Mystery attack, missing child
Last night the home of the Thomas family was attacked by someone unknown. This someone has killed the parents of Hogwarts student Dean Thomas a Gryffindor sixth year and his 3-year-old little sister Mary who has not been found.
The bodies of Sarah and Daniel Thomas have been found and are badly burnt as a result of the fire that burnt down the house. The body of Mary Thomas has not been found leading the Aurors to believe that whoever attacked the family took the child.
Now many believe this could be the work of the infamous He who must not be named yet that seems to be untrue there was no dark mark found above the ruins of the Thomas household, which is spotted above all of the attacks perpetrated by Death Eaters.
In fact, our inside scoop tells us the only thing found was a small piece of paper with the words "красная komhata" on it. No one knows what it means. Keep an eye out for the child.
Then there were pictures of the house, the family and Mary alternating on the magic newspaper.
The house was just a burnt out shell it looked dark and ghostly in the lighting of the photograph. With a few of the burnt walls trying to reach and support the cinders that lay either still attached or on the floor.
The photo of Mary, however, showed a happy 3-year-old girl with black hair to just past the base of her neck with brown eyes and skin the colour of cocoa beans. She had brown eyes that shone with innocence.
At this point Hermione was practically frozen in shock, she knows what those words mean, she knows where Mary will end up.
