Here's the next part. I think I have it about right. But then again I never know. LOL. But I think I'm on track for where I want to go.
I don't own any of the characters except maybe a couple of idiot Auror's.
George staggered back at Harry's words, and Harry could have sworn the colour almost drained from his hair as well as his face.
"How bad was it Harry." Fred asked looking concerned as well.
Harry shuffled his feet slightly. "Pretty bad. The Healer returned with her."
"Oh man. Sorry mate." Fred turned back to look at George.
Harry leaned over and placed a hand on George's shoulder. "Katie and Alicia went with her. Lee's gone to tell her parents. But she, well she wasn't breathing to well."
George was shaking his head. "No. I mean…...how did I not notice? I know after yesterday I was trying to ignore her….but normally I always know where she is in a room."
"You were with Muriel, and your family….. There was a lot going on George…. Even I didn't notice till Ginny and I got back from taking one of your cousins to the floo. She had been sitting on her own when the wards broke." Harry tried to explain.
George continued to shake his head clearly not wanting to believe the news. Harry didn't even want to imagine what George was going through. If something had happened to Ginny and before they had gotten back together Harry knew he would have been going out of his mind.
"I've got to go, I've got know if she's alright." George suddenly seemed to come back to himself.
Harry took another deep breathe. "That's the next bad news. Kingsley doesn't want any of us going anywhere. In fact I think he's going to move us all to Grimald Place."
"So what I'm just meant to stay here? Like hell I am." George declared taking off towards the house.
Fred groaned. "I think you better go and stick up for him before he gets body tackled by a couple of Auror's."
Harry nodded and followed after George. "Wait up George. We will work something out." He called which seemed to immediately gain the attention of most of the Weasley immediate family.
Ginny was the first to jog up to Harry. "What's up?" She asked falling into step with his fast pace.
"Angelina took a wand spell to the chest." Harry explained.
"Great, Kingsley just told Mum and Dad none of us were to go anywhere." Ginny half groaned. "George will go out of his mind if he thinks one of girls is hurt."
"Yeah." Harry agreed thinking Hermione sure had the perception skills down. Ginny seemed like she hadn't picked up at all on the very clear hint Lee had made to Angelina.
By the time they reached the burrow George had clearly already had his first run in with the Auror's who had over seen the floo evacuation as he was being held back by one of them while he struggled.
"Sorry, no one else is allowed through except for the Minister when he is finished here." The other Auror was saying.
"But, you don't understand one of the people hurt was…..she is…." George took a breath and stopped fighting. "I have to know how she is." He finished.
Harry could see the frustration in George's face, the fact that he couldn't even put a label on what he had with Angelina, because well, as far as Harry had witnessed over the last few days there was a lot of misunderstandings going on between the two. But to Harry well, hell, it seemed that there was just a huge pile of secrets between a group of people who always looked like they were the greatest of friends.
"No one else is allowed through. Especially any of you." The Auror holding George stated again looking around at the people standing there. Harry and Ginny had now been joined by Hermione, Ron and Bill.
It was when George burst into tears and fell to his knees that Ginny dropped next to him. "Can't you see he's upset?" She accursed the two Auror's.
"What the hell?" Bill questioned. "I thought it was only Trio that were on house arrest. What's going on?"
"Angelina got hit by one of the wands." George blurted out, between sniffs. "I can't lose her too."
"She was pretty bad when Neville and I carried her in." Harry explained. "George was still with you guys and Muriel."
"Oh, that one, yeah, she didn't look good. The healer wasn't sure if she was going to make it or not." The Auror who was standing in front of the floo added. Harry felt like asking him if he had a heart.
"Helpful. NOT!" Hermione glared at the Auror.
"George mate. I'm sure they will let you know. Kingsley's already promised Mum to let her know how everyone is." Bill crouched down in front of George, placing a hand on his arm.
George shook his head. "You don't understand. She doesn't know…I didn't know till just before."
"Man, is he losing it or something?" Ron questioned Harry.
"Come on George, why don't you go and have a lie down. As Bill said they will let you know as soon as we know anything." Ginny hugged George closer to her.
"Yeah." Bill added running a hand through his hair then glancing up at the hard faces of the Auror's. "I will talk to Kingsley and a few others and see if we can get you to St Mungo's."
George groaned but slowly stood up, finding his feet again he made a dash towards the floo, but was once again stopped by the Auror's one even casting a 'Stupefy' spell on him.
Harry, Hermione and Ron had their wands out and trained on the Auror's in seconds.
"Bloody Hell." Ron exclaimed as Bill quickly caught the falling George. "What was that for?"
"We told him, no one was allowed to leave." The Auror's answered his wand now trained on Ron.
"Yeah well, if you hadn't noticed George just buried his twin brother and now we won't let him go and see if one of his best friends is alright. Doesn't mean you can detain him. You're here to bloody protect us." Bill barked at them.
Ginny looked from the Trio and back to the Auror's then smiled slightly. "You think you can take on Harry Potter, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley?" She asked the Auror's. "It sounds like you haven't been reading the news lately boys."
"George, George. Oh my…" Molly was heard as she ran up to her not moving son. "What happened?"
Harry quickly cast the 'Rennervate' spell reviving George. Before turning to see the rest of the Weasley's and Audrey enter the room with Kingsley.
"Just some people who think we are the bad guys." Hermione scoffed.
Arthur had pushed his way through by now. "What?" He questioned trying to take in the situation. "Who Stupefied George?"
"I think I would like to know that as well?" Came the authoritative voice of Kingsley. Looking at Harry, Hermione and Ron's wands still out, then at his Auror's wands pointed at the three with confusion written all over his face.
"They were trying to leave." One of the Auror's attempted to answer, with a shaky voice looking at Kingsley with a bit of fear now showing on his face.
Kingsley turned to Harry. "I told you to stay here, all of you?" He asked more confused than angry.
Harry lowered his wand and nodded. "I wasn't trying to leave. It was George, Angelina was hurt badly."
"Oh, George honey, one of you best friends." Molly cried taking her son into his arms George still seemed to be coming around again but clung to his mother. Harry couldn't help but feel for George. He looked terrible.
"Right I think everyone needs to take a deep breath." Kingsley sighed looking back at his Auror's. "I don't think the stunning was quite required here. George is upset not a danger. I suggest you go and wait outside. Now!" He finished with a tone that could only mean they would be dealt with later.
"Hmm, I suggest you talk to them about not making a situation worse as well. They pretty much just told George there was no hope for Angelina." Hermione grunted out.
"Oh, surely it wasn't that bad Honey. I'm sure she will be alright." Molly held George closer to her at Hermione's words.
"Right I suggest we all take a seat and talk about where to from here." Kingsley declared after the Auror's had left the house.
"I'll make everyone a cup of tea." Audrey added heading for the kitchen.
"That's fine Audrey just know any steps we take now will also include you by your relationship to the family. You all being safe is very important to the rebuilding of the magical world." Kinsgley added. "I imagine there would be complete panic and outrage if anything happened to anyone of you. I doubt I would keep my job anyway."
Arthur crouched down next to George. "I'm sorry mate, but Kingsley's right it wouldn't help to have you taking off somewhere on your own."
"I wouldn't be on my own. I would be with my best friends, at St Mungo's. I imagine there is security there as well." George muttered.
Arthur looked up at Kingsley. "Can't you send someone through to find out how everyone is? I mean they were all hurt here on our property." Arthur requested.
Kingsley nodded his head. "Yeah, I suppose that might help you all relax at least. But we will be moving you. Harry has suggested Grimald Place." He added before heading out the door.
While most of the Weasley's still focused on George, Hermione motioned to Harry and Ron whispering. "We have to come up with a plan to get George to St Mungo's if things aren't looking good for Angelina."
"I know." Harry added. "Those two really need to talk no matter how she's doing."
Ron shook his head. "Alright what am I missing? I mean I know they were all part of the same group, but Angelina's always been better friends with Fred."
Hermione groaned slightly looking at Ron. "Don't worry dear, we'll explain it later. Right now just try and work out a way we can sneak George to St Mungo's without making things worse for all of us. I want to be allowed to leave and find my parents on Thursday."
"Oh, I hate to think what it will be like going to Grimald Place, it will be all dirty again." Molly was now complaining to Arthur. "I wish we could just stay here."
"Mum, they broke the wards. Who else knows what they can do." Charlie reasoned. "We can all work to get the place in shape."
"Nah, Kreacher will clean it for us, He will probably even do the cooking for you." Ron piped up.
Molly, Bill and Arthur turned their eyes on Ron. "Have you forgotten how horrible he is?" Bill asked. "He's the worst house elf I've come across."
"That's because he was treated terribly. He was fine once we started respecting him a little bit." Hermione huffed.
"No, it's a good idea." Harry added in before calling out. "Kreacher."
Within seconds the Elf appeared. Harry almost wanted to laugh at the surprised looks on Ginny, Molly, Bill and Arthur's faces. Here was Kreacher clean, and almost smiling at Harry.
"Oh master. I have been worried about you. I expected to hear from you sooner. I have the house clean and stocked for you." Kreacher bowed down to Harry. "Will Miss Granger and Mr. Weasley be joining us again?"
"Actually I was wondering if you would put up with all the Weasley's along with us, and Percy's girlfriend for a little while. We will help with everything of course." Harry asked, still amused at the now even more surprised looks of those around them. Even George was now looking at Kreacher strangely.
Kreacher looked around the room, seeming to take stock of everyone there. Harry wondered if he was trying to work out if any of them would treat him like they used a few years ago when so many of them were staying at the house.
"Of course we won't disturb anything of Regulus' things. I was thinking you could have his room and store anything you wanted to keep of the Black family in there with you." Hermione added.
Kreacher's face lit up slightly, looking at Harry for confirmation. Harry was impressed at Hermione's idea. "Yes, I think that is a great idea."
"Master is kind to Kreacher." Kreacher bowed down to Harry.
"Brilliant thinking Mione." Ron smiled at his girl friend.
"Right, that's settled. You can expect us all to arrive in a couple of hours. Thank you Kreacher." Harry nodded to the Elf who took his dismissal and disappeared once again before their eyes.
"Wow, I'm sure I was just seeing things." Ginny looked at Harry. "Was that really the same Elf who was so horrible and worked against Sirius?"
Harry shrugged his shoulders. "We worked out last time we stayed there is a bit of kindness goes along way."
"Well now Harry will free him and start to pay him if he still wants to keep a House Elf." Hermione looked pointedly at Harry.
"Yes, Mum." Harry quipped back at her.
"Right, well I think we should probably get too and pack somethings to take with us. It's not fare on Kingsley's staff to have too many of them here. But Kingsley won't let any leave until he's sure we are safe. Grimald Place being unplottable and unseen to most people including Wizards is probably the best place we could be." Arthur stated looking to each of his family members one by one in his quiet way that Harry had learnt over the years meant there would be no arguing with even from Molly.
As Harry grabbed his rack sack from Ron's room and checked he had everything in it Ron packed a few things. "I'm only home for a week and I'm moving back out again. I thought all this crap was over." Ron muttered away complaining a little bit.
"Yeah, well I suppose it was too much to dream that killing Tom Riddle would mean the rest of his lot would just disappear." Harry answered him.
Hermione came rushing in, almost breathless from running up the stairs gasping out. "Kingsley's Auror's just come back through the Floo. Come down stairs if you want to hear the news." Then turned and apperated on the spot.
"Great, I think we need to get out licenses. By the time we get down the stairs we'll get everything secondhand." Ron grumbled.
Harry smiled at him. "I got mine when I was in the ministry the other day. You should have gotten yours while you were in with Hermione." Harry explained then held out his arm. "You can side long if you want though."
Ron groaned in frustration but took Harry's arm and they were down stairs in a second Harry was fine but Ron pretty much landed on Audrey knocking her over.
"I'm sorry….Harry's aim… must have been a little off." Ron tried to explain pulling himself up and holding out a hand for Audrey who was trying to straighten her skirt before standing up.
"Ron." Percy screamed at his younger brother.
Molly had held her arms up in the air. "No Apperating in the house. How many times do I have to say it?"
Harry who wanted right now to be invisible stammered out an. "I'm sorry."
"Ah….ah Hermione did it first." Ron tried to excuse him and Harry.
"Well I had just been down here. I at least had a good idea about where everyone was. Not to say I apperated to the side of the staircase. No one is ever standing there." Hermione declared, not impressed with Ron pulling her into it.
"That's enough we want to hear the news." Arthur silenced the room turning to Kingsley who as looking down a piece of paper which Harry guessed had just been handed to him.
Kingsley looked up at the silent and expectant room. "Let's see. The skin condition's all seem to be under control. All those suffering will need to stay overnight drinking skin repairing potions." Kingsley shivered as he read. "Horrible, horrible stuff." He added as a side note. "The burn like wounds from the wands are all pretty much healed and the patients are being released as we speak."
Harry could see the relief that washed over everyone's faces. Especially Molly's, as he looked around her realised that George and Ginny weren't with them. "And Angelina?" Harry asked.
Kingsley frowned. "She is the exception." His tone turning grave. "Her heart and lungs were affected being in the direct path of the spell. They have stabilized her for now and are looking into different ways of repairing the damage. Her parents are now with her."
"Oh, the poor dear." Molly cried wiping her eye's slightly. "Someone will have to go and tell George. We will have to get him to the Hospital soon. He will go out of his mind."
"Where is George?" Ron asked clearly just noticing He wasn't there.
"Ginny's with him upstairs, we didn't want him knowing that news had come back. Just in case." Bill explained.
Kingsley looked back at the parchment in his hand. "She is sedated at the current time, there is no point or George going in currently. I want to get you all to Grimald Place first, then my staff and I have a lot to workout for tomorrow's service, and to work on catching just whoever it was that crashed the service today. I'm sorry I can't spare the staff to take any of you to St Mungo's at the moment."
"I could go with him." Bill offered. "Charlie and I along with George will be fine."
Kingsley's face turned sterner. "Please, I have enough on my plate to worry about without George running off to check on his sick girlfriend. Please just get ready we will be leaving in ten minutes weather you have your stuff or not."
Please let me know what you think. It would be nice. I know I get alot of hits and there are about 137 people alerted everytime I post a part. But really I only hear from a few.
Hopefulled
