Ginny gently closed the bathroom door completely unaware of the lack of sound which usually contained sounds of someone snoring or the floor creaking while someone tossed which had become common when the younger generation had appeared.

Agents. The room was filled with masked agents of all sizes. They were all looking through a one-way glass, observing their hostages. There was an anxious yet excited energy present in the room, the few agents who were rookies kept glancing at each other, one of them finally gathered the courage to ask the question that was on their minds.

"Sir, it has been 2 hours since we brought our objectives in. Your orders sir?" An agent asked their boss

The boss stood up, slowly making their way out of the room. Their very aura screamed power and demanded respect.

"Wait for them to wake up, I want to be updated the very second they show any signs of life" was given as an order

"Sir yes sir, if I might be so bold to ask. What are you planning to do with them?" was asked in a nervous tone

The boss smiled under their mask, "These children in that room, are the key to our future." With that, the boss left the room. The agent who had asked the question looked uneasily into the room where the next generation was held. The agent wiped all emotion from their face and forced themself to remember their goal, to remember what their boss did for them. However, they could not help the sorry glance that was cast at the next generation who were oblivious to their situation.

To say Ginny Weasley was worried would be the understatement of the century. She was beginning to regret not telling her mum that she could not find the next generation. All she knew was that they met late last night and did not return to their rooms. She excused their absence by telling herself that they just fell asleep in a random room. The clock had now struck 7 am. She had awoken suddenly with her heart beating at an abnormal speed. She then silently went to the rooms she knew that some of them were sleeping in and when she couldn't find them there, she began to look through the house. Ginny then went up to the last floor in the house she had not looked in yet, she swore she was going to get help if she didn't find them.

After another half an hour of fruitless effort, she gave up and decided to get help. She headed downstairs to inform her mother, who was now awake as well as Ron and Harry and were making breakfast as she could tell by the smell.

"Mum" she called descending the stairs

"Yes, dear?" Mrs. Weasley answered back absentmindedly not taking her eyes off the stove. "Harry dear can you please peel the potatoes?" She added looking at Harry who nodded

"Have you seen any of the kids? I can't seem to find them. I've looked almost everywhere. I heard them sneak out in the middle of the night to have bonding time together and I just assumed it was one of the empty rooms but they are nowhere to be seen. "

Mrs. Weasley finally turned to face her daughter and stopped all the various tools that were magically completing all the tasks.

"Are you sure?" Harry asked her and Ron who was in the pantry looking for spices came out when he heard that interest in seeing what the fuss was about. He cast a worried look at his sister and said "It's probably nothing to worry about, have you checked the whole house yet? It is pretty big"

"I have. I woke up at 6 for some reason and felt compelled to look for them for some reason. I can't find them though"

"All right, don't worry. You must have missed a room or something. We'll help you look dear" Mrs. Weasley said as Ron and Harry nodded.

The group split and after 20 minutes of searching Ron, who was in charge of the 2nd floor, stood at the base of the steps and called them over. It was a miracle how everyone else in the house was still asleep.

"Mum, I found this room hidden in the corner and this door is locked and I can't seem to open it. I tried alohomora"

"I must have missed this one, none of the rooms I went into had locked doors" Ginny informed them bashfully

Mrs. Weasley just silently performed the unlocking spell as well. She didn't say anything about Ron's use of underage magic, as the ministry couldn't detect it, or Ginny's carelessness as she had more pressing matters to worry about. Mrs. Weaslet silently prayed as she cast Alohomora over and over again but with no results.

Harry and Ron who were watching in anticipation became uneasy.

"If they haven't responded to our sound, maybe they cast a spell?" Harry suggested.

Panic was flowing through Mrs. Weasley's veins as she listened to Harry's suggestion.

"Everyone, stay back" and with that Mrs. Weasley cast 'Bombarda.' The door shattered in an instant, chunks of wood from the frame flew in every direction. The noise of the explosion was enough to have woken up the other members of the household. Fred and George who were the ones closest to the door had come with horrible bed hair and their wands in hand ready to attack. Mr. Weasley and the rest were quick to follow. However, when all they saw were the 3 kids and Mrs. Weasley coughing from the dust they all stood in astonishment.

After desperately calling each and every name from the younger generation Mrs. Weasley grew frantic, she stepped back, wand in hand "Alright this is one of the last doors we have to open and I don't care if I have to break this down" as soon as Mrs. Weasley said that the spell "bombarda" passed through her lips and the wooden door was gone with splinters and large chunks of wood scattered around the place. The noise had all of the other current residents in the house sprint with their wands in hand to the source of the commotion, ready to attack any intruders but when they got there all they saw were 3 kids coughing and Mrs. Weasley standing shell shocked in the room.

"Molly, love, what is it?" Mr. Weasley asked his wife, his eyes filled with concern at the sight of her and his children, as well as Harry while covering his nose due to the musty smell that came from the room.

Harry, Ron, and Ginny were standing at the side with Fred and George helping them brush off the dust while they looked at their mum in concern. The rest of the inhabitants stood at the back just observing the scene in confusion.

Mr. Weasley put an arm on his wife's shoulder concerned about the look in her eyes. Mrs. Wealsey looked like she saw death as she was just staring at the circle with weird symbols in the middle of the room whispered "My grandkids have been taken"
