Remus Lupin's Goddaughter

{ Chapter 30 }

Lol...remember last week when I said that this book would be finished by the New Year?

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

Yeah that didn't go to plan...

Oh well!

Cora's POV

I was currently at the Burrow, sitting in front of the fire. Tonight was the night Harry and the Order were staying at the Burrow due to Voldemort's army rising. I was nervous at the thought of them all getting here since it was a very dangerous job considering Voldemort's army could be spying on us. All I could do was sit and wait, along with Molly and Ginny who was in the kitchen, preparing food.

We then hear the sound of a motorbike from outside and all rushed out to see Hagrid and Harry.

"Harry!" I shout and ran over to him.

He climbs out of the motorbike and engulfs me into a big hug. I snuggle into his chest.

"Are you ok?" I asked him as I pull away.

He smiles and nods.

"Yeah...yeah, I'm good. You?"

I nod and he smiles and kisses my head.

"Thank goodness you both are alright." Molly says. "Where are the others?"

"Is no one else back?" Harry asked.

"They were on to us right at the start, Molly." Hagrid says. "We didn't stand a chance."

"As long as you're both alright." Molly says.

A bright light appeared from behind us and we turned to see Remus, holding up one of the twins.

"Here!" Remus shouts. "Into the house!"

I looked closer to see that it was Fred, with blood dripping at the side of his face. (before anyone comments, yes, I know it's George who gets injured but I needed it to be Fred for this one 😉😉)

Remus carried Fred into the house and we all followed him. Molly notices him and walks over.

"Oh, my boy!" She says.

Remus lays Fred on the couch whilst Molly attended to his wound. Suddenly, Remus grabs Harry by his shirt and pins him against the wall. I gasp in shock.

"What are you doing?!" Ginny exclaims.

"Sh!" Remus says, pointing his wand at Harry and eyeing him up. "What creature sat in the corner the first time Harry Potter visited my office in Hogwarts?"

"Are you mad?!" Harry exclaims.

"What creature?!"

"A grindylow!" Harry replies.

Remus calms down and removes his hand from Harry's shirt. Harry looks at me with confusion written on his face. I shrug my shoulders and looked at Remus.

"We've been betrayed." Remus says. "Voldemort knew you were being moved tonight. I had to make sure you wasn't an imposter."

"Oh..." I say, understanding the reason.

Harry merely nods and a thud came from outside. Remus took off instantly and Harry, Ginny and I followed.

"Wait!" Remus says, stopping us in our path.

I then saw Kingsley and Hermione. Remus and Kingsley point their wands towards each other.

"The last words, Albus Dumbledore spoke to the pair of us." Kingsley asked.
