Chapter 27 part 3

"What's going on?" Hermione asked Teddy, but he just shrugged. He looked flustered and like he had just woken up, so Harry figured Ginny must have sent somekind of a message to get him to come at their house as fast as possible; not a good omen.
"I don't know", he said looking at his godfather apologetically. "James is sick; but I can't figure out how or why".
"Harry, he's not...he can't...he can't move his legs and..." Ginny started saying but Harry shook his head and walked pass her and into James' room.
The boy turned to look at him just as Harry crossed the room and sat next to him. His face was pale but other than that he didn't seem all that sick and if Harry didn't know any better he would think that it wasn't anything disturbing; yet he knew that it was."Hey, dad", James murmured.
"Hey", Harry said managing a smile, as all the others came in too. "What's wrong?" he asked him but James shrugged and it was Teddy who answered him.
"He can't move his legs", Teddy said. "He had fever but he's not burning, not yet at least, and apparently he had migraines durning the entire week but he didn't say anything. Dunno Harry, he has all those symptoms and yet I can't figure out what's wrong with him".
"It's not your fault Ted", Hermione whispered. Harry didn't say anything, he was looking down at the boy, who had fixed his eyes on his.
"Well, okay, but we can't leave him like that!" Ginny said irritated. "Maybe we should take him to the hospital, maybe there Teddy will be able to..."
"You know, don't you?" James asked his father. "You know what's happening to me". Harry didn't respond, just stared at the boy.
"What? How would you know?" Ginny asked.
"The Death Eaters did it, didn't they?" James went on ignoring his mother.
"Jamie..." Harry whispered.
"Tell me what they did to me".
"I don't..."
"TELL ME WHAT THEY DID TO ME!" the boy yelled. Harry exhaled closing his eyes, then he looked at James again.
"Give me your hand", he said with a quiet voice. James hesitated for a second and then allowed his father to take his arm. Harry pulled his wand out of his jeans, holding the boy's wrist tightly. "This will hurt", he told James but he nodded him to go on.
Harry touched James' arm with the tip of his wand, slowly cutting the boy's skin.
"What the hell are you doing?" Ginny asked but neither Harry nor James replied, as blood colored both their hands. Harry looked at the boy, who hadn't even moved as his father opened the wound in his hand. He sighed.
"Accio", he whispered holding his wand above James' arm. The boy screamed and a tiny, squared object emerged from inside the boy's hand.
"What the hell...?" Teddy said stunned. Harry healed the boy's hand and then looked at the thing in his hand feeling panic building up inside him. It was true; this was the device Dolohov was talking about. If they didn't get the book, James would...
"What is that?" Ginny asked terrified. Harry just stared at James; how could he do it? How could he tell his son that the most dangerous known venom was running through his veins? James looked at his father with a tired look on his face and Harry realized that the boy had understood way more than he thought.
"They did this in case they didn't succeed at the Ministry", James said.
"How...?" Hermione asked confused.
"How do I know?" James finished her sentence, looking at his father, who hid his face in his hands. "It's pretty obvious. I kept wondering why they did it, why they kidnapped me...and since they did, how come it was so easy for dad to save me? Except if they wanted him to do it. It's...I'm plan B, aren't I?"
"I don't understand", Ginny said. "Will someone please explain to me what the hell is going on and what's happening to my son or do I have to start yelling?"
"He just did", Harry said raising his head and staring right at his son. "They planted this thing inside him and when Dolohov turned it on, a really big amount of the Pozna venom was released into his system".
"WHAT?" both Ginny and Teddy yelled together.
"The Pozna venom kills through paralyzing nerves, that's why James can't move his legs", Hermione said. "If he doen't get the antidote it will spread to his entire body and kill him when it reaches his heart".
"Well, then give him the antidote!"
"It's not that simple", Teddy shook his head. "Only the maker of the poison can provide us with the antidote, that's the thing with the Pozna venom".
"And they want the book in exchange for my life, right?" James asked his father still holding his poker face on.
"Right", Harry nodded. James closed his eyes and laid back to his pillows.
"Well, then, I'm dead", he said.

Chapter 27 part 4

"Harry, wait!" Ginny yelled chasing after her husband.
"I can't, Gin", he replied without stopping. "I have to go back to the Ministry, I have to talk to the Minister, see what..."
"Hold on!" she said and grabbed his hand, finally catching up with him in the kitchen.
"What?" he said turning to look at her. She shrugged, her eyes still kind of watering. He sighed and hugged her. "He's gonna be okay", he whispered to her and she nodded. He kissed her lips and her cheek and then he apparated with a pop. Ginny wiped her tears, did her best to put on a reassuring face and went back upstairs.

Harry did not apparate back to the Ministry as Ginny thought, but at their basement. He looked at the squared thing in his hand; there was something attached to its back. It probably was what Dolohov was talking about and he wasn't sure if he wanted the Ministry to know what it was. He detached it and then looked at it.
It was what he thought it was, but still he couldn't bring himself to believe that Dolohov knew what a computer chip was and that he had actually managed to make one himself. Yet as he remembered that the whole design of the device was stolen from Muggle military operations and that Artemis' step parents were Muggles, it made more sence to him; apparently the new leader of the Death Eaters wasn't so hateful with Muggle creations as Voldemort used to be, on the contrary she was taking full advantage of her knowledge on them.
He looked around at the basement. Some boxes were dropped on the floor and some others were turned upside down and the stuff inside were lying all around. He exhaled angirly; Ginny must have been looking for baby stuff by her own, while he had told her that he would do that job, because she shouldn't lift weight. There wasn't a magical way to get the job done. since they had placed a spell on all the boxes that didn't allow any kind of magic to be used on them. It was a precaution to avoid curses and stuff but when Harry was casting it he hadn't realized that it would mean that they would have to move the boxes with their hands nor that he couldn't use magic to undo the spell. As he cursed once again the stupidity of that spell- and Ron for suggesting it- he spotted what he was looking for and luckily it was easy to get it too.
He lifted a box and there was the box with the laptop, Hermione's parents had given their granddaughter Rose for her last birthday and her mother had so nicely dropped off in their basement saying they didn't have room for it in theirs; apparently she couldn't convince Ron that it wouldn't explode. He turned it on and placed the chip in.

It was a shorty I know and I had a lot of details but I will post more tomorrow and I promise it will be wayyyyyy more interesting....

Ooooh whats on the chip?!?!?!?!?

Okay so it took longer than I thought...sorry....but here it is....

Chapter 27 part 4 continue

Hermione was glaring at Dolohov but he was just smirking.
"How could you do it?" she said finally. Dolohov turned a bit on the chair he was chained on and looked at her cockily.
"What exactly do you people think you're gonna achieve by keeping me chained? That's not gonna cure the boy".
"No, but at least you are not comfortable", she said nastily and Dolohov laughed.
"Where's Potter? Why is he depriving me the joy to see despair in his eyes?"
"He will come", Hermione said. "Tell me where I can find the antidote before he comes; believe me you don't wanna mess with him".
"From all that has happened, that is what you got? And you're supposed to be the smart one!"
"Harry will kill you for what you're doing to James".
"Oh, look at me shiver!" Dolohov laughed.
"Listen to me, you are not getting the book, we are not setting you free and James is not going to die, so deal with this!"
"Fine" he smiled. "Now you listen to me my sweet Mudblood. I am getting the book, you are setting me free and then James won't die. The question is can you deal with that?"
Hermione lost her words for a moment but it didn't matter because the door flew open and Harry burst in.
"Harry, where...?" Hermione started but she didn't get to finish her sentence because Harry with two moves unchained Dolohov and then grabbed him and threw him against the wall. He just laughed at Harry's anger.
"I take it you watched what was in the chip", he said but he didn't had the chance to smirk because Harry puched him right in the face, breaking his nose.
"HARRY!" Hermione screamed but he ignored her and started kicking the already bleeding man until aurors came in and grabbed him. "Harry, have you lost your mind?"
"No, but he's close to it", Dolohov laughed from the floor in spite the blood that run down his face.
"What else did you do?" Hermione asked him irritated as the auros were trying to hold Harry back.
"He just saw what we did to the boy", he said.
"What? What do you mean?"
"He filmed it!" Harry yelled. "He actually filmed it!"
"What?"
"Oh, this really isn't your day Hermione, is it?" Dolohov laughed at her. "There was a little chip attached to the device you found inside the boy's arm and there was a video in it".
"Let go of me", Harry ordered the three aurors the were trying to restrain him; surprisingly his voice sounded calm, but still they hesitated. "I'm fine now, let go of me!" They did and Harry walked in front of Dolohov, this time looking at him with contempt. "Before this war is over I'm gonna make you regret the day you dared to lay one finger upon my son", he told him.
"Why wait?" Dolohov asked him. "Oh, yeah, because if you kill me now, you also kill every chance the boy has to survive", he answered his own question.
"How...how could you? Why?" Harry asked him.
"Because of you", Dolohov replied, his smirk coming back to his face. "That's what hurts the most isn't it? Knowing that what you just saw, what we did to your son, all was because of you".
Harry pulled his wand out and pointed it right on Dolohov's chest.
"I need you alive but that doesn't mean that I cannot do to you what you did to my son" he told him.
"Oh, please, aren't you supposed to be better than that?"
"Don't talk to me like you know me, you scum!" Harry told him. "As soon as I won't need you anymore, you will pay for everything, I swear!"
And with that he punched Dolohov on the face once more. Hermione and the aurors made to move forward and stop him but he pulled back and walked out. Hermione hesitated for a moment and then followed him.
"Where are you going?" she asked him catching up with him.
"To talk to the Minister", he said. "I'm gonna see if he will allow me to trade the book with the cure for the poison".
"What? Harry, you're actually considering...?"
"Hermione", Harry said stopping and looking at her. "I just saw a video that showed that monster in there torturing my son! He...he...you can't even imagine...James was unconscious and they still wouldn't remove the cruciatus curse off of him. And when the cruciatus wasn't enough for him, he started using the Sectumsempra spell on him! He kept butchering him and then healing him and then again and again and...Hermione...I can't...I can't let James die, I can't let him go through so much pain again...I won't!"
"But", Hermione whispered with tears running down her face. "What if you give them the book and then they bring Voldemort back?"
Harry shrugged.
"Then let them bring him back", he said. "I can't lose Jamie. I won't".

-Angie-

*sobs* evil evil Dolohov! he can't trade the book but then if thats what it takes to get his son back - hes beat voldemort once he can do it again!

Chapter 27 part 5

Harry was standing with his back against the room's wall, his eyes unfocused as his mind was rushing through the latest events. James was dying. He was dying and there was only one way to save him; trade the book with the antidote...but...but...there was this huge BUT that was holding him back. Hermione had actually told him that it wasn't a good idea. And the Minister...well, yeah he had been all sympathetic and stuff but if he could ban Harry from accessing the book he would have done it. He couldn't blame him though; if he wanted to be honest with himself he knew that he, Harry, wouldn't even consider giving up the book, had it been someone else's child.
But it wasn't someone else's child, was it? No, it was his child. It was his Jamie and he just couldn't watch him die. He rubbed his eyes as pictures from what he saw in that chip came back to him, no matter how much he wished he could just forget about them. In spite the fact that he wasn't even moving he felt his heart beat rising. The things they had done to him...he already knew they had tortured him badly from his wounds but never had he thought of the thing itself. He could still see them kicking the boy in the face or spitting on him or make him bleed so much from Sectumsembra that a small pond of blood was created around him. He could hear his son screams -they seemed to be echoing in his head- he could still hear him crying out in pain or yelling for him; and yet he was so strong. Not once had he pleaded with them, not once had he begged, he could barely control his body and yet he wouldn't lose his cheek.
"Dad?"
It took Harry a few seconds to realize that James had woken up and was talking to him. With a huge effort he forced a smile upon his face as he crossed the boy's room and sat next to him on the bed.
"Hey", he said. James searched his father's face with his eyes but did not comment on whatever he got from it.
"Hey", the boy said then.
"How are you feeling?"
"The fever's gone for now" he responded. "Where's mum?"
"Downstairs", Harry said. "She's making you a chicken soup".
"Right", James grinned. "She realizes that I don't have a flu, right?"
"I'm not so sure about it", Harry responded. James looked at his father's face again and then took his hand into his own cold one.
"Dad", he said. "It's okay".
"What is?" Harry asked confused.
"This", the boy replied. "Me. It's okay".
Harry stared at him for a moment.
"Yeah, you're gonna be okay" he said then, even if he had sensed the true meaning behind James' words.
"No, dad", James shook his head. "I won't; because you can't give that book to them and you know it".
"James..."
"I mean, when you come to think of it, it looks like it's been decided from the beginning, since Dolohov kidnapped me. It's not like you guys haven't already contemplated with the prospect of...of losing me".
"Don't talk like that", Harry said with a stern voice.
"Dad, they almost killed me back there", James said and an image of the boy lying on the floor drown in his own blood flushed vividly in front of Harry's eyes. "You saved me then, but I don't think we can cheat death twice".
"You're gonna be okay", Harry repeated taking his eyes off him and staring at the opposite wall instead.
"I can't be okay", the boy insisted. "I don't even want to be okay if that means that dozens of other people will die!"
"Now you're just being dramatic", Harry sighed and stood up.
"Dad, if you give them the book, who's there to tell me that it won't mean that I'm to lose Albus or Lily or mum...or you? Can you promise me that once Voldemort is back we'll be okay?" Harry stared at him. "You can't" James said. "And that's why...I have to die".
Realization struck Harry hard like a slap in the face. James' words made it feel more real; like it was really happening, his son was really dying. He shook his head.
"No, you won't..."
"I have to" James said with a steady voice ignoring the tears that run down his face. "Maybe it's for the best".
"No..."
"Maybe it just wasn't meant to be for me".
"Stop it", Harry said as he walked up and down the room.
"You know I'm right".
"No, you're not".
"If the lives of way more than just one person were at stake but you didn't know them would you even consider giving up the book?"
"It's not the same", Harry sighed.
"It is the same. The greater good comes above one life, dad".
"This is different", Harry insisted.
"Why? Because I'm your son?"
"YES!" Harry yelled. "Yes, because you're my son! YOU'RE MY SON!" he screamed as tears run down his own face too since he was unable to keep holding them back. "Jamie..." he whispered as he rushed back to the boy's bed and sat next to him again. "Jamie, I've lost more than you can possibly imagine during the last war with the Death Eaters and believe me I would gladly give up my own life in order to stop them now but...but nobody told me that I would have to give up yours. In everybody's life there's something that goes above the greater good and that's what our family is to me. I will not sacrifice you for the greater good. Don't ask me to; I can't".
"So what? You're willing to jeopardize everyone else's life?" James asked him. Harry shook his head and bit his lower lip but couldn't find what to respond to that. "Dad, I don't wanna die", the boy said. "I don't; but I don't want you guys to die for me".
"James..."
"You can't give them the book".
"And what?"
"And I'll die", the boy said.
"Oh, God", Harry whispered closing his eyes.
"Dad", James went on taking his hand in his again. "It's not your fault" he said. "It's not!" he said again as Harry shook his head. "You saved me from that place in Austria...you brought me back, even if it seemed impossible. Yes, I am dying again but at least...at least I'm home; I'm with you, my family", James said, fresh tears shining at the corners of his eyes. "You...you just can't save me this time and you have to accept that".
"I can't lose you either", Harry shook his head and placed his palm on the boy's hot cheek; the fever was back.
"You know what's the right thing to do. You just...you just have to accept it", James said.
"How?"
"How what?"
"How am I supposed to just stand there and watch you die? How can I ever accept that, Jamie?" Harry asked him.
"You're strong", James smiled. "I'm not afraid for you".
"James..." Harry whispered feeling the urge to roll his eyes; the boy just couldn't understand. "James...I...I love you so much".
"I know, dad, but..."
"You're my son", Harry said. "When you were born, I promised myself that I'd do anything to keep you safe and I have already failed to do that once, when they took you. I can't let it happen again".
"Dad, you know as well as I do that it wasn't you that got me to Austria, it was my hard head; and you have done everything humanly possible to protect me, but sometimes I guess you simply can't go up against fate", James said. "You can't just put everyone in danger to save me".
"But..."
"There is no but dad" the boy said. "They can't have the book and that means that I have to die. You have to let me die".
"No", Harry said and hugged his son tightly, lying on his chest. "No, no, no".
"It's okay", the boy whispered. "It's okay, dad", he said. "I love you too", he added after hesitating a moment not knowing if that would make things better or worse.
Then none of them spoke again and within the next half hour the boy had fallen asleep again. Harry was watching him breathing in and out. He had made his choice; actually he knew that he would make that choice from the very beginning. It would just be so hard to go through with it. And Ginny...what would Ginny say, how would she handle this? New tears came to his eyes but he didn't allow them to fall. He couldn't get all choked up again; they would need him strong. He couldn't stay there anymore either; he couldn't look at James' sore face any longer. He kissed his son's forehead and with one last glance at him walked out of the room just in time to come face to face with Ginny, who was carrying a disk with food.
"He's sleeping", he told her.
"That's okay", she shrugged. "I'll just wait for him to wake up".
"Gin..." Harry started but stopped.
"What?"
"Nothing", he said shaking his head. How could he tell her? What would he tell her? "I have to go" he said.
"Wait", Ginny said. "Where are you going?"
But he was already walking away from her...
