When: New Years Eve, 1998
Where: The Burrow, a remote English suburb
What: The Order of the Phoenix jailbreaks Azkaban, and the girls are help out

*~*~*~*~*

Ora stuffed her sash and a spare change of clothes in her bag, and bounded down the stairs to grab her winter coat from the closet in the hallway. "Mum! Dad! I'm ready!" she shouted, stuffing her arms through the sleeves and doing a quick check through the list in her mind to make sure she had packed everything she needed, and everything that would make it seem like she was going to a legitimate sleepover at the Burrow.

"Mm hm," Ora's father said simply as he folded his copy of The Daily Prophet and set it down on the sitting room table. He shot his daughter a dubious look. Ora smiled up at him cheerfully, as if nothing was wrong. She mitigated it a little when her father's look turned more severe.

"You know if you get lost, Ora, you're breaking curfew."

Ora rolled her eyes. "Yeah, Dad, I know. But I'm eighteen! I can Apparate properly; I'm not going to get lost or end up in the middle of the woods."

Ambassador Yang's mouth twitched as if he didn't completely believe his daughter, but had to actually refrain from telling her so. "I'll leave the wards down for five minutes," he said simply, drawing his wand from the fold of his robes, "so if you get lost you can Apparate back."

"Okay, Dad," Ora said. She rolled her eyes again.

"Have you got everything?" Ora's mum asked. She rose from the couch and looked pointedly at Ora's bag.

"Yup," Ora said with a nod. "And if not, I'm sure Alison can lend me something."

"Toothbrush?"

Ora nodded. "Packed it already, Mum."

Ora's mother simply nodded and smiled, and came around the sofa to give her daughter a hug and a kiss. "Well, Happy New Year, and enjoy the night with your friends."

"Thanks!" Ora gave her mum and dad a hug and a kiss each. Her father still did not look entirely happy as he closed his eyes and hummed the chant to lift the anti-Apparition wards surrounding their house, but Ora still managed a smile as she waved and then thought very hard of the Burrow.

*~*~*~*~*

Ottery St. Catchpole was even colder than London, and even in a thick scarf and coat Ora was shivering. She had appeared about one hundred meters out from the Burrow, and was throughly cold by the time she got to the door and lifted a hand to knock politely at it. Even though the house seemed quiet from the outside, Ora wondered if anyone would hear here--after all, she could not imagine that a rescue the proportions of breaking in and out of Azkaban would take any less than a good chunk of the Order.

The crowded kitchen was a relief after last night's madness, but while the food beckoned Kahvi found she was a bit more hungry to hear the details of her friends' night. Alison appeared to none the worse for the encounter, and Ora was displaying a healthy appetite, so they did not appear to be suffering any significant trauma. The room full of people, however, made her feel awkward asking, so she quietly took a big scoop of hash browns and a slice of the aromatic coffee cake, listening to the chatter of the others in the room.

Was she imagining it, or was one of the older Weasley boys giving her a funny look? Kahvi elected to focus her attentions on the hash browns...

[OOC: Yep, Kilauea is a minor celebrity of a sort both for her handling of dragons and for the rarity of her island's species (Tarikhaan volcanic) in the dragon enthusiast communities, and Kahvi appears pictured in a lot of the articles with her mother. I keep meaning to type up that Dragon Fancy article--I'll have to remind myself when I get back from vacation.

It's probably not prudent for Charlie to bring this up in front of the rest of the Weasleys/Order, however... I imagine it might cause a bit of an uproar to discover that the future ruler of a tropical island kingdom is having breakfast in your kitchen, not to mention Mrs. Weasley possibly feeling horrible about "endangering" Kahvi's life in the events of the previous night. There's a lot of possible political trouble there :/ And she's probably going to catch enough flack from the Snogs girls for not telling them without worrying about more people knowing ^^;;]
