"Wake up, Serina!"

"Gah!"

Fred's magically amplified voice shook the floor beneath Serina and she fell out of bed. Luckily the floor of the Weasley twin's new home was carpeted and the landing was somewhat comfortable. Serina was up on her feet in a matter of moments seeing as today they were finally getting their first shipment of products they had ordered months in advance to have made in mass quantities. Serina searched through her drawer and slipped on a pair of dark jeans, some leather boots, and a red tank top. As she ran down stairs to join Fred in the shop they had been living above for the past week, Serina tied Mrs. Weasley's hand knitted sweater around her hips.

"How do they look?" Fred answered her enthusiastic question by pushing the box of shipments towards her. There were many products that Serina knew of already like the decoy detonators, fainting fancies, love potions, instant darkness powder, patented daydream charms, and much more. Then Serina came upon a peculiar item that she hadn't seen before. Serina held up and long black cloak with a hood questioningly. "What on earth is this?" She asked her business partner curiously. I little last minute product I thought up after the little scare you put on at the room of requirement. I call it 'The Cloak of the Hogwarts Reaper.'" Serina uttered a confused 'huh' as George pulled the cloak over his head. When the cloak fell to the ground and the hood lay over his head, Serina saw Fred's figure become hers and what looked like locks of brown hair drape down from beneath the hood. Also, there was an eerie smile plastered on his face and when he spoke he sounded like Serina did when she taunted Draco. "What do you think?" Fred spoke in a hollow voice. "I'm thinking it will be one of the scariest and most popular Halloween costumes ever. There will be mes running around everywhere." She said with a chuckle.

George removed the cloak and handed it to Serina who placed it on the table and grabbed her own cloak and pulled the hood over her head. "I don't need a magical one. I'm the original." Her hollow and eerie voice both shook and impressed Fred. "You put up the sign and decorations outside while I get everything in here ready." Serina nodded from beneath her hood and followed him outside to setup all the things they had had shipped in to adorn the outside of the shop. The arrangement of everything was complicated but it only took Serina a little more than an hour to figure it out and put everything in place. While she was outside there were a few frightened faces from on lookers who saw her wearing he dark cloak and when she waved at them and smiled they sped quickly away which made her laugh.

Once the arrangements outside were complete, Serina returned to the inside of the shop that was nearly done. She assisted Fred with shelving the last of the products and each of them took their time to look at and admire their work. Fred glanced to the side surprised to see that Serina looked solemn. "George would love to be here right now…" Fred smiled solemnly. "Yeah, I bet." Serina blinked back some teas and smiled brightly.

~Meanwhile at Serina's House~

"So how did the test go, George?" Conner asked and George removed the spell that disguised him. "I can't believe I aced it." George replied. "Serina will be happy to hear that." Sean said with a grin.

Then at the exact same time as though they had a telepathic force between the George and Serina both said, "Looks like my work is done here."

The lights inside the shop flickered once and Fred and Serina stared up at the lights. The lights began to flicker more and more. "What's going on with the electricity?" Serina asked. "It could be a prank." Fred reasoned. The lights were flickering at an alarming rate and a sudden wind blew the doors open with a loud bang. Serina felt a strange sensation travel from her head to her feet and she turned to Fred in realization. "Fred!" Serina ran towards him from behind the counter in the shop with her hands outstretched. "Serina!?" Fred turned about and each out hand out to grab hers but was too late. Serina felt herself falling and fell into darkness. Everything around her disappeared and cold wind swirled around her as she fell. She opened her eyes and when she thought she would be opening up to nothing she saw a figure falling in the opposite direction. George was tumbling in the direction Serina was falling from, his bright red hair clearly visible to her. The two of them made eye contact for a moment and then passed each other and vanished from sight.

The wind stopped and Serina found herself sitting on a hard wood floor. "Hey what happened to the lights!?" said a familiar male voice. "George, are you okay?" said a familiar female voice. The lights flickered slightly and then came back on in full brightness. Sedona, Conner, and Sean looked to where George had been sitting and instead saw their dear friend clad in a dark cloak. "Serina!" They all screamed joyfully as they lifted her to her feet and embraced her tightly. "I'm home!? It's so good to see you all again!" Serina said pulling the hood off her head. "We've missed you so much, even though you've only been gone for a month!" Sean stated. "Only a month?" Serina questioned. "Forget the details. Tell us everything!" Sedona demanded. Serina smiled and had them all sit down to retell the happenings at Hogwarts that year.

Only a month had passed after Serina's return home and she had been receiving regular flu powder messages from Fred, George, Harry and the others while her parents were asleep. One night while Serina was busy typing a story on her laptop, preparing for an upcoming event, there was a voice coming from the fireplace. "Hello there, Miss Reaper." called Fred's voice from the fire. Fred and George's faces were smiling at her through the flickering green flames. "Hello, you guys. How's the shop doing?" "It's doing really well and people really love the grim reaper robes." George said with a chuckle. "Hey Serina was up with the wig?" Fred asked. Serina removed the long blonde braided wig and responded, "Oh it is part of my costume for a convention I'm going to tomorrow. I'm hosting a panel on writing fan fictions. I just finished posting one on the internet now." Serina said gesturing to the laptop. "Oh, what's it called?" Fred asked.

"Banished Alchemist."
