CHAPTER 4

"Expelliarmus!" Harry shouted, catching Ron's wand in his hand, before Ron could react. He quickly got Hermione out of her bonds while casting a quick "Incarcerous" on Ron.

"Wha-" Ron started, surprised.

"Why. Are. You. Here?! And WHY was Hermione tied up!?" Harry yelled, outraged.

"Well, the little mudblo-" Ron started, but couldn't bring himself to say it.

At this Harry felt like he was going to blow. "How DARE you call her that! Silencio!" He cried. He turned toward Hermione who had tears in her eyes. He looked over at Rose who had snuck down the stairs and was crying. This is what Ron has done to our family! This is what that bloody git has done to us! Harry thought. "Sonorus" Harry called, letting Ron speak again. "Now, tell me EXACTLY why you thought it necessary to come into our home and terrorize my wife and daughter!" Harry yelled.

"Well, you see, after I dumped the nag-" Ron started but was interrupted.

"Don't call her that!" Harry growled.

"Ok, ok! So, I after I dumped Hermione." ,Ron emphasized, "I married Pansy Parkinson. We had a child and we were very happy. But then Pansy brought up Hermione one day. She asked how Hermione was doing and asked if you two had a child. I told her I hadn't talked to her in years, but since I see you at work sometimes I knew you had one. So I told her you did and she started to freak out saying how your child will definitely beat ours academically. So ,of course, we started planning on how to get her out of the picture." Ron finished with a smug grin on his face.

"Wait, so you don't know who hit Rose with the car?" Harry asked, fearing the worst.

Ron started to smile an evil smile. "Oh honestly how thick can you be? I'M the one who ran over Rose, but that bloody protection spell made the plan fail!"

Harry could feel his temper snap. "YOU RAN OVER MY DAUGHTER!" Harry screamed.

Ron started to enjoy Harry's anger. "Yep!" He said cheerily.

Harry couldn't stand it anymore. He whipped out his wand and ran over to Ron. "Cruci-" He started to shout but was cut off by someone else screaming "Expelliarmus!" Harry's wand flew out of his hand and into Hermione's.

"Harry no! You can't use that on him!" Hermione yelled. Harry slowly came out of his anger and looked around. Ron sat on the chair, bound and petrified in fear. Rose was still on the stairs but was now practically sobbing and had a look of pure terror on her face. Harry let Hermione lead him over to a chair and sit him down. Hermione started to soothe Harry, and didn't notice Ron slowly start to get out of his binds behind her until it was too late.

"Stupefy!" Ron screamed. Harry and Hermione looked up only to see a stream of Red light hit Rose right in the heart.

A/N: I will be on vacation, so I MIGHT not post new chapters for a week or so, but I will still write them so I will have lots to post when I get back.
