Chapter 18 continue

"What baby?"
"Neville, she's pregnant!" Luna said kind of irritated by this whole situation. "Gin, are you feeling any better?"
The woman shook her head with her eyes closed.
"Well, can you walk?"
"Neville!" Luna exclaimed indignantly.
"We need to get her out of here!" Neville pointed out and Luna turned to Ginny.
"Honey, can you?" she asked her; she shook her head again.
"What are we gonna do?" Neville asked Luna terrified.
"Harry", Ginny whispered opening her eyes and pointing at the mirror in Luna's hands. "Call Harry".
"That's right!" Lilly nodded. "Then daddy and his aurors can get us out of here!"
"I agree call him!" Neville said too.
"Okay, will you all calm down for a sec? First of all, Harry does not have a magic mirror!" Luna yelled widening her eyes more than usual.
"My mum does", Rose intervened. "She will be at the Ministry too".
"Right", Luna sighed. "Okay, then".

"I don't understand; who will betray us?" Harry asked Matthias confused.
"Well, we do have a hint, but..."
"Who?"
"I can't tell you yet Harry", Matthias said shaking his head.
"Why not?"
"Because you're gonna flip out...don't think I don't know you!"
Harry grunted but fell silent. There was a knock on the door. James walked in. His face was white as paper but he managed a small smile at them.
"Hey, dad, Matthias. I'm done testifying", he said sitting in a chair next to his father.
"Did it help?" Harry asked him.
"I don't know; they're gonna go through it and..."
"No, I meant if it helped you". Harry knew that it would be good for James to get it all out of his system, but still he understood first hand that talking about the things that hurt you was never an easy task.
"I don't know", James shrugged avoiding his father's eyes and looking at the floor instead. Harry looked at him with concern but decided to take pity on him and drop it for now.
"So we'd better get going then", Harry said standing up.
"Wait what? We have work to do!" Matthias said confused.
"No, you have work to do. I'm still on a sabbatical, remember?" Harry smiled.
"Harry..."
"So I'm thinking taking James to the Diagon Alley", Harry stopped him and turned to his son.
"Diagon Alley? Why?" James asked.
"You need a wand, don't you?"
"We're gonna go get one?" James said eagerly a genuine smile forming on his lips.
"Yeah, and the last time I checked you didn't have a broom...or a guitar, either".
"Oh, dad, you so rock!"
Matthias chuckled.
"Okay, fine", he told them. "But tomorrow I want you here from the very break of dawn!"
Harry nodded smiling and putting his arm around his son's shoulders they walked out.
"Can you buy me drums too?"
"Don't push it!" Harry said narrowing his eyes.
"Harry!"
Harry raised his head and when he saw Hermione running to him with a worried face and tears shining in the corners of her eyes his smile faded.

"Okay, Gin, we're almost there", Neville said encouragingly.
He and Luna were carrying Ginny as they walked as fast as they could to the tunnel's end, while Lilly and Rose trailed behind them.
"I don't think they followed us in the tunnel", Lilly said looking behind her shoulder.
"Let's hope they didn't", Luna breathed. "Look, we're there!" she added as they turned in a corner to face the end of the tunnel.
Soon they were out. Neville left Ginny on a rock and turned to Luna.
"Okay, I'll take Ginny and apparate at St. Mango's; you take the girls to Ginny's house".
Luna nodded and grabbed the girls.
"I don't want to leave mum", Lilly protested.
"It's okay Lills; Neville will take her to the hospital", the woman said and holding their hands she turned on the spot.
"What happened?" Neville asked. Luna was still standing there. She looked around.
"I don't know", she said and she turned on the spot again. Nothing. "Neville, I can't apparate!"
Neville looked at her frightened and taking Ginny's hand into his he tried to apparate too. Nothing happened.
"What's going on?" Ginny asked terrified. Neville looked at her; her face was growing paler and paler.
"It's gonna be okay", he nodded.
"Yeah...though I can't see how..."
"Luna!" Neville said warningly.
"Why can't we apparate?"
"Oh, you didn't think that we'll let you go that easily, huh?"
They turned and Rose gasped. The Death Eaters were there...and they were surrounding them. They haven't followed them into the tunnel because they've gone right to the end of it waiting for them and obviously they had disabled their ability to apparate. They were up to ten.
Luna run next to Neville with the girls, hiding them and Ginny behind their backs. Neville and Luna pulled their wands out and Rose and Lilly did the same besides the fact that they weren't allowed to use magic during the summer.
"Who would have thought that we could ever be that lucky?" a masked Death Eater said, walking towards them. He seemed to be the one in charge. "Look what we have here...two Potters, a Weasley, plus Longbottom and Lovegood!"
"What do you want?" Luna asked, looking at the masked men surrounding them.
"What else, my dear, beautiful blonde?" the lead Death Eater laughed. "Your lives!"
"Oh, that is such a cliche!" Luna said ironically, but truth be told in the situation they were in now, it did seem that they would in fact take their lives.
Pop! Neville and Luna turned along with the Death Eaters. Harry, Hermione, Matthias and a couple of more aurors had apparated close by.
"Who is it?" Ginny asked trying to see among their backs.
"The culverin", Luna smirked.

Harry looked around. He could spot a bunch of Death Eaters and in the middle Luna, Neville, the girls and Ginny. She didn't look so good. He felt his blood pressure rising. If something happened to her or the baby...
He conjured a curse with his wand and he aimed at the closest Death Eater. He got him and the Death Eater fell screaming. Soon the Death Eaters were moving against the aurors.
"Why do we always have attacks like these when there aren't enough aurors available?" Hermione asked Harry and Matthias as she shot a curse at the Death Eater running towards her; indeed they were only seven if you added Matthias, who came along because there was no one else in spite of Harry's disagreement.
"Coincidence?" Harry asked Matthias ironically.
"I don't think so", the old man said shaking his head.
The Death Eaters proved stronger than anyone of them would have thought. Some of the spells they were casting, Harry had never seen again. In spite that though soon Harry managed to reach the others and as the battle continued, Neville and Luna joining the aurors, he kneeled beside Ginny.
"Honey, are you okay? Look at me", he said placing his palm on her cheek.
"Harry, my stomach", she said clutching his hand hard and biting her lips.
"She's been like that for like half an hour", Lilly told her father.
Harry looked at her; she was in a lot of pain.
"Can you apparate?" he asked her; she shook her head.
"The Death Eaters disabled me, Luna and Neville", she said through greeted teeth.
"Hold on, baby, hold on...Hermione!" Harry yelled; the woman was fighting two Death Eaters at once. She knocked them both down and run to them.
"Ginny are you okay?" she asked her.
"She's not", Harry answered. "Hermione take Ginny and the girls and get out of here".
"Harry, I'd love to, but we're losing! The Death Eaters...they're using spells I haven't seen before!" she said and just on time a blue flash of light hit the tree above them.
Rose and Lilly screamed as Hermione pulled them out of the way. Harry managed to grab Ginny just a sencond before the tree fall on their heads.
"Was that a blue flash?" Harry yelled at Hermione from the other side of the tree suprised.
"Harry!" Matthias yelled as he came close enough for the to hear him. "Harry, they're using spells from the book!"
"What book?" Harry asked but unfortunately he already knew the answer.
"The book from Mexico!" the man replied and Harry close his eyes.
"But we have the book!" Hermione yelled as she aimed at one of the Death Eaters Luna was fighting.
"Yeah and we also have a leak", Harry whispered to himself, as the Death Eaters Hermone aimed was blasted backwards. "Oh, my God".
"Is that book you told me about?" Ginny asked looking up at him from his hug. He looked down at her but he didn't answer...not that he needed to; she read the answer in his eyes. The next moment she screamed with pain.
"It's gonna be okay", Harry told her kissing her forehead repeatedly. "Hermione, you need to take her out of here!" he yelled and the woman shot another curse at the nearest Death Eater and grabbing Rose's hand she run to them; Lilly following them a couple of meters behind.
Harry kissed Ginny again and got up as Hermione grabbed Ginny, supporting her. She clutched Rose's hand.
"Where's...?" Hermione started.
"Daddy!"
Harry turned. Lilly was trying to get to them but she couldn't since spells kept flying in front of her. He sent a curse after one of the Death Eaters that randomly threw spells all around; they were finally losing to the aurors and they were panicking. Harry ducked down and run to her. She took his hand just as another blue curse came their way. Harry would have used a shielding spell but he didn't know if shielding spells would work against those spells and he didn't want to find out now with his daughter's life in danger, so he just pulled her down. The spell hit the rock behind them but fortunately it didn't explode. Harry stood up with Lilly again holding her hand.
Luna screamed as a curse sent her flying some meters backwards. She got up after a few moments but that curse caused something way worse. As she screamed Harry turned to see if she was okay, but he chose the worst possible time. Another curse, white this time, was coming their way and when he turned bac there was no time to duck or to conjure a counter spell. He only managed to push Lilly out of the way, before the curse hit him right on the chest.
"HARRY!" Ginny screamed at the top of her voice, but as he collapsed on the ground he couldn't hear her.

Harry stood up after a while. That white curse had hit him but he felt just fine. He looked around. The Death Eaters were leaving but the faces of the rest he could see in front him didn't look happy. They were all coming towards him with a worried and sad look on upon their faces.
"Neville, what...?" he began asking his friend but stopped because something really weird happened. Neville walked right through him.
Harry gasped and turned. It was like someone turned the sound on and he could hear gasps and screams and Ginny yelling his name. The majority of them were gathered in a circle. Harry walked there and looked down to what they were all staring at. He gulped shocked and horrified as he saw that it was his very body.
"Oh, no", he said looking down at himself, as Lilly, Luna and Matthias were kneeling beside him. "Am I dead...again?"
