Fallen in Love with a Snatcher (Harry Potter Fanfic)

29

"CAN YOU BE ANYMORE SLOWER?" Fenrir screamed over his shoulder as him and Remus were running through the woods, trying to avoid being hit by the snatchers that were following closely behind. Fenrir was about a few yards ahead of Remus, who was struggling to keep up with Fenrir. They were jumping over overturned logs, uproots, and slumps in the earth while ducking as the snatchers were flinging spells at them and low hanging branches threatened to hit them in the face. Fenrir threw a few explosive spells behind him to try and slow them down. 

Fenrir had just threw another explosion spell at the snatchers behind him when he turned back around just in time. He shoved his feet into the ground as he came skidding to a complete halt. His heart pounded within his ears as he stared down into the endless abyss of mist while he stood on the edge of the cliff's edge. He began to slowly backed up away from the edge. His ears perked up when a sound of footsteps came echoing behind him. He turned his attention to the side to find Remus was closing behind him. 

"REMUS! WATCH IT!" Fenrir shouted as he shot his hand out and grabbed the collar of Remus's shirt and pulled him back against his chest. Fenrir held Remus in his arms as he moved them away from the cliff so they didn't fall overboard. 

"Shit! What do we do?" Remus mumbled under his breath as Fenrir set him down on the ground. 

"Take my hand and we're apparating out of here." Fenrir suggested to him. 

"I rather be snatch than--" Remus started when Fenrir wrapped his arms around Remus's waist before jumping off the cliff. Remus began screaming at the top of his lungs, his arms flinging around till he felt his body spiraling around. Suddenly they weren't flying off the cliff, they were landing onto the table in the living room of their hideout. 

"Ow! I think I just broke a limb." Remus mumbled as he pushed himself off Fenrir. 

"Oh please, *grunts* I took most of the damage." Fenrir growled. 

"Why didn't you land us on something more softer?" Remus grumbled. 

"Shut up!" Fenrir shot at him as he climbed onto his elbows. His head shot to the side when he heard people rushing into the living room. Tonks came rushing passed Molly and Arthur as she made her way to Remus's side and helped him up to his feet. 

"What's going on? What happened?" Arthur asked. 

"We were ambushed. I fear someone had found out about our betrayal to the Dark Lord and word has spread to them." Fenrir mumbled before climbing to his feet, "Or perhaps it was just some freak accident... but I highly doubt it." 

"Who would have informed them of your betrayal?" Kingsley asked. them 

"Don't look at me. Scabior and I or our men have been locked away with you all... but somehow, someone's getting news to the Dark Lord." Fenrir explained to them. Molly gasped. 

"Oh-no! And the children are out there right now! We should go out there with them and bring them back here! If they've haven't been snatched up by You-Know-Who's followers already." Molly suggested to them. 

"I'm sure they are fine..." Arthur suggested to her, "but if they do not return by nightfall, we'll go searching for them." 

"We should be out there trying to bring them in right now." Molly said to them. 

"Molly let's give them till nightfall. If they so much as delay even a minute, we'll hunt them down to make sure they are safe." Kingsley stated to them, "But right now, we must discover how they knew about Fenrir and Remus's location."
