The following morning Uncle Vernon paid a man to fit bars on our window. We started losing weight and gave us little food which we mostly shared with our birds. Hermione by now must be mad at me for not writing back. We stayed inside our room waiting for Ron, Fred and George to come and rescue us. Sometimes, I would even stared at my hands and bars on the window thinking of doing magic.

As moonlight was shining through the bars on the window, we opened our eyes. Someone was goggling through the bars at us-- a freckle-faced and noise-haired.

It was Ron Weasley.

"Ron!"we boomed, creeping through the window and lifting it up."What are you doing here?"

"We came to rescue you two,"Ron retorted.

We were surprised of what we saw. Ron was leaning out of the back window of an old turquoise car which was parked on mid-air. Smiling from the front seats were Fred and George Weasley.

Fred threw at me the end of a rope and ordered me to tied around the bars.

"Stand back,"said Fred.

Harry and I moved back and stood next to Hedwig who seemed to understand what was happening and remained silent. Fred drove the car straight up on the air and suddenly, with a crunching noise, the bars were pulled out of the window.

"Give us your stuffs!"-RON

We took our trunks and handed them over to George. Suddenly, we heard Uncle Vernon coughing.

"Hurry up! Get in the car!He's waking up!"cried Ron.

We took Hedwig and Azor and handed them to George. Harry jumped out of the window into the car. I dashed out of the window and entered into the car but Uncle Vernon managed to grabbed my foot.

"THAT RUDDY OWLS!"

"YOU'RE NOT GETTING AWAY!"Uncle Vernon shouted.

"LET ME GO!"I shouted at him.

Ron, Fred and George siezed my arms and pulled as hard as I could.

"Drive the car Fred!"I yelled.

When the car suddenly shot towards the moon, my leg slid out of Uncle Vernon's grasp. I slammed the door shut and uncle Vernon rolled down the window and fell on the bush.

We could not believe that we are free.

After sometimes, we hit the ground. We landed next to a tumbledown garage in a small garage.

"Come in--fast---their is no one!"Fred whispered as we entered the burrow.

Harry and I stared around the Burrow. Everything around was perfect. We saw dishes washing themselves as if they had a mind on its own.

"It's not much but it's home."said Ron.

"We think it's brilliant!"Harry and I blasted in unison.

Mr. Weasley came to a halt in front of us her hands on her hips staring from one guilty face to another.

"Where have you been?"asked Mrs.Weasley coldly.

No letters....Beds empty!"Mrs.Weasley roared.

"Of course I don't blame you Harry and Albarus."

"Car gone you could have died, you could have crashed, you could have been seen"

"They were starving them mom. They put bars on their window,"Ron retorted.

"You'd better I do not bars on your window."

"Now Harry and Albarus will you please sit down and I'll serve you two some breakfast."
