Chapter One

Number Twelve, Grimmauld Place

"WHAT?" demanded Sirius.

Dumbledore sighed. "Harry's missing."

"I thought he was supposed to be safe from Death Eaters?" asked Hermione

"It may not have been Death Eaters." sighed Dumbledore.

"We should search his room. Maybe he left a note." said Hermione.

Several people nodded in agreement.

Dumbledore said, "Well, then, how about Sirius," said because Sirius looked ready to hex him if he didn't let him go, "and young Mr. Ron Weasley and Miss Granger, since you two know him best. And myself, of course."

Nico ran as fast as he could toward the Big House, the piece of paper crumpled in his hand. He clenched his fists around it as he tumbled up the stair to the porch, where Chiron was sitting with six of the Seven.

"She's gone." he panted, holding out the note.

"Who?" asked Percy.

"Hazel!" Nico yelled. Frank snatched the note and stared at it. He paled.

The note read:

I don't think I have much time. They are coming. 6 or 7 men with guns, coming toward me. I don't know who they are or why Nico won't wake up. They're coming in

Frank read it out loud, voice shaking.

Number Four, Privet Drive

Sirius was seething. His godson had been snatched away, despite all of Dumbledore's protections. He was furious.

And now they'd arrived at this- this house, been "welcomed" by a horsey lady who he recognized as Petunia Dursley, and were now walking up the stairs to Harry's room.

Upon entering the room, they discovered that it was a mess.

The covers were torn and pulled off of the bed, and the pillow had been flipped across the room. Hedwig was locked into her cage and was freaking out. Hermione rushed across to her and unlocked the cage.

"Harry never locks her in. It must have been whoever took her." Hermione said.

One of Harry's textbooks flung on the floor with several pages torn out. His trunk was open, and his things had been riffled through.

The they saw it.

His wand was lying on the floor.

In the middle of a small puddle of blood.

Yeah, this is short. I think this will be an interesting story, and I already sort of know how it will play out, which is really a first for me.
