"Always," Sophie said with a grin.
With that, the married couple appeared at the Order's current residence and were greeted at the door by a loving, yet overly-extroverted, Weasley: Molly.
"Oh, my sweet Sophie, and Severus, welcome back. You look right fine," Molly said as she dragged them inside, "The children are all upstairs, so don't worry about them." She said while leading them to the kitchen. Opening the door felt like an entrance to a new world.
Lined up next to each other were Remus, Sirius, and Mr. Weasley. Sophie felt as though she walked into the beginning scene of Order of the Phoenix, yet she had been living here for longer than her mind can imagine.
Now, seeing the scars on Remus' face in a brighter light, Sophie realized they seemed more vivid than she last remembered. And Sirius, well, she was glad he was there at all. The Bitch Witch Bellatrix didn't have her way with Sirius, thank Merlin.
"Did you hear what happened today?" Sirius asked while throwing a newspaper down on the table. The large image on the front of the newspaper was all she needed to decipher what happened.
The Brockdale Bridge was destroyed that day. By the Death Eaters.
'That's why he kept me by his side,' Sophie said while thinking about her conversation with Voldemort and then picking up the newspaper.
"Wait, this only happened hours ago and they've already printed thousands of copies?" Sophie asked with a raised eyebrow.
"The Ministry is sneaky and eager for a story now with Fudge gone," Remus said while resting his chin on his fist.
"Sneaky? I'd say desperate," Sirius said while rolling his eyes and sighing. He watched Sophie as her eyes scanned the paper in front of her, and she flipped through the pages at an intense speed.
"Wait, what happened to Ollivander?" Sophie asked, trying to act surprised.
"He disappeared. No one has heard from him. His wand shop was completely ransacked," Remus spoke up again, "That was a few weeks ago though. And another bridge like this was destroyed then as well: the Millenium."
As she was about to say something, Sophie's arm began burning again and so did Severus'. That meant he was calling for a meeting. Sophie turned around to meet Severus' eyes. She nodded at him and he immediately turned around and headed out the door.
"Have you two always had a secret code or telepathic communication?" Sirius asked with a laugh.
"Hah," Sophie said as she sat the paper back down on the table, "Well. You know what this means now. His forces are growing stronger. That also explains what happened earlier today..."
"What do you mean?" Remus asked.
"Yes indeed, what happened?" Arthur cut in after being silent for a while. Sophie looked up at the four members of the Order in front of her. She didn't know how to word it properly.
