-My parents are dead-

Ginny Weasley cried her eyes out, that's was the only thought that had been running through her head for the last couple days. It was now the day after their funeral. They had gotten into a car crash with their new magical car on their way to an anniversary vacation for just the two of them.

Ron was staying with Harry and his godfather Sirius, who had finally been proven innocent. George and Fred were staying with their friend Lee Jordan. Charlie, Bill, and Percy all had their own homes. She didn't want to impose on her brothers, so she when she got a letter from her long-lost cousin offering her a place to stay, she couldn't refuse. Her brothers didn't try to convince her otherwise. Perhaps it was wrong, but she saw that as abandonment. She supposed she was kind of testing them, to see if they would let her go. They did.

Dear Ginevra,

I have just recently started a family-tree and you can imagine my surprise when I discover that my father had a sister named Molly Weasley. After much research I learned about your mother and your family, as well as hers and your father's untimely deaths. I am truly sorry, and offer you a place to stay at my home. Just give me the sign and I will send for you. My offer stands for your brothers as well, but I hear they already have someplace to go. Once again, I am sorry about your loss, and please forgive my bluntness.

Sincerely, Lara Croft

Ginny figured she had nothing to lose, so she replied saying:

Dear Lara,

I accept your invitation, and would like to thank you for doing this for me, I appreciate it. I just need a way to get there.

Sincerely, Ginevra Weasley

She got her reply several hours later; the woman had a fast owl.

Dear Ginevra,

I am glad that you can come. I understand that you live at a place called The Burrow, and am sending someone to get you by helicopter (a muggle machine that flies- you can't miss it). I live in England also, so it shouldn't take too long

Lara

Ginny waited a while and soon enough, a muggle contraption landed in her yard. She grabbed her suitcase and all her school things (she had already closed up the house) and went out to the strange device that was called a helicopter.

"Are you Ginevra Weasley?" The man who controlled the machine asked.

"Yes"

"Then come on in"

Ginny got in after putting her luggage in before her, and the machine flew up into the sunny, afternoon sky.

Ginevra Weasley was in for an interesting summer.
