A mother's love for her child is like nothing else in the world. It knows no aw, no pity, it dares all things and crushed down remorselessly all that stands in it's path.

"Mumma?" Five-year-old Percy said as he violently shook his sleeping mum. "Mumma, wake up." He added, sounding as if he was about to cry when she didn't open her eyes.

"Percy?" Molly groaned, opening her eyes when she felt a herself being shaken, noticing her older kids standing in front of her, Bill holding one-year-old Ron. "What's the matter?" She added as she sat up and rubbed her eyes lightly.

"We're scared." Percy replied as his bottom lip started to quiver.

"Ok come on and get in the bed, all of you." Molly replied as she patted the empty space on the bed, scooting over to make room for everyone. Taking Ron into her cradling arms, Molly looked around at each one of her kids,

"Why are you scared, dearies?"

"There's a mean person hurting people." Nine-year-old Charlie said as he scooted closer to his mum, taking to the form of her body.

"Shh, I know there is, sweetheart but he'll be gone soon." Molly responded as she wrapped her arm around Charlie's waist and rubbed his back comfortingly. She tried her best to sound reassuring, not only for her kids but also for herself.

"I want him to be gone now." Bill finally said as he moved under the covers so he was lying down next to Arthur.

"I know, baby. I promise he will go away soon." Molly replied as she took Bill's small hand into hers.

"Pwomise?" George asked, not really knowing what everyone was talking about.

"I promise." Molly said as she pulled George onto her lap. Seeing his twin brother on his mum's lap, Fred moved so he was on lying next to her, opposite of Charlie.

"Ok, mummy." Molly heard a couple kids chorus sleepily. Why do I feel so damn guilty for lying to my kids? Don't I want them to believe that everything will be over soon? Don't I want my kids to be carefree in everything they do? Molly thought as she rocked both George and Ron back to sleep. Within minutes, Molly had six sleeping kids next to her and another sleeping infant in the room next door. Moving ever so slightly, Molly also fell asleep trying to convince herself that everything will be ok in the morning.

A Few Weeks Later

"Molly! I have some incredible news!" Arthur said as he excitedly ran through the front door.

"What is it, love?" Molly asked as she looked up at Arthur with baby food in her hand, smiling ever so slightly at the excitement in her husbands face.

"It's over, the war is over!" He replied as he pulled her in for a loving hug, tears springing to his eyes when he felt Molly quietly sob from joy. "Can you believe it, Mollywobbles?" He added as he pulled back and gave her a passionate kiss.

"We have to tell the kids!" She said as she fiercely nodded her head in agreement.

"Tell us what, Mummy?" Bill asked as he walked into the room, hearing the commotion that was going on.

"The bad guy, he's gone." Molly replied as she set down the baby food down, walked over to Bill and pulled him into a big Molly Weasley hug.

"He's gone, for good?" Bill asked as his face lit up with excitement.

"At least for now." Molly replied as she smiled down at her first born, "See, what did I tell you? I told you he would go away." She added, tears forming once again in her eyes. "Now, come one lets go get tell your brothers." Grabbing both Molly's and Arthur's hand, Bill lead them to his brothers and told them the great news, getting stampeded into a family hug in response. After a few minutes of just hugging everyone, Molly pulled away and started to cook the biggest meal the Weasley clan had had in a while.

This is for the challenge 'Weasley Family Values.'
