The more I think about my life I think that if I had another choice in the matter that I would still be doing what I am doing now. Right now my twin brother and some of our friends are on the search for horcruxes. Horcruxes are objects that a dark witch or wizard can put a part of their soul in but the only way they could do that is by murdering. A very dark and powerful wizard named Voldermort, also known as he-who-mustn’t-be-named, had done just that. He had split his soul up eight times for eight horcruxes. My brother and many of the others only know of six horcruxes. The only people that know on all eight are Hermione, Dumbledore and myself. Of course there is something only Dumbledore and myself know and that was when Harry and I were babies Voldermort had tried to kill us but couldn’t. He had created two horcruxes but in order to destroy them Voldermort would have to kill us. Even though Voldermort had killed us he technically didn’t kill us. He would have destroyed the part of his soul in us. I know that I should tell Hermione but I can’t because when in battle she needs to worry about herself and not me and Harry. I still remember the accident that had left the six of us on the run from death eaters. Ron’s brother Bill had gotten married earlier that day. Harry, Hermione and Ron were able to get to their other before disapperating out from the Burrow. Harry had found Ginny. Hermione had found George. Ron was able to find me. We had grouped together before disapperating from the Burrow.  I could not believe that death eaters had attacked the Burrow. Now almost a year later we were getting packed up to go to Hogsmede. I have a contact there that would be able to get us into Hogwarts castle undetected. Harry had no clue who it is. No one actually knows. My contact actually is Dumbledore’s brother Aberforth Dumbledore. Albus Dumbledore had told me about him. I was also told that I was named after their sister. I could not wait to get back to see Aberforth and D.A., Dumbledore’s Army. I was so consumed in my thoughts only that I had not heard Ron walk up. “A penny for them?” He said “You sacred me.” I yelled at him. “Well I had come over to ask you a question but never mind.” “No wait! What was your question?” I reached my hand out to catch him before he left. I was able to catch him. “Do you really want to know what the question is?” “Yes defiantly.” He put one hand in his pocket before coming closer to sit next to me on the ground. “Well Harry and I were talking. He and I had come to a decision.” He got up and when he did he pulled me up with him. Then he got down on one knee. “Ariana Melania Potter, will you marry me?” I didn’t know what to say. I had started crying. I couldn’t find my voice at all it would have screamed no. All I could do was nodded my head yes. He got up and kissed me. He put the ring on my finger. I went to find Harry. He was sitting on the other side of our camp. Ginny, George and Hermione just took tent down. “A penny for them?” I asked Harry. I sacred him just like Ron had sacred me. “That looks oddly familiar considering Ron had done the same thing to me.” As soon as I mentioned Ron, Harry looked at my ring finger on my left hand. When he saw the ring a small grin made itself known on his face. “Yes Harry, he asked me and I accepted.” He laughed. “You know it won’t be too much longer before you and George do the same. I want to know why he was the first to ask. I mean normally you do stuff before he does but then again you have to ask Arthur so yeah. Hey but George doesn’t have anyone to ask since Hermione’s parents don’t even know they have a daughter.” I was a little confused. “Well from what George has told me that he had asked but Hermione never answered him. Apparently she has a lot to think about.” My mouth was gaped open. I was surprised. “So, what about you?” “Well I just haven’t found the right time to ask. I might ask Ginny after we have destroyed all the horcruxes.” When he had said that my heart sank just a little. He doesn’t know. That we are the final two horcruxes. “Everyone ready to go to Hogsmede?” I spoke loudly so everyone could hear me. They all gathered around me. “Now once we apperate into Hogsmede we need to be alert because an alarm will go off. But I have enlarged the invisibility cloak in order to cover us all. We will have to walk from where we entered to my contact’s house. Everyone ready?”  Everyone took my arm. We apperated into Hogsmede and just as I told them the alarm went off. I quickly covered everyone in the cloak. We took off quickly to Aberforth’s house. I knocked on his door. He opened the door but he didn’t look surprised. We all went in and took off the cloak. “Hello Aberforth.” I said. Everyone stared at me. “Okay everyone quit staring. What do you want to know?” “How do you know Aberforth?” Harry asked. “Well when I started coming to Hogsmede for Albus Dumbledore to pick up different things. One time I ran into Aberforth. He was the one who told me that I was named after Ariana Dumbledore, their younger sister. Now if there’s nothing else.” I turned to the painting of Ariana and nodded. Aberforth, Ariana and me ate the only ones who know what that means. As Ariana was coming back, getting closer, I felt really nauseous all of a sudden. “I need something to throw up in.” Ron came over to me and accioed a bucket for me. “Are you okay?” Someone asked. Since I was looking down into the bucket I didn’t know who asked. Right before I could answer I ended up throwing up. I noticed that it was too dry. Something is wrong with me but I can’t worry about that now. “I’m fine. Hey Neville!” Everyone turned around to the picture of Ariana. “Follow me.” Neville said. “Neville can you come back in about an hour for more people?” I grabbed Ron before he could leave. “We are going somewhere else right now. Aberforth are they there?” “They should be.” “Well we will be back in an hour.” I took Ron’s hand and apperated back to the burrow. I saw Molly getting ready. Ron went to talk to his father. I went over to Molly. “Mrs. Weasly I have a question.” She looked up startled. “What is it dear?” “Is a magical wedding different than a muggle wedding?” She thought about it. “Yes they are different. For a magical wedding any witch or wizard can wed a couple. Why do you ask?” “I’ll answer  consumed in their own conversation. “Ron your mother told me that in a magical wedding any witch or wizard could wed a couple. I was thinking that before the battle that maybe we could get married. In case anything were to happen during that battle.” He laughed. I just looked at him with confusion written all over my face. “I was laughing because I had just talked to my dad about that.  I was also wondering what the difference between a magical and muggle wedding.” “So what you were thinking the same thing as me.” “Yes definitely. Who do you think should do it?” I thought about it. “Your father. Arthur Weasly. What do you think?” “That is bloody brilliant idea.” “I know you have been listening to us.” I said to Molly and Arthur. They walked in with a huge smile on both their faces. Molly thou had a sly grin on. “Ariana come with me. Ron go with your father.” “We only have 50 minutes before all of us have to go to Hogsmede.” Molly dragged me to a room. When I walked in the only thing in the room was a wedding dress. “I want you to wear this.” Molly told me. “Are you sure Molly?” She nodded her head. She helped me put the dress on. Once it was on I fixed my hair to make it more elegant. After I was ready I hugged Molly and then whispered. “Thanks, mum.” I grabbed my bag and accioed the wedding rings. I created them shortly after Ron had asked me to marry him. Molly had left for a moment then came back. “Are you ready dear?” Molly asked.  I took a deep breath and then nodded. She walked me out to the living room. She then went to stand next to Arthur. I took another deep breath before walking to where they were standing. Ron and I face each other. “Now since we don’t have time to do the whole ceremony. So we will do vows and exchange rings.” I handed Ron my ring. “In the presence of God and these our friends, I take thee to be my wife, promising with Divine assistance to be unto thee a loving and faithful husband so long as we both shall live.” He put my ring on my finger. So I said the same thing back. “In the presence of God and these our friends, I take thee to be my husband, promising with Divine assistance to be unto thee a loving and faithful wife so long as both shall live.” I placed the ring on his finger. “I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride.” Ron kissed me with a lot of passion. “Okay sorry to ruin the mood but we need to get back. Ron and I can get changed at Hogwarts. Everyone grab a hold of my arm and get ready.” I apperated all of us back to Aberforth’s house. We got there right before Neville arrived. “Why are you two dressed up?” “None of your business right now Neville. Is there a place for us to change there?” He nodded. “Okay lead the way.” Everyone had followed Neville through the tunnel into Hogwarts. As soon as I got into the room I could see a lot of the people in Gryffindor tired and have cuts and bruises on their faces. I then finally spotted Harry. At that exact moment he spotted me and rushed over. “Why are you dressed up?” He asked. “I know you have the right to know but not right now, I will tell you later.” “Okay.” “Neville where can we change?” Neville took Ron and me to a room to change. “You know get dressed or changed in front of you isn’t as awkward it use it be.” I stated. “I agree.” He said. As soon as we were ready we went back out. “All students must report to the Great Hall.” I heard on the loud system. “We need to get going. Ariana and Harry put on you Gryffindor cloaks and keep your head down so you don’t get noticed.” Neville told us. I accioed our cloaks out of my bag. I gave Harry his and then we both put them on. Ron came over to me and kissed me. “Be safe.” “Hey Ron don’t worry about me just yet. I can take care of myself.” “I know but still.” I heard him mummer. Harry and I marched along with the rest of Gryffindor house.
