Chapter 5: Finding Harry

"Lavender? Please wake up." Ron said desperately. "You have to tell me what you're talking about." He laid her down on her bed, and ran downstairs to get Hermione.

"Hermione! I need your help." Ron said.

"What?" Hermione asked, but was dragged up to the girls dormitory without an explanation.

"What happened?" Hermione asked, looking at Lavender's limp body.

"She fainted, or something. It's because she had a premonition, a big one." Ron said as Hermione pulled out her wand. "She said that Dumbledore was trying to hurt Harry."

"I doubt that. She was probably delirious." Hermione said, waving her wand over Lavender, making her wake up.

"Lav, are you okay?" Ron asked, kneeling down by her side.

"You have to help Harry." She said, bolting upright. "Before it's too late."

"Dumbledore wouldn't hurt Harry. You probably just read it wrong." Hermione said.

"No, you have to believe me." Lavender said desperately to Ron.

"Where did you see them at?" Ron asked.

"They were in a dungeon. Probably the ones on the last floor." Lavender said, trying to remember.

"You don't really believe her, do you Ron?" Hermione asked.

"I'm going to go get the Marauder Map. It will show where Harry is." Ron said, ignoring Hermione.

"Honestly. You are going to go running around the dungeons just because this slut said she 'saw' Dumbledore killing Harry?!" Hermione said.

"Don't call Lavender a slut." Ron said threateningly, right in Hermione's face. "Come on." He said to Lavender. Grabbing the map, he and Lavender ran out the door.

"Think hard Lav." Ron said as they ran down the stairs. "How much time is in between when you see something and when it happens?" He said, looking at the map.

"I donno. Sometimes a few hours, sometimes a few seconds." Lavender said, praying that they weren't too late.

"He's in Snape's classroom." Ron said as they ran through the halls. "And Dumbledore's with him." Ron said gloomily as they entered the dungeons. "All we have to do is take a right here, and we'll be there." Ron said, looking beside him, but Lavender wasn't there.

"Lav?" He said, looking around. Ron walked into Snape's room to see if she had gone ahead of him.

"Why, hello Mr. Weasley. Just in time." Dumbledore said, the usual twinkle was gone from his eyes, and was replaced by a fire of hate. Ron looked around the room, and gasped with horror.

Lavender was there, but she was chained up on a pole. Harry was next to her, also chained to a pole, but he was unconscious. Lavender was struggling, but nothing was working.

"What do you want with her? Let Lavender go." Ron said, trying to sound brave.

"But if it weren't for you psychic little girlfriend you wouldn't have known it was me." Dumbledore said, glaring at Lavender.

"I'm not his girlfriend." Lavender said stubbornly. "Not really."

"I thought you were better then this." Ron said to Dumbledore. "I thought you were good."

"And what made you think that?" Dumbledore asked, evil in his voice.

"You fought against Voldemort." Ron said, shuddering at his own words. "You helped Harry."

"The only reason I killed Voldemort was because he wanted to do nothing but kill Harry. And I wanted to do that." Dumbledore said with a nasty smirk. "As for helping Harry, I did nothing of the sort."

"You gave him the invisibility cloak."

"Ahhh, yes. I did do that, didn't I?" Dumbledore remembered. "I didn't want him to get caught if he decided to sneak around the school at night. I needed him to be around so that I could kill him easily."

"But you were friends with Harry's parents. His father gave you the cloak." Ron said, completely confused.

"We were not friends. Not after he took Lily from me." Dumbledore said. Ron looked shocked. "That's right. I was in love with Lily. But James wouldn't hear of it. He had to have her, he had to have everything." He said bitterly. "Going about his perfect girlfriend and his magical cloak. So I stole the cloak and told Voldemort were they were hiding."

"But. I just thought. that you were better then that. I thought you were against evil." Ron said, not believing that he use to idolize this man.

"Haven't you ever wondered why I chose the Defense Against the Dark Arts teachers that I do? I pick people from Voldemort's inner circle, so that they can help me kill Mr. Potter. And I picked Snape because he seems the type that would kill his enemy's son." Dumbledore said, smiling wickedly. "Not very many people remembered that James and I weren't friends. So I pretended to protect Harry. You, Ms. Brown, and Mr. Potter are the only people who know what I really intend to. So lets keep it that way." He said, fire flashing in his eyes.

"This is most inconvenient. I was only planning to kill one person tonight. But, I suppose, the more the merrier." Dumbledore sighed, whipping out his wand. "Now, let me think. How does that killing curse go again? It has been so long since I've used it. Ah, yes. Avada Kedavra!" Dumbledore shouted, waving his wand.
