In Between Two Worlds (HP/PJO Crossover)

Chapter 44: Bars On The Window.

Over the next few days I didn't have anymore nightmares. Mrs Weasley gave me a Dreamless Sleep potion so I wouldn't have nightmares. Ginny also helped me a lot. She calmed me down whenever I thought about it. It was kind of weird that I had that nightmare because I had been successful blocking it up to then. It might have been because I was talking with Ron about seeing parts of our quest for next year.

Harry still hadn't responded to any of our letter so we decided to go get him at his house. We figured that his family had probably been intercepting their letters.

We all went to bed that night and just laid awake in our beds until we knew that everyone else was asleep. I went up to Ron's room and got him. We then went to the twins room. We all went down to the garage and got in the car.

"Do you know how to fly this?" I asked George as he climbed onto the driver's seat.

"I'll figure it out." Said George.

"Nope." I said shaking my head. "I'll drive. I grew up with muggles. I know how cars work. Plus my dad literally drives the sun!"

"Good argument." He handed me the keys and I climbed into the drivers seat.

We drove for about two hours before we got to Harry's neighborhood. I looked out the window for number 4. I saw it and told to boys to look for Harry's window.

"That one is probably it." Said Fred. "The one with the bars."

I looked out the window and started to say not so nice things about the Dursley's in Ancient Greek. I pulled up to the window and shined the lights in his room so he would see them. After a few seconds he opened the window.

"Ron. Karlee." He breathed. "How did you - What the -?"
His mouth dropped open. I guess it was kinda shocking. Ron was leaning out of the back window of an old turquoise car, which was parked in midair. Grinning at him from the front seats were Fred, George, and me.

"All right, Harry?" asked George.

"What's been going on?" said Ron. "Why haven't you been answering our letters? We've asked you to stay about twelve times, and then Dad came home and said you'd got an official warning for using magic in front of Muggles -"

"It wasn't me - and how did he know?"

"He works for the Ministry," said Ron. "You know we're not supposed to do spells outside school -"

"You should talk," said Harry, staring at the floating car.

"Oh, this doesn't count," said Ron. "We're only borrowing this. It's Dad's, we didn't enchant it. But doing magic in front of those Muggles you live with -"

"I told you, I didn't - but it'll take too long to explain now look, can you tell them at Hogwarts that the Dursleys have locked me up and won't let me come back, and obviously I can't magic myself out, because the Ministry'Il think that's the second spell I've done in three days, so -"

"Stop gibbering," said Ron. "We've come to take you home with us."

"But you can't magic me out either -"

"We don't need to," said Ron, jerking his head toward the front seat and grinning. "You forget who I've got with me."

"Tie that around the bars," I said, throwing the end of a rope to Harry.

"If the Dursleys wake up, I'm dead," Harry said as he tied the rope tightly around a bar and I revved up the car.

"Don't worry," said I, "and stand back."

Harry moved back into the shadows next to Hedwig, who seemed to have realized how important this was and kept still and silent. The car revved louder and louder and suddenly, with a crunching noise, the bars were pulled clean out of the window as I drove straight up in the air. Panting, Ron and George hoisted them up into the car.
