Lucius growled his fustration that Adolfus wasn't there. He had really hoped to make the muggle lover watch his beloved Arabella scream.
He smiled as he heard the muggle scream. Draco had come a long way in the last two years. He really seemed to enjoy his work now. "Come on, Draco." He called to his son, "We don't want that muggle lover to supprise us."
Draco smiled at the pride and impatience in his fathers voice. "Crucio!" He hollared one last time. How he would love to let that muggle lover come home and find his wife insane. That would make the torture last forever but he had been instructed to kill her and his father was right. They didn't want Adolfus to come home and find them still there. "Avada Kedavra!" He shouted ending it and walked out to meet his father turning back to the house he shouted "Morsmordre! Incendio!" turning to his father he said "Let's get out of here." With that they apparated home.

Adolfus aparated to his home to be greeted with the dark mark floating above where he house used to be. Now it was a moldering pile. He looked for any sign that his wife had been out of the house when it had been attacked and silently prayed she had not been. He started sifting through the smoldering wreakage and found the first sign of his Arabella. He found her charred hand sticking out of the reminence of his home. With tears stinging his eyes he dug he's wife out of the of the rubble. "Arabella!" He sobbed as he cradled his wife's burnt form.

Ron aparated to the Bergstrom home and quickly scanned the area for people. Spotting Adolfus he went over to him and gently laid a hand on his shoulder. "She's gone mate." He said softly. "Come on, let's see if there are any clues as to who did this. Other then that it was Death Eaters, I mean." Ron placed a hand under his bosses elbow and tried to pull him up and away from Arabella.

"Let go of me!" Adolfus bellowed through his tears, pulling his arm out of the persons grip, not seeing who it was and not really caring. All that mattered to him at this moment was that she was gone, taken from him and it was his fault. "I should have been here to protect you!" He sobbed as he rocked back and forth. "I should have been here!"

"Come on, Adolfus." Ron said again placing his hand back on Adolfus's sholder. "We need to get who did this and I need your help to do that." Ron ran a hand through his hair. He really wasn't good at comforting people. "Let's get the Scene investigated and I'll buy you a drink."

"A drink? My wife is dead and you suggest a drink?" His voice was shrilly more then he even realized it could go. "Are you insane man?" This time he did not take Ron's hand off of him and he stood up to look at the young Auror in the face. "What I need is my hands around the neck of the monster that did this and anyother Death Eater I meet as well." His eyes were glinting dangerously. He looked back at his wife briefly and vowed. "I will find them Arabella and I will make them pay, all of them." He then turned to Ron and stated, "Lets go."

"Well, first things first." Ron said glaring at the dark mark floating in the sky. He had seen that one to many times. He had even found it floating over the small cottage he'd been renting once. Luckily he'd been burried under the paperwork he hated so much and hadn't been home that night. It had been the one time he was greatful for it. "Finite Incantatum!" He shouted at the sky and was greatful when the mark disappeared. Turning back to Adolfus. "I know it isn't going to make you feel beter Adolfus, but I doubt we will find these scum tonight. Sometimes getting blind drunk helps to kill the time. Not to mention it can be fun," he said with a grin. "Until the next morning, that is." He continued after a moment.

"You know," Adolfus frowned at Ron. "It probably wasn't wise to tell your boss while on the job that you like to get drunk." His frown softened, "But maybe you're right about that. Merlin how am I going to tell the kids?" He said more to himself then to anyone else.

Ron rubbed the back of his neck with a ruful smile. "Yeah, I thought of that after I said it." His face grew more serious. "There isn't going to be an easy way. Best to just tell them, I think. I know if it was my mum, I wouldn't want dad to beat around the bush. I'd want to know so I could get to beating the crap out of who did it." Ron turned and walked away from his boss and started sifting through the ashes of what use to be the Bergstrom home, looking for anything that might lead him to who did this.

'Yes well I don't want my children putting themselves in danger but you're right, I need to tell them as soon as possible." He grimaced as he thought of telling them. "Well I suppose we should see if there is anything we can find about who did this." He said with a sigh.
