Chapter 8: To the rescue or not?

The next day during breakfast
"Harry you sure, Hermione will be alright," asked Ron. "I don't know?" said Harry slowly. A black owl swooped downwards dropping a letter on the table. It had furry black skin and red eyes. It flew away immediatly. "Bit early for mail isn't it!" said Ron. "I've never got mail after Sirius died!" said Harry slowly. He ripped open the envelope and gasped as he saw what was written:

Your Hermione is gone, held as a hostage. If you do not reach here within a week, she'll be dead!

"Ron read this!" said Harry slowly. "What?" asked Ron and his face changed as he read the letter. "We've got to save her!" exclaimed Harry noticing a portkey fall from the envolope, He was about to grab it when, "No Harry we've got to tell Dumbledore," he said. "Oh! Ok," said Harry carefully carrying the envelope with the portkey sticking out.


Back in the camp Draco was wondering if he'd done the right thing. "I should've asked payment for her" he thought. He quickly wrote a letter stating that he wanted payment or he would take back Hermione and tied it to a barn owl. Outside all Muggleborns which weren't sold were working hard, Dean and Seamus digging. "Do you think Harry will save the day?" asked Dean seriously. "Nah! I don't think so, his Hermione is somewhere," said Seamus. "Wait a sec. You know that stone Drac..he uses for luring Muggleborns right!" said Dean digging deeper taking out a gold piece and throwing it into the box. "Yes," said Seamus. "So what about using it and.." began Dean. "What difference does it make?" asked Seamus. "Hermioine is a Muggleborn too, so it will also take Hermione with the whole," explained Dean. "So you mean, Harry would come to save Hermione along with.." "Yes that's right," said Dean throwing another gold piece. "When," asked Seamus. "Midnight when everyone's asleep," said Dean quietly.


Back in Dumbledore's office, "Proffesor I got this," said Harry showing the note along with the envelope. Dumbledore read the note quickly and turned towards Harry. "It seems that Voldemort again, is trying to lure you away. It would be wise to wait for a week, which Voldemort wouldn't expect," said Dumbledore quietly as Harry and Ron nodded.


A/N. This is VERY short, and confusing I suppose. All will be explained in the next Chapter which will come very soon. Today if possible! Thanks to the reviewers: Muggleborn22, meriweather weasley!
