CHAPTER 3
Morgan brought Remus, Buckbeak, and the 2 Slytherins to Godric's Hollow. Before they landed, she took down the wards and then raised them again after they had landed.
"This brings back memories." Remus said
"Follow me." Morgan said and led them inside. Once inside, they saw Lily still hugging Harry, but James wasn't there.
"Moony!" Harry exclaimed and rushed over to the shocked werewolf.
After Harry had nearly knocked over Remus, James came out of the bathroom. He and Lily both went over to Remus and Harry and hugged them both.
"My God, you are all alive." Severus said while Remus just cried.
"I told you they were alive, didn't I?" Morgan said
She and the 2 Slytherins walked further into the house, well, Morgan tried to but Buckbeak started to run toward Harry, knocking everything over. Morgan went to Buckbeak and brought him outside. Once Morgan came back in, Severus approached her.
"How did you plan on brining Sirius Black back from the Veil?"
I need you and Draco for that. Draco's mother was Sirius' cousin, right? Severus nods yes Well, I will be needing his blood to call him closer, then I can retrieve him, body & soul. However, I will need Draco to distract everyone at the Ministry so that you and I can go in, grab Sirius, and leave without anyone knowing any better."
"Why do I have to distract them?" Draco asked, finally making his way over to them.
"Because you are a Malfoy, and as a Malfoy, you can get the Ministry to do whatever you wish. You're family has many influences that even you don't know about." Morgan replied
"Then why am I going?" Severus asked
"I'll need you to be my anchor. It is your job to make sure that I don't fall in as well. I also will be needing you to help carry Sirius back, since I will most likely be weakened." Morgan replied
"I am not carrying that mutt." Severus seethed
"Oh yes you will." Morgan responded and glared at him, her eyes flashing red.
"And what makes you think that I will do it?" Severus asked
"Simple, Remus." Morgan replied and smirked.
"What makes you think that I will do it for him?" Severus asked
"Because it will mean a lot to him, and he means so much to you." Morgan replied.
Draco watched as his Head of House and Godfather scowl, glare, and seethe all at once at Morgan, who just smiled and walked away, effectively giving him her back. She walked over to the Potters and Remus, and stood beside Remus, who turned to her.
"What makes you so sure that he will do it for me? I mean, we have gotten to know each other better, but I don't think that"
"Remus, He cares for you, just like Harry and Draco care for each other. They love each other and Severus loves you and I know that you love him back. Don't bother denying that, I can sense just as much as you can."
"When do you think that you'll be back?" Remus asked
"Hopefully by this time tomorrow. I want to leave as soon as possible and avoid daylight."
"Mor, do you think you can bring him back?" Harry asked
"I know I can bring him back, and I will. Have I ever given you reason to doubt me?"
"No, but, I just wanted to be sure. I mean, Dumbledore"
"He will get what's coming to him. I will not let him get away with what he has done to so many people. I swear to you that he will pay and none of you will stop me, understood?"
"Yes Mor, but please be careful."
Morgan smiled at Harry and kissed his cheek. Harry smiled and went to get his broom. Morgan turned to the Potters and asked them for healing salve, calming potion, and a pain-reliving potion. Lily went and got them for her while Harry came back with his Firebolt.
"Here Draco, I think you could use this for the mission."
"Thanks Harry." Draco took the broom and kissed Harry on his other cheek, which made the raven-haired boy blush.
Lily returned and handed Morgan the requested items. Morgan thanked her and turned to the other 2.
"Alright, now that I have all we need, let's go."
"Wait!" James said and then rushed off. He returned with his old Cleansweep6 and handed it to Severus, who thanked him.
"Mor, please be careful, I don't want to lose you."
"You have nothing to worry about. Oh, James, could you lower the wards for when we return? I won't be strong enough when we get back and the pain might be... damaging."
"Sure thing, plus I don't think I want Dumbledore here after all that I have heard." James replied
Harry gave Morgan a hug and a kiss and watched them fly off into the dark sky. They weren't flying long when Draco spoke to Morgan.
"Are you sure that you and Harry aren't, you know, a couple?"
"I'm not his type Draco."
"Oh, what is his type? I mean, um.."
"Would you stop already? If he didn't fancy you, then he would have knocked you on your arse when you kissed him."
"I'm sorry, but, what is his type, you know, just for curiosity purposes."
"He told me that he likes blonde hair, gray eyes, slim build, graceful males that are in Slytherin."
Draco was so happy that he almost fell of his broom. Morgan raised an eyebrow and Severus flew closer to them.
"What did you say to my Godson that almost made him fall off?"
"I only confirmed that Harry fancies blonde haired, gray eyed, slim built, graceful males that are in Slytherin. It's not my fault that he almost fell off."
"Indeed. I'm grateful that I never had to teach you."
"And why's that?"
"I would have run screaming after your 1st day. You seem like the type that would do anything in your power to destroy other people potions and make it seem like you didn't do it, even if people saw you. You would also prank anything and everyone and get away with it."
"That's not true, I make damn sure that they know it's me. Plus, I only do that to people who deserve it."
"Ms. Lyndsay, I"
"Don't ever call me by my surname ever again Serverus Snape. I will not hesitate to kill you. Don't ask me why I don't want to be addressed by my surname, just listen to me."
"Alright, Morgan, Why are you doing all of this? Surely this is not an easy task for you."
"It is an easy task for those that possess as much power as Harry, Dumbledore, and other magical creatures such as Vampires and Elves. Dumbledore himself knows how to do this; I'm surprised that he didn't tell Harry about this when it happened. As for why I am doing this, Harry is like the younger brother I wish I had. If it'll make him happy, then I will do it. He has had too much grief in his life and I feel he shouldn't have to any longer."
"Why do you think that Dumbledore never told anyone about what happened that night?"
"I honestly don't know. I've only met Dumbledore once, and I'm sure that he had a reason for doing this, possibly it was a good intention gone wrong. What I do know is that he made a lot of people suffer for too long. He will atone for what he did to them, mark my words, he will pay."
"Let us hope that this goes well."
"Indeed." Morgan replied and Severus smiled.
Once they had landed at the Ministry, Morgan put an invisibility charm on her wings. Draco turned to Morgan and asked
"How long of a distraction will you need?"
"About an hour's worth. Oh, I almost forgot, I will be needing some of your blood. This may hurt a little."
Morgan slashed Draco's arm with her nails, grabbed the arm, and pushed out the blood into a vial in her other hand. Draco winced, but didn't pull away. She released his arm and corked the vial while Snape healed Draco's arm.
"Meet us back here in 1 hour. Good luck Draco." Morgan said
Morgan and Severus went one way while Draco went another. Severus led Morgan towards the Department of Mysteries. Surprisingly (and gratefully), they ran into no one and no problems. Severus opened the door and they went inside. Once inside, Severus continued to lead Morgan to the Veil. Once they reached the Veil, Morgan stepped up. She walked right to the Veil and looked at it. She walked around it and inspected it many times around. Once she was done, she turned to Severus.
"This is only an entrance portal. There has to be an exit portal very close by. He went in with his whole body and was an innocent man. Where do they keep prisoners?"
"Why? Can't you just use a locator charm with the blood you got from Draco?"
"I could, but the wards in this place would find me in a heartbeat. And that would be pointless."
"True, follow me."
Snape led Morgan through a side door, down a corridor, through another door, down some stairs, through a doorway, up some stairs, and then stopped at a red door. Severus pulled out his wand and wrote 'Sirius Black' on the door, tapped his wand in a rectangle pattern around the name, then opened the door. He entered 1st, held out his wand and muttered 'Lumos', Morgan following after him. She waited for her eyes to adjust to the darkness. In no time, she could see perfectly and Severus was using the lighted wand for himself. The 2 walked towards the centre of the room where Sirius should have been.
"He's not here Morgan, he must still be in the Veil."
"Ssssh, listen. Do you hear that?"
Morgan walked over to a corner of the room and saw Sirius Black curled up in a ball, shivering. She did not know if it was from fright, fever, or because of the cold room.
"Sirius Black, we are here to rescue you." Morgan said in an angelic, soothing voice, and held out her hand for Sirius.
Sirius looked at the hand, and then at the face, well, he tried to look at her face. Severus had stood directly behind her and the glow from his wand hid some of her face. He made sure that Sirius couldn't see him. He eventually moved his wand to that Sirius could see Morgan's face.
"What a beautiful Angel." Sirius said, and then passed out.
Morgan caught him in time. Severus pulled out a dreamless sleep potion and poured it down his throat. Morgan held him up and moved towards the door. Severus had yet to move.
"You coming or not?" Morgan asked
"How do you plan on getting him out of here unnoticed?"
"I placed an invisibility charm on him. You still see him because you know he' there."
"What about your wings?"
"Only invisible when I want them to be."
Severus followed Morgan and went back out the way they came, Severus up front. As they approached the top level they heard reporters shouting questions at Draco.
"Is it true Mr. Malfoy?"
"When did this happen?"
"How long has this been happening?"
"How do you feel?"
"How did your father react?"
The questions went on and on. Morgan and Severus used this to their advantage and quietly left. Once outside, they hid in the shadows and waited for Draco. Once Draco returned, they took off into the sky, which was now turning brighter as dawn approached.
"Severus, could you fly closer? I'm feeling a bit weak."
Severus flew closer and took most of the weight from Morgan. Draco also flew closer to Morgan with a worried look on his face. Severus decided to pull all of Sirius off of Morgan, which Morgan was grateful for.
"Morgan, are you ok?"
"I'm fine Draco. Daylight always makes me a bit weak."
Draco nodded and continued to fly close to Morgan, just in case. Once they landed, Morgan went straight into the house and onto the couch. Harry and Remus were instantly at her side. James and Lily went to Severus and Draco, who were both carrying an unconscious Sirius Black. They helped them into Sirius' old room. Harry and Remus were both fussing over Morgan who insisted that she was fine. They had never seen her this weak, even after the battle. Eventually, Morgan fell asleep. They carried her upstairs and placed her in teh same room as Sirius.
"Harry, did Morgan ever mention anything about finding a mate?" Remus asked
"She said she didn't want to find hers, why?"
"I think she did find him."
