Chapter 50<br />
The last month of school was quiet. The Castle was fixed by the end of the day that Professor<br />
McGonagall had made her announcement. The only seemingly exciting thing was that Gryffindor won<br />
the Quidditch cup. "A great way for a great team to go out," the commentator had said.<br />
Ginny had sworn she'd seen Gwenog Jones sitting in the st<strong>and</strong>s, but had not been able to confirm it.<br />
They had all been studying hard for their NEWTs <strong>and</strong> in the first week of June, they took them.<br />
The NEWTs went well. <strong>Harry</strong> didn't have much trouble with Herbology, Charms or Transfiguration. He<br />
had no trouble what so ever with Defense Against the Dark Arts. Potions had been the only test he<br />
really worried about not passing, <strong>and</strong> afterwards he didn't think he had done too badly. In comparing<br />
some of the written answers he could remember with Hermione they had answered the same for most<br />
of them, <strong>and</strong> when he compared the potion he was supposed to make with hers it had been nearly<br />
identical. Ron's <strong>and</strong> Hermione's NEWTs went just as well, <strong>and</strong> Ginny seemed to think she passed hers<br />
with flying colors, not that she needed them.<br />
Just after the final NEWT had finished, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Ginny had gotten a note from<br />
Professor Slughorn, asking her to come to his office. She <strong>and</strong> <strong>Harry</strong> were sitting by the lake at the time,<br />
<strong>and</strong> he had come along.<br />
When they arrived at Professor Slughorn's office they were greeted by the round teacher. "Ah, Ms.<br />
Weasley, Mr. <strong>Potter</strong>, come in, come in." He had said with a large smile on his face. As he stepped aside<br />
another figure was revealed inside the room. "I believe you've both met Ms. Gwenog Jones before," he<br />
said.<br />
"Yes, we have," said Ginny, a huge smile on her face.<br />
"Well Ginny," started Gwenog, "I promised you last summer that if you played well this year the<br />
Chaser position was yours. And you played fantastically, I watched your last match, some of the shots<br />
you took were extremely risky, <strong>and</strong> they all paid off. Your one of the best Chasers I've ever seen, you<br />
could go international if you wanted."<br />
Ginny just stared at the Quidditch captain.<br />
"Ginny, I'm offering you the position," said Jones. "Do you want to be a Chaser for the Hollyhead<br />
Harpies?"<br />
"Yes," Ginny managed to choke out after a few seconds.<br />
"Good, I have to finalize some things with your contract before you can sign it. This visit was just to<br />
make sure that you weren't snatched up by some other team. Legally I'm not allowed to make you an<br />
offer until you graduate." Gwenog gave her w<strong>and</strong> a quick flick <strong>and</strong> suddenly a set of robes was floating<br />
in front of Ginny. They were dark green with a large golden talon on the front. As the robes turned<br />
around Weasley was visible on the back in gold lettering.<br />
"Wow," said Ginny, absolutely amazed by the robes, "although there is one thing I'd like to change<br />
about them."<br />
Gwenog looked at the young Chaser with a questioning look.<br />
"Kidding," said Ginny, thoroughly embarrassed. She felt a bit redeemed as <strong>Harry</strong> let out a small<br />
chuckle.<br />
"Come on babe, let's go tell everybody," said <strong>Harry</strong>.
