Chapter 14

Harry, Ron and Seamus reached the spot where the mandrakes were planted and walk over to the one where Harry had heard something while digging.

"Harry be careful." Ron warned him. "Mandrakes can kill you with their screams remember."

"Don't worry, I got this under control. ADSLEIPIOUS" Harry yelled. One by one the five mandrakes heads started to droop, then they fell asleep.

"Which one did you hear the voice under?" Ron asked.

"This one." Harry muttered. "Lightio floatius. Wait here." Harry put his wand back in one of the pockets of his robe and ran into the nearest green house and picket up a shovel. Then started to dig at the soil around one of the mandrakes.

"What are you doing Harry?" Seamus asked. Harry dug for a minute more then answered.

"Here help me pull this out." Harry instructed. Ron and Seamus walked over to the mandrake and with Harry began to pull. Even though the mandrake was light because of the spell it was still stuck in the mud. When it finally came loose the trio fell backwards with the mandrake floating a few feet above them.

"Won't we get in trouble?" Seamus inquired. Harry picked up the shovel and began to dig again.

"Maybe" Harry answered. Seamus looked at Ron, who just shrugged.

Seconds later Harry hit something hard with the shovel. A few minutes later and he had cleared away all the dirt, leaving a brown trap door, with a picture of a silver snake on it.

"Err, Harry I think we'd better wait for Dumbledore to get here." Ron said.

"I agree this could be dangerous." Harry agreed.

"Let's go wait somewhere else, I don't feel safe waiting here. Especially if You-Know-Who really is down there." Seamus stated

"Good idea, we'll wait at Hagrids." Harry replied. Harry climbed out of the hole and brushed his robe down. The trio started walking to Hagrids when they heard a noise from the trapdoor. The three of them turned around slowly to see what had made the noise. A figure arose from the trap door. At first just a head, then a body, then the legs. The trio gasped.

"Voldemort."

"We meet again Potter." Voldemort cackled. Then something hard hit Harry, Ron and Seamus in the back of their heads. And they fell to the floor unconscious.

"HA HA HA HA HA HA." Voldemort laughed and so did the undeathis returno of Harry's father. Then they carried all three of the unconscious boys down into their lair.
