Chapter 14
"Harry wake up! We need you up now!" Harry awoke to Remus yelling as he ran across the room.
"Moony? What's wrong" Harry asked as he jumped out of bed.
"We need you in the library" said Remus. "Something happened and Jarrod said for us to get there."
They both ran through the halls as quickly as they could. As they reached the library, they heard many voices yelling. They stepped into the library and watched the drama unfold. A sea of redheads and one brown haired had several of his guards surrounded. All of them were talking at once and Harry couldn't make sense of what they were saying.
Across the room was the Dursley's. There were two guards with them. The Dursley's looked terrified. Harry had a bad feeling in his gut. Mikah saw Harry and shot sparks into the air. In the silence that followed, Harry and Remus smiled.
"You're right Moony" said Harry. "The drama in here is much better than in my dreams!" Everyone turned and stared as Harry and Remus laughed. "Would anyone like to tell me why I'm being invaded with Weasley's" Harry asked.
"HARRY" yelled many voices. Hermione and the Weasleys swarmed him. They were all shouting questions at him until Remus and Mikah rescued him. Mikah shop sparks into the air again to get everyone's attention. "Everyone take a seat and we'll sort everything out."
Jarrod turned to Harry. "I hope you don't mind but we put guards on the Dursley's, Weasley's, and the Granger's. I was worried that they would become targets since they are associated with you. They were attacked tonight. I think the death eaters were looking for you. No one was injured and we managed to kill and capture several DE's. The bad news is that both the Weasley's and the Dursley's homes were destroyed. I made the decision to bring them here. I hope you don't mind boss.
"You did the right thing," said Harry. "I'm glad nobody was injured. I'll answer your questions but first I must speak with the Dursley's." Harry and Remus walked over to the Dursley's.
"Were you injured," asked Harry? They glared at him but shook their heads no. "I know it is late and you would like to rest. If you would prefer, I could get you rooms away from everyone else. I will try to see that you aren't disturbed but I need to talk to you tomorrow. I am very sorry this happened. Jarrod will take you to your rooms. I hope you will be comfortable. If you need anything, please let Jarrod know." The Dursley's followed Jarrod out of the room.
"Now for the rest of you" said Harry. "I will answer your questions but one at a time please."
"Where have you been" asked Molly. "Dumbledore has been looking everywhere for you. He is so worried."
Harry and Remus exchanged a look. "I'm sure he is," mumbled Harry. Remus snickered.
"I have been here with Remus" Harry said.
"Oh Harry, we must get Dumbledore right away" said Molly. "We have to get you somewhere safe. What if the death eaters followed us? We can't let them get to you! Harry, call Dumbledore now!" Molly took a breath and was about to continue when Harry walked over to her and hugged her. She was silent as she hugged him back.
"Mr. and Mrs. Weasley" said Harry. "There is something I think you should know." Harry walked over to the desk and took out a piece of parchment. He then handed it to Molly. "Please read this, both of you." He watched Molly and Author as they read his father's will. Molly's face turned red and Author's was white when they finished they both looked at Harry.
"He couldn't have known," said Molly. "He would never...
"The copy probably got lost," said Author. "Dumbledore couldn't, I mean he wouldn't...
"He would, could, and did," said Harry. "I verified that the goblin's delivered it to him. Even if there was some mix-up, HE WITNESSED IT! He knows exactly what he was doing." Harry looked at Molly sadly. "I could have grown up as yours, but he condemned me to hell."
"Oh Harry" Molly said as tears ran down her face. "You are mine. You have been since I first saw you." She hugged Harry tight.
"Yes" said Author as he joined in the hug. "You are my son in all but name. You will stay with us, as you should have all along. I don't care what Dumbledore says about it being too dangerous. You're a Weasley now."
Harry pulled away and smiled at both of them. He turned and took Remus' hand. "There is more I need to tell you," he said. "If you claim me then you must claim my other dad, in all but name. Moony and I are family too. I would be honored to have three parents."
"I wouldn't have it any other way," said Molly. "Welcome to the family Remus."
"Well Moony" joked Harry. "Two days ago you were a bachelor and now you are part father to me and a slew of Weasley's. Don't forget Hermione, you can't have us without her too. Do you think you can handle it?"
Remus laughed. "I always wanted a big family. I guess I'll learn won't I?"
Ron, Hermione, Ginny, and the twins had all been listening to what was said. They ran over to Harry, Remus, Molly and Author. There was lots of hugging and congratulations.
Remus faced Fred and George. "Molly and Author may be used to all your pranks but just remember this. I KNOW all your tricks. We marauders invented most of them," he laughed.
"Our new dad" said Fred.
"Is a marauder?" said George.
"YES" They both yelled. "This is so cool!"
"Ok family" said Harry. "Let's all sit down. There is more I need to tell you." Harry looked shyly at Molly. "Mom, you may let Dumbledore know you are safe when I am finished. Please don't tell him where you are though. It might be best not to mention me at all. He'll find out soon enough. Now, everything I'm about to tell you needs to stay between us. Charlie and Bill can know. You might want to get a hold of them too."
"I don't have a problem with that," said Molly. "I don't know where we are."
"If you would like," said Mikah, "I could call Dumbledore and tell him that the Weasley's and Dursley's are safe. This might take a while and I could tell him you'll contact him later this morning."
"That sounds good," said Author.
"I'm Mikah by the way. There wasn't time for introductions earlier. I'm part of Harry's guard. I can assure you that you are all perfectly safe. No one can find you here. The manor is completely secure. I'll go make that call now." Mikah left the room.
"We're all ears Harry," said Hermione. "You'd better start explaining and it had better be good or both your sisters will beat some sense into you!"
Remus and Harry laughed. "In your wildest dreams you could not imagine everything that has happened in the last two days" said Harry. "Have you ever heard the name Rothwood?"
Molly, Author, and Hermione nodded yes. "Apparently, mom was the lost heir" said Harry. "I am Lord Harry James Potter-Rothwood-Black. You are currently in Rothwood manor, my home."
