A/N: So, the last chapter! Hope you like it!
Fred Weasley was scared. Actually, that was an understatement. Fred was so scared that he could not think straight. Fred was very open, always ready for the worst. But this had taken him off guard.
He looked around to see an open garden. It was somewhere Fred had never seen before. Where was everybody? And more importantly, where was George?
He then saw a figure coming towards him. At first he couldn't make out who it was. Then, as he came nearer, Fred was shocked.
"Remus?" The man nodded and Fred shook his head. Remus looked…different. He didn't have as many scars as he had when Fred had last seen him. His hair wasn't grey and he looked healthier.
"What's going on? Where am I? Where's George?" Fred asked.
Remus sat down beside Fred and said, "Fred, this is going to be hard. Really hard." Taking a deep breath, Remus looked deep into Fred's eyes and said, "We didn't make it through the battle."
Suddenly everything stopped. Fred couldn't hear the wind anymore, he couldn't feel the grass under his feet. Words failed him and suddenly, Fred felt empty.
"And, George survived?"
Remus nodded once again.
His worst fear had come true. Fred had been separated from his twin.
"No, then I need to go back." Fred declared. "I can't leave George alone! He isn't as outright as I am, he won't be able to survive! I can't…"
Fred was cut short as Remus' hand rested on his shoulder. Fred buried his head in his hands.
"You have not really been separated from your brother." Remus said. Fred looked up to see Reums holding an ear.
Very carefully, Fred took it. Taking it near his face, he whispered, "George?"
There as utter and complete silence till Fred heard his brother's voice, "Fred?"
Tears began brimming in Fred's eyes. "Yeah!"
"YOU IDIOT! HOW COULD YOU LEAVE ME ALONE! YOU COME IN MY BRAIN AFTER A YEAR.."
"Whoa, what do you mean after one year?" Fred looked at Remus for confirmation. Remus said, "George was unable to let you go. So you were in limbo for almost a year."
Fred turned to the ear and said, "I am sorry Georgie. I didn't mean to…"
Fred heard his twin cry. They kept crying and Remus stood up and took a few steps back.
Finally, after what felt an eternity, George's voice asked, "you're not leaving any time soon, are you?"
Fred looked at Remus for confirmation, who nodded. "Never again George."
"Good. Now go! I have to go for lunch."
It was weird, that George would be going somewhere alone. But Fred thought that there was nothing they could do now.
"Fred." Fred heard a new voice. He turned around to see Sirius Black-a young, unscarred Sirius Black. And beside him stood, James Potter.
"We are in a need of the fourth Marauder." Said James, smiling.
"You are just in time." Remus added, winking.
Fred looked at his mentors. He looked back at the ear and closed his eyes. Finally, wrapping his fingers around the reason for holey George, Fred looked up, smiled and said, "I would be honored."
