Remus ran straight to the dungeons to find Severus. He was teaching so he had to go to his classroom.

He swung the door open like Draco had done to his own classroom not 30 minutes earlier. Severus looked up to see a distraught Remus. He was in the middle of teaching a class off eight years.

"It's Harry," Remus said and he looked at him.

"Is he back?" he questioned and Remus just shook his head, "not exactly. We need to go, now" Remus said trying to get him to move.

"Where is he?" He questioned and Remus looked at his class full of Harry's friends.

"Malfoy Manor" Remus said quietly, but loud enough for Snape to hear, the full class went into fits of whispers.

"What? What the hell is the idiot doing there?" Snape said starting to walk out of his classroom.

"We need to go, now. We need to go to the ministry. I'll explain when I'm there" Remus said grabbing Severus' arm, shocking him.

"Class dismissed," Snape said before apparating both off them into Kingsley Shacklebolt's office.

"Remus! Severus! What may I owe the pleasure?" Kinsley said surprised.

"Look, we need a favour" Remus started.

"Anything, what is it?" Kingsley said standing up shaking the two men's hands.

"For you to listen to me for 5 minutes," Remus said leading him over to a desk where he spread out the letters from Harry.

"Of course," Kingsley said following the two men over.

"We finally heard from Harry," Remus said, "that's brilliant," Kingsley said.

"Not exactly. I think he's being held at Malfoy Manor by Amycus Carrow" Remus said and shock came over Kingsley and Snape's face.

"That's not possible, Carrow, was killed," Kingsley said.

"No, Alecto was killed. Amycus was never found. We just assumed he had died, his body was never found" Snape said.

"Look, we heard from him. But the letters don't make sense, look, here in Draco's he calls Draco by his full name, which he never does because he knows Draco-"

"Draco hates it because it links him to his father" Snape finished and Remus nodded his head.

"Yeah, then he talks about going to Malfoy Manor for easter. But they are coming to Grimmauld Place for the wedding?" Remus said confusion started to spread over Kingsley's face.

"What?" He said in confusion.

"He then mentions quidditch, saying that he hopes Draco isn't playing because it's not the same without Harry there. Yet none of the eight years are allowed to play quidditch this year. Then he speaks about Granger being pregnant" Remus says but is soon cut off by Snape.

"GRANGERS PREGNANT?" Severus shouts causing Kingsley and Remus to jump a little.

"No, she's not. That's the strange bit. Then he mentions baby names. Aimee and Carol. But muggle names but that makes us like Aimee, Amycus, Carol, Carrow" Remus explained and Kingsley nodded.

He walked over to the door and shouted "Proudfoot, Roberts, Chang, Wilson, Edwards, Nelson, Justice, Weir and Palmer! Let's go!" He shouted and soon eight people turned up at his door.

"C'mon. We have reason to believe that Harry Potter is being held hostage at Malfoy Manor. So here's the plan" Kingsley said filling them in.
