Reborn In Harry Potter - Chapter 17 Renovation

The next few weeks was incredibly eye opening for Ron, his siblings and is friends as they saw how powerful, incredible and useful magic could be. Although Sirius, Harry and the Weasley’s were in agreement that both Sirius and Harry should move to the Burrow, the living s.p.a.ce wasn’t capable of holding two more members for long periods of time. And so, the kids witnessed their parents working together with other Wizards and Witches, Goblins and a pretty rude House Elf and turning the Burrow into a House worthy of holding one of the oldest collection of Ancient Magical Tomes, Grimoires and books of history of the Wizarding world. Honestly, Ron had never had to focus on his Occlumency so hard, just to keep in his laughter, “I can’t believe you would have these books just laying around your study! What would you do if someone were to steal them?!” Sirius had just finished when Amos joined in and asked Arthur to explain himself, “These books contain ancient knowledge that in the wrong hands would bring horrific results! What were you thinking?!”. Arthur looked at them and meekly said, “Well, these books have been sitting there for a long time and honestly, we didn’t even know they existed!”

This time it wasn’t just Sirius and Amos, the rest of the adults present joined in and started to `give suggestions’ to Molly and Arthur. Even the mild mannered Remus joined in and started to shout with the others. The only reason they stopped was that Pandora and Blaire sent Kreacher to get Molly as it was dinner time. “Go away Kreacher! We are busy at the moment!” Sirius shouted at Kreacher but instead of going away, he just looked at Molly with a slight fear in his eyes and almost jumped up and down in joy when she walked into the kitchen with him. “What just happened?” only Sirius and Remus were still in shock and standing in the living room at this point as Amos, Xenophilius and Arthur had joined their wives at the dining table. Even the kids who were listening in on their `conversation’ with Molly and Arthur had taken seat at the table. Whilst Sirius and Remus were looking around with confusion in their eyes, they remembered the last time they had rejected a dinner call from their friend Lily and Ron was once again thankful for his Occlumency as he saw the two walk in and sit down like they weren’t deathly afraid of the three mothers currently sat next to their husbands. But it was all for naught as the next second, Pollux Black laughed at their predicament and offered them some `friendly advice’!

“If I was you, I wouldn’t be late as next time the punishment might be higher than an empty plate. *Hahaha*” although Sirius and Remus wanted to say something back to the old man sat at the Head Seat, they didn’t dare as they looked at the three wives respectfully offering food to `Grandpa Black’. At the start of his stay at the Burrow, the place the `Heir of House’ was going to stay at. Pollux was a bit stuck up and constantly talked about how much better the Black Family House was. As a reward, the adults had asked the kids to surround him each moment of the day and constantly ask him questions about Wizarding Etiquette, Old History and really anything they found interesting. Although the Weasley Kids and their friends were young, they could see that the old man was hurt and was suffering from loneliness, a little bit like Harry. So, they didn’t pressure him like their parents had asked and instead slowly wore him down and convinced him that it was his job to `bring up the next generation properly’. At first, the old man was uncomfortable with the sound of `Grandpa Black’. But no one aside form cruel, heartless monsters can resist puppy dog eyes from eight kids, simultaneously. A few days after the short episode of `Precious Books should be stored in a more secure place’, the renovation of the Burrow was done and it looked amazing!

Instead of looking like a large stone pigpen with extra rooms added here and there until it was several stories high and so crooked it looked as though it were held up by magic, it was an actual three story cottage that actually looked more like a mansion! Both the inside and outside was beautifully decorated but the most amazing part was that it was still somehow very welcoming and cosy and didn’t at all feel flashy and ostentatious. “*Humph* I can’t believe that you are satisfied with this! This house is going to host the presence of at least four families that have possessions and relations to highly regarded figures in Wizarding History and is home to my Grandkids, Pollux Black’s Grandkids!!” honestly, none of the adults were even breathing at the moment and were just letting the old man scold them for not spending enough of his money. Finally, the kids came back from their tour of the house and the adults sighed in relief when the old man’s attention shifted to the two little girls asking for a hug. Ron was very happy and satisfied with his life at this point but he knew that with the threat of Voldemort’s return, he would have to step up his preparation. But he now had an extra layer of security and protection and even a new source of knowledge and an actual teacher!!

It was during the time the Weasley Ancestral Land’s Wards were being renewed and empowered that while `taking a look’, Ron decided to throw in a couple of High Level Runic Objects near the Ward Stones and thought nothing of it but at the last location he heard someone coming and in panic shot several spells at the person, `Incendio!’ `Diffindo!’ `Glacies!’ `Ventus!’. In his anxiousness, he even shot a Jinx, `Flipendo!’ and ony then saw the person he had cast the spells at. Before he could try to warn the person, Ron saw how easily the old man dealth with his spells and he realised, he hadn’t even touched the tip of what real Wizards could do. “Well, Well, Well! Little Ron is quite the young wizard, aren’t you? Casting spells in a chain, without chanting and with accuracy not fit for your age. But none of that compares to this, a Magical Object that has Ancient Runes drawn with Magical Reagent Ink, very impressive!”
