Harry wakes up to find Ginny is not in bed. He sits up looking around, before putting his glasses on. Just then the door opens, in walks Ginny with a tray of food. She smiles and sets it on his lap. He smiles as she kisses his head.
"Happy Birthday, Harry." She says
He smiles, "Honestly with work and everything else I forgot my own birthday." he laughs.
Ginny laughs as well, "Mum wants us over to the Burrow around noon."
"Sounds great." Harry says, eating as Ginny sits next to him.
--------
They get to the Burrow at ten til noon. Teddy is bouncing excitedly because he gets to see all his aunts and uncles. They enter the house and Mrs. Weasley is bustling about the kitchen making a big meal. Sadie walks in and smiles at them.
"Anything we can do to help?" Harry asks
Mrs. Weasley turns around, "No. It's your birthday Harry. I'm not going to make you do anything to help."
The party started soon. Everyone from the Weasley family came as well as most of Harry's Hogwarts friends. Luna and her boyfriend Rolf. Neville With Hannah Abbot. Even Seamus, Dean, Lee Jordan, and Oliver Wood came for Harry's birthday. They all hang out and even break out brooms and have a quidditch match. Harry had a great time and enjoyed the company of his family and friends. Eventually the party drew to a close and everyone left after telling Harry, 'Happy Birthday.' Harry thought his life was finally starting to settle down. He thought that to soon though. Teddy, Ginny and he had just stepped out of the burrow with George and Sadie when they heard distinct craking sounds around them. Harry sent Teddy inside as he drew his wand. Ginny, Sadie, and George do the same. The grass around the house rustles with movement. Tom comes out of the grass flanked by two young Death Eaters no younger then 18.
"Well, well, Mr. Potter." Tom smiles wickedly
"It was stupid of you to show up, Tom. At my families house with people who have fought a war and a few Aurors as well." Harry replies sending a silent spell at him.
Tom dodges, "Such a shame I have to rip this family of blood traitors apart." he tsks, "I wont have pity for killing this mudblood though. She's been makered by me and she knows she's polluting our blood."
"I'd watch what I say if I were you, Lestrange." Sadie speaks up with confidence, "You are a wanted criminal."
"Oh, I may be wanted but I'll be doing the wizarding world a great service. I will complete what my namesake strived for."
"Your namesake who was a half-blood himself." George states
"Oh, Mr. Weasley, I will kill you. You'll be with your twin soon I promise."
Harry sees George tense and Sadie gets a look of pain on her face as she looks up at George. With the flick of his wrist Tom shoots a jet of red out of his wand. Sadie blocks it and fires spells one right after the other back at him. Harry and Ginny join Sadie. Suddenly there is a flash of green from behind Sadie and George. A scream has just barely left Harry's lips to warn them when he gets hit with a body binding curse and Sadie crumples to the ground. Tom and the death eaters leave as quickly as they appeared. Then next thing Harry knows Ginny has taken the curse off of Harry and the rest of the Weasleys are running out of the house.
"What happened?" Hermione asks
"We were attacked by Tom. He gathered some death eaters as well." Ginny says helping Harry up.
Harry looks over to George who is on the ground Sadie's head in his lap and he is sobbing like he did when Fred died. A cold chill ran down Harry's spine. Sadie had been killed from behind. Death Eater who Tom so cleverly distracted all of them from with his taunts. That had been the plan. Distract and kill when they weren't expecting it. Though he didn't say it out loud Harry blamed himself. He realized to late and George lost his only connection to Fred. George was in pain because of Harry's slow reflexes. Ginny hugged Harry as she began to cry. Harry held her and looked away from George.
Everyone stayed at the burrow. George went to his old room and locked himself up there. He didn't know but the rest of the family set up a schedule. They split the hours of the night between them so they could keep an eye on George.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
George was so lost. He sat on his bed and stared at the small black velvet box in his hands. Fred had left him three years ago. So his boggart that was once Fred dead changed to Voldemort. When Sadie showed back up it changed to her dead. Now he was scared to know what it would become. When Fred died he could no longer produce a patronus because there wasn't a single happy moment Fred wasn't part of. With Sadie he was able to again. He felt so hopeless and lost. When they had reached their flat George was going to propose to Sadie. She had just put her papers through to leave the Aurors and she was going for an interview as DADA professor next week. George didn't sleep a wink that night. He was terrified of what would come to him in his sleep. Every now and then someone would knock on his door to check on him. He just suppressed sobs when they asked if he needed anything. Of coarse he needed something. Someone more like it. He needed his twin or the love of his life back. He needed them to come out of their hiding spots and tell him to stop being a baby.
An idea comes to his mind. Though he knows not of the current owner he knows it exists. Dumbldore had/has one, Harry has the other. At one poit he owned all three. George removes his butt from his bed and heads down stairs. He sees Harry and Ginny in the den. He walks in.
"George? What's going on?" Ginny sits up with concern.
"I need to know where you put it, Harry." George says ignoring his sister.
"Where I put what George?"
"I need to know where you hid the Resurrection stone Harry. And do not bull shit me, mate. I know it was in your possession for a time. I need to know where you put it."
"No, George. I'm not going to let you torture yourself with that stone. You know the story. The second brother killed himself because of the stone. Besides I'm not sure where it's at exactly. I dropped it when I was done with it. It could be anywhere now." Harry says.
"Just tell me where you dropped it. I wont torture myself I just need to see them. I want to make sure neither one of them suffered. I need to know the were not in pain."
"George being killed with the killing curse is..."Harry trails off thinking of the right words then decides to quote what he heard, "It's quicker then falling asleep. It happens so quick there is no room for pain."
"You don't understand though, Harry. They were my closest friends." George says close to tears
"I do understand, however as your brother-in-law, I cannot allow you to torture yourself with that stone."
George nods and trudges back up the stairs. He sits on his bed and stares at the wall.
I'm back. It's back. I have finally finished chapter 11. That was the most depressing chapter I have ever wrote in anything. Sorry if I made you cry. Should Harry tell George where he dropped the Resurrection Stone? Comment let me know. Vote. Heck spread the word about my story. I am loving the 608 reads!! Also I will be on more often since it's summer time. Have a nice day!!
