Amy was still in shock after what happened just moments before.
"They're gone, they're gone, they're gone, they're gone! No, please say this is just a horrible nightmare and I am still asleep at Cassie's house." Amy pleaded to herself desperately.
"Amy, if you ever need anyone to talk to, you could talk to me. I have gone through hard times the past couple days too." Gish offered.
Amy got up and turned to face the group.
"You guys can sit yourselves down on the couch. I'm going to take a look at the house. This is probably the last time I'll be able to get to come here." Amy explained fighting to hold back tears.
"Of course Amy, take all the time you need." Cassie replied.
Amy walked upstairs where her bedroom was. She slowly walked inside looking at the torn curtains and feathers from the pillows strewn everywhere. Amy looked over at her dresser to find an untouched journal she recognized immediately as Felix's. She picked it up and put it in her handbag she had cast an extension charm on. Amy walked over to her bookshelf and picked up all her mother's favorite books and put them in the bag.
She then walked out of the room and closed the door to walk into her brother's room, in worse condition. Amy then looked at the ground near his bed to see a shattered picture frame. She ran over to it and grabbed the picture inside of her family long before she could remember with Voldemort standing beside Felix when he was very young. Amy tore Voldemort out of the picture and ripped his image to shreds putting the remaining picture into her bag. Carefully Amy walked into her parents' bedroom. As she walked in she saw scorch marks on the walls as if there were a fire or some sort of battle. Amy ran out of the room knowing what must've happened there.
"Guys you need to come see this." Amy exclaimed sounding shaken up.
"What is it?" Gish asked standing up.
Amy led them to her parents' bedroom to help get some ideas on what might have happened there.
"Amy is this what I think it is?" Cassie asked.
"Where my parents must've died? Yes, and it looks like You Know Who cleaned up any evidence of them being here recently." Amy replied.
Amy stared at all the scorches on the walls from misfired spells.
"Come on Amy we have to go back to Hogwarts. There probably isn't any Death Eaters at Hogwarts anymore." Gish suggested.
Amy nodded as she picked up a phoenix plush toy and read the tag. "To our loving daughter, in hopes she will forgive us for the secrets we've kept." Amy read to herself. She then put it in her bag and followed the group downstairs.
"Amy is there anything else you would like to grab before leaving?" Scorpius asked.
Amy looked around taking what could be her final glace around her childhood home and didn't see anything that stood out to her.
"No let's go." Amy replied
