Hey Connie, welcome officially to my fic!!!! Well, the next part is not much but I'm sure you're gonna find it very interesting. Kate, you were so right! James probably still wants to get to Mexico, but is he the only one....?

Albus stepped out from the fireplace to find his brother still fuming and his grandmother walking up and down with the baby in her arms, trying to soothe her from the shock of her first trip through the Floo Network. He looked around and sighed; the Burrow seemed the same as ever, while he felt like everything had changed since he was last there. He sat next to James, avoiding his stare. James was still angry that their Aunt and Uncle wouldn’t take him along and he was still angry with James for wanting to send him home.
Lily came in after a few seconds, coughing from the dust.
“Aunt said that as soon as they have any news, they’ll let us know”, she said.
“Yeah, awesome”, James grunted.
“Oh, come on, Hope, calm down”, their grandmother said to the still shrieking baby. “Arthur! Arthur, come down here!” she yelled then looking at the ceiling.
“I’m here”, their grandfather said getting inside from the door that led to the garden and startling Molly.
“Can you alert our other kids of the situation and…”
“I already did, dear”, he replied, as the door behind him opened again, but it wasn’t some fiery redhead that stepped in but Teddy. “And some of their closest friends like Neville and Luna”, he added. “They’re all heading this way”.
“Hello, Teddy, dear, how are you?” Molly said politely even if her voice was full of concern.
“I’m fine”, he replied as Lily run to hug him. “What happened?”
“The Death Eaters took mom”, James answered him before anyone else could.
“And they said that dad is alive”, Albus finished.
“What?” Teddy said turning to look at him wide eyed. “Harry…Harry is alive?”
“Either that or the Death Eaters were lying to lure mom to go with them”, James replied.
“Oh, come on!” Albus protested.
“Anyway”, James said looking at Albus pointedly. “The fact remains that mom is in great danger”.
“What should we do?” Teddy asked hastily.
“Don’t worry, son”, Arthur said. “Ron and Hermione have gone after them and they alerted the entire Auror office”.
“There’s nothing we can do”, Molly added and turned away to hide the tears that escaped her eyes.
Albus looked at his brother, who looked at Teddy and motioned him upstairs.
“Dad is alive, Teddy, I know it!” Albus said for like the millionth time. Teddy sighed as James closed the door behind him. There was nothing he would want more at this moment than for his godfather to be okay.
“You can’t imagine how much I wish you are right, Al”, he said.
“Yeah, but we cannot be certain”, said James.
“You were about to believe me before when we had no clue, why don’t you want to now?” Albus asked his brother and James sighed shaking his head.
“Because if he is alive that means he and mom are both in great danger”.
“So you prefer him to be dead?” Albus asked his brother incredulously.
“No, I didn’t say that”, James sighed again sitting on the bed. “It’s just…it’s easier to think of him dead right now, than hope he’s alive only to lose him again”.
Teddy sat down next to James placing his arm around him. Albus shook his head.
“But if dad is alive and well, he’ll be able to rescue mom and they’ll both…”
“Oh, for God’s sake, Albus!” James exclaimed standing up again. “Don’t you get it? If dad is alive then he is not well! If he was well, he’d rescue himself days ago and we wouldn’t have to grieve for his death! God, knows what they’ve done to him or how badly he’s hurt! I mean they almost tortured me to death, just because I was his son! What do you think they’re gonna do to him?”
Albus opened and closed his mouth a couple of times, trying to find words to reply, to tell James off, but he couldn’t, because he was probably right. Feeling his eyes welling up, Albus turned around and left the room, banging the door behind him. James exhaled and after he made sure the door was closed he turned to Teddy.
“What? Why did you have to be so cruel to your brother? You know how much he loves your father!”
“Oh, and I don’t?” James snapped.
“You do but…”
“I do and I love Albus too and I don’t want him to get hurt”.
“Why would he…?” Teddy begun to ask confused.
“We need to get to Mexico”, James said. “And you are going to apparate us there”.

Albus walked into the living room again after a few moments to find it filled with people. Most of them were Uncles and Aunts and cousins of him, but he spotted Neville and Luna too. They all seemed to be just as upset he felt, but he couldn’t do with their attempts to soothe him, like he was a baby like Hope. He left the living room, and got out in the garden to find Professor Jenks there.
He stopped looking at her back and thinking with disgust all that James had told him about their so-called relationship. Neville probably brought her along and she came to see if James was okay.
“Albus!” she said turning and seeing him. “How are you?”
“How do you think?” Albus retorted a bit more aggressively than he’d want. She seemed momentarily surprised by his tone but then she jerked it off and sighed.
“I’m sorry, I know this must be really hard on you”, she said, but Albus wasn’t really listening to her. An idea had just formed in his mind.
“What are you doing in the garden?” he asked her.
“Oh, I just…”
“Are you looking for James?” he asked and she froze and her face whitened.
“Why would I…?” she started to say casually.
“He’s inside but upstairs, probably convincing Teddy to apparate him to Mexico, where our parents are”, Albus said. He was no fool and he knew James very well. He knew exactly what he wanted to do and why he said what he said to make him go away. “That is if he hasn’t already convince him and they’re gone”, he added. He also knew that James could easily convince you that it’s night while you could obviously see the sun and that Teddy wouldn’t need much convincing to go off and try to save his godfather too.
Professor Jenks seemed utterly upset by this. She glanced to the house and then back at the boy.
“Albus, are you sure? We need to stop him! He’s gonna get hurt!” she said as she made to run into the house but Albus stood in her way.
“No, we need to go to Mexico too”, Albus said.
“What?” she shook her head certain that the boy was trying up a joke on her. “Why would we do that?”
“Let me think…um…because I’m sure Hogwarts would hate it that you’re dating a student?” he suggested and she gasped widening her eyes. “And after all I’m pretty sure that your boyfriend, would probably want you by his side”, he added.
He didn’t care at the moment that he was breaking the promise he had made to his brother nor that he was actually blackmailing one of his teachers. He needed to get to Mexico.

More soon...promise!!!! :*
