Chapter Four
Remus led Tonks to the other side of the pond, where they stood staring their reflections in the water.
"Remus? What are we doing here?" she asked him. He said nothing, but picked up smooth stone and handed it to her.
"Skip it," he told her.
"Remus, I haven't done this since I was a child, what's the..."
"Just do it." So she did. She curled her fingers as her father had once showed her, drew her arm back, and let it fly across the water.
"There, you happy now?" she asked, turning to Remus, but he was running towards the bridge.
"Come on Tonks! Run!" he yelled. She ran after him as fast as she could. She surprised herself at how fast she had gotten since she was little, and caught up with him very quickly. They panted as they climbed up the bridge and looked down. The last ripples dissolved and the pond became as smooth as glass once more.
"We did it," Tonks whispered, "we really, really did it."
"I'm sure your father would be proud," Remus said as he put his arm around her waist pulling her towards him.
"Thank you," she told him.
"For what?"
"Everything..." she sighed, and they apparated back to number 12 Grimmauld Place.
*Two days later*
Tonks was thankful that everyone had left her alone for the past couple days. She really needed the peace and quiet. Mad-Eye told them that the Order had held its meetings somewhere else, and had figured out what to do with Kreacher.
"We killed him...Well actually, I did," he said during breakfast, taking a drink from his flask. "It wasn't pretty. The little devil was on his knees begging not to be killed, but I didn't have a choice. He was just to dangerous. We all knew that."
"What did you do with his body?" Tonks asked.
"Ah, we cremated it. Spread the ashes in a river not to far from here." Remus and Tonk nodded in understanding.
"After that was out of the way, everyone wanted to know about you actually," he said.
"Figures," she mumbled.
"Well...?" Moody asked.
"Well what?" Tonks snapped.
"What are you gonna do?!" he exclaimed.
"What do you all expect me to do?!" she shouted.
"Well no one really expects you to keep the baby," he answered, shrugging his shoulders, "they all thought you were just over reactin' and all."
"Remus? What do you think?" she asked him.
"Tonks, no matter what you decide, I'm sure it'll be the right decision." he said.
"I'm keeping the baby." she said to both of them.
"We all know that you loved Sirius, Tonks. But is it really worth it?! Are you really going to expect yourself to handle a baby in the middle of a war?" Mad-eye asked, "You can't just quit, we need your help! But what if you get killed? It wouldn't do you or the baby any good!"
"I DON'T KNOW MOODY!! I JUST DON'T KNOW!!!"
"Excuse me, but I think I might have a solution." interrupted an old voice from in the other room. It was Dumbledore. He walked in, and helped himself
"Albus what did you have in mind?" Remus asked.
"Well, I just so happen to come across a potion in a book I was reading to pass the time, called "Prolonging Life". Now it's not what you think. It does not make the drinker live longer, or make them immortal. It is for people, like Tonks, who are pregnant, but are not ready to have the child, for one reason or another." he said.
"So what does it do?" Tonks asked with interest.
"It will prolong the child birth process. Slowing it down until the time is right." he answered.
"But when will the time be right?" Remus asked.
"The answer to that, is exactly why I suggested this in the first place. The right time varies with every person. The potion adjusts to the drinker, and when the person themselves is completely sure and ready to have the child, the potion wears off, and the person goes through the child birth process as usual. But if you want to do this Tonks, it must be soon, before the baby develops even more."
"I...I...Yes. I'll do it." she said confidently.
"All right...I informed Severus as soon as I discovered it, and is working on it at this very moment. It will be done in one in a half weeks."
"How did you know Tonks would say yes?" Moody asked.
"I didn't, but in case she did, I wanted the potion to get done as quickly as possible." he answered.
"In the mean time, what are we supposed to do? According to our spies, Voldemort is planning on a full out attack, of course we all knew this. He has Giants, Dementors, trolls, plus all of his followers! There is no way that we can be prepared in time!" Remus exclaimed.
"That is where you're wrong...There is a way in which we can be prepared to fight. We have an army as well Remus, have you forgotten? There are good things in this world, along with the bad. What do you think I have been doing for the past 6 years?" he asked them, with a grin on his face.
"I'm afraid I don't understand," Remus said.
"I believe it is time to unleash Dumbledores Army, my friends."
