Halloween came. Logan didn't dress up this year, and neither did Remus. They were too preoccupied with the baby and the war. Their baby girl was due any day now, and though they still hadn't picked out a name, Logan wasn't worried.
"It will come to us." She had promised Remus.
Night had fallen, but no trick or treaters came up to their apartment building. The protective magic would have stopped anyone from finding it anyways. Logan was sitting on the couch next to Remus, reading a book when it happened. Someone knocked urgently at their door.
She looked at him with worry as he drew his wand and stood up. Remus walked over to the door and cautiously opened it.
Maya was on the other side of the door, and she was an absolute mess. Tears fell down her face and she was shaking.
"Harry and Ivy." She cried out, and that was all they needed to hear.
Remus ran to grab his coat.
"What are you doing?" Logan managed to ask.
"I'm going to the ministry." Remus said, "They'll have more information there."
"But they're all okay, right?" Logan asked.
Maya was still sobbing in the doorway.
"Maya." Logan called.
Maya shook her head through her tears.
"No." Logan denied, "They're okay, we just saw them a few weeks ago, they're fine!"
She stood up and tried to walk towards the door, Remus stopping her.
"Logan, please sit down." He said.
"No, I need- they can't be- I need to see." She cried.
"No, Logan, sit down." Remus said.
She shook her head. Remus looked at Maya for help, but she looked just as helpless as he felt.
"Logan." Remus said, through the tears falling down his face, "Listen to me. You have to stay here, okay?"
"I-"
"I can't lose you too!" He begged.
Logan couldn't reply. Remus turned to Maya.
"Make sure she stays here." He told her, walking out the door, "Don't let her leave."
He apperated away. Maya slowly approached Logan.
"What happened?" Logan asked, staring at the ceiling.
Maya didn't respond.
"Maya, what happened?" Logan repeated, looking up into her friend's eyes.
"I was with Dumbledore, I was supposed to be going on a mission." Maya said, "And then... the spell broke. He told me."
"But it could only break if..." Logan trailed off.
