A/N: I am so sorry it has taken me so long to write, I am back in college and I have a lot more classes than I'm used to. Please forgive me for my slowness in writing but I will try to get a new chapter up every week. Don't lose hope in the story! And please review :]
Three weeks later
Harry stood at the edge of the forest being pushed from behind. He had barely left the house and gotten to his parents grave stone before he was ambushed. Three people grabbed him from behind and magically tied him up taking his wand away from him. All he wanted to do was visit his parents before he went on a search around to find answer for his son.
Now he was being pushed into the woods with bruises and cuts all over his body. The men that took him decided to have a little fun and tortured him to get him to tell them why he was there. They wanted information on why he was on a search but he wouldn't tell them about his son or his family.
He also knew the three men that had him under their control. "Get a move on, Potter. We don't have all day." A snarl came from Fenrir Greyback.
Harry had no clue how the three death eaters escaped from Azkaban but he did know that they won't be easy on him.
Both Goyle and Barty Crouch Jr laughed at the extent of Harry's vulnerability.
They walked for what seemed like hours to Harry but was only half an hour as he was pushed to the ground and kicked several times when he didn't get up fast enough. They finally made it to a clearing and there in front of Harry stood a cage.
Harry's eyes widened and shook with nervousness. He gulped "What's that cage for?"
Greyback laughed loudly "If you weren't such a dimwit you'd know that it's an enchanted cage for wizards like yourself. They have these in Azkaban and multiple times I've been put into one of these and now it's your turn to experience it."
Harry groaned "You can torture me all you want to but you will never get the information out of me. And torturing my won't make what happened to you any less painful in your minds. It's not my fault for any of it."
Fenrir growled under his breathe but was stopped by a hand raised in the air as Barty walked toward Harry. "Not your fault? Everything has been your fault from the start; Voldemort should have killed you when he had the chance but he was too stupid to raise his wand fast enough. Now you're our responsibility to take care of once and for all and let me tell you it will be enjoyable for me to do what I should have done in your fourth year." Barty raised his hand and smacked Harry to the ground. He raised his wand and lifted Harry off the ground and into the cage locking it behind him.
Harry was instantly chained to the side of the cage both wrists and ankles with shackles around them tightly. "It's your own fault for turning to the dark side. I didn't make your decision for you, you made it."
Greyback walked to the cage looking Harry in the eyes "And I have made my decision." He snarled and the words that Harry knew were coming too soon came "Crucio" and with that Harry's body turned violently against the cage bars.
Sweat ran down his face and he tried to hold back the scream that was trying to work its way out. He didn't want to give Greyback the pleasure of hearing him scream. Fenrir broke the curse and watched Harry's body slide down the bars as far as the shackles holding his arms would let him.
"Now now Potter I have a great idea. I bet your friends and family would love to see you. What do you say a few seconds into their living room in the cage and back here should make them worried enough. And your precious children of yours will see how things should have gone years ago." The snarl from Greybacks mouth was vicious and he waved his wand to let the cage disappear long enough for his whole family to see them come back without his family being able to do anything.
Ginny, Ron, and Hermione were sitting in the kitchen while the kids were in the living room watching TV. It was Harry's idea to get a muggle TV so the kids could have something to do if they were bored or it was raining out.
Ginny twisted her tea cup in her hands and couldn't stop thinking about Harry. It's been three weeks now since he's been gone and all she wants is to know if he's alright, but no luck.
"You should really stop worrying Gin, if Harry was in trouble he'd find a way to reach out." Though Hermione tried to sound like she wasn't worried she failed. Both Ginny and Ron could tell she was as worried as Ginny was and Ron felt the same way.
"Don't say that unless you really know. Every time Harry went missing while we were in school he was either bleeding or we had to rush to the hospital wing to find him. Time's don't change that much." Ron muttered as quietly as he could so the kids didn't hear them.
"Yes Ronald but Harry has changed. He knows that we are here for him more than anything like during the war and he wouldn't exclude us from anything either unless he didn't find it safe for him to call or he was in trouble." Hermione stopped and realized what she said and covered her mouth. "Oh Gin I'm sorry I didn't mean to say that, I'm sure he's just fine."
Ginny waved it off "It's fine Hermione, I know you are worried about him to and can't help what you say. But both of you please don't start fighting I don't ne-" She stopped when she heard all the children scream.
All three of them ran into the living room and froze. Hermione covered hear mouth as tears fell down her face, Ginny screamed Harry's name but couldn't move and Ron was frozen in one spot stuttering like a fool.
The cage that Harry was in now rested in their living room with Harry's bruised body was slumped forward wrists and ankles still chained. Blood was running down his neck from his mouth and he slowly raised his head and saw his family right in front of him. His kids were all huddled together. James was shaking and calling his name with tears down his face and Harry couldn't do anything but look at them sadly. He was about to say something but he disappeared.
Ginny slumped to the ground putting her face in her hands. Tears ran down her face and both Ron and Hermione slid to the floor next to her. Ron wrapped his arms around Ginny.
"We…I.." Ron stuttered not knowing what to say.
James came around the corner and sat in his mothers lap curling up against her. Ginny ran her fingers through his hair as the rest of the kids sat around them.
"Is Uncle Harry going to be ok?" Rose asked Ron tears gleaming in her eyes.
"Yes honey…he will be."
"Kids why don't you go upstairs and rest." All five kids went upstairs. Ron helped Ginny up.
She wiped her eyes "What are we going to do? Did you see how he looked? He looked miserable! Like he's been tortured this whole time." She sobbed into her hands.
Both Ron and Hermione just looked at each other with tears in their eyes also.
The cage returned to the woods and instantly Goyle put the cruciatus curse on Harry. His body turned to the side violently. He could feel the blood from his mouth drip down but all he could think of was Ginny and the kids. I'm so sorry that I let you all down, he thought.
Goyle stopped the curse and snickered. "It's getting late and we need to get to Draco's house before dinner. What should we do with Potter?"
Greyback thought for a moment "Little Drakey wouldn't mind if we stored Potter in his dungeons in the Malfoy Manor. After all he does hate 'The Golden Boy' still, correct?"
Goyle nodded not knowing the true answer to that. "Then let's go."
The three of them apparated into Malfoy Manor automatically putting the cage and Harry in the dungeons. Draco stared at the three of them in surprise.
Draco raised an eyebrow "Hello boys, I didn't know you were out of Azkaban." He tried to sound calm but his voice cracked.
Greyback caught on "What's wrong Draco? You seem alittle surprised to see us." He smirked.
"Not at all, I just didn't know they let you out. It's nice to see you again Goyle."
"They didn't let us out we escaped. Pretty easy actually, once a guard isn't looking just snap his neck and run. Honestly didn't think it'd work until we were free." Goyle grinned. "Oh and we have a little surprise for you in your dungeons." Just as he said that they could hear Malfoy's name being yelled.
Draco tensed, knowing that voice, knowing the pain in that voice. "What did you guys do?"
"A little bit of repayment that's been due for a long time now." Greyback snarled happily. "Don't worry about Potter, he won't be escaping. He's chained to the cage and if he touches the bars they burn him. Which makes him very uncomfortable since he has to keep his back arched so he doesn't burn in the process. But the burns from the curse has been a lovely show of pain in his eyes."
Draco gulped. He may not have liked Harry in their school years but he's grown up and changed a lot. He didn't mind Harry that much but if he even tried saving him he'd get killed himself. "Well, that's a … good surprise. Would you like something to eat?" He decided to try and switch topics he didn't know how to handle Potter being in his basement.
'Oh God, how am I going to get myself out of this, along with Potter. He's helped me so many times, times that I didn't deserve. Now it's my turn, but how? He thought as all four of them walked into his kitchen. He was determined to get Harry out of this mess. He owed him just that.
Thank you for reading! Please review telling me what you think.
