The Weasley's had gotten to Grimmauld place a few weeks before Aries had. She had never really met the family as they were 'beneath' the Black family. But they were nice enough, even if Molly and Sirius didn't see eye to eye. It seemed they argued at every dinner.

Daisy had become fascinated by the Weasley twins and their inventions; she had been strongly advised by Aries not to eat anything they gave her, Leo also had to be warned.

They had order meetings almost everyday, soundproofing the door so the kids didn't use extendable ears (another Weasley invention) to eavesdrop.

The first couple of weeks Aries trained extensively with Chloe to practice her defensive spells. She surprised herself when she could remember a lot more than she thought she could.

"It's like riding a bike." she said after a session.

"Keep it up like that you'll be on your first mission soon." Chloe replied, impressed. Tonks also joined in on their sessions. It felt weird to Aries knowing the girls when they were younger and now they were helping her train.

The rest of their time they spent cleaning and disinfecting Grimmauld Place. The ten years Walburga Black had been dead, the Noble house of Black had been left in the hands of the family house elf, although since the death of his mistress, Kreacher, had not cleaned a single inch of the house.

He was also not happy that the two disowned blood traitors were back, he would spend his days muttering nonsense under his breath.

"Can't we just send him to someone else or give him some clothes or something?" Aries asked one morning after Kreacher had moaned about his mistress and how upset she would be.

"He knows too much," Sirius shook his head. "Plus, do you really want to be the one to tell him he can't be beheaded and put up on the hall of famous houselves, I can only imagine the tantrum he would throw."

"Does he not remind you of Gollum?" Leo asked.

Aries choked on her tea as she held in a laugh. "You can't call him Gollum, Leo."

"Who's Gollum?" Sirius asked.

"He's a character from a book, used to be a man but was so obsessed with the one ring he turned into a wrinkly old thing."

"Well Kreacher is a wrinkly old thing." Sirius agreed

"He's gonna start calling mother 'My precious.'" Aries chuckled.

Chloe walked into the kitchen with a few letters, Daisy was tailing behind her eagerly.

"Anything for me?" she asked.

Chloe shook her head. "Sorry, Dais, nothing yet."

Aries furrowed her brows, "It's almost August, how has it not arrived yet?"

Daisy frowned. "What if I don't get to go?"

"Surely it's just a mistake." Sirius reassured her. "I bet the owl got lost."
