"I don't have to explain to you why this is wrong." Sirius said.

"I understand." Remus said, taking his friend's hand, "Do you?"

"This isn't our only option, Moony." Sirius said, "And what if they attack you like they did in the beginning?"

"That is already taken care of." Snape said, breaking in, "Why do you suppose the Muggles hit the Weasley boy in the head?"

"They killed him for fighting." Arabella said, "We've already-"

"I fought." Snape cut her off, "How about you, Remus, Sirius? Did you two fight?"

"As best we could without wands on hand." Sirius said, "What difference is there?"

"When we fought, they hit us with those darts; we went down immediately and proved no further threat. Why do you suppose they killed Weasley then?"

"If the darts weren't strong enough to take Bill Weasley down because he was... in a state of rage..." Arabella said.

"That would explain why they had to kill him." McGonagall finished, "And it would also stand to reason that the darts will not affect Remus."

"Then we can't send him!" Tonks said, standing, "They'll kill him!"

"Idiot child they haven't the foggiest idea how to kill a werewolf, and even if they did they would put it off as myth!" Snape said, "Do you have any better ideas?!"

Tonks looked down and shook her head, walking away with Arabella Figg, "Then it is settled." McGonagall said quietly, "Only if you want to do so, Remus."

Sirius flinched when Lupin stepped forward and said, "I've already said that I wish to do it; I've thought out all of the consequences and it hasn't changed my mind."

"We'll bloody you up then, and the Muggles will take you inside to heal you; when the moon rises tonight: you'll save us all." Snape said.

Remus dropped Sirius' hand as he walked away with Snape, not wanting his dear friend to see him hurt.

"If I told them I was pregnant they would have to bring me inside." Hermione said.

"You're only 15 Hermione!" Ginny argued.

"What do they know about Witches?" Hermione replied.

"This could work." Angelina said, "We've got something here."

"What good would it do you to get inside? You're just a girl without your wand." Ginny said, "We're not strong enough."

"I would expect you of all people to know how wrong that is." Hermione said, "We're Witches; we are ten times smarter than Wizards! I'll get in there and find a key or something... then I'll hide it."
"What in your hair?" Ginny shot.

"Don't laugh until I've failed." Hermione said as she stood up.
"How do you propose to get them out here so they can laugh at you?" Ginny asked.

"Draw a crowd." Angelina said, standing up, "Or stir the one we've already got up."

"How are you going to do that?" Ginny said.

"Well I would run around naked but the twins are just over there and that is the last thing I want to be known for at Hogwarts." Angelina said.

Hermione looked slightly flushed, falling backwards to the ground suddenly, "Hermione!" Ginny cried, kneeling beside her and shaking her.

"She's dead!" Angelina yelled, "DEAD!"

As the two girls panicked a Muggle armed with his tranquilizer gun stepped into the enclosure, "Please you have to help, she's-"

"Pregnant!" Hermoine cried, sitting up, "You can't... you can't hit me with that dart because I'm pregnant. I can't have the baby alone out here... I need... attention! Um... Witches need their... mate or... or at least someone to-"

"What's the father's name?" the Muggle asked dully.

"Excuse me?"

"The father's name." the Muggle repeated.

"Oh... Viktor Krum." Hermione spat out, shaking her head, "He's from my world; I'm afraid there's no way to locate him and so-"

"Come with me." The Muggle said, pulling Hermione to her feet; she waved giddily back to the other two girls as she was lead out of the display.

"Why didn't you tell me what she was planning?" Ginny cried, slapping Angelina's arm as the older girl laughed.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"If you look like you are bleeding very much then they will come out and I can-" Viktor stopped as the display opened and a Muggle stepped in.

"UNHAND ME AT ONCE I AM WITH CHILD!" Hermione screeched, grunting as the Muggle shoved her forward and left the display.

Hermione stood and dusted herself off hastily, "Why Hermione! Why didn't you tell us?" Fred asked with a broad grin.

"Oh shut up Fred... Fred?!" Hermione looked up and frowned, then froze when she saw Viktor, "Viktor... oh my... hello!" she said, battling with her unruly hair.

"Hermione." Viktor said standing and walking to her, enveloping her in a protective hug, "Have they hurt you?"

"Well a little but I'm alright really." Hermione said, battling to pull her face away from the Bulgarian's broad chest, "Really Viktor."

"How'd you manage getting in here?" George asked, sitting up on his elbows.

"What were you three doing?!"

"We were gonna poke George until he started bleeding again then beat up the guards when they came to fix him up." Fred said, "It was Viktor's idea. He wanted to find you, you see."

"Well I'm here now, and that is... indescribably unsanitary." Hermione said, sitting on the grass when Viktor released her.
"How did you manage getting in here?" George asked, "Don't they keep us separated so we don't... well you know."

"They think I'm pregnant." Hermione said.
"And they put you in here because...?"

"They think it's Viktor's." Hermione blurted, turning red.

Viktor cleared his throat, looking at his feet, "Well it isn't."

"Yes thank you." Hermione said, "I just... gave them a name of someone I thought wasn't here. I didn't know they were going to go tossing me in here with you so we could be together when I had a baby!"

"Well you're not going to have one." Fred said, "Won't they figure that out?"

"Probably sooner rather than later, but I was going to get into the hospital building and find a key or wand and get us all out." Hermione said.
"So we aren't the only ones with half-cocked bloody terrible plans." George said, rubbing absentmindedly at the tender flesh around his old wound.

"I suppose not." Hermione said quietly, laying her head back onto Viktor's chest as her spirits dropped quickly in realization.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Draco crossed his arms as his face took its usual sour expression, "Why are you staring at me?" he snapped.

"I'm waiting for an idea." Goyle said, "Besides, do you think I want to sit over there with those three?"

Draco's eyes traced over the Lestranges, who had done nothing but sit and mutter since Crabbe's abduction, "I know I don't." he said, "I'd rather be with Professor Snape."

"What about your dad?" Goyle asked.

"I'd suspect that he is dead." Draco said, showing little compassion and no signs of mourning, "He's been gone far too long."

"But what-" Goyle started, silencing when the artificial stone slid aside and three male Muggles stepped in, "Hullo... what do you suppose they're up to?"

"Sh." Draco said, "Don't stand up, and don't look at them."

Goyle followed his orders, looking instead to the Lestrange three, all of which had stood and were advancing towards the Muggles, "Aren't they going to put them out?"

"They have to be awake for their aggression tests, all of them." The Muggle said, walking over to the two boys to ensure they didn't attack, "We're all clear here."

"Jack." Another Muggle whispered, taking a step back, "Look at them."

"These two little ones can wait." The man Jack replied, "Stop fooling around before they get aggressive."

The Muggle hesitated before loading a small capsule into his tranquilizer gun and aiming for Bellatrix; a quiet whoosh of air sounded and Bella cried out, stumbling back into her husband. Rudolphus roared in anger, throwing himself forward as the third Muggle shot Rabastan. Another quick load and Rudolphus had stumbled back, but it didn't take long for the Lestrange men to get back on their feet, fueled by pain and the newly-injected neurotoxins flowing through their systems, "Hey look you two! Get them tranquilized!"

The Muggles shot a round of tranquilizers into the Wizards to no avail, and turned to look at Jack and Rudolphus reached one of them, taking his head in his hands and snapping his neck with a large crack, "SAM!" the second Muggle yelled.

"Your Uncle Rudolphus just killed one of them!" Goyle said.

Draco nodded quickly, unable to speak as horror seized his heart, "SHOOT THEM ALLEN!" Jack cried, running across the display towards the scene, "TAKE HIM DOWN!"

Jack pulled his weapon from his belt and fired at Rudolphus; the projectile from his weapon was not a dart, but a bullet, and the large Wizard fell instantly, "They're alright." Goyle muttered, "It's going to be alright."

Draco blinked back tears and nodded again as his friend spoke, reaching quickly to grip Goyle's robes as he struggled to stay calm. Jack shot Rabastan next, leaving Bellatrix alive as he ran to the Muggle called Sam, dropping his gun and taking his pulse, "He's dead." Allen muttered, "Why didn't they arm us all?"

"They didn't suspect this." Sam said, closing his coworker's dead eyes with a gentle touch while Allen bent and picked up his gun, "What are you doing?"

Allen lifted the gun and aimed, firing a bullet into the female wizard and dropping the gun calmly, "I quit."

Goyle sat Indian style for what must have been an hour, watching the wave of Muggles that came and took the bodies; they cleaned the display of blood and gave Goyle many wary looks. Draco lay draped over Goyle's lap with his face hidden in his arms, sobbing and whimpering in fear; Goyle let him cry, giving the boy an occasional pat on the back.

"LET GO OF ME YOU FILTHY MONSTERS!"

"Harry!"

The Boy Who Lived moved his head from under the water and listened, wiping water from his eyes, "Ron?!" he called loudly.

"Harry, come quick!" Ron shouted.

Harry struggled into his pants on as he ran from the waterfall, dripping wet and stumbling over himself while tripping blindly over numerous holes and rocks, "What is..."

"Harry!" Ron said, grabbing his friend and leading him over to a blurry figure on the ground, "Look who it is!"

"Are they related to you?" Harry asked, groping for a hint.

"Harry! Go get your glasses!" Ron said, pushing the boy away gently.

Harry ran back to the water and picked up his glasses, wiping them on his somewhat dry pants and putting them on. He hurried back to the scene and gasped, "Neville!"

"I yelled five times but apparently you're deaf without your glasses too." Ron said from where he knelt next to the tall boy.

Harry observed the ugly bruise rising on Neville's arm around a small pinhole, "They really got him."

"He was on his way out when they brought him in here, only had one good yell in him really." Ron said.

"I didn't think Neville had any good yells in him." Harry said, adjusting his glasses, "Hey Neville! Neville can you hear me?"

Neville stirred slightly and opened his eyes, "Harry... Ron?"

"There you are! Wow you sure gave those Muggles a fight huh?" Ron said.

"They killed my Gran." Neville said in a stupor, "I saw it... they took her and Dumbledore away because they were too... too old, said it was... was..."

"Was what Neville?" Ron asked, Harry unable to speak.

"Humane."

"He's confused because of the poison." Harry said, "Dumbledore isn't dead. Neville, what really happened?"

The boy was out again, his dark hair falling in his eyes as he slept, "Harry-"

"Don't." Harry cut the red-haired boy off, standing and storming away.

"I hope you're wrong Neville." Ron said, "I really hope you are."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Are you alright Narcissa?"

Narcissa looked up at her husband and nodded, moving her hand from her forehead, "I have a headache; that's all." She assured. After a moment she spoke again, "Lucius? Where… where is Draco? I swear I saw him only a moment ago. I can never keep up with that boy anymore."

Lucius looked at Narcissa in confusion, "Narcissa they took him two days ago."

She shook her head and looked down at her hands, "Of course… I don't know why I asked that."

"Are you sure you're alright?" Lucius asked, walking over to sit beside his wife.

Narcissa smiled and took his hand, "I'm just very tired dear."

Lucius kissed her gently and looked into her eyes with concern; had the Muggles taken more than Draco when they moved his wife?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Arthur smiled to himself as his thoughts carried him far from his ghastly imprisonment, back to the burrow, back to Molly and the children. After exposing Arthur to the 'elements', the Muggles had strapped Arthur to a gurney in the staff-occupied part of the laboratory to rest. It was far more humane a confinement than the small glass-encased rooms, for the straps were padded, and Arthur could entertain himself by observing the Muggle scientists he had never seen. The Muggles in this room were different, and they spoke to Arthur, treating him not as an equal, but a somewhat intelligent living thing. With the knowledge that his wife and children were at least safe, and a new spot in a warm room with far softer lighting, Arthur could enjoy what little social stimulation the Muggles provided. Arthur was jerked from his thoughts when a door slammed open and three Muggles rushed in from the night, "We need a gurney and a vet over here now!" one of them said.

The Muggles placed what they had been carrying onto a nearby gurney and Arthur recognized him, "Remus what happened?" He whispered.

Remus Lupin moved his head slowly to look at Arthur, blood laced down the side of his head from an injury close to his temple and more blood pooled on his lips; when Lupin spotted Arthur his eyes widened in terror and his jaw worked as though he were trying to speak, but only gasps escaped the Wizard.
