Chapter Eleven

1 year later

Emily was in her home. Lily was spending the night at Ginny's house. Dumbledore had told her that Voldemort had returned and she needed to get information. She so far had not found anything. The Daily Prophet wasn't much help either, saying that Dumbledore was a liar.

Emily looked out her kitchen window. There was something very odd about this night. It wasn't the full moon but she kept hearing something howling. She locked the front and back door and put up a few alarm spells.

She sat on her couch, with her wand in her hand. She could hear howling outside her house. She didn't know why, if anything, would be outside her house. She sat on the couch for a few hours, before falling asleep.

She woke up in the morning to see that nothing had happened. She got off the couch and looked out her kitchen window. Her fence had been torn to pieces. She went outside and looked around. Written on the ground was 'You're Mine.' She looked around before quickly running back inside. She locked the door and looked out the window. She looked around, but saw nothing. She gave a sigh and turned around only to have a hand wrapped around her neck and be lifted off the ground.

"You should of never stepped outside," she heard the person growl.

Lily was having dinner with the Weasley family.

"So how is your mother doing?" Molly asked as she put the last bit of food on the table.

"Very good," Lily said, "though, the passed few days, she says she hear howling outside."

"Really," Molly said, looking over at Arthur who just nodded his head.

Arthur stood up and left the kitchen. Everyone watched him, before looking at Molly.

"I'm sure it's nothing," Lily quickly said, "mom does get a bit crazy with her condition."

Molly nodded her head and everyone started to eat. Arthur didn't come back until all the kids were in bed. Molly was pacing in the front room when he came back.

"Well?" Molly asked, quickly walking over to him.

"I honestly don't know," Arthur said, looking down at Molly, "her door was locked, but the front window was broke and there in ground was 'You're Mine'. I don't know what that could of meant, but I do know, she's not there anymore."

Molly looked shocked at the news. She quickly went to the front room and got out a piece of parchment and ink. She wrote a letter to Dumbledore and sent it off that night.

"I hope he gets it in time," Molly sighed, turning to Arthur.

A week had passed. Molly had told Lily that she had to stay there with them for awhile. Lily didn't seem to mind at all.

Molly was making lunch when Dumbledore showed up.

"Oh, what bring you here?" Molly asked with a smile.

"We have a headquarters," Dumbledore said, looking at Arthur, "I suggest you move everyone there as soon as possible."

"Is something happening?" Molly asked, looking worried.

"It will be safer," Dumbledore said, "until school starts."

Dumbledore left without saying another word. Molly forgot about making lunch and quickly made the kids pack their trunks to leave. Soon everyone was ready to go. They left their house and went to headquarters.

When they got there, they were greeted by Kingsley, Sirius, Remus, Tonks, and Moody.

"I'll show you your rooms," Kingsley said, leading the kids up the stairs.

"How have you been?" Molly asked, looking at Remus and Sirius.

"Good," Remus said.

"Bored," Sirius muttered.

They lead Molly and Arthur into the kitchen to talk about the plan that they had so far. After a few hours of talking. Molly and Tonks went to get dinner ready. Remus and Sirius showed Arthur around the house.

"What do you think is going to happen?" Tonks asked, trying not to drop the plates as she set them on the table.

"I'm sure the Ministry will come around," Molly sighed, "sometimes people are just stuburn."

"Ya, like Remus," Tonks said, looking around, "he don't seem to like me."

"I'm sure he don't hate you," Molly said, looking at Tonks.

"Well, I like him," Tonks said, dropping the spoons on the floor, "I told him and he just said he don't think of me that way."

"Maybe he has a girlfriend," Molly said.

"I doubt it," Tonks muttered, picking up the spoons.

Soon dinner was ready and everyone was sitting down to eat. Lily sat between Ginny and Remus. Tonks sat across from Remus.

"This place is nice," Lily said, looking around, "very big."

"Yes it is," Sirius said, looking at Lily with a smile, "you look so familiar."

"Do I look like my mom?" Lily asked with a smile.

"In some ways," Sirius grinned, and looked at Remus, "that your daughter, Remus?"

"No," Remus said, looking at Sirius, "what makes you ask that?"

Sirius looked back and forth from Lily to Remus, before saying, "you sure?"

Remus didn't answer, which only caused Sirius to grin even bigger. Molly looked back and forth from Remus to Lily. Tonks didn't seem to want to be there anymore, since she just left the room.

"She does look like you," Molly said, looking at Remus.

"Where is Emily anyway?" Sirius asked.

"She is doing me a favor," Dumbledore said as he walked into the kitchen, "don't expect to hear from her anytime soon."

"What about me?" Lily asked, looking shocked, "where will I stay?"

"I'll let them sort it out," Dumbledore said, "Kingsley, Mad Eye."

Kingsley and Moody left with Dumbledore. Lily looked around the room.

"You can stay in my room," Ginny said.

"Yes," Molly nodded her head.

"Why don't she stay with you, Remus?" Sirius asked, looking at Remus.

Remus looked at Sirius, who was stil grinning.

"Too dangerous," Remus said.

"Not really," Lily said, looking at Remus, "my mom's a werewolf too you know."

Remus looked at Lily, who just smiled. Molly finally rolled her eyes and pulled out a vile of a clear potion. She sat down in Tonks old seat.

"Hand please," Molly said, looking at Lily.

Lily looked around, before letting Molly take her hand. Molly just smiled, before poking her finger. Molly put one drop of blood into the clear potion. She than turned to Remus.

"Come on," Molly said.

"Is this really necassary?" Remus asked, letting Molly poke his finger.

Molly put one drop of his blood into the clear potion.

"What is that?" Ron asked, watching with interest.

"Oh," Molly said, looking around, "it's just to see if they are related."

"How can you tell?" Fred asked, looking at the potion.

"Well," Molly said, "if they are related, the potion will turn red and if there not, it will stay clear. It will only take a minute."

Everyone watched the potion with interest. Sirius gave a small laugh when the potion went red. Remus looked shocked and looked up at Molly, who just smiled. He didn't even notice that Lily was hugging him. He looked down at her, stil looking shocked. He honestly didn't know what to do.
