Eighty-Six

In the end

Harry

The days blended together and none of us knew what the day was. We had destroyed a horcrux. He had finally done what we came here to do. The only problem was we had a long journey ahead of us to finish the mission.

No one spoke of the twins during our time together. Ron was his usual self making snarky remarks about everyone, but made sure to leave a certain four names out of his mouth. Only for Hermione's sake though.

It was Ron's remarks that got us caught. He was shaming Hermione for still loving and having hope for Draco even after he became a deatheater. Hermione only responded with "Love doesn't disappear for the bad and appear for the good. It stays all the time."

After her response Ron went on to speak of the twins for the first time since we started this mission. Since the first time the news broke of them joining the other side. Since I knew deep down, they really could kill me now.

Ron kept on talking, but I stopped him when I heard the sound of someone apparating. I didn't want to turn around, but I did anyway and saw Jaden leaning against a tree with some deatheaters with him. I was prepared to run, but Jaden didn't look like he wanted to do this.

He took one look at me and sighed, "I don't want to chase you or bring you in, but the big guy still wants you and until the twins come out of their room, he's in charge. I'm going to give you a head start and you better run fast, Harry. It won't be good if the others catch you. Now, run."

We didn't waste one second, before taking off in the opposite direction. Only a few moments passed, before spells were sent our way. I knew on the inside Jaden was dreading having to hurt us. Knews had broke through letters that he had his breaking point. He wanted to get rid of his "gift" as Bellatrix called it. He wanted it all to stop.

Hermione took one look at me, before yelling, "I'm sorry, Harry." She hit me with a spell and I blacked out. Last thing I remember was Jaden saying something about the twins are not going to like this.

Rotanev and I stayed locked in at Black Palace. We only went outside during the morning to look over all the cliffs. It was tempting to jump and end it all right there, but we didn't.

We packed day after day, keeping things that we wanted to pass down to Remus and Regulus' son, Teddy Sirius Lupin-Black. They owled us telling he was due next month and they finally picked a name. In honor of Ted and Sirius.

I thought it would be good to start packing up more things than just Rotanev's book collection. We haven't even went near Mum and Dad's room since they died. Who knew the stuff that was left in there after that horrible night in June.

Draco helped in the process, while Jaden stayed busy with missions. Draco was the one who held our hand as we went inside our parents room for the first time in almost a year. The bed wasn't even made.

Rotanev found the necklace that turned into a dog collar with the marauders symbol on it, then she cried. I found Mum's hand written vows to Dad, and then I cried. Draco found pictures of them all at Regulus graduation, and then he cried as well.

The crying stopped when Jaden barged into the room, "We have a major problem and I promise I tried to stop it. Please don't curse me, but we need you at Malfoy Manor. All of you."

I pushed off the ground and walked over to Jaden, "Why would they need us there? What did you do, Jaden? What could you possibly have done so wrong that they need us?"

Jaden looked at his feet, then looked me in the eyes, "I was in charge of finding Harry with the snatchers. I didn't actually think we would do it, but we did. While, I found him and the other two, Pansy and Theo returned home early for break. Bellatrix found Blaise and the sisters and brought them to the manor. She's going to kill them or make them join us."
