Potter's Eleven
Chapter Five
The doorbell of Snape Manor rang and a couple seconds later, Snape opened it.
"What did you guys get a group rate or something?" he asked sarcastically as he looked at the eight people standing at his doorstep. He lead them out back to his swimming pool and told everyone to wait for Harry to arrive. As they waited, Cha Chang sat on the diving board and started building a card house with a pack of Muggle cards and everyone else stood around eating and drinking. Finally, Harry arrived and everyone looked over towards him.
"Everyone eating?" he asked as he looked around, "Everyone sober?"
Sirius put his drink down.
"Close enough," Harry continued, "As of right now, no one is on the line. If you decide that this isn't your plan of vodka, then go ahead and eat and drink as much as you want and leave - no hard feelings. If not, though, follow me into the house."
Everyone followed him into the house except for Dennis Creevey. Snape walked up to him and looked at him.
"You failed my class every year," he said.
Dennis nodded.
"You out at Hogsmeade?" he asked.
Dennis nodded.
"That's great. You'll like it out there. Now get in the goddamn house."
Dennis went into the house.
"This is a holographic blueprint of the Quidditch Pitch," Harry started as he magically projected a lay-out of the floor onto a wall.
"First, bad news," Harry continued, "This place houses a security system to rival that of Hogwarts."
"So, it's a smash and grab job?" asked Dennis who had just walked in with Snape.
"Not quite," Ron answered.
"Of course," Dennis said, embarrassed.
"Anyways, this place has a really tight security system," Harry continued, "First, we're going to have to get past the security doors, which anyone will tell you takes more then a smile. Then, we'll have to get past another security door that requires three six digit codes that are changed every six hours. Next, we have to get down an elevator which requires voice conformation,"
"Which we're not going to get," Ron interrupted.
"And finger print conformation," Harry continued.
"Which we can't magic," Ron added.
"And we can't manually over ride it because it would shut down and lock us in there. After that, it's just two armed guards and the most elaborate vault ever conceived by man," Harry finished.
"OK, so let's say that we do get through the doors that we have to have codes for and down the vault we're not going to move and through the vault door we can't open, are we just going to walk out?" Sirius asked.
"Without the magic cameras seeing us," Ron added.
"Oh, yeah, I forgot to talk about the cameras. Roger's magically charmed cameras to record everyone. But, Sirius yes, we are going to just walk out of there," Harry said.
"Oh. So what's the good news?" Sirius asked.
"Well, the law states that a casino must have enough galleons in its vault to cover every chip on the floor. That means that on a regular week day, there must be at least 8 million galleons in the vault. On a weekend, there must be 10 million galleons, and on a game night, like the game between Puddlemere and Wimbourne for the European Cup in two weeks, the night we're going to rob it, there must be by law 25 million galleons," Harry replied.
George whistled.
"You can do the math," Harry said.
"The first task will be reconnaissance. I want to know everything about everyone who works in the casino," Harry said, "Let's get on that as soon as possible."
