As soon as that ordeal was over they continued on their way. They arrived back at the ministry as the sun went down.
"What do mean you can't find him?" Molly screamed.
"Well Molly, ummm he just vanished without a trace. We are searching frantically but can't seem to find anything." The minister stuttered out.
"Oh dear, they'll never find him." Mrs. Weasley cried.
"They'll find him mum, I know where he is." Said a voice behind her. She turned around to see none other than Percy Weasley standing behind them.
"Percy, oh Percy." Mrs. Weasley cried embracing him in one of her famous back breaking hugs.
"Where is he?" Ron asked sternly. He still thought Percy a prat since he ditched his family some time ago, and he didn't know if he was to be trusted.
"I can't tell you hear, to many people will hear." Percy explained while he pushed them towards the exit. When they returned to the burrow Ginny went upstairs to rest. Hermione went to the kitchen to make some tea and everyone else went into the sitting room eager to hear what Percy had to say. As soon as she had returned and had given them their tea she sat down and Percy began to explain.
"Dad was at the ministry this morning and we glanced at each other but didn't say a word, but I overheard the man standing next to them as they were deep in conversation. He said something very interesting. He was talking about a Death Eater attack that was going to happen later in the afternoon, which you had a glorious time watching. I wanted to know how he knew what was going to happen. So I walked slower to catch more of the conversation. He said he had been tipped off by a certain individual who could get this information. I then noticed that he had never been in the ministry before and knew he didn't work there because I go through all the applications. There was something going on so I pretended to be doing something nearby to hear the rest of their conversation. The man went on saying that we shouldn't even try to prevent it because too many people would be killed in the process. Of course dad wouldn't be told he couldn't help so he told the man they were going to help no matter what he says or how many people would die because if they died doing what they were supposed to be doing it would be better than letting innocent people die. He then told dad to meet him at his house in three minutes. He then gave him an address to go to and disapparated. Dad was curious as to why he would meet them there but went anyways. I noticed after he had left he had dropped the address and for a good reason. He wrote on the back and it said, 'This man who lives here is a Death Eater. He is threatening innocent live as to making a Death Eater attack at the leaky cauldron.' I picked it up and gave it to the minister and he said not to go but that he would send a group of Aurors. That never happened because they were distracted by the attack. He is still there." Percy finished rather dramatically. Ron had his mouth open, Mrs. Weasley was in tears, Hermione had a hand over her mouth and Harry had his fists clenched.
"Well, what are we waiting for?" Ron asked rather angrily.
"There's just one problem, what are we going to do after we get there?" Percy said and asked at the same time
