I hope you enjoy :)

I apparate back to the spot we just left as silently as i did the first time, i look to see that the followers haven't moved much, two of them seem to be arguing over who gets to finish off demi.

These idiots were probably ordered to get the invisibility cloak the potters have that they pass down through the generations thanks to Ignotus, can't wait to tell them after i get back home. Grindelwald has an obsession with the deathly hallows but these guys assume he is talking about any normal one, which means he keeps his followers in the dark about some of his specific goals and only keeps them informed on the overall goal of enslavement of muggles and getting rid of the statute of secrecy.

Not that i'm surprised.

The witch arguing with the wizard says, "you are shity with casting spells of any kind, i am much better, you will just fuck it up!"

He replies offended, "i am not, besides gray said it has to be clean, you will just get blood everywhere."

She scoffs, "like you can do any better."

The bored looking wizard just sighs, "gray, choose already so they can shut up."

The aforementioned gray looks just as annoyed, "shut it you two, Laronda will do it" that must be the silent witch to the side.

I hiss quietly to akasha, 'go around and behind them, don't come out until spells start flying, bite as many as you can' he hisses back an affirmation and slides down my body, moving around to the other side of the clearing as fast as he can, when he is about halfway there and before Laronda can even lift her wand i step out from behind my tree, wand out and i say in a sharp tone, "what do you think you are doing here?"

My appearance surprises them so much all of their wands jerk in their hands before they are all pointed in my direction, though from their posture i can see that they don't see me as much of a threat, probably because i still look somewhat young and am by myself at the moment.

This doesn't matter to me though and them underestimating me will almost guarantee my win, and they also have to consentrate to not loose sight of demi, this fight is in my favor.

Gray is the one to respond, "what does us being here matter?"

I scoff inwardly, idiot all of them, "you are much to close to my property and planning to harm a magical creature for product that you probably don't have a licence for, now leave before i take action against you as is authorized by my employment to the department of regulation and control of magical creatures."

At this they turn wary for a second but they obviously aren't really worried because their posture doesn't change much.

Gray says, "no, we have business to attend to, if you wish to stop us we will retaliate" which is polite for go away or die, oh well, i was never good at following instructions or warnings when it came to protecting loved ones and demi befriended one of my closest.

At that moment akasha got into position and i say, "thats too bad" right before i cast the first spell their way, which happend to be a expulso aimed at the debris right infront of Laronda, then again infront of the other witch, them being closest, this causes the ground around them to explode, hopefully injuring their feet, from the answering scream and grunt i would say it worked.

While they are distracted i hit them both with an incarcerus to tie them up, durring the excitement the wizards didn't move much, giving me a chance to cast a stupefy on the wizard closest who happend to be the one arguing with the witch earlier, he is hit and drops to the ground, too shocked to block or dodge.

By now the remaining two have snapped out of their shock and both cast a immobulus simultaneously, by now akasha is almost upon them so i shout, "protego totalum!" My other spells were silent so this was for effect and to distract from akasha who had just raised up to bite gray.

To distract the last wizard further by casting a reducto at him which be flicks towards a tree using protego. But by now it's too late and he has already been bitten.

Although akasha'a venom is not deadly, the paralysis is still fast acting so the last wizard drops in seconds, akasha then goes around and bites the remaining three for good measure, and then wines himself back around me, i can feel his stress but i have to wait to comfort him later.

I walk over to demi and reach out my arm, offering him my unoccupied left shoulder, "lets get you back to the house where you can see tom" at this he perks up and climbs onto my back right before i hear multiple pops indicating that the aurors have finally arrived, they took much longer than they should have, i'll have to look into that later.

I turn around to see 4 aurors wands at the ready, i sigh, "better late then never."

One of them has the decency to look sheepish while another says, "sorry we were at another scene and there aren't enough aurors on call."

I'll definitely have to look into that later, "thats fine, they aren't dead, my familiar's venom only paralyzes, they should be fine after it wears off."

The two wizards who have not spoken walk forward towards the five on the ground, they grab ahold of them and apparate them back to what i assume is the holding area and interrogation rooms.

The remaining witch and wizards turn to me and the wizard says, "would you be able to answer some questions?"

I nod, "sure" i walk over and hold out my hands, "i'll apparate us to the house so you can get passed the wards, then i will apparate to my son and retrieve him from a friend."

They grab my hands and i apparate us to the front of the house, i then bend down so that demi can hop off of my shoulder once he is down i hiss to akasha, 'protect demi until we get back' i then say to demi, "be back soon along with tom" akasha uncoils from me to lay next to demi.

I look the the two aurors, "i'll be just a moment" i then apparate to the back room of hog's head.

As soon as i appear tom is attached to my waist mumbling questions into my side, i giggle, "wait to ask me once we get back home, the aurors are there waiting for answers as well."

He nods but stays attached so i reach down and pick him up into the usual position of him resting on my hip with additional strength in his hold around my neck and shoulders. Since nagini is still coiled around him i simply walk out to the bar to inform Aberforth that we are leaving.

I find him tending the bar that is about as empty as when i left, i haven't been gone very long after all, "Aberforth, everything is taken care of we are heading back now."

He looks over to me, giving me a once over, checking for injuries, he nods, "alright" he reaches behind the bar and pulls out containers of food to go, "here is some stew for lunch, on the house, wouldn't want young tom to go hungry."

I smile, "of course thank you Aberforth, i'll remind myself to bake you something as a proper thank you."

He grunts and goes back to tending the bar, i just keep smiling, wouldn't want eveyone to know how much of a softy he is.

I apparate away with a pop back to the spot i left them last, and they haven't moved much.

As soon as i appear i set down tom and nagini uncoils since we are now home.

Tom notices demi around the same time demi notices him, tom reaches out his arm and demi climbs onto his back, content to ride piggyback for now, and not wanting to let me go tom comes back to my side and grabs ahold of my arm this time.

I wave to the aurors, "lets get inside" we make our way inside with nagini and akasha following along.

I set the food down on the kitchen table for later and then lead the way to the living room where Salazar and the Peverell brothers are waiting for us in their frames. I nod to them and tom and i sit down on the couch while the aurors summon themselves some chairs.

The witch speaks first, "i am auror Norma Star, and this is my partner auror Kent North, can you tell us everything from start to finish?"

I start, "after breakfast tom went out to explore the forest while i took care of the plants in the greenhouse and brewed some potions in my lab, after around 2 hours had passed i was thinking about making lunch and bringing it to him when i felt the burn on my arm signaling that tom was in danger and needed help."

Auror North interrupts at my pause in speech, "what are you referring to when you say burn and how could you tell he was in danger?"

I hold out my forearm, showing him my tattoo, "tom has one of a fox on his forearm, when magic is put into the tattoo it activates and sends a distress signal to my tattoo making it burn, the active connection then allows me to apparate to him no matter what anti-apparition wards are in place, even if it was hogwarts."

They both looked stunned and skeptical that my tattoo can do all that but North nods, "that does explain it, please continue."

I look over at tom, "can you explain what happend before i got there?"

He nods and burrows into my side as the only sign that he is still shaken, he still looks calm as ever from the outside, "after walking through the forest for awhile and spotting a few magical creatures i met demi, he and i played for a little bit but eventually our chasing and running around caused us to go to far and before nagini and akasha could warn me we had gone outside of the wards, we heard footsteps coming towards us and the wards were too far to try and run back, demi grabbed me and hid me behind one of the trees, before going into the clearing and turning invisible, but they found him eventually because he made a noise on purpose so that they were too distracted to notice me get away, but i was not going to let them kill demi, so i called mia, she always knows whag to do."

It was so sad and scary for him, no 8 year old needs to see something like that, the aurors seem to agree because they didn't press him, i continue from there, "after taking tom to our friend i apparate back, i listened to them talk for a minute and discovered one of the women, the blonde i believe, her name was Laronda, and one of the men, with dark hair, was named gray and they seemed to know the most out of the group of them, apparently Grindelwald ordered them to get him an invisibility cloak from what i understood of the conversation."

They ponder this for a minute and signal for me to continue, "i have akasha, my familiar, get into position behind them while i buy him time by confronting them, they underestimated me so i was relatively easy for me to take down the closest three, i then kept the last two busy until akasha could bite them, which he then did, right after that you arrived."

North gets that sheepish look again, "yes, i wish we had been faster" then he gets a look of realization, "are you injured? I can't believe We didn't ask you earlier."

Star gets the same look, "i'm so sorry i guess we are out of sorts today, we're not usually like this."

I give them a small smile, "you don't have to worry, it would take a whole lot more than them to injure me, they weren't very skilled." That being said they are probably out of sorts as they say because of how understaffed the aurors are, they're probably spreading themselves too thin, "but since that is all we can tell you, you should get back to the office to fill out the reports so that you can get some good sleep" i snap my fingers, "i have just the thing" i summon two of the larger corked bottles of sleeping draught, "it's sleeping draught, only take a sip when needed, this size is supposed to last you more than two weeks if used everyday" i hand them each a bottle.

They look at their bottles in wonder, Star says, "i was actually planning on buying some of this later, we wouldn't want to take something so expensive from you."

I wave my hand at them so she doesn't continue, "i brew my own potions, i work in the department of regulation and control of magical creatures, but i was always good at potions making which comes in handy for brewing wolfsbane and other potions that magical creatures might need like dragon tonic" i shrug, "if i didn't like magical creatures i would have been a potions master."

They nod in acceptance but North is contemplating something, "how about we accept these now but in the future if the auror department needs any potions we could send you requests and pay you for them, it is much less of a hassle to do that than go through an apothecary that takes longer" Star seems to agree also.

That would be nice, not just the getting payed part, my potions being needed has always been a nice feeling, thats why being able to work on the wolfsbane is nice, i nod, "that sounds good, and don't be afraid to ask for difficult potions such as draught of living death or veritaserum."

They nod and Star says, "we'll keep that in mind, expect an owl from us soon, about either the potions or the 5 from earlier."

I nod, "of course, till then."

With that they stand and vanish their chairs before walking out of the door.

Once they are gone i deflate with sigh and reach over to tom to pull him to me, i sit him on my lap with nagini and akasha draped over us, "i'm glad you made a friend but you have to remember to be careful, this is why i put wards up, there will always be a dark wizard or two and you have to insure your safety and peace of mind so when you and demi are out in the forest please don't go past the wards."

Since demi is still attached to tom he is able to reach out and pat my head at the same time tom says, "i promise."

I wonder how much this will effect him, his first friend almost died after all, i look over to the portraits and Salazar gives a reassuring nod, while the Peverell brothers give a variety of smiles and grunts.

I nod and stand with tom still in my arms, "alright, we are going to eat lunch that Aberforth was a dear to give us and then i will finally get to show you the tale of 3 brothers."

As i sit us down in the kitchen Salazar and the Peverell brothers move to their kitchen frames and Antioch proclaims, "the story about us of course! And we will be here to make the necessary corrections in the story, because some of the parts are just flat out lies."

Ignotus just chuckles, "sure brother, whatever you need to tell yourself."

"Well mine was slightly different but they get most of it right" Cadmus adds in.

Tom giggles at their antics while we eat and i smile, he'll be just fine, he has all of us here for him after all.
