"Hurry up Albus" James said, smiling back at Ablus who seemed to be thinking twice about the idea of walking into somewhere that was most likely associated with Thorn. James half smiled when they eventually reached the wooden fence some fifteen feet away from the actual building. "You ready Al'?" James asked in a dull flat tone, but he didn't care about the answer, Albus was coming with him and that was final. And with that James put one hand on the fence and jumped over it, his eyes bloodshot from the lack of sleep and worry that he had been put through.
He whipped his wand out of his pocket as he walked closer toward the run down old shack, often associated with ghosts. He walked much slower as they actually reached the building. He pointed his wands at the boards which covered with windows, "Reducto" he said simply, flicking his wand upward. The board was blown to pieces, leaving only dust falling to the floor. He then put his hands up to the window and looked inside. "Theres got to be something...anything that will help us find Lilly" James' initial plans were to check the shack out, to find any evidence for it being used as a meeting point. But he had now become obsessed with finding his sister...

Albus followed reluctantly thinking in his mind a way to get Lily without going through all this trouble. 'There has to be a better way then walking around searching for something we don't know exists' he thought to himself but he followed James on his heels. He hopped the fence after James and power walked down to the shack. He had only managed to get some sleep these days by heavily drinking and eventually passing out. He was lucky he had his own cabin to do whatever in it.
Once they approached the cabin Al luminated his wand. He saw James take out all the boards in the windows and he looked through a window. Al on the other had couldn't sit around and looked he walked around to the front and kicked the door open. "James, lets go.." he said and didn't even wait. He continued in the cabin. Going very slowly around corners in case someone else was in there.

"well that was stupid" James said, an unwilling smile on his face. It was possibly dangerous, as someone could have been in. But he was glad that Al', like him, wanted to take action" One of the first things he noticed about the shack was the thick layer of dust. But there were footprints, and some dust had been wiped of the wall. "Someone has been in here...pretty recently" He said, pointing out what he had seen. "Be careful Al..." he said, drawing level with him. "Lumos" He muttered after, sending the thin ray of light up the corridor. "D'ya think anyones in?" He asked, half his mind dreading the fact that Thorn could be in the shack somewhere- but he clung onto the small ray of hope that Lilly might be there.

All of a sudden Al got a cold, cold wave of something from the corridor up ahead. "There might be someone in here..." he whispered to James and he started forward walking slowly to avoid making any sound.

James crept in front of his brother, his wand lighting up the hall in front of him. "I don't think anyones here" he said, lowering his wand slightly. He turned and went into an empty room, filled only with a beaten down, scratched and dusty sofa. "Noones been in here" he said, viewing the thick dust on the floor. He waved his wand in the air and said " Homenum Revelio!" Nothing happened, "no-one is here" he informed his brother.

Al let his brother check things out but when he said no one was here for some reason he didn't believe him he went into that corridor and peered around. The cold sense there but fading alittle. A puzzled expression on his face. "Maybe not someone......but something......?" he whispered to James and he looked at his brother. His mind going crazy with horrible thoughts of booby traps or creatures guarding the place. He gulped alittle and looked at James.

(i have to problem with it...but i'd prefur it to be me and Albus. You decide =])
"Oh im not denying the fact that the place is flooded with ghosts" he said simply as he rejoined his brother, he paused before saying "You are talking about ghosts arnt you?" He asked, gripping his wand a little tighter.

Al turned and looked at his brother he nodded his head slowly. "I think we should be alittle careful...." then he noticed the confused look on James' face. "....ok....you know how i get those weird vibs....and something bad always happens......well i just got that when i walked in here and i-" he suddenly cut off and screamed as the floor boards below him gave through and he was sent underground. Screaming.

"ALBUS!" James shouted as the floor under his brothers feet gave in and he fell through the wooden floorboards. He quickly raised his wand and performed a cusioning charm on the floor, so that Albus would land safely. He then jumped into the hole were his brother was, he felt like he had hit a pocket of air as he reached the bottom- and landed smoothly on the floor. "Al?" he asked, "Are you alright?"

Al coughed, there was alot of dust down where he was. But luckily he landed on James' cushion. He started laughing. Alittle out of fear alittle out of the idea of floor boards going, you usually see that in movies. He jumped up ruffled his hair and looked at James. "Woah..." he said quietly a slight smile on his face.

James laughed, for a glorious second he was happy again. But then the reason why he was there struck him and he realised why they were there, looking for a way to find Lilly. "Come on Al" he said seriously as he looked around the room.

Al was smiling because he was remembering times at the burrow when they would all go around and explore, then Lily came flooding back to his mind and his face hardened and he nodded to his brother, gripped his wand and walked down another corridor, they were what seemed to be the basement. Al went around corners carefully like usual.

(actualy, changed my mind!! Can you join??) "Its no use!" James said, booting a wall out of frustration. "All we have found out is that people have been using the shack! It gives us clues as to how to get to Lilly" He added, he blinked tears away from his eyes before saying, "I feel so d**n helpless, shes stuck there and theres nothing i can do!"

Al took a deep breath he knew he had to be smart here.......like usual. He thought for a couple minutes then an idea clicked in his mind. "JAMES! we've been looking for the wrong thing! We've been searching for the place here when we know that thorn comes here to get Nikki and i don't think he apparates all the time........a portkey james! Thats what we have to look for!" he exclaimed and he imediatly stored his hand and began to search around the room picking up random objects and examining them.

(kay) Harry walked into the shack. He had a meeting with Scorpius there. He was sure that Scorpius wont turn up but he had to check. He was five minutes late so he went directly into the shack. He found that he was right. Scorpius wasnt there but James and Albus were, desperately searching for something. 'What are you two doing?' He asked clearing his throat

Al stopped and stood upright. He turned slowly and saw his father there. "We were just umm checking the place out..." he said and he akwardly scratched the back of his neck. He wasn't the best at lying....well he was a master at it around other people but around his father......he stunk.....

'Sure,' Harry said sarcastically. 'Because you have never seen the Shrieking Shack before have you Al?'

"Were looking for somthing that would help us find Rose" James said simply, feeling no need to lie. "We know the place has been used recently, theres patches of blank ground were the rest is dusty, and theres some vauge foot prints" He added, "Were looking for somthing else...somthing to, i dont know..."He then turned away from his father, and resumed searching the house.

((Rose?))
Al nodded his head, his brother obviously was ok with Harry finding out, so Al also continued to search the premises.
