Chapter 60
Christmas came to the Burrow, even if it wasn't the best of times, they still had a little celebration to enjoy it. Even Austin, Alice and Kurt stopped by, but being Christmas still didn't stop Kat from asking about Sam or anything else. No one has a lead on her or Hermione and the guys. And from Voldemort, he just keeps killing people and is also looking for Harry. On the other hand, every time Fred and George would wrap their arms around Kat, she would feel like nothing mattered and just smiled. The three of them have been calmed, no fights nor arguments over stupid stuff. They could say they were as good as they were during their last year in Hogwarts. Three days after Christmas day, the three of them went to the shop attend it and make sure everything was alright. While the twins checked it, Kat went out of the store, just because she wanted, something pushed her feet out. When she rested from the glass to wait, she saw trough the locks of hairs in her face that were pushed by the wind, she saw two snatchers that looked familiar. She stood straight to have a better look and one of them was familiar, she knew him from somewhere.
"We're all set.", George said as Fred closed the shop, but she didn't listen, "Katy?"
Fred locked and quickly paid attention to her. She just started to walk fast as the snatchers turned into a corner. Fred and George called her as she started to run and they followed. When they entered the alley the snatchers did, they were half way, standing and talking. Kat raised her wand and a blue light hit the wall, scaring them and they started to run.
"Kat!", the twins called as they kept running behind her.
As they kept following the snatchers, Fred and George noticed they entered Knockturn Alley, but Kat didn't seem to mind. Chains flew out of her wand, trapping one of the snatchers and making him fall. She got on him and grabbed a hold of his hands while she pointed her wand at him. The other snatchers lifted his wand and got close, but Fred and George walked beside Kat with wands raised. Kat placed her wand on the floor and she looked in the bag and took her hand out with her crystal ball. She let out a little gasp of joy and she got up after grabbing her wand. Then she kicked the snatcher as she walked away. Fred and George walked out, still looking and pointing wands at them until they turned the corner.
"I found it!", she said, looking at it, "I knew he looked familiar."
"Are you sure its yours?", George asked
"Yes, I know-eyes that don't see, heart that doesn't feel, Hermione Granger."
The smoke cleared and it showed Hermione, Harry and Ron, all of them alright, talking to a blonde guy.
"It's Luna's father.", Kat noticed
"So they are at her house?", Fred said
"All this time they have been a few miles from our home?", George shouted and Kat chuckled
"Placed your hands there.", she said and both did it
They disappeared and appeared in front of Luna's house. It was almost covered in some weird plants and it was as tall as the Burrow and weird shaped. It just screamed 'the Lovegoods live here'. Kat grinned remembering Luna and that it would be good to see her.
"They will be so surprised when-"
"Kat", George interrupted her, looking behind.
Fred and Kat looked to see death eaters coming. Kat pulled them before opening the door.
"Hermione!"
She shouted and the trio and Xenophilius looked.
"Kat?-"
But a crash in the house interrupted Hermione's surprised. They all went to the floor as the crashed kept sounded and the death eaters broke the walls. Xenophilius walked out and started to yell 'I've got him!' from the top of their lungs, desperated. Kat started to crawl all the way to Hermione who met her half way. The six of them met, grabbing hands and apparated out of there together, ending up in a forest.
"What the bloody hell are you doing here?", Hermione snapped after jumping on Kat
Before answering, Kat hugged Harry and even Fred and George jumped on their little brother.
"I promised you I'd find you, didn't I?", Kat said with a grin to Hermione
Hermione slowly smiled, remembering the promised and how Kat kept it. She couldn't help not jumping on her again for a hug.
"You three are mad, you know", Ron said, "you passing for dead", he pointed at Kat, "and you two…do mum and dad know?"
"No"
"Wonder how they would be if they find out we ran out again to look for you."
"Again?", the trio shouted at the same time
"You looked for me before?", Hermione asked Kat
"Almost 8 weeks looking for you after you left"
"8 weeks?", Ron repeated surprised, "and mum and dad didn't know?"
"No", Fred grinned
"I've never seen mum so bloody mad", George added
"We just needed to find Kat"
"Find Kat?", Harry said confused
"It's a long story", Kat said rubbing the back of her necks
"Well let's just set up a tent so we can hear it", Hermione said as she started to walk
Kat went to Hermione to one side to put up the shield while the guys did the same. But a sudden tension overcame when snatchers appeared around them.
"Hello, lovelies", Scabior, a familiar snatcher to the trio, said to the two girls, as Kat stood in front of Hermione.
The girls looked around and saw more snatchers. Kat pulled Hermione as she started to run pass Scabior and the guys followed.
"Well, don't hang about. Snatch them.", Scabior said as the others listened
The chase begun and the six were running side by side while spells were thrown at them.
"I bet you missed this, huh?", Fred shouted to Kat who chuckled
"Yeah!"
As they ran, more spells were thrown and they got a bit apart from each other. Kat and Harry went under this bridge of trees and branches while two snatchers went over and threw spells. Kat stopped first, making Harry bumped with her when a snatcher entered and came their way.
"Avada Kedavra!"
Kat shouted the first thing that came to mind and the body of the snatcher fell back, dead. Kat pulled Harry to keep running and they saw the others ahead. Since a few snatchers were in the way, Kat and Harry threw them spells to slow them down from getting to the others. When they noticed, the snatchers stopped to look at them and they froze.
"Possibly a bad idea", Kat said
"You think?", Harry said panting
When the snatchers started to run their way, Hermione and the guys had stopped to turn to them. Kat grabbed Harry by his wrist and both turned into black smoke, and flew pass the snatchers.
"Death eater?", one voice came from the snatchers
Kat and Harry landed on their feet, and they all quickly kept running. Chains wrapped around Ron's feet making him fall.
"Ron!", George was beside him, so he stopped to turn to him along with Fred.
Kat also stopped and Hermione too a few feet away. Other snatchers were coming, Hermione thought they had no where else to run so she just threw a spell at Harry, making him hit the ground and his face started to twist as she tossed in the ground. When Kat was going to Harry, a snatcher grabbed her hair and her body, Fred was going to her, but another snatcher grabbed him. George and Ron were also grabbed. Scabior got to the group and looked at each other.
"What happened to you, ugly?", he pointed at Harry, "name?"
"Dudley, Vernom Dudley.", Harry said, trying to disguise his voice
"Search him", Scabior said as he walked to Hermione, "and you beautiful?"
"Penelope Clearwater, half-blood", she said with trembling lips as he caressed her hair and got closer
Ron started to struggle to get lose, but the snatcher grabbing him, threw him to the ground and kicked him. Fred and George tried to get lose, but the snatchers pulled them stronger.
"Nothing about a Vernom Dudley here", Greyback said with Harry's back in hand
Scabior let Hermione alone to go over to Harry and he took a good look at him. Something caught his eye, Hermione and Kat looked at each other, knowing what it is.
"On second thought…", Scabior said with a grin, "these aren't going to the Ministry."
