Chapter 117 - Alex - A Little Trip To King's Cross

The days passed by at lightning speed. Harry was cleared of all his charges by the Wizard Court. Hermione had introduced us to SPEW, which Will joined gladly while the rest of us hesitated. Ron and Hermione became Prefects. 

"Get up!" Bill shouted at our faces. "You'll miss your train!"

I opened my eyes partially. "It's Sunday, shut up," I whispered, and curled up around Jason. The sound of Bill talking to me faded away into the background, and I went back into my deep sleep. 

"YOU MADE BLUE COOKIES?" Percy's voice came so loudly, I may have panicked. I woke up with a jolt. 

"THERE ARE BLUE COOKIES?" 

"Yes!" Annabeth yelped, high-fiving Jason and Bill. "I told you, it always works!"

"One stone, two birds," Jason said, smiling. "Awesome."

There was a lot of commotion in the house as we came down after getting ready. Fred and George had bewitched their trunks to fly downstairs to save the bother of carrying them, with the result that they had hurtled straight into Ginny and knocked her down two flights of stairs into the hall; Mrs. Black and Molly were both screaming at the top of their voices.

"--COULD HAVE DONE HER A SERIOUS INJURY, YOU IDIOTS--"

"--FILTHY HALF-BREEDS, BESMIRCHING THE HOUSE OF MY FATHERS--"

"Mad-Eye's complaining that we can't leave unless Sturgis Podmore's here, otherwise the guard will be one short," Bill told us.

"Your sister all right?" Will asked.

"Almost, Mum just patched her up," Bill said.

"Tell her to give Ginny a nice cup of turmeric vanilla tea. She'll be fine." 

"WILL YOU LOT GET DOWN HERE NOW, PLEASE!" Molly bellowed, and we ran down the stairs, with Hermione and Harry hurrying behind us..

Mrs. Black's portrait was howling with rage but nobody was bothering to close the curtains over her; all the noise in the hall was bound to rouse her again, anyway.

"Harry, you're to come with me and Tonks," shouted Mrs. Weasley over the repeated screeches of "MUDBLOODS! SCUM! CREATURES OF DIRT!" "Leave your trunk and your owl, Alastor's going to deal with the luggage.... Oh, for heavens sake, Sirius, Dumbledore said no!"

A bearlike black dog had appeared at Harry's side as he was clambering over the various trunks cluttering the hall to get to Molly.

"Sirius," Nico rolled his eyes.

"Oh honestly..." said Molly despairingly, "well, on your own head be it!"

"The six of you can come with me," Bill said. "I convinced Dumbledore that you can protect yourselves well enough."

Molly wrenched open the front door and stepped out into the weak September sunlight. Harry and the dog followed her. The door slammed behind them.

"Next up is in thirty seconds."

"See you around then," I told Hermione. 

"Alright," Hermione said, rather pale.

We walked out the front door and closed the door behind us. Bill led us down the street, and then turned to us. "Alright," he said. "Tell me you won't cause some nonsense trouble in that school."

"Dude," Percy said, "we're not here to cause nonsense, you know that."

"No monsters," Bill said.

"No monsters, okay," Annabeth assured him.
