***Hello everyone!Here is another chapter! Not a lot of things to say so I will leave you here! See you soon!
Few weeks passed after Ron left Hermione and Harry alone to find the horcruxes. Harry and Hermione had visited Godric's Hallow in hope to find the sword of Gryffindor. However there, the two of them came across Harry's parents graves. They met Bathilda Bagshot but she was animated by Voldemort to contain his snake Nagini. At that meeting Harry's wand was destroyed. The next day however Ron came back and with Harry they destroyed the locket after they found the sword of Gryffindor inside a frozen river. In that river Ron saved Harry's life and asked Harry to forgive him for all those fouls words he had said. Harry forgave him but Hermione was somewhat difficult to make her believe him and trust him again. However she was relieved that he was okay and back with them. The three decided to visit Xenophillius Lovegood to learn about the Deathly Hallows. However in that meeting they learnt something else as well.
The three were ready to leave when Xenophillius came back. Hermione looked at him and said ''Mr. Lovegood. Thank you, sir –''
Ron looked at him and cut Hermione saying ''You forgot the water.''
Xenophillius looked at him and asked ''The water?''
Ron while looking at him said ''For the tea.''
Xenophillius smiled nervously and said ''Did, didn't I? How silly of me.''
Harry smiled at the older man in front of him and said ''No matter, sir. We really ought to be go–''
Xenophillius turned suddenly and looked at Harry and with a pained looked he said ''No, you mustn't –''
Harry was taken aback and he only managed to say ''Sir?''
Xenophillius walked towards Harry while speaking ''You're my only hope. They were angry, you see, about what I'd been writing, so they took her. They took my Luna…'' He looked at Harry with something like worry, hate and pain and said ''But it's really you they want…''
Harry looked at him and asked ''Who took her, sir?''
Xenophillius turned his back to the three friends and while walking to one of the windows said ''Him. Surely you call him You-Know-Who. But his real name of course is… Voldemort.''
Hermione widened her eyes and gasped ''No'' she said and tears streamed down her face. She shook her face and Ron wrapped a hand around her shoulders. ''Sh Mione. Ww will find her'' Ron whispered at her ear.
Harry looked at Xenophillius and said ''When did the took her sir?''
Meanwhile at the Malfoy Manor Bellatrix had gripped Luna from her shirt and was looking at her with a very cruel smile. ''You are just like that weird mother of yours.'' She said and threw her to the ground.
That moment Draco walked inside the room with Narcissa and gasped. He looked at the girl at the floor and his eyes watered. Luna looked up and met Draco's eyes.
''Bella, when did this girl came here?'' Narcissa asked
''Oh Cissy, I learned that this girl here is best friends with Potter's mudblood. That means that her father will try to catch them because he wants his dearest girl back'' Bellatrix explained to Narcissa
''My father will never betray my friends'' Luna yelled
Bellatrix looked at her and aimed her wand ''Cru-''
''Now now Bella why are you so furious with this little girl?'' Voldemort said and cut Bellatrix
Everyone in the room bowed except Luna. Voldemort looked at her and said ''And who might you be my dear?'' he asked with irony
''Luna Lovegood'' Luna said brave
Voldemort looked closely and said ''I have heard about you Luna. I know for a fact that you are friends with some people.'' He said and looked towards Draco
Draco looked towards Luna with fear.
Voldemort looked around and yelled ''Snatchers, Bella, leave'' he ordered and when they left he turned to Lucius and said ''Do you remember our conversation back then at Christmas. You remember Lucius, what our beautiful spy had told us?'' he asked and Draco took a deep breath
''I do my Lord'' Lucius said and smiled
''Yes indeed, this girl will be very helpful to us. We will use her because I want few people to have in this house very soon. How about you Lucius? Do you want someone?'' Voldemort asked
''Yes my Lord. I want a certain someone'' Lucius said and smirked
''And who might be that person Lucius?'' he asked his follower
''Potter's mudblood my Lord. I want Hermione Granger. She will be a very good prize and toy.'' Lucius said and Draco and Luna gasped.
''Then you shall have her Lucius'' Voldemort said and left from the Manor.
After that Lucius turned to Luna and Draco. He looked disgusted at them and said. ''Pettigrew take the girl to the dungeons.'' He then left
Draco walked to his room and sat at his bed. Narcissa walked inside without knocking and said ''I will take care of her. Don't worry dear.'' She kissed his head
''Thank you mother! Thank you for everything. Do you know when Severus will come here?'' Draco asked with a small smile
''He will be here in the evening. When he finishes his business with Lucius, I will send him here.'' Narcissa said and left Draco to his thoughts.
Later that evening Severus was sitting at Draco's bedroom after he had finished with Lucius.
''What troubles you Draco?'' Severus asked his godson
''Hermione! Is she okay? Is she safe? I am scared about her Severus. Lucius asked the Dark Lord to give him Hermione if the death eaters ever find her. Aren't you worried about her?'' Draco said and a tear fell from his eyes.
''I hope she is fine Draco. She is strong. She has to be fine. She has to be safe. I will never leave Lucius touch a single hair from my daughter's head. I will kill him first.'' Severus said and took a deep breath ''But don't you think for a second that I am not worrying about her too. I am trying everything I can to find her and the other two but I can't find them anywhere. I just hope that the snatchers don't find them before me.'' Severus continued
''Severus I know you are worrying for her. I am just so scared right now and I can't even think properly anymore.'' Draco said and looked out of the window
''Draco, I am sorry I snapped at you. I am in a lot of pressure and worry and I can't control my nerves'' Severus said and touched Draco's shoulder
''I know Severus. I do. I feel just like you right now'' Draco said and after that Severus left to go back to Hogwarts.
