Chapter 23- Party Part 3

Fear gripped me twisting my insides as I heard people scream.

"Al, where are you?" Came James' voice form my left and soon a hand gripped my forearm.

"Oh Merlin, what's happening?" Scorpius muttered in my right ear, a bit panicked. "Do ya see Lily?"

I gulped as I eyed the room , I finally spotted here with a boy holding her hand in the corner. From where I was he was standing in front of protectively, which made up for the fact he was holding her hand.

"Yeah," I murmured, "she's in that corner a dark-blonde bloke's holding her hand though which is rather annoying."

Scorpius had an odd look on his face as he said, "Who is it?"

Does he think I have freaking magic eyes?

"I don't know!"

Scorpius swallowed and nodded, "Sorry."

"Its fine, mate."

James finally spoke up his eyes worried, "Its that kid in Slytherin a year behind the two of you."

"His name?" We asked in unison.

"I don't know, uh- its something like Blaine Hymns or something like that."

Scorpius looked annoyed, "Blake Higgs?"

James smiled, "Yes that's it. They were talking right before these lights turned off. She's friends with his brother, but the brother was dancing with her best friend, Kat. They apparently have a childhood crush going on."

I looked at James opened mouth, "Alright, thank you gossip queen. We are a bit-,".

A loud voice interrupted peoples panicking and my sentence, "Quiet!" the voice I recognized as my father's demanded, "Everyone calm down, and for Merlin's sake you lot are wizards, cast Lumos! Hogwarts Students and any others who know the spell, as well."

I had the strange urge to giggle at my fathers serious yet silly reprimand.

Quickly grabbing my wand I muttered in unison with the guys, "Lumos!"

The entire room lit up from tips of peoples wands making me feel a tad calmer. Everyone was looking around clear worry and panic on their well-made up faces.

Without hesitation James, Scorpius and I dropped our conversation and went over to my father who was getting his Aurors together. The three of us hid behind a pillar, as the Minister told everyone to sit down.

As we neared I heard them saying that this shouldn't - couldn't happen since the light source was running from magic, and only a really powerful wizard could've done it.

And the only person they knew who could do this was Harry Potter.

Dad rubbed his chin in thought and suddenly his face went stony and he muttered, "The Watchers are coming."

Uncle Ron looked at Dad sharply, "What was that Harry?'

Dad shook his head and said to his team, "We need to get everyone out of here."

Dad looked grave and I could see the worry in his eyes from behind the pillar me and the guys were hiding behind.

An auror spoke up who I was almost certain was Beth's dad, "Sir, are you sure?"

"Yes, Robert I'm sure." Dad snapped.

The redheaded man stepped back in surprise, "Of course sir, I apologize."

Dad sighed and ran a hand through his hair, "No-No its not your fault. This is just a bad situation and I have to worry not only about these people but my kids and wife."

The men and women all gave dad quick nods when Kingsley Shackelbot came over alarm hidden in his deep brown eyes.

"Harry, What's going on?" His deep voice said lowly.

Dad clenched a fist, "Those bloody Watchers have apparently decided to make them selves known."

I saw Kingsley's eyes narrow in anger, something I have never seen happen before, "How dare they!"

"Yes, I know." Dad said shortly.

"Dad, who are the Watchers?" Teddy said to my surprise he rarely calls Dad well dad.

I traded a look with James both of us thinking the same thing.

He must be really worried and scared to be saying that in front of other Aurors an the Minister.

I could literally hear dads voice soften and add a little affection as he regarded Teddy, "Ted, over the last few months I've been getting messages at crime scenes saying basically the same thing, "The Watchers are Coming." and "Your time of reign is over.", things like that. I didn't know much about them besides they were recruiting kids from Hogwarts and other schools. That's all of the information I've been able to gather." Dad looked at the Aurors, "We need to get these people out of here, I'm afraid people we have a new Dark Lord on our hands."

I could only hear the beat of my heart as dad finished, "And his or Her followers are called The Watchers."

"HARRY POTTER, YOUR REIGN IS OVER!"

I turned in what seemed to be slow motion to see spells whizzing around aiming for startled Party guests.

"Al!" I heard James scream from my left. I turned to be rugby tackled.

I saw a bright green spell hit the spot near the pillar where I once stood.

Someone shot the killing curse at me. Whoever these Watchers were they were out to kill.

Authors Note: Oh another sort of cliffhanger! Man I am Evil with a capital E. Alright I know its short but I needed to give a little insight on why Harry's so stressed as of late.

Thanks to all review I love 'em.

Everyone MUST read the new Percy Jackson book it was awesome! I missed Percy (:

Until the next,
