Chapter 23- New Year and new dangers
Christmas went without a hitch…
Draco's party was held again and it was more attended this year.
Arthur had made some peace with Molly after assuring her he was quite all right but she still made no move thus far to mend the bridges between her and her elder sons.
Just before they were to return to school, Blaise woke from a very terrible dream.
He ran towards his father in law's room, there he through open the door, "Arthur?"
The ever vigil Auror leapt from his bed, "Blaise?"
"I'm sure you'll be hearing from Dora and Scrimgour soon as well as Peasegood." Blaise said in a hurry.
"About what?" Arthur asked, gesturing for his young son in law to sit in an armchair.
"There is going to be a breakout. A breakout from Azkaban." Blaise said with a shiver.
"Are you quite sure? We haven't had a breakout since Black and he was a special case being an animagus and all." Arthur said casting a fire in the hearth.
"Quite sure. Dead sure. As if the Dark Lord and a few of his Death Eaters roaming about and causing terror weren't bad enough." Blaise covered his eyes and leaned back against the chair.
"Who is breaking out?" Arthur asked pouring the young man a glass of water.
"Ten of the worst."
"Not…"
"Antonin Dolohov, Bellatrix Lestrange, Rabastan Lestrange, Rodolphus Lestrange, Mulciber, Augustus Rookwood, Travers and 3 others whose names I don't rightly know. Or at least I didn't know them in my vision."
"Oh dear." Arthur closed his eyes, wishing he WASN"T Head Auror. "On my watch too, oh that barmy old bat will want my head for this.
Blaise knew right off that his father in law meant that obnoxious Lady Dolores Jane Umbridge, "It's not your fault. They'll have had help."
"I just hope they don't try to blame Black. With ten infamous Death Eaters like Bellatrix I'll have to call in all the old guard. I don't want Black back but he's got experience and I know that his wife will have got him healthy enough to return to active duty." Arthur groaned.
"Better him at the Ministry under your nose then at Hogwarts under Harry's skin." Blaise shrugged.
"Have they tried to fix their relationship?" Arthur asked a bit curious, he remembered how close James, Sirius, Remus and that rat Peter had be in the old days.
Something happened during the first Hogwart's Quidditch match it seemed that Sirius chose Remus and Harry over Dumbledore. Between the letters from James and Lily that he was finally given last year and whatever happened that day had forced Sirius to choose. He both wished and was glad he didn't know exactly. Charlie hadn't really told him, he'd brooded but Blaise hadn't wanted to press. He trusted that his mate would tell him if he felt he needed to know. Lu…Coraline had been quite subdued since and barely stirred from the Head Boy's suite in Gryffindor Tower.
There was a sound from the passage, three voices argued with the high squeaky voice of Winky.
"No you leave Master Arthur alone. He needs his rest. He's been ill."
"It's a matter of great importance."
That was Scrimgour.
"Do be quiet Winky. I don't feel that well and your voice is giving me a headache."
Dora…
Arthur pulled on a robe and opened his door, "Winky dear, it's quite alright. I'm already awake."
Winky left in a huff.
Blaise summoned his robe, "Good night father. I shall return to bed. I hope things aren't truly as bleak as I feared." Knowing quite well that they were.
"Thank you Blaise. Do try to rest." He felt bad that his attack had caused Fleur and Blaise- who was his favorite in law to have children so close to their babies. He hadn't wished them to have to raise a handful of kids all a year apart like Molly had. So many and some will feel like they don't fit, some won't get the proper attention etcetera.
Scrimgour raised an eyebrow.
"I had a disturbing dream about some nasty characters escaping Azkaban. I worried there might be some truth to it and informed my father in law." Blaise said to the annoying man who had a hint of vampire about him.
"You what!" Kingsley gasped.
Dora knew a bit about her almost cousin's talents, "I see. You knew. You did right to tell the boss."
"You're a seer?" Scrimgour asked in a contemptuous voice.
Blaise nodded, "It comes with my blood. I have seers on both sides, an aunt on my father's and my grandmother on my mother's. I never expected to gain such an ability. It's been getting stronger lately, either because of dangerous times we live in or because I'm growing into my powers." He yawned, "I must sleep. Do be careful…" he left quickly, like Remus he couldn't stand Scrimgour.
XoooooX
Dora left on orders from her boss to wake all Aurors, retired, on leave and active.
She Apparated to the street near Grimmauld Place, school was scheduled to start in a few days but Charity and her cousin Sirius had yet to remove to Hogwarts.
Kreacher met her at the door, muttering about embarrassment to his old mistress.
If Sirius wasn't just a fool and Mother wasn't trying to remind him of his place then she might have seen to getting him a decent house elf.
"Out of my way Kreacher." Dora said.
Sirius stumbled down the stairs rubbing sleep from his eyes, "Nym…"
"It's Dora or Auror Tremlett. Get dressed. You've been officially re-instated Auror Black." Dora snapped.
Sirius blinked, his spine stiffened and he was immediately at attention. "Yes madam. I'll go get my things. Kreacher you old fool! Get out of the way."
"Sirius?" came the soft lilting voice of his wife Charity from the staircase.
Sirius glanced at her, "It's Dora." He puffed his chest out, "I've been called in. Auror Weasley decided I could return to work."
Charity wobbled, her face growing ashen and grasping the banister. "NO!" then she said quietly. "Forgive me but why?"
Dora didn't want to upset her.
Sirius turned back to Dora, "Why indeed. That is an excellent question."
Dora pinched her nose, "this doesn't leave this room?"
Charity was dead white by then.
Sirius nodded, looking like the war hero he used to rather then a former prisoner. "Of course."
Dora sighed, "My aunt, your cousin Bellatrix and nine other Death Eaters have broken out of Azkaban."
"Bella? Bloody hell. As if having the Dark Lord alive and well wasn't bad enough. Poor Arthur no wonder he called me. I half expected him to do so sooner when the Muggle attacks started." Sirius groaned, "Please tell me that Rabastan and Rodolphus Lestrange,"
"I'm not sure because we didn't hear names yet, though Arthur has a good idea of who."
"How?" Charity asked in a shaky voice.
"Blaise, his son Charlie's bondmate. He had a dream about a breakout and apparently told him just before we got there. Arthur mentioned Antonin Dolohov, Bellatrix Lestrange, Rabastan Lestrange, Rodolphus Lestrange, Mulciber, Augustus Rookwood, Travers and 3 others."
Sirius' face darkened with anger, "Dolohov? That ruddy bastard! He's the leader of the group that chased and killed Fabian and Gideon. For all I know he killed Benjy."
Dora thought that this house was the dreariest she'd ever been in. "Charity dear, why don't you spend a few days,"
"No." Charity said in a shaky voice, "This is my home now. I want Sirius to have a place to come home to."
Sirius gave her a smile, running up to change into his old Auror robes that he'd made sure that were clean in case he was allowed to return completely to his old life. It had been quite a change going from Hero Playboy to wanted murderer to professor. He really did miss being an Auror but even though he hadn't wanted to marry Charity she was good to him and in his own way he had come to care for her. He brushed her pale cheek with his lips as he left to floo to the Ministry.
Dora squeezed her hand, "We'll look out for him. Pardon me, I must go ask my mentor Alastor Moody to return to active duty." He had been cleared of all charges since it was proven that it was Barty Crouch Jr. that attacked Draco; kidnapped, Imperioed and killed his own father and kidnapped Alastor.
Alastor had decided that tales of his mad obsession with Dark Wizards had spread too far while he was being treated because of his imprisonment he'd decided to see a mind healer who was contracted by the Ministry and understood secrecy. He'd told Arthur- the boss that since the Dark Lord was back he wanted to fight but at present he wasn't well enough. He'd recently sent a request to be reinstated along with a letter from his Mind Healer claiming he was doing well and as long as he saw them one a week that they saw no reason he couldn't return to work.
~AUTHORS NOTE- IMPORTANT~
Now we dive right into more drama!
