Chapter eighteen – Voldermorts back!
"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 Severus Snape.
"Harry…what are you doing here?" He asked although it caused him great effort to do so. Harry immediately ran to his side and knelt beside him, the protective shield lowering. Bonnie was facing towards Harry so fortunately she couldn't see how badly injured her father was although she knew he was there.
"I saw them bring him back, I could sense that you were in pain, Dumbledore wasn't doing anything and I couldn't just let you suffer."
"You can't be here." Severus said spitting out a mouthful of blood onto the ground. "Please Harry leave."
"No, I want to stay and help, where are the others?"
"You want to stay and help while carrying twins with Bonnie in tow, I don't think so Har, did you really think that I was going to let you run off and fight the Dark Lord in your condition."
"But I'm stronger in this condition." Harry argued. "And besides I was pregnant with Bonnie when I killed him the last time."
Severus looked horrified at this new development. "Dumbledore let you fight him."
"He didn't know, only I did." Harry explained before placing a soft kiss upon his husband's lips. "You take Bonnie, her shield will protect you."
"Harry no, go back to Hogwarts and raise the alarm, I will get who is left and see you there." He was using his tone of voice that he most commonly used while teaching his less talented students. Harry smiled at the memory.
"I don't want to leave you, not like this." Harry protested as Bonnie began to cry, unable to see or reach her father. Severus moved round to kiss her and her little chubby hand came to rest upon his cheek and his wounds began to heal, although it was not done well the bleeding had stopped.
"Will you do as I ask now?"
"Of course, our daughter is going to make one talented witch one day, don't be too long and be very careful."
"Will do, I always am."
"Come on Bonnie sweetheart, one more time and then you go have a nap, we're going home now, do you want to go home."
She shook her head in the negative; Harry didn't know what to do. "Harry just apperate yourself to Hogsmead and walk, you have to leave now before your hurt."
Harry did so, he arrived in Hogsmead feeling a little light headed, it wasn't advised to apperate while you were pregnant but to make his husband happy Harry was willing to risk it. He was due to see Poppy in the morning for a check up however.
He hurried up to the castle; everyone was in bed as it was nearing the witching hour. Bloody typical, when he wanted no one around then there would be hordes of people when he actually needed someone there was no one. He ran as fast as he physically could carrying three children at the one time, all the way to the headmasters study.
Albus was sat at his desk eating a lollipop and frowned upon seeing Harry enter his office at such a late hour. "Harry, what is it this time?"
"You need to send back up to them, most are dead, the survivors are trying to get back… I know I shouldn't have gone but Bonnie took us both there, you have to bring them back otherwise Voldermort will kill them."
Dumbledore sighed and nodded. "Very well, I shall go myself, it is too late and too much to ask to summon order members, now I suggest that you put Bonnie to bed, if she has been using such strong magic then she most likely is tired."
Harry looked down and noticed that Bonnie had indeed fallen asleep somewhere along the journey from France up to the headmaster's office; Harry however wasn't surprised, he really couldn't have been prouder of his baby girl.
He walked back to his room with the happy thought that Severus would soon be back with them, however the feeling of dread lingered with him, Voldermort was back!
I know short chapter but at least not a major cliff hanger. I will write more soon, but I have another two history essays to complete but do not worry I will finish this story no matter what. Please review. Xxx.
