Hope you like the newest chapter. :) Reviews are appreciated, and really make me happy.

The next few hours were a blur. Hermione was in shock, and she had no clue how they had survived the past few hours. Yes she was alive and safe, but her parents were still missing. She was not complete yet.

"I'm sorry Hermione. I should have been more patient," Ron apologized.

"Ron I'm not upset with you. Why don't we search the house, maybe they're somewhere here."

From top to bottom they searched the entire house and they found nothing. They physically looked everywhere but there was no one to be found. They even rechecked the places the other looked just to be safe.

"Hermione I'm sorry they're not here. Why don't we go back to the hotel and regroup. We can come up with a new plan from there."

"Wait Ron," Hermione replied, "give me a minute. I feel like we skipped something. Now let's think about this logically. Rowle used polyjuice potion to become my mother. They had to have had my parents recently to get her hair. I don't think they had enough time to move them. I think they're either dead or somewhere here. Even if they are dead, their bodies are still probably somewhere in the house." She said this last statement with extreme difficulty, but she had to accept that her parents might be dead.

Ron never underestimated Hermione's ability to think under pressure. But there was one thing he didn't understand.

"But Hermione. We tore this whole house apart. I don't think their dead, but I don't think they're here either."

Honestly, Ron wasn't sure if her parents were dead or not, but he would never tell Hermione that. He knew that Hermione didn't want to give up just yet.

"We didn't account for one thing though, the one thing that our life is centered around, magic. Let's be honest, Rowle and Travers used magic somehow to hide my parents. Let's research the house, but this time look for anything that contains magical properties."

They started the same search as before, but this time with a new objective. A an hour later, Hermione called out, "Ron come here! I think I might have found something!"

He immediately ran upstairs into what looked like the guest bedroom. The pale green walls matched the white sheets on the bed. The light from the window shone in making the room seem brighter than it really was. In essence, the room was quite dreary.

"Hermione what did you find? I don't see anything," Ron said obliviously.

"What did Harry tell about the night Cedric died? After Barty Crouch Jr. took him and he figured out he was using polyjuice potion, do you remember where the real Mad-Eye was hidden?"

"The chest," they said simultaneously.

Ron looked at the front of the bed and he saw a large wooden chest. What had seemed so unfamiliar seemed like the missing piece.

"Do you think they're really in there?" he asked.

"We might as well try."

Hermione opened the chest as she did before. Nothing was different and she immediately seemed frazzled. They sat there for a few moments in silence. Hermione bit her bottom lip, like she always did when she was thinking.

All of a sudden, Hermione closed the chest and looked at the keyhole. She took out her wand and touched it to the keyhole. The lid immediately opened and the bottom of the chest disappeared. They looked down to see a never ending downward tunnel.

"Bloody brilliant Hermione. I can't believe you figured it out," Ron said.

"Hello," Hermione called, "is anyone down there?"

"Yes, please help us!" A woman cried.

"Wingardium leviosa," Ron yelled as two people were risen in the air.

Hermione smiled as she saw her parents before her eyes. They were finally reunited.

They are finally reunited! Please review and tell me your thoughts. :)
