Chapter 24: Greyback's Words

Draco and Hermione burst into Dumbledore's office. Blaize, Harry, Severus, and Van following behind them. Both, Draco and Hermione did a quick scan of the room. Looking for the blonde hair of their son. But, the only blonde hair they saw was Luna's and the slightly darker tint of Remus' hair.

"Where is he?" Hermione asked, a wide smile on her features.

Dumbledore gave Severus and Van a questioning look, "You didn't tell them?"

"They ran out of the room before we got to put another word in." Severus told the Headmaster.

Draco and Hermione both frowned, "What are you talking about?" Draco asked, "Did you find our son or not?"

"Well, you see Mr. Malfoy." Said a figure in the shadows. "We have found him, but yet haven't retrieved him."

"What do you mean?" Hermione asked, "And who the bloody hell are you?" The man stepped out of the shadows. Hermione gasped and Draco's eyes widened. "Greyback?" Hermione whispered.

"Nice seeing you again too Ms. Granger..."

"It's Mrs. Malfoy." Draco sneered at the werewolf.

"Oh? Sorry, for the lack of knowledge." Fenrir said sitting in a chair, looking at his fingers as if he were interested about his cuticles. "Been hiding and all. Haven't got caught up on the latest gossips just yet. Until, now. With your son missing and all. I didn't know it was young Malfoy's as well. Hm. Nobody fills me in." Greyback said slightly pouting.

Hermione looked to Dumbledore, "What. The bloody hell. Is going on here?" Hermione asked spacing her words.

Albus gave her a reassuring smile, "Well, Hermione. After Remus left Libya, him and Severus went and met off with Van in Romania to help him search. They came upon Mr. Greyback here. Hiding in a Vampire coven." Dumbledore looked to Fenrir, "Would you like to carry on?"

"I'd be delighted." Fenrir stated with a smile, showing his sharp looking teeth, "Well, I was staying with a Vampire coven as Albus just informed. It was the Coven of Marius, he let me in with open arms, even though I am a werewolf, but that doesn't matter. What matters is why I was hiding in the first place."

"Well, isn't that obvious." Draco said, "You didn't want to be caught by Ministry Auror's or better yet, members of the Order."

"Actually, your quite wrong, Young Malfoy." Fenrir said still smiling, "I was hiding from Voldemort." Everyone, except for Severus, Remus, Van, and Albus, looked at him with curiosity. "Not that I'm scared of the Dark Lord, but with Gods mixing in with the plans, makes a werewolf anxious. Especially with this Prophecy. Makes one think. Am I going to live? Will the Dark Lord spare me? Or will he only keep his precious heir and Second in Command?" Fenrir huffed.

"Heir? Second in Command? I thought you were his Second in Command when Lucius died?" Hermione said.

"Oh, I was. But, then Weasley came along." These words made Molly break into sobs. Fenrir just flashed a small smile; knowing that his words were what hurt her, "And about his heir. Your son fills that job."

Hermione's eyes widened, "No." She said shaking her head.

"Sorry, dear." Fenrir said looking back to his cuticles. "Well, anyways. I could smell your friends from a mile away. So, I made the decision that I'd tell them what I knew. Maybe they could stop the madness. Maybe I'd end up living once this was all over and done with."

"Could you perhaps stop talking about you living and start talking about where the hell my son is?" Draco asked through gritted teeth.

"Well, aren't we testy." Fenrir smiled. Draco leached out at him and Remus and Severus both caught a hold of Draco before he could do anything. "Ok, ok...I saw you're son a while back. Before I ran. He was held up in some place up in Latvia. Cute little bugger. Smiled a lot."

Hermione felt herself fall to the floor. Her head in her hands, tears running down her cheek. Draco shrugged out of Severus and Remus' grip and went to his wife. Enveloping her in his embrace.

"Hermione?" Kaytrina's voice rang. Hermione's head shot up, her tear struck face looking at Kaytrina's saddened one, "We're going for him tonight." She assured her.

Hermione stood up with the help of Draco, "I'm going." She said straightening her clothes.

"No!" Everyone said, except Fenrir, who was still admiring his cuticles.

"And why not?" She asked looking at them all with a glare.

"It's too dangerous." Remus said.

"I've been through dangerous situation before!" Hermione exclaimed.

"Yes, you have." Severus said, "But did any of those situation have Gods involved?"

"Who gives a werewolves arse about the Gods!" Hermione yelled, "Sorry, Remus." She said in a softer tone.

"What about me?" Fenrir asked, a little peeved that she hadn't apologized to him, "I mean it hurt me just as much. I might not be all into saving the world or what not, but still..." He babbled and everyone just ignored him.

"Hermione, your not going." Draco stated simply.

Hermione glared at him, "You can't tell me what to do." She told him, "I may be your wife, but you don't own me."

Draco sighed, "I know. I didn't say anything about owning you and I wouldn't wish... I don't want anything happening to you... I couldn't live if... I wouldn't be able to..." Draco stammered, "You're not going and that's final." He told her.

"He's my son!" Hermione yelled.

"He's mine as well, Hermione!" Draco yelled back, "But, if you go in and something happens to you... I wouldn't be able to live with myself. Would you like for Riddick to not have a Mother or a Father?!"

Hermione felt the tears streaming down her face, "I just want my son." She said sadly.

Draco's temper faded and he took Hermione into his arms, "I know, honey. I want him too. And I'll bring him back." He pulled back and looked at everyone, they were all staring at the floor, except Fenrir who stared at them amused, "We all will." He assured and kissed her lightly on the lips.

"When do you do the spell, Master?" Asked the red haired, freckle faced boy.

"So, eager to destroy." Voldemort smiled at his Second in Command and then looked down at the baby he was holding, "As soon as Hades sends us a sign, then we shall cast the spell and little Riddick here will join us, willingly." The Dark Lord smiled and his serpent tongue flashed out as he started to laugh.
