Fifth Year at Hogwarts

Ch.5

Disclaimer I don't own Harry Potter and other characters. They all belong to J.K.Rowling.

"He wants to kill Dumbledore."

Harry was shocked. He didn't know what to say, but he didn't have to say anything because Malfoy did.

"I better go home."

"OK."

Harry walked with Malfoy to the front door. Harry touched the doorknob and BOOM!

There was a really bad thunderstorm going on.

"I'll go ask Sirius if you can spend the night."

Harry ran upstairs. The he quickly ran back downstairs to tell Malfoy it was OK.

"Hey, Malfoy, are you hungry?"

"Don't call me Malfoy call me Draco."

"OK."

They walked into the kitchen and sat down at the table. Then Harry said:

"I think we should try to go to Hogwarts, tonight"

"What are you crazy? Walking all that way!" said Draco.

"Who said anything about walking." Harry said as he looked out the kitchen window.

Draco looking puzzled followed Harry's glance right to the car parked in the driveway.

It was settled that tonight Harry and Draco were going to try to save Dumbledore by going to Hogwarts and telling him that he was wanted dead.

Harry and Draco were going to sleep in the living room. That way they could sneak out easier (Harry noticed that the stairs creaked a little when you walked down them).

At about midnight they got up and sneaked to the door. Harry opened it slowly and walked outside.

Draco followed him. They got to the car and Harry got in the driver's side. He got out of the driveway pretty easily, but the road was another story.

He had only driven a couple times before and that was just driver's Ed. Uncle Vernon had never trusted him enough to practice on his car.

It was very dark out and Harry had never driven at night before. He was surprised when Draco said that he was a very good driver.

They drove for a while until they came to a fork in the road.

Harry thought Maybe we should turn back. If we get lost Sirius might get worried.

As if reading his mind Draco said "It would be better if we did this when it was light out, so let's go back."

Harry turned the car around and headed for his house.

When they got nearer to it Harry suddenly remembered that he had forgotten his key.

He told Draco this and Draco asked him "Do you have your wand? (Which Harry did have) Because you could always do the "Alohamora" spell.

"You're right, but what about the ministry?" Harry asked.

"Well, we could just take that chance." Draco said.

"OK, I mean we just can't knock on the door for Sirius to let us in."

Harry pulled into the driveway and he and Draco got out.

They walked up the stone steps to the front door.

"Well here goes nothing" Harry said as he pulled out his wand.

"Alohamora!"

The door sprang open. Harry expected to here the wings of an owl, but nothing happened.

They walked into the house and collapsed on the couch.

Sirius walked down the stairs and asked:

Where am I and who are you two?

"Sirius, what are you talking about?

"Oh, so that's what my name is, Sirius."

"Oh No!" Harry yelled as Sirius looked around the living room stupidly, "He has had a memory charm put on him!"

Draco looked shocked an suggested that they go to The Weasley's house and see what's going on.

Harry and Draco led Sirius to the car and this time Harry remembered his key.

Harry pulled out of the driveway and started to steadily drive down the road to the Burrow.

Harry and Draco started to get annoyed because the whole was Sirius was asking dumb questions like,

"What is this we are in?" and questions asking what colors certain things where.

Harry and Draco were relieved when they saw the Burrow in sight.

They got out of the car quickly and ran to the door. Sirius followed at a slow pace. They didn't wait until he got to the door to knock.

Ron opened the door a crack and asked "Who are you and what do you want?"

"Ron it's me and Draco. I know that you two don't get along, but that is no reason to ignore me." Harry said.

"Listen I don't know who you are and why you are pulling this prank. Just go away and leave me and my family alone." Ron said as he slammed the door shut.

"Somebody got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning." Sirius said in a very weird voice unlike his own.

"Let's try knocking again." Draco suggested.

"It's worth a shot." Harry said as he knocked on the door.

The door opened a crack and Ginny's voice said:

"What do you want?"

"Uhhh." Harry answered.

The door opened wider.

"Harry! I am so glad it's you and not some creep in a hood." They heard a rustle in the bushes behind them.

Ginny opened the door more and said:

"Get inside, quick!"

Sirius, Harry, and Draco hurried inside. Draco slammed the door shut.

The whole Weasley family was sprawled all over the kitchen and living room. All of them (of course except Ginny) had dazed looks on their faces.

"What happened to them?" Harry asked.

"I have no clue. Although it does look like a memory charm." Ginny answered. Then asked, "What happened to Sirius?"

Harry looked at Sirius and saw that he was examining the kitchen sink.

"Memory charm." Harry finally said.

All of a sudden the door crashed down and it revealed about 20 death eaters.

Draco saw what they were and pulled up the hood on his sweatshirt. He did this so he couldn't be recognized if his father was one of the death eaters.

Ginny ran for the stairs. She was almost there when one of the death eaters yelled, "Stupefy!"

Ginny stopped running and began to look very confused. She sat down next to Percy and the started a conversation about the kitchen sink with Sirius.

Two death eaters walked forward. One grabbed Draco and started for the door. The one that grabbed Harry said, "Harry Potter, Master will be most pleased when we bring you in.

Harry got a very unpleasant feeling when the death eater said this. He was thinking about hi life and if he died whether the Dursleys would miis him or not.

The death eaters led Harry and Draco to a rusty pipe. The death eaters all grabbed on to it. Harry and Draco were forced to hold it.

Harry felt himself lift off the ground and then he started spinning.

He could feel the death eater bumping into him on one side and Draco bumping into him on the other side.

After awhile they came to a stop. They were in front of a very large castle. Harry didn't know whether or not it was the Malfoy Manor or not.

He figured out it wasn't because Draco asked Harry if he knew where they were.

Harry's scar started burning. He held his hand up to his head and grabbed his scar.

"Stop fidgeting, boy!" one of the death eaters yelled at him.

They were led down a stony, cold passageway. At the end of the passage was a door. Harry didn't want to know what was on the other side.

The death eaters opened the door. Harry saw a man standing with his back to the door. Harry's scar hurt so badly he fell to the ground.

He didn't stay there long because he was forced back up again by one of the death eaters.

"Harry Potter, I will finally be able to kill you." Voldemort said keeping his back turned.

"Now having said that," Voldemort continued, I will have you wait in a cell to die."

I will make sure that these last few hours of your life will be the worst ever." After saying that Voldemort turned around, walked towards Harry, and touched his face.

Harry's forehead was about to explode.

"Take him away!" Voldemort ordered his death eaters.

Harry felt himself being dragged away and then he heard a door slam. That's all he remembered because he fainted.

"Harry wake up. Harry!"

Draco was shaking Harry awake.

Harry sat up and Draco said, "You fainted and I have been trying to wake you up for a half an hour."

Harry rubbed his eyes and they came into focus. He was sitting on the floor of a stone walled room with a big wooden door.

Harry reached into his pocket and was so happy that he had his wand.

"OK Draco, I have an idea and it is really simple. I will burn down the door with my wand and then we make a run for it."

"Do you have your wand?" Harry asked.

Draco reached into his pocket and pulled out his wand then said, "We could both try burning it. Then it will be stronger and faster."

They both muttered words to themselves and they door blew back on top of one of the death eaters.

Harry and Draco ran for it. They ran down passageway after passageway. Harry scar hurt more badly then ever then SMACK!

Harry and Draco were thrown back onto the floor. They had run into the person they didn't want to have anything to do with.



Voldemort was standing over them with wand in hand. Then they all saw a flash. He started to do a deadly curse but Harry and Draco were too quick.

Harry did a disarming spell and Draco did a hex. Voldemort was only thrown back a few feet.

He raised his wand again. This time Harry did the hex and Draco did the disarming spell. Voldemort was thrown back a few more feet.

This time Harry and Draco didn't hang around to see what would happen. They ducked under Voldemort and Harry kicked him in the knee so he fell.

As Harry ran for the exit with Draco by his side he was thinking,

That wasn't so hard to defeat him. After I kicked him he didn't get back up with a spell.

Draco and Harry saw the front door. They picked up their pace and when they got to the door pushed as hard as they could.

The door didn't move so the pushed it again. It didn't budge. Then Harry pulled on the door. It opened.

At this moment Draco was thinking how stupid they had been.

They ran out the door and then they saw a flash. It wasn't lightning. It had come from the bushes beside them.

Harry and Draco didn't want to hang around to see who it was. They kept running until they saw a dense forest.

Draco pulled Harry into the forest before Harry could say anything about it.
