Once the portkey activated, the bands of fire encircling Draco’s limbs vanished and he collapsed on the floor with Luna holding onto his arms, speaking softly to him.
“Well, since Harry did as I asked I will keep my end of the bargain,” Dumbledore said and with a wave of his wand Ginny and Hermione began to wake, “Do thank Theodore for accommodating me.” The twinkle left Theo’s eyes and he collapsed to the floor as well, looking rather confused.
“Draco?” He questioned, “What happened? I remember we were running here to check on Harry and then…everything is a blur.”
“Dumbledore possessed you,” Draco said, “He used you to cast an Imperio and Crucio on Ginny before putting her and Hermione to sleep. Then he cast fiendfyre bonds on me, and forced Harry to activate the portkey. We have to go after him!” He sat up with help from Luna and then checked on the other girls. “Are you alright Hermione? Ginny?”
“I’m fine,” Hermione replied, shaking her head to clear it, “I feel a bit fuzzy, but other than that I’m okay.”
“I’m sorry,” Ginny said softly, “It’s my fault; when Harry and I were coming downstairs I tripped and fell, and Harry hit his head pretty hard which is why it took us so long. Then I kept asking him questions about the snitch and-”
“This likely would have happened anyway,” Draco interrupted her, “Dumbledore obviously had a backup plan in place, otherwise he never would have been able to possess Theo so quickly.” He shot a look at his friend, who looked shell-shocked; “You should get rid of any candy and such that you have, or at least have it checked for spells and potions.”
“I always check my food,” Theo replied absently, “I think-it must have been a charm on my clothes or books…which means it has to be something I keep with me or touch often…”
“It’s there,” Luna pointed at Theo’s feet, “Either your shoes or your socks. Dumbledore is in charge of the Fungus Freedom Conspiracy, which seeks to bring down its enemies through a treaty negotiated with foot fungi.”
“Um…I don’t have any foot fungus,” Theo said, pulling off his shoes and socks, “See?” He was surprised when Hermione gasped and pointed at his foot. Looking down he didn’t see anything unusual, just the golden phoenix tattoo which-wait a minute. “How the hell did that get there?” Theo demanded.
“Is it magic?” Ginny questioned as she and Hermione moved closer to look at it.
“I think so,” Hermione said, “Somehow Dumbledore marked him; if Theo didn’t agree to it though then it shouldn’t have a strong hold and we can get it removed.”
“Master Harry! Master Draco! Dobby and Winky is here! Is masters safe?” Everyone looked up in surprise as Winky and Dobby apparated in along with Severus and Sirius. Severus quickly swept the room with his gaze and immediately noticed who was missing.
“Harry?” he directed the question at Draco, who was still sitting on the floor with Luna stroking his hair.
“Gone,” Draco replied shortly, “The snitch was a portkey. I need a potion that counters the effects of a fiendfyre binding so I can go after him.”
“I have one in my room,” Severus said, “If Dobby would go fetch it?”
“Yes, Master Sev!” Dobby readily agreed, quickly vanishing only to reappear a few moments later with the potion. “The potion takes half an hour to work,” Severus informed his godson, “and during that time you will not have much strength. You need to go to the hospital wing while I try to figure out where the Dark Lord is; it is likely that Dumbledore set the portkey to locate the Dark Lord. Draco-can your house elves be dismissed?” Draco nodded, and Winky and Dobby popped out.
“Good,” Sirius said, “I have my mirror, so when you figure out where Harry is let me know.”
“And what will you be doing Mutt?”
“Teaching Dumbles a lesson about messing with my family,” Sirius growled, “The dementors are obviously not doing their job, so I’ll go take care of that-”
“Idiot mutt,” Severus interrupted, “If you go to take care of Dumbledore then you have to return to Azkaban and the dementors will likely attack you-they don’t care if you have a pardon from the ministry. Come help me locate Harry and we will come up with a plan of revenge later.”
“Fine,” Sirius huffed, “You going to take the potion or not Malfoy? If you aren’t better by the time we locate Harry we aren’t waiting for you.” Draco glared at Sirius as he held out his hand for the potion.
“Watch it Black,” he scowled, “You are not leaving me behind.”
“Professor,” Hermione called out, “Can you come check on Theo? He was possessed by Dumbledore, and he has a tattoo…” Severus quickly knelt down by Hermione and Theo and the three began conversing in low voices.
“Come on Draco,” Ginny moved away from the small group looking at Theo’s tattoo and offered Draco a hand up; he brushed it away and struggled to his feet, although he did allow Ginny to support him as he walked over to the couch, “Rest for a bit and then you can go help save Harry-again. We really need to do something about all this danger he attracts.”
“There will be much less danger once we defeat Voldie and I kill Dumbles,” Draco said as he drank the potion; as he set the empty bottle on the table Draco noticed a familiar wand lying on the ground. “Look-Dumbles dropped Harry’s wand.” Draco leaned over the edge of the couch to pick up the holly wand that no one else had noticed; before anyone could react Draco vanished.
“Narcissa is going to be pissed,” everyone looked at Luna with wide eyes, and she looked back at them innocently, “That’s what the blibbering humdingers told me.”
“Fucking Hell,” Sirius growled, “The wand must have been another portkey set up by Dumbles-do you think he sent Draco and Harry to the same place?”
“He is hoping to break the bond,” Luna said in a faraway voice, “If the one with the power the Dark Lord knows not fails the bond shall break. The pawn shall bind the Chosen One’s chosen and use his power to free the True Menace. The worlds will be combined and torn asunder and magic will become the victim.”
“Umm…Luna?” Ginny said hesitantly, and the Ravenclaw looked at her with wide grey eyes, “What was that?”
“The blibbering humdingers gave me that message earlier,” Luna replied, “They said I would know when to pass it on. I hope it helps.”
“How can a bunch of nonsense be of help?” Severus sneered.
“It wasn’t nonsense,” Hermione said sharply, “Honestly Professor; haven’t you realized by now that Luna’s predictions are always correct if you know how to interpret them?”
“And I suppose you know what’s she’s talking about?” Severus scoffed.
“Well, yes,” Hermione said, “I can’t understand her as well as Harry does, but I understand at least part of what she said. ‘The one with the power the Dark Lord knows not’ is obviously Harry, as that’s how he is mentioned in the original prophecy, and if he fails to defeat Voldemort then his bond with Draco will be broken. Someone’s pawn will be there to bind Draco-the “Chosen One’s chosen”-and will use the Malfoy power to release the “True Menace”, whom I believe is Dumbledore. I’m not too certain about the last line, but I believe it means that our world will combine with the Muggle world and then become divided again, and magic will suffer because of it. Does that sound about right Ginny?”
“Yes,” Ginny nodded, “Any idea who the pawn is?”
“Well, if Dumbledore is the “True Menace” then the pawn must be someone he has used in the past,” Hermione said thoughtfully, “I’m sorry Theo, but that means you have to be a suspect, especially with that tattoo.”
“It makes sense,” Theo said, “Until we can find a way to remove it Dumbledore can possess me at any time. We should also keep an eye on Zacharias Smith though.”
“I agree,” Hermione said, then turned to address Severus, who had remained silent throughout, “Still think it was useless nonsense?”
“All prophecies are,” Severus replied, “Come-we should get you all to the hospital wing; Ronald and Neville are out in the hallway waiting on you, and I expect Narcissa is out there as well.”
“Cissy said she wanted to talk to McGonagall,” Sirius said innocently, and Severus groaned as he imagined what Narcissa was doing to his colleague.
“Come; we must stop her before she gets sent to Azkaban,” Severus said, “Ginny-contact your brothers and see if they can help us locate Harry and Draco. If not I may have to brew a potion.”
“Yes sir,” Ginny said, “I’ll get Ron to come with me.” She was the first one to leave the room, and she quickly filled Ron and Neville in on what had occurred; Ron readily agreed to go with her to find the twins while the rest of the group went up to the hospital wing to break the news to Narcissa.
*******************
“How did you let this happen, Minister?” Narcissa demanded in a soft, icy tone, “You assured me that Albus Dumbledore was in a warded cell which would prevent him from accessing his magic.” Her steely eyes pierced Scrimegeour, and a bead of sweat appeared on his forehead; Severus had just finished telling them that Harry and Draco went missing after Dumbledore possessed Theodore Nott, and now instead of the minister interrogating McGonagall, he found himself being interrogated by Narcissa.
“Madame, the cell we placed Dumbledore in is heavily warded,” Scrimegeour told her, “There is no way for a witch or wizard to access their magic while within the cell; I do not believe that it was Dumbledore who possessed Mr. Nott. Are we certain he wasn’t acting on his own, following You-Know-Who’s orders and then trying to blame Dumbledore?”
“Minister, I have examined the boy, as has Madame Pomfrey, and his magic shows signs of being tampered with,” Severus said, “The magical signature mixed with his is that of Dumbledore, and he has a tattoo which also reeks of the former headmaster’s magic. I assure you, this latest attack was orchestrated by Dumbledore.”
“I would never willingly hurt Draco,” Theo sneered at the minister, “He and I have been friends since we were children and I would never betray him.”
“And Harry is part of us now too,” Pansy agreed; she had come up to the hospital wing with Narcissa and was now sitting next to Theo along with Blaise, Hermione and Neville. Luna was lying unconscious on the bed next to them, having passed out upon reaching the infirmary, and Ginny and Ron had gone to Diagon Alley to locate the twins and Sirius was standing next to Severus, glaring at the minister.
“The phoenix tattoo is proof enough that Mr. Nott did not act of his own volition,” Pomfrey announced, “It holds a great deal of dark magic inside it, and yet it feels like Albus’ magic. It will take some time to remove it, and he will have to be seen to by a professional at St. Mungos.”
“The magic is dormant right now,” Sirius added, “but Dumbles can activate it at any time; he already possessed Theo once so it will be even easier for Dumbles to possess him again in the future. He could make Theo harm others, or even himself. The magic is one that old pureblood families used to keep their heirs in line.”
“And how would you know this?” Scrimegeour demanded, “Perhaps you are the one who marked the boy Black; I still disagree with Amelia’s decision to exonerate you. I find it hard to believe that you were truly innocent, coming from such a family.”
“Amelia did declare him innocent though,” Kingsley spoke up from where he had been standing a few feet away with four other aurors, “As for the boy-”
“He has a name, you know,” Hermione interrupted irritably, “His name is Theo or Theodore; or you could call him Nott, but you shouldn’t be calling him ‘the boy’-it’s rude.”
“You are correct,” Kinglsey bowed his head slightly in acknowledgement, “I apologize Mr. Nott. I believe young Mr. Nott should be escorted to St. Mungos immediately so that they can begin the process of removing the tattoo. Mrs. Malfoy-I will assign a team of aurors to try and locate Draco and Harry; isn’t there a potion the old families use to locate wayward family members?”
“There is,” Narcissa nodded, “However it takes twenty-four hours to brew the potion, and then it must sit for another twelve hours. It also requires ministry authorization because the active ingredient is the blood of a family member.”
“I will speak to Madame Bones about getting that authorization,” Kingsley said, “It won’t help us with Harry, but perhaps once we find Draco-”
“Actually,” Severus interrupted smoothly, “We have not made an announcement about it, as both Harry and I enjoy our privacy, but over the summer we discovered that I am Harry’s uncle; his mother Lily was my twin.”
“Preposterous,” Scrimegeour scowled, “Everyone knows that Lily Potter was a Muggleborn!”
“That is what Dumbledore wanted everyone to believe,” Severus said, “Once Harry is safe I will be glad to provide you with a memory sphere showing the truth. The point I was making with this revelation, is that I should be able to use the potion to locate Harry as well, if we haven’t found him before the potion is ready.”
“Albus sent him to He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named,” everyone turned to look at McGonagall, who was pale as she made this whispered announcement, “I-earlier this year Albus told me that he feared Harry was turning dark, and that he may defeat Him and then become a dark lord himself. He had a plan-if he felt that it was too late to bring Harry back to our side he would send him to…to…he would send him as a sacrifice. Harry-when the Dark Lord vanished all those years ago, he inadvertently turned Harry into a horcrux, and so to finally defeat him Harry himself must die.”
“Not true,” Hermione protested, “Professor Snape created a potion to destroy the horcrux without harming Harry; it is supposed to be ready by Halloween! All we need is a few more weeks!”
“I-a potion?” McGonagall sounded uncertain, “But…Albus assured me there was no other way.”
“Yes, because he has been honest and forthcoming about everything else,” Narcissa said drily, “I believe Professor McGonagall should be examined by a mind healer; obviously her brains have been addled by Dumbledore if she still believes his goals are pure.” McGonagall opened her mouth to reply, but Kingsley beat her to it.
“A lot of us were fooled by Dumbledore, Lady Malfoy,” he said gravely, “And it is hard to come to terms with the fact that a man you put so much trust in has betrayed everything you believed in. Until a few days ago I still believed in him as well; I thought that he had been falsely imprisoned and that perhaps Harry was being controlled by you and your son. I apologize for my attitude, and I will do all I can to help you find them both.”
“Well when are we going to stop standing around and do something?” Sirius demanded, “Harry’s been in the company of Voldemort for an hour by now, and who knows where Draco is and what he’s facing; why are we still standing here?”
“Because we don’t know where to look,” Severus said in exasperation, “What do you propose we do? Search the whole of Britain on foot?”
“Professor,” Pansy interrupted, “I have an idea. We all know my father is loyal to the Dark-to HIM, and I believe Mother is as well. I can contact Mother and see if she knows where…HE is.”
“Ah hah!” Scrimegeour sounded triumphant, “The young lady admits to being a supporter of-”
“She said no such thing,” Pomfrey interrupted, “Really minister! You are worse than the children! Don’t you have important matters to attend to? Somewhere far away from my infirmary?”
“As a matter of fact I do have things to attend to,” Scrimegeour replied frostily, “First on my agenda is replacing the current faculty at Hogwarts with people loyal to the ministry. Kingsley! Bring Madame McGonagall to the ministry for questioning; the Nott boy too.”
“I am afraid I can’t do that,” Kingsley said, “Both appear to be suffering from a magical attack according to Madame Pomfrey, and so I shall have to take them to St. Mungos for observation. I will make sure they are guarded by…four aurors each?”
“We cannot spare that many aurors,” Scrimegeour scowled, “Especially since we must also search for Potter and Malfoy. Two aurors each, and as soon as they are cleared I want them at the ministry.”
“Of course,” Kingsley agreed, “I will find you after I speak with Madame Bones so we can decide what to do next.” Scrimegeour gave a curt nod and then headed to Pomfrey’s office so that he could floo back to the ministry.
“I think I like him even less that Fudge,” Hermione scowled as the minister left without another word, “So…what do we do next?”
“I would like to keep you and Miss Lovegood overnight for further observation,” Madame Pomfrey announced, “Your magic levels appear to be depleted Miss Granger, and Miss Lovegood is suffering from the burns she sustained while trying to help Draco. When Miss Weasley returns I will need to examine her as well. Auror Shacklebot-will you be taking Minerva and Mr. Nott to St. Mungos?”
“Yes,” Kingsley affirmed, “In fact, we should go now so that I can catch Amelia before she leaves the office for the day.” He turned his attention to Severus and Narcissa, “I should have the authorization for the potion before the end of the day, however if I am not mistaken you can begin brewing it without authorization, is that correct?”
“It is,” Severus confirmed, “The first part of the brewing process takes twenty-four hours, and the blood cannot be added until then; as long as we have authorization before we add the blood the potion is completely legal.”
“Very well; I will return as soon as I can. Minerva, are you ready to go?”
“Yes, Kingsley,” McGonagall nodded, “I am ready to go, and I am willing to give my statement to one of your aurors.”
“Very well, then we shall take our leave,” he turned to look at Theo, who was still sitting with his friends, whispering over a book with Hermione, “Mr. Nott?” Theo looked up in surprise and then quickly slid off the examining table, giving his friends a small smile; Pansy was the only one to notice that his gaze lingered on Hermione the longest. Kingsley, McGonagall and Theo said their farewells and vanished into the office; they would floo to the Leaky Cauldron and go to St. Mungos from there.
“Good; now everyone except for Miss Granger and Miss Lovegood out of my infirmary,” Pomfrey commanded, “Miss Lovegood still has not awoken and I need to focus on my patients. When Miss Weasley arrives send her up as well.”
“Of course, Madame,” Narcissa agreed, “Shall we return to your rooms Severus? Or shall we return to our earlier location?”
“My rooms will be satisfactory,” Severus replied, “That way I can begin brewing the potion. Miss Granger can assist me with the potion, as it requires two people to brew. Miss Parkinson, you, Zabini and Longbottom should return to your houses; when we discover where Harry and Draco are we will let you know. If you hear from the Weasley’s send them to me, but make sure Ginerva goes to the hospital wing.”
“Yes, Professor Snape,” Pansy agreed, “After you talk to the rest of the Lions would you like to join us Neville? We can work on our Defense project together?” The three teens talked quietly as they walked down the hall, while Hermione followed Snape, Sirius and Narcissa to Snape’s office.
AN: Sorry for the long wait; I’ve still been having trouble getting the chapters out, and I know that this one is really short but I’m working on winding things down. Next chapter will likely still take a while to be posted, but we’ll check back in with Harry or Draco; possibly both. I have some notes for chapters that did not get posted-sort of fillers about classes and Hogsmeade-so I may update by adding those in, although I will probably wait until the story is finished and add them in when I go back to edit. Either way, if I go back and fill in some stuff from earlier in the story I will post a note for it. Thank you to everyone who reviewed, and the next chapter will be up as soon as I can get it out. I probably won’t post again until after the holidays, so Merry Christmas to everyone! For those who celebrate something other than Christmas, I wish you Happy Holidays.
