New Resolutions II

Chapter 18- Losing Hope

By: Abbie Haven Snape

Lily and Jordan woke up in a dark, damp room. It was Jordan who was the first one to begin to realize what had happen to the two of them. She glanced over the room, finding nothing. But giving the room a second glance, she noticed something in the corner but shook it off as a play of the shadows.

"Lils…come on…we have to figure away out of here…" she said.

"How?"

"Don't know," said Jordan.

"How can you be so half cheerful when we were kidnapped?" muttered sliding to lean again the wall.

"One of us have…are you okay?"

"No…my leg…" she said rubbing it.

Jorie walked over to her and sat beside her. "You might have broke it while you were trying to get away."

"Probably…"

"I have a bad feeling about all of this Lils," whispered Jordan looking at her.

"You're not the only one," said Lily.

"Lils…Jorie…" came a harsh voice from the corner.

Jordan jumped up and Lily tried only to fall back down in pain.

"Who are you?" asked Lily.

"Lils…" said the voice again.

Jordan looked down at her sister who shrugged. She took a step forward, toward the voice. She tried to see who or what it was with no luck, until the figured moved, making Lily and Jordan both screamed. But Jordan's scream turned into a gasp when she saw whom it was.

"Tommy!"

Two weeks had passed since the twins were taken and Harry was a wreck. He only slept when someone would make him and was only home for a couple hours at a time.

Right now, he was sitting with his hands in his hair and his eyes closed. He was working on his seventh cup of coffee and it wasn't even noon yet.

Him and Leah seemed to drift apart those two weeks. They knew that they should be together but it was harder to be together than apart. Leah was at St. Mungo's most of the day just as he was at his office.

He rubbed a hand over his eyes trying to get the image of the twins out of his mind. He keep seeing them riding their broom the first time, Lily talking curiously to a snake, or Jordan poking at a crystal ball Sirius gave her when he found out that she was a seer. Just seeing them smile was enough to drive him crazy, knowing that he might not ever see them again.

"We're back Harry," said Draco walking into the room with his cheeks pink due to the snow that was continuing to fall.

"Well?" he asked leaning back in his chair.

"Nothing," said Tonks taking off her scarf.

"Damn," he muttered under his breath."

"Heard from Manning?" asked Draco going over to the fire.

"No…he better get back in soon," said Harry.

Draco nodded and starred at him. Draco was one of few that could tell, through the hateful and cold act, that with the twins gone it was really tearing him up inside. He walked over to him and put a hand on his shoulder.

"We'll get them back Harry. The twins and Tommy," he said.

"We better," he said simply. "Because if not, you will be out a brother-in-law."

"Don't make the same mistakes you did when Leah was gone Potter," said Draco starring at him.

"Why does it matter?"

"Because you have a wife, nieces, nephews, a father and step mother, friends, and everyone under your command. We all need you Harry," said Draco looking at him.

Harry shook his head, not saying anything. He closed his eyes for a brief minute before he head the door to the room open. Without even looking, he asked, "how did it go Manning?"

"Well…I wouldn't know because I am not Manning."

Harry opened his eyes and saw Ginny walking into the room. She gave Draco a kiss on the cheek before she went and stood by the fire.

"What are you doing here?" he asked.

"Well, if you don't want me here, I will leave," she said looking at him.

"No…we don't want that, do we Harry?" said Draco looking at him. Harry just shook his head no.

"Good because then you wouldn't want us either," said Ron as him and Hermione walked into the room.

"What the hell is going on here?" he muttered as his father and Jade came into the room.

"You aren't going through this alone Harry. Tell us what to do and we will," said Hermione smiling at him.

He looked between everyone landing on the twins who just came in. He slowly nodded at everyone.

"Let's get busy then."

Leah sat with only a single glowing candle to light to hallway she was sitting in. She sat there between Lily and Jordan's room. Memories from when she had been kidnapped flashed through her head. She wondered if the twins were going through the same thing. The only she wished for were that they weren't.

With Jordan's panther held tight under one arm, Lily's wolf under the other, and an oversized and stuffed snitch, Thomas' toy was pulled up against her chest. It was her way of holding on to them.

She closed her eyes as thoughts of girls and Thomas came into her mind. She wished that they would stop. It was just too painful to remember.

An owl pecking at her legs made her open her yes. She didn't even hear the owl come in the house. She saw a big fluffy owl she knew as Draco's pet, Jupiter. She noted the letter before untying it.

Le Le,

Hey Sis! Hang in there, okay? Everyone wants to help. Ginny, Hermione, Fred, George, Uncle Sev, Jade, and Ron are all here to help right now. Take a look at this.

Love, Dray

She raised an eyebrow as she took the newspaper clipping out of the envelope. It was from the front page of the Daily Prophet. It had a picture of the twins, saying that they had been kidnapped and if anyone knew anything to contact the ministry. Leah gave a little smile at that. Leave it to Luna Lovegood to write about that.

Suddenly, the picture disappeared from her vision as another scene faded into view. It was short but had a huge meaning behind it.

A quick second of seeing Lily before a green light took over the vision. That was it. The hallway came back into view.

"No…" she whispered as tears formed. She knew what was going to happen. Or she thought she knew it all.

Lily lie awake staring at the opposite wall as Thomas used her lap as a pillow. She knew that she had damaged her leg and if someone didn't heal it soon it could permit damage.

"Lils…" said Jordan looking over at her from the corner she had hid herself in the past week.

"Yeah?" she asked.

"Do you think that we will get out?"

"Of course we will. Daddy and Mum will get us," she said as if trying to convince herself as well as her sister.

Jordan looked over to Lily with a confused look. She always had to be the practical one, always thinking good positive. Couldn't she see that something was going to happen, something wasn't right? It was quite obvious she couldn't.

"Come here." said Lily and opened one of her arms for her sister to come over, and she did, leaning into her sister. She was the strong one, but now it felt as if her whole life was tearing up in front of her own eyes.

A/N- Hey ya! Well this chapter took a while, even though it was short. For the ones you didn't remember Ryan Miles, go back to chapter 8 and reread it.

Finally I think I know how long this story is going to be. At the beginning I said it was gonna be short but I kind of keep getting ideas. So, it looks like, right now, I will have 6 more chapters. That's it…just six.
