Harry appeared behind a tall stand of evergreens with a small pop. He shook out his leather trench coat and cut through the tiny park to twelve Grimmauld Place. Harry had sold the property to Hermione for ten galleons over the Christmas of their last year in Hogwarts with immense pleasure at the thought of the former Black property being owned by a Muggleborn Gryffindor. Then he had helped her unravel the wards before clearing and remodelling the structure into a more modern duplex. The upper level was leased to a Halfblood Healer and his Muggleborn wife who worked as a clerk for the Ministry. Hermione lived in the lower level that was warded against outsiders and reinforced to contain any spillovers from her at-home experiments.
