"What?" Harry said his eyes filling with rage.
He stepped out and marched upstairs to the main hall. Everyone followed in pursuit but it was unnaturally quiet.
"OK AMBERHALL! I KNOW YOU'RE THERE! COME OUT AND WE CAN FIGHT FOR MY SON!" Harry called out, his head pointing upwards, and shouting. He waited a minute, before Amberhall jumped down from a banister and landing on his feet.
"I think I like that deal, but let's raise the price, how about THREE of your children?!" At that moment Lily and Albus were raised down by chains from the ceiling, unconscious and bleeding.
"Amberhall?" Ginny said with tears in her eyes.
"MUMMY! HELP ME!" James called from the top of the stairs. He was in midair and being hoisted up by chains and rope. He was reaching out for Ginny and Harry and crying.
"JAMES!" Harry called, trying to run to him, but Amberhall pushed him back so hard that he slid across the ground.
"Now, now, manners Potter, I believe you promised me a battle?" Suddenly 40-50 death eaters jumped down for the banister and fired spells everywhere.
The fight was long, and many death eaters were knocked out, until it was only Amberhall left. The sight of James had put a sudden burst of rage in them all and they fought bravely, fighting off them all.
The Weasley's all tied them all up, and even locked Amberhall in a cage in the corner.
"JAMES?!" Ginny said running towards him. Harry began to, but thought it better to raise Lily and Albus down.
By the time they were down, James had run out of his mothers arms and was kneeling over Albus and Lily, crying on Lily and holding Albus' limp hand.
"Are they dead?!" James said between sniffs.
"No son, they will be fine, but come here." Harry engulfed him in a big hug and Ginny joined in.
"Daddy?" Lily whispered.
"LILY!" James said throwing his arms around her, then as Albus woke he hugged him too.
"I missed you all so much. I thought you had forgotten me!" James said, it was then Harry and Ginny saw the bags under his eyes and the tears on his pale, thing face, steak down his cheekbones.
"My baby boy, I would never forget you." Ginny said hugging him and crying.
"Just never do it again." Lily said which made them all laugh, as the Weasley's joined them.
They were soon home, having given all the death eaters over to Askaban, and Ginny was in the kitchen making chocolate pancakes, sausages, bacon, sandwiches, and Harry was making hot chocolate, as Albus, Lily and James all watched TV in the family room at the back.
"Kids? Dinner!" And she set them all out big servings of all James' favourite foods, and a happy smile came across her face as James followed his siblings for the first time in weeks.
"Thanks mummy." Lily said hugging her and Albus and James followed.
"What about dad!" Harry joked walking over with 3 mugs of hot chocolate.
"Thanks dad." James said running over and hugging him.
"Be careful, here take your hot chocolate before you make me spill it." James took it and sat down at the table.
As Ginny and Harry stared at the table the just smiled, grateful it was finally a full table, with all three of their children.
