"what?" Harry asked, the shock of what Remus had said hitting him like a ton of bricks "What? what? erm ok to rephrase that WHAT?"
"we don't know what happened, one minute everythings normal, the next the dark mark appears in the skys in london and death eaters start attacking people, but these arnt just any people, they're attacking the most powerful witches and wizards they can find" Remus was trying not to recall the horror they had witnessed the past 5 days since he had returned. "So has anyone actually seen him?" Harry asked "Yes, Harry, Yes he's been leading the attacks" Remus said "we don't know why he chose now to come out into the open he never did before you killed him but this time he has, every major attack he has been the battering ram at the front of the attack" "I don't understand" Ron said "James and Lily are stood right there! they are safe" Remus just stood there about to attempt to answer the question that seemed to hang in the air but Hermione got there first. "Ohhh" everyone turned to face Hermione "Just because they're safe now doesnt mean they'll stay that way, the fact that he has returned in our time just proves that we fail" Hermione finished with a look of absolutly hopelessness on her face But Remus soon had a remindy for it "yes that's exactly why we are here" He said walking toward Hermione, McGonagall sent us here knowing that you four could not win on your own, the choses that have been made by not just you but the death eaters here aswell resulted in the reserection of Voldermort, but with me and Ginny here, choses will be made differently events will occur differently. Having us here means that things will happen differently and hopefully that would mean that Voldermort will once again be defeated" "I have missed you Remus" Hermione smiled hugging her favourite warewolf. "and i you, all four of you, for now i think questions are best left till tomorrow i think it's time everybody got some sleep then tomorrow we hunt"

The sun rose rather early the next day, Harry was fast asleep in the gryffindor bedchambers when a scream woke him, he jumped up at approximatly the same time as Ron and they both dashed from the room, by the time they reached the common room the Mauraders had joined them, everyone was searching the room but no one seemed to be able to determine where the scream had originated. "Wait..." Said Ron "Wheres Hermione?" before anyone could answer he had dashed up the stairs to the girls dormatry "Ron wait" Shouted Lily "Me and Ginny have just come from there, she wasnt in her bed, we assumed she was down here already" Ron came running back down the stairs, "Where is she then?" "The scream deffinatly came from this room" Sirius said looking around the room again as if to see something he missed the first time.
"Check the map" Harry said to James, who in turn looked to Remus, who removed the map from his pocket and unfolded it, and speaking the words "I solemly swear that i am up to no good" Remus spread out the map but Hermione was no where to be found. "Magic that's strong enough to block the map" James said, "That's a new one" "What about a locator spell?" Harry asked, both he and Ron knew the spell, they had been taught by Hermione which travelling in search of the Horcuxes last year. Ron nodded in agreement, "We need something of Hermiones" Harry said "Something she loved dearly" "But we don't have anything" Ron exclaimed, "we only have what we came here with, the clothes on our back"
"Does it only have to be an item she loved?" Ginny asked "yes" replied Harry "The more she loves it, the stronger the spell" "Use Ron" Ginny said turning towards her brother "would that work?" Harry asked Remus "It's worth a shot, but i have a feeling it may hurt" Remus replied Harry nodded his agreement, as did Ron that decided Harry took out his wand, "Everyone stand back" Harry said with a great deal of command in his voice, so much so that everyone stepped back and stood flush with the wall, "You ready for this?" Harry asked Ron. "It's Hermione" was Ron's only response Harry reached out his hand and Ron gripped it, Harry then lifted his wand and pointed to the ceiling, he closed his eyes and muttered the incantation "diligentis invenire" suddenly Ron dropped to his knees, still conscience but clearly in pain, Harry held the spell strong when all of a sudden a golden glowing orb appeared in the room, Harry dropped his arm and Ron stood, the glowing orb made it's way over to Ron and floated at his eye level, then without warning went shooting through the floor.
"Harry!" Ron said turing towards his best friend for instruction "Try the map again!" Harry said, they all searched the map once again, there was still no sign of Hermione however there was a small golden orb floating down a corridor somewhere on the 2nd level. "Let's go!" Harry shouted before running for the door, everyone followed and soon they where chasing the orb all over hogwarts.
