The Lost Twin (Fred Weasley)

Chapter 56: Sneaking and Entering

Cassiopeia's POV
This is completely irrational, one part of my brain argued. Voldemort has Sirius and Remus, the other part argued. That part won. We had just made it out of the forbidden forest.  Umbridge has been attacked by centaurs. Ron, Ginny, Neville and Luna, had miraculously defeated the entire inquisitorial squad. They had a few bumps and scratches, but seemed okay overall.

The plan was to get to the ministry of magic.

Before I knew it Harry was trying to talk everyone out of coming with him. Ginny was obviously furious with him, and I couldn't say I blamed her. Although, two of her brothers might kill me if something happened to her.

To make matters worse, he tried to talk to me out of it.

"You're not coming either Cassie. It's to dangerous, I don't want you getting hurt."

Merlin, I thought overprotective brothers were the Weasley's thing, I thought, rolling my eyes.

"Harry James Potter, you are a down right fool if you think I'm staying here. I don't care if it's dangerous. I'm not standing and waiting while Remus and Sirius could be in danger, and while you are putting your damn self in danger! I am capable of everything you are. I am not staying here." I demanded.

Harry glared at me disapprovingly for a minute, before giving up on trying to convince any one of us that we weren't in this together. If he was going to break into the ministry, so were the rest of us.

Finally, it was settled that all of us would be going- by thestral. Several of them had come, as Harry, Hermione and I were covered in Grawps blood. All seven of us soon boarded a thestral, those who couldn't see them with a little help of course.

Soon enough we were flying towards the ministry of magic. I was flying next to Ginny when a thought occurred to me. Fred and George will never forgive me if anything happens to her. I shook my head. Like you'd forgive yourself either.

It didn't take long for the position on the thestral to become uncomfortable. Nobody shifted their position for fear of falling out of the sky. I couldn't blame them, looking down made me slightly sick. This made breaking into the ministry sound pleasant. Looking straight ahead again, I focused on how we planned to find where Sirius and Remus were in the ministry, without being caught.

With that as a distraction, we seemed to arrive there sooner. We walked into a telephone box, that was in need of some repair. We all packed inside, some of us mostly outside.

"Whoever's nearest the receiver, dial six two four four two!" Harry said.

Ron somehow managed, bending his arm at weird angles.

"Welcome to the ministry of magic. Please state your name and business," a cool female voice said.

"Harry Potter, Cassiopeia Potter, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Ginny Weasley, Neville Longbottom, and Luna Lovegood," Harry stated so quickly it would be amazing if they understood a thing he said. "We're here to save someone, unless your ministry can do it first!"

A badge was presented to all of us. Ron handed me mine.

CASSIOPEIA POTTER
RESCUE MISSION

The floor of the telephone box began to sink. My heart was pounding, what if we didn't reach them in time?

"I think this would be considered breaking and entering in the muggle world," Hermione muttered next to me.

"Mmm I think it's more like sneaking and entering," I told her, with a half-hearted smile. She just stared at me. "Well I mean, we aren't technically breaking anything... except maybe a few laws..."
