Information
(With Fay)
After leaving the British Ministries Fay went back to France. She quickly went to the ministry building and even got an emergency meeting with the minister of magic. The man was wondering what was going on and he didn't have to wait long.
"Sirius Black came to me and told me the minister of magic in Britain wanted to talk to Harry Potter and his guardian." She said.
"Why?" He straightened up. 'They best leave that boy alone.'
"They wanted to warn us. Apparently they had a spy send them a message. That message was that one of their dark lords is back." She said, "The one that they don't speak the name of."
"I see." He knew which one but didn't say the name just in case the man still had a taboo on his name.
"They had no proof since they feared they would be caught but apparently Minister Fudge trusts him and believes him." She said.
"He trusts a spy?" The minister asked.
"Yes." She answered.
"If he is back I am glad they warned you." He said.
"So am I. They want to keep it quiet." She said.
"Because they have no proof?" He asked.
"That and if he is back they are afraid making it known will cause panic and bring the man out of hiding. They want to prevent his raids and get an upper hand." She said.
"That is a good point." He said, scratching his beard.
"I told him I was telling you and Harry's school." She said.
"Was he upset?"
"Shockingly no. He was understanding." She said.
"That's good. I shall send him a message and let him know I will agree to keep quiet as long as it doesn't cause harm." He said.
"Alright."
"I will also send a warder to check the wards around your home." He said.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome."
"I must leave." She said.
"Of course." He nodded.
Fay stood up and left. She quickly contacted the headmistress and explained the situation. She too agreed to keep quiet as well as vow to ensure Harry stayed safe. Luckily Harry was surrounded by many magical creatures that weren't affected by wizarding magic. She then called the others over. She told them and Severus was very confused.
"Odd." He said.
"What is?" Lucas asked.
"My dark mark never flared up." He said.
"That is odd. Maybe he isn't back." Sirius said.
"Or he didn't call me." He said.
"True." He sighed.
"What do we do?" Lucas asked, scared for his mate.
"Like I said, a warder will come here to check the wards. Afterwards we will do a fidelius charm." She said.
"That sounds good to me." Remus said.
"Me too." Sirius said.
"We will need more." Severus said.
"I know." Fay sighed. "I was really hoping this day would never come."
"We all have." Her son said.
"Would it help to know that neko's are immune to wizarding magic, including the unforgivables." Alex said.
"Yes it does." Fay said.
"We will still need to be cautious but at least that is something." Nick said.
"It is. It really is. What about Neville?" She looked at his parents and his grams.
"Fairies are immune." Alice said.
"Good." That was a relief.
"Yes it is." Frank said.
"We should tell the boys." His wife said.
"I agree." Augusta said. "They have a right to know."
"I know." Fay sighed.
"We should tell them later today." Frank said.
"Alright."
The group stayed like that for a while. They wanted the kids to not worry and just be children but they knew that would only put them in more danger. They all hoped that Voldemort wasn't back. When they did leave Severus began plotting. He cared deeply for those boys and he would do anything to keep them safe.
(Later that Day)
"Boys, we need to talk." Fay said.
"Are we in trouble?" Neville asked.
"No." Augusta assured them.
"Okay." The two said and sat down in front of the adults.
"Earlier today Kingsley Shacklebolt came to me. He told me that the minister of magic of Britain wanted to see me. I went and he told me some bad news. He wanted to tell Fay since she is Harry's guardian so I went to her. He told her what he told me." Sirius said.
"Do you boys know what a spy is?" Lucas asked.
"Yes." They said.
"Uncle Severus told us." Harry revealed.
"He said he was one." Neville said.
"Well the ministry had one within the dark lord's inner circle. They apparently saw the dark lord had returned. They couldn't get proof in fear they would be caught but they did send a message to the minister. He wanted to tell me so that we could keep Harry safe." The French witch revealed.
"Ah man." Harry pouted.
"Act more scared." Neville glared, his wings fluttering faster than usual.
"Sorry." He shrugged. "We are immune to wizarding magic."
"True but he did recruit magical creatures before." He reminded him.
"Trolls, giants, and werewolves." The neko said. "We learned how to handle them this year."
"I know but he could recruit others this time." He said.
"True." He sighed. "Still not that scared."
"I know." He pouted.
"Harry, this is serious." Fay said.
"I know. I'm just not going to let the fear get to me." He said. "I won't underestimate him if that's what you mean."
"Good. He is a very dangerous man." She said.
"I know. So I'm guessing the party will be small." He said.
"Yes it will be." She said.
"Are we telling people why?" He asked.
"No." She answered.
"Okay." He was sad that he wouldn't be able to see his friends for his birthday.
"I also want you to talk to your mind healer." She said.
"Knew it." He grumbled. "Okay."
"Good." She knew Harry was just masking how he felt.
"Anything else?" He asked, hoping that there wasn't.
"No. Just be careful." She said.
"Okay." He went over and hugged her tightly.
"I love you." She said.
"I love you too." He nuzzled her chin.
"Go on and play." She said.
"Okay." The boys ran off.
"That boy is scared." Severus said.
"I know." Fay sighed.
"We all are." Sirius said.
"That is very true." Nick said.
"Let's just hope he doesn't ever find us." Alex said.
The others agreed. Sirius and Remus went to keep an eye on the boys. Alex and Nick held their children close. Severus left to continue plotting. The others just hung around as added protection just in case.
