
Errol flew into the window while another owl flew into the open pane of glass,
"Kuari!" Greeted Alexis,
"Fetch it, will you, Percy, Please?" Molly asked.
Carmela stood up and got the letter from Kuari, since she wouldn't let it go when Percy tried to take it.
"Look, it's our Hogwarts letters. They've sent us Harry's as well." Percy informed them before handing out the letters
"Dumbledore must know you're here. Doesn't miss a trick, that man." Arthur stated
Alexis read her letter, it said where to catch the train on September first. But there was also a list of new books,

"No. this lot won't come cheap. The Spell books alone are very expensive." George stated.
"We'll manage." Molly stated.
Alexis looked up at Carmela, "What I thought I had you for a teacher?"
"You do, but I decided that the first term you will be in a classroom and the second term, It will be Practice," Carmela explained. "sort of like a blended class."
"There's only one place we're going to get all this. Diagon Alley." Molly stated.
"Right." Molly said after breakfast and everyone was dressed. "Here will are, Harry you go first, dear."
"But Harry and Lexi's never traveled by Floo power before, Mum." Ron explained.
"Floo power?" Harry asked.
"You go first, Ron. So that Harry and Lexi can see how it's done. Yes." Molly replied.
Ron nodded and step forward into the fireplace. Harry and Alexis watched as Ron threw some Floo power down and disappeared in green flames.
"You see? It's quite easy, dear. Don't be afraid. Come on." Molly stated to Harry, he walked forward and into the fireplace. "That's right. Now, take your Floo power...Don't forget to speak very, very clearly."
"Diagonally," Harry spoke then disappeared
"What did he say, dear?" Molly asked.
"Diagonally." Arthur replied
"I thought he did." Molly stated.
"I can orb, if you like Lexi" Carmela suggested, seeing as the witch hybrid was hiding behind her. Alexis nodded so fast her head might fall off.
"we'll might you there," Carmela informed before taking Alexis' hand and orbing away.
Carmela and Alexis were looking for Harry seeing as he was lost, they met up with Hermione. They just left the bookstore seeing as there were some many people in line. When Harry and Hagrid came walking up.
"Harry, Hagrid." Greeted Hermione
"Hello, Hermione, Lexi and Carmela." Greeted Hagrid.
"It's so good to see you," Hermione told Harry.
"Its Great to see you too." Harry replied.
"what did you do to your glasses?" Hermione asked. She took out her wand and circled it around, "Oculus reparo."
Harry sighed. "I definitely need to remember that one."
"You'll be alright there, Harry? Right, I'll leave you to it."
'Come on, everyone's been so worried." Hermione stated then they went back into Flourish and Blotts, They walked up to Molly.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, Mr. Gilderoy Lockhart." someone announced.
Alexis watched as a man came walking out, she gagged as everyone was beside themselves.
"Mum fancies him." Ron stated.
A reporter for the Daily Prophet came up and took a picture.
"It can't be. Harry Potter and a Charmed One." Lockhart spoke up for the first time.
"Harry Potter! A charmed one!" the Reporter exclaimed before grabbing both students by the sleeves of their robes and shoving them at Lockhart.
"Nice big smile, Harry. Together we rate the front page." Lockhart stated.
The reporter took a picture of the three of them. Alexis felt really embarrassment about being outed like this.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, what an extraordinary moment this is. When young Harry and Alexis stepped into Flourish and Blotts this morning to purchase my autobiography Magical Me...which, incidentally is currently celebrating its 27th week atop the Daily Prophet bestseller list..they had no idea that they would in fact, be leaving with my entire collected works free of charge." Lockhart explained. He sat down "Now, Ladies?"
"Harry, now give me those, and I'll get them signed for you." Molly took Harry's books away, "All of you wait outside. That's it."
Carmela took Lexi's books to get them signed as well, wearing the same dreamy expression on her face as the other females.
The others finally made it past everyone else.
"I'll bet you loved that didn't you, Potter?" Draco's voice greeted. "Famous Harry Potter. Can't even go into a bookshop without making the front page."
Ginny step forward, "leave him alone."
"Look, Potter. You've got yourself a girlfriend." Draco laughed.
Alexis watched as another Malfoy step up,
"Now, Now, Draco, play nicely. Mr. Potter. Ms. Halliwell; Lucius Malfoy. We meet at last" Lucius greeted. Then pulled Harry to him, "Forgive me, your scar is legend. As of course, is the wizard who gave it to you."
"Voldemort killed my parents," Harry replied.
Draco caught hold of Alexis' arm, "Don't." he hissed.
"I will say something." Alexis hissed back. She yanked her arm away, "Voldemort killed my biological mother, He was nothing more then murderer."
"You two must be very brave to mention his name or very foolish." Lucius replied.
"Fear of a name only increases fear of thing itself." Hermione spoke up.
"And you must be Miss Granger. Yes, Draco has told me all about you. And your parents." Lucius replied then looked over at Hermione's parents who were talking with Mr. Weasley. "Muggles, aren't they?"
Hermione didn't answer.
"Let me see, Red hair, vacant expressions...tatty secondhand book." Lucius took out a book out of Ginny's cauldron, "You must be the Weasleys,"
Mr. Weasley walked up, "Children, It's mad in here. Let's go outside."
"Well, Well, Well, Weasley senior." Lucius greeted.
"Lucius." Mr. Weasley replied back
"Busy time at the Ministry, Arthur. All those extra raids? I do hope they're paying you overtime...but judging by the state of this, I'd say not." Lucius stated then put the book back in the cauldron. Alexis and Harry both noticed an extra book. "What's the use of being a disgrace to the name of wizard, if they don't even pay you well for it?"
"We have a very different idea about what disgraces the name of wizard, Malfoy." Mr. Weasley replied.
"Clearly," Malfoy Sr. agreed. "Associating with Muggles, and I thought your family could sink no lower."
"Where I come from, They're called Innocents." Alexis snapped.
"I'll see you at work." Lucius ignored Alexis' comment,
"See you at school." Draco stated.
