It had been a day since anyone had come. Master had told him the final battle had come. He had to go fight, He had bee in this strange home for four months now. Master swore if he died in battle that he would be taken care of. He would be safe. But he lay there wondering. He was scared. He did not know what would happen. Master had to survive. Master needed to come back. If Jade lost master he was not sure what would happen. Voldemort won and he would likely be claimed by him or that strange man that kept coming with master. Or if the light side won would the headmaster still try and kill him? Jade knew that he had once longed for nothing more than for Master to be gone and to be free of him but the thought scared him. Master was the only thing keeping him safe any more. Master protected him. He was frightened what would happen is his master was killed.

But was the hours passed he was worried. The battle should have been over by now. And if master was alive he would have come back. Maybe master had not told anyone. The elves would feed him. And he could have gone out. He had seen the book Master used to leave. There was even floo powder. But though Harry every once in a while poked his head out and thought about it, Jade came back. They had not been outside in months. Except the garden. They had no wand. They had no way of keeping themselves safe. They did not know if thy were in a muggle area. Jade was almost as scared as Harry was and that was never a good thing. Jade was supposed to be the brave one. But he would protect little Harry. Little Harry would do something foolish out of fear.

He was curled in a tiny ball in the sitting room. He could have been on the furniture but he had not. He knew master could come back at any time. He lay there watching, his eyes darting back and forth between the door and the fireplace. He waited for some sign.

Suddenly there was a pop and a little house elf appeared next to him but one Jade could not remember. "Who?"

The little elf looked at him. "My master be sending me to tell you be that he will be coming soon for you."

Before Harry could ask the elf anything more he had disappeared and Jade shook. He had no idea. Who did the elf belong to? He knew Master had more then one. He knew the battle was done. Master was on both sides. Master would be free if alive if either side won. But Jade had no idea if he was alive or what happened. He did not like the odd little house elf. He did not like that he had no idea who was coming for him. When he saw the fireplace floo flare to life he did the one thing he could think of and once again he scrambled under the couch and cowered there in absolute fear.

A figure he recognized stepped out from the fireplace. "Now where is he?"
