Ron Weasley: A Noble's Ascension

"*If you use an Idea from another Fan-fic is it plageraism? How about when it's become a staple in most of them? We'll here's my writers take on it.*"

After they'd arrived from the Greengrass Manor, his father retold the story of his battle with Draco which first angered his family but when he got to the ending they burst into cheers. His entire family wasn't present since his three older brothers were attending Hogwarts, but the the twins and his sister wished they'd seen the Malfoys faces when he revealed his Potion. His mother, who was always protective of all of them couldn't believe that he'd be able to not only stand up to those snobs but actually impress them.

"Ron sweety... go get yourself clean and go to bed."

That was the first time that Ron saw his mother act kinda bashful, so he didn't say anything and went upstairs. His dad, brothers and sister were also shocked but quickly dispersed when she glared at them while holding her wand.

-

As Ron was reading a book about the brain, he was able to hear faint whispers coming from downstairs. Curious as to who was still up he cast a silent charm and slowly opened his door.

"(What are we going to do, Arthur?)"

"(I don't know this is Bill's last year, Charlie still has two more to go and thats not counting Percy and the twins.)"

"(Maybe if I can find a job...)"

"(Molly, what about Ginny?)"

"(But Arthur you said it yourself Ron's a genius what kind of parents would we be if we hold him Back?)"

"(I'll try to get some extra work, and I'll see if I can take out another loan but don't worry we'll figure something out. We always do.)"

-

Ron closed his door and went to sit on his bed while thinking about what he'd just overheard.

*Sigh*

"*To think that mom said she's holding me back... F.u.c.k, I didn't want to resort to it but I guess waiting won't help me now.*"

-

Early the next day, Ron waited for his dad outside, because if he needed something his dad would almost always comply.

"Huh, what's wrong son? Why are you up so early?"

"Dad, I wanted to ask you a favor."

"Eh, let me guess you asked your mother and she declined?"

"No, not necessarily. I want to go to the Muggle world."

His sudden request surprised his dad, who didn't know what to say. He'd always been interested in the Muggle world but it wasnt something many others shared.

"Why do you want to go to the Muggle World?"

"I heard that there was going to be some sort of event held today, and I wanted to go check it out."

"Who told you that?"

Prepared for that question Ron quickly explained that he overheard some a.d.u.l.ts from yesterday's party talking about it.

"Hmm, I don't know I mean you're still young and don't know how to properly defend yourself."

"Dad, you saw me yesterday you know that I'm a very cautious person. I don't do anything I'm not sure I can handle... trust me."

When he said that last part Ron intentionally paused for dramatic effect, which totally worked.

"Fine, but don't tell your mother or siblings okay?"

Quickly nodding in agreement, his dad headed inside and told his mother that he was taking Ron to a friend's house one he'd made yesterday. His mother who was actively trying to make him make friends accepted and didn't question them further.

"Go on then and make sure to bring your friend next time!"

With her blessing the two stepped in to their chimney and headed towards the Ministry of Magic.

-

The headquarters of the Ministry of Magic is located in London deep underground. When Ron and his father arrived at the Ministry he saw a large and vast hall gilded with fireplaces where countless witches and wizards were arriving and leaving.The floor looked like it had just been polished and the ceiling had several blue and golden symbols moving across it.

"*It's just like the movies...*"

"Ron, let's go I've got to get to work. I'll take you to the lift and you can go from there."

"Yeah, no problem."

Making there way across the Grand Hall he was able to see a golden fountain with all kinds of races. They were eventually stopped by a ragged man who asked for his father's wand. After checking the wand he nodded and let them throught they then entered another smaller hall with a series of lifts.

"Alright get in, your going to the first floor which is occupied by offices, when you arrived head right and you'll be outside, in London."

"Alright, I got it."

"Remember to come back here at 4 and wait for me near the fountain, so we can go home together."

"Don't worry dad, I'll be there."

His dad then went for a hug and told him tobtake care, he said the same thing back and entered the lift.

-

Following his dad's instructions he found himself in the heart of London. For him who never left the U.S in his past life being in London felt surreal.

"* Plan: Get some money using my future knowledge, Commence!*"

His first destination, the nearest trap house, he needed money quick and he knew there would be some for the taking. It took him longer than he expected but he found one, it was a run down apartment complex in the slums but there was a luxury car parked in the back.

"*Abscondam!*"

Using a hiding charm Ron waltz passed the obvious guards near the front door and entered the building. As he did he saw countless drugged out people littered all around the floor, he stepped over them and went upstairs where loud music could be heard. Contrary to the lower floors which was occupied by addicts, the higher floors were much cleaner and almost had no addicts.

"*Looks like one of the trap houses I used to frequent back in the day *"

Continuing to go up, he reached the top floor where the load music originated and load m.o.a.ns could now be heard.

He didn't think much of it and unlocked the door that was booming.

"*Alohomora*"

*Click

The door opened and he saw a man completely covered in tattoos, f.u.c.k.i.n.g a woman from behind while a visible white powder covered her nose and lips.

"*Flipendo!*"

With a wave of Ron's hand the man was sent crashing against a wall, luckily the woman was all coked out and didn't seem to notice.

"*Stupefy*"

Knocking out the woman, Ron looked around until he found two black duffel bags, one filled with money the other of uncut coke.

"*Jackpot!*"
