"I love this little boy," Sarah squealed as she hugged a 9 month old Harry to her chest. Lily laughed, "Well, when are you and Remus gonna start making babies?"
"Well, soon I would hope…whenever it happens, it happens I guess,"
"Yeah,…what would you hope for?"
"Remus is hoping that we'd have a girl, I think he'd be sooo cute with a little baby girl,"
"He would," Lily nodded as played a game of peek-a-boo with Harry.
"I can't believe Peter would kidnap," Faith raged as she paced back and forth.
"I can," Sirius put in calmly as he tipped back in his chair, "the man is a regular rat.
Remus stood very still and seemed to be deep in thought, "We have to find her,"
Faith stopped pacing and turned to look at Remus. Sirius set all four legs of the chair on the floor, "How do you propose we do that?"
"I don't care how we do it, but we need to. My daughter is missing," Remus growled through gritted teeth. Faith and Sirius both sighed deeply, "We understand that Remus, but we don't even know where Voldemort is. And even if we knew where he was, that doesn't mean that Catherine is there," Faith explained.
"She's right mate," Sirius nodded, "We'd go running right to Voldemort only to find that Catherine isn't there,"
"I don't think Remus and I having a baby anytime soon would be a good idea," Sarah put in as she gave Harry a cookie.
"Why not?" asked Lily as she nurtured her 4th cup of tea.
"Well, there is all this..Voldemort stuff going on," Sarah noted, " I just think it'd be hard to raise a baby and be in the Order,"
"It is," Lily added.
Remus left the room and went to go find his wife. She was exactly where he had left her. She didn't even appeared to have moved. Remus eased himself gently into the seat next to her. She looked up at him with sad eyes. Her face was dreadfully pale and she didn't mutter a word.
"We're working on a plan," he said softly. Sarah looked back down at her hands.
"What do you think about moving?" Remus suddenly questioned. Sarah looked quickly up from her hands and at Remus.
"After we get Catherine back, and after Harry kills Voldemort, lets move. Lets move far away from deatheaters and dark marks and all of it. We'll move somewhere safe. Somewhere we can raise our children." He added. Sarah looked down at her hands and then murmured, "Ok,"
4 days later they still had nothing. Sarah and Remus had temporarily moved into the room across from Harry's at Tera Manor. They just couldn't stand to be in their own home. Severus and Faith had not returned to school and Severus was now staying in the basement of Tera Manor, much to Sirius's displeasure.
Faith, Sirius, Remus, Sarah, and Severus all sat at the kitchen table. Faith sipped a large cup of coffee while Sirius viewed the Daily Prophet. Sarah ate a piece of toast blankly and Remus conversed with Sirius about what was written in the paper. Severus was hunched over a steaming up of coffee, he chanced a look over its edge at Faith.
"Ow, Damnit!" Faith jerked her chair back. She had spilt a good portion of her coffee onto herself. She clutched her arm. Remus noticed this and looked over at Severus. He also clutched his arm.
"Whats he saying now?" Sarah muttered flatly.
"Same thing as always," Faith mumbled, "Come to me,"
"I have a question," Remus interrupted, " Does he ever tell you where to go?" Sirius peered over his paper at Remus who was giving questioning eyes to Faith.
"I know what you're thinking," She replied and left the kitchen to go change her clothes.
Much later that day Faith was in the kitchen, busy cleaning it. The sky was dark and an almost full moon hung in the sky. She winced as the pain in her arm intensified.
"Take this," a voice offered. She turned and saw Remus holding out a glass filled with a purplish liquid.
"It'll dull the pain," he commented. She took it and drank it down without question. Remus sat at the table as she continued to clean. After a minute or two he inquired
"Does Voldemort tell you where to meet him?"
"Yes," Faith answered quickly. She stopped and turned around to face him. A look of pure shock was on her face. She eyed the glass that had once held the purple liquid.
"Truth serum," she breathed. Remus only gave a short nod as he asked.
"Are you going to tell me where Voldemort is?"
"No,"
"Where is Voldemort, Faith?" Faith clamped two hands over her mouth as her voice tried to muffle through them.
"Put your hands down," Faith shook her head and went to leave. Remus was at his feet in a flash and held her around the shoulders.
"Faith, I just want to know where my daughter is. Why won't you tell me?"
Faith moved her hands away from her face for an instant, "You'll kill yourself. Voldemort will destroy you,"
"Just tell me, Where is Voldemort?" he almost roared. Faith clamped her hands over her mouth again as she mumbled something. Remus tried to grab at her hands, anger was pulsing through his veins. 'Just tell me!' he thought. She tried to turn away from him but he grabbed her by her shoulders with surprising strength. He forced her up against the wall, Faith managed to knock over a large glass vase that made a loud shatter. Remus grabbed at Faith's wrists and yanked her hands away from her face.
"Tell me where he is!" he screamed as he shook her.
"The Ministry of Magic," she whispered.
"What?" he roared,
"THE MINISTRY OF MAGIC!" she roared back with tears welling in her eyes. Remus let go of her and with a small popping noise was gone as Sirius and Sarah came thundering down the stairs, shocked by the crash they had hear earlier.
