If you don't like the stories on , then go to another site and read their stories. FYI, tell me, if I am a straight A student here in America and have one of the highest GPA's in my year, then I am sorry if you consider that under-educated.

New Resolutions II Chapter 6- The Attack
Harry and Draco walked into the meeting room the next day after the babysitting catastrophe. All the Aurors under Harry's command, about twenty, was meeting. They hope to have everything figured out about the last of the Death Eaters.
"Harry...why are you limping?" asked Tonks looking up at them.
"And how did you get that bump on your head Malfoy?" asked Dean Thomas.
"The little demons that are supposedly our children," said Draco sitting down.
Everyone snickered at them.
"Found out anything?" snapped Harry glaring at them.
"No," muttered Tonks.
"What happen to that lead you thought you had?"
"It ran into a dead end."
"That's great. Dean, how many are still out there?"
"Um..." said Dean shifting through his papers. "Five."
"Why can't we just leave them? They haven't done anything in a few years. What could five of them do?" asked Noah Manning, an exchange Auror from America.
Harry turned to glare at him. Draco shook his head. Everyone else just stared at Noah. They knew he had said the wrong thing; Noah got the impression too.
"Those five could get more supporters and become powerful again. Then, we would be having more problems then we have now. And this is a personal thing for me as well," said Harry still glaring at him.
"Why?" Noah asked.
"I don't think you need to know that," snapped Draco.
"No...I'll tell him Dray. Leah, my wife and Draco sister, was kidnapped when she was fifteen by them. And now, they threaten my twins and that doesn't go over good for me. So, we aren't going to stop until we have ALL of them. Got it?"
Noah just nodded, his light brown hair falling into his face. Harry glared at him before a minute longer before he snapped at Dean.
"Who are they?"
"Jugson, Rookwood, Nott, Dolohou, and Avery."
"Do we know here any of them are at?" asked Draco.
"No...what about Pettigrew? Would he know?" asked Tonks.
"Maybe. Noah and Tonks, why don't you fix a time tomorrow to see him. See if he will give you anything useful," said Harry.
Noah and Tonks nodded in agreement.
"Does anyone have an idea where they might be? Draco...where was some of your fathers hiding places?"
"We checked all of them. The only thing I can think of it that they staying in an unpottable manor. I know my father had some," said Draco leaning back in the chair.
"Did your father own them?"
"Yeah...I guess my mother would be in charge of them now."
Harry's head suddenly turned to Draco. "Your mother?"
"Yeah...why?"
"Lets see if we can question her," said Harry with a smirk.
"What good would that do?" someone asked.
"If she is hiding them, we can question her."
"I don't think she would be that stupid. She is a Malfoy, no offense Malfoy," said Dean.
Draco nodded. "Then you obviously don't know her."
"How can we bring her in? We don't have any charges to charge her for," said Noah.
"We can think of some," said Tonks.
"Not everything has to be the book Manning. You make them work to your advantage," said Draco.
Noah just nodded.
"Don't worry Yank, you will figure it out soon. Not to mention, that our Commander is the Harry Potter. So he basically can do anything he wants," said Evan Daniels with a smirk.
Noah paled even more before he looked at Harry.
"Harry Potter?"
"Snape, but all the same. And don't look at me like some god, Manning," said Harry.
Draco snorted at him. "Close your mouth, Manning."
Noah snapped his mouth close just as the door to the room busted open and Blaise came running in.
"Harry...attack!"
Harry jumped up and started toward the door. "Where?"
"Hogsmeade."
"Everyone lets go!"

"Good morning Leah," said Pansy slipping off her cloak.
"Hey," said Leah glancing up for a second to give a smile before she went back to writing.
"Heard from Ginny or Hermione this morning?"
"Yeah...Ginny sent a note saying that she was going to kill me. The hang over potion I gave her didn't get rid of the whole thing."
Pansy gave a giggle. "How did the guys do at babysitting?"
"Great."
"Really?"
"If you say great is having paint everywhere, food through out the whole house, Ron and Sirius ducked tape together, Draco having a bump and bruise on his head, and my husband limping around, then they did great," she said with a smile.
"Not bad, I have to say."
Leah laughed before she got up. "I got to check on one of the patients."
Pansy nodded as she left. She walked down the hall into one of the rooms.
"Good morning Sierra. How are you doing?" she asked.
"Okay Miss Leah," said a seven year old.
"That's good. Feeling okay? Anything hurt?"
"No, not really. I have a head ache but that's it."
"That's great. I say you only have to be here for a couple more days."
"Yay! I miss not having anyone to play or talk to my age."
"I think I can solve that problem. I have two twin daughters that are seven also. How about I bring them with me tomorrow for a little and they can keep you company for a while?" asked Leah writing something down on her chart.
"That would be great Miss Leah. What are there names?"
"Jordan and Lil-
"LEAH! COME HERE!" yelled Pansy.
"Lily. I'll be back in a few minutes. I have to see why my friend his yelling for me. I think the people getting tea could have heard her."
Sierra giggled and nodded. Leah left the room and started toward the front again.
"LEAH-"
"Is right here. What is it Pansy?" she said leaning over the desk.
"There was an attack in Hogsmeade. Several was injured and they are headed over here!"
Leah stared at her. Harry and Draco were they only things that were going through her head. "Um...get the whole staff on alert. Make sure we have all the potions ready for them."
Pansy nodded and started getting everything ready. Leah looked around before the elevator door opened.
"Leah...some help please," said Blaise helping carry someone out of the elevator.
Leah ran over to them to find a child, maybe seven as well, lying on the stretcher.
"How many children are there?" she asked.
"Five, six, something like that. Where do you want them?"
"Start them in room 2, straight in front of you. Two to a room and lay them on the bed. I'll me there in a minute."
Blaise nodded and followed her directions. Pansy returned with all the Healers.
"I need you all to start going to each floor. Pansy, you stay with me. We have some children. Go to where you are the best at...either anti-curses, potions...whatever, just go!"
The girls nodded and started toward the elevator. Just as the disappeared, Leah and Pansy started on the children. Leah walked into the room with the boy she had seen first.
"What happen to them both?" she asked looking at Blaise.
"Got hit with the Cruciatus curse," he said.
She threw two click boards. "Write that down. You got to help me Blaise. We are short on help today."
"Alright," he said beginning to fill them out.
Leah walked over to the supply cabinet and began to pull out all different sorts of potions.
"How in the hell did this two year old survive the curse?" she asked moving along the bedside.
"Harry took the curse off seconds after it was cased," he said.
"Harry? How is he?" she asked sitting the potions down.
"Fine when I left. He told some of the Aurors and other people around to bring the kids here."
She nodded. "I need your help. Hold her down while I give her the potions. Her body is drained from the curse but she sill will react. You, go out by the desk. Get in the cabinet and get me at least five anti- Cruciatus potion, " she said throwing a key at Noah.
Blaise laid the boards down and help the little girl down. Leah picked up a calming potion and tried to open the girl's mouth. She began to move and struggle with Leah and Blaise.
"Just hold her, okay?" said Leah.
She slid the potion down the girls thought and made her shallow it. Soon, the girl stopped struggling.
"Where is that boy with that potion?" she asked.
"Noah Manning. He's an American Auror. Already got on Harry's bad side."
Leah smirked. "Lets work on the boy. It looks like he broke his arm. Lets get a calming potion in him before we do anything else."
Leah grabbed a second potion and tried to get the potion in the boy. He, though, took it better than the little girl and took it with just a bit of struggle. She pulled out her wand and muttered a spell on the boys arm.
"Hand me the bandage out of the cabinet," she said holding the arm straight.
Noah came back in the room with the potions she asked for.
"Good, give only half a dose to the little girl please Noah. Just open her mouth and pour it down. Makes sure she shallow it," said Leah beginning to wrap the arm of the boy.
Noah nodded and did as he was told. "Now, give her a half a dose of sleeping draft. The light blue one on the table."
She finished with the two of them in that room giving the boy the same and a pain reliever.
"Where are their parents?" she asked as she went to the next room.
"They two that were in the other room were killed. The others, some are injured while others helped fight the Death Eaters," said Blaise.
"Alright. We can't do anything until we get their names and what not. How many children's parents were killed?"
"At least four."
She nodded and continued to work on the children. Finally, after calming potions, healing potions, and any other type of potions were given to the kids, they all were sleep.
Leah sat down for a second only to have Susan come out of the elevator, running up to her.
"Leah!"
"What is it Susan?" she asked standing up.
"Your brother want let anyone touch him. He wants you to see him."
"Stubborn ass. Alright, fifth floor?" she asked starting toward the elevator.
"Yes."
"Come get me if any of the child in the rooms wake up. Pansy is gone to another floor, so you stay with them," she said before the door closed.
Taking deep breaths, she closed her eyes and tried to relax. She knew her brother was okay if he was arguing with the other healers. She wondered how Harry was doing. Would he be with Draco? Was he still at Hogsmeade? She didn't have long to think about it as the elevator stopped.
"Leah, there you are. Your brother wants you," said one of the trainees.
"So I've heard. Where is he?"
"In there," the trainee said pointing to the room across from them.
"Thanks."
Leah walked into the room to find Draco sitting down on the bed, arms crossed.
"Are you being stubborn?" she asked pulling out her wand.
"Like I would let some trainee heal me," he said.
"What happen to you?" she asked seeing a bit a blood come from behind his head.
"A stupid spell hit me and sent me into a building."
"If you didn't go ahead of me like I told you, it wouldn't have happened!" snapped Harry stepping into the room.
"Harry...you okay?" she said relieved.
"Yeah...just a few cuts. That's all," he said giving her a kiss.
"Well, sit down and I will heal them once I am done with Dray. Lay down on your stomach so I can see your head better," she said pulling out her wand. "How did the attack go? And how did it happen?"
"The death eaters got more supporters. Attack Hogsmeade. We caught half of them and killed maybe a four of the others. Some of the people just doing Christmas shopping were killed."
"I've heard. I have about ten children in my ward. Blaise told me that some of their parents were killed."
Harry nodded and looked at Draco. "He saw that some of them were getting away and instead of getting them together, he went ahead of me. Got two of them but the other cased a spell on him making him hit a building. He went up unconscious for a few minutes."
"Alright...you have a deep cut here and a bump-"
"OUCH!"
"There," said Leah moving her head off his head.
She pulled out her wand and healed the cut, leaving just a littler one.
"Your lucky I don't have to cut your hair off," she said putting a bandage on it.
"If you had to, I'll be walking out of this hospital."
"And you tried, I would stun you."
"I don't doubt that," he muttered.
"You can turn around now on your back. Keep the back of your head off the pillows. You will be here at least over night. Before you argue, it just to be sure you don't lose conscious again and that the bump doesn't cause you any brain problems."
"Fine...but they aren't touching me. Only you are," he said.
"I'll tell them that. You are my patient. Now, Harry, I'll heal those cuts on you face and arm," she said turning to him.
"Alright. You said you had ten children right?" he asked.
"Yes. I'll need to get here names when they awake so we can contact their parents or relatives."
Harry nodded and just stared out into space.
"What is it Harry?" she asked after she healed him.
"Just thinking about the kids who lost their parents. I know how it felt for sixteen years without a family to care for them. I just don't want them to go through that."
"I'm sure they will be fine Harry. Not everyone is like your aunt and uncle."
"I know," he said trying to convince even him.
"I'll tell Rayya not to touch you Dray. I'll be back to check on you after I see-"
"LEAH!" said Susan running into the room.
"I am getting tried of people yelling my name today," she muttered before turning around. "Yes Susan?"
"You have some awake," she said.
"Alright. I have to go. I'll be back later Dray."
She walked out of the room and toward the elevator. "No one is to touch Draco. He is my patient. If he needs anything, call for me," she yelled as the stepped on to the elevator.
"But this isn't your floor," protected Rayya.
"Doesn't matter. He's my brother and I can have any floor Rayya. I am one of the Healers in charge because I can work any floor!"
"Don't argue with her, she is worse than her brother," she heard Susan say as the elevator closed.
Back on the second floor, she walked into the room with the boy and girl she first saw.
"Hello. I am Leah Potter-Snape. You may call me Miss Leah. Now, I need you know your name," she said sitting down by the boy.
"Nathan Cheever, ma'am," he said pulling the covers tighter around him.
"First, the ma'am thing has to go. It makes me feel old," she said with a smile.
Nathan gave a small smile and began to relax.
"Do you know this little girl over there?" she asked.
"That's my little sister, Savannah," he said.
She nodded and scribbled it down.
"How is your arm feeling?" she asked.
"Alright...hurts a little."
"How about anything else? Does anything else hurt?"
"No ma- Miss Leah," he said.
"You sure? No headache? Do you feel weak?"
"No, no headache but yes, I feel a bit weak."
"Good...I was getting worried if you didn't feel weak. That is a common effect to the potions I gave you. I was beginning to wonder about the potions I gave you."
Nathan glanced over at his sister. "Is she okay?"
"For the most part yes. I'll check her over when she wakes up. It might be a little while before she does though."
Nathan nodded and continued to stare at her.
"Nathan, can you tell me your parents names?" she asked cautiously.
"Kathryn and Jason but they were killed," he whispered.
Leah closed her eyes and tried to fight off the tears that were threatening to fall. "Are you hungry or anything Nathan?"
"No Miss Leah. Is it okay if I go to sleep?" he asked.
"Sure sweetie. Go back to sleep."
Leah sat beside him until he did drift off to sleep. She ran a hand through his wavy, sandy blond hair to help him fall asleep faster. Savannah was still asleep by the dreamless sleep potion she gave to her earlier. She understood what Harry was saying now. She hoped that some relative would be able to watch them and care for them.
She got up and walked over to the next room to find both of them asleep. Everyone was asleep except for a five-year-old boy that was in a room all by himself.
"Hello sweetie," she said walking over to him. He was one that Pansy had worked on.
The boy didn't say anything, just looked at her.
"Can you tell me your name?"
The little boy looked at her before he whispered "Thomas."
"Well Thomas, how are you feeling? Anything hurt?"
He shook his head no and moved back a little from her. Leah looked at him questioning before Pansy entered the room.
"Leah...they you are. Hey, you are awake. That's great!" said Pansy looking at him.
Thomas slid father back into the wall and just eyed them.
"Leah...I need to talk to you for a moment," said Pansy glancing at her.
"Alright...I'll be back in a minute Thomas," said Leah with a smile.
Pansy and Leah walked out of the room and Leah grabbed Pansy's arm.
"What happen to him?"
"Got hit with a couple spells. Had a few cuts and bruises," said Pansy.
"Then why is he-"
"That has been there," said Pansy finishing.
Leah's gray eyes turned to her with a hit of passion in them that Pansy hadn't seen.
"How many?" she asked.
"I wrote the number down on his chart. Leah, I don't want to say this because I don't know it is, but I've seen your and Draco's bruises and cuts...and they look just like them. There is no way he could have gotten some of them without someone doing it to him," said Pansy.
Leah just stared at her before she looked in the room at Thomas. He was just sitting with his arms around his legs, rocking himself back and forth.
"Don't jump to conclusions Leah. That is what I think. I don't know for sure," she said.
"Alright...but, can he be my patient now? Please...I want to watch him closely," asked Leah.
"Sure."
"Thanks," said Leah before she went back into the room.
Thomas' eyes followed her as she sat down beside him.
"Hi Thomas. I didn't introduce myself before. I am Leah Potter-Snape but you can call me Miss Leah. I will be watching over you for the next little bit, is that okay with you?"
Thomas just gave a slight nod and stared at her.
"Now, may I look you over?"
Again, he hesitantly nodded at her. Leah helped him pull off his shirt and looked at his back first. He has a few scars here and there with some new cuts that looked like not even magic could heal. She could tell where Pansy had healed some of the bruises that had been there. A few bruises were on his arm that she went ahead and healed.
"Alright...anything hurt?" she asked as she helped put his shirt back on.
He shook his head and buried himself under the covers.
"Are you hungry?" asked Leah writing some things down.
This time, she got a nod.
"Finally I got something out of you. So, what would you like? Soup, sandwich, chocolate frogs, Berty Box Every Favor Beans, or sugar quills? Your choice," she said with a smile.
Chocolate brown eyes gleamed up at her. "Chocolate frogs," he whispered.
"Great choice. They are my favorite too. Ate tons of them I think when I was younger. Healers orders," said Leah with a smile.
The corners of Thomas's mouth turned up into a small smile.
"I'll be right back, okay? I will be one minute," she said
Thomas nodded as Leah made her way out of the room. She walked over the desk and went in her drawer and grabbed two handfuls of frogs.
"Getting into your stash?"
Leah looked up and saw Harry smiling at her.
"Yeah...Thomas wants some," she said.
"Thomas?"
"A little boy that was at the attack."
"Curly blond hair, about to his chin with dark brown eyes?"
"Yeah...that's him. Why?"
"I found him. He was hiding behind a rock."
"I wonder where his parents are?"
"They weren't around anywhere I saw."
Leah shook her head. "How's Draco?"
"Restless. Dad, Jade, Hermione and Ron are coming by. Molly has all the kids."
"Okay...tell Draco I will be down once I get Thomas to go to sleep."
"Right away," he said giving her a kiss before he disappeared.
She walked back down to Thomas' room.
"Here you go sweetie. All the chocolate frog a boy your size needs," she said.
Thomas smiled again and started on one of the frogs.
"Tommy...is it okay to call you that?"
He nodded.
"Could you tell me your last name so I can contact your parents?"
Tommy looked up at her and she noticed a flicker of fear behind his dark eyes.
"Riddick. My parents are Abby and Will," he said.
"Alright...I'll see if I can get your parents."
Tommy nodded and stared at the wall.
"Do you want to tell me anything Tommy?" she asked looking at him closely.
"No Miss Leah."
Leah reached out and took hold of his hand only to get a vision. It was of Tommy and her kneeing in front of him.
"Don't make me go," whispered Tommy throwing his arms around her neck.
Leah shook her head and the room came back into view. She looked down at Tommy who was staring at her.
"Um...I am going to give you a couple of potions to take," she said standing up and walking over to the cabinet and pulled out a dreamless sleep potion.
Leah walked back over to him and handed him it.
"If you need anything, just ask for me alright. I'll come. Whatever you need," she said right before he took it.
She left the room as she saw him drift to sleep.
"Hey Pansy, I am going to go check on my brother. If you need help, come and get me."
"Okay."
Leah, for the second time that day, went down the elevator to her brother's room only to meet the room full.
"How could you be so stupid Draco!" yelled Ginny slapping him on the arm.
"Ginny...please don't hit my patient. Wait till I leave the room," said Leah.
"I didn't know you cared so much Gin," said Draco with a smirk.
Ginny glared at him before sitting down beside Hermione.
"Hey everyone," said Leah looking around.
"Hey Leah...been busy?" asked Hermione.
"Yes...I have ten kids plus the ones that were there. Sit up," she said slapping Draco on the arm.
Ginny smirked at Leah as Draco muttered something about women.
"Guess you won't be home tonight then," said Harry.
"Probably not. I'll have to say with the kids and try to contact their parents."
"You would think they would come here," said Ron.
"Well, some of them, I have to find relatives."
"Oh," said Ron.
"Can I leave yet?" asked Draco.
"I told you tomorrow and today isn't tomorrow. You will live being in here for a night."
"I've seen to many white rooms."
Leah shook her head and pressed on his bump.
"OUCH! That hurts," he protected.
"I know."

A/N- Finally...that chapter is done. It's the longest one so far. I've changed my mind about how many chapters it is going to be. I got an idea while writing this chapter and I want to work it in. So, as far as how many chapters, I haven't got a clue.
And the last name Riddick goes out to one of my favorite college basketball players, J.J. Riddick of the Duke Bluedevils.
As always, don't forget to review!
Love From, Abbie =)
