I believe in the books it is mention practically every pureblood family is related now. Well the Harris' and McGonagalls' are no exception....However. The Harris Clan has more bad eggs...after all most of them were Slytherin XD!

Chapter 37: Potsy's Discoveries

Damien was nipping at Katherine's neck trying to distract her from work and it seemed to be to his advantage as she had giggled and laid down her papers turning to kiss him. Before the snog could get too far along Katherine's stable elf Potsy popped into the room. He was the elf that had been tailing Draco for her.

"Mi-mistress!" the elf squeaked.

"What is it Potsy," Katherine sighed as she broke off the kiss and stared at the little creature.

"Mistress, Master Draco has been fixing a box…a box to let others in not seen. Master Harry and Dumblydore left and haven't returned," the elf said quickly.

"What do you mean haven't returned?" Katherine asked standing and hovering over the desk.

"They left and no tell Mistress' Baby. She cried to sleep," the elf replied.

"Come on Kat we got to move!" Damien said grabbing her hand and pulling her out the door.


Harry and Albus appeared at the top of the tower as the mini battle downstairs raged on.

"Come on dad we got to get you inside," Harry urged trying to support his father's weight.

Albus groaned as they made their way but were stopped my Malfoy and several death eaters.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

Minerva was fighting off the onslaught of death eaters the best she could. She was worried about Harry and Albus and fearful for Honoria. She didn't see the killing curse fired till it was too late to stop it.

But she was saved by a shield. From over her shoulder spells were thrown at the attackers taking them down. She whipped around to see several aurors, Damien, and Katherine running toward her. The aurors ran passed her toward the retreating figures while Katherine grabbed her daughter rather roughly by the arm.

"Where'd Harry and Albus go?" Katherine shouted.

"I-I don't know. They said a mission for the order," Minerva cried.

"What happened?" Katherine continued shaking her.

"The children called alert. Death Eaters in the halls….what are you doing here?" she cried panicked. Her mother never shook her like this before.

"Katherine come on!" Damien urged pulling her arm.

"Mother I…"

"GO to Honoria now!" Katherine snapped as she ran down the hall with Damien.


"Draco don't do this. We can protect you. You don't want to do this," Albus breathed as he gently pushed Harry behind him to protect him.

He was still very weak form the whole Horcrux ordeal.

"I have to," Draco exclaimed.

"Come on Malfoy get it over with," a death eater hissed.

"He's a wimp he's not going to do it," another hissed.

Draco rose is wand and made ready the spell. "Avada Ked…"

"Bombarda Maxima!"

"Immobulus!" two voices shouted as the door that was blocked was blown off its hinges and one of the death eaters fell flat on his face unmoving.

"Stupefy!" Another death eater fell.

"Draco give me that wand. You don't want to do this. Don't be the same disappointment your father is," Katherine said softly but firmly.

Damien was tying up the two death eaters.

Draco's eyes went from Albus to Katherine to the death eaters and back again.

"Draco listen to me. You aren't meant for this. You can be better you can bring your family's name back to the high rank it was…but it won't happen by killing Albus. To kill Albus brings your own death sentence," Katherine said firmly as she stepped closer.

Draco didn't back up but he did flinch a bit.

"I already have a death sentence," Draco said.

"No you don't. We can hide you. I'll keep you safe I promise. Just hand over the wand," she said softly in her grandmother voice.

"I-I…you promise?" Draco asked.

"Yes. You'll be safe," Katherine nodded holding out her hand.

Draco placed the wand in her hand shakily. Katherine's hand closed around it before she pulled him into a hug holding him close.

"It's over Draco. It's over," she whispered.

Harry was astonished to see his enemy crying into his grandmother's chest holding her for dear life.

"Harry, Harry come on help me get him back to his office. Kat can treat him better there," Damien said pretty much jsut carrying Albus.


Minerva was trying desperately to calm her baby when the small group busted in the bedroom.

"Oh god Albus!" Minerva cried rushing to her husband's side as he was laid on the bed.

"Damien take Minerva and Harry outside. Now!" Katherine snapped as she started rifling through Severus and Poppy's bags.

Damien nodded and practically carried the two out as the door was shut after them.

"I suppose you gave him a year to live?" Katherine asked turning to Severus as she drew a clear liquid out of a vial with a needle.

"It's true. I know dark arts Katherine," Severus snapped.

Draco was sitting off to the side afraid what would happen if he left Katherine's sight.

"Severus you don't know enough about anything," Katherine snapped as she injected Albus and watched as his ragged breathing evened out.

"Then why didn't you fix his arm before?" Severus growled.

"I've been a bit busy trying to round up your sorry friends and keep your arse out of jail. Talk to me like that again young man and I'll give you what for!" Katherine screeched.

Severus wisely kept his mouth shut.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

Two hours later they all came out of the bedroom; Katherine looking especially tired and drained.

"He'll be fine Mina. Let him sleep." Katherine sighed and gripped Draco's shoulder, "Draco will be coming with us."

Minerva nodded as she and Harry rushed into the bedroom to see Albus.
