Harry poked around the vault and turned to the goblins that were watching them carefully. Ron was arguing silently with one of them. "So, can you tell us what was stolen?" he asked. The goblin looked up at him with a serious expression. Harry knew how they were, so he really didn't expect much.
"They stole nothing. Obviously what ever they were looking for was already gone." Answered the goblin. Harry turned to his red head best friend who chose to insult one of the goblins harshly.
"Oy, Ron! We don't have time for that. Who's vault is this?" he asked. Ron scowled and crossed his arms.
"I wish I knew." He answered and went up to Harry. "These little bastards are as stubborn as they come." He whispered. Harry looked around a bit, hoping none of them had heard.
"Well I doubt they're going to tell us any more information than they already have." Said Dean.
"Hey, where's Malfoy?" asked Seamus suddenly. The men began looking around. Ron sighed.
"Leave it to him to disappear at the wrong time." He said. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Matt leaned out his window in curiosity. Mike looked up from his magazine and joined him, making room. He looked up at the sky as it rained and sighed. "What are you looking for?" he asked. Matt just shrugged and propped his chin on his hand, staring out into the distance.
"I saw Alex talking to someone and they went walking and John won't be home for a while. We're basically home alone."
"So. Its not lie anything is going to happen to us." Said Mike.
"Everyone around here is at work." Said Matt and then pointed ahead. "And they all usual get home around the same time. before the sunsets, right?" Mike looked in the direction his brother was pointing.
"Matt, the sun doesn't set in that direction." He informed. Matt sat quietly for a second.
"Alex!" he called, but there was no answer. Both the boys quickly jumped out the bed and grabbed their cloaks and shoes.
"Where are we going to go?" asked Mike as they ran down the stairs. "Mum is going to have heart attack if she doesn't find us."
"Believe me, she'll be happy to know we just escaped the death eaters." Said Matt. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Janet was closing up when the door opened. She looked up and two red heads came in. She instantly recognized them as John's younger brothers. "Matthew! Michael!" she announced and ran over to them. "You're soaking wet." She said.
"There were death eaters coming and we couldn't find Alex." Said Mike with chattering teeth. Janet sighed and picked them both up. She had gotten use to carrying heavy things by now, and carried the boys up to her room.
"Your sister is probably looking all over for you." Said Janet. Matt sat shivering like mad as she worked on getting Mike dry. Then she made them both sit on her bed as she looked for them so dry clothes. The room door opened and her brother Tim stepped in.
"What happened to you two?" he asked once he saw the twins.
"Don't ask questions, Tim. Just go get mum and tell her to owl the Weasleys." *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Hermione shoved through the crowd of people that were gathering in the street where she lived. Many houses looked as if they had been attacked. "What's going on?" she asked. The old witch that lived across from her was the first to speak up.
"Death eaters attacked." She informed. "They were looking for someone and stopped once they got through with your house. They all were gone by time the aurors got here." She said. Hermione shoved through the crowd and found Alex sitting on the couch in tears.
"Alex..." The redhead girl looked up and jumped up, hugging her mother tightly. "Where are the twins?"
"I don't know. When I tried to find them, they were missing. there wasn't even a note."
"Alex!" called a voice and Hermione looked up. Patrick had entered the house and took a step back when he saw Hermione. "Mrs. Weasley."
"GET OUT OF MY WAY!" Hermione looked and saw Ron shoving through the reporters and other aurors that were around. He obviously hadn't noticed his wife and daughter. He grabbed one auror by the front of his robes.
"Why the hell wasn't I informed that death eaters were attacking around here?" he asked.
"Ron. relax." Harry tried, but the redhead ignored him. He tightened his grip until Hermione spoke up.
"Ron. let him go." He instantly dropped the boy and turned to his wife and daughter.
"'Mione. where are the twins?" At that moment, Alex began to cry even harder than before and Ron looked as if he was going to faint himself. The crowd began to split suddenly.
"Special delivery for Mr. Ronald Weasley. Hermione recognized that voice as Fred Weasley's. Ron's older twin brothers pushed through the crowd, both holding someone in their arms.
"We got an owl from the Longbottoms that concern you two." Said George and pulled back the cloak on the person he was holding.
"Matthew!" announced Alex, shoving past everyone and grabbing her little brother out of her uncle's arms. Fred pulled back the cloak in his arms and Mike was sleeping in his arms. Hermione grabbed him, causing the boy to wake up.
"Hey mum. you won't believe it but." Hermione placed a finger on his lips to silence him.
"It's alright, love. I'm not upset." She said. She pushed his damp hair out of his face and smiled a bit. Then she sat down and pulled Matt into her arms as the aurors took control of the rest of the situation.
"We'll deal with the reporters." Said Fred. Ron took a deep breath and smiled gratefully at his older brothers.
"Thanks you two." He said. They grinned and George ruffled his hair.
"We're your older brothers, Ronnikins. Its our duty to be there for you."
