Harry was confused when he started to come around. His head felt like cotton balls were filling it. The only time he felt like this was when he took some potion. He hadn't been sick the night before and he wouldn't have taken any thing for sleep. He had been up watching a movie with his brother and even their dad. His parents had made an effort that summer more then before. He thought it might have to do with the fact he was nearly an adult and he would soon be free of them. If they wanted to have a place in his life when he married and had kids. He would not trust it fully as he was hurt too often.

He came around to notice he was not in bed. Well he was in bed but not his at home or school. He was in a make shift bed and from what he could see he was in some kind of cave. There was light but from torches as he didn't seem to be near the mouth. He looked for his wand but couldn't find it. He tried to apparate but couldn't.

Trying to remain calm he started his way through the cave praying it was not a maze "With my luck there is a dragon."

He tried to remain calm but his imagination was getting away with him. He thought during sorting he was in the right house He loved spending hours reading about adventures but not going on them. He would do any thing to be home with a book. Godric would likely not have been too worried. His brother loved to explore and get into new things. He had never wished for some of his brother's courage as much as now.

Harry saw some men off ten feet when he got to the mouth of the cave. He kept down and he hoped they couldn't see him. He had no idea who they were or where they brought him. He had no idea why he was abducted. His brother was the famous one and no one would confuse them.

He heard one of the voices "We should move him. The wards on this place are nothing."

The other man snapped "Are you the leader?" And when the other was silent. "I didn't think so. We have orders to remain here until he comes back."

A third agreed with the first "I don't see why we can't be home and not camping. It would be even easier to move him when he is still out."

Harry's pulse was racing and he knew he had to find a way out. He had no idea who their leader was but he had no intention of ever meeting him. There must be some kind of wards to stop him from apparating out of here. He would not be taken to where ever their home was. He thought this may have been about his brother after all. They knew what the would face if they hurt Godric but most people now knew how close the twins were.

Harry crept back where he found some supplies. He found some of his things but not his wand. He took a pouch with some food and a blanket he found and hoped he would find help soon. He didn't know the first thing about survival techniques without magic techniques.

He slipped out of the cave and headed into the woods "I wish Remus was here. I should have asked him more about the woods."

He had no idea where he was going but he did his best to cover his tracks. He knew they would come after him. He just hoped they wouldn't notice him gone for some time. By the sounds of it he was not expected to wake up as soon as he had. He had no idea what he had been given but Uncle Sev always said he was a hard patient. He could wake up from a strong dose if he had a bad dream.

What he thought was hours later he stopped. He had no sign of the woods ending soon and no idea if he was going the right way. He took a small bit of the bread from the bag and cupping his hands had some water from the river he came upon. He could see it was evening and with no light he would soon have to stop.

He did stop when he heard voices "He must have come this way. We need to find him before its dark."

A voice that sounded familiar but too distant to make out came "I left you to watch him. I can't believe you allowed him to run."

Harry stayed low to the ground "I need to get out of here."

He was sure he wasn't seen but his foot stepped on old wood and it snapped. He could hear voices coming his way and he knew he had to get out of there soon. He kept down but he was running and running. His heart was on fire in his chest and he didn't know where to go but he kept on the move.

Suddenly a hand snagged him "Now there you are."

Potter manor was full of worried people. Moody and Tonks had come but they were off duty. The aurors couldn't be called in officially till there was proof he was abducted or missing longer. His friends had all been contacted and no one had seen him. His wand was still in his room. Even if they had been certain before he hadn't run away that was proof. Harry wouldn't have gone without his wand even if he could apparate now.

Lucius called in his security to help Moody and Tonks. It couldn't be official for a day and Moody couldn't use his men or resources. No one knew how he was taken or why. The Potters' ignoring Harry kept him from the public spotlight. Only their school mates really knew.

Remus was anxious and pacing when he turned to Sirius "Where did they go?"

Sirius knew of course who he spoke of. "They never came back down."

The coupe should have been down here helping. Even if they showed little concern for Harry Godric was in bad shape. He was sure someone was after him and took his brother. The war may have been over but there could be people out there. Remus found the couple in Harry's room. Their voices stopped him.

Lily held to James "This is my fault I am being punished. Remus told me we would lose him. He was taken and Severus is right I wouldn't have even noticed."

James tried comforting her "Harry didn't run away. He was kidnapped but we will get him back. I promise we will have our baby back in our arms."

Lily clung to him "I should have known. How did I not know?"

Standing there Remus listened to them. This was why he and Severus always told Harry his parents loved him. They rarely showed it but they did. As he heard James promise to join the hunt and would give up his fortune in ransom Remus believed him. The dad and mum who proudly showed off their newborn twins in the hospital sat in that room now desperate for answers on what happened to him.

Remus came into the room but before he could say something he noticed something under the bed. "What is that?"
