A/N thank you all for the reviews. Harry Potter is not mine this is a story from a fan.

(BSC 4 C6) C93 Snitches and masks.

That night everyone had gathered around for another family night. None of them had dry eyes as the tears were flowing down their cheeks from laughing. Some were banging their fists on the table while others were holding their ribs.

Bellatrix had told them some stories and had given them some memories from the time she, her sisters and Sirius had been children.

The only one at the table who wasn't laughing was Sirius. The pout he had on his face told the others he didn't like it one bit but he took it because he had to. Sirius was cut off by Tonks the moment he started to protest. "Bellatrix has told us that it was your punishment for not believing in Harry and for jumping to the wrong conclusions, the moment you heard that Ginny was his slave. You were thinking the worst without giving Harry the opportunity to explain himself".

Sirius turned his eyes down in shame and felt the comforting hand from David on his shoulder. "Just take it, Sirius, I know I'm still not in the clear with the mess I personally made. So just take it and hope they will leave it at that" the moment David said it he saw a look in the eyes of the friends that told him he wasn't in the clear at all.

Sirius nodded as the others went back into the pensive to watch the third memory of the Memories Bellatrix had given them. It was also the last one and the best one according to Bellatrix.

The worst Memory of Sirius Orion Black.

It was early in the morning when Little Bella and Little Narcissa sneaked their way into the bedroom of little Sirius. The one thing that everybody knew was that Sirius was deadly afraid of Spiders. The other thing that was important in this memory was that Sirius had the nice age of thirteen. His best friend at the time was his right hand, and because of that, he slept mostly in the nude. His mother had screamed at him to put his pajamas on but Sirius had ignored her and kept on sleeping in his birthday suit.

So this was the best time to play a prank on Sirius. Narcissa went over to the bed where she slowly removed the bedclothes. Bella placed three spiders at the end of his bed and made sure that the strings were in a way that when the pulled them that the spiders would crawl over his whole body.

It was that Bella walked back to Andromeda who had been standing guard and waited for Narcissa to pull the Bedclothes back.. Just before she covered him she looked down and said in a whisper." sure hope that it will Grow when he is Older because this is just tiny".

This made sure that the three sisters rushed away from the door in a fit of giggles while they rolled out their strings. They went around the corner and waited another minute before they started to slowly pull the strings towards them.

With their ears strained at any sound, they listened as they heard a soft moan. The moan was followed by a little rustling just before they heard him falling out of the bed as she started to scream like a little girl.

Just by the sound of him trashing around the knew that he had been tangled up in his blankets as he tried to make his way to the door. Four seconds later the door of the room was thrown open and Sirius came running out screaming about spiders as he gave the girls the best backward's smile he could.

"SPIDERS, SPIDERS IN MY BED".

Still as nude as the day he was born he ran down the hallway, down the stairs and straight into the kitchen, still screaming his head off about spiders.

Andromeda, Narcissa, and Bella scrambled to their feet and rushed after him and stopped just in the doorway and looked how Sirius slowly started to calm down.

There he was standing in the middle of the kitchen. It was Sunday morning and the whole family was there to celebrate ESTARA ( day of Conception, Regeneration, New Beginnings. Mar 21 ) which traditionally started with a breakfast together with the whole family.

The eyes of Sirius became big as he screamed like a girl again as he rushed out of the kitchen past the sisters who were rolling on the ground from laughter.

Everyone left the pensive or stumbled out of it. The laughter that filled the air was wonderful.

Amelia stood next to Sirius and tried to reassure him that it was okay. But her laughter made it hard to believe. "Traitor" Sirius mumbled.

Sirius stood and pointed a finger at Andromeda. "It was you who got those Spiders. Don't say it wasn't you, because I know it was you. Who gave you those spiders".

"Andromeda don't say it. He doesn't have to know it was me".

Right after the words had been spoken, everyone turned to the sound of the one who said it.

Sirius sat down at the table with his mouth standing open.

James had big eyes as he turned to Lily. "You, it had been you all along". He stuttered "You had been the one who gave those spiders to Andromeda".

Lily smiled and nodded.

"That's, That's… That's just so Slytherin of you" Sirius screamed.

Lilly looked at him before she broke down. After ten minutes of laughing, she looked at Sirius again who had just been sitting there. "Sure it's Slytherin of me. It would have been the house where I was supposed to go. Only I asked the hat to place me in Gryffindor. Look, Sirius, I was the one snake in the lion's pit, and none of the Lions ever knew. I was a true Slytherin just like my son and Daphne had done when they were sorted, and she looked fondly at Harry and Daphne.

That evening was filled with all kind of Stories of there time at Hogwarts. Remus, Sirius, and James were telling about all the pranks they pulled and Lily and Isabella were telling them about the times Sirius, James and Davis were trying to be romantic. A complete failure ad every front.

*#*

That night it was another opportunity for a family dinner. Harry had joked that they might as well move into Potter castle. Something the friends all wanted and most of the adults were starting to also see the benefits of being together all the time. Maybe even some little houses for themselves. The Peverell estate was big enough and it was something Harry would let them do just to keep them around.

The happiness they felt only increased the moment they heard they were all invited to go to the Quidditch final in a couple of days. So the rest of the night had been nothing but Quidditch and who would win.

It was also on these nights that Zanita would join them. Most of the time she had to stay at Hogwarts to recharge and she had noticed that she could stay out longer and longer at a time. Every night she was there was a holiday for herself. Everything she saw was new and the best thing that she had seen were the comic books. It was also the one thing Harry had done for her. She now had a room at Hogwarts that was full of comics. Just for her and her alone.

*#*

Everyone had staid the night and came down to breakfast in the middle of another discussion about who would win the final. Most of the adults sat down and listened with a smile as the kids were getting more excited as the time came closer.

The floo erupted and Narcissa stepped out with nothing but worry on her face. Without cleaning her self she stepped over to the table. She placed both of her hands down on the table and screamed. "You are not going to the final. None of you".

Even before Narcissa had said what she wanted to scream the friends all jumped up screaming that they were going and that it wasn't fair.

Narcissa started to scream back at the friends were screaming harder than her. Suddenly there was a big bang that was followed by Minerva screaming that they all had to calm down. After a hard look at each and every one of them, she told Narcissa to tell what she had come to say.

The friends wanted to say something but the look from Minerva made them snapped their mouths shut.

Narcissa nodded thankfully and took a seat at the table. Her face turned serious and her eyes were telling them all that she really had to think of a way to say it. "I'm Sorry" and she looked at each of the friends. "I know you all wanted to go and I would have loved to see all of you there. But last night something happened and that made me come here" She gave a deep sigh and looked down at the table. "Last night Lucius had some of his buddies coming by. I don't have to tell you all that it was his buddies from the time he was dressed in a white mask. They had decided that their kids had to learn some new skills and that is something they will be doing today and tomorrow. Now I'm sure that it won't be any tickling curse so watch out" and she gave a pointed look at Bella and Harry in particular.

"Now I know that he will probably fail, but he could get lucky and I don't know what he already learned but I know that whatever it is, it is dark. But that is not the reason why I'm here. Yesterday I had to play the trophy wife and that meant I had to make sure all his buddies had their drinks and a backside to pat as it walked by".

It was after those words that Harry jumped up screaming. "I'm going to kill that bastard".

Narcissa smiled and pushed him back down. "Thank you Harry, but after I told him that Lord Potter wouldn't like that kind of treatment he made sure that his buddies behaved. Now the things I heard during the night was that they wanted to create some havoc after the match. And especially during the night as everyone is asleep. They even took out their masks because it was a special event".

The friends all looked at each other and Hermione became the voice of logic. "But we could just go to the game and straight home after it".

All the friends nodded as they looked at Narcissa. She also nodded. "Yes that could have been an option and that was something I wanted to suggest last night so you wouldn't be in any danger. However" and Narcissa held up her hand so the friends wouldn't start again. "All of that changed this morning just before he and Draco would leave. It was this morning that Fudge came by and invited us to be there as his guests. Now we did had our own tickets but Lucius wouldn't let an opportunity go by for meeting other ministers from other countries. It was a little later that Lucius asked if he had other guests and Fudge told him that he had also invited you all. It was then that I saw a light in his eyes, the same light I had also seen on the day he went down on you all in the restaurant. What followed was Lucius asking all kind of questions of all of you. When you were coming and how you were all coming. But also where you would be staying and if you would spend the night there, just like all the others. And the Bumbling fool answered every question he had. He even told him that the ministry would arrange a tent for you and where it would be placed and what it would look like. And the more he said the happier Lucius became. So I don't want any of you near that camp side or game" Narcissa told them as tears started to fill her eyes.

"Now I DON'T KNOW WHAT Fudge was thinking when he told Lucius all of that. Maybe because of the bag of gold he got or maybe it was the thought of Lucius getting back in your good side. But the more Fudge told him the more I saw a diabolical plan forming in the mind of Lucius".

It was after those words that the friends were really quiet and thinking about the things Narcissa had told them. Harry knew that Narcissa wanted to save Draco from the path he was walking on. All thanks to his dad. At some point, he wanted to help her but Draco had made it really hard for them to do it. Their thoughts went to Albus who wanted Minerva there just so he could be at Hogwarts. Something was there that he wanted to do but they didn't know what it was. The last person was Lucius. Him asking everything told them one thing. He would be looking for them when they would bring havoc on the campsite. No the words from Narcissa had brought them to a complete hold. They still wanted to go but before they could say it it was Minerva who made the decision for them.

"It's is a shame but you are all staying home," Minerva said. Bella and Harry wanted to say something but Minerva just shook her head. "Before you two say anything, I know that you all can take care of yourself. However, if Lucius and his death eater buddies do attack the campsite than I want none of you to be any closer then you have to. Those men have fully grown wizards with a lot more experience then you have and that would make it that much more dangerous".

It was now again that Harry and Bella wanted to protest, but Minerva held her ground. "Let me make it clear. Lucius is a death eater and he will use dark magic like Arabella uses dirt. He will not stop because you are kids. His buddies will use killing curses like you all uses a quill. So if Narcissa says that he is up to something and that you have to stay home you will stay home, do I make myself clear".

"But grandma, we can take care of ourselves. We are not scared of Lucius or his buddies" Harry almost shouted.

Minerva took Harry into her arms. "I know you can harry, But you are the most important thing to me, and if I can spear you from any harm I will" and she kissed his forehead.

"But when we go to the match next week I don't want you all to just sit here moping around. I will make sure you will all have a day filled with a lot of fun and at night you can all listen to the match at the wireless".

Harry knew that his grandmother had made up her mind and that they had to stay home. He still wanted to argue with her but he was also very proud and touched. This had been the first time an adult hat looked out for him. Sure he knew that they always did. At least the family he had now. And it only made him love his grandmother even more.

As they were ushered out of the room to have some time for themselves Harry went over to the corner. He sat down and had a puzzled look on his face. He could not stop himself from thinking back to the day at the restaurant. He knew that Lucius would have killed them if he hadn't been so full of himself. This time, however, he wouldn't hold back. Especially when he heard that he and his friends wouldn't be there.

"Harry, what are you thinking about," Bella asked as she saw him sitting there just staring at nothing.

Harry looked at all his friends who were now looking at him. "I was thinking about the things Narcissa and my grandmother had said. I still want to go but I can understand why we are not allowed. But that said I don't think Lucius will stop if we are not there. I even think he will make even more effort because he can hurt us much more by attacking the ones we love".

"Damn Harry, you are right," Susan said as she pulled her hand in front of her mouth. "There will be chaos, people will get wounded and not only by spellfire. There will be a panic and many people will curs anyone just to protect themselves".

Harry nodded as the rest of the friends realized what was about to happen.

"We have to do something, "Hermione said".

"Yes we do, but we can't do it alone" Harry answered her.

All the friends gathered around and started to plan whatever they could do to help them.

*#*

The next morning all the friends gathered around the breakfast table. Most of the adults had left for their jobs, But the adults who could stay with them. This meant that Isabella and Augusta were there most of the time and this day was no different.

Sirius, on the other hand, was either in the house in little Hanglton or lying in bed until late in the afternoon.

Minerva who would normally be the one who left early that morning to make sure everything would be ready for next year. She together with Zanita had taken it upon themselves to make sure that next year would be ready before the next school year would begin. This time, however, she had stayed behind. Harry had asked her to do so and she was a little fearful about it.

It was during the breakfast Harry suddenly stopped eating and turned to his grandmother. With a painful expression on his face, he gave a deep sigh. "Grandmother do you remember when I told you in a thought that there was more going on with Albus then we thought".

Minerva nodded as she laid down her utensils. She could clearly remember the thought she had heard but also the way he had thought it. It told her that it was something really big and that she wouldn't be happy.

Flashback.

^Grandmother, please be careful with Albus. I have finally got an answer to something I had been wondering and it tells me that Albus has done more than the things we know now. I will tell it all tonight but I can tell you that Bella and I don't like it at all^.

End Flashback.

"Well on that day we went to visit Bellatrix in Azkaban. It was there that I asked a question that had been bugging me from the day you and mom showed us the place my parents had been hiding. It was there that you told us that the house was placed under the fidelius charme".

Minerva gave him a questioning look. She could remember the day she took them to the house but did not understand the thing he had seen what she hadn't seen.

"Well, that day in Azkaban I asked Bellatrix what that charm really did. She told me that you could hide literally everything you want. With something small, you could be the secret keeper. But if you wanted to hide something big, then you would need another person. My parents took a friend whom they trusted". Harry didn't need to say who it was because everyone knew the name. "Now the thing I wanted to know was, what it would take to break the charm".

Both Augusta and Isabella just looked at Harry with some doubt. They knew what the purpose of the spell was but didn't know what Harry meant when he said it.

The one who did understand it was Minerva. "That, bastard," she said as her eyes turned into fury.

Harry heard the rumbling in the mind of his grandmother. "Yes, grandmother that is what I thought to".

"What are you two talking about," Augusta asked as she felt the magic increase from the both of them.

"Tell them, Harry" Minerva told him clearly.

"Well the night my Parents went into hiding Albus was the one who placed the fidelius charme on the house and they took Peter as secret keeper. Now the purpose of the charm is to hide the object of the thing in question. Albus hid the whole house whit Peter as the secret keeper".

Isabella was still unknown at what Harry was telling but Augusta started to realize what he was trying to say. "No, he didn't".

Harry nodded to Augusta and went on. "The charm ends when the secret keeper dies or when the caster cancels the spell. But Peter is still alive so the secret is still a secret. Now we come to the problem. Peter is still alive and the secret is still a secret. So everyone who came with us the last time should not have seen the house, yet we all did. Voldemort could see it because Peter told him the secret. But why could we".

"Well, Albus canceled the charm," Isabella told him. I think that is the only explanation".

Harry looked at his mom. "And that is where the problem is. Voldemort came and killed my parents. He knew the secret from Peter so he could see the house". Harry stood and sat down next to his grandmother. Voldemort had killed them and I stopped Voldemort all thanks to the protection of my mother".

Minerva sniffed and took her cub into her arms.

"The things that happened next was Sirius who found them. He knew the secret so it was easy for him to find them. But now is the one thing that isn't right. The next person who came was Hagrid. He didn't know the secret but he still saw the house. He even told me that Albus told him where it was. How could Albus have told him that? Did he cancel the charm the moment my parents were dead, or did he make himself the secret keeper? The one thing I found out from Bellatrix makes me think that Albus never placed the charm. Bellatrix had told me that she overheard Voldemort telling Peter thanks and that he was going to take care of the Potters. She told me that she never heard the secret but she still followed him to prevent him from it if she could. But the moment that she came to the house she could see that Voldemort was already inside".

"But she wasn't told the secret" Isabella screamed. "Oo Shit, that bastard never did the charm. They had been sitting ducks from the moment they entered that house".

"Yes mom, Bellatrix saw almost everything. She never saw Voldemort leaving the house but she did see Sirius entering it. She heard him screaming no and saw him coming from the house with me. He was standing in the doorway when Hagrid came and took me away. It was after Hagrid left that Sirius went after Peter. Bellatrix who was released from the imperious curse at that moment just stayed there looking at the house. It was half an hour after Sirius left that she saw Albus with some Aurors standing there looking around".

It was now that the most of them understood that Albus never placed the charm on the house. Only Ginny and Astoria didn't quite understand why everybody got so mad.

"So it all comes down to this" Harry went on. "Either Peter was running around telling everybody the secret. Something we know isn't true. Secondly, Peter was there with Voldemort and got killed. Again something that isn't true because We have seen him and on the day many Aurors went to the house. Where the ministry claimed it for themselves. The third and last explanation is that Albus had cleared the spell on the house without them knowing it. But because they knew the secret they never suspect the charm to be gone. A simple ward can give you the feeling of said charm. Albus removing the charm so that Voldemort or anyone ells could attack whenever they wanted. Or he removed it straight after the attack knowing exactly when the attack had happened. If he didn't then the house would still have been hidden and we would have never seen or found it".

"I'm going to strangle him with his own beard. He knew it all along. He. He helped them die. I.. I'm. I'm going to kill him now" and Minerva stood up making her way to the floo.

She was stopped at the door by Bella, Daphne, and Harry. "Aunt Mini stop" Bella screamed at her. "We have to tell it all to aunt Amelia. He has done more than we know. Yes, he is responsible for the death of Lily and James. So he also wanted Harry to die, but if he did why didn't he kill Harry later on. He was the only one who knew where he was. So why didn't he and why does he want to keep everyone away from Harry. What ells has he done" Bella asked?

Daphne Listened and took over from Bella. "We have to find it all out, and we have to take it all to the day he faces his faults in the Wizengamot. There and only there can we make him bleed. If we do it now than we will be seen as the murderers of the great Albus flipping Dumbledore".

Minerva felt her anger fade away as the tears started to build up in her eyes. "But Lily and James" and she slowly lowered herself to the ground.

All three of the kids wrapped their arms around the waist of Minerva just too comforting her the best they could while they went down with her.

"I will go to the ministry and tell Amelia, then I will go to little Hangelton where I will inform Andromeda and Sirius about it," Augusta said as she turned away but stopped when she heard the next question Isabella asked.

"Harry why and how did you come to all of this".

Harry looked at his mom and then at Bella and Daphne. They nodded and Harry knew he had to tell them their suspicions. He then looked over at all his other friends and gestured with his head that they would go to the other room where the painting of his parents hung so they to could listen in. So they guided Minerva to a seat where Bella and Daphne stayed next to her.

Harry took a chair near the painting of his mum and dad and started as he saw Augusta and Isabella take another seat. "Well, We". And he indicated his friends. "Had a long talk about it a couple of weeks ago".

"You are all talking way too much" Isabella grumbled, which was answered with a satisfied smile from the friends.

"We don't know why Albus has a fixation with me but it is not me especially. We think it started way before that maybe even with my grandmother".

"Me, why me," Minerva asked surprised.

"Harry gave her a sad look. "We do not know if it's you, my grandfather, or even before that but as far as we can tell it started there. He took my mother from you. I wasn't even born yet so there was another reason for it but we don't know what. With me, he did the same. He took me away and placed me in a place where he wanted me to be. We are of some use to him but we can't figure out what it is. We also find it curious that he is holding every position of authority. Like the headmaster of Hogwarts the chief warlock and the representative of Britain for the I.C.W".

Augusta nodded and got back to her feet. "I don't know what to say but you all have things I have to think about. I will tell it all to Amelia and then after I have been with Sirius and Andromeda I will go back to see if I can find some sort of connection why he has all of those positions".

It was then that Augusta left and everyone went back to the order of the day meaning they would be having fun.

*#*

Finally, the day of the final had arrived. Minerva was standing in the hallway saying her goodbyes to her grandson and his friends. Minerva was going to the final as representative from Hogwarts. While David and Augusta went as the representatives from the Wizengamot form the gray side that was or the neutral.

With a final hug and a kiss, the three of them left Potter castle leaving the friends standing in the doorway. It was right after that that Arabella and Remus left to work in her shop and Sirius left to go stand guard with Andromeda.

Only Isabella and Tonks stayed behind to keep the kids' company. Tonks had to go to Diagonally to keep guard but that was later in the evening. It was something that was ordered by Minister bumble. In his all mighty wisdom he knew that when everyone was looking at the final, that Diagonally would be the main target for many criminals. And a hand full of Aurors would be enough so Tonks had to be there with almost all of the Aurors that were on duty tonight.

To not waste most of the afternoon, Isabella and Tonks took them all for a movie. After it, they went to an Italian restaurant to get a big stack of pizzas. That would be their dinner for that night just because Ginny and Astoria loved them from the day Harry had shown it to them. So at eight in the evening, they were all sitting around the wireless listening to the match that was about to start.

When Krum caught the snitch after almost three full hours of excitement, as Ireland won the match. The Potter castle was hosting a small party., a party that was ended with a sleepover in the middle of the room. Hermione and Neville were taking a spot to the side lying close to each other. Just like Harry, Be room. Susan, Astoria, and Ginny went to a corner but weren't as close as the others.

*#*

Augusta and Minerva had just said goodbye to the foreign guests and were walking down to their appointed tent. It was in that tent that they disillusioned themselves and walked down to another tent, a tent that was taken along on the recommendation of Harry. Well, actually he stood on it and wanted to make sure that they weren't in a place that Lucius knew. It was in that tent that the lady's lowered themselves into two chairs with a deep sigh as David went to get them some drinks.

"It was an eventful night, wasn't it?" David said as he too lowered himself into a chair. When he got the drinks he went around the tent Looking for anything that could be wrong but he had found nothing.

Both Augusta and Minerva were nodding while they took sips from their drinks. It was Augusta that broke the silents. "I have to be honest but I'm sorry that the kids weren't here tonight. But then again if Lucius is planning something then I'm happy they aren't here".

Minerva smiled and looked at the ceiling of the tent. "You know, Last week I had a talk with Harry, He told me that it would be great if you all were really living with us. You already have a room but I think he was even planning on giving you all a piece of land to build a house" Minerva told them as she gave them another smile.

"I think Isabella would love it," David told her.

"So would Neville he told". But Augusta never got to finish her thought because Amalia walked into the tent, where she took of the invisibility cloak of Harry. "I´m not really sure but I think that Narcissa can be right about tonight. There is an atmosphere hanging on the campsite that is telling me that we aren't going to like it" Amelia told them. "I have been looking around and it is clear that the death eaters are gathering in the tent of Lucius. It is the ones who escaped Azkaban just because Fudge believed them when they said they were imperious" Amelia said with disgust in her voice.

Amelia sat down and waited for what was to come. It was after twenty minutes that Amelia got back to her feet. "I'm sorry but Fudge ordered us to escort him to the exit. Something about his safety".

So Amelia left the tent and took all of her Aurors the help Fudge home. She hat left only for a minute or five when there was an enormous explosion. An explosion that wasn't that far away. So with raised wands, Minerva, Augusta, and David stepped outside of their tent and looked around to where the explosion had come from.

*#*

In Potter castle, it had become deathly silent. Isabella was sitting in the side room with Remus and Arabella. They had decided to wait until deep into the night just to be sure that nothing had happened after the final was done. At three in the morning, Isabella got up and walked down to the other room to check up on the kids. As she let her eyes go through the room she had to smile. Harry was lying on his back with both hands holding the hands of Daphne and Bella. Both Bella and Daphne were holding each other's hand on top of the chest of Harry.

On the side were Hermione and Neville, they too were holding hands in their sleep. As her eyes drifted to the corner she saw Astoria lying with Ginny and Susan. Her brow went up to her hairline as her mind went a specific way.

^Merlin, what do I do now^ sounded the voice of Minerva in the mind of Harry.

"GRANDMOTHER" Harry screamed as he sat straight up. He slammed his hand to his side. He screamed again for his grandmother before he screamed for her in his mind. ^Grandmother, what is happening, why are you hurt^.

Both Bella and Daphne looked at him as they started to gather their clothes as they started to get dress.

^Grandmother, talk to me, what is happening over there^ Harry asked as he was slamming his hand on more and more placed on his body. He felt something on his arm and saw it getting red.

^Harry not now, we are being attacked and I have to help a lot of people. David, Augusta and Are doing all we can^ Minerva thought back.

Harry jumped to his feet and started to dress. Bella and Daphne saw it and grabbed their wands from the table as Bella held out the wand for Harry.

^Grandmother, I'm coming with Bella and Daphne^. "Okay we are going and you all know what to do when we are away. I think it will only take ten minutes before others will come".

^No, Harry you stay there, we got this^ Minerva thought back.

What are you all thinking about" Isabella screamed at the friends who were clearly ignoring her?

The scream from Isabella resulted in Arabella and Remus running into the room. And just when they entered, Harry, Bella and Daphne apparated away".

At first, the three adults were just gaping at the scene before they really realized that Harry, Bella, and Daphne had disappeared. Isabella was the first one to open her mouth but there wasn't any sound coming from it. Susan, Hermione, and Neville were already running in and out of the room.

Susan was telling Snot, Mini, and Maxi what they had to do. Snot disappeared into nothingness while Mini started to snap her fingers while she was clearing the space.

While Maxi appeared next to Neville who was standing with Arabella. "May we use the potions you have in the storeroom and the store?" Neville asked her.

The only thing Arabella could do was give a sharp nod and before she knew it Maxi came back with a big heap of potion bottles that Hermione started to arrange on a shelve in the back of the room. To Arabella, it looked like Maxi had brought the whole store.

*#*

Minerva was the first one who had stepped out of the tent and looked around. At first, she didn't see anything but when she looked at the spot where they had to stay at first she saw a big pile of ashes. Those ashes had been the tent they were supposed to stay in and it was clear to her that if they had they wouldn't have been around any longer.

It was only a few feet away that she saw about five wizards standing around the ashes that had been their tent. Those wizards were wearing long black robes and white death masks. Then one of the mask men turned around and screamed. "He, they weren't in the tent, they are over there".

David was the first to react and throw a stunner at them. It was that stunner that brought both Minerva and Augusta out of their thoughts and they to started to throw curses at the death eaters who started to curse everything and anything they saw.

"Drive them away so that the people can find their way over to the forest" David called out as he started to step to the left to get out of the way of a red curse that almost hid him.

Minerva and Augusta nodded and started to drive the death eaters back as far as they could. The barrage of spells that was thrown at the death eaters had them stumble back. It was the one thing they hadn't count on but it was only short lived as they started to fight back.

As Minerva and Augusta were circling around them the death eaters started to get more and more aggressive. Augusta was hit and stumbled a little bit. It was enough for the death eaters to get the upper hand back as they started to throw more and more deathly curses at them.

David who stood at the other side looked at the way Minerva and Augusta were fighting. At first, he thought that the old battle ax Augusta got her name from the way she was a powerhouse in the Wizengamot. Now, however, he could see that she got it from her fighting style. Sure both Minerva and Augusta were slower and not as agile as they use to be because of their age. But they were still a handful for the death eaters. It did make him wonder where Amelia was and why there hadn't been an Auror that came to help them.

Amelia who was leading Fudge back to the estrange was oblivious of what was happening back at the campsite. It was when they were near the entrance when they all heard a big explosion. Amelia turned around and snapped at the three Aurors behind her to get back there. She Didn't have to know what was happening because she already had a clue about it and her thoughts weren't that good. The first thing she thought was that Lucius had played them like fools. He obviously knew that every Auror would be escorting Fudge home so they had all the time in the world to play havoc.

Amelia turned back to Fudge. "You get the hell out of here and If I find out you have anything to do with this I will personally feed you to a Dementor". She got a small smile as she saw Fudge making a run for it. The next thing she did was to cast a Patronus to Tonks ordering all the Aurors back to the campsite. It was then that she herself started to get back to the fight that was clearly taking place.

Most of the wizards and witches were making their way up to the mountain, while Minerva, Augusta, and David had been driven back to the edge of the forest still holding the death eaters back as best as they could. At a clearing, a little bit into the forest it looked like David, Minerva, and Augusta were back on top. They had them on the defense and it looked like they could win it, that was until Augusta was struck by a spell. She slumped down and was immediately pulled into the forest by some brave Wizard that had been watching the fight.

Minerva and David were now left alone to defend the visitors from the death eaters. And the numbers were taking their toll on them. It was not long after that, that David was hit by another curse. He had taken many but this had been the one that brought him down.

Minerva who saw him go down rushed to his side just to protect him from further harm. She was all alone but was happy she saw that David was still breathing and she had to get him out of here one way or another. As she stepped to the left to avoid a curse she hadn't seen the other curse that hit her side. ^Merlin, what do I do now^ she thought as she placed a hand on her side.

^Grandmother, what is happening, why are you hurt^ sounded the voice of Harry in her mind. She could not answer him so she ignored him to keep on fighting. ^Grandmother, talk to me, what is happening over there^ sounded his voice a little distressed.

^Harry not now, we are being attacked and I have to help a lot of people. David, Augusta and Are doing all we can^ She didn't have the heart to tell him that she was all alone so she just lied to him the best she could. The last thing she wanted was her cub coming to help her and she knew he would if he heard that she was all alone.

^Grandmother, I'm coming with Bella and Daphne^ she heard again.

^No, Harry you stay there, we got this^ Minerva thought back but she knew that she was thinking to deaf ears. As she gazed back at the body of David she saw that someone was pulling David into the forest.

^No Harry Don't^ she thought for a second time but before she was finished with that thought he was standing next to her waving his wand around, throwing curses at everything with a mask.

Minerva could not help herself but she had to smile. Next to him was Bella and she was just as vicious as her grandson. She never wanted them here but having them helping her was the one thing she needed.

Daphne was the only one who wasn't throwing any curse. She went to Minerva and gave her a pepper up potion which she downed immediately. Daphne smiled and went on to her father she saw lying a couple of meters into the forest. As she kneeled next to him she saw him breathing. It was a good sign and she had to act fast. As she looked around she saw five other people with scrapes and cuts on their bodies. She took a shoelace out of her pocket and called the people to her. "You five take this" and she handed them the string. "Activate," She said and looked on as they disappeared. She immediately got back to her feet and went over to six other people and handed them another shoelace. And so on and so on.

Minerva pulled her eyes away from Daphne and went back to fight side by side with Bella and her cub. They were now taking the fight back and got the death eaters to a standstill. Suddenly she saw a group of people coming from the side and she instantly knew who they were. "We have to protect them at all cost" she screamed at Harry and Bella. "That is the minister of France, his wife, and his daughters".

Bella and Harry nodded and went over to defending them and keeping the death eaters at bay.

The France minister that was already defending his family as he was leading them up the hill and into the forest, said something as he turned and went to help Minerva as he looked strangely at the two children fighting like they had done before.

"POTTER" was shouted from the left. Everyone looked while they were still hurtling curse after curse.

Bella saw the man and threw a tripping curse at him. They saw him fall and his masked slipped from his face.

"Lucius" Harry screamed.

Everyone stopped and looked at Lucius who was scrambling back to his feet. Lucius took that moment to sent a sickly red spell to the wife of the France minister.

Minerva didn't hesitate and jumped in front of the curse.

The curse hit her right in the middle of her chest and she was flung backward's so fast she hit her head hard against a tree.

What followed was a deathly silence that seemed to go on and on as they all saw Minerva slump down to the ground. Most of the death eaters had her as a Professor and that entitled her to a little respect.

"O, SHIT" sounded the voice of Lucius which broke the silence.

Most of the death eaters were looking at him as he was starting to step back just before he turned around and started to run. "Trust me, we have to get out of here. I have hit the wrong witch and if we don't then we are going to pay for it" Lucius screamed as his voice started to fade away.

Bella who had seen the whole thing started to pull the France minister to Minerva. As she looked from the corner of her eye she saw Daphne already being there. She gazed back at Harry and pulled a little harder at the arm of the minister.

The minister was still pulling back. "Wait, Wait we 'ave to 'elp that boy, there are too many of them," the minister said as his accent was starting to shine through.

"Belief me minister, you do not want to be between that boy and the death eaters at this moment," Bella told him as she pulled a little harder.

"Gran… Grannma… Granmother…. ….LUCIUS" Harry screamed.

Harry who had been looking at the spot where Minerva had gone down turned on his heels and threw a cutting curse at the head of Lucius. Who just ducked out of the way. It was then that he heard a pop that told him that everyone except Bella and Daphne had popped away.

It was now that Harry started to step towards the death eaters who were hiding behind the trees. He was throwing cutting curse after cutting curse. And most of them were directed at Lucius.

Lucius jumped from one tree to the other.

"Lucius, stay still you coward" and Harry threw another cutting curse as he pushed his magic into it. He heard Lucius port keyed out just before the curse hit the tree.

There wasn't a death eater that believed the thing they saw when the tree snapped in half with a perfect cut.

Amelia was at the edge of the forest and started to make her way up to the fight. She had been on her way and had to curse at a lot of her Aurors because they were nowhere near the fighting. She berated them and made them walk with her as she went on. She was heading into the forest and heard the sounds of people port key away. As she rounded another group of trees she saw a death eater port key out and frowned. Death eaters never port key out unless they killed the target they wanted to kill, she thought.

She fastened her pace as she made her way up the hill with Tonks next to her who had just arrived. She had been looking for the fighting when she saw her boss running up the hill.

The heartbeat of Amelia went faster and faster as she went on. She was afraid of what she would find when she got there but still wanted to know. It was then that someone screamed something. She didn't know what it was until she saw the death skull floating high in the sky. She walked on to a clearing where she saw a body lying on the ground. Next to the bode were Bella and Daphne and her breath got stuck in her throat. The body could only belong to one person and all she could say was "NO".

A/N: This was it for this time, see you all in two weeks.
