AN: I'm SOOOOOOOO sorry for the wait! It's just, it's the end of the year and there's always something. A test, two tests, a paper, all three at the same time, whatever. I'm trying to get these to you as fast as I can, bear with me. Here's chapter 14.

Scorpius POV

"Scorpius, son? What are you doing? And why have you brought the 'Golden Trio'?"

"Father, Rose is gone!"

"What?" He was immediately alert. "What happened?"

"It was Scabior, he took her somewhere!"

"Scabior? But he's supposed to be dead."

"Well, he's not, obviously because he just came and kidnapped my girlfriend!"

"Scorpius, you need to calm down. I understand you're worried, we all are, but panicking is not going to get us anywhere," Hermione stated. It was repetitive, but it worked. I calmed down a bit.

"Okay, but she could be hurt! We need to find her!"

"Scorpius is correct, and that's why we came here, Mr. Malfoy. Scorpius told us that Scabior first came here to threaten him and give him the opportunity to join him before he abducted Rose, so we were wondering if he told you anything, or you heard something. Do you know anything?" Wow, Rose was right about her Uncle Harry. He could instantly go from happy joking family guy to serious head auror in a matter of minutes.

"I'm afraid not. I can honestly tell you I know nothing, Auror Potter. This is the first I've heard of this. I'm sorry. But I do remember some instances where I was working near Scabior during the war, and I do know a few things about how he works. He is very tricky with his projects, he seems stupid because he goes and tells people before he does anything, but he only does that if he's sure he will be able to get his job done before the person can act on their knowledge. And he never kills anyone right away, he usually takes them to some far off place no one would think of looking and hides out. He doesn't have any usual place, it varies, but it tends to be some run-down shack of a place that no one would think to look. Sometimes he will reveal the location to ask for a ransom, but under these circumstances I don't think that's very likely. That's all I know, I apoligize."

The aurors and Hermione stayed very quiet and listened attentively the whole time my father was talking. I can say one thing for Rose's father, when someone's in a danger he doesn't mess around. I know how much he must hate having to trust my father, but it's his only way to get information at this point. Maybe this will be good for me and Rose, if our fathers can learn to work together. I pushed those thoughts out of my head. That would be great, but all that matters now is Rose.

"Thank you for that, Mr. Malfoy," said Harry. "If you don't mind, I think it would be a good diea for you to come with us. Though you have said you don't know anything about this particular circumstance, I think it would be good to have you with us because of your experience with Scabior, plus it's always good to have a healer with you on these types of things."

My father nodded. "Yes, I agree Mr. Potter. If it is alright with all of you, I will accompany you. I will try my best to assist you in any way I can, and I hope my healer skills are not needed." I could see how stiff and formal my father was acting, which was not normal for him. He was usually a very easygoing guy, and he was determined to get back all the respect our family used to have. But unlike the previous Malfoys, he wanted to get our honor not through money and power, but by being a genuinely good person. I guess even though he worked so hard to change his position in society, being casual with his old school enemies still isn't working. I don't blame him, I would feel this awkward if Rose and my relationship hadn't… changed.

We left my home and I asked, "So, dad you said he would take her somewhere deserted. Any ideas on where we should look? We don't have time to just go looking in every deserted place in the country you know."

"Well, I only know he would most likely take her someplace far off where no one would think to look."

"That's helpful, Malfoy!"

"I'm trying to be helpful, Weasley! I would think you'd appreciate it!" Okay, so much for our parents working well together.

"Wait, Ron! I completely forgot about the clock!" exclaimed Hermione.

"What clock, my mum's? It won't help us Mione , her name's just gonna be stuck on 'mortal peril' which we already know!"

"No, I mean, she gave everyone a clock, and one night I decided to tamper with it. It's been in my office for a long time, but I finally got it to not just show the general idea of where someone is but it will show a picture of their actual location. Maybe we can figure out where Rose is!"

Oh how convenient. Why the bloody hell didn't she think of that before? "Great, let's go." I quickly disapparated. I appeared in front of Rose's parents' house in Godric's hollow. The adults came immediately after me and we ran inside. Hermione led the way to her study and we quickly clambered in. I looked at the clock under rose's name, but I couldn't see much. The small screen was showing what looked like the inside of a small shed. It was the middle of day, but there was only a little bit of light shining through. I could only see that the shed looked deserted and nearly bare, only with a few pieces of miscellaneous junk here and there. Just then, something moved and I saw the face of the man I never wanted to see again in my life. He was coming closer to the screen, which I could only assume was showing us the room as Rose could see it. That meant he was approaching Rose!

"Okay, so my dad was right. He did take her to some abandoned place. But we don't even know where it is!"

"Yes, Scorpius dear, but we can still apparate. Just picture the shed in your mind."

"Does that really work? Can you apparate somewhere without knowing where it is?"

"I know it sounds strange, but we've done it before. You just have to concentrate on the shed a little harder than normal. Or if you're worried you can side-along with me." What? Okay, I get what Rose meant about her mom. She was so sweet and giving it was almost annoying.

"No, I'm fine. " I quickly disapparated before anyone could try to talk me into just going side-along.

I appeared in an unfamiliar field covered with deep snow. At first I wondered if I had made a mistake, and I was about to go back, when I saw a small run-down shed nearly covered in the white blanket of snow that was everywhere. I made my way toward it and pressed my ear to the wall very quietly. I could barely make out small voices.

"You can't hurt me. I know my family is looking for me and in only minutes I'll be out of here. Or would you rather I kick your ass now?" That's my Rose, always obnoxiously strong. I just hope it doesn't get her hurt this time.

"You think so, huh? I doubt they'll find you here. I left no clues. They know you've been taken, which will hurt them, but they have no idea how to find you." Yeah, right. He's talking about the Weasleys, not to mention Harry Potter. This guy really was an idiot. I heard a few pops behind me and whipped around, relieved to see that it was just the parents.

"Scorpius, why didn't you wait for us? It was very irresponsible for you to leave like that!"

"Mrs. Weasley, as much as I appreciate the message, I do not believe it is your place to be scolding my son. Scorpius, what she said."

Wow, my dad's classy.

They all slowly approached the shed and we stood there for a little bit, getting our bearings. I placed my head against the wall again.

"You see, they aren't coming."

"Yes they are! I know they will! You can't hurt me!"

"Oh shut it, you know I can." Was he about to do what I thought he was about to do? "Cruc-"

I slammed into the shed. I would NOT let that happen. All reason cast aside, I tackled Scabior. I was much stronger than him, and he was old, so it didn't take much effort, but he had his wand out so I was still on my guard. The adults had followed me and they were all checking on Rose. I pulled out my wand and put a quick body-bind on Scabior, and I ran over to see her. Her condition was a lot worse than I'd expected. She was tied up with actual ropes, which looked very rough and scratchy. She had lots of small cuts all over her face, and some deeper ones I could see on her limbs. She was bruised in many places and her arm was twisted at a sickly angle. I immediately dropped to my knees and untied her, and pulled he rinto a lose embrace, being careful to avoid her broken arm.

"Oh Rosie I'm so sorry. This is all my fault. I should have gotten here sooner. I'm sorry."

"It's not your fault, Scorpius," Her voice was so small. I wondered how much she had been through before I got here. "If it's anybody's fault, it's mine. I was the one who went outside alone at night and stayed out for who knows how long. I was irresponsible."

I pulled assay from her and forced her to make eye contact. "No. There is no way that this is your fault. Don't ever think that. Ever. If anyone's to blame, it's me. End of story."

"But-"

"No, Rosie. You were kidnapped. That isn't remotely your fault." I leaned down and gave her a small kiss. "I love you."

She smiled. "I love you, too."

AN: Yeah, not my best chapter, but I didn't want you guys to have to wait any more. If you have suggestions, review and maybe I'll edit this but for now, this is how it is. I'll try my hardest to get the next one out faster, but there's only two weeks on school left and it's hell. So the next one may not be until my summer vacation starts after the 27th, but I'll try to get 15 out before then. Until then, R&R and love y'all!
