Harry had been quite surprised, by the meeting with Horace Slughorn. The man was intriguing, but kind. Harry knew, that if this wasn't Important. Dumbledore would have not asked him to come. That late evening, after the meeting. Dumbledore took Harry to the Burrow. Where he'd spend the remainder of The Summer Holidays with the Weasleys, Ari and Hermione.

The reunion between him and his close friends was a surprising one for everyone. But sweet. Everyone as usual was more than happy to see Harry. Arianna was relieved, when she saw that Harry was in one piece and okay. She and Hermione always worried the most. Especially with the Death-Eaters out and about. It was easy for them to get to Harry, especially after last year.

The remainder of the Summer, was quite nice. One afternoon Harry was in Hogsmead with Ron, Hermione, Ginny and Arianna. The four had just visited Fred and George's Magical shop of treat and tricks. It was quite a merry, amusing place. Ginny had been teased by the Twins, for dating Dean Thomas. After Ginny broke away from the group. Harry walked through the streets with his Best-Friends. As they walked past Olivander's. Hermione and Ari stopped on the spot. The shop looked empty...and a mess. Liked it had been raided by Death-Eaters no less.

"Oh no, everyone got their wands from Olivanders." Hermione breathed out, looking sad to see the once great wand shop so destroyed.

Arianna sighed, as she looked at the shop. She remembered Mr Olivander and his Kindness. She had visited him a few times, any time she was in Hogsmead. She being one of the few Students, whom liked to talk to him. "Death-Eaters no doubt." she said with a shake of her head.

Narcissa Malfoy, had been nervous about the meeting her children would go into. But she knew the Dark Lord, wanted the twins. She was proud of them. She knew her Draco and beloved Minnie could do it. She couldn't loose her children. Not them. It was bad enough, that her Lucius was arrested and in the middle of a trial.

Draco was angry...seething. His father was arrested! The young Malfoy, was always bitter about it. Especially if anyone dared ask. But he had other things to think about. Like keeping his twin sister safe. When his mother said it was time. He tugged at Minerva's hand "It's time Minnie..We have to go." he told his sister. Draco squeezed her hand softly. As if he was reassuring her, things would be fine.

The trio began to make their way, towards Borgen and Burks.
