~Christmas Dinner~

The Weasley family were the most wonderful people in the world, Arthur chatted with me happily about the Australian muggles and my old school. Molly had me baking cookies and other treats with her. Fred and George were super funny and let me join in on a few pranks they pulled on Harry and Ron.

I also met Tonks and Remus who were friendly but spent most of the night in with Arthur and Harry while Harry tried to convince them all that Draco was a death eater.

It was close to midnight now and Tonks and Remus were leaving. Remus shook my hand good bye while Tonks pulled me in for a big hug. "It was lovely to meet you" Tonks said to me before she headed for the door with Molly and Arthur in tow, Molly was trying to convince them to stay the night.

"Come over here Sarah" Fred called to me and I joined the tall red haired boy grabbing the end of a bon bon. Ron was sitting on the lounge chatting with George about the joke shop and Harry and Ginny had disappeared.

"Are you sure you're ready?" Fred asked a little suspiciously and I cringed a little wondering what was going to come out of this bon bon. "Ready when you are" I said refusing to back down from a challenge. "GO" Fred yelled and we both pulled hard causing a big bang to occur with a whole lot of smoke.

The next thing I knew Harry was running outside with Ginny following close behind and there was a ring of fire around the house. "What the hell?" Ron said running out side and the rest of us followed. I froze the moment I was out the door and saw the most terrifying thing.

Fenrir Greyback.

My lungs went tight and my head got fuzzy the next thing I knew I was on the ground with Ron and Fred standing over me, Harry, Ginny, Tonks, Remus and Arthur were gone. Ron was asking if I were okay and I noticed the silent tears rolling down my face.

I opened my mouth to try to answer but I couldn't get a single word out, I felt like I couldn't breathe I was hyperventilating. "Come on its okay" Fred said rubbing my back and I couldn't help the sob that escaped me.

"He killed my sister" I managed to choke out in disbelief and Ron wrapped his arms around me "It'll be okay" he whispered softly and I cried silently for a few more moments before pulling myself together and standing from the ground.

There was shouting in the distance and the sound of apparition. Molly was staring at the fire shivering with what could only be fear. George was trying to reassure her and Ron, Fred and I were standing there stunned, too shocked to really do anything else.

After a minute of complete frozenness I pulled my thoughts and senses together and worked on getting rid of the fire and after a moment the others joined in too. No sooner than we had put the fire out then two black forces came flying by strait through the house causing collapse and fire.

I could hear Harry and the others shouting in the distance while the rest of us stood their stunned. I couldn't believe the death eaters had found us here, I couldn't believe Casey's killer was here and I froze up.

There was one thing I knew for certain, the next time I came face to face with Fenrir Greyback I would not freeze up, I would kill him.

"Hey" I nearly jumped out of my skin when Draco approached me on the train heading back to Hogwarts. "Hey" I replied smiling.

"Sarah" Harry called out warningly and I rolled my eyes facing back towards Draco "I gotta go" I said slightly annoyed. "What's Potter's problem?" Draco asked looking over my shoulder at Harry. "Same as usual" I answered vaguely.
