July 29th, 1999; 20:41: Malfroy Manor

It was just over one year when Harry James Potter had destroyed all of Lord Voldemort's horcruxes and just over one year since the Dark Lord has fallen again. Gordon Crabbe and Jonathan Goyle were making their way to Malfroy Manor, where if Lucius Malfroy was correct, the Dark Lord's mission would ultimately be fulfilled.

They made their way up the long path with ten-foot tall hedges lined each side towards the end where Malfroy Manor stood. It took the two men over two weeks to make it here, ever since they escaped from Azkaban prison. This was a chance they would not miss for the world.

The two men entered the mansion where several wizarding portraits of the Malfroy and Black families lined each side. They entered into the Drawing room, where over a year ago they would've had their Death Eater meetings and witnessed the murder and disposal of Charity Burbage. The ornate table still remained with beautifully carved chairs lined either end. At the far end of this table sat Lucius Malfroy, the wealthy man who had summoned them to this meeting.

"And so we meet again," Lucius Malfroy said with a grin on his face. "Crabbe, Goyle, I have news about the Dark Lord."

"What news?" questioned Crabbe, "The Dark Lord is unable to rise again, for he is stuck in Limbo because he has no more horcruxes."

"Why, yes," responded Malfroy, "but the Dark Lord is intelligent and cunning. Before the Battle of Hogwarts, the Dark Lord and I had a little chat, telling me I the most loyal and precious of the followers he has."

"But you fled the battle!" interrupted Goyle, "Bellatrix died for the Dark Lord, Crabbe and I as well as any other survivors are rotting up in Azkaban prison. To us, you are nothing more than a coward. You choose the side that is going to win in order to benefit yourself!"

"Those are strong accusations," said Lucius calmly. "Yes, I did flee the battle, but that was the order of my one and only Lord."

"An order?" questioned Goyle.

"Yes, an order. You see before the battle, Lord Voldemorrt told me that in the unlikely event that we fail, he will die and go to Limbo, but once more he has split his soul and that last Horcrux is none other than myself. Currently, he is hiding in the Austrian Alps with Dolores Umbridge. I snuck her out of Azkaban to serve the Dark Lord, which she was so pleased to do. That is why Bellatrix allowed herself to be killed by Molly Weasley for Voldemort to split his soul up once last time and he shall return from Limbo when the time comes and once more the Dark Lord shall rise again!" said Lucius Malfroy ginning.
