"What does it say?"

Fabian looked at the note. "She is asking for a chance to speak to me. She knows her husband and children have betrayed her. She wants the truth."

Regulus rested a hand on his arm. "You know you're sister better then anyone. Do you think she might be telling the truth?'

Fabian shrugged. "The Molly I knew and loved I would say yes but she has changed so much. I don't really know her. What she has done proves that."

Reg tried to reassure him. "You know she was led astray by Albus as most were. And as the twins said, she has mourned you for so long."

Fabian nodded. "Fred said she joined the fight the second time to avenge us and dad. I think we can trust her, I hope we can trust her."

Reg held him. "We'll send word to Severus and Harry. Let them know what is going on. Maybe is she took an oath on her powers, we could let her in."

Fabian agreed. "I don't know if she would but if she agreed we could at least trust she couldn't ever reveal our secrets to anyone, or physically hurt Harry."

Reg shook his head. "Molly owes a blood debt to Harry. I actually think her whole family does but from what you have said of your sister, I assume she would honour it."

Fabian was surprised. "A blood debt?"

He nodded. "Harry has saved your life as well as her daughter and her husband. The others may step all over it, but I think Molly might hold to tradition."

Fabian grabbed parchment. "I'll send word to Grimmauld place and find out what those two think. I hope she is telling the truth. I want Molly to be in my life."

Reg watched as he wrote the note. "I know you do. I know Harry would like it as well. I pray for both your sakes that this might work out as you hope it does."

Fabian squeezed his husband's hand. "Don't worry I will try not to get my hopes up to high. I know how unlikely it is that this might work out in the end."

Reg took the letter to send. "Don't give up all hope. If she helped you find Harry and has now written, there is a good chance she is telling the truth."

Fabian rubbed his belly. "You know children change you. The betrayal of Percy and the others will hurt but she'll be gaining the others back at the same time."

Reg put his hand to the belly where his daughter or niece had just kicked. "Maybe these two little gifts can work a miracle. Molly's love of family may win through."

Fabian sighed. "She loves Arthur but if she learns he knowingly was involved with Albus who helped kill our dad and Gideon, I'd hate to be Arthur."

Reg was surprised. "Did Albus have them killed? And do you really think Arthur knew about it all along?"

Fabian nodded. "I learned as a prisoner that Albus had staged both murders to look like Voldemort. Arthur has been on his side all along, he was always aware."

Reg hadn't guessed how far Arthur's betrayal went. "He has known Dumbledore was dark for that long? I'd be surprised if Molly didn't kill him when she learned."

Fabian actually smiled. "Even though she was always over looked as a girl, Molly is truly my sister. If she learns what Arthur did, I'd be worried for his life."

Reg stood. "I am going to go and send this with an owl. They should have it by morning and we should know soon enough what is happening."

Fabian nodded. "I would send word to Molly but I'm worried that it might be intercepted even with our password. I will wait until we hear from Harry and Sev."

Regulus bent down to kiss him. "Go to bed please; you and our daughter and niece need your rest. There will be plenty of time to worry in the morning."

Fabian returned the kiss and got up to head towards bed. "You're right. And after reading the note my mind is a bit more settled. Perhaps I can sleep now."

Regulus left the room concerned that his husband had not been getting enough rest for his sake and the babies, hoping his husband would sleep without him having to give him a sleeping draught again. He was relieved when he came back from the owlery and found his husband was asleep.

Harry woke again to the face of the little Grimmauld place house elf peering at him from the edge of the bed and groaned, still entwined with his husband after their last round of love making the night before.

"Kreacher, what are you doing in here just after dawn?" Harry asked.

Kreacher showed him a letter. "Letter came from master from masters Uncle. Kreacher thought master want to see it right away. Kreacher bring to master."

Harry was surprised and worried. "Thank you Kreacher. Can I have the letter and then can you please go down and bring us up some breakfast."

The little elf disappeared as Severus woke up. "What are you doing awake? The sun is barely up and we can't have been asleep very long."

Harry showed him the letter. "Kreacher said it was from my Uncle. We haven't heard from him since we came down. I'm worried about the baby."

Severus shot up next to him. "Read the letter. I know your uncles both well enough by now to know they wouldn't have sent a letter this early for nothing."

Harry read it and couldn't help but breath a sigh of relief. "The baby is okay. He got a letter from Molly." He explained what the rest of the letter said.

Severus was lost in thought for a bit. "I think Molly is probably genuine. Regulus has a good idea. If she will take a magic oath, we could bring her in."

Harry smiled slightly. "I know Bill and the others would be happy to have her on their side again and so would I. I'm glad my visit went well."

Severus shot him a look. "That doesn't excuse going off on your own, no matter how good the outcome might be in the end. Remember that."

Harry put his hands up in mock defence. "I remember. When can we go and see Molly and see if she will take the oath?"

Severus coughed. "We? There is no we. I will go. You will travel back to Prince Manor. We were planning on heading back tomorrow anyways."

Harry knew better then to argue with his husband. "And if she agrees to take the oath, then what?"

Severus looked up from the response he already started to pen. "Then I will bring her to Prince Manor for a proper reunion with you and her brother."

Harry nodded and thought of something. "We should contact her sons and let them know what is going on. If it works, they'll want to be there as well."

Severus shook his head. "Don't get their hopes up before we know what will happen. If it works we'll send word and they can come to Prince Manor."

Harry knew that made sense. "I guess. I mean I wouldn't want them to get their hopes up and then be hurt when she still sides with her husband."

Severus sent the owl off and then turned to Harry. "I need you to put all your memories into a pensive for me."

Harry blanched for he knew what memories his husband spoke of. "I can't. I can not relive those."

Severus shook his head. "Harry, if she is ever going to really understand, she needs to see it. I know it hurts, but it will be for the best."

Harry reluctantly agreed and after breakfast he sat in the drawing room with Susana and Luna by his side as he allowed his husband to extract the memories and place them in the old Black family pensieve they had found. He had shielded them away but even though it was painful to bring them out, once they were removed he knew he would not be bothered by them again.

Severus reached down to kiss him when he was done. "I know that was hard Harry, but it was for the best."

Harry tried to reassure him he wasn't about to break. "I know. I promise I can understand that. I just hope that it works."

Severus looked at the girls. "You two are heading back to school tomorrow?"

Susan nodded. "Yes. We really need to get back to our studies, including our extra ones on our powers."

Severus turned to his husband. "You'll leave tomorrow with them and head home to Prince Manor. You should work on your studies as well."

Harry smirked. "You think I'll be able to concentrate on them? Just get to Molly and try and bring her to us."

Severus nodded and he and Harry spent the rest of the day together working with the other two to see what progress all three of them had made. His uncle had been right, Harry had made a lot of progress with his fire, more then either of the girls had done with their skills but they were still moving along.

Fabian and Regulus were waiting in the library at Prince Manor when Harry came through the next day and seeing his Uncle carrying his baby he threw himself at the man, happy to see him but also grateful for the contact with his child, wishing again that she was inside of him though.

Fabian returned the hug. "I'm glad your husband decided it was worth a try. I just hope that my sister will come to her senses."

Harry nodded. "I hope so too. I know your nephews on our side would love to have her back. She always talked of you; I'd have thought this would be easier."

Fabian didn't. "She's been married to her husband for almost three decades now. Even when faced with the truth, it will be hard for her to see it."

Harry felt a pang for her. "She has always believed she was doing the right thing, unlike Arthur and the other three kids. I feel bad for what she faces now."

Regulus accepted a hug as well. "I know how hard it would be for you to share your memories of Percy with her but it'll help her understand even more."

Harry blanched at the memory of the pensieve. "It was bad but I know that it was needed and it will be worth it if Severus can bring her to our side."

Fabian made him sit. "We need to sit and wait now. But I think someone wants to say hi to her daddy."

Harry was shocked as his hand was put on the belly. "How do you know that is my daughter and not yours?"

Fabian shrugged. "I don't always but sometimes I get the sense of which one it is. Call it a father's intuition."

Harry marvelled at the feel of the tiny life moving under his hand and kept the tears at bay with a reminder one day he and Severus would have another and he'd carry his own child that time. He just hoped Severus would succeed in bringing Molly over to them.
