Chapter 25

Ginny

After receiving the information, the desk clerk gave them, Hailee and Remus made their way towards the exit. When a nurse came running up to them. "Excuse me. Excuse me. "She said until Hailee turned around to her. "I am sorry but I overheard you asking about that poor girl from last night. "

"Yes. She is my niece, we think." Remus replied, "She has been missing for some time now."

"Maybe I can help you. This young girl was mumbling the name 'Harry" over and over again. Even once we sedated her she called out his name." The nurse told them.

"Oh Blimey, Rem… Dad, it's Ginny." Hailee concluded.

"Was she alone?" Remus asked.

"Well, no but I didn't believe what the man said. He said he was her father, He said his name was Lucius. Let me think a minute, He was a taller man, with greasy black hair." She informed them.

They didn't wait both charged towards the door, yelling "thank you "over their shoulders.

"Remus take me to the hospital and then get Dumbledore. I can handle that slimy git." Hailee ordered. Remus nodded his agreement and grabbed her arm. They had apparated to right next to the hospital in an alleyway that looked desolate. "I'll go find her and keep her safe until you can bring Dumbledore back. "

Remus disappeared with a crack. Hailee made her way into the hospital. She was following the signs leading her towards the burn unit. She reached the waiting room and saw not only Snape sitting there but another woman Hailee didn't recognize but she had heard Snape start talking, "Bella we can't let her die. The Dark Lord has plans for her. You know this now sit down and shut up." The greasy git snapped. This Bella didn't look too happy about it but she sat down.

The door to the room wasn't open very far so gently Hailee reached in and pulled it shut she took out her wand because she knew once she shut that door they would know someone was there. She pointed the tip of her wand at the knob and as it clicked shut she muttered, "confervefacio facre. This would make the knob too hot for the muggles to touch and it would melt the metal in the latch. Once the latch was done, she put an imperturbable charm on the door so that they could not draw attention from the muggles. Then Hailee looked in the door to find Snape staring out the door at her. She gave an evil sneer and made her way down the hall checking in each room for a mass of red hair. Finally, she found her.

"Ginny its Hailee I am here. Remus has gone to get Dumbledore." Hailee soothed. She turned to lock the door but found her self under the heavy gaze of George. "George?"

"You ignorant fool. I knew you were not the insufferable know it all you came across as." George sneered. "I should thank you for the reminder." He took something from inside his cloak. "Do you know what this is miss know it all?" George asked.

"Its shredded skin of boomslang." All of a sudden Hailee got it. "You slimy git I so hoped I would be the one to face you. How dare you double-cross Dumbledore!" Before Hailee could raise her hands, George had put the shredded skin of boomslang into his mount and started to chew. Slowly his form melted and his hair turned from red to greasy black. As he was turning, Hailee threw the leg locker curse on him. Then she put a silencing charm on him and she waited. She stroked Ginny's hair and whispered to her about all of them looking and Harry being so worried. She didn't mention that now George seemed to be missing.

If looks could kill Snape would have sent her to her grave. She knew that he couldn't believe that she had gotten the better of him. Dumbledore and Remus finally charged in the door. Dumbledore gasped when he saw Snape laying there bound.

"Severus, how disappointed I am. But I give you the credit you did put one over on this old fool." He picked up the washbasin next to Ginny's bed and said, "Portus" He told Hailee to bring Snape by hanging on to him tightly and he and Remus would get Ginny. They needed to be extra careful because when they landed she would not be able to catch herself and they didn't know what damage had been done to her.

Hailee felt a jerk around her waist. She didn't take any measures to stop Snape from smacking hard onto the cold marble floor. "Why are we at Hogwarts?" Hailee asked.

"Madame Pomfrey will be able to tend to Ginny. Besides, I think it is safer if we start a new headquarters. At least for now, just in case our beloved Severus has found away around the Fidelus Charm. Plus I want to have a place to find out what he has done." Dumbledore dictated.

"Professor He came into the room as George. I captured two of them in a waiting room back at the hospital. I thought it was Snape, and some Bella, at least that is what the imposter called her." Hailee blurted out.

"Hold on Miss Potter. We will deal with all of this in a few minutes, but first, this young lady needs medical attention. Bring Severus with you. I have sent Fawkes to get the Weasleys and Harry. Moreover, I need to check on the Grangers and Charlie. We are using the hospital wing for all of our causalities. Ron is there now with Charlie." Dumbledore took Ginny with Remus's help and they headed off.

"You dirty bastard! Where is he? You know I can do worse than an illegal curse and have you crying like a little girl. I can be the dark witch that the Cains wanted me to be I remember all of the old tricks. Would you like to see one? AMPUTO!" Hailee screamed. The pain spread across Snape's face. This spell made the recipient feel as if one of their limbs was being torn from their body. "Like that one you, ass." She mumbled and said "EXIMO., Let's see what else can I come up with. Or are you ready to tell me what you did with George?" Snape sneered.

"Alright I am sure I have something up my sleeve, I believe this next one might take your arm off. On the other hand, I can take a page out of your book, yes; I think that might be perfect. SERPENSORTIA, A large black as midnight snake erupted for Hailee's hands. It coiled itself, spread out its hood and prepared to attack. It struck out at Snape but did not hit him. From behind, her Hailee heard a hissing sound. The snake recoiled and then she heard, "EVANESCO." The snake disappeared. Hailee whipped around to come face to face with her brother.

"Hailee no we will find George without his help. Some of the Order members have gone back and gotten the two you trapped in the hospital. They have been locked up in the dungeon. Where this git is heading now. "Remus appeared. He looked quizzically at the twins. Harry nodded and Remus moved in on Snape Floating him towards the dungeons. Hailee collapsed into her brother's arms and sobbed. Now, where was George Hailee thought? Then it hit her she had to make sure the other two got the shredded skin of boomslang. That might answer her questions. She knew it just had to.
