Kyo had to admit Molly looked rather nice in muggle clothing. Molly and Arthur both transfigured a couple of their cloaks into muggle looking clothing. Both Cecily and Kyo told them what to wear for the conference. Molly was in a black skirt, flats, and white button-up shirt.

"This is uncomfortable..." Molly mutter as she shifted in her skirt.

"It's only for a few hours, Darling," Arthur told her softly. He was in a three-piece suit, something Cecily suggested for the older man.

"Mom, you like nice," Bill smiled as he walked up to his mother, Ben, Leonard, Lacy, and Harry all right beside him.

"It's still uncomfortable," Molly huffed softly.

"Okay, now this conference shouldn't take too long, Bill, are you sure you can watch these four?" Kyo asked him, Bill only laughed haughtily at Kyo.

"I can handle them, plus my own siblings, it's nothing," Bill waved her off softly before pushing them towards the fireplace "It'll be fine."

"Alright..." With that, all four of them, one by one, they stepped into the fireplace and flooed away in a puff of green fire. Harry stood beside Ben and watched them leave. Once they were gone, Bill turned to all of them and gave them a nod.

"Okay, I have to finish up some summer homework so, we can do this one of two ways. One: You guys go and hang around with my other siblings. Two: We all go outside where I can watch you guys while I do my homework." Bill told them.

"Outside is fine..." Leonard muttered softly.

"I would like to feel the sun on my face," Lacy hummed as she hung on Leonard's arm.

"Can we play on the play brooms?" Ben asked with a grin on his face.

"Well, there are only two, so you guys have to share," Bill told Ben simply, Ben and Harry nodded understandably. "Alright then, you guys go outside I need to get my stuff."

Everyone piled outside, the hot July air hitting their faces making them feel like they got hit with a damp towel, and then like they were smothered with that towel afterward. Still, Ben raced to the shed and grabbed the two play brooms. Harry allowed Ben and Leonard to play on the brooms while he slunk away to talk to Helga, his snake friend. He sat beside the shed, almost out of sight, just close enough for Bill to see him, but farther enough away to were Ben or Leonard won't bother him.

"Hello, little friend,' Helga came slithering from behind the shed. "No, older woman today?"

"No... I don't think she liked you," Harry told Helga softly, "After I showed you to her, she left to Dumbledore... I think she think's I'm a freak..." Harry confided in his friend as he huddled his knees up to his chest.

"She is wrong if that is what she thinks,"

"What awe you doin'?" Lacy asked scaring Harry. Harry put his hand to his chest and looked up at the blind girl. "Wewe you hissing?" Lacy asked another question as she tilted her head in question.

"Uh... no..." Harry lied hoping Lacy wouldn't pick up on the lie, but she just scowled and put her hands on her hips.

"I'm blind, Hawwy. My heawing is ex-... ex..." She frowned before pouting slight when she couldn't get the big word out. "My Heawing is better than you think." She finally spat out.

"She is a smart one, I can tell," Helga hissed softly as she flicked her tiny tongue out of her mouth.

"Are you speaking to a snake-"

Harry shot up and put a hand on her mouth being careful so Leonard didn't see he spoke softly to Lacy.

"Okay, yes, you caught me. Her name is Helga, I can talk to snakes..." Harry finally admitted to her. Slowly, he let go of Lacy's mouth. Lacy seemed to have a frown on her face for a moment.

"I think... you should tell Ben..." Lacy hummed softly.

"What if he thinks I'm a... freak?" Harry asked her softly, Lacy only giggled softly.

"Hawwy?"

"Yes?"

"You awe aware that Ben has nevwar once judged you for anything?" Lacy asked him as she tucked some of her hair behind her ear. Harry fidgeted a little as he leaned down to pick up Helga. Helga slid under his shirt sleeve and rested behind his neck.

"I don't know..."

"So, does the snake have a name?" Lacy questioned as she sat down next to Harry carefully.

"Helga, she named herself," Harry told Lacy as he brought his arm out, Helga poked her head out before slinking back into Harry's sleeve clearly not interested.

For a while Lacy and Harry sat together and talked calmly to one another, however; over time Harry's bladder started to get uncomfortable. Excusing himself from Lacy, he got up and hurried off towards the restroom. Bill didn't even look up from his potions book. Rushing towards the restroom at a fast rate, Harry quickly relieved himself. Once he was done Harry washed his hands and then got ready to go back outside, but he stopped when heard a dull thud come from Charlie's room.

Helga let out a low hiss and slithered farther up Harry's arm resting on his shoulder now. Harry let out a frown, was Charlie alright? Going up to the teen's room, Harry cautiously knocked on the door.

"Charlie?" He asked softly. He didn't get a response, so Harry opened the door slowly. "Charlie are you alright?" He asked again before opening the door fully. "Charlie!" Harry yelled out as he rushed over to the redhead.

Charlie was on the ground. His head was against the wall while his body on the floor, but his legs were on his bed. Scabbers suddenly went rushing past Harry, and out of the room. Harry let the rat go as he ran to Charlie and started to shake the teenager. "Charlie! Charlie!" Harry screamed out in fear.

Ron! Ron could help! Getting up, Harry turned and ran into Ron's room. Bursting through the door Harry felt his breath leave his mouth when he saw Ron and Ginny both unconscious on the ground.

"Harry this isn't good... the rat!" Helga hissed towards him.

"Percy!" Harry screamed... or hissed, he wasn't sure because he was in such a panic. It shouldn't have surprised him when he ran into Percy's room, the other redhead was also on his floor unconscious. Standing there, petrified, Harry stood there in the doorway before finally opening his mouth and letting out a loud scream.

"BILL!"

He didn't know if the twins were okay, but right now, he needed the eldest Weasley right now. Rushing down the stairs, Harry started yelling for Bill as loud and as fast as he could.

"Bill! Bill! Bill! BILL!"

Almost falling down the stairs Harry turned the corner and ran into Bill, Bill, being quick, grabbed Harry around the middle, stopping him from almost falling again.

"Whoa! Whoa! What's going on!? Where's the fire?" Bill asked.

"EVERYONE IS UNCONCIOUS!" Harry screamed out, he watched as Ben, Leonard, and Lacy all come rushing in through the back door clearly worried. Bill rushed past Harry and up the stairs. There was a moment of silence as Bill seemed to assess the damage. It didn't take long before Bill came running back downstairs.

"What are you doing?" Harry asked as Bill went running to the Fireplace.

"Be there! Please! Someone!" Bill poked his head in the fireplace, however, he didn't get what he wanted as he came back out of the fireplace. "Bullocks! Everyone is gone to that stupid-"

"BILL!" Leonard suddenly screamed out as he grabbed Lacy and pushed her behind him. Bill seemed to be at the ready as he had his wand in his hand already. Suddenly a brilliant blue shield went in front of Bill right before a white light suddenly went rushing to him the shield protecting Bill from the spell.

Ben grabbed Harry's arm and pulled him back. Harry felt his breath get caught in his throat again when a man suddenly came into view Harry didn't know this man, but he had his wand out, pointed at Bill. "Kids Hide!... this is going to get ugly..." Bill snarled at the man, Leonard picked Lacy up and went running to the outside. Ben started to pull Harry to the outside as well, but Harry kept looking at the man. The man suddenly started to throw a spell at Bill, Bill was quick to retaliate. "GO!" Bill screamed at the two of them. Finally, Ben managed to get Harry to move and with that, the two of them went outside and ran up to the fence.

Ben and Leonard seemed to go into a mix of thief mode and protective mode as they were quick make sure that Lacy and Harry got over the backyard fence first by hosting the two up and carefully putting them over before silently climbing the fence themselves.

"What about the rest of the Weasley's?" Harry asked once Ben dropped down next to him. Ben never got to answer that question as a white light just hardly missed him.

"I have a feeling it's not them this guy is after!" Ben yelled as he grabbed Harry's wrist and took off with Lacy and Leonard. Quickly all four of them rushed into the denser part of the woods. Leonard and Ben taking the lead, being quick to dodge the trees and low hanging branches.

"Who is this creep!?" Leonard demanded as he now had Lacy on his hip, he actually went as far as to hold Lacy on the front of him so to shield the girl from any spells coming their way.

"It's the rat, Harry, the rat. The one I told you was odd," Helga whispered into Harry's ear softly, her tongue lightly grazing over his ear softly as she spoke to him.

"Scabbers?!" Harry asked aloud, he thought he was speaking to Helga directly, but that turned to be untrue when Ben had grabbed him and moved him to the side, just barely missing another spell coming their way. All four of them turned and hid the shadows of the thick trees.

"What about that fat rat?" Ben asked in a hushed whisper as they continued to run just a little quieter this time around. Lacy was whimpering to Leonard's shirt softly and clung for dear life to his collar.

"Helga says that man is Scabbers..." Harry spoke softly to Ben as they took another turn, hoping to throw the man off, for a moment all was silent, still, they turned one last time and hid amongst the thick trees.

"Who is Helga?" Ben asked in a soft whisper. Leonard crouched next to Harry. The eldest was now trying to stop Lacy from crying. Harry, not wanting to explain much, just too Helga out of his shirt.

"That's a snake..." Leonard pointed out the obvious as he still managed to keep a sharp lookout for the man.

"Harry can talk to them," Lacy whispered into Leonard's ear, loud enough for Ben to hear.

"You're a Parseltongue?" Ben asked his eyes wide as he stared disbelieving at Harry.

"Oh? This one seems to know something the others do not, at least... he speaks it that is." Helga hissed softly to Harry.

"What?" Harry could only whisper back in confusing to Helga's sentence.

"Holy Merlin-" Ben breathed out his eyes now the comical size of dinner plates as he stared wide-eyed at Harry. He never got to finish his sentence as Leonard spoke up with a quick,

"Sh!"

After a few heartbeats of pure silence, they could all hear it, the menacing sounds of footsteps crunching against the fallen leaves and branches on the forest floor. The person was looking for them.

"... We need to move... He just whispered 'Point me' to something," Lacy quickly spoke. They didn't need any more prompting as they got up and took off again. Harry started feeling tired and was getting a painful stitch in his side, but he knew he didn't want to get caught. Suddenly they all just seemed to slow down and stop, none of them knew why, but they just stopped. Harry placed Helga back on his shoulder before grasping on to Ben's hand fearfully. He really really didn't want to be there right now. Grabbing Leonard's hand in fear, Harry shut his eyes tightly. What could he do? They couldn't keep running forever, they were all growing tired. He wished... he wished he could just... GET AWAY from the forest... FAR AWAY so the strange man couldn't FIND THEM! for once he wanted to go back to Surry, at least that was safer than anywhere at the moment! There was no crazy rat man hunting any of them down in SURREY!

What happened next was a feeling Harry hadn't felt in a good while, as the world moved around them, all of them, but they didn't move as it felt like their chests were being compressed as it was becoming increasingly difficult to breathe, but then, all at once they just... fell onto the sandy playground in Surry. Harry felt drained and dizzy, he tried to stand, but he just wound up falling onto his backside. He felt ill and sick, he just needed to lay down, just for a moment.

"That was some powerful magic, young one, transporting all four of you, foolish..." Helga spoke softly to Harry.

"Is that what happened?... I transported myself and Ben, once, I didn't feel this tired before..."

"I am just a snake, I do not know much about your magic, however; I think I can safely say, there is a difference between transporting two people, and four."

"Harry!... did you do this?" Ben asked, clearly ignoring the fact that Harry was speaking to Helga at the moment, as he rushed and propped Harry up against the swing set.

"I'm tired..." Harry sleepily muttered. The bright daylight showed over the four of them and they all quickly glanced around in fear.

"Okay... we need to do something fast, all of the Weasley's are knocked unconscious, the twins are at this stupid conference, Harry looks dead on his feet, and we stick out like sore thumbs in this neighborhood. Someone will find us, I'm sure of it.

"Mrs. Figg..." Harry sleepily spoke.

"Who is that?" Ben questioned Harry softly as he leaned down.

"My babysitter...she lives on Wisteria Walk..." Harry rested his head against the swing set and allowed his to sleepily close, he just needed to rest them for a moment.

"How far are we from Privet 4 drive!?" Ben asked Leonard, jumping up quickly, the two of them surveyed the area quickly. Finally, Leonard just slapped his hands to his sides unsure. "I don't think we're close, we need to get to Little Whinging, man."


To say the conference was a disaster was an understatement, a big one at that. At first, things went fine. They sat at their large table, the twins chose to sit at the farthest end. Then Oliver showed up, and everything just went downhill from there. Oliver was a pompous ass, and Kyo was eternally grateful that Ben did not end up like his father. Things didn't help when the rest of the parents came. The Dursley's, in particular, made things insanely difficult on the twins.

"JUST TAKE THE RUDDY BOY!" Harry's uncle boomed, not even waiting for the conference to start. Yeah, no he wasn't a good man. Still, some good things came to light, Oliver let his own abuse and attitude slip out, David flat out admitted his abuse towards Leonard, and Amanda was so smashed she couldn't even think straight, Kyo and Cecily knew the reporters must have been having a field day, then... Kyo's and Cecily's own skeletons came out of the closet when the Dursley's found out that this was not some "trial" for adoption, but in fact, them more or less talking to a bunch of wizarding reporters about their abuse, that's when things took a downfall.

Petunia, so furious over being lied to, took her water and angrily dumped it on Cecily. Cecily took it well honestly, Kyo did not. All she knew was that it ended with Vernon getting in her face, spilling more than he should have about how he didn't want Harry and wanted to drown him. With that, the Dursley's took their leave, telling the twins to "keep him" ('Him' being Harry of course) like he was just some puppy they found. Needless to say, the reporters were going to be talking about this and nothing else for years to come.

Then... Oliver lost his temper. He started banging his fists and accusing the twins of kidnapping his boy out of his own home. Whenever either of them tried to tell the true story, Oliver wouldn't listen, he just started refusing to really say much of anything and wouldn't let them finish anything, even if the question was for them, he would still speak up like the question was for him. It took a lot of willpower for Kyo to not punch Oliver in the dick right then and there... but after the two-hour mark that's when the conference took a much more darker turn. An owl came swooping in and landed on Molly's lap. For whatever reason, that Owl, that should have stayed at the Burrow, came to Molly forcing her to open the letter, a letter that proudly proclaimed to everyone in the conference room that William Weasley had been expelled for using Magic outside of school.

The conference ended on that note.

Everyone had flooed to the Burrow in a hurry, what they saw when they got there was not something they expected. Bill was laying on the floor unconscious as he looked up at the ceiling with a vacant stare.

"WILLAIM!" Molly panicked loudly running to her eldest.

"Rennervate!" Arthur yelled, waking Bill up. Bill sat up quick sucking in a deep breath.

"the others! He knocked them all out!" Bill screamed loudly, he quickly scrambled to his feet, ready to wake his siblings.

"Molly! Make sure the others are alright!" Arthur ordered as he grabbed Bill and sat him down. Molly didn't need to be told twice.

"The kids!" Cecily yelled out she was ready to run upstairs as well, but Bill's soft voice stopped the two of them dead in their tracks.

"No... They got out ..." Bill breathed out. "I don't know how far they got, I tried to protect them the best I could but..."

"Bill... who did this?" Arthur asked him softly as he gently rubbed his son's back as Bill groaned out. Bill only looked at his dad slightly. The twins could hear Molly screaming to her other children, both of them hoped all of them were unharmed. Still, Kyo felt her own fear creep up on her as she grew anxious about their own children, they shouldn't be standing here, but they were.

"I don't think you're going to believe me but... I think it was Peter Pettigrew..."


Ben let out a low grunt as he shifted Harry on his back, Harry was now dead asleep on his back. Helga the snake rested on Harry's shoulder occasionally letting out a soft hiss. Ben knew one thing, Harry was heavy. Breathing out softly, he looked over at Leonard and Lacy, Lacy also fast asleep, however; Leonard could easily hold on to Lacy as he held her close to his chest.

"Do you think we're close?" Ben asked Leonard as they cautiously kept a look out for any cars.

"I'm trying to figure out just where we are, we might be close... hopefully," Leonard breathed out softly as he ran his fingers through Lacy's hair gently. Together they continued to walk down the road.

"Weonawd..." Lacy sleepily asked as she woke up, Ben watched as Lacy rubbed her eye sleepily before sniffing softly.

"Yes, Kiddo?" Leonard asked as he continued to walk.

"I wost my shoe..." Lacy whined softly. Ben looked at Lacy's feet and she was wiggling her sock-clad toes to prove her point, she did have her other flat on, thankfully.

"Sorry, Kid, I must have let it slip while running at one point," Leonard told her softly.

"S'okay... where are we?"

"Somewhere in Surry-"

"-Hey!" Ben yelled out happily before rushing forward and pointing at a sign in the distance. "Privet Drive! Who knew..."

With new found vigor they hurried, however even though Privet Drive was a nice site, they needed to get to Wisteria Walk which was hopefully not that far from Privet Drive.

"You know..." Lacy spoke up as she sleepily rested her head on Leonard's chest. "We could just ask the Durswey's for help, they are closer than this... Mrs. Figg."

"Absolutely not!" Ben snapped bitterly. "I would rather that crazed man attack us than go to the Dursley's for help!"

"We could at least ask for directions to Wisteria Walk, they have to know it," Leonard paused his walking to look at Privet drive number 4. "Besides. I don't want to be running blind anymore, let's just get there and go!"

"You know... that's not a bad idea, but we can't have Harry around them... but you two... now... maybe this could work, they don't know who you guys are. Okay, here's the plan..."


"Mrs. Figg!" Ben yelled out as he knocked on the woman's door. Leonard and Lacy behind him, Lacy now finally standing up as she was starting to get too heavy for Leonard to carry. The plan went off without a hitch, it was honestly a simple plan. Ben ran up at the end of the street, out of sight from the Dursleys while Leonard and Lacy pretended to be lost looking for their aunt on Wisteria Walk. Petunia pointed them on their way, and here they were... knocking on every door because they had no clue just where Mrs. Figg lived. This was their third door.

Luck seemed to be on their side when a batty old woman with gray hair sticking out at every angle opened the door. She looked down at them, and her eyes fell on Harry. Without another word, she practically threw the four of them into her house. Ben tried so hard not to gag at the overwhelming smell of cat litter that hit his nose.

"What happened?" Mrs. Figg asked them as she was quick to take Harry and lay him on the couch. Several of her cats came to see what the problem was as they watched with interest.

"We were attacked at the Weasley's, Harry accidentally sent us all back to Surrey and... he's been asleep ever since..." Ben explained quickly.

"Of course apparition at a young age is taxing, especially if he accidentally brought all four of you with him..." Mrs. Figg huffed before turning to her fireplace, Ben watched as she poked her head in like Bill had earlier. Ben let her do her own than as he finally got to sit down for just a moment. One of her cats came over and he happily patted the cat on top of its head. For a while, Leonard, Lacy, and Ben all just sat around petting the cats as a slow clock ticked on by. Finally, after what felt like forever, Mrs. Figg came back to them, some dry looking biscuits on a plate.

"I talked to Dumbledore, he's on his way, please, you guys look hungry and thirsty," She softly spoke as she laid the biscuits down. Ben was right about them being dry, that's for sure. Still, he didn't realize how hungry he was until he started eating. Leonard and Lacy must have felt the same way as soon all three of them were eating. Up until the fireplace roared to life. Expecting Dumbledore or the even the twins they all dropped their food and stood up, however; Ben's breath got caught in his throat when he saw who really stepped out of Mrs. Figgs fireplace.

"Dad..." Ben breathed out in shock.

Okay, I really have to say it now, please, please! Review!
