Into The Light (Golden Trio Era) {2}

Chat With the Dursley's

Mikayla was pulled into a hug with Remus. "Hello Moony, how've you been holding up?" Remus was taken aback from Mikayla's question before sadly smiling, "ok, struggling but I know it'll get easier." Mikayla smiled giving him another hug, just to give him some comfort. "Tonks!" Mikayla beamed as she seen the pick haired girl, pulling her into a hug, "I missed you so much." Mikayla admitted, during the summer, she and Tonks had become really close, sharing their clumsiest moments together. "I missed you two, how are you feeling?" "I'm ok, keeping busy and my mind at ease." She nodded as Mikayla finally made her way to Arthur and Molly, "oh honey!" Molly fussed pulling the blonde into a bone crushing hug. Once Molly released her Arthur wrapped her in a quick embrace before Bill pulled her into a hug, "I missed my favourite blondie." Mikayla chuckled, "I miss you too, Will." Bill laughed at Mikayla's new found nickname for him, "how's everything going with Fleur?" She asked in a whisper, "we're engaged!" Bill beamed, Mikayla's jaw dropped in surprise, "Noooooo," Mikayla spoke in disbelief, "yes." Mikayla squealed, "awe congratulations." Mikayla was a little too excited by the news that it caused the others to look at her strangely.

Mikayla noticed that Avery standing alone, looking a bit awkward, it then dawned on her that most of these people were strangers to her. She walked over to her sister, pulling her hand towards the group, "Everyone this is my sister Avery, Avery this is Tonks, the real Moody, and Bill, you know the others." Avery smiled shaking hands with everyone new she was meeting. "It's nice to finally meet you Avery, I've heard so much about you." Avery looked Bill up and down, before she smiled at him, "so you're the 'attractive' Weasley." Bill furrowed his eyebrows, "I'm engaged." This made everyone laugh including Parvati Patil who was on her way to introduce her mum to the Weasleys and Avery. "Bill, you and Avery play for the same team... she's dating Parvati." Bill chuckled uncomfortably at how he had embarrassed himself. "Hello, I'm Panna Patil." Parvati's mum spoke as she shook Mrs Weasley's hand, "I don't know if you're aware that Avery is dating my daughter Parvati." Molly beamed happily at the news, "yes, she sent me a letter so that they could spend some time together during the summer." "Molly, we've got to go now..." Moody spoke into Mrs Weasley's ear, "we must be off, send me an owl and we can organise a day of week that suits both of the girls." Panna smiles agreeing with Molly.

Moody and Arthur lead the group towards the Dursley's, who were apparently rooted to the floor. Hermione left her parents and joined the group, "good afternoon," Mr Weasley spoke pleasantly to Vernon as he came to a halt in front of him, "you might remember me, my name's Arthur Weasley." Mikayla suppressed a giggle, thinking that Vernon definitely remember the man that destroyed his living room and the father of the boy who gave his son a Ton- Tongue Toffee.

Vernon turned a deeper shade of puce and glared at Mr Weasley, whilst Petunia's eyes were set on Mikayla's face as though she knew the blonde. Mikayla looked back at her with a confused look which earn her a gasp in shock, this brought everyone's attention to Petunia and then Mikayla. "It can't be, you- you haven't aged a bit..." Petunia spoke, Mikayla knew for a fact that Petunia doesn't know her. "There's no way, Enya Carra?" Mikayla smiled and shook her head no, "no I'm her daughter, Mikayla Black." Mikayla held out her hand for Petunia to shake but instead the family of three jumped back in shock. "As in Sirius Black?" Vernon questioned, Mikayla sadly nodded, which caused the group to shift uncomfortably, Mikayla noticed that Harry had flinched at the mention of her father's name.

"Anyway..." Arthur began, "we thought we'd just have a few words with you about Harry," his friendly smile returning to his face. "Yeah," Moody growled, "About how he's treated when he's at your place." Vernon's eyes tore themselves away from staring at Mikayla to looking at Moody angrily, "I am not aware that it is any of your business that what goes on in my house-" Moody cut Vernon off, "I expect what you're not aware of would fill several books, Dursley." Tonks interjected saying that it's not the point, Petunia was watching the pink-haired woman as though Tonks' appearance was insulting her. "The point is, if we find out you've been horrible to Harry-" Tonks continued before Lupin added, "And make no mistake, we'll hear about it," Arthur nodded, "Yes, even if you won't let Harry use the fellytone-" Hermione corrected Arthur, telling him it's called a Telephone. "Yeah, if we get any hint that Potter's been mistreated in any way, you'll have us to answer to." Moody informed the Muggle family.

Vernon swelled ominously, his sense of outrage seemed to outweigh his fear of the group of witches and wizards. "Are you threatening me, sir?" Vernon's voice boomed causing passers-by to turn to stare at the large strange group. "Yes I am," Moody seemed rather pleased that Vernon has grasped this fact so quickly, "and do I look like the kind of man who can be intimidated?" Vernon barked at the group, Moody pushed back his bowler hat revealing his magical eye, Vernon leant backwards as the eyes seemed to scan him. "Yes, I'd have to say you do, Dursley." Moody straightened himself up, looking away from Vernon and turning back to look at Harry. "So, Potter ... give us a shout if you need us. If we don't hear from you for three days in a row, we'll send someone along..." Petunia whimpered piteously. It could not have been plainer that she was thinking of what their neighbours would say if they caught sight of these people marching up the garden path.

"Bye, then, Potter," Moody said grasping Harry's shoulder for a moment with a gnarled hand. "Take care, Harry, keep in touch." Lupin spoke quietly, Molly pulled Harry into a hug whispering something Mikayla didn't quite catch. "We'll see you soon, mate." Ron spoke anxiously shaking Harry's hand, "really soon, Harry," Hermione said earnestly, "we promise." Harry nodded before turning to Mikayla, Harry pulled the blonde into a hug, "I'll be at your house next Tuesday, we can do something for dad." Mikayla whispered, Harry nodded in the hug before the pair broke apart. "See you soon Potter." Avery winked before shaking Harry's hand. Harry smiled, raised a hand in farewell, turned around and led the way out of the station towards the sunlit streets. The group stood there for a moment watching him leave before Moody clapped his hands together, "right let's get you kids home." Mikayla, Ron, Avery and Ginny hugged Hermione goodbye for now.
