As they approached 4 Privet Drive, Aurelia Fred and George got increasingly excited to see Harry again. They were in the back of a particularly long line of wizards, and were on a mission to move Harry to the Weasley's house. Hagrid, Ron, and Hermione greeted Harry first, and the whole group entered the house. Aurelia cut in front of Bill

"Harry, Aurelia Snape" Harry shakes her hand "Good to meet you, I didn't know Professor Snape had a daughter" Aurelia nods "He isn't the most open person" Bill was next "Hello, Harry. Bill Weasley" Harry shakes Bill's hand as well "Oh, pleasure to meet you" Fred came in next "He never was this handsome" George followed, nodding "Dead ugly" Bill smirks "True enough" He points to a scratch scar on his cheek "Owe it all to a werewolf, name of Greyback. Hope to repay the favor one day"

Fred smirks and pats his shoulder "Only joking big bro. This, Harry, is none other than the oldest Weasley child" Bill smirks back at Fred "Yeah, that also makes me the wisest, seeing as my OWLs scores were much higher than you two's" Fred puts a hand dramatically on his chest, gasping aloud "I'm offended. Not all of us are gifted protegies, WiLlIaM"

Remus walks in "Just remember Fleur, Bill takes his steaks on the raw side now" Tonks follows him, chuckling "My husband the joker" Mad-Eye interrupts her mid-sentence as she was about to announce something to Harry. Aurelia made her way over to Fred, grabbing his hand. "We'll have time for the cozy catch up later! We've got to get the hell out of here, and soon!" Mad-Eye says, looking to Harry "Potter you're underage, which means you've still got the trace on you"

"Whats the trace?" Harry asks, Mad-Eye nodding "If you sneeze the minister will know who wipes your nose. Point is we have to use those means of transport the trace cant detect. Brooms, Thestrals, and the like. We go in pairs. That way if anyone's out there waiting for us, and I reckon there will be, they wont know which Harry Potter is the real one" Harry shakes his head "The real one?"

Mad-Eye pulls out a flask "I believe you're familiar with this particular brew" Harry shakes his head "No, absolutely not." Hermione looks to Mad-Eye "I told you he'd take it well" Harry scoffs "No, if you think I'm gonna let everyone risk their lives for me, I-I-" Ron cuts him off "Never done that before, have we?"

"No, no this is different! I mean, taking that, becoming me, no!" Fred glances at him "Well, none of us really fancy it, mate" George nods "Yeah, imagine if something went wrong and we ended up a scrawny, specky git forever" Mad-Eye nods "Everyone here is of age Potter. They've all agreed to take the risk"

Then, someone cleared their throat, and Mundungus appeared "Technically, I've been coerced. Mundungus Fletcher, Mr. Potter. Always been a huge admirer" Mad-Eye glares at him "Nip it, Mundungus!" Mundungus stops talking, and Mad-Eye nods "Alright Granger, as discussed" Hermione reached for the back of Harry's head and plucked multiple hairs, Harry grunting "Blimey, Hermione!"

Aurelia holds Fred's hand tighter, fully aware she was risking her life. She was more worried about Fred. He turned his head and kissed her forehead softly "We're gonna be fine, Lia" He says quietly, and she nods "For those of you who haven't taken polyjuice potion before, fair warning, it tastes like goblin piss" He says, handing the flask to Fred "Have a lot of experiences with that, do you, Mad-Eye?" Everyone stared at him, and he shrugged, releasing Aurelia's hand "Just trying to diffuse the tension" He takes a sip of the potion, groaning and passing it on

Eventually, everyone had changed into Harry, Fred and George looking at each other "Wow, we're identical!" Aurelia nearly laughed at them, Mad-Eye dumping a bag of clothes on the ground "Havent got anything a bit more sporting have you?" George said, Fred nodding "Yeah, I don't really fancy this color" Mad-Eye shakes his head "Well fancy this, you're not you, so shut it and strip"

Aurelia felt a bit uncomfortable changing in front of everyone, so Fred stood in front of her to guard her while she changed. She looked exactly like Harry, but she still felt uncomfortable. "Right then, we'll be pairing off. Each potter will have a protector. Mudungus, stick tight to me. I want to keep an eye on you. As for Harry" Everyone instantly said "yes?" And Mad-Eye shook his head "The real Harry. Where the devil are you anyway?"

Harry stepped out from behind George "Here" Mad-Eye nods "You'll ride with Hagrid. Aurelia, you go with Fleur and Bill, Fred with Arthur, George with Remus, Ron with Tonks, and Hermione with Kingsley" Aurelia nods, glancing over at Bill. Once she was finished changing she walked up to Bill "It's Aurelia" Bill nods "Stick close, your dad made me promise to keep you safe" She nods a little

Once everyone had finished changing they went outside, Bill waving Aurelia and Fleur over to a Thestral. He helped them get on before getting on himself, him being the one to fly it "Hold on, the pair of you. Don't want you falling off" Fleur wrapped her arms around Bill's waist, and Aurelia wrapped her arms around Fleur's. At Mad-Eyes count, they took off, and into the intense battle they went.
