Jam-jam whimpered loudly as the plane shook and jerked roughly. He was clutching at Draco's torso and trying to hold back his sobs. The little boy had never been on a plane before and he didn't think that this 'turbulence' as Draco had called it, was normal. The plane would fall out of the sky if this didn't stop soon! Even Harry was a bit concerned. He had never been on a plane either and now, there was major turbulence and he was starting to lose his grip on Pyxis.
Draco held Harry and jam-jam close to his body as the plane continued to shake. He had felt his fair share of turbulence, but he had never felt turbulence this bad. He knew that this must be very scary for Harry and jam-jam, as they had never been on a plane before.
Pyxis let out a shrill wail and the other passengers on the plane looked on with growing annoyance as the baby refused to stop crying. Harry had fed him only 10 minutes ago and his diaper was changed just before that. There wasn't anything wrong per say, the tiny baby was just a bit afraid of the rough jostling the plane was going through.
"Would you just shut that child up?" a large gangly man hissed from across the isle. He had a rust red beard and a shiny bald head.
Harry shrunk under the man's scrutiny, pressing himself closer to Draco as Pyxis continued to bawl. Draco, however, was at his wits end. That man had no right to say anything to Harry and he was about to blow his top when a kind looking flight attendant rushed down the isle, carefully balancing himself against the chairs in the first class cabin.
"Good evening, sirs, but if I may, I can help you with your child." He said, his black hair was spiky and he had butterfly clips in his hair. He looked no more than 20 years old. His Japanese accent was thick. "I have three children with my husband, and we travel, so, um, the best way to calm your baby down is to try and sing to him or hold him tightly. Maybe let him drink some milk or water or suck on a toy. I find that this helps."
"Thank you, we'll do that." Draco said as he reached into Pyxis's food bag and pulled out his water bottle. He handed the bottle to Harry's waiting hand and Harry gently pried Pyxis's lips open around the nipple. Pyxis quieted slowly as Harry and Draco sang to both him and jam-jam, calming the two of them down. The flight attendant returned to his seat at the front of the plane and buckled back into the seat as the plane lurched foreword with great force. Jam-jam sobbed with earnest as he felt the plane falling. Draco was starting to get very scared. The plane was tipping and that was definitely not normal. Suddenly, the pilot's voice came over the PA and no-one was prepared to hear what he had just said.
"Greetings, passengers; this is your captain speaking. Please remain calm. We have lost one of our right engines and we will need to land in Afghanistan to repair and refuel. Please understand that there is currently political unrest in this area, and it is not safe to exit the designated area within the afghan international airport which your flight attendants will direct you to. We will be in Afghanistan for 2 – 5 days. If you need any type of toiletries, diapers or medications, please inform your flight attendants and they will assist you. We will be landing in 30 minutes, please buckle your seat belts. Thank you for your co-operation."
"ba'dray? Why do we have to stay in the airport? Why can't we go out?" jam-jam asked quietly from beside Draco, taking advantage of his newly corrected grammar. The plane had landed successfully, and the family was camped out in the airport for a while.
"There's fighting out side, honey. We have to stay here so we're safe." Draco said, running his fingers through jam-jam's downy locks.
"How come nobody's stopping it?" jam-jam asked.
"The cops are trying, but there are a lot of people fighting, and not enough cops." Draco said.
Jam-jam pouted and lay his head down on Draco's lap, falling asleep quickly from the jet-lag and stress that came from the situation. Draco sighed and ran his fingers through his flaxen locks. He caught sight of Harry returning with Pyxis along with food. Draco's stomach growled in appreciation.
"Hey." Harry said, pecking Draco on the lips before settling down comfortably and sitting Pyxis down on the inflatable mattress the family was sharing. "I managed to find a Chinese vendor, who knew they had those here in an airport? I got jam-jam his sweet and sour chicken and I got you a dozen spring rolls… I would have gotten more, but there's a limit to how much you can buy. Oh! I also found a small convenience store run by this sweet old lady. She said that her delivery man would be bringing in new stocks tomorrow and she'll save a box of diapers for us! How nice of her! I also saw some-"
Draco stopped Harry's incessant nervous rambling with a sound kiss. Harry was dazed when Draco finally pulled away.
"Huh…" Harry sighed, his eyes were glazed over.
"You were rambling." Draco chuckled, gazing at Harry lovingly.
Harry blushed adorably and took out Draco's spring rolls from the plastic bag he was carrying. He also took out his bowl of fried rice and the bottle of apple juice he had gotten to share with Draco. Draco carefully moved jam-jam to lie further down on the mattress so that he wouldn't be covered in spring rolls.
"Did jam-jam take his inhalers before he went to sleep?" Harry asked, chewing his rice.
"Crap." Draco cursed. "I'll do it now."
Draco gently shook jam-jam awake and smiled as the boy groaned and pouted in his sleep addled mind. He lifted the boy to sit up and got the family medicine bag out of his suitcase. He fished out the blue inhaler and shook it as jam-jam looked around blearily.
"Food." Jam-jam mumbled as he crawled over to Harry and sat down looking over at his rice. Harry smiled and lifted a spoonful of rice to jam-jam's lips. The boy took it all in and pushed the excess into his small mouth, puffing his cheeks out.
"I still need you to take a puff, Jamie-bear." Draco said, reclining on the bed, playing with the inhaler in his hands.
"I don't wanna" jam-jam complained.
"Jam-jam." Harry warned.
Jam-jam sighed and scooted over to Draco who helped him take his medicine. He looked around the gate and saw many other people on beds similar to theirs mulling around and toying with their laptops and trying to find signal for their cell phones. He spotted Lucius and Severus playing with Cygnus and got up to give them a visit.
Harry sighed as he looked around the gate. There were many people all looking as stranded as he felt. There was another bearer on the plane, who turned out to be the flight attendant. Harry felt that there was more to him than met the eye. He seemed to be hiding something big. It unnerved Harry to no end. What could he be hiding?
"Harry?" Draco said as he rubbed an awake Pyxis's tummy.
"That flight attendant. He looks like he's worried about something." Harry said.
"Oh? How so?" Draco asked, gazing at the young bearer.
"Well, he keeps biting his lip and rubbing his stomach. If I didn't know any better, I'd say he's pregnant." Harry said, still eating his rice. "And look at the way he's always looking at his phone, like someone's supposed to call him."
"Hmm. That does look a bit fishy." Draco said.
Little did they know, but the little flight attendant was very worried. His husband was at home with the children and with the bearer away for so long, he wouldn't be able to go to work. The bearer's name was Sasuke. He was married to his high school sweetheart and they and their three children lived in a run down, dangerous part of Tokyo. His husband could hold his own, but their children were too young to even understand why they couldn't go out and play with the other children. The family was also a bit low on funds. They wouldn't be able to buy any refills on medicine for a couple of months and their three boys were bearers.
Harry decided to talk to the obviously distressed man. He left Pyxis with Draco and walked over to the flight attendant.
"Excuse me, but you seem to be worried over something." Harry started.
"Oh, n-no it's nothing, please, relax and don't worry, we will leave in 2 – 5 days." the man said. The effect was ruined however, by the glistening tears and the tremors in his voice.
"You're worrying me." Harry said. "You need to tell what's wrong."
"n-no… it's alright." Sasuke tried, as he tugged on his black hair.
"Listen, I was in my fair share of trouble. And when I see someone who looks like thy need a shoulder to cry on, I'll always offer my own." Harry said
Sasuke only broke down and cried. Harry immediately let him cry on his shoulder, although it was a bit uncomfortable, seeing as how Harry was shorter than this man.
Then, the most horrible thing happened.
Armed men rushed into the gate, led by a tall, muscled afghan rebel leader. They were all sneering and shouting, the sudden intrusion causing quite a stir in the little area.
"Listen up, you little shits. I am al'bhahleh. I will be your master. You will be my slaves. Now pack up your things, we are leaving, and don't make us use our guns." The man hissed.
Harry felt the ground underneath him fall away from his feet. How were they getting out of this one?
One week later, found an exhausted Harry trying to console a wailing Pyxis and a weakened jam-jam in a windowless room with Sasuke expelling bile and mucus from his already too empty stomach. Sasuke had deducted that he was pregnant again, and he barely slept with the impending threat of terrorist bombings and the fear for his unborn baby.
During the nights, Harry and Sasuke would take care of the children, trying to catch some sleep themselves, but never being able to. During the day, they were forced to weave rugs and carpets from 5:00 AM to 8:00 PM. Jam-jam's medication had been taken away by the rebel group and he hadn't had any since they were corralled into the gate terminal at the airport.
Harry hadn't been able to speak with Draco for days. They were only allowed to meet once a week, and only for one hour. Draco worked under the searing hot sun from dawn till dusk. He was only fed once every two days and he was terribly sunburned. The bricks the men were forced to haul were very heavy and he felt faint every night when he laid down for his four hours of sleep each night. He was beginning to get desperate. Draco hated not knowing what was going on with his family and he felt like he would explode if he didn't see them soon.
Lucius was sharing a room with a woman named Hinata. She was an angel to him. Hinata helped Lucius with Cygnus and taught him how to weave.
"Thank you, Hinata." Lucius said, smiling at the girl. Her lavender colored eyes looked up from playing with Cygnus.
"It's no problem Lucius-san." Hinata said. She smiled at the man, as he dozed quietly.
Cygnus smiled and bounced on his little feet. He was about 10 months old and he already wanted to walk. Hinata laughed and held his arms and balanced him as he wobbled and hopped on his chubby legs.
Harry was now finally falling asleep when Pyxis started fussing. He tiredly changed his soiled diaper and noted with a dejected sigh, that there were only 5 diapers left. Pyxis went through at least 15 a day. Jam-jam was weak and tired as well. He couldn't stay awake for long, and the guards were starting to threaten him. Harry hadn't known what stress was like before now.
Draco sighed as he tiredly found his family in the large courtyard in which the terrorists let the captives out. He saw a tired, sleepy Harry toting around a pale, weak jam-jam while the flight attendant carried Pyxis. Harry looked horrible. Draco shuddered to think how he must look. Jam-jam looked worse. He was pale and gaunt. He looked as if he had lost some weight and his eyes were lost, pale.
"hey." Draco croaked his throat dry and sore.
"hi." Harry said, smiling tiredly. He sat down in the shade of a tall willow tree and laid jam-jam on his lap. "Jam-jam's not doing too good."
"I can see that." Draco said. He petted jam-jam's hair and sighed wistfully. He already missed his loud, sweet, hyper little Jamie-bear. The sight of him pale, drawn and weak broke his heart.
"b-ba-d-d-dray?" jam-jam asked quietly. His voice was tiny.
"Hey, little man, how are you feeling?" Draco asked the tiny bearer.
"No good." Jam-jam whispered.
"Oh, where's Sasuke?" Harry asked, more to himself.
"Here I am." Sasuke said, walking up with a gurgling Pyxis in his arms. The baby was delighted to see the outside after so long inside.
"Draco, this is Sasuke, he's been helping me with jam-jam and Pyxis." Harry said, reaching out to pet Pyxis's thick hair as Sasuke sat beside him.
The three bearers, including jam-jam were wearing the clothes given to them by the rebel group. It consisted of a small shirt that cut off above the belly, much like that of princess jasmine in the movie Aladdin, one that jam-jam particularly enjoyed, and parachute pants that had a resemblance to the ones found in the movie Aladdin.
The three of them were in all white and it only served to make their pale skin and black hair stand out even more. Harry's hair was pulled back in a thick braid with a few locks falling to frame his face, as Draco looked around the courtyard; every woman was wearing the very same thing.
Draco, along with all the other men was wearing black parachute pants and black satin head bands. They were all shirtless and seemed to be muscled up some, from all the heaving and lifting they were doing.
"Da! Da! Da!" Pyxis mumbled as his feet kicked and his arms stretched out for Draco. Draco smiled and gently took the little baby from Sasuke's arms.
"Hey, my baby boy! Have you been taking care of mommy?" Draco asked playfully.
The next moment however, Lucius walked over with Cygnus on his hip and Severus walking beside him. Cygnus and Severus were wearing black parachute pants while Lucius had on the female uniform. Beside them, however, Hinata was walking, making silly faces at a laughing Cygnus. She also wore the female uniform. Her eyes were a pale lavender color and her hair was short and dark indigo.
"Lucius!" Harry said, at the same time Sasuke said: "Hinata!"
"Hey, guys!" Lucius said, plopping down and making himself comfy. "You know each other?"
Everyone watched as Hinata and Sasuke hugged and spoke rapidly in Japanese, seemingly like they had known each other for ages.
"Oh, where are my manners? My name is Hinata Hyuuga, it's a pleasure to meet you all." Hinata said, blushing softly. She had no accent while Sasuke had a very thick one.
"Lucius, this is Sasuke Uzumaki. He's been helping me out with jam-jam and Pyxis." Harry explained.
"Do you know each other?" Lucius asked again.
"We grew up together." Sasuke said. "My father and her father were close friends and we were at each other's houses all the time. She's like my sister."
"Oh, what a small world." Lucius gushed, smiling at the two.
"But, Sasuke married his high school sweetheart Naruto Uzumaki, and he got disowned for getting pregnant at 18. I haven't seen him since he gave birth to their first baby." Hinata said, sitting down.
"I know what that's like." Lucius said, looking at Draco softly.
"You were disowned as well?" Sasuke asked. "Why?"
"I was raped at 16. I ended up having Draco over here." Lucius said, gesturing at the tall blond across from him. "My parents disowned me, and took him away from me, and he was kept from me for a month before Severus, my miracle lawyer, managed to find me and listen to my story and help me get my baby boy back. He was 27 at the time, and I had just turned 16, but we fell in love and got married after I turned 18. I don't know what would have happened if Severus hadn't seen me wandering around London with tears running down my face."
"Don't think of those things, love. It's all done now, and we have Draco and we have Cygnus too." Severus said as he wrapped his arm around Lucius's slight frame.
"Yes we do." Lucius put a chase kiss on Severus's lips as they embraced.
"So, who's this Naruto?" Harry asked Sasuke. "You never did tell me of your husband."
"He's a big blond dobe." Sasuke said smiling. "But I love him and our kids more than anything in the world."
"dobe?" Harry asked
"It means dumbass or stupid, love." Draco told Harry.
The group met under the same willow tree for three more weeks. The terrorist group granted jam-jam some of his medicines and his inhalers, the little boy was doing much better and everyone was allowed to meet twice a week now.
Sasuke began to show slightly on the third week, cursing the skimpy shirt they were forced to wear. It revealed his small baby bump clearly.
However, on the Monday of the fifth week, things began to look up for everyone except the terrorists.
The gang had been secretly planning an escape since week two. Harry, Sasuke, Hinata, and Lucius would weave secret messages onto the mats and rugs they made and wrote many messages depicting what they were going through. The rugs were shipped off all over the world without any inspection and the world began to take notice.
It started with one woman in Canada finding the message on a mat she was going to buy in a flea market. She then took the rug to the authorities who looked deeper into this and deducted that the rugs came from Afghanistan. Then, another rug turned up in America, then one in France, then in china!
The world began to get closer to finding the captives. The four bearers and jam-jam as well began weaving in earnest. They managed to get other women in on the heist and soon, almost every rug had small messages and codes on them, being shipped off to different places in the world.
The afghan rebels were none the wiser. They didn't pay attention to the news and they were caught completely off guard when three weeks later, on the tenth week, the fortress was raided with many of the world's armed forces. Harry smiled a mile a minute when he finally stepped out onto the afghan streets and smelled the dust and tank grease. He was finally free and he could finally continue his life…. Again.
sooo~ooooo? whadya think?
awsomeness!
