Everyone has their very own brand of pain. Charlie's is from the death of his brother, Fred, during the final battle, changing him from the sweet and funny Gryffindor to a down right jerk. Rory, his new research assistant, keeps hers hidden inside of her and in the form of a worn picture in a small locket, and she really just wants to move on with her life. But this new job is a flash from the past, and she isnt sure if that's good or bad.
