I have arrived.
I am at Voldemort's residence.
I find it amazing they have not found me, as I must reek of magic.
But Dumbledore thought of that factor as well.
He put the strongest protection on me of all.
They will not be able to sense me.
They will not be able to detect the magic that has so carefully concealed me.
Right now I cannot find the words to express my thoughts.
I am patiently waiting the moment when the last follower has left his lair.
I am also recording what I hear inside the cave so I must pause often.
I fear that someone will hear the scratching of my quill on paper.
But of course, Dumbledore has dealt with that as well as everything else.
They cannot detect me.
Not from sight, sound, or smell.
I find this most peculiar.
I could be as loud as I wanted, but I still dare not.
I trust Dumbledore. I trust him with my life. Which I have actually done.
It is my natural instinct to be quiet when I am in this much danger.
The last one has left his prescence. I have looked through his eyes, even ventured into the cave.
It is time for me to attempt a murder.
It consoles me that I will not go to Azkaban.
It comforts me that I have done right, though I have been raised to know murder was a horrible crime.
It will help me to realize I will have saved many lives with the death of one man.
I must go.
I must put my quill and parchment away.
I do not know if I shall ever return.
I may never write again.
Yet if I die, my parcel of records will immediately be transferred to Dumbledore and the Order.
Voldemort will never read what I have written.
If I do not return, I want to help my friends.
I want them to know they were the most important thing in the world to me.
They were closer than any family I have never known.
They were the best family I could have.
This may help them understand.
I will not be sad when I die. I will join Sirius and my parents.
I will talk with Sirius again and meet my parents.
I will get to know them like I never could.
Voldemort will not really be killing me after all.
Death is just the next great adventure.
But the prospect of killing is still black.
