"He'll be alright Harry" Ginny put her arm around my neck, inside I knew he would yet I still found it hard saying goodbye to another son.
"Goodbye Albus Severus Potter, see you at Christmas" I called to my youngest son who was setting off for his first year at Hogwarts. "Don't listen to James Sirius, Hogwarts is great don't start a duel with anybody until you learn how to and have a good term."
As the Hogwarts express left the station I waved and with that Ginny, Lilly Luna and I left the station ready to return to our cottage in Godric's Hollow. We went back through the barrier between platform 9 and 10 and out of the familiar surroundings that was Kings Cross station, we walked to an empty side street and disapparated.
"When can I go to Hogwarts" whined Lilly tears streaking her freckled face.
"When you're 11 Lilly" and with that we walked into our cottage.
We was barely home for an hour when a brown tawny owl rapped its beak against the window, Ginny walked over to the window and let it in to my surprise it was for me. I looked at the scribbled black letters saying Harry Potter. I opened the letter and it said:
Harry, I know it's your day off but we urgently need you, there has been a case aroused where a family of muggles have been murdered in a cottage just outside of Godric's Hollow. We believe it was done for a reason and that they have been targeted, we have been looking through the families records and it seems somewhere along the line there has been some magical blood but nothing that could give them an excuse to be targeted as far as I can see. I have taken the time to find you a small team to help you out which should be there already. Send me an owl about how you have got on. Dean Tomas.
"Ginny I have to go, work call, unavoidable. Lilly how about when I return we go to Diagon Alley and get you something? Love you" I kissed both their foreheads and left. The cottage wasn't far and so I took the scenic way by walking. I wandered down the main road with the trees on my right and luscious green fields on my left, within several minutes I spot the cottage and outside I see my team of aurors wands at the ready.
"Took your time Harry" George yelled at me laughing, evidently he had been telling jokes yet again.
"How's the shop doing?" I asked George curiously, since he works as an auror full time and still manages to run the popular wizarding shop; Weasley's Wizard Weezes.
"It's doing alright but it isn't the same without Fred. I know he has been dead for over 19 years but I still can't let it go." He replied sadly.
I wondered into the house my wand held in front of me, not knowing what was in store for me. In the main room there was dead bodies scattered around, two of which were adults a male and female and two kids a boy and a girl. All defenceless the sight sickened me, how could somebody kill kids who have a heart so pure. I had to leave my thoughts for a while because I had to get on with my task of finding out who has done it and why if I can.
