The three of them apperated outside the Weasleys Wizard Wheezes. George got out a key from his pocket, unlocking the door. After George went in, Fred held the door open for Irena. Irena looked around and saw that there were boxes piled to the ceiling. There were rows of shelves filled with products, and there was a second floor too. They started to walk. "These are Skiving Snackboxes we perfected during our unfinished year at Hogwarts," said Fred. The Nosebleed Nougat the most popular, with only one battered box left on the shelf. There were bins full of trick wands, the cheapest merely turning into rubber chickens.
Next to the Skiving Snackboxes were the Canary Creams. "It has the appearance and taste of ordinary custard creams but transfigures the eater into a huge canary," said George holding one in his hand.
"We developed this last summer," said Fred, holding an ear. "It's an extendable ear; one end is attached to the listeners ear, and the other is placed near where the listener wants to overhear."
George was holding a toffee "this is a ton tongue toffee; it makes your tongue swell up to ten times its normal size and took us about six months to develop."
"This is cool. Look, Instant Darkness Powder, were importing it from Peru," said George. "And our Decoy Detonators are just walking off the shelves, look," said Fred, pointing at several weird-looking black horn-type objects that were indeed attempting to scurry out of sight. "You just drop one surreptitiously, and it'll run off and make a nice loud noise out of sight, giving you a diversion if you need one." Impressive, she thought.
Irena saw near the window an array of overwhelmingly pink products she assumed were some kind of love potion. "Those over there are Pygmy Puffs," said George pointing at several round balls of fluff in shades of pink and purple, all rolling around the bottom of a cage and emitting high-pitched squeals. Fred looking around, said, "oh, and you have seen our portable swamp."

After Fred and George were done showing her the shop, the door opened, and a woman with short blonde hair entered. "Good morning, Mr. Weasley and Mr. Weasley," said the blonde woman. "Morning, Verity," both Fred and George said at the same time. That's Verity, we recently hired her, and she's helping us with the shop, said Fred.
Customers started to come in. Fred and George were naturals selling their products to people. Everyone that came in left with something. Irena tried to help out, but Fred wouldn't let her carry anything heavy. She went to the back and found a box filled with products that needed to be restocked. She used wingardium leviosa, the levitation charm, and brought it with her to the front. She also used the levitation charm to help her with the shelves that needed to restock that were too high up.
Because they were closing the shop earlier, Verity had already left. Fred and George were counting the money and fixing a few things. Once they finished, they went to the flat where they would go through floo powder to the burrow.
George had already left. Fred was walking to the fireplace when he noticed that Irena was playing with her hands and looking at her bump. Fred walked up to her and held her hands. :What's wrong, Rena?" "Fred, this are huge news. What if your family reacts the same as my p-parents," Irena said, looking at Fred. "They won't, I promise they might be a bit surprised at the beginning, but they are going to love you and our child. Mum might go mental, though," Fred said, the last part a bit quieter.
Hand in hand, both walked to the fireplace. Fred took a pinch of glittering powder out of the flowerpot, and they both stepped up to the fire and threw the powder into the flames. With a roar, the fire turned emerald green and rose higher than Fred and Irena and shouted, "The Burrow!" and vanished.

A Broken World [Dropped Pending Rewrite]
This work has been dropped- because I am rewriting it. Look forward to the new and improved "A Broken World," now available HERE on Royal Road! Three thousand years ago, Demonic creatures invaded the world. Though their power seemed irresitable, a band of heroes managed to steal the knowledge of summoning rituals and worlds from them and created, "The Millenial Summoning." A powerful magic that would bring forth a being from another world with the power to change the world forever. The first being summoned became known as "The Speaker," and he brought the power of the Gods with him. Teaching prayers and invocations that blessed humanities legions and began to push back the demons, founding of the "The Church of the Spoken Word" rose to power and a stalemate was reached. Two thousand years ago, that stalemate was broken by the second casting of "The Millenial Summoning," and the arrival of "The First Sorceress," who taught humanity the basics of magic and enchanting. With the power of the Sorceress, the mages, and the priests the tide turned and the Demonic hordes began to be shoved back, signaling hopes of a golden age for mankind. One thousand years ago, the hopes of final victory and a new dawn for mankind were dashed by traitors who slew the participants of the ritual and took their places, using the ritual to bring forth a godlike being from the demons home world, "The Demon King," for no human knew his name, erased millenia of growth reducing humanity to barely a fragment of its former glory. Now the ritual is being cast again, and a new being is being summoned... In our world, after nearly two decades of studious work, Luke Jaeger is making his dream come true.

Despite the challange of getting his business running, Lucas feels that his work has finally paid off. Lucas's car never left the banks lot, nor was Lucas ever seen again in our world.
