The Burrow, Devon 

August 1994


"YOU HAD HER LAST TIME, WE NEED A CHASER AS WELL! ASTRA!!"

Sixteen year old Astra Tonks looked up wearily at Ginny and George Weasley. She had been avoiding being dragged into the argument and as both siblings were looking at her expectantly, she rolled her eyes.

"I'm starting to regret offering up this game." Astra murmured to Hermione who smiled in response before the former got up. 

"Why are you fighting over me?" 

"Because of all of us, your the best flyer. Even better than Charlie." Ginny insisted, stomping on her older brothers foot as he made an offended noise. 

Astra chuckled under her breath. "I don't know if I'm that good but if you two are gonna stop arguing I'll be on your guys team. Then Fred, Charlie and Ron can go together." 

The Weasleys finally agreed, and the game commenced. 

The Weasley's garden was large, but it wasn't large enough for the snitch and the makeshift hoops had been levitated by Charlie. Astra gripped her old but trustworthy Silver Arrow as she dodged Ron and Fred and went straight for the second eldest brother, feigning left and throwing the Quaffle through the right. 

"Charlie, you're supposed to be good!" Fred yelled from across the 'pitch'. 

"I'm a fucking seeker, not a keeper! What about you, supposed Beat-ER!!" Charlie was cut off mid insult, raising his broom to avoid the Bludger in question taking off his head. 

Astra hid her laugh, gaining the Quaffle from Ginny and throwing it through the unguarded hoop. 

"Twenty to Tonks." Ginny sang teasingly at Ron who scowled. 

"Shut up Ginny."

Fred stuck his tongue out in response to Astra who was teasing him as well. "Maybe you should try and score Freddie."

"Maybe you could just try being worse." He called in response, hearing a light laugh as she zig-zagged around Ron and headed for Charlie again, who unfortunately for her saved it.

The sixth year groaned, hearing a cheer from Fred and Ron, who then ultimately got a goal because George had to hit the bludger away. 

"GEORGE!" Astra yelled from beside Fred, around ten feet away from her keeper. 

"SORRY! TRYING NOT TO KILL MYSELF!" He argued back. 

The quidditch game managed to take up about three hours of the afternoon, and soon enough Mr Weasley and Bill arrived time, about ten minutes before the Weasleys were going to collect the boy who lived. 

Astra landed on the ground lightly, George instantly slinging an arm around the champion of the game, the overall total being one hundred and fifty to sixty, mostly because of Charlie's shocking keeper skills.
