Into The Book

5

A/N: there's going to be some strong language from here bit i will blank as much as i can out and use alternative words. Sorry if you don't swear just fill other words in.

"F**k!" behind Conrad exclaims, great he's going to be no help.
"Language!" me and the older woman retort
"Sorry." he sheepishly apologises
Looking back to the 5 people in front of us, who by the way still have their sticks pointed at us. The women are very different - one older with red hair and quite short the other young with bubblegum pink hair and tall. The men - one is old with a mane of long grey hair, a shocking electric blue eye and a normal one, the second has shoulder length black hair and grey eyes (could've been handsome once but something took a toll on him) and the last one looks the same age as the second yet more worn with scars lining his face, his mousy brown hair greying and blue/green eyes.
From looking at them i know exactly who they are and that they're witches and wizards. They are Molly Weasley, Nymphadora Tonks, Alistair 'Mad-eye' Moody, Sirius Black and Remus Lupin. And everything single wand is directed at us. Sh*t.
"How about you introduce yourselves and then we will do the same, that okay?" Lupin asks/suggests while watching me. Me! What did I do this Time?
"Why do we have to go first?" Conrad replies defensively. Idiot.
"Maybe because we're the ones not supposed to be here." i tell him
"Oh yeah." Brilliant he's an idiot, a complete and utter idiot!!
"Okay...I'm Rebecca and this is Idiot, I mean Conrad. He's Conrad."
"Surnames?" Moody pushes
"Don't push it. You requested an introduction and I gave one. It's your turn now, we're waiting."
"And I'm the idiot?" Conrad says behind me.
"Yes." i tell him through a growl
"Yes we did only ask an introduction. So...I'm Remus Lupin, this is Sirius Black, Nymphadora Tonks - but don't call her Nymphadora - Alistair Moody and Molly Weasley." i nod to say i got it all and Conrad being a plonker has to go and say "Nymphadora, why do you have pink hair?"
"Don't call me Nymphadora!" she exclaims through gritted teeth while I slapped him on the back of his head.
"Okay we know they're names. I say we call Dumbuldore, there deatheaters I'm sure of it." Moody says to the others. Clearly we're not supposed to hear. "Don't be ridiculous Alistair they're just children and look at her she's been crying." Molly replies. Great she only cares that I've been crying. "Remus what do you think? She responsed better to you than the rest of us." i did not the only one I've been b***hy to is Mad-eye.
"She has only been annoyed with Alistair, Sirius and i think we should let them calm down. As well as they're both hiding it, they're scared." Oh yeah, why are they only concerned with me!!
Like he'd read my mind Conrad asks "Why are you only concerned with her. I'm here too." spoilt brat.
Chuckling Tonks replies "Because she better at hiding her thoughts and feelings. Making her an asset but also a threat. Whereas you, we can just read like a book." oh it's because I'm heartless, I'm okay with that.
"Rebecca, that's not fair." he says to me to which I roll my eyes but he continues but to everyone "She is not a threat or an asset. She will not be used. Just because you don't know is the reason you can't read her!" why does he care so much?
"We weren't planning on using Rebecca, Conrad. Do you two know what's going on at the moment or what we are?"
"No." i answer before he can put us in another hole "but I'm guessing a war - there's always a war somewhere in the world - and you're humans, am I right?" i sarcastically answer
"Hmm...yes in a way you are correct Rebecca."
"You're not going to go into teacher mode are you, Moony?" Black asks Lupin
Shaking his head, Lupin turns back to me "Yes there's a war but it's only just starting, and yes we're humans in a way."
"What do you mean?" Conrad finally catches on "How can you only be human in a way?"
"We've got magic!" Black says with false enthusiasm, i actually smile
"Yeah okay. Magic does not exist. We're not that gullible." i lie smoothly
"I'll prove it."
"Go on then." i challenge. Of course i know they're wizards but i so wanna see magic
Sirius points his wand at an umbrella stand and levitates it in the air.
"Wow! That was awesome." Conrad sounds like a kid at Christmas
I simply nod.
"you aren't impressed at all?" they ask me. I shrug.
"Enough. This way dears, I'll get something to eat and drink." Molly says to us with a warm smile on her face. Conrad follows eagerly while I do more cautiously.
"I've never seen you walk so fast in your life Conrad." i state so only he can hear but I hear Lupin chuckle quietly behind.
