Harry and Fred eventually came up for air, but stayed lying in one another's arms on Harry's bed. Fred chuckled slightly and then said, "Well, I guess this means you like me."

Harry smirked and said, "No, I just thought you'd be a good snog."

Fred grinned and replied, "I rather think I was quite good."

Harry nodded thoughtfully before saying, "I suppose you were."

Fred looked, for the first time Harry had ever seen, quite serious as he asked, "Is this the start of something serious, or some kind of fling?"

Harry bit his lip slightly and replied with a question, "Do you want whatever this is between us to be serious?"

Seeing the rather disbelieving look on Fred's face, Harry went on to say, "It's not that I don't want it to be, but you'll be putting yourself in a lot of danger. Especially if Voldemort were to find out, he would find a way to capture you and use you against me, and you know I wouldn't be able to leave you in his grasp."

Fred frowned and kissed Harry gently before saying, "Let him try if he wants, I'm not going to let him stop us from having a chance to be with one another. Besides, if you let him dictate what you can and can't do in your life, you've let him win."

Harry frowned briefly and then smiled, nodding in agreement before he said, "Alright, but do we keep this somewhat secret? Or what??"

Fred laughed and replied simply, "A secret? In Hogwarts? Are you insane Harry? The entire Wizarding World will know in a week if we try to keep it a secret."

Harry chuckled and said; "I keep forgetting that about Hogwarts."

Fred smiled at Harry, who grinned back. A knock came at the door, and the two quickly sat up and sprang apart. They were almost fast enough, as Remus walked in, chuckling slightly at their blushed faces. Harry and Fred flushed more, and Remus said, "Sirius and I have to run over to Hogwarts for a little bit. There are emergency portkeys in our bedroom, on Sirius's bedside table. Just say 'Hogwarts' and they'll activate."

Harry nodded and asked, "What are you going to Hogwarts about?"

Remus frowned and answered carefully, "Well, you knew they weren't going to just let the Dursley family back out into the public, right?"

Harry nodded and Remus continued, "Well, Dudley's fate was already decided, he's in a center to help Juvenile Delinquents. From what I understand it's basically one of those Muggle, boot camps or army training or something like that. Vernon and Petunia however, go to court, our court of course."

Fred snickered slightly next to Harry and Harry raised an eyebrow at him. Fred smiled slightly and then explained, "They'll be lucky to escape a Dementors Kiss. Most Wizarding Families only have one Heir, to prevent the Heirs from getting jealous of one another and killing one another - so child abuse of any shape or form is NOT tolerated within the Pureblood families. If the Dursleys want a chance at escaping this at all, considering who they've abused, they had best pray for Muggle-born Wizards and Witches to be in charge - and Fudge wouldn't allow them that luxury. Not if he wanted to keep his office."

Remus nodded in agreement, and Harry's eyes widened slightly, he hadn't realized any of that. Of course he'd also given up on trying to get help from outsiders of his family. They would always explain away his bruises, cuts and absences from school - got into a fight with his cousin - active imagination - you know boys after all, always fighting with one another and what not.

They hadn't really physically abused him - just a slap on the face, hand or bottom for things he'd done wrong. However, when he'd accidentally done magic as a child, it was locked up in the cupboard until they saw fit without food. He almost felt sorry for them - and he didn't wish them any harm despite the way they'd treated him.

Remus pulled him out of his thoughts by saying, "Sirius and I will be back soon, and we're locking the Floo gate, and make sure to be careful alright?"

Both boys nodded, mostly to show they understood without telling him they were old enough to handle themselves for a few hours. Remus smiled and left, calling out a goodbye as he left. Fred and Harry both called after him, "Bye Moony!"

The two boys spent the next few hours talking about various things, including Quidditch, schoolwork and other such things. It had been nearly three hours, when Harry's scar started to tingle, and before Harry could even warn Fred, his scar suddenly blazed in pain, and his vision shifted to the surroundings with Voldemort and the Death Eaters.

**In Vision**

Harry stood in a small home, looking around he noticed that there were only three Death Eaters, but Voldemort himself was present. Harry frowned; this didn't look like a normal Voldemort torturing session. In front of Voldemort and the Death Eaters, was a young couple, and a small child who looked no older than two or three years old.

The young man was trying desperately to shield his wife and child from Voldemort and the Death Eaters that were present; his wand was in one of the Death Eater's hands. Voldemort sneered at him, "So, Aldus Bode, you refuse to join me do you?"

Aldus snarled slightly at him before responding, "I'll die before I join the likes of you."

Voldemort chuckled slightly and raised his wand before saying, "As you wish - Avada Kedavra!"

The young man screamed once, and Harry could see the man's soul leave his body. The young woman and the child, whom Harry could now see was a girl, where both crying. The man looked surprised and then exclaimed, "Harry Potter! What are you doing here? Why aren't you helping my wife and child?"

Harry frowned and then asked, "You can see me? No one's been able to before. I'm not actually here, I didn't think there was anything I could do for them."

Aldus looked at him and demanded, "Are you a Death Eater?"

Harry chuckled and said, "I've told Voldemort several times what he could do with his offer - shove it up his ass as far as I'm concerned. No one's ever seen me before though - I'll try to help, but I don't know what I can do."

Aldus nodded and asked, "Please, anything, Emily and Morgan are all I have."

Harry smiled sadly and turned back to see that Morgan was pleading much the way his mother had before her Death. Morgan was shielding Emily the best she could, pleading with Voldemort, "Please! Take me, don't hurt my child!"

Harry was enraged when he heard Voldemort chuckling, and decided to try something new. He walked over to the woman and child, before taking the child into his arms. Morgan started shrieking instantly, "What have you done to her! Where has my Emily gone? Don't you have any mercy at all!?"

Harry realized that the child was now in his arms, and that somehow shielded her from Voldemort's eyes. Harry smiled down at the little girl and whispered, "Hello Emily, should we get your Mum too?"

The little girl smiled back and nodded. Harry moved in front of the woman and adjusted Emily in his arms before pulling Morgan into them as well. The woman gasped and whispered, "Harry Potter!"

Harry smiled and said, "I don't know how long he won't be able to see you, No one's ever been able to see me before, and I've never been able to help them before - do you have a fireplace close by?"

Morgan nodded, and the two were interrupted by Voldemort screaming, "WHERE DID THEY GO!? FIND THEM! IT'S SOME SORT OF INVISIBILITY CLOAK! IF YOU CAN'T FIND THEM BURN THE HOUSE DOWN!"

Morgan smirked suddenly and said, "Oh if he thinks he can burn this house down, he's got another thing coming. I've placed so many charms on the walls and everything else, Emily likes to play with the fire."

Harry chuckled and said, "Lovely, we'll beat him at his own game then, ey? Now, where's the fireplace?"

Morgan just pulled him down the hall slightly, they noticed there weren't any Death Eaters in the room, but instead of taking chances they hurried to the floo powder jar, Morgan opened it and took a large handful before asking, "Where should we go?"

Harry frowned and then said, "Take the jar with you, call out someplace familiar to you, and then floo to 'The Burrow'. I'll alert Albus Dumbledore that you'll be with the Weasleys. Tell Molly that Fred and I sent you there, but we're both fine and still at Remus Lupin's house."

Morgan nodded, Harry shifted Emily so that Morgan was holding her and then said, "Are you ready?"

Morgan nodded and jumped out of Harry's arms, throwing the powder into the fireplace, jumped in it holding both the jar of the floo powder and Emily close before yelling out, "Diagon Alley!"

Harry chuckled, that was rather smart of her - to go somewhere public where they couldn't attack her and she could blend into the crowds before she used another fireplace to go to the Weasleys. Harry turned to see Lucius Malfoy and Voldemort glaring at the fireplace as they tried to figure out how they'd gotten away. Voldemort suddenly shouted, "WORMTAIL! MCNAIR! GET IN HERE!"

The last thing Harry saw before he slipped into unconsciousness was Voldemort blasting all three Death Eaters with a large dose of the Cruciatus Curse.

**End Vision**

Harry woke up to find Fred, Remus, Sirius, and Dumbledore staring at him intently, obviously waiting for him to wake up. Harry smiled, and then grinned before saying, "You'll never believe it! I can save people!"

The four men blinked before Albus asked, "Harry, what in the world are you talking about?"

Harry was still smiling before he said, "Well, Voldemort was attacking a young couple and their little girl - the Bode family, uh, Aldus, Morgan and little Emily. He killed Aldus, and the funny thing was that I saw his spirit leave his body. Aldus and I talked for a minute, before I realized if he could see me, then maybe I could help Morgan and Emily. Apparently if I hold the person, Voldemort and his Death Eaters can't see them. Morgan took Emily and flooed to Diagon Alley, I told her to floo to the burrow and that I would tell you where they were, so they could be safe."

Albus nodded, and Remus left the room to floo over to Molly and Arthur's house, and update them on the situation. Sirius and Fred looked uncomfortable, but Albus was smiling at his Great-Grandson with a slight twinkle in his eyes. Albus asked, "Do you think this is a one-time deal, or do you think this could be repeated?"

Harry bit his lip and said, "Well, I'll have to try it again is all. If I can't, than we'll know. I hope I can, it's nice to be able to stop him from harming someone."

Albus smiled and nodded and then his eyes lit up and he said, "I have a wonderful idea! Harry, you say they disappear from Voldemort's view?"

Harry nodded and Albus said, "If you see Wormtail in one of these attacks, see if you can't trap him somewhere in the house in rat form, get him caged up to an owl, or throw him in the fireplace to send him somewhere - the Ministry perhaps."

Sirius, rather alarmed at the prospect of his godson doing such a thing almost immediately said, "NO! It's too dangerous Albus! What if something happened to him?"

Albus sighed and said, "Harry can let go of Wormtail at any time, and he'll be safe from harm. Anyway, what you did was wise, but next time just tell whomever is attacked to go straight to Hogwarts, they can floo to Hogsmeade and Contact Madam Rosmerta, who will give them a portkey to Hogwarts. Or they can go to Diagon Alley, contact Tom at the Leaky Cauldron, and get a portkey to Hogwarts."

Harry nodded in understanding, and after a few more minutes - mainly giving Harry a potion to help with the pain he felt when the Killing Curse had been said by Voldemort and a sleeping potion - Albus and Sirius left the two boys alone. Harry was curled up, fast asleep in Fred's arms. Fred lay there, holding Harry, and made a silent vow to himself then and there, never to let the boy in his arms be harmed again - and Merlin help Voldemort when Fred got his hands on him, because no one else would get in his way.
