a love thought impossible

Sirius and Remus came barging into Dumbledore's

office.

"Harry isn't at the Dursley's!" Sirius yelled.

"What?" Dumbledore replied, his blue eyes wide with

shock.

"All of his personal items were there, although Hedwig

is missing," Remus said.

"When did the Dursley's say he went missing?"

"The day after he got home," Remus answered, shaken.

"And they didn't think that contacting us would be a

good idea?" Dumbledore asked angrily.

"They said they 'didn't want any freaks in their

house,'" Sirius grimaced.

"When we find Harry, he will not return to them

anymore," Dumbledore said, going over to Fawkes to

send him to call an Order meeting.

After he had sent Fawkes, all three of them took the

Floo Network to 12 Grimmault Place and waited for the

rest of the Order to arrive.

They appeared at nearly the same time. The Weasleys

and Hermione came in last. Molly was about to shoo

them out of the kitchen when Dumbledore stopped her.

"Let them stay. This concerns them too."

Turning to the group, he spoke. "Harry is missing."

The room erupted.

"What?"

"Just like that?"

"Where is he?" Arthur bellowed.

"We don't know," Sirius said. "Remus and I went to

get Harry at the Dursley's, but he had Hedwig have

been missing since the day after he came home for

holiday."

"And they didn't inform us?" Severus asked

incredulously.

"No, but they kept his things and his wand. We have

them here," Remus said.

"Wait, Hedwig is also missing?" Hermione asked.

"Yes."

"I feared something like this would happen and I know

from experience that Hedwig will always go to Harry no

matter where he is," Hermione said. "Remember the

graveyard incident? I saw Hedwig fly after Harry that

time, so I put a tracing spell on her."

"Hermione, you are a clever witch!" exclaimed

Dumbledore. With a wave of his wand, he summoned a

map of the world. Hermione took out her wand and said

the words to active the spell. A small glowing dot

appeared on the map.

"CHICAGO."

Harry had finally gotten permission to get out of his

bed if he took it easy and looked what the others was

doing. At the moment, he was watching Throttle clean

his motorcycle and thinking.

"It's a strange path my life has taken. I have a

soulmate and he is a biker mouse from Mars and it

seems that Modo involuntarily donated the DNA that

Karbunkle used to test me. In a strange way, I almost

have a father now. I wonder what Sirius would think

of this."

"Harry." The sound of Throttle's worried voice pulled

him back into reality.

"Sirius," was all Harry said.

It was all that needed to be said. Throttle

understood and put his arms around Harry to comfort

him.

Suddenly, a series of pops sounded and Throttle pulled

Harry behind him, drawing his gun. The other mice

followed suit, pointing them at the intruders.

The intruders were pointing wooden sticks at them and

each looked astonished. "Mice! Big giant mice!"

Harry whirled around to see who it was. "Sirius!"

The man in question looked at him and saw his emerald

eyes.

"Harry."

With that, Harry fainted.
