A Father A New Life Start Book 5

29. Warding and Regrets

The Founders were sitting in Tom's office the twins were with Sirius and Remus away in Grimmauld Place he new that they would be safe there, Petunia and Corvus were also there seeking shelter as everyone knew that if Dumbles saw them then he would kill them and everyone knew that Grimmauld Place's Wards were stronger and just below Hogwarts herself, the Fidelius Charm placed on it and having changed Secret Keeper no one was able to get there

What's more Sirius and Regulus had made sure that anyone with Black Blood in them helped to strengthen them, for the first time in a long time the five cousins all came together, Tonks and Draco were also included in this as well as second cousins, Harry would of been but his Black Blood was a bit diluted due to his great grandmother being a Black they needed direct blood, the triplets helped as well Sirius, Regulus an Bellatrix holding one each

Each member of the Black family donated a drop of blood to enforced the wards making them reach into the ground and spreading around anchoring it into place once and for all they made sure that no one that had anything to do with Dumbles was allowed in

They knew they were going over the top with the protection but needs must and for the first time in such a long time Wulburga helped her son that she had cast out all those years ago it was only after Regulus sat and talked to his mother for days about what he had been through and how he had 'died' and how he was rescued as well as the damaged that she had done to her very own sons but to the rest of the family

She only married the Head of the family, yes they were cousins but that meant nothing Orion was from the Head branch of the family she wasn't, Sirius was going to be the Head of the family either way he didn't want it, it would then head down towards the next male Heir....

Yes Harry was Sirius' godson but he was the Founder's Heir.... if Sirius didn't have any children then it would of gone down to Draco but again he was the Malfoy Heir... it was good that he had a boy, the Black family now had a new Heir of the Black family.....

One Cygnus Orion Regulus Black-Lupin...

The Founder's had pulled everything that they could together and they had more than enough information, they now knew that there were 13 missing witches and wizards and they weren't completely shocked to say the least but some did surprise them and that was Severus for one, they knew something happened and he just walked out of Hogwarts with the two Weasley's even if one was now turned into a Muggle and the other into a Squib but still not the point

Another was Aberforth Dumbledore his very own brother was missing along with Gellert Grindlewuld, Alexys and Sarah so four people hadn't gone willing from what they knew

"Sturgis Podmore has been confirmed to be missing from the Ministry, same with Delores Umbridge, couldn't stand that women being here, they both walked out of the Ministry a few weeks ago and they have only just noticed it" said Tom as he sat down Dumbles had really fucked with the lot of them over the past how many years

"Fawkes and some House Elves have been watching and moving around whenever they tend to move" said Godric to them petting said bird who was on his shoulder "such a good bird"

"So we know where they are going to be?" said Rowena to them

"Yes just on the outskirts of the wards Noir had been watching with the herd and has said that more people keep coming to the wards to test them he doesn't like it but has stopped himself from attacking them many times as well as the others in the herd"

"Firenze has said that the Acromantula nests have moved from where they were, the unicorns have fled due to the number of bad omens around but has assured me that they will return in due course" said Salazar petting Orion and Solomon who were on his shoulders he loved these two snakes

"They are peaceful creatures afterall they don't want to be near bloodshed and I don't blame them to begin with, if only Dumbles hadn't of done what he has done right from the beginning I wouldn't of gone insane, spilt my soul and everything..." Tom sighed so much had gone so wrong over the past few years and he was blaming himself more so...

"Thomas it isn't your fault you were manipulated into being someone you weren't meant to be don't be so hard on yourself" said Helga to him as she placed her hand onto his shoulder

"I feel like it is though, he manipulated me into creating the Horcruxes through Horace Slughorn, he made me go against my very own family, sure they weren't the best I'll admit the Gaunt's didn't want anything to do with me when I found them and the Riddle's weren't much better due to being drugged and then me being conceived...." he screamed and threw everything onto the floor

"Feel better?" asked Godric

"Kinda, I just want this to end to be honest he's ruined to many lives I would also like my family back together Hadrian still hasn't woken up Otiz is worried and the Deities don't even know what's wrong and I don't know how to help him, the twins they... how do I tell two 1 year olds that their mother has been kidnapped by an insane man?"

"I say you don't tell them" said a sleepy voice everyone looked around and saw Harry standing there

"Hadrian are you ok now you've been asleep for quite a while" said Tom getting up to hug his oldest

"Yeah dad's worried he wants us to get to him but they have moved to just outside of the Wards, they have Granger, both Weasely's, Morning-Glory, her mum and the damn pink toad from 5th year and a few others" he pointed out of the window "they're there"

"WHAT?!" shouted the 5 others in the room

"Ouch careful some of us have sensitive ears here" said Otiz coming in he still looked 21

"Sorry, sorry" said Rowena as she looked out of the window as Noir flew passed

"He says that they are there waiting for us, or for them to attack"

"He wants me though" said Harry

"You will not be going out there"

Hogwarts hummed and the Wards flared to life and as the four Founders where there as well the Heirs her Wards grew stronger

"It tickles"

"She likes you" said Godric to Harry "she'll protect everyone here remember that"
