3rd November 2003
"Sirius, are you awake?"
Draco poked his head through the door, to find Sirius sitting up with the pensive sitting on his lap, Harry singing softly.
"Yes, ayah what's wrong?"
"I'm going to go find Daddy, I need your help."
"Ok."
Draco took the boy by the hand and led him downstairs.
"Blaise, wake up." Draco hissed into the room.
"Mmph what?" Blaise fell asleep again.
"Luna's dancing on the kitchen table naked" Draco hissed in his ear, having snuck further into the room. Blaise jumped up.
"What?"
"I need your help."
"Pfft, prat" Blaise gave him 'the look' the one which made Blaise infamous in the Slytherin common room for extracting sneaky, impressive and embarrassing revenge.
Draco finished the incantation and one emerald green light spun off towards the south.
"Blaise take Sirius back to bed."
"I'm coming with you."
"Fine, hurry up, and tell Luna where we're going."
Draco looked longingly at the faint green streak running across the floor. it was the same shade as his eyes.
17th November
"I think we're here." Draco whispered. He and Blaise were in China, in a deserted area, bar a single structure that looked like an old magical prison. It was set into the side of a hill, the stones were blackened with fire and green with moss. Blaise looked at him, looking miserable in the rain.
"How are we going to do this?"
"First priority is to find Harry," Draco answered.
"Right, so," Blaise whacked them both in the head, casting a disillusionment charm, "front door?" he asked with the stupidest shit-eating grin on his face.
Draco shrugged, "I don't have a better plan." Rolling his eyes, just like in school when they were about to do something stupid and repulsively Gryfrindor.
They crept forwards to the front… well it wasn't much of a door, more of a hole, a large hole in the wall.
Climbing over the rubble, they found themselves in a cell, with most of the bars rotted away. "Come on, most prisons are set out like forts. One hallway in a circle; we'll find him." Blaise pulled Draco to the left and they quietly made their way down the hall.
"I think he's underground, the door in the dreams wasn't barred." Draco said looking at the light from the tiny windows and the skeletons of rats littering the place.
They found steps and made their way down, running into Rodolphus Lestrange, who was sleeping in an open cell. They confounded him, and placed him in a full body bind before taking his wand and locking him in the cell. Then Blaise cast 'finite incantatem' on the hall. The screams rang loud and clear.
"You little whelp! How dare you even try that again! Do you think I'm stupid?"
"No, Bella, just masochistic. And I'm not a 'little whelp' anymore, I'm nearly 23, well depending on how long I've been here."
"Shut up, shut up, CRUCIO!"
Draco stood with his mouth agape for only a moment, and rolling his eyes at Blaise's disbelieving look Blaise and Draco ran forward, throwing caution to the wind and blowing out all the doors in the corridor until they found them. Harry was thrashing on the ground and Bellatrix standing over him, looking even worse than after she escaped from Azkaban in 1995.
"Avada Kedavra!" Blaise and Draco leapt aside and Blaise threw Harry Lestrange's wand.
"Crucio!" Harry pointed the wand at Bellatrix and watched her writhe on the floor, breathing hard. She eventually started crying and begging for mercy from her 'master'.
"Stupefy," Harry said and watched as Bella slumped on the floor in a bloodied heap.
"I need to get out of here." Harry said, collapsing on the ground. Draco helped him up and held all of his weight, Blaise none to carefully levitated Bellatrix through the hallways back to Rodolphus' cell.
"I'll take him home, then to St Mungoes," Draco told Blaise.
"I'll deal with these lot." Blaise assured Draco.
"Greyback will be around too, Blaise be careful."
Draco apparated Harry home, where the first thing he did was go to see his boys, pushing Draco away when he offered to help. Blaise came back a few minuets later. "Where's Harry?" Draco looked at him.
"I thinks he's still with the kids upstairs, why what's wrong?"
"He has to get out of here, fast," Blaise handed Draco Harry's wand, "the Ministry are convinced that he's a Death Eater and they're coming here to get him, they've got a permit or something to break the Fidelius Charm and wards on the house. In about 15 minuets this place will be swarming with ministry workers, Auror's and reporters.
"Bollocks!" Draco didn't even question his choice of curse words.
"I'll get the others you get Harry."
There was no hesitation, Blaise and Draco both ran upstairs, when Harry found out, he ordered Kreacher to take everything to the Potter vault as fast as possible, grabbed Sirius, who began crying and went to get Teddy and James.
Narcissa was already there, James balanced on her hip while she grabbed a coat from the wardrobe for Sirius and Teddy.
"Harry darling I'm thrilled to see you're alright… well alive"
Draco summoned his first aid kit and the family met in the drawing room.
"Hold onto me everyone," once everyone had latched on, Harry apparated them to- Diagon alley.
"Quick," He said and ducked into the Weasley's shop.
"George?" Harry yelled, pounding on the door.
"Harry?" The door flung open and George Weasley flung himself at Harry in a massive hug.
"Who's chasing you this time?" George asked, realizing Harry was in a hurry.
"Ministry," Harry said and George nodded.
"Downstairs, in the basement, We, Fred and I, made a secret passage way to Hogwarts, it took forever but we did it, joined it onto the one eyed witch passageway, McGonagall will help you."
"Thank you, George."
They went into the cellar, where George opened the passage up and they all crushed inside.
It was a first class secret passage, it was paved and even had torches. The door was simple and plain, from the other side you would miss it.
18th November 2003
When they came out, McGonagall was waiting for them.
"Harry," She hugged him. "Are you alright?" Minerva looked at him up and down, her lips thinned "No."
"Minerva I'll be fine, we need to hide."
"Ah, well, of course, Mr. Weasley flooed ahead of you."
She lead them to her office and gave them a vial of potion.
"Polyjuice?" Draco asked, eyebrows raised.
"Yes, all with the hairs of muggle children. I have had a stash of different hairs and such for emergencies. School robes will be given to you all, I find things are harder to see when they are hidden in plain sight."
"Brilliant," Luna breathed. "I'm pregnant; Draco will it hurt the baby?"
"This far, yes." Draco looked at the very pregnant Luna.
"Go to Andy's" Harry said, "tell her what's happened, and what about the boys, they're only little?"
"It won't hurt them at all," Draco said, "but could I suggest they are turned 11 instead of older, mostly because it will be difficult enough in a bigger body.
"I have tens, elevens, thirteens and fifteens." McGonagall said.
"Ohh, Can I be 11?" Blaise asked. McGonagall gave him a 'you-are-a-big-boy-now-stop-being-childish-look'.
Harry took the Twins away, and using Blaise as a demonstration showed them what would happen. They all eagerly took the potion, Sirius' hair getting shorter, he got drastically taller and chubbier, James got thinner and taller, but not as tall as Sirius and his hair went dirty blonde, Teddy grew taller, his hair got longer and turned a normal looking brown.
"Headmistress, The minister's on his way! You don't have much time!" A portrait shouted from the wall, the same one that had confirmed the attack on Arthur Weasley in 1995.
"Blaise, Luna, take the boys! Narcissa Llaria, go with them, go!" Harry ordered and the door closed behind the group of kids as Kingsley came through the floo.
"Potter! You're under arrest for practicing dark wizardry and using an unforgivable!" Kingsley had his wand trained on Harry who had his arms above his head.
"Minister!" Minerva exclaimed, "Hear him out, Harry would never-" Kingsley cut her off with a wave of his hand.
"Come on Potter," Kingsley's face softened slightly, he grabbed Harry's arm, and Harry flinched away.
"You're not making this any easier."
"I'm hurt, Minister, I was captured by Bellatrix and tortured since June." Harry shook his head, giving his wand to Kingsley. "Kingsley, you don't believe this do you?"
"Look," Kingsley said, though he looked away from Harry. "We have convincing evidence suggesting that you're a dark wizard, Potter, you can object in your trial." Kingsley sighed still avoiding eye contact.
Harry dejectedly flooed away with the Minister, aurors poured from the grate afterwards to take Draco and any accomplices to the Ministry, even though there was a thorough search of Hogwarts, no one was else was found.
