alt_frankthe entire castle disappeared.
right in front of us.
he must have done a fidelius, damn him. him and his sister.
I'm so sorry, hermione. we couldn't get in. it just wasn't there any more.
it's not enough, it's not ever going to be near enough, but could you tell him I'm sorry?
and that I'm not going to stop trying to sort out how to get him out of there.
okay?
as for the rest of it, after the castle disappeared, things got pretty chaotic. well, even more chaotic than they were already. apparently carrow hadn't told anyone what he was going to do, so people started panicking when the castle up and vanished. we met up with tonks, and were dodging into side streets so that we wouldn't get spotted by the groups of guards running around. then a few people must have thought we were guards who were taking tonks in cause they started beating us with sticks. which bloody hurt. there were eight of them, guess they thought they'd take advantage of the alarms and the distractions and the fact it was dark out to try and help one of their own.
tonks convinced them that we were on their side by dropping her disguise, showing that she had a wand, and saying "grim truth" a lot. then they got the idea that all this alarm business was because of us, and we were trying to get to carrow to kill him. which wasn't entirely true, but they stopped hitting us with those sticks at least. then we figured that if they were so gung ho, we'd see if we could get them out of the camps and to sherwood right then and there, because chances were no-one would notice for a day or two that they'd left. three with families turned us down, but five took us up on it, and we frogmarched them through town, got to a low wall, floated them over, ran for a bit so we could get away from any anti-apparation wards, then apparated the lot to Sherwood. stayed just long enough to make sure Davidson knew who'd sent them. they'll have be cleared by him, of course, but he's got a few more good men and women that he didn't have before.
still.
damn.

It'd be useful if you could come by, to be a bit of a distraction.
