OMG GUYS I'M SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SORRY! I FEEL SO BAD, BUT MY FRIEND CATHERINE HAS BEEN USING THE COMPUTER ALMOST EVERY NIGHT FOR PAPERS. I NEVER WANT TO GO TO HIGHSCHOOL! UGH. WELL HER PARENTS ARE HAVING SOME PROBLEMS SO… WELL HERE'S THE CHAPTER YA'LL BEEN WAITING FOR!

Fang POV

They walked quickly towards the portkey, but when they got to where it was, it wasn't there. Apparently either they'd missed it or it had been moved. Fang was betting on the latter. He would have done it in his place. It would make it harder for the enemy to steal. The problem with that is that friends can't find it either and would be stuck in the woods searching for it. *Typical. Just typical. We are the ones left behind to search every inch of a forest that was now mostly burnt to ashes by 'complete wackjobs' as Max would say.*

They'd been searching for only a few minutes before Harry disappeared. Fang was first to notice because he felt the vibes coming from him in waves. There was one last Death Eater. He didn't know what he was doing, but he was running through the woods. Jumping from trees when need be. He had to reach Harry.

Seconds later he burst into a clearing, but his feet still propelled him forward to the very middle. There Harry was hiding behind a tree stump. Fang dropped to the ground and silently slithered like a snake over to Harry and sent through their bond *We were wondering what trouble you'd gotten yourself into.* He was about to gasp, but Fang put his hand over his brother's mouth. *You still have a lot to learn* Harry looked at him and then continued his observation of the Death Eater. He pointed his wand at the sky and put up a second dark mark. *This is bad Fang. This is really bad. Two dark marks! My lord, that's crazy!* Fang's mouth tweaked up at the corners at that. *And we aren't?*, that shut Harry up real fast. He chuckled darkly and whispered, "You need to learn that nothing is impossible or crazy Harry. Life is life so you take your lot in it and eat it raw."

The mysterious man apparated right as the others caught up. They all looked at the sky for various amounts of time. Nudge and Max looked up, shrugged, and made their way to Harry and Fang. Angel's brow knit, but she too turned away quickly. Gazzy had to describe to Iggy what a dark mark looked like which took a few minutes, but Ron and Hermione were gawping long after they had trotted over to the boys.

Harry had to call their names to get them out of the shocked trance they had become ensnared in. They blushed and hurried over. The entire group just stood there looking at each other for a long while before looking simultaneously back at the mark.

"Stupefy!" was echoed around the clearing and the grouped ducked all except for Max who took all the hits in stride.

"Stop you imbeciles! That's my son and Harry Potter there!" Mr. Weasley cried as he parted from the crowd.

"Who are the others then Arthur?" A rough man asked.

His name is Bartamious Crouch.

"Hello Bartamious I'm Maximum Ride and this is my Fl- group." Max said, but did not relax her stance which was strategically between the vast majority of their assailants.

"Hey Dad where were you?! We went to where the portkey was like you said, but it wasn't there, and we've been searching through the woods for ages!" Ron yelled grumpily.

"I'm so sorry chil- guys." He said in response to Max's clenched fist. That was smart of him.

"Well let's get going. Time's a wasting' and we need to get home for supper. Molly's making chicken dump-"

"Where's that portkey? I'm getting there first!" Gazzy cried and grabbed Mr. Weasley hard.

"Hey, hey, hey, it's over there by that edge of this clear- Oh dear Lord!" he said as everyone all but trampled him screaming about food and giving each other bloody noses.

Fang, Harry, Ron, and Hermione stayed behind to listen to what was being said.

"How do you know none of them cast the marks?" Crouch was bellowing.

"That lot and him," he said pointing to Fang, "haven't even touched a wand in their entire lifetimes."

"Why did you bring Muggles?! You know that's against the law, Arthur!"

Mr. Weasley sighed and said as if he were talking to a young child, "These children didn't know of their lineage until we met. Fang is actually Harry's long lost twin brother. He was taken at birth from the Muggle hospital that Lily insisted on going to so that her family could be there with her."

He'd done the equivalent of setting of a stink bomb. Every member of the group of wizards' jaws slackened as they compared Harry and Fang. Fang bristled and glared icily at them until they flinched. Mr. Weasley gave him a sharp look, but he just raised an eyebrow and made a 'they-did-it-to-themselves-ticking-me-off-they're-lucky-to-be-alive' look before fading back into his usual emotionless façade.

"Fang and his friends don't like to be stared at." Mr. Weasley said a bit too late.

They gave him a look that said 'way-to-state-the-obvious-bucko'.

"COME ON GUYS! WE NEED TO GET BACK BEFORE THE FOOD GETS COLD!" was shouted loudly by the rest of the Flock.

Fang quirked his smile and turned away at the same exact moment that Harry did and kept pace with him all the way back to the portkey. Ron and Hermione caught up quickly. The last thing Crouch said was, "Good Lord they really are twins!" Harry and Fang shared a look and burst out laughing. Ron and Hermione were grinning and they all walked hand in hand over to where the rest of the Flock was waiting restlessly to get back to the Burrow for Mrs. Weasley's amazing chicken dumplings.
