A/N: Here's my next chapter.
Tom knew there must be a lot of protecting spells over the house. But after about eight of the most powerful spells he could think of to break them, the house was left unprotected.
"What if they've got the Fidelus charm?" someone said. Tom was growing tired of the questions.
"Even if they do have it, I'll find a way to get around it. I got us here didn't I?"
"But-"
"It would be really terrible if you accidentally fell off your broomstick!" Tom hissed. That was enough to make everyone keep quiet.
Meanwhile, inside the house, everyone was sleeping soundly. Everyone, that is, except Ginny. She tiptoed down the staircase and down the hallway to the front door. She took a breath and reached for the doorknob, but a hand caught her wrist. She jumped and turned to face whoever it was.
Remus Lupin.
"Little late to be going for a walk, isn't it?" he asked curiously.
"Remus, I'm leaving."
"What about your mum and dad?"
"I left a note on my bed."
"Oh, yes, that'll make them feel better." Remus said sarcastically, "Their daughter has vanished but at least there's a note."
Ginny scowled and tried to wrench away from his grip, but unfortunately being a werewolf made Remus quite strong.
"Why does everyone keep doing this?" she sighed.
Remus took out his wand and said "Colloportus," which instantly sealed the door.
"Not fair." Ginny muttered, her wand was at back at home in her bedroom. She never expected she'd need it when taking the children to school.
"I don't see why you're so set on going back to Voldemort."
"I thought I already made this clear."
"Harry says you're out of your mind."
Ginny ignored him and attempted to open the door, with little success.
"You do know that that charm is impossible to break without magic, right?"
"Oh, shut up." Ginny said, storming into the living room to sit down.
"Daddy? Is mummy in the house?" Kristen asked.
"Yes. And I'm going to let her and her friends know we're here."
He muttered a spell and a loud bang erupted on the street. Lights came on in the house, as well as other houses. A few people ventured outside. All of them were wizards or witches of course, muggles no longer existed in the area.
Someone opened the door to number twelve and looked out.
"Attack." Tom commanded.
Lights, like fireworks, sprung in every direction as the house was bombarded. Whoever had opened the door immediately shut it. People ran back inside their houses for shelter, they knew which house was the target and did not want their homes to be the next.
"Daddy…" he heard Kristen whisper, "What's going on? They won't hurt mummy will they?"
"No." They'll regret it if they do, he thought.
"When will mum come out?" he heard his son ask.
"In a minute…"
Tom flew down to where the front door was. Lights were going on in all the windows. Tom flew to one of these windows and saw a woman taking a small boy out of his bed and running from the room.
"That's Cody." Kristen said, obviously seeing the boy.
Tom flew back to the front door. He tried a few simple spells at first, but there was no luck. Tom decided they must have used Colloportus.
"Evenesco!" he said. The door vanished completely. He was slightly surprised they hadn't charmed it to resist such a simple spell.
No one was in the room inside. Could they be hiding? All those years they tried to stop me and now I've put myself right in their sitting room and they hide, Tom thought, amused.
But unfortunately, that wasn't the case. Someone he hadn't seen for years, someone who was supposed to be dead came into the room, with his wand raised and ready.
"Potter." Tom said, he stepped in front of his three children, who had followed him inside.
"Voldemort. If I were you, I'd leave." Harry Potter said threateningly.
"Oh, don't worry, I will. After I finish some business."
Tom raised his wand at Harry.
"Crucio!"
But Harry dodged the jet of light. Tom swore.
"You'll have to try harder than that." Harry said, standing up.
"First, before I kill you, where is dear Ginevra?" Tom asked.
"You're not taking her away again."
"That's really for me to decide, is it not?" A voice said. They both looked at the stairs and saw Ginny standing there. "Now I know why Remus made me go to my room so quick."
"Ginny, get out. Now."
"No. Harry, this is my decision. Not yours."
Ginny walked over and stood beside Tom, facing Harry.
"He's a monster, Ginny. And I can't believe you're betraying your friends and your whole family for him." Harry said in disgust.
"I'm not choosing sides, Harry." Ginny said.
"You've got a funny way of showing it." He snapped. Tom glared at him.
"Don't you dare talk to her that way!" he pointed his wand at Harry, who froze. "It's really time that I finish this, so we can leave."
The look on Ginny's face softened a bit, she couldn't help but be afraid. She didn't want Harry to die, she really wished this had never happened…maybe it wouldn't…in their minds anyway…
She snatched Tom's wand before he could say a word. This never happened She thought calmly. They wouldn't remember a thing.
"Obliviate!" she shouted, closing her eyes. The spell hit everyone, including the triplets. This was fine for Ginny because she knew it would be hard get them to keep a secret.
"Stupefy." She whispered. They all fell unconscious.
A/N: It has been forever since I updated, I know. I had such a hard time trying to end this chapter. I'm definitely gonna make a sequel to this fic when I'm done. What's it about? You'll have to wait…
