Chapter 40: A Needle in a Haystack

"How long do I have to wait in this irritating body?" Severus Snape never liked using Polyjuice potion. He especially didn't like it because he currently was turned into a teen-age girl. The only consolation was that Lucius Malfoy was sitting next to him, also as a teen-age girl. They had talked about different scenarios while hunting

for Hermione MacMillan, and they felt this was the least obvious. At least they had chosen the hair of some good-looking and shapely Muggles. Lucius was tempted to explore the body he was in, but he felt kind of funny about feeling himself up.

The two Death Eaters had spent five hours, looking at memory after memory, in Abraxas Malfoy's pensieve. What an eye-opening experience to see The Dark Lord as Tom Riddle Junior. They both had agreed that he had been most charming and handsome while at Hogwarts. One could see why he had gained so much power

while still attending school. They also had the image of Hermione ingrained in their minds. She was more beautiful than they had previously thought. They were also impressed with her power and intelligence. It all made sense how Tom Riddle had fallen hard for this girl. They also realized, that more than Tom had grown to love

Hermione; Abraxas had loved her too. This was also a fact that they would never bring up to their master. He was irritated with everything and everyone as it was.

Lucius and Severus sat on a bench in Diagon Alley. They were eating ice-cream from Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlor while watching people wander from store to store.

"Why are we here looking for Hermione?" Severus leaned closer to whisper to Lucius. "Do you really think a girl that just gave birth would be wandering around Diagon Alley?" Severus could not help looking at the boobs on Lucius's chest.

"Quit looking down my top!" Lucius grabbed the neckline and tried to cover himself.

"They really do not belong to you Lucius. They just look really smashing in that jumper you chose to wear." Severus stroked along Lucius's arm.

He slapped Severus's arm away making him laugh.

"I had to steal, I mean borrow this from Narcissa's closet. Now quit ogling me and watch those people."

Hermione sat alone in the kitchen drinking her cup of tea. No one was up yet and Thomas had just been fed and was back to sleep. She thought back to a week ago when she had gone and faced the Marauders and Lily…

When she had walked into the room it had become deathly silent. From the look on Hermione's face, they all knew that she had overheard their conversation.

"Hermione, please come and sit down." Remus pulled up a chair for the new mom and her baby.

Sirius Black wandered off to a corner and leaned against the wall. He stared piercingly at Hermione, as she looked behind her she made eye contact with him. He did not offer her a smile, only indifference. This made Hermione not only nervous, but very sad. She had once had a very close relationship with Harry's Godfather, and now to be under such close scrutiny from him left her unbalanced.

"Did you hear us talking?" Lily asked anxiously. She had not wanted to upset Hermione, especially since she had just gone through so much.

Hermione glanced around the room looking at James and Lily, Remus sitting next to them and back again to Sirius standing behind her. "Yes, I must admit I did hear most of your conversation. I wasn't trying to eavesdrop; I was just coming down the stairs to join you." Her voice was shaking, but she hoped that her sincerity

was showing. She had to gain their trust or she would never get the help she needed. Now all she had to accomplish was finding Tom's whereabouts.

"I first need to tell you about how I came to be here, in your time." Hermione could feel a huge lump settling in her throat.

"Hermione, we already know about the time turner." James sat on the edge of the couch. His hands were clasped together tightly. They had found the time turner around her neck as soon as they had brought her into the house, the night that Thomas was born.

Sirius walked over, grabbed a kitchen chair, and sat down with his legs and arms crossed. His eyes were boring into Hermione. She could feel the hostility coming from him.

"I was sent here to your time by…someone that wanted me away from my baby's father." It was so hard trying to tell her story without telling the absolute truth.

"Why would someone do that?" Sirius asked loudly with a nasty tone.

"This person, who sent me… felt that Thomas's father was going to be a bad influence on him." Hermione wasn't sure if her story was making sense or was even believable.

"Why would someone send you through time, with a time turner, while you are almost ready to deliver? It sounds like a crazy man to me." said Remus Lupin.

Hermione smiled, "You could say that." Hermione thought about Dumbledore's frame of mind that night on the Astronomy tower. Crazy was definitely a word that would describe him.

"So where is Thomas's father now?" James asked with great concern in his voice.

Hermione could no longer hold back the tears. "I don't know. That is what I need to find out." The compassion in Remus and Lily's eyes only made her cry more.

"What's his name?" Sirius's voice called out. "Maybe it's someone we have heard of."

Hermione held her breath, and thought there was no way that she was going to tell this group who fathered Thomas. Of course they knew his father and hated him, which they had a right too. "He doesn't live around Godrics Hollow." It was easy to mix the truth with lies. She would just need to remember exactly what she told

them to keep her story straight. Thomas saved the day as he started to cry. "I need to go change his nappy, excuse me." Hermione hurried from the room and up the stairs.

"She is still keeping something very important from us. I can just feel it." said Sirius. The rest of the room's occupants looked at one another, without saying a word, because they knew that Sirius was right.

Lord Voldemort sat on his throne with an irritated look on his face. He was listening to report after report, which all had the same content; no one had a clue to where Hermione and his son could be. Even his two most trusted servants, Malfoy and Snape had failed him. It had been two weeks since the birth of the baby and

there was no sign of him. How could this be? It's not like he could have vanished off the face of the Earth. He would have felt it if Hermione had left again from this time period. She was still somewhere in Great Britain, he could just feel it.

"What about Hogwarts? Has anyone gone there to look?" The Dark Lord looked around the room at his circle of Death Eaters.

"Yes, my Lord," Severus Snape answered him stepping out of the circle, "I covered every level of the castle and there was no sign of a baby nor of Hermione."

Snape stepped back into the circle having answered his master.

His answer only seemed to agitate the Dark Lord more. His once handsome looks had faded somewhat through the years, but he was still an attractive fifty-three year old man. His dark hair was now graying, but this didn't distract from his overall, strong appearance. Right now, the anger overtook his whole body and made

even the fiercest Death Eaters shudder in their boots. No one dared make eye contact with the Dark Lord whilst he was having one of his tantrums.

The other problem running through Lord Voldemort's mind was the prophecy that Severus Snape had heard at the beginning of the year. At the Hogs Head Inn, Severus overheard Sibyll Trelawney make a prophecy about a baby who will be born at the end of July; a baby who would be able to defeat the Dark Lord. They

had been keeping track of every magical mother who was due at the end of July. At this point the main women they were watching were Lily Potter and Alice Longbottom. It seemed all of his problems right now revolved around babies.

The words of the prophecy kept running through his mind:

"The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches ...

Born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies ...

And the Dark Lord will mark him as equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not ...And either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives."

It was now the seventh month and he wanted to know who this child would be. But the search for his own son would come first.

Lord Voldemort stopped his pacing to stand in the middle of his Death Eaters. "You will all be assigned to follow members of The Order of the Phoenix. If there is anywhere Dumbledore would want to conceal Hermione, it would be with someone from his precious Order." They all tried to not look at one another. They were already

watching The Order, but they would need to step up their observations.

"You may all go, but first get your assignments from Lucius and Bella, they will stay here. I have another assignment for them." Bella's loud laughter echoed through the hall, as the rest of the Death Eaters left to hopefully find The Dark Lord's woman and child.

Dumbledore waited for all of the members of The Order to assemble.

"Please quiet down. We have some very grave things that must be discussed." The whispers could be heard as Dumbledore made his pronouncement. "The Dark Lord and his Death Eaters are on the move again. They have been spotted around the homes of every member of The Order of The Phoenix. "

James and Lily looked at one another, and James reached out and took his wife's hand. He gave it a reassuring squeeze.

"We must all be watchful of where we go and never go out alone. Wizards need to be extra attentive to their witches." Dumbledore looked directly at the Potters and then to the Longbottoms. "The Dark Lord must be stopped and soon. "

Mad –Eye Moody jumped up in the back, "Constant vigilance people, constant vigilance!" The room exploded with claps and cheers.

Dumbledore looked around the room wondering who in The Order had found Hermione. He hoped that she had made it to this time with no harm. Once he found where she was, he would do everything to keep her away from Voldemort. The Tom Riddle that she knew in the past was more wicked thirty-five years later. The

Dark Lord would want the baby, and he might even kill the mother in order to get what was his. He hadn't gone to all of that hard work, to send her away from him, to have her end up in his clutches again. Also, by all means the Dark Lord would never have access to his spawn. The child may need to die along with it's father. Turning around, he hid his smile at the thought of seeing both of them dead.

Please review and let me know what you think. The first scene in the chapter is one of my favorites I have written. Just seeing two of my favorite sexy men as polyjuiced women just made me giggle! Thanks for reading!
