"Let us in Draco. We need to check your…dungeon for something." Hermione said sternly, placing her hands on her hips. To George, she looked like his mum.
"Er, alright." Draco said, very confused and he opened the door wider and let the entire group in. Hermione inhaled sharply as she took in the familiar interior and led the guys down the stairs to the dungeon. As they inclined more downward, they all began smelling a foul odor coming from inside the dungeon. Once they reached the door, Hermione tried opening it to only find out it was locked. She took out her wand and muttered Alohomora, opening the door and rushed in. The sight in front of her made her stop in her tracks and cover her mouth and let out a strangled cry. It was Fred. He was lying on the floor covered in slashes and bruises and blisters. Hermione heard another strangled cry and she looked over at George, who had dropped to his knees with his head in his hand. Hermione wanted to comfort George but waddled over to her husband.
When she reached Fred, Harry, who had been following her, help her kneel beside Fred. She took her wand again and conjured up a bucket full of clean water and a sponge and began leaning Fred's wounds. She gently washed his face to his toes and then he stirred and opened his eyes just barely.
"Hermione?" he said weakly. Hermione scooted back over to where she was in front of his face so he could see her. He chuckled and rested a hand on her stomach.
"You're so big." He said and Hermione chocked out a laugh/cry and rested her hand on top of his. By that time, George was kneeling beside Hermione as well as Bill, Charlie, Ron, and Harry. Suddenly, they all heard a familiar evil laugh and looked over to see none other than Lucious Malfoy standing in the door frame of the dungeon.
"Well, well, well. Look who we have here." He said with an evil sneer and sauntered into the dungeon. All they guys (except Fred) hopped up and pointed their wands at Lucious. Lucious just tisked and with the swipe of his hand, knocked their wands out of their hands leaving them defenseless.
"Now, why are all of you here? To rescue poor little Freddie?" Lucious said in a taunting manor. Hermione whipped out her wand and pointed it directly at Lucious.
"You have hurt me for the last time! I am prepared to kill you." Hermione said in a tone Fred only heard once, at the Second Wizarding War.
"Really now? But, you're supposed to be the helpless little pregnant bookworm, right?" Lucious said mockingly. Hermione still had her wand raised and wasn't backing down without a fight.
"Harry! Ron! Now! Reducto!" Hermione yelled and sent the spell at the wall beside Lucious, knocking him over and letting Harry and Ron take him back to Azkaban while Hermione disapperated Fred to St. Mungo's with George, Bill, and Charlie.
X-x-X
It has been two days since Hermione brought Fred to St. Mungo's after his kidnapping and hostage at Malfoy Manor. Hermione has been staying at the hospital with Fred, who was in a slight coma. George and Farah were keeping Emily until Hermione and Fred came home. Emily was with Farah right now while George was with Hermione and Fred. Hermione was stoking Fred's hair just as Ron came running in.
"Guys, did you hear! Lucious had just been given the Dementor's Kiss!" he said excitedly and Hermione smiled, relived that he would no longer be bothering her. Just then, Hermione felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen and felt her water break.
"Ron, get a medi-witch and Healer Michaels. Now!" Hermione ordered and Ron dared not question it. He ran out of the room and George helped Hermione into a chair. Healer Michaels and a medi-witch came rushing in with a bed and hospital gown. George looked away white Hermione changed and then helped her onto the bed. Just then, Fred's eyes snapped open.
"Hermione!" Fred said and Healer Michaels pushed the bed right against Fred's. George came around to Hermione's other side and held her hand so Hermione won't hurt Fred even more.
"Okay Hermione. I'm going to come back and check on you in a few minutes." Healer Michaels said and left and the medi-witch got Hermione some ice chips.
"Are you ready for this George?" Hermione asked, chewing on some ice chips.
"Yes Hermione, you're my best friend/sister-in-law." George said with his own lop-sided grin, making Hermione smile and Fred grab Hermione's other hand. Hermione looked over at Fred, leaned over, and gave him a kiss. She hadn't kissed him in a long time and savored it until a contraction hit her. She sadly broke the kiss and squeezed George's hand and didn't squeeze Fred's but held his. After they became closer, Healer Michaels walked in with Medi-Witch Connors.
"Okay Hermione, push on the count of three. One, two, three!" Healer Michaels said and Hermione pushed and squeezed George's hand.
"One more time Hermione. One, two, three!" Healer Michaels said and Hermione pushed with all her might and squeezed George's hand hard. Suddenly, they all heard crying.
"One's out. Here comes the other. Push Hermione push!" Medi-Witch Connors said and Hermione did as she said until there was another cry. Healer Michaels handed Medi-Witch Connors the babies to get them cleaned up.
"Well done Hermione, rest now." Healer Michaels said and left. Just then Farah and Emily walked in and Emily climbed on the bed with Hermione and George moved his cramped hand. Medi-Witch Connors brought the babies back to Hermione and handed them to her.
"Twins?" Fred said shocked but happy. Hermione smiled and nodded.
"Fred, Emily, George, Farah, meet Abbey Grace and Allison Jean." Hermione said with a smile as she looked at her beautiful red headed daughters. One had Hermione's curls and one had a patch of straight hair. She noticed Abbey's eyes were the color of Fred's and Alli's were the color of hers. One day later, Hermione went back to the Cottage with Emily, Abbey, and Alli.
