Previously, on 'Harry Potter And The Soul Bond':

"I heard screaming! Potter must be this way!"

"We're going to get busted!"

"This way!"

They scrambled through and closed the door behind them...

...Only to come face to face with Albus Dumbledore...

...Shit...

Dumbledore was sitting on a throne-like chair in the middle of an empty room, looking at them, and... snoring?

What?

The door slammed opened behind The Quartet, and they barley had time to get out of the way before an angry Snap stormed in and shouted "I've got you now, Potter!" But he stopped in his tracks when he saw Dumbledore sitting there.

Dumbledore groaned and looked at Snap. "Well hello there, Severus. I didn't think I'd see you here tonight."

"Where you asleep... With your eyes open?" Snap asked.

"Ah, yes." Dumbledore answered. "A talent I developed over all those boring board meetings I had to attend."

"I'm not sure I agree with your definition of 'talent'."

"Oh come now, Severus." Said Dumbledore, standing up and banishing his chair wandlessly. "Don't be like that. Is there a reason you came in here screaming like that?"

Snap's eyes widened as he remembered who he'd been chasing. "Potter!" The quartet gulped. "Potter came here!"

"Are you sure, Severus?"

"Yes! Filch said... that his cat..." Snap trailed off, looking a bit embarrassed.

"Mrs. Norris saw him?" Snap didn't answer. "Severus, You know that Argus trusts that cat way too much. And as you can see..." He raised his arms gesturing to the room. "... There's no one here."

"He could be using his father's Invisibility Cloak! Didn't you say you'd give it to him on his first Christmas in Hogwarts?"

"I intended to, but, you see... I lost it."

"You lost it?"

"Yes. And I need your help to find-" He was cut off by some barging in shouting through the open door.

"The Weasley Twins!" Filch said as he busted into the room. "They bewitched all the desks in the school! They're on a rampage!" He then ran out again after a sound of wood hitting the ground repeatedly.

"We'll discuss this later, Severus." Said Dumbledore, pulling out his wand. "Let's go!" And he ran after Filch. Snap not too far behind.

Once they made sure that no one else was going to bust in the room, they let out sighs of relief.

"That was close." Said Neville.

"Way too close." Said Hermione. "And what did Professor Dumbledore mean by 'Lost it'? I didn't even know he had The Cloak in the first place!"

"That is rather odd." Said Draco. "Especially when he said he was going to give it to Harry for his first Christmas here." Draco then turned to Harry. "Didn't you say that you got it as a Christmas present?"

"Yeah. I did." Harry fiddled with something in the pocket of his robe. "I still have the letter that came with it right here. You have see it." The others all got around Harry to try to read it's continents.

Harry,

This Cloak was in your family for generations, and it belonged to your father before you.

It could've helped him that day, 10 years ago, but someone wanted to 'inspect' it the day before.

It could've saved them. I could've saved them. But the past is in the past.

By returning The Cloak to it's rightful heir, I've fulfilled my promise to James. The Cloak is a power to be reckoned with, Harry, so use it wisely.

Now it's time for my promise to Lily.

I couldn't save them then, so let me save you now.

Sincerely,

A Friend.

"When were you going to tell us this?" Asked Hermione.

"I planned to when we were back at the library." Harry answered. "But I got sidetracked with Draco screaming 'Dark Magic!'"

"Don't throw this on me!"

"Wait, hold on..." Neville cut in. "So The Invisibility was your Dad's..."

"Yup."

"And Dumbledore took it almost right before the attack..."

"Professor Dumbledore, Neville."

"Then it got stolen by someone who then sent it to you as a Christmas present?"

"That's a way to sum it all up." Shrugged, Draco.

"But now that you say that all out loud..." Said Harry. " That does sound kinda suspicious."

"You think?!" Asked Hermione, to which Harry just smiled sheepishly.

"I think the better question to ask is..." Said Draco, looking at them one by one, lingering on Harry a little bit longer. "..Who was it?"

Author's Note: Hey, guys! Atrix Reaper here! So sorry for the late (and very short) update, but I'm here to at least justify myself with an excuse you'll probably wanna skip to the next paragraph if you don't wanna see me rambling. So, when I write the chapters of this story, I do it while fake studying (writing the chapter while I'm pretending to be studying God knows what I was supposed to gaze blankly at at the time), but I was on small hiatus to really study for the SATs. The original plan was to get back to the fake studying thing after the SATs and before the GPAs, but the COVID-19 threw everything out the window. Now mum's got nothing better to do other than breathing down my neck to make sure I'm studying T-T. So I woke up at 4 am to get this chapter done for you guys. And by the way, It was. Not. Fun.

That. And my cat jumped out the window XP.

So, other than that, thanks to every reader who stuck with me from the beginning and was patient with me. And thanks to those who just joined and took the time to read my story. I hope my story is entertaining enough during the quarantine, and stay at home to keep you, and everyone else, safe.

Bye!~
