Unknown Surroundings
James Potter sat on his stone floor after a very intense torture, and not having seen Gabrielle for several days. He was starting to long more and more for his parents and this pain muffled all hunger pains he had. It was then the door creaked open and Gabrielle tip toed in. She now had dirty hair and ripped clothes.
"James listen to me, I don't have much time! I have found my escape but I am unable to take you with me dear friend. I will explain soon. Just please wait. I have my time turner and will bring help." She placed the big chunk of bread into his hands and the watered milk on the blanket.
James sat shocked, but after a few minutes he realised the things she had said and began crying with happiness.
James' Room
Ginny threw herself on her sons bed, crying onto the stuffed dragon, and hugging James' toy broom stick.
It was then, as Ginny stared at the floor, that Ginny saw a little glimmer under the waste paper bin. She got up, wiped away her tears, and picked up a few broken, copper fragments, which was covered in dust.
"Is - is this a time turner?" Ginny said aloud, just as Teddy burst into the room.
"Gi- Ginny! It's Fleur, she's in the living room!" Teddy said, out of breath. Ginny stuffed the time turner into her pocket and ran downstairs. In her living room was a sobbing Fleur and all her family and the Weasley's.
"Children, upstairs, please!" Ginny said pushing Albus and Lily out of the room. All Fleur's family was sobbing their hearts out and Ginny turned to Ron for answers.
"Ginny, it's Gabrielle, she's missing! And they left the same note they left for you and Harry!" Ron said.
"The evidence has been turned over to our case, and now we have a missing woman and child." Harry said with glassy eyes. "They sent me home early to tell you. They told us to all come here for a few hours until they secure the perimeter."
As Mrs Weasley got to work making tea and sandwiches, Ginny pulled Harry to the side.
"What is it Ginny?" Harry said biting his nail.
"Harry, I found this in James' room, is it really what I think it is?" Ginny handed Harry the fragments, and Harry's eyes widened.
"If this is what we think it is, and it really is from the kidnapper, then we will have James back sooner then we think!" Harry ran out to the fireplace, with a big grin on his pale face. Ginny ran after him and screamed for the Ministry.
The Ministry
"AMBERHALL! AMBERHALL! LOOK! WE HAVE IT! It's a time turner Ginny found in James' room!"
"Mr Potter, show me this." Amberhall grabbed the fragments and sat at his desk. He grabbed the magical spy glass on his bookshelf above his desk and started examining it.
A few hours passed and Ginny was starting to get anxious.
"Don't worry so, here." Harry handed Ginny a glass of pumpkin juice. By this stage they were home and waiting for had put the kids to bed, and had a little cry with Harry while waiting in their bedroom.
"Ginny? Harry?" Amberhall said in a soft voice, emerging from the fireplace. We have news. Gabrielle has been found, in an alleyway in Portugal. apparently she time travelled and was chased down till she apparated. But she knows where James is."
"WHERE IS MY SON!" Harry screamed at the detective.
"He is in Malfoy Manor, 1876."
