This was it. Harry reached his hand out towards Lucius, the prophecy resting in his palm. The greed and success in the blond's eyes would likely haunt Harry's nightmares, at least the one's not involving Voldemort. But nothing would hurt him as much as the question that came as he let his fingers flex back and the orb slip, hurtling towards the ground.

The misty figure rose from the shattered glass, but before it could be heard there was the sound of apparation echoing about the chamber.

The Order was here, Snape understood the message and everything would be fine. Sirius appeared right next to him and he couldn't help but grin as the man raised his fist and, in a very muggle-like fashion, decked the blond.

"Keep away from my godson."

Then the entire world went into chaos. Spells being shouted, sparks of light coming from every direction. The DA flew into motion, energy surging again at the fact they were backed by those who stood in Voldemort's way. Neville and Hermione were safe now and Harry just had to help.

Remus suddenly stood in front of him, "Quickly! Let's get you out of here!"

Raven hair shook, "No, I have to help."

"You've done enough, Harry. Let us handle it now, okay?"

Before he could do more to protest Remus was distracted by a misdirected curse and Harry used the opportunity to make his way over to his godfather's side. The man gave him a look that said he was not happy with the choice but made no effort to convince him to leave and that was more permission than Harry needed any other day of his life.

Side by side they battled, until they stood shoulder to shoulder in front of Bellatrix. Her cackle sent shivers down Harry's spine but he stood his ground and levelled his wand. The crazy witch narrowed her eyes and took a half step forward as she threw the first spell.

"Incendio!"

Sirius blocked the spell and the younger Gryffindor cast his own counter.

"Diffindo!"

"Are you crazy! Rus, he's going to kill you if we don't get out of here. A spell we know isn't going to do much. We have to run!"

"Sephy can't run any faster, Lils! We have got to keep it together and we have to make sure that Sephy can get away with us."

"Sephy is going to leave you two behind if you don't move it!" The smaller girl rushed passed them ignoring their calls as gripped the charm hanging around her neck.

"Oculi mutuo."

"Seph!"

"Don't start, we have to get away from here! And it's the only thing that will help, okay?!"

Finally the trees began to thin. They were close now, they could see the towering walls of their home and then they would be safe. Theoretically anyway. Chancing it, Lily looked to her brother and as one the three siblings turned with borrowed wands in hand and cast a volley of spells at the ground, the trees, and anything else they could hit. Casting their emotions into the sparks that flew through the air. Trying to hide from all of the 'if's' that could have prevented this moment from coming.

If only Dumbledore wasn't alive. If only Voldemort wasn't dead. If only their Dad knew who they were.

They just needed a little bit more time! But time wasn't coming and if's weren't becoming when's so for now they had to make do. A loud shout echoed through the trees and had the three siblings cringing away.

Bellatrix's wand arm began bleeding as the deep cut sliced into her upper arm. Unfortunately she maintained a solid grip on the wood in her grasp.

"Nice shot, James!"

The dark haired boy looked over at his godfather, not even caring about the slip when he suddenly found himself shoved out of the way. He slid across the dark marble skidding to a stop and looking back Bellatrix, really, a pushing curse? Sirius looked in his direction, clearly relieved to meet his eyes. But that meant he was looking the wrong way.

Harry watched in horror as Bellatrix levelled her wand on Sirius. His last family. The one person who seemed to want him. There were spells all around him the Order against the Death Eaters with the DA tried to stay out of the way.

But in those vibrant green eyes the world seemed to slow and come to silence. He just wanted something to happen. Some miracle that would save his godfather and allow him the family he never knew.

They weren't moving fast enough. They were almost to the apparition barrier, but almost was not going to be close enough. Especially if their sanctuary would be refused. Which was pretty likely if the red witch had anything to say about it.

"This is not going so well."

The drain on Sephy that the spell caused had the dark haired girl falling fast. Honestly Rus was just amazed she had made it this long with everything. They needed to be some place safe. Some place where they would be okay. Somewhere someone could be the adult for once and take care of children. In a world where both of their parents were alive. And their godparents.

Rus wasn't asking much if you thought about it?

What's a little miracle between friends, right?

Sephy finally came to a stop, not able to move any faster and the other two had no way of carrying her, sharing her fatigue.

She puffed out a breath that visibly mocked them as it simply vanished on the spot, "We need a miracle guys, or you two could go ahead, I could slow them down."

"Not a chance, Sephy. We can get out of this together. Dad mentioned someplace once, we could go if we needed to…"

"The Burrow. But they'll take Ginny's word over ours, you know that."

"Well it looks like Aunt Molly is our only choice."

Lily shrugged, "Well I mean there's always time travel. We could just hop back and stop all of this."

The other two gave light laughs that were cut off by the sound of a cutting branch. Rus held out a hand to each of his sisters, "Alright, looks like the Burrow it is."

"And how exactly are we going to get there?"

"Destiniation, Determination, and Deliberation."

Lily glared at him but took both his hand and Sephy's, "We can't apparate."

"If the Pigeons can we can. Come on, it's either that or we're done. Just try okay? We'll do it all together and hope for the best."

Sephy grinned, "I'm thinking time travel would work better but why not?"

"Three."

"Two."

They closed their eyes and tried to focus on the picture and map their father had shown them all those years ago. But when Rus began the countdown, they couldn't help but think that maybe just maybe they could stop it all from going bad.

"One."

They turned as one and were forced into a tube of pressure. Only hoping that when they came out on the other side they might actually get some good news.

Just as the green light started to flicker at the tip of Bellatrix's wand a loud crack filled the air. Wind began whipping around the room, loud crashes echoing through the chamber each followed by a blinding flash of colored light.

One. A flash of green.

Two. A flash of red.

Three. A flash of blue.

The wind swirled once more and Harry caught sight of the crazed woman being pulled from her feet and slammed against the wall where she hovered pinned of a long moment before the wind disappeared as suddenly as it came and the dark haired witch was dropped to the floor.

"What in Merlin's Beard just happened?"

Death Eater's and Phoenix Members alike just stood in the room not sure how to process what just happened. It seemed as though most of them were more worried about the answer to Sirius' question than continuing with the battle. But it was Lucius who first noticed the change in the room.

"Am I the only one who sees the three children?"

Three sets of eyes blinked at the sound of a familiar voice as they all turned in the general direction of the older man.

The lone boy was the first to speak, his voice quiet even in the cavernous room, "Uncle Draco?"

"Draco?!"

The youngest girl shook her head and gripped the other's hands tightly, "I think that's Lucius."

"Of course, I'm Lucius! And what do you mean Uncle Draco? What kind of a joke is this!?"

The red headed girl stood up straight despite her tight grasp of her siblings hands, "I'm sorry, we were trying to get to a friend's house, but we must have done it wrong."

"Did you just apparate in here? I didn't know that was possible…"

That came from Remus.

"Of course they did not apparate. They are barely children and it is not possible to apparate anywhere in the ministry, but especially in this department. There are extra wards set up specifically to prevent it."

Harry himself just blinked, he had absolutely no idea what was going on, "What's apparition?"

Suddenly all eyes of the room locked on him and the three kids looked torn between laughing, crying, and throwing themselves at him.

"I think I figured it out, Lils. Because I'm ninety percent sure that boy is Harry James Potter."

The boy's voice drew most of the attention back to him and his companions, "Apparently desperation is a key emotion in doing the impossible. We've succeeded when no success was possible."

"At least it's better than having to escape from Dumbledore again. He nearly killed Sephy the last time he got his hands on her. And what he did to Dad was even worse."

Those words made no sense to the room, noises simply echoing off the wall. More so when the Order heard these kids talking nonsense about their leader. Dumbledore would never hurt a child. But in the end the words from the lips of the smallest child explained it as succinctly as possible.

"Well, Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore."

This is a prompt from one of my favorite readers DaughterofHV. So let me know what you think and I cannot wait to see where this story goes. Also, let me know if you have any questions about what happened, a lot will be explained in the next chapter. Hope this was not too difficult to read!
