"Are you kidding me right now."
The group of them were standing in the parking lot of the hotel.
"Are you kidding me."
"Nope... someone stole your car, Ginny," Hermione (O) said. "Serves you right, leaving the keys in there."
Their car was nowhere in sight. Ginny (O) scowled at Hermione (O). "That was Harry, I don't even know how to drive it!"
"Guess we're walking, then!" Sirius said merrily. Everyone scowled at him. "What? They don't have taxis in Florida."
"They have buses, Padfoot," Remus said, rolling his eyes.
"Not really," Harry (O) said, "not like in London. Um... hate to break it to you guys, but I think we are walking."
"You can't be serious," Ginny (O) said.
"I'm not, he is," Harry (O) said, pointing at Sirius. Then seeing the look Ginny gave him, he said quickly, "Just joking! C'mon Ginny, it can't be that far."
"It's BONDING TIME!" Hermione (O) said excidedly as they began walking down the sidewalk.
"Oh God help us," Ginny (O) muttered. "What the crap is bonding time?"
"I dunno, it doesn't sound healthy, though," Ron (O) said.
"It's a time to interact with each other!" Hermione said cheerfully.
There was an extended pause, until Ginny (O) said loudly, "I've decided I hate bonding time... IT'S SO HOT IN FLORIDA!"
"Let's observe the Muggles!" Hermione (O) suggested.
"Let's get arrested for being creepers! Good idea, Hermione!" Ron (O) exclaimed.
"Let's walk," Harry (O) said.
"You're so mainstream, Harry." Ginny (O) started shaking her head.
"Let's talk about something else," Hermione (O) said, "like... um..."
"Hey Hermione, do you like Taylor Swift? I like Taylor Swift," Ginny (O) said.
"I sort of like Taylor Swift, I mean, she's kind of annoying somet-"
"Shut up. No she's not."
"Who's Taylor Swift?" Ginny (Y) asked.
"A singer," Hermione (O) answered.
"A singer who has dated probably a million people in her entire lifetime," Harry (O) said.
"Yeah, there was Taylor Lautner," said Ginny (O), "then Harry Styles - haha, Harry - and I think she dated Joe Jonas, and I bunch of other random people I don't even know. And after they break up she goes and writes a song about it."
"That's... okay, what?" Sirius was confused.
"Her music is pretty good," Hermione (O) said. "But you know what music I like? Evenescence."
"I. Love. Evanescence!" Ginny (O) said.
"Which is your favorite song by them?"
"I dunno, I think that one's got to be Bring Me To Life. That song is amazing. Or maybe my favorite is the one with Seether in it, it's called Broken. I love that song!"
"What about Paramore? Do you like Paramore?"
"Yes! Avril Lavigne? P!nk? Imagine Dragons? Fall Out Boy? The Script? Plain White T's? Gotye? Brittany Spears? Train? Justin Timberlake? PSY? Ke$ha? My Chemical Romance? Falling In Reverse? Iron and Wine?"
"Oh my God Hermione, Ginny, stop!" Ron (O) exclaimed. "Let's just walk in silence."
"You're lame, Ron. Hey guys, how American is that?!" They were passing a McDonald's, and Ginny (O) was pointing at it. "Don't eat that, guys! Guess what it's made of! That's right, chicken crap! Guys. Why're you laughing. I'm serious. They have a food called McCrap. It's spelled like McWrap, but they say it like McCrap... I'm never, ever going to eat anything but an ice cream from there."
Ginny (O) was walking backwards now, laughing with everyone else. But her face fell when everyone turned serious. She stopped walking. "What -?"
"Get behind me," Harry (O) ordered, grabbing her arm and pulling her behind him.
Suddenly the Muggles started looking panicked. The sky had gone from sunny to dark grey in a matter of seconds - the clouds were sweeping over Florida at a fast speed. They were honking in their cars, wanting to go faster to avoid rain. Ginny (O) tried to squirm out of her husband's grip, but he wouldn't let go.
That's when the Dark Mark appeared. A solid black cloud at first, but it formed into a moving skull, a snake slitering out of its mouth. Muggles screamed. Wands were drawn.
"Motherf-" Ron (O) began.
"RON!" Hermione yelled, and Ron turned around to see that people in black cloaks were running towards them, flicking their wands carelessly at the Muggles and killing them. Harry (O) turned around, momentarily bafeled, and Ginny (O) set herself free, grabbing her wand and shouting "CONFUNDUS!"
She hit Fenir Greyback, who slowed at his running, his eyes spacing out, but then he shook his head, let out a snarl, and ran faster then he had before, straight at Ginny.
"Oh shoot!" Ginny (O) yelled, backing up and racking her brain for a spell.
"Flipendo!" Remus shouted, flipping the werewolf away.
"Than-" Ginny (O) began, but just then the Death Eaters circled them.
Harry (O) go to Ginny (O) again, blocking her. "If you hurt anyone -"
"You'll what, Potter?" Hary (O) clentched his teeth together in anger at the sound of Bellatrix's taunting voice. "Cast a stag at us?"
"You!" Ginny (O) raged, glaring daggers at Bellatrix and spitting out every word she said venomously. "You horrible, complete BASTORD! Don't you DARE TOUCH my daughter!"
"And what will you do about it?" Bellatrix sneered. "It's a pity you ran off with Potter, Ginevra. A waste of pure blood."
"Yes, well, you're a waste of air!" Ginny (O) countered.
"Huh. Might want to fix your attitude before it costs you your head, Ginevra!"
"You might want to fix your lack of brains before you die from your stupidness."
"YOU LITTLE -"
"Anger issues much?"
"I CAN KILL YOU AS EASILY AS I CAN KILL AN ANT, POTTER!" Bellatrix screamed.
"Good luck with that, Bella!"
"Keep your mouth shut," Harry (O) told Ginny (O), who scowled. "What do you want, Bellatrix? Come to give us our family back, or just to chat?"
"I wouldn't count on you getting your brat back any time soon." Bellatrix smiled evilly.
"We'll see about that, bitc-" Ginny (O) began, but Harry (O) covered her mouth.
"Watch your tounge, or I'll make sure you won't have one to watch, blood traitor," Bellatrix spat at Ginny (O).
Harry (O) narrowed his eyes at the Death Eater. "Don't talk to my wife like that."
"Or what?"
"Or you'll get what's coming to you, and I don't care if you're a woman, I'll put my fist through your face."
"Oooooooooooo!" Ron slapped a hand over his mouth.
"Burn!" Sirius said.
"EXPELLIARMUS!" a voice yelled from behind them, and Bellatrix was thrown into a lamppost, her wand went flying.
The Death Eaters seemed lost for what to do. They then began to back off when they saw every single person in Harry's family, plus friends, all pointing thier wands at them. They easily saw that Teddy was the one who had attacked Bellatrix, who was clearly knocked out.
"I suggest you all go," James said from beside his surrogate brother, "and tell Mr. MoldyShorts - I meant Voldemort, oops - that we're not afraid of his distractions. And also tell him he stinks, from me. It really is too bad he can't smell it, though."
There was a pause, until Victoire yelled, "WHAT ARE YOU IDIOTS WAITING FOR? LEAVE!"
"VACATE THE PREMESIS!" Scorpius told them.
"NO DEATH EATERS ALLOWED!" Domi added.
"GET THE FREAK OUT!" Albus yelled.
The Death Eaters, outnumbered, some disarmed, had no choice but to leave slowly, as if embarrassed and ashaimed they failed.
"Is everyone okay?" Fleur asked, helping Hermione (O) off the ground.
"Yeah," Molly (past) said. "How'd -"
"-we get here? Portkey," Teddy answered. "Illegaly, but oh well."
"We knew something was up," Draco said. "Once the Ministry started getting tons of reports on Unforgivable Curses being used in this area."
"And we hadn't heard from you," Luna said.
"So we figured -" Fred (past) began.
"-you'd be in some sort of trouble," George (Y) finished.
"God you guys," Roxanne said, "can't you go a week without us helping you out?"
"I'm going to kill Bellatrx," Ginny (O) muttered.
"Nice comment on punching faces out, Dad," James said. "Loved it."
"We need to talk," Remus said.
