Author's Note-Sorry about the huge delay guys. I'm sending this out, because I no longer have a useable account. I plan to make one soon enough, but for now, I am Lord Voldemort will be posting any updates. I will hopefully be able to finish this in 3 or 4 more chapters. I planned on more, but cut it short due to the fact that I don't get much time to write, and hate to keep you guys waiting so much. Please read/review, because its highly appreciated. Thanks to everyone who reads this fic. BTW, sorry its so short, but I wanted to make sure I didn't lose everyone by not updating. The next chapter will be longer. Also note that there will be quite a few errors as the grammar sections of this were rushed. Sorry about that.
Chapter 12-Homeland Security
Harry stood there stunned for a few moments. He hadn't really absorbed all that had just happened, and needed time to think on it. He stepped into the fire, was put under the charm, the man came out of the fireplace, lifted the charm, dueled with his attacker, banished him somewhere, and now he was supposed to get back to Hogwarts.
"HARRY!" Screamed Hermione, who had been watching from the edge of the house.
Harry wheeled around, now fully realizing the size of the situation. He actualy had saved her. Something inside his head told him this wasn't very possible, but he did it. And it wasn't even that hard.
"Hermione! Are you OK?" He asked, rather predictably.
"I don't know. I don't remember anything. Well... except my dreams. I remember a lot from that. It was so scary Harry, I kept reliving the night you left. I walked into your room with breakfast, and you were gone. I remembered all the nights I felt so alone without you. It was supposed to torture me Harry, make me turn against you, but it didn't work. It only reminds me how I feel without you Harry. I need you back, promise never to leave me. Not to put me through that ever again." She was on the verge of tears. So much emotion was pouring out of her words. Harry felt terrible.
"I promise Hermione, I really do. I won't let anything else happen to you." He replied. "We need to get back, Rider said something important had just happened. We need to hurry."
"How're we supposed to get to Hogwarts, we don't even know were we are. We can't apparate too far, or we'll get splinched, and we don't have anything else."
There was only one way Harry thought. They had to go back into the house and use the same Floo Connection Rider used. It was a risk, but it was the fastest way there.
"Just follow me. Quickly." Harry rushed back into the house, and pulled out some of his emergency Floo Powder. As he approached the room, he withdrew his wand, and pointed it inside. After quickly making sure the room was clear, he let Hermione in, and they used the fire to get to Hogsmeade.
When they got onto Hogwarts grounds, nothing appeared out of the ordinary, but as they pushed open the doors of the Entrance Hall, they entered a castle full of chaos.
Inside the Great Hall, the entire school was lined up and chatering away. Students look horrified, and worried.
Harry pushed through the crowd, keeping Hermione right behind her. He reached the staircase, were he found one of the Head Girl, Suwana Tringer.
"What happened?" He asked urgently.
"There's been a kidnapping. Well, we think its a kidnapping. Minnie Weasley is missing. Nobody knows were she went, her friends says she went down to the grounds for a walk, and didn't come back up. Teacher's are searching the school as we speak." She replied, so calmly, that it appeared as if she didn't care.
"Is the Headmaster here?" Harry wondered if he was still in the hiding spot.
"Yes, why wouldn't he be?" She replied smartly.
"Because he was... on business for the day." Harry said, getting very annoyed with this girl.
"Well, I don't know if the confusion's got to you, but the Headmaster has been here all day. I was in a Head Boy and Girl Meeting with him all day. There are quite a few issues this school has that need to be sorted out." She replied, finally adding some interest to her voice.
Harry didn't even bother asking her anything else, but simply walked right by her.
"Hermione, go find McGonogall, tell her and the other teachers to meet me in the Headmaster's Office." Harry told her, and without even waiting for a reply, he headed the other way.
He reached the very familiar stone gargoyle, and spoke the password.
"Wallowing Wombats" He said.
He walked up the stairs, but in place of a door there was nothing. The entrance to his office was gone, and inside it, there was a man, sitting in Dumbledore's chair, next to him, was Minnie, and next to her stood Rider.
"Welcome Harry Potter. I believe you would have met one of my colleagues, he will be joining us shortly. Meanwhile, lets get down to the brass tax shall we?" The man replied cynically.
"Who the hell are you?" Harry replied.
Minni was bound magically to the chair, and though her mouth was moving, it was obivous she had a silencing charm on her, because no sound was coming out.
"You can call me Mortis. The man you met earlier was Fangs, and the third member of our delightful trio goes by the name Fangs. That however, is unimportant. What is important is that you help us."
"Bloody hell, I thought you were dense, but I didn't know you were stupid. Why would I help you?" Harry retorted.
"Well, for many reasons. One, because I'll kill you if you don't. Two, I'll kill her if you don't." He nodded at Minnie. "Three, I'll kill everyone else in this castle if you don't, but mainly because if you don't you won't get to see any of the people you love again."
"Well, playing the "I'll bring back your parents" card hasn't really worked with me, you see I don't really give a crap about them. And if you planned on killing everyone in this school, you would have done it already. As for killing me, HA-HA."
"To asnwer you, I wasn't talking about your parents, I was talking about one Hermione Granger, who is, as we speak being tortured to insanity." Harry's heart lept. "Who says I haven't killed everyone else in the school, and thirdly, iAvada Kedavra/i" As he spoke this, a jet of green light shot out of his wand, and went zooming right at Harry. Harry didn't have time to respond.
The light went right between Harry's eyes, and suddenly stopped. It just swirled around in the air, not making any forward progress, yet still spinning.
"Amazing isn't it. The ability to control spells while they're in the air. Any spell, anywhere, all I have to do is raise my wand, and the spell is mine. Under my command. Imagine the power. The flick of my wrist, and bam! No more curse." And as he said that, he motioned with his hand, and the curse vanished from the air. Gone.
"So you see Mr. Potter, I can kill you. If I had so desired, I could have let loose that curse on you, and you would be no more. And finally, your girlfriend has just given up some very intersting information. Is it true that you have a never-ending love for this women. She seems to think you will be able to come save her. Foolish girl."
Harry raised his wand, and yelled "Referum Rectus".
The spell barely made it out of Harry' wand before the man swished his eblow, and it pummeled back at Harry. Harry was hit with so much force that he heard his ribs crack. The spell was supposed to lock the man's wrist. Harry thought that if he couldn't flick, his edge would be gone. Harry was wrong.
"Now that you know my full power, shall we get down to bussiness? Excellent. There is a potion I need. In order to complete the process, I need this potion, yet there are ingredients which I know not were to find. I believe however that you can help me there Mr. Potter. Just have a look, tell me what you know.
The man handed Harry a very old and crumpled piece of parchment. Harry took it, locked wrists and all.
Before he could read it however, a man walked through the fire, wand pointed out, smiling wickedly.
"Everything secured Mortis. All things check. Dumbledore fell right into our plan. As we speak, he is stuck in the dungeons. The anti-magic spell you put on there was absolutely brilliant. And the map made finding everyone easier than taking a chocolate frog from a baby." The man smiled evily.
"Good job Fangs, if all goes well, you shall have your rewards as promised. Go make sure Sinco has everything under control, and give him a re-fill of polyjuice potion."
"Of Course."
"Now leave us." He turned to Harry and continued. "Now, back to our confligration. Read the recipe, and we'll go from there shall we." His voice was more cynical than any Harry had known.
He fell right into their trap. Hermione was the diversion to get him, Dumbledore, and Lupin out of the castle. Know they had Dumbledore, and Harry didn't even know were Remus was. The whole school was in danger, and Harry felt somewhat responsible. He had to do something, but to do that, he had to know what he was dealing with.
He lifted the torn parchmentand began to read it with apprehension.

Add 1 Wing of Fairydrew every 16.03 seconds, and stir 13 times clockwise, then 6 times counterclockwise, and keep at a temperature of 80 Degress Celsius. Do this 15 times, and each time you add a Wing of Fairydrew, decreases the temperature of the fluid by 2.06 degrees, and keep the flame to 97 degrees throughout the entire preparations.

When you add the two, make sure 2oz. of the blood are covering the Rometope, and the other 2oz. are in the mixture exactly .6 seconds before the Rometope touches the mixture. /i
Harry stopped reading there. He stared at the parchment. This man didn't want to bring Voldemort back, he wanted to ibe/b Voldemort.
"You expect me to help you get this? I don't even know what half of this stuff is." Harry spoke out skeptically.
"Knowledge is not a reuisite of cooperation. It has been confirmed that you have seen every single object on that list once in the past 2 weeks in your life. Everything with an "X" has already been retrieved. Worry only about the empty boxes. Come back only if you have everything, and every day that you don't get back here, I kill one student, so make haste in your actions."
The man named Mortis then raised his hand, and as if pushing the air, thrust it at Harry. It felt like being hit by a breaking charm in the stomach. Hary was thrown backwards, but when he landed, he was no longer in Dumbledore's office, but rather, he had been thrown out of the castle, and landed in the Forbidden Forest. As if by magic, he had been sent through the walls of the school, and straight out. He had little time to move, and could only think of one person who could help him. He needed to get to South America.
