Chapter 13: Wormtail's Threat
Hermione and Ron looked at Harry. They did not know what they could say to comfort him.
"It's all my fault," Harry said, "I should have checked the map more often."
"Harry, it's not your fault," said Hermione, "you can't watch the map every second."
"Hermione is right," said Ron.
"Now what do we do?" asked Harry.
"I would suggest telling Dumbledore," said Hermione, "If anybody would be able to help it would be him."
Harry got up from the bed and started to walk towards the door. He only walked a couple of steps before he fell to the floor.
"Harry!" screamed Hermione, "Are you all right?"
"Yes," said Harry, "I tripped over something."
"But there is nothing there," said Ron.
Harry felt the floor. Then with a smile he grabbed something and lifted it up. It was an invisibility cloak. Underneath it was Katelyn. She was in a full body bind.
"Katelyn!" exclaimed Harry.
Hermione removed the spell, and Katelyn sat up. "It feels good to be able to move again," she said.
"We were so worried about you," said Harry, "Wormtail didn't hurt you, did he?"
"No," said Katelyn. Ron and Hermione helped the two of them off of the floor.
"Come on," said Hermione, "It is time we get back to Hogwarts and tell everyone that you have been found. We were all worried about you."
As they left the Shrieking Shack Harry noticed that Katelyn was limping. "You did get hurt," said Harry.
"Well, yeah," said Katelyn, "but Wormtail didn't do it."
"Well, what happened?" asked Harry.
"You tripped over my leg," said Katelyn.
"Oh," said Harry turning a little red, "I'm sorry."
"It doesn't hurt that bad," said Katelyn.
They left the tunnel under the Whomping Willow, and headed up to the castle. As they entered the front doors, they were greeted by Mary, James, and Lily.
"Katelyn!" exclaimed Mary, running up and giving her daughter a hug, "What happened?"
"Wormtail kidnapped me and kept me in the Shrieking Shack," said Katelyn.
"And he hurt your leg?" asked James.
Once again Harry turned red. Katelyn smiled at him and answered, "No, that was Harry's fault."
"I didn't mean to," said Harry, "I tripped over her leg when she was under an invisibility cloak."
"Well, at least you're safe," said Lily, "We need to tell Dumbledore that you're safe now."
"Umm," said Katelyn, "Wormtail said something when we were in the Shrieking Shack."
"What?" asked Mary.
"He said that if you catch him and send him to Azkaban that he will tell everyone about James, and Dad being illegal animangi."
"Don't worry about that," said James looking a little unsure.
"Yeah, don't worry about that," said Mary sounding a little more sure of herself, "I know how to fix that." James gave her a confused look, but she just smiled at him.
"Oh no," said Harry, "I forgot about Sirius!"
"What?" said Katelyn.
Harry had already ran off to the Gryffindor tower. Katelyn, Ron, and Hermione followed him.
"Don't worry about Dumbledore," called James after them, "We will tell him."
When Harry reached the tower, he ran up to his dormitory and grabbed the mirror. Then he ran back to the common's room where Hermione, Ron, and Katelyn were waiting for him. Other than the three of them the room was empty.
"Sirius Black," said Harry. The mirror faded into a picture of a cell in Azkaban, and a very worried looking Sirius.
"Harry! Are you all right?" asked Sirius.
"Perfectly fine," said Harry handing the mirror to Katelyn.
"Dad!" she exclaimed.
"Katelyn! You're back!" said Sirius.
"Yeah," said Katleyn, "Harry spotted Wormtail on the map and followed him."
"I was so worried," said Sirius, "You don't know how hard it is to sit here not being able to help."
"Unfortunately," Harry said, "We were not quick enough to catch Wormtail."
Sirius looked a little disappointed. "Don't worry about him," he said, "The adults will catch him."
"In case you have not noticed," said Harry, "I am an adult."
"I meant the teachers and your parent," Sirius said with a smile, "You are still in school. It is getting late. You need to go to bed now."
"All right," yawned Katelyn, "I am tired. It's been nice seeing you again."
"You too," said Sirius, "Bye." The mirror faded back into a reflection of the Gryffindor commons room. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Thank you for your reviews. Keep reviewing. I love hearing from you. Thanks to:
