The love of a child

Chapter seventeen – Harry Potter to the rescue!

Harry awoke early the morning after his wedding, he was drenched in cold sweat and screaming, he had not had such a nightmare since the days that Voldermort was still around. Hurriedly he dressed, whatever had just happened he had to report it to the headmaster as soon as possible.

The pregnancy was beginning to slow him down, however with two hours he managed to get himself and bonnie ready, however it was just about time when Dumbledore would be in the great hall for breakfast, so that was where he hurried off to.

As predicted there he was happily tucking into his porridge at the head table. Not wanting to alarm the students he walked towards him as calmly as he could. "Dumbledore, I need a word with you in private."

"Can it not wait Harry?"

"No, it really can't. You need to bring them back."

"I thought we'd been through this, we cannot bring them back until…"

"Not even if Voldermort was back?"

"Now, what has lead you to believe that such a thing as happened?"

"I had a vision, I saw them doing it."

"It could have easily have been a bad dream Harry, after what you saw and did I wouldn't be surprised."

"One question, when did you turn into Fudge and not trust the evidence that was right in front of your face."

"Harry…"

"Have I ever led you wrong before?"

"No, you haven't but until I see more evidence I see no reason why we should start a panic."

"I'm not asking you to tell the entire wizarding world, I'd settle for warning those people that are about to go into battle."

"If I agree to warn them Harry will you please just carry on the day as normal, it would be nice to have one day where everything goes as normal."

Reluctantly Harry nodded; little did he know the headmaster was not doing to keep up his end of the deal. Harry attended all the classes he was suppose to and had a relatively normal day despite the fact that he was constantly worrying.

However by the time that dinner rolled around a sense of panic was filling him that wasn't his, it was the bond, Severus was in danger! Harry knew the headmaster would be no help in this situation, judging by the way he had acted at breakfast it seemed that he would just let them die.

He put Bonnie in a baby carrier thing and placed it on his front, he was going to need her protection shield and power if he was going to save them. Harry knew that this was his saving people thing that Hermione had warned him about in fifth year but it wasn't in his nature to just sit back and watch as things unfolded.

He had a clear idea to how he was going to get there, his logic was that if Bonnie could bring Sev to them all the way from France then she was most likely capable of taking them to him. The only draw back to his wonderful plan was he had no idea what he would find upon reaching Severus' camp. He knew that his husband was alive through the bond and that he was injured but nothing more than that.

This time he did not even seek to find Remus and let him know, instead in left a note in case any one came looking for him and found his chambers empty. He then turned to his daughter who was sucking on a digestive biscuit unaware what Harry was about to do. "Bonnie sweetheart do you want to go and see Papa, take us to see Papa." She smiled and clapped her hands together in excitement.

The next thing Harry knew he was standing next to the row of tents where he and Severus had spent two glorious hours together. "Bonnie danger." He said as he heard a curse being fired at them from behind, the jet of red light was reflected off the shield protecting them both. At once Harry turned around to face the masked deatheater who was limping from a wound that had been inflicted upon them recently.

"Where are they?" Harry demanded, he tried to keep his voice even, he knew that his husband was around here somewhere and he was badly hurt but apart from that he had nothing. The deatheater was now laughing at him in a manic fashion.

"The great Harry Potter finally makes an appearance, my master will be so pleased."

"I have thwarted his plans countless times, I can and will do it one final time."

"Even you Harry Potter cannot destroy the Dark Lord now, he knows your weaknesses." The deatheater gave a pointed look at Bonnie who was still holding the shield up and sucking on her biscuit as if it was no effort in the slightest.

"If you dare look at her in that way again, I'll make you wish you had never been born." Harry snapped however he never got a chance to fulfil his threat as the killing curse caught them in the square of the back and the deatheater fell to the ground in a lifeless heap revealing…
