Remus raced to where they were told, trying to tell himself they didn't know it was his son. It didn't help; in fact it made it worse in a way. He knew the chances it was Albus were slim to none, which meant one had been injured or killed, and the other taken. He knew there was no reason for Fred to have been taken, and he would have fought to the death to protect Harry, before he allowed him to be taken. The one comfort was Albus wouldn't want another death on his hands, and he would have incapacitated Fred, if it was at all possible. The worst scenarios were running through his head, and at this moment he just needed to find out what happened. He didn't know what Albus hoped to gain, he would have avoided prison time before, just been fired. Now he was looking at Azkaban, and it scared them all to wonder just how far the man was willing to go.

Sure enough the person they found was Fred. He wasn't hurt too bad, there wasn't even any blood, he was simply unconscious. He was taken into the nearest shop, which happened to be the ice cream parlor, and Florean let them use his back room. Severus found Fred had received some kind of nasty shock, and would soon come around.

Sure enough Fred groaned. "What happened?"

Remus was anxious. "We were hoping you could tell us."

Severus summoned some water. "Give him a few moments to clear his head."

Lucius was as anxious. "Harry?"

Fred looked up. "We have to go and get him."

The others were confused, they had no idea where Harry had been taken. They knew Fred could just be disoriented from the shock, they had no idea what had caused it, and needed a few moments. He tried to get up but when he got to his feet, he was wobbly, and his brothers forced him to sit back down. George was worried sick about his twin, but he noticed what the others had not, an item Fred wore around his wrist. It was a new product the twins had been working on, not really a joke product, but inspired by their brother.

Fred knew they had to get to Harry soon, and Albus as well. The trap he had set wouldn't last long, and Harry would be a sitting duck for Albus. He tried to stand up again, but this time his legs held him, though his head spun still.

George spoke up. "Is Harry in one?"

Fred nodded. "But Albus followed him through. I tried to stop him."

Lucius was confused. "What the hell do you mean?"

Fred motioned him to follow. "I will explain on the way, but we don't have much time."

George assured them. "He is thinking clearly I promise."

They explained, it was called a rabbit hole spell, inspired by Harry. He had told them once about a book he remembered as a kid, that a girl fell through a rabbit hole into another world. The spell would work similar, on any door, but only for a short time. It looked to the user like they were in the room meant, but in fact it was simply an allusion, a kind of trap spell. They had created it as a way of ensuring people didn't sneak into your room. The person was either trapped for twenty minutes until; released, pr were expelled/ Fred had used the product, even though he knew it hadn't been fully tested, it was the only way. If it didn't work, Harry was in a store room of the menagerie for real, which had happened usually when they tested it, the spell only lasted seconds.

Fred explained as they approached the door, the spell was only big enough for one of them. Albus was caught some where in between. Fred had tried to stop Albus as the trap wouldn't last. He worried Albus and his brother would both end up in the store room, and Fred would have no way to get to him. He was shocked by his own product.

Fred took off the item which acted as a key. "Be ready, once I unlock Albus will be free."

Harry was confused and scared, he had no idea what was happening, more worried for his brother. He had no idea how Albus had found him, or how he knew what Harry now looked like. His allies were to be trusted, and surely the Weasleys wouldn't face banishment. He knew they lied and took money, he heard with his own ears they didn't care about him, but not this. They claimed he had put their children in danger, he didn't think they would be such hypocrites to put him in it. Or fools enough to be tricked once again. But the man had come after him, and had hit Harry along the upper arm with a severing charm, he was bleeding badly. He had no idea what his brother had done, he threw something at a door, and when the door vanished into white light for a moment, shoved Harry at it.

Harry looked around in confusion, at where he was, not sure. It looked like a back room, and of the menagerie from the items, but he knew he wasn't. He got a minor shock when he attempted to touch something in the room. Fred had mentioned something of a new product, but not what. Harry was terrified, but for his brother.

Harry tried to stop the bleeding. "Please be okay Fred, please."

He was shocked when he heard a banging sound. A voice shouted. "Let me out."

Harry was scared as he couldn't recognize the voice. "Fred?"

The voice continued."I am stuck, help."

Harry had no idea what to do, he didn't know what the spell was. He didn't understand how Fred got stuck in his own product, but he knew it was a new one, and perhaps not tested. He knew it could be Albus though, he didn't know who had come through, or where either of them were now. He got a second shock, this time slightly more, when he attempted to touch where the sound came from.

The voice kept calling. "Help Harry, help. We need to get out of here."

Harry's mind cleared. "If you are really Fred what form of an animagus am I?"

The voice stopped for a moment. "A dog, like your dad and Uncle."

Harry backed away but too far, and yelped when he got a third shock. "You're not Fred."

Albus snarled. "Free me and we will have a nice chat, and your little brother won't be hurt."

Harry knew something was happening, he could feel the room shift, he was starting to feel dizzy. For a moment he thought he was dizzy, and the room just seemed to be spinning. But he realized it was the other way around, and what ever the spell was, was wearing off. He noticed a door out of the room, and he knew if he found himself in the real store room, is must lead to the shop. He prayed it was unlocked, and he would have the time to flee through it, before the spell holding Albus came down as well. And that where ever his brother was, he was safe.

He felt the chair and realized he was in the real room and made a break for the door. He knew he was risking others, but he hoped Albus would not take the risk. He wouldn't want the kiss, pr Harry hoped he was not too far gone.

Just as he was about to open the door he heard Albus. "You should have taken my offer when I made it."
