The Weasleys

They both high fived as soon as Harry took the cloak off. "You know, this is becoming a habit of mine, sneaking out of school during the Winter vacations." Harry told Adam. Adam turned towards the compartment door, wand in hand and had locked the door soon.

They both sat down on the seats. "I've got to get myself one of those." Adam gestured towards Harry's invisibility cloak.

"They're really expensive." Harry commented, "but we don't have to worry about expenses now, do we?" They both shared knowing grins.

There was a knock on the compartment window and Harry opened it to let the owl in. He took the letter from it, read it through and then nodded, smiling. "Well?" Adam asked, who had been impatiently watching him. "Oh, I had owled Charlie to ask permission to bring my 'muggleborn first year' friend along who wanted to see a wizarding house." Harry replied innocently. "Guess he agreed" Harry continued.

Adam smirked. "You sure know how to get your way with people" Adam remarked.

Finally the Hogwarts Express pulled onto King's Cross. Adam saw Harry pull out a dart from his pocket and twirl it in his hands. "What's with the darts anyways?" Adam asked.

"Oh just an extra precaution..." Harry replied. Adam raised his eyebrow but didn't comment. He hadn't seen the darts in action...yet.

Adam shrunk both of their trunks as they exited into Muggle London. They were making their way out of King's Cross when Harry silenced Adam with a wave of his hand. Harry stopped for a moment as he looked around. Then nodded as they made their way out. "Someone's following us.." Harry whispered. Adam nodded looking at Harry for instructions.

They were pleased to see that the streets were crowded. "We'll lose him in the crowd." Harry whispered. They both began to make their way here and there through the crowd. Every minute or so, Harry would turn and look behind. They finally into an alley that was deserted. Harry looked back and muttered "Shit" as he saw a person in a huge coat standing there behind them. They both started to run but stopped when they saw a similar man standing in front of them.

Both men were huge, their coat's partially torn and having a large amount of scars on their faces. Harry didn't waste time as the dart he had been holding in his hand. The dart whirled through the air and struck one of the men in their forehead. The man fell down. Both Harry and Adam turned towards the other one. Adam had his wand out. Adam yelled a few curses but the man avoided them, and the one that did make contact had no effect on him.

Harry took out his dagger. The man also took out twin daggers. "Adam run" Harry muttered but Adam stayed where he was. Harry pushed Adam back a little as he made his way towards the man, dagger in hand. The man began to swing both of his daggers in slashing motion and Harry was able to avoid getting cut by either dodging or by blocking with his own dagger. But the latter wasn't effective as the man easily overpowered Harry.

Harry even landed a few kicks on the man, but the man was unaffected. The same type that I killed last summer. Harry noted. Harry looked mournfully at his dagger, he was going to kill again and he knew it. Harry hesitated. The man swung his daggers again and this time, one of them cut his cheek, drawing blood. In a rage Harry swung his arm and put his dagger through the man's neck. He knew it didn't matter where he hit the man as long as he drew blood. The poison in the dagger would be enough to kill the man.

Harry sighed as he looked down at the dead man on the ground. He touched his cheek and saw that his fingers became bloodied. Never again would he hesitate to kill a man. But he didn't have time to contemplate as he heard Adam's shriek.
