The Next Morning
Harry Potter woke up, dishevelled and tired, to running water and hair dryers. He opened his eyes after about 20 minutes and suddenly remembered the day before. He sat up suddenly and banged his head on Ginny's slated wall. He was rubbing his head and grumbling as Ginny walked out of the bathroom with dark circles under her eyes and a sleek pony tail down her back. She had on her clothes from the day before and had obviously been in the shower.
"Hello..." Ginny said starting to fold her pyjamas, and a ghostly edge to her voice.
"Ginny?" Harry said walking behind her and rubbing her shoulders. "You want to go downstairs?"
Ginny began to nod her head, with a tear rolling down her cheek.
On the way down the stairs they heard the front door open and Ginny looked up at Harry, then sprinted downstairs, and threw open the door. It was only 7:30 and already the whole family were up, and even Hermione had taken Lily and Albus over. Albus ran over to Harry and Lily to whine looking to be picked up. Harry balanced her on his waist and held Albus' hand.
"Hello Mrs Potter, I am here about your son James Sirius Potter." Ginny stepped aside and the man at the door walked in. He was followed by a few more men and women from the Ministry that Harry recognised from the department of Missing Wizard and Witches, and a few from the department of Underage Wizards and Witches.
"Hello Harry Potter, Arthur Weasley, and Percy. Now we need to speak with the parents alone." Everyone dispersed and Molly handed them all a coffee. Then Harry sat down next to Ginny holding her hand, and the men and women sat on the arm chairs.
"Now, this is obviously a very unfortunate situation, and it must be hard on you both. I cant begin to imagine what you are going through. My name is Dr Amberhall, and I will be the main Wizard on the case. We will be searching the surrounding towns and carefully analysing the note and evidence left, but all that we can confer is that it was a very powerful spell, most likely from a right handed witch or wizard, and they are probably not alone. Now, we need to be leaving, but Harry we would be very great full if you returned to work and accompanied Ronald Weasley in the investigation, I'm sure you would be up to finding James and we need you to give no interviews or pictures to journalists, or anyone out of this house for that matter, you can ask the whole family if you want, we would be grateful for the help. I hope to see you tomorrow in our department. We will update you daily and now we must go." The team all got up and flooed out. Harry and Ginny were left stunned by their brief appearance.
"I can't go into work! How could they think I would just leave you!" Harry said standing up.
"Harry we have to! I need to find my baby and they can help us! I will not let them turn him into- into- into a deatheater!" Ginny said standing up as well.
"Mum! Mum!" Ginny began to call from the living room, and the whole family soon came in.
"Ok, Harry and me are going to the department tomorrow and help them, who else will help?" Ginny said hands on hips.
"I will!"
"I will."
"Me too!"
Soon the whole family had joined in, but they crossed the line at the children.
"Sorry dears, I want to find James' as much as you, but I need to stay here with kids, I just don't feel safe with them at a babysitters, or even muggle school for that matter." Mrs Weasley said.
"Yeah, but no offence, but you might need some help mum." George said.
"I'll stay behind as well." Fleur said, and Percy seconded that.
