A/N
I know you all love us and think we are the most creative people ever (lol) but unfortunately JK's original characters belong to her and only her. However we take credit for the children, Ivy and Melly. Sorry for the wait, please read and review. Enjoy!
A/N
"What do you mean Cara's not talking, all she ever does is talk," Hermione said, "Bring me to her."
"Okay follow me," Ginny led the way as Hermione and Fred ran after her. They stopped outside of a tent set up a few yards from the house. Inside there were healers, aurors and Order members trying to get Cara to talk.
"Everybody out!" Hermione yelled as she ran over to her daughter, "Oh not you Fred or Ginny," she called over her shoulder.
"Cara, honey what's wrong?" Fred asked.
Cara remained silent as she looked to the floor, silent tears streaming down her face. Hermione reached out to touch her face, but Cara withdrew. "Oh, sweetheart," Hermione said as she reached out to hug her. Cara took the comfort as long as nobody touched her face.
"Do you know what's wrong with her?" Fred asked a passing healer.
"No, I'm sorry sir, nothing yet. We're thinking sexual abuse but there is nothing else to prove that. Since that theory is down the drain we're thinking someone either slapped her in the face or did something else in the face or she saw someone be touched or slapped," the healer answered.
"Thank you," Fred went back to his daughter and told Hermione and Ginny word for word what the healer had told him. Cara looked up as Fred told the part of "…or she saw someone be touched or slapped…" Cara immediately began to cry harder and the only words that could be made out were "Emma…slap…locked…bedroom…"
"Cara, Cara, please tell us honey," Hermione pleaded, "If you tell us we can get Emma out."
Cara looked up. The tears stopped and she began to speak in a tiny voice, "I wasn't supposed to tell you, but if I can help Emma get out then I will."

"She said Emma was in her bedroom, which is the third window to the right on the back of the house." Ginny told the order members.
"To the left." Hermione corrected.
"Are there that many windows?" Shacklebolt asked.
"Yes on the top row of windows there is seven total. On the bottom, there are 5." Hermione explained.
"Big enough house?" Ginny laughed.
"Not quite." Fred laughed.
"No time for laughing get her out, now." Hermione said.
"We're working on it." Ginny said. "If we go in through the window and other people go in through the front door and take him out then we should get her out safely."
"Should?" Fred asked.
"What does it depend on?" Hermione asked.
"Whether or not he's with her." Ginny explained, "The people that go in her room must be absolutely silent in case he's guarding."
"What would he be doing in the room with her?" Hermione asked looking around.
"Umm Mione maybe you should go back to our house until we get her out." Ginny suggested.
"No. No way." Hermione refused.
"Mione you have to prepare." Ginny said.
"For what?" Fred asked putting a hand on Hermione's shoulder.
"He may have sexually abused her. We don't know what condition she'll be in." Ginny told them, trying to break it to them gently.
"Oh god." Hermione turned and buried her head in Fred's chest sobbing loudly.
"We should move in - Alpha team go get him, Beta team follow me." Ginny said looking at the ground in order to avoid her brother's eyes.
"Good luck. Bring her back safe." Fred called.
"We'll try." Ginny replied.

Emma sat on her bed, her cheek red from where he slapped her. She jumped off of her bed and tried the door again. Jiggling the doorknob, Emma was disappointed that Blaise still had the door locked. She ran to the window and tried that too, but Blaise had locked that too. Emma saw something stirring in the bushes. Emma noticed a bright red thing. Wait a second Emma thought, That's not a bright red thing. It's a head of hair! Emma tried to see which one of the Weasleys it was. Dad? No they wouldn't let him come. Defiantly not Cara. I doubt that it's any of my cousins. So that narrows it down to Uncle Ron, Uncle Bill, Uncle Charlie and Aunt Ginny. Emma raced to the window again. She saw Ginny looking up at the window. Emma waved and tried to open the window again. The door to the room opened and Blaise walked into the room.
"What are you doing Emma-bee?" Blaise asked walking toward her. Emma immediately made a break for the door. Blaise took out his wand and pointed it at her. "Emma-bee, I wouldn't do that if I were you. I don't want to hurt you but I would if I had to."
Emma came back into her bedroom. "That's my girl. Now you stay here and Daddy's going to call Mommy," Blaise said as he closed the door. Emma heard the key turn in the lock and she wondered if she was ever going to get out.
Downstairs, Blaise picked up the phone and called Hermione's cell phone. "Hi Honey. Don't worry Emma's fine," he began.
"What did you do to her?" Hermione asked in a worried voice.
"Nothing to worry about my love," Blaise answered, "I know that you are probably sending people to try and get in but if they try they will be electrocuted. So I would call off the people if I were you. Hermione I love you and I will let Emma go if you and Cara come live with me and if you marry me. If you say no I will kill everyone in your family, except of course you and our children. I'll give you half and hour to come up with an answer. If not, say good bye to the people you love because you never know which one I'll kill first. Bye my love."
He hung up the phone and began making French toast. This will cheer Emma-bee up. I know she loves French toast. She gets it from me.
--
"Mommy, come and get me, please mommy." Emma rocked back and forth on her bed.
"Mommy's going to be home soon and Cara and all of us will live happily ever after." Blaise stroked her hair.
"Stay away from me." Emma yelled.
"Come on sweetie I have French toast downstairs." Blaise said going to pick her up.
"I'm not eating anything you gigantic tool." Emma spat in his face.
"Ew! You little brat!" Blaise slapped her again.
"Ow." Emma put a hand to her cheek, "Get away from me. I have to use the loo."
"No can do angel, you're stuck in here." Blaise said.
"Mommy!" Emma called and Blaise whipped around, Emma jumped up and ran past him quickly running down the stairs as fast as she could.
"Emma-bee!" Blaise called chasing her.
"Mommy! Mommy I love you!" Emma called she reached the door and pulled it open.
"Emma!" Hermione called seeing daughter but she saw her fall over.
"What happened to her?" Fred asked joining Hermione.
"I told you electrocution. Call of your rescue mission or you'll never see your daughter again." Blaise grabbed a handful of Emma's hair and used it to pull her back into the house.
"Emma!" Hermione collapsed to the floor sobbing and tears jumped into Fred's eyes as he watched his daughter pulled away by the man he hated most.
--
"Huhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuh," Hermione hyperventilated. She kept seeing the limp body of her daughter being dragged back into the house. The rescue squad had been called off and Hermione had explained her phone call to everybody.
"Hermione, calm down," Fred tried to calm her down, "We're going to do something."
"I don't want to go back in there with him. I don't want to be alone with him," Hermione cried, "My…poor…Emma."
"I won't let you go in there," Fred hugged her tightly.
"You might have to," Ginny walked into the tent followed by Dumbledore.
"I've tried everything I could to get the electrical force field down but I think that he has used very powerful Dark magic," Dumbledore explained.
"No, I'm not letting her go in there," Fred hugged Hermione even tighter.
"Fred…I…can't…breathe…" Hermione managed to spit out the words.
"Oh, I'm so sorry," Fred said letting her go.
"Mione, I think that you going in there is the only way to get Emma back," Ginny told her.
"NO! I won't let you! I lost you once, I can't lose you again," Fred hugged Hermione again.
"Fred if I don't I'm not only endangering Emma but everyone I care about. He will kill everyone I love if I don't go. I can't live without you," Hermione said as tears streamed down her face.
Fred kissed her passionately and hugged her again. "If it's all you can do," he spit out.
"Fred I love you no matter what happens," Hermione kissed him. She kissed a sleeping Cara on the forehead and called Blaise. "Blaise I'm coming with Cara. Take down the force field."
Hermione snapped her phone closed and picked up Cara. She walked out of the tent and up to her dream home. Blaise kissed her on the cheek and Hermione made a disgusted face, which he didn't see, before disappearing into the house.
"Fred are you crying?" Ginny asked hugging her older brother.
"No," Fred said wiping his eyes.
"It's going to be okay," Ginny said hugging him one last time and then running into Harry's open arms.
"I hope so," Fred whispered.
--
"Cara sweetie wake up." Blaise shook her.
"Don't. She's had a rough day. Now where's Emma?" Hermione asked.
'SLAP', "Don't talk to me like that!" Blaise yelled.
"Mommy!" Cara called, "Are you okay?"
"Cara baby, I'm fine." Hermione rubbed her cheek.
"What am I doing back in here?" Cara looked around and up at Blaise.
"We're staying here now." Hermione said.
"Mommy and I are getting married tonight." Blaise said.
"But what about…" Cara started.
"Go watch TV sweetie, I'll come get you in a minute." Hermione said.
"I can't marry you." Hermione pointed out, "I'm already married."
"I'm surprised you don't know this, anytime if the first ten years of a wizarding marriage the wife or muggle-born that is part of the marriage may file for annulment because of mistreatment. It takes about an hour for the whole process and then we could get married." Blaise said.
"One problem he didn't mistreat me." Hermione said.
"They don't know that." Blaise said.
"But they check for bruises and signs of mistreatment, you have to have proof." Hermione reminded.
"I can give them that." Blaise hit her again.
"You bastard." Hermione spat.
"Don't talk to me like that." Blaise said again smacking her.
--
"Do you even have a plan?" Fred asked the Order. Dumbledore had set up a table and chairs for the Order.
"Not at the time. But we have heard some interesting things. I have planted a microphone in a pin that Hermione is wearing. Blaise is trying to get an annulment," Dumbledore explained.
"He can't do that!" Fred roared, "It can only be annulled if the wife was beaten or abused."
"There are some areas in the tape where we hear a slap. Blaise is beating Hermione and is going to say that you did it Fred," Ginny continued.
"Then we have to stop him," Fred said.
"I have already called the annulment office and they have agreed to work with us," Ginny explained, "Aurors will enter the home disguised as the people who are delivering the annulment papers. I have already informed Hermione of this. As soon as Hermione hears the doorbell, she and the twins will lock themselves in the master bedroom. As soon as the aurors ring that bell team Beta will apparate into the master bedroom and we will send Hermione and the twins into the arms of team Alpha at the base of the window. Does everybody understand the plan?"
Everybody nodded and Ginny continued, "Team Alpha and Beta get into your positions. Delivery people get the papers typed and printed. You should be ready in about half and hour. Now we have to be very careful. Got it?"
Once again everyone nodded their agreement and headed to their positions. The rescue mission was underway.
