23. Leaving for battle:
Suddenly they heard two voices from far away,
"Sir, I found a secret illuminated exit. I think they went down there."
"Let's go. We have to get them."
"Our master will be pleased."
##~~ Damn them. Can't they stay away for a day? You two get out of here. I'll deal with them. Unfortunately everyone can get out of the tunnel. George, can you put a layer of ice on the ceiling after getting out?~~##
##~~Sure, but then you can't get out. What are you planning~~##
##~~Just do it. And put so much ice there that you're going to get soaked when you try to get out.~~##
##~~How are you getting out?~~##
##~~ Don't worry about me, Angel. Better get out of here.~~##
Fred kissed her. George turned to the ladder and tried to climb it. He hissed in pain and leaned against it.
##~~Fred? I can't climb that thing.~~##
Fred turned to them,
##~~What now? Any ideas Angel?~~##
##~~You take care of this vermin and I'll levitate him out. I'm not an Ancient Air Elemental for nothing.~~##
Fred: ##~~Okay. Let the show begin~~##
Suddenly the fire on the ceiling extinguished. They heard roars of fury from down the tunnel. Fred conjured up a ball of fire in his hands and guided it up the tunnel towards the Death Eaters. Then he build a few walls of fire to hold them of.
In the meantime, George and Angelina are standing in the forest next to the oak tree. George finished the layer of ice and he leaned onto the tree to get some rest , breathing hard.
"I swear when this crap is over I'm going to sleep for two days."
∑∑Aira, can you give us some energy?∑∑
∑∑Of course mistress∑∑
Aira started to sing and George and Angelina felt better and more awake.
Fred appeared suddenly next to them with a 'pop'. He staggered and Angelina and George immediately grapped him each at a arm to steady him.
##~~That took the cake. When I get back I'll be out for two days. ~~##
##~~Same here~~## said George and Angelina at the same time.
##~~ I shouldn't have apparated through that ward.~~##
Edan appeared in a ball of fire next to him and sat on Fred's shoulder and started to sing together with Aira.
∑∑Thank you, you two∑∑
∑∑No problem Master∑∑
"You okay now Fred?" asked a concerned Angelina.
"I'm fine now. Don't worry," he gave her a kiss on the forehead. "But we have to get away from here. That won't hold them up forever. We have to go there." said Fred pointing to the right. They started to walk in that direction after putting a few heating charms on themselves.
∑∑Edan? Did you scare them a bit?∑∑
∑∑Yes, Master Fred∑∑
∑∑Had fun?∑∑
∑∑Yes, Master Fred. One of them wet himself∑∑
The others had to grin at the imagine.
∑∑Good work, Edan.∑∑
Angelina petted him.
∑∑Thank you Mistress.∑∑
"How did you hold them up, Fred?" asked George.
"I put some firewalls down the tunnel. They should have some trouble to extinguish them."
"Why should George put the ice layer there?"
"If you are standing in front of a ice wall, what would you do, Angel?"
"Melt it down. Why?"
"Exactly. And what if the ice wall is above you?"
"Ohhhh, Fred you're evil. But they have earned it. These bloody bastards."
"Wait till Hogwarts. Then these bastards will learn the true meaning of me being evil."
"Fred?" asked George "Is this the road we're looking for?"
Fred looked up. "Yep. We're here." Angelina suddenly stopped. Fred looked at her, "Angel?"
"We should hurry up. The Death Eaters are out of the tunnel."
"Okay then. We're going to that lay-by. And from there we'll go by car."

Hogwarts: Headmaster's office
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The leaders of the battle are standing around the table again, looking at an enlarged Marauders Map.
"Okay, time for a check." asked Alicia looking around the table. "Albus?"
"The students are in their respective common rooms. I put anti Dark Mark spells on the entrances. No marked Death Eaters can go inside."
"Good. Lee?"
"The Unspeakable are all positioned. Well all except one." answered Lee throwing a glance at Hermione.
Alicia nodded, "Okay. Katie?"
"Madame Pompfey has the healers. They are prepared for nearly everything."
Alicia nodded, "What about the forest?"
"You won't like that one. There are not as many as we thought, but they are prepared. I think they want to test our defences. If we show them everything we got, we have nothing to surprise them with later on. We're going to loose all our advantages. With that knowledge…" Katie shook her head "…we are as good as doomed."
"Then we aren't putting all our forces in the battle. We're going to cut that short. Did anyone have a problem while performing their tasks?" Hermione opened her mouth to say something, when Alicia added "except Hermione of course? No? Okay. Katie? How far are they away?"
"'bout 7 Miles. The anti-Apparation were expended to 10 Miles last summer. Except to the east. There they just go to Hogsmeade. I think they'll be here in 1 to 2 hours."
"Sirius? You're ready for a trip?"
"Yes. Where should I go?"
"Take this letter to Jeffrey McGee. He's Bill's colleague. You should find him South of Port Safaga. He should be in CSoWW (Cheops School of Witchcraft and Wizardry). As far as I know he's lecturing about mythical, ancient and rare magical creatures. He's an order member. You might know him."
"Isn't that that great lanky fellow from the middle of nowhere in Oklahoma?"
"Yep. That's him."
"The same Jeffrey McGee, who tried to hit on hit on Neville's girlfriend?" asked Katie. Alicia nodded.
"The one Neville nearly hexed to oblivation, if Harry, Ron and Fred hadn't calmed him?" asked Lee.
Ron looked up, "The one, who made Fred spend three days in the hospital wing because he stood between them after calming Neville down and McGee got the glorious idea to hex Neville and to disappear after that because he was afraid of Angie?"
"Yep. That one. We need him to get some help in the US. Now Sirius, take that letter and go." Sirius put the letter in his pocket opened the door and sprinted out of the castle as Padfoot.
"Angie is gonna kill him." muttered Lee. Ron nodded in agreement. Then they looked at each other, grinned and said at the same time, "That'll be fun to watch!"
"Ron, do you have a defence plan?"
"Yes, everyone is positioned. Except us. I think we should head for the ramparts, when the DE's are getting here."
"Are we all fighting from the ramparts?"
"All except a group consisting of 25 people at the front doors."
"Okay, Ron. I'm going to the front doors."
"Harry, are you completely out of your mind?" screeched Hermione, "You are not getting out there!"
"Ms Granger, I think you lost the right to command people around and tell them what and what not to do, when you refused to do what you are told." barked Severus Snape.
"I have enough authority to…"
"And I don't bloody care" snapped Snape, "We have war. W-A-R. Not some shit like 'Noooo she is so mean. I don't like her. I don't care what she says I'm not doing it', or 'nooo I don't want to do it I could break a nail'. This isn't some childish fight to see who is the most stubborn. This is about the lives of innocent people, children. If everyone acts so childish like you, we can give up. Do you know what happens if a Death Eater, moves in front of Voldemort and tells him 'what you do is wrong, I don't care what you say I won't do it'? If the guy is lucky he'll get a quick death if not, I don't want to be him. And to be honest I thought you would be more matured than that." With that he stood up. "If you excuse me. I'm going to check on my students. Mostly first and second-years are here." and left the room with billowing robes.

"Fred, this car isn't very … very inconspicuous."
"Well, I don't know George. I think it's a good car. Looks new and fast."
"Fred, where did you get the idea to buy this car?"
"In a muggle movie. I like this colour better though"
"Ah I remember. The one with the crazy guys chasing aliens all over New York?"
"Right you are Angie."
"Yep, but I don't think it's the same version like the one in the movie. This one is a Mercedes E 320 (A/N: I have a picture somewhere) in brilliant silver."
"Not bad. But we should get a move on, before the Death Eaters get here." said George.
"Okay Angie, you still got my keys."
"Right." Angelina got the keys out of her pocket and gave them to Fred.
They got into the car and drove of.
