Chapter 4

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter

Harry was on his hands and knees, weeding the garden behind the Dursley's house, when he heard the familiar hoot of an owl. Turing and looking over his shoulder he spotted a snowy white owl flying towards him. A moment later Hedwig had landed beside him and held out her leg which had a return message from Elektra tied to it. Harry quickly wiped the dirt off his hands and untied the parchment. Hedwig affectionately nipped at his fingers before flying back to her cage in Harry's room. Harry unfolded the message and quickly scanned his sister's note.

'Harry

Azrael and I are okay. The Pride was attacked by Death Eaters, but we made it out. We're hiding in a forest right now trying to make our way to you. We should show up soon. Don't worry, everything's okay.

Your sister

Elektra'

Harry released a breath he didn't know he was holding as he reread his sisters message. They were okay. His siblings were on their way here. He was worried about the attack on their Pride by the Death Eaters, but since Elektra said they were okay and not to worry he wouldn't. He just hoped they got here soon and without anymore problems. Folding the note and stuffing it in his pocket he went back to working on his chores, all the while thinking of his siblings on their way here.

Harry Potter blinked sleepily around his room, wondering what had woke him. Then he heard a noise at his window. He quickly got up and grabbed his wand, just in case. He pulled back the old curtains and peered out into the darkness only to jump back as something hit his window. He squinted down into the yard in the direction he thought the small stone had come from. He blinked in surprise as he saw a familiar looking girl waving at him from the shadows under a tree in the yard. Realizing who it was he quietly made his way downstairs to the backdoor. Waiting a moment to make sure the Dursley's were still asleep he unlocked the door and opened it to reveal his baby sister. It was the first time Harry had ever actually seen his sister that he could remember.

As he followed her outside he took stoke of her apparent injuries. She was limping and there was a large gash on her right leg and a small one on her forehead. Harry stopped in surprise as he looked at the battered figure of his younger brother collapsed at the base of the tree. Elektra grabbed one of his arms as Harry grabbed the other and they moved him into the house. After Harry had locked the door again they moved Azrael to Harry's room and laid him on the bed. Harry stepped back and observed his two siblings. Elektra's reply to his note earlier had been very simple and now he saw why. Both were sporting various wounds with Azrael looking like he had taken the brunt of everything. Harry knew there was nothing in the house that would help his siblings and he couldn't do any healing charms without alerting the Ministry and getting expelled.

"Come on, we'll worry about everything after we all get some rest." Elektra told him as she turned and grabbed his hand, pulling him towards the small bed. Something he noticed all three had in common was their small size. They moved Azrael next to the wall and Harry climbed in next to him while Lilith transformed and curled up at their feet.

"No!" Elektra froze as she heard that grief-stricken scream . It was her adopted mother. Pandora's, scream. She quickly turned and spotted her. Pandora was kneeling on the ground with something, no, someone in her arms. Elektra stepped forward and froze when the clouds moved from in front of the moon, illuminating the area. In Pandora's arms was Dora, Pandora's six year old daughter. The little girl was dead. Then two of the masked men grabbed Pandora and pulled her away. Elektra stepped forward to stop them but was grabbed from behind by another masked figure.

"'Ello little Potter." An insane sounding female voice said into her ear. Elektra froze. No. It couldn't be. She wouldn't. The thoughts flew through Elektra's mind as she turned and looked at her brother's clearly insane mother Bella.

Bellatrix raised her wand and spoke a spell. Just before the last word fell from Bella's lips she was tackled to the side, causing the spell to miss, her mask fell off and looked up into the horrified face of her only child, her baby boy.

Azrael blinked down at the woman who had just been attacking his little sister.

"... Mum..." Azrael breathed in shock.

Bella quickly pushed the boy off her and got to her feet, wand pointed at the shocked boy.

"I'm sorry Salem, but this is war. Join my Lord and you shall be spared." Bella informed her son.

Azrael blinked and shook himself from his shock as his mothers words and actions registered. His mother was threatening him!

"Never would I join that mad man!" Azrael spat angrily.

"So be it." Bellatrix told him before opening her mouth to say a spell. Before the first word left her mouth she collapsed, unconscious, revealing Elektra behind her with a large rock.

"Never threaten my brother." Elektra informed the unconscious woman.

Azrael gave her a quick relieved smile before grabbing her hand and pulling her through the chaotic battleground their home had become. They tried hard not to notice the bodies littering the ground, but they still noticed some like the body of the leader of the pride and his son. They also noticed the large body of a liger before they were once again confronted by a masked man blocking their escape.

Elektra jerked awake as her dream self was jerked back by Azrael. She blinked to clear her vision and discovered she was still in her Felidae form, but Harry wasn't in the room and she was stretched out beside Azrael in the bed. She sat up just as Harry opened the door and walked into the bedroom. Elektra looked over at the clock and saw that it was ten in the morning.

"The Dursley's are gone. They won't be back until tonight, so we have some time." Harry informed her as he walked over and looked at Azrael who didn't look much better than he did last night.

"Good. We need to get somewhere safe as soon as possible and somewhere where we can get Azrael healed." Elektra told him, also looking over at Azrael. "Any ideas?" She asked looking back at Harry. He nodded, tearing his eyes from his brothers battered form to his sisters face.

"We can take the Knight Bus to the Leaky Cauldron and either brew the potions to heal him ourselves or contact Madame Pomfrey." Harry suggested. Elektra nodded.

"That's a good idea. How long will it take you to pack? Will your, our, relatives mind?" Elektra asked as she stood, ready to help him pack so they could leave sooner. Harry walked over to his desk and opened the drawer.

"They won't mind. I'll leave a note so if anyone from the Order comes to check on me won't worry. I'll get my trunk from the cupboard and be right back." Harry told her as he pulled something she couldn't see from the drawer and left the room. She listened to the sound of his feet hitting the steps as he went downstairs. Elektra looked over at Azrael who shifted and let out a groan of pain. She sat by him again and ran her hands through his hair.

"You'll be better soon, brother. Harry and I will take care of you." Elektra soothed him as she waited for Harry.
