Hello! Here is the latest chapter…please enjoy.

"Do we even know what we're dealing with?"

Draco drawled with hidden disdain.

Hermione snapped, "no, of course not! Why don't you go ahead and tell us?"

Draco smirked, crossed his arms and leaned back. "Sure thing Granger. A horcux is one of the darkest things on the planet and Voldemort made seven."

Matthew licked his lower lip, "what exactly is a horcrux?"

Hermione glanced over at Draco, who sighed. "A horcrux is created when a person splits their soul-"

Lacy shivered, "split your soul? That's…" she trailed off in shivers.

Draco continued, "they split their soul by committing the most taboo act…murder."

"And we're supposed to believe that Voldemort made," Neville glanced down at the parchment, "seven?"

Hermione frowned and stood up, "well if you don't believe this, then I'm just going to fix this myself. I trust Harry."

Neville winced and shared a glance with Ginny, "it's not that we don't trust him, it's just we don't understand how Voldemort could still be alive."

"Dark magic."

Draco's voice cut through with an icy tone.

He met the eyes of the small group as he stood up, "before we do anything in regards to this, you need to understand what you are fighting against. There is a chance that you will not come out of this unharmed."

Hermione swallowed, "I'm in."

Draco nodded and the two looked at the rest. Matthew glanced down before he too stood up, "same. I want to save him."

Lacy pursed her lips, "if you are then so am I." She stood up with a firm expression as Matthew opened his mouth to argue, "he's my brother just as much as he is your's. I have a right as well."

Neville closed his eyes and sighed, "I can't let you go alone, so I'm in as well." He smiled at Lacy, "we'll get Harry back."

Now it was only Ginny and Luna. The two girls both stood up and nodded. Ginny crossed her arms, "same for us as well."

Hermione smiled, "good. Then let's meet up again on Saturday. I should be able to get more information from my source by then."

The other's all nodded and made their way out of the library in small groups. Draco stayed behind and smirked over at Hermione, "so you have a secret source? Is his name…Blaise?"

Hermione blushed, "so what if it is? There's no problem. I trust them both."

Draco closed his eyes, "you do understand that we're Slytherin's."

Hermione narrowed her eyes, "yes…"

Draco pushed off from the wall, "just be careful. I wouldn't want to see Blaise hurt."

That Saturday found the small group meeting on the seventh floor in front of a old statue. Matthew smirked, "ok Hermione…you've got me. Why are we all the way up here?"

She glared but chose not to say anything. Instead she just walked past the statue three times and the other's were sure they could hear her muttering under her breath. Matthew was about to ask again, but paused as a door appeared out of nowhere.

Hermione smirked, "yes." She grabbed the handle and opened the door to revel a room not unlike the common rooms.

"What is this room?" Matthew asked as they all sat down.

Hermione bent down and rummaged through her bag as she spoke, "it's called the Room of Requirement and I found out about it from Harry." She pulled a bunch of papers from her bag and grinned, "I don't even think your dad or Sirius ever found it."

Matthew's eyes widened before he smirked, "that's totally awesome! I wonder what other things he knows that they never found out."

Hermione shook her head, "that can wait, but for now…I think I know what to look for."

Draco raised an eyebrow, "do tell."

Hermione laid out the papers, "well Harry told me that Voldemort always had a deep fascination with Hogwarts. I went through the history and wrote down several important artifacts that belonged to the founders that I think might work."

She tapped the first one, "this one…Harry is sure it's in Hogwarts."

Matthew glanced at the word, "Ravenclaw's Diadem? Wasn't it lost…like centuries ago?"

Hermione chewed her lip, "yes, but Harry gave me a hint." She glanced over at group, "he said something about a room full of hidden things."

Matthew's eyes widened as he shared a glance with Neville. He then looked back at Hermione, "I know that room! It's a room full of lost things."

Lacy snorted, "well what a genius concept. I think you get that from the name."

Matthew glared at his sister while Hermione rolled her eyes, "anyway. Where is this room?"

Matthew looked over at Hermione with shock, "this is why I was so surprised about this room. Apparently it has different functions."

Draco narrowed his eyes, "what do you mean?"

Matthew shrugged his shoulders, "I always knew this room to be the room of hidden things."

Draco yelled out in exasperation, "so what are we supposed to do? Ask it to change rooms?" There was a soft rumbling that shook the room as everything around them changed. What had once been a cozy sitting room complete with couches and fires was now a room full of broken and random items.

Hermione smirked, "would you look at that?"

"How are we supposed to find the diadem in all of this, " Neville asked.

Lacy rolled her eyes and drew out her wand, "Accio diadem!"

Draco snarled, "that won't work-" but was cut off as something came soaring through the air. Lacy caught it with a smirk in Draco's direction, "you were saying?"

Draco crossed his arms and just turned away in a huff.

Hermione shook her head, "well that's one. Another one that Harry mentioned will be quite hard to get." Here, she looked straight at Draco who turned back around and arched his eyebrow, "what?"

Hermione tapped on Hufflepuff's cup, "this is apparently located…in your aunt's vault."

Draco curled his lips, "no."

Hermione sighed, "Draco…"

"No," he repeated. "I'm not crazy enough to risk her anger."

"But…we need it."

Matthew placed his hand on Hermione's shoulder, "then we'll just have to think of a different way to get it."

Hermione sighed and nodded, "fine." She glanced around, "that should be everything for now. We can meet at a later date."

Draco looked at his fingers, "fine then. For now are we done here, I don't think it's prudent that both the Head Boy and Girl should be missing. We wouldn't want rumors to spread."

Hermione narrowed her eyes at Draco then turned to the others. Ginny sighed, "I have a detention with Sprout tonight."

Lacy snorted, "what did you do?"

Ginny stuck her tongue out, "I were just having a little fun. I saw no need to get upset."

Neville grinned, "so that's why she told me to meet her at the greenhouses later. She's going to have you working with snapping dragons."

Ginny let out a grimace causing Lacy to snigger. Lacy then turned to Hermione, "Draco's right though. It's been quite a long time and I have quidditch practice."

"Hold on though. How do we even destroy a horcrux?" Matthew spoke up from where he had continued to look at the list.

Hermione bit her lip, "um…well they can only be destroyed by two things." She looked around the group, "apparently one of the only ways to destroy a horcrux is with basilisk venom. Harry mentioned that and the use of Fyindfire."

Neville frowned, "those are two highly illegal things. How are we going to even get them?"

Draco sighed, "it's obvious isn't it?"

Everyone turned and looked at the blond. He pushed off from the wall and crossed his arms, "we need Harry."

Harry scowled as he looked out the window. He was getting very bored locked up in this mansion. Merlin, didn't Voldemort know anything about raising teenagers? If he didn't get free soon, he was going to lose his mind. He'd been locked up in this mansion since he'd returned from the mission where he killed that man. He'd then refused to come out of his room. He knew it was making Voldemort mad, but Harry couldn't find it in him to care. He wanted to go back to Hogwarts.

"Hadrian. Will you stop sulking? It's very unbecoming of you."

Harry turned around and glared at the very person he had just been thinking of. Voldemort calmly strode into the room and came to stand next to Harry. Harry tried not to flinch as the man reached up and brushed a lock of Harry's hair to the side. Voldemort gripped Harry's chin and forced Harry to meet his eyes.

Voldemort murmured, "what do I have to do to make you happy again? I've tried everything. You refuse to go to your lesson's, you won't eat and you won't come out of your room."

Harry frowned and looked away, "I want to go back to school." He looked back at Voldemort, "I've done what you ordered. You got the chance to learn at school, why can't I have the chance?"

Voldemort sighed and dropped Harry's chin. "We've been over this Hadrian. Dumbledore will take you away from me. Do you want to spend the rest of your life catering to that old fool?"

Harry swallowed, "but…Father…why can't you trust me? I'm stronger then he is and won't fall prey to his mind tricks."

Voldemort sharply gazed at Harry before he finally sighed, "very well." Harry almost jumped for joy when Voldemort's hand reached out and grabbed his arm, "but remember this Hadrian…" Voldemort leaned in and whispered in Harry's ear, "one wrong move and I will destroy you."

Harry stayed silent as Voldemort strode out of the room. When the door finally closed, Harry allowed a grin to grace his face. Everything was going according to plan. He didn't even care about the threat because, Harry would be the one destroying him.

Voldemort wouldn't know what hit him.

Stay Tuned!
