Sky knocked on the door of the Burrow and waited for someone to open it. It was Charlie. "I was wondering how long it would take you."

"Hello to you too. Do they know?" She asked.

"No. Should I tell them?"

"Not everything," Charlie knew what she meant.

"Hey guys, remember that trip I took to Greece to help them set up a dragon reserve there?" Charlie turned, blocking Sky from view, and addressed his family. "I ran into someone there who's finally decided to come here," with that, Charlie stepped out of the way and Sky entered the house.

"Hi guys," Nervously, she tucked a long strand of black hair behind her ear. Every Weasley she knew was there, including three people she didn't know. A brunette witch and raven haired wizard were on either side of Ron and a blonde witch, who looked part Veela to Sky, sat beside Bill. The blonde woman had her hand resting on Bill's arm and she could see the diamond engagement ring on her finger.

"Sky?" Bill asked in complete disbelief. She nodded. "Sky!" He jumped up and pulled her into his arms. She imeadiately returned his embrace and buried her face against his shoulder.

Each member of the family took their turns hugging her until only Molly and Ginny were left. Ginny pulled Sky's necklace off and held it in the palm of her hand. It caused Sky to laugh, though her eyes also teared because the girl had kept it around her neck. "Keep it, Ginny. After all, you've kept it safe for me so far." Ginny grinned, put it back on, and hugged Sky as tightly as she could.

"You are horrible! Making me worry about you like that! Do you have any idea how worried I was about you? Don't you EVER do that to me again, understand me?"

"You got it, Mum," Sky swore, hugging Molly for all she was worth. "I love you too," she whispered against Molly's hair. The Weasley Matriarch hugged her tighter. Finally, she was released.

"Bill, 'Oo is zis?" The blonde asked. French, wonderful, Sky thought.

"Fleur, this is my best friend from school, Sky Carroll. Sky, this is my fiancee, Fleur Delacour," Sky could feel all of the Weasleys waiting for her reaction.

"It's wonderful to meet you, Fleur," she smiled.

"And you," Fleur returned her smile.

"Sky, this is my best mate, Harry Potter, and my girlfriend Hermione Granger. Guys, Sky."

"Hello guys," she smiled at them and sat in the chair Charlie directed her to. "So, other than an impending wedding, what is new in the world of Weasleys?"

That was all it took for everyone to launch into a story about what they'd been up to for nine years. Sky listened with a grin on her face. She would occasionally reach up to play with the engagement ring she now wore on a chain around her neck as she listened.

"What about you, Sky?" Arthur broke through his children's voices after a while.

"Well, I moved to Greece about a week after my parents were killed," she got quiet for a moment. "I live with a girl named Rain, actually," she smiled at the thought of the blonde woman. "Um, I work as a Curse Breaker. Most of our work is done on the temples and such, but we've been brought in to work on the Egyptian pyramids a few times. There was this one time that a team of Curse Breakers got stuck in one of the Egyptian pyramids, and none of the other teams could get them out so they had to call Greece."

"No! Please don't tell me that you were on the team that..."

"...bailed your arses out? No," Bill relaxed. "I headed that team," she smirked. "That was your team?"

"I was on it. It was Leland's team. Haruki and I kept trying to get him to turn back and he wouldn't listen to us."

"So wait, what happened after you got them out?" Ginny asked.

"Aki, Kashi, Nikoleta, Fay, and I finished Breaking the pyramid for the poor boys and went home. The medical team was right behind us so we went straight past Bill and his team."

"Wait, where are the others from?" Hermione asked.

"Aki is Japanese, Kashi is from India, Nikoleta is Greek, and Fay is from the USA."

"I've heard about you five. You're the only all girl team in our field," Bill remembered.

"We also happen to be the best," Sky added with a smirk at Bill. "Wait a second, how long ago did you leave Egypt?"

"Roughly three years ago, why?" Sky started giggling.

"Because, three years ago and almost monthly since then, Hatim Saab has been visiting me to plead with me to take a job in Egypt. Apparently, their best Curse Breaker went home to England a little over a three years ago and they haven't been able to replace him yet, so they want me to come down."

"Wait! You're who they're thinking of replacing me with?" Bill asked, shocked again.

Sky looked at him for a second and started laughing full out. "Not thinking, Bill. It's up to me whether or not I go now."

"But you love Greek history."

"I'm aware of that. It's no where near as complex as Egyptian. But it would be a nice change of pace for me. There are more curses on the pyramids than there are on the temples, after all."

"You'll get yourself killed in those pyramids without the rest of your team," Bill decided.

"According to your old boss, I can easily take you down if I want to, Billy," Sky raised a challenging eyebrow.

"Not a chance," Bill scoffed.

"Actually, I think I'll owl Hatim tomorrow and tell him I'll do it," she looked pensive though her lips twitched upward as she fought a grin.

"Not in the house you two!" Molly broke in. As much as she didn't like her children fighting, magically or otherwise, she was thrilled that Sky was home and that there was a sense of normalicy between the two of them.

Bill grabbed Sky's arm and Apparated them out into the back yard. He released her and backed up. "Prove it, Sky. Prove to me that you can do my job."

"Better than you can," Sky added with a smirk. She didn't need to look to know that everyone had followed them. Bill growled and threw the first curse. Their duel began. Finally he hit her with a full body-bind. She fell, immobile, to the ground and stared up at him as he approached.

"See, Sky, you can't best me. You're just not that good," he leaned over her prone form.

Her arm flew up, grabbed him behind the neck and yanked him to the ground. She pinned him to the ground and said, "Every good Curse Breaker can do a little wandless magic and nonverbal magic, Billy. And really, if your the best Egypt had, I'm surprised they haven't called me in sooner." She could hear the laughter of the rest of the Weasleys as she smirked down at Bill.

He went to flip her onto her back and she jumped up and out of his reach. He charged at her, completely forgetting his wand for the moment, and she flipped out of his path. She hit him with Levicorpus and he was lifted into the air by his ankle. "Sky!"

"Oh that's right, you never did figure out the counter curse to this one, did you? Pity that. Guess you'll just have to stay up there until you pass out from all the blood rushing to your head," she shrugged, gleefully smirking.

"Sky, let me down!"

"No."

"Now!"

"Nope."

"Please?"

"Lemme think about it. No."

"Ugh, fine! You are a better Curse Breaker than I am and could easily do my job."

"Brace yourself," she intoned the counter curse and he fell, easily rolling himself so he didn't get hurt. "Never doubt me, Bill."

"Seriously, are you going to take the job?"

"I have to talk to Rain first, actually. But I do kind of want to stay in Greece."

A/N: It's kind of short, but all of the chapters will be, unfortunately. It's only intended to be a short story. In case you wanted to know, while I was looking up names, I found one you might find entertaining. Yuri is a Japanese name meaning lily. It made me giggle. -Cora
