Diana woke up the next morning, a little more exhausted than usual. She brought a hand to her lips, a small smile on her face. 

"Diana stop smiling and start changing or well be late." Ginny said, throwing Diana a shirt. Diana caught it standing up, she changed into muggle clothes, and went to the bathroom to freshen up, before going downstairs. 

Mrs. Weasley stood in the kitchen, finishing up the last of the breakfast. The boys were all in the kitchen eating breakfast, she made eye contact with George before they both blushed, and looked away as she sat down next to Ginny.

"We're going to have to take some muggle taxis. Arthur's gone into the ministry, some trouble with Mad-eye Moony." Mrs. Weasley told the girls. Diana didn't know who Mad-eye Moony was, but her mind was to occupied to think about Mad-eye at the moment.

They finished breakfast, grabbed their luggage and went down to the village post office. Mrs. Weasley ordered three taxis for the group. The taxis came a little while later, and grudgingly loaded all their bags into the cars. Giving them strange looks because of the owls and screamed when there was noise from Fred's luggage that sounded like explosions.

"Alright, I'll go with Fred, George, and Diana." Charle said, Diana looked at the cramped space in the taxi, as Fred got in, and then George. She sat next to George, the taxis were small, making her body press against his. Fred watched them curiously as George stared straight ahead and Diana stared out the window. They both wanted to talk but they simply didn't have time because of rushing to King's crossing and his family being around 24/7.

They climbed onto the Hogwarts express, put their luggage in an empty compartment they found, and went back to say goodbye to Mrs. Weasley, Bill, and Charlie.

"I might be seeing you all sooner than you think," Charlie said, as he hugged Ginny goodbye.

"Why?" Fred asked,

"You'll see. Just don't tell Percy I mentioned it...it's 'classifiedinformation, until such time as the Ministry sees fit to release it,' after all." Charlie said, doing a very good impression of Percy.

"Yeah, I sort of wish I were back at Hogwarts this year," Bill said, as he looked at the train, longingly.

"Why?" George said, sounding impatient.

"You're going to have an interesting year. I mighteven get time off to come and watch a bit of it." Bill said, his eyes twinkling devilishly.

"A bit of what?" Ron asked, but the train whistle blew at that moment. The seven of them climbed on the Hogwarts express and leaned out the windows to talk to the adults. 

"Thank you for letting us stay Mrs. Weasley." Diana said, Hermione and Harry nodded.

"Oh, it was my pleasure, dears. I'd invite you for Christmas,but...well, I expect you're all going to want to stay at Hogwarts, what with. . . onething and another."

"Mum! What d'you three know that we don't?" Ron shouted.

"You'll find out this evening, I expect. It's going tobe very exciting - mind you, I'm very glad they've changed the rules -" 

"What rules!" Harry, Ron, Fred, and George yelled together.

""I'm sure Professor Dumbledore will tell you...Now, behave, won't you? Won'tyou, Fred? And you, George?" Mrs. Weasley asked. The whistle blew loudly again, and the train started moving.

"Tell us what's happening at Hogwarts! What rules are they changing?" Fred shouted, but the train was speeding away. Mrs. Weasley smiled and waved before the three disapparated away.
