Chapter 19 Continuing

The three of them arrived at the edge of Malfoy Manor. Quickly Tonks gave the plan. Each one agreed to take a side of the house to close in. The Manor was known to have some alarm systems and traps. Remus had agreed to guard the outside he would let Harry take the revenge. Remus also had more experience holding antiapparation charms around houses.

Malfoy Manor looked like an old fashioned haunted house. Which probably kept some of the Muggles away. Harry had done a concealment charm to himself.

Harry had his wand carefully angled moving towards the house. He would keep an eye for Malfoy. He would enter from the front. That would be the best way to handle this. Tonks would go around the back.

For Harry all he could think about was how personnel this was to him. Ginny was right. Loving Eric was a right for him. He would be seeking revenge against the ones who had hurt him and the rest of his family.

There was the sudden sound of a scream. Harry hurried towards the source to the backside of the house. Knowing full and well that it could be a trap.

Remus had heard the scream as well. He knew it couldn't have really been Tonks. She would never let out a scream like that. He moved himself to the rear.

Both Remus and Harry ran into each other. "Where's Tonks?" Harry asked.

"Not here." Remus said. "It's a trap. Move inside."

Remus temporary removed the guarding spell on the house.

Harry Disapperated and Apperated inside the parlor of the house. It was a foolish and unexpected move. But they had to go against procedure to take Malfoy by surprise.

What surprised Harry though was what he saw when he got into the parlor. Malfoy was sitting comfortably on the couch.

"Welcome to my home Potter."

"You're under arrest." Harry said with his wand on Malfoy.

"I suppose you found my two associates." He said checking his nails.

His calm demeanor made Harry uneasy.

"You can come peacefully or I will bind you." Harry said moving closer. He was trying to figure out if this all was not some kind of trap.

"I think you will say that I was not found."

Remus had moved to the other side of the door. He could see Harry talking with Malfoy. Remus knew that he must be trying to talk him down. Harry was smart about his Auror training.

"What do you mean?" Harry asked. He had already sensed two others in the room. They were hiding behind the tapestry. Slowly Harry opened his mind without losing his concentration. He would find out what Malfoy had in mind.

Harry concentrated on Malfoy's thoughts. He had Tonks being guarded behind the Tapestry. Nothing else was set. Malfoy was playing a bluff.

Draco rose from the couch. "I would like to show you what was found a moment ago."

The tapestry moved aside and out stepped Tonks being strong armed by a large wizard.

"In exchange for you not finding us. Her life."

Harry took a quick look at Tonks. She nodded towards him.

Harry started to lower his wand, appearing to be unwilling.

Tonks reached around slowly.

Draco's guard was let down.

Harry immediately shot a binding charm at Draco.

Tonks turned the wizard's wand against him. He was down.

"I guess they didn't know you too well." Harry said.

"True. Such a shame." Tonks said. She grabbed her own wand and set a binding spell.

"I would have suspected more from Malfoy." Remus said.

"He didn't get word about Nygun and Zambini fast enough. So he thought he would play it cool." Harry answered.

Remus nodded. "We better transport them to the Ministry."

Tonks had already begun work on a transport. She was gone in a matter of a minute.

Harry and Remus followed a moment afterwards

They had arrived back at the Ministry to the holding area. "I will have a search and seizure team on the manor." Remus said. "We have Malfoy now. Never thought I would see it."

It had seemed everyone at the Ministry had shown to see Malfoy being thrown in the holding cell to await trail. Malfoy was escorted down the hall by four Auror guards.

It was almost like a parade of people standing to stare at the sight.

Along the ranks Harry saw Hermione and Ron. Eric was in between them. Harry took a minute to admire how matched the three of them looked.

As Malfoy passed, Ron shouted for them to hault.

"I want you to see what brought your down fall." Ron said to Malfoy in a surprisingly civil voice. He then took Eric by the hand and guided him over. "This is my son. He was the one who brought Hermione back to us so she could expose you. This child as more veracity at his age than what you ever will."

Malfoy looked at Eric as if staring at a strange creature. He then looked at Hermione and Ron. "Half blood." He muttered.

There was a quick movement from Draco. To someone from the outside they would say that he was trying to escape. But it had been Hermione. For the third time she had slapped Malfoy across the face. She indeed had a good aim.

The guards continued down to the holding cell and threw Malfoy in.

"Good riddens to bad rubbish." Tonks said. "I do suppose that will be the end of that."

"We can go on to important things." Ron said. "By the way, nice punch dear."

"I suppose I should quit that. I am a mother after all." Hermione said. "Now about that Chapel in Diagon Alley."

"They take a moments notice and it is very nice in there." Ron said.

"I've seen that Chapel it is nice." Molly said.

"We'll gather all of your brothers Ron and head there." Arthur said.

"Thanks," Ron said. "I need to go to the Burrow. That's where my dress robes are." His ears went pink when he looked at his mother.

"I'll get my parents and meet you at Diagon Alley." Hermione said.

"Do you think I am letting you out of my sight?" Ron argued. "I'm not leaving you alone for a moment."

"A bride isn't supposed to see her groom before the wedding you know." Ginny said.

Hermione smiled at Ginny. "My bridesmaid does have a point. She'll just have to come with me. Nothing can stop me from marrying you."

"In that case my best man better come with me and help, you don't mind Harry?"

"Not at all." Harry answered.

"I'll take Eric. Let you get things done." Harry said picking Eric up. Eric had no objection being with Harry at all.

"He seems to like his Godfather." Ron said.

Harry looked at Ron and grinned.

"We discussed it." Hermione said. "There is no one we could think of who would be better."

"I'm honored." Harry said.

"Ginny," Ron said to his sister. "Eric is also going to need a Godmother, if you don't mind."

"Well, I am already his aunt. I might as well be his Godmother." Ginny answered giving Eric a slight hug.

They had departed then. Ginny and Hermione to her parents. Arthur left to find his sons. Molly said she needed to go to the Burrow to get ready.

Harry went to the entrance where the fireplaces were. He used floo powder to transport Eric back to the Burrow. Ron was already waiting in the kitchen.

"I think this one needs a quick bath." Ron said. "I think he was playing in something he wasn't supposed to."

Molly who had just entered with Ron's dress robes pointed at the laundry room. "You can clean him up in there. Some of his clothes are in there I just cleaned."

Ron took Eric into the laundry room and started to clean his face and hands off. Harry picked up the basket of clean clothes and started digging in them for one of Eric's outfits.

Eric broke away from Ron and made his way to the basket. He reached in and pulled out something that was scarlet colored.

"I think that is one of his." Harry said putting the basket aside. "And I think he wants to where it today."

Ron turned to Eric. "Is this the outfit you want to wear to your parent's wedding?"

Eric very enthusiastically shook his head yes.

Ron took the outfit and laid it out. "Um Harry. Wasn't this the outfit that Eric was wearing when Hermione was found?"

"I believe so." Harry answered.

"You are seeing the same thing that I am seeing, right?"

"I believe so." Harry answered. "It is almost uncanning."

"My Son has an outfit that looks like my old Quidditch Robes, that he choose to wear." Ron said.

"If anything ever proved that Eric was your kid. I think this would be it." Harry said.

Ron smiled as he helped Eric out of his current clothes and into the outfit. Ron thought how adorable he was. "I wonder if he knows how important today is."

"He probably does." Harry said. "I'll take him so you can get changed."

"Thanks." Ron said.

Harry went to the kids playroom and let Eric play with the toys. He resisted the urge to put him on the play broom and let him learn how to balance on them.

"I suppose you are probably the best thing that happened to Ron and Hermione." Harry said to him. "I know that they will take care of you and you will probably take care of them too."

Eric was looking at a toy hammer and tapping things with it.

"I hope someday I can at least find a way to thank you for finding us. Ron was so sad without your mum. You made his life so much happier."

Harry had sensed Ron entering right then.

Ron had deep blue robes with a star pattern on them.

"I see you're ready." Harry said. "We better get you to the chapel."

"I'll take Eric so you can get ready as well. I know Hermione she will want everything as perfect as she can get it." Ron said taking Eric. I will floo him there. I'll just make sure he doesn't get dirty. Like his Godfather did."

"Alright." Harry said trying to sound stern. "I'll meet you at the Chapel then." He went home changed and hurried off to the Chapel to get things ready.

Hermione and Ginny had Disapperated and Apperated right into the Granger's sitting room. Both were there and surprised to see their daughter just popping in again.

"Hermione," Mrs. Granger said. "Ginny, hello. Did we get our daughter back?"

"Yes," Hermione answered. "I remember everything." She said. "I also have some news." She held out her left hand to show the ring. "Ron and I are getting married."

Mrs. Granger hugged her daughter nothing else to say.

Her father got up and hugged the both of them. "I am happy for you." He said very sincerely.
