Chapter 5

Operation Kill Harry Potter

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

It was a lovely, sunny day and Voldemort had summoned his Death Eaters back to the cleverly hidden hide-out. It had been several days and Voldemort judged it to be well aired out and clear of any stench that was left there by the mishap.

As Voldemort walked into the underground hideaway he drew in a deep breath and sighed happily to himself. That Febreeze stuff really works, he thought. He sat down in a nonexistant chair at the nonexistant table and switched on his new shiny laptop.

"Electronic devices don't work on Hogwarts grounds," Peter said remembering for once what Snape had told him.

Voldemort's computer switched off.

"Well," said Voldemort clearly fighting off any urge to physically hurt Peter after what happened last time. "We're not really on Hogwarts grounds, we're under it, so it doesn't count."

Voldemort's computer switched back on as did Peter's headset which he was carrying in his pocket.

"Oh, Baby Baby!" Peter exclaimed while putting on his headset. He then blew a giant raspberry at Snape who confiscated the walkman and spit in his face.

"Now, now boys," said Voldemort for once trying to avoid an altercation. "I've been brainstorming for the past few days and have come to the conclusion that since this is a secret operation we will be in the need of codenames. First and foremost we need a title for our mission. Anybody have any ideas?"

"What are we trying to do again?" Lucius said.

"Kill Harry Potter, you idiot!"

"Oh, yeah," said a glazed over Lucius. "Why don't we call it 'Operation Kill Harry Potter'?"

"Well, it's a little bit obvious, isn't it, you dolt," sneered Snape.

"No, no. I like it," said a pensive Voldemort.

"I do hope you're being sarcastic. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard," said Snape.

"No, I'm not being sarcastic. The plan name is simple and easy to remember. If anyone in the Ministry heard it they'd never suspect us. They'd think 'Voldemort and his gang sure must be stupid to name the operation that'," said Voldemort.

"Exactly," said Snape.

"What?" said Voldemort.

"Nothing."

"Well, that's settled. The plan is called 'Operation Kill Harry Potter'!"
