Lucius grabbed Severus. "Where is Harry?"
"He's gone." Severus said before passing out.
Lucius turned to the other man. "What is he talking about?"
Fabian quickly explained all that had happened. "My nephew sacrificed his life to ensure that we got out of there."
Lucius carried his old friend into the house. "We need to send a rescue party. They'll torture him. We need to get him back."
Fabian nodded. "But we don't know where they will take him. Albus won't be stupid enough to leave him at the manor."
Lucius turned to the other order members and told them to send word to everyone back on the island that they needed to find out where Harry was being kept, at all costs. He turned back to Fabian.
"You might be able to help us." Lucius said.
Fabian was shocked. "I have been in prison for years. I am no longer the person I once was. He died with Gideon."
Lucius took him by the arm. "Your nephew sacrificed himself for you and his Uncle Reg. Now come on, he needs your help."
Fabian nodded. "You're right. Gideon would never have wanted me to let Harry down. But how?"
"You have an inside person inside of the old order, someone very close to Albus. If anyone can tell us where he has Harry, it will be them." Lucius said.
Fabian shook his head. "I don't even know what members are still alive but I have never been close to any but my brother that were alive when I was caught."
"What about your sister?" Lucius asked.
Fabian smiled at the thought of her. "Molly. She's alive. And a member of the order? She never would have last time."
Lucius motioned him to sit. "Her and Arthur yes. Your nephews Bill and Charlie who you knew and the twins Fred and George who were born after your capture, are with us. Your sister and the others remain loyal to Albus."
Fabian was beginning to understand. "You want me to make an appearance from the dead and convince my sister to give you information."
Lucius nodded. "I'm not talking play ghost. Tell Molly the truth. Tell her that you have been alive and a prisoner all of this time."
Fabian wasn't convinced. "Surely if she is an ally of Albus' she won't care if I make a return."
A voice from the door answered. "My mother would be over the moon to know you're alive. She never stopped missing you."
Fabian stood to look at the new comer. "You're one of my nephews I know, but which one?"
Fred smiled. "Frederick Gideon Weasley named in honour of you when mum thought you died before we were born. My twin is George Fabian."
Fabian hugged him. "You know Molly was pregnant already with you last time I saw her. I knew you two would be the trouble makers, like me and your Uncle."
Fred smiled. "That we are. Now I need you to help us Uncle. Harry is a little brother to us. Please talk to mum. Even if it doesn't work, it's worth a try."
Fabian nodded. "I'll talk to my sister. I don't think it will work but I loved Molly dearly and I would like her to at least know I have been alive all of this time."
Lucius turned to him. "When you're done we will return you to Ireland where your very anxious husband has been waiting for seventeen years for your return."
Fabian looked at Severus. "He and harry told me Reg was alive but I didn't really believe it. Albus showed me the newspaper, he was killed."
Lucius laughed. "Coming from someone who just came back from the dead, I'm surprised you'd believe that. Reg is alive and sent Harry and Sev for you."
Fabian walked from the room with his nephew by his side. He would do this for Harry, his nephew via his husband as well by the sounds of it, from his sister who practically adopted the boy years ago before this whole mess, and then he would be reunited with his husband. He could have insisted on seeing Reg first but he knew he owed it to the incredibly brave young man who had got caught to rescue him, to see him returned home to his husband, safe and sound.

Molly Weasley was alone in the Burrow for Arthur was off on business for the order and the other members of the family were out for the day. She was baking a cake which always seemed to distract her, when she heard the door open.
"Your home early." She said turning around but when she saw who was at the door she dropped the pan.
"Hey Molly." Fabian said.
Molly couldn't believe it. Her little brother was alive and in her kitchen after seventeen years. "Fabian. Oh my Merlin, is it really you?"
He nodded and hugged her. "I have been a prisoner all of these years. I have recently been released and I had to come and see you."
Molly was sobbing. "Fabian, you were killed with Gideon. You died on me just weeks after father died."
He shook his head. "No, Albus captured me and has held me prisoner for years. He kept me from you and the family and from my husband as well."
Molly had gone white. "Albus? I knew about Sirius but this. He kept you locked up? How did you get out?"
He quickly explained what had taken place with Harry. "That's why I came, not just for you but to beg you for help in saving Harry from being tortured and killed."
Molly shook her head. "I can't. I can't betray Albus. He's the leader of the light. I can't."
Fabian held her. "He kept me and others prisoner over the years for his own case. He has let you think me dead. Please I owe Harry my life, help us."
Molly was fighting, trying to decide between her boss and her beloved brother. "He's being kept at Grindewald's old fortress in Bulgaria."
Fabian kissed her on the cheek. "Thank you Molly. I hope one day we will be fighting on the same side again. I love you."
He disappeared and returned to France where he found Severus conscious and all of the other members of the new order waiting to hear news. He told them what he had found out.
Severus stood. "We need to mount an attack and now. We need all of our allies. "
Lucius slowed him down. "We need to be careful or we will get him killed. We need time to work out a proper plan for this."
Severus shook him off. "My husband is a prisoner once again. We need to free him before he gets tortured into insanity like Frank and Alice, or worse."
They went into planning mod e with intention of striking just after dawn the next morning and freeing Harry, knowing it was the soonest they could get a plan into action. They knew as much as they wanted to rush in and free him before he suffered too much, they couldn't risk any more lives.
Fabian went over to Severus. "He'll survive. He's a strong young man from what I have seen. He'll stay strong for you until you free him."
Severus nodded. "You know you can leave. I know you've been waiting for so long to see your husband, go to Ireland and be with him."
Fabian shook his head. "I have waited seventeen years; I can wait two more days. I owe it to Harry and to my husband to go with you and free Harry.
