Chapter 22

Ginny-

As soon as Neville had said these words, Ginny acted upon her motherly instincts. She quickly grabbed Harry and James hand's and apparated them just outside the grounds of Hogwarts because she knew that it wasn't possible to apparate inside the grounds. James had apparently grabbed Amber's hand too and now the four of them stood outside the gates that lead up to Hogwarts.

"Flipping heck Ginny, that was quick, we didn't even lock the house up or anything!" Harry gasped. He had never gotten used to apparating, especially at short notice.

"Like I care about locking the house up. Our daughter is in danger Harry. There are enchantments around the house anyway, it'll be fine and either Hermione or Taylor might have thought to lock up anyway." Ginny shrugged.

"Definitely not Aunt Taylor." James muttered.

The four of them quickly began to run up the path that lead to Hogwarts. It seemed quite calm to say that there were Death Eaters inside the castle. Nobody was around and everything was quiet.

"Ginny get down!" Harry cried, quickly tugging her around the side of Hagrid's hut to see two Death Eaters walk down the path.

"That was close. Be more careful Mum." James warned her.

"Sorry I'm just determined that's all. They've had you once and now they've got Lily. I'm not standing for it anymore!" Ginny whispered harshly.

"We all are, but you still have to be careful Gin." Harry told her.

"I know! Now are we going to stand here all day or go and find Lily?" Ginny rolled her eye's, checking for Death Eaters before she moved from their hiding place and carried on walking towards the castle.

Ginny could distinctly hear James and Amber a little way behind her and Harry was running to keep up with her. They had soon reached the entrance hall where four Death Eaters now stood, blocking the entrance to the Great Hall that was a little way up the corridor. Ginny quickly crouched behind the wall, followed by Harry, James and Amber.

"Alright, we need a plan. If they're blocking the Great Hall, then obviously they're inside the Great Hall." Ginny told them.

"Well I brought the Invisibility Cloak if that helps?" James asked.

"I thought Al had the Cloak?" Ginny narrowed her eye's at her eldest son.

"He didn't but I asked him if I could borrow it for a mission that I had to do, but I haven't given it back to him yet." James explained.

"Okay, I suppose that you and Amber could go under the cloak and stun two of the Death Eaters. Also cast a silencing spell so that people inside the Great Hall won't suspect that anything is going off just yet. The other two Death Eaters will put up a fight and that's where we come in, we'll duel the other two then meet you outside the Great Hall." Harry told them the plan.

"Hey guys." A loud voice spoke.

"Taylor! Shut up and get behind the wall!" Ginny cried, pulling the girl down. She and Mattie had obviously seen them hid behind the entrance.

"What was that?" One of the Death Eaters inside the entrance hall asked.

"I didn't hear anything, you're imagining things Arvel." Another Death Eater spoke.

"Right! we can't stay here much longer because people are going to find us. You two go." Harry told James and Amber. James threw the cloak over himself and Amber and headed into the entrance hall, stunning the two Death Eaters nearest the door.
