Harry was afraid to look up. He knew that Tom would be royally pissed. Yet, he mustered up all his courage and managed to look up at Tom. He was right, Tom was utterly pissed, like go on a killing spree pissed. He swallowed and cautiously spoke up.

"Grandfather?"

His red eyes were a swirling vortex of rage, and his voice had started to sound snake-like, like it always did when he was pissed.

"I will kill Dumbledore if it's the last thing I ever do!"

"Yes, we will. But for now we need to get out of here and find out what happened to the actual locket. We don't even know who this RAB person is."

"Oh yes we do."

"We do?" Harry was surprised.

"RAB. Regulus Arcturus Black. Sirius's little brother and once my most loyal soldier. Dumbledore must have put him under the imperius or used some of Severus's potions on him. We need to deal with Severus first thing now. It is absolutely imperative that he either be disposed off or have him re-pledge his allegiance. He is fast becoming a liability."

"Wow. I didn't know Sirius had a younger brother too. And yes, Snape needs to be quickly dealt with, I already told you so." Harry shrugged. "But first we need to get back to Sirius, who knows, he might even know about the locket."

Wordlessly, Tom took hold of Harry's hand and apparated them both back to the house.

They walk inside in quiet contemplation. Bella who sensed them apparating in, came out to meet them.

"What happened? You both look troubled?"

"Dumbledore." They both said at the same time.

"Oh." Bella was pretty much used to Dumbledore meddling in all their affairs by now. "What did he do this time?"

"I found out what happened to Regulus."

"That Old geezer." This time it was Bella's turn to get angry. "oh just you wait till Cissy hears about this. She will strangle that old geezer with his own beard."

Tom smiled a little. "Well, we need to go meet with Sirius then we have to summon Severus and deal with him and his betrayals."

"Yes, come on. Sirius is awake I think."

They entered the hospital wing to see Sirius awake and eating his dinner. He looked as if he was lost in thought.

"Hello Sirius." Harry greeted him.

"PUP! OH you are alive! I was so worried about you." Sirius made a motion as if to get up, so HArry quickly went over to him and gave him a hug.

"How are you sirius?" Harry asked him gently.

"I feel... I just don't know what I feel. Where am i anyway? It does not look like St. Mungos."

"Sirius" Harry started cautiously, "We are at Tom Riddle's home."

"Who is Tom Riddle?"

"I am." Tom walked in.

Sirius's expression turned into fear, and then into one of regret.

"I am so sorry master, I don't know what happened to me. I was not myself, please forgive me."

"Calm down Sirius, I know."

"You do?" Sirius was confused.

"He is my grandfather Sirius."

"You know?" Sirius was astonished.

"there are still a few things we don't understand, but we know most of it. I never would have guesses you were a death eater."

"Me and Moony knew about James. After Greyback bit him, and his own parents cast him out, Moony wanted nothing more to do with the light side. Dumbledore tried to feed him potions too, but due to his being a werewolf, they did not work on him, so Dumbledore outed his werewolf status to the world, discreetly ofcourse. But after that, no one listened to a word he had to say. He only came back because of you. He lied to Dumbledore and told him he is on the light side. When I broke out he tried to get me to listen, but Dumbledore had me dosed by then."

"When?"

"The day I broke out, Dumbeldore knew i would go for you. He found me outside your house, and since I was already so weak, he could easily get his way. I am sorry Harry, I failed you. And James and Lily. Oh she was so desperate to see her real parents once she found out."

"How did she find out Sirius? We ourselves didn't know."

"Bella!" Sirius desperately hugged his cousin.

"Oh I missed the real you so much!" Bella said.

"Well, my father was tasked with the duty of finding Voldemort's kids. Although Voldemort had forgotten by then that he had children, but my father knew and he remembered the order he had gotten from both you and Voldemort when you both had your memory. He had finally managed to figure out that it was Lily when it was our first day of Hogwarts. So he tasked me with the task of becoming friends with Lily and to tell her the truth and if possible, to turn James too."

"So you told Lily the truth?"

"It was not easy. It took all of our seven years to even get her to listen to me talk about it but, really it was Harry being born that she finally realised that Dumbledore actually was out to get us all. Ofcourse my father died long before he could see me being successful, but it's the thought that counts." Sirius shrugged sadly.

"Sirius, we have a little bad news." Bella slowly said, causing sirius's face to turn hard as steel.

"Dumbledore got to Regulus."

"How do you know?" Tom was astonished.

"That is how Dumbledore got to know about my being a death eater too. Regulus fought with everyone at home and we realised he was under the imperius. He ran off and we never heard from him again. The tapestry registered him dead a few days later and his death turned Kreacher absolutely mad. of course me and my father went to get our revenge from Dumbledore. My father took a hit and I was imperiused and turned a death caused me to break the imperius and dumbledore got me thrown into Azkaban. "

"But then how did you break out?"

"I recognized Peter, realised he was staying at Hogwarts with you and it broke my imperious again. Unfortunately Dumbledore figured it out and caught up with me at your house and this time he used one of Snape's potions that are hard to break out of without a healer's intervention."

"Regulus took one of Tom's horcruxes Sirius. Do you think he could have possibly managed to destroy it before he died?

"I don't know, But Kreacher might. Hold on. KREACHER!"

There was a loud crack and the world's filthiest looking elf appeared.

"Master called?" Kreacher sneered.

"Kreacher, did Regulus give you something like a locket?"

Kreacher became scared and started backing away.

Bella crouched down next to him. "Kreacher, that locket belongs to the dark lord. And he needs it back."
