Day 1
Mad-Eye Moody laughed gruffly, his normal eye and his magical eye separately examining each person in turn as the adults walked in a circle around the Arch and the kids. When he came behind Neville, he suddenly feinted an attack. Neville jumped in confused alarm, crying out and waving his wand incoherently. “This should be interesting,” Mad-Eye growled. Neville gathered himself together and stared at Mad-Eye defiantly, wand now at the ready. Harry was looking to Sirius as though craving reassurance, recognition. But Sirius was cold to him, suspicious and sad. Tonks and Lupin could not meet each others’ eyes. Mrs. Weasley kept pointing her wand at different people, wanting someone to attack, but avoiding looking at her two children. Luna stood idly, her wand at her side, contemplating Kingsley, whose upright bearing seemed to indicate his wish to create order, protect, and lead. Herminone seemed to be calculating furiously, while Ron stood between her and Harry looking bewildered, unsure what he should be doing. Prof. McGonagall’s lips were pressed in the thinnest of lines, as if containing great emotion and great power as well. Ginny was alert but calm, with her wand raised and determination, not fear, on her face.
“So,” said Kingsley, “here we are. Let us proceed.”
