Chapter 13: Friends in High Places
"Oh isn't it done yet?" asked Ginny impatiently. "It takes time Miss. Weasley," hissed Professor Snape. "Beside, with what you are going to be going threw I wouldn't be in such a hurry if I were you." Ginny plopped down on couch in the dungeons. Snape had requested to be alone but Ginny and Ron had protested. Hermione was in the library looking up anything that could be helpful and Sirius was alerting the Order that Voldemort had Harry captive. Dumbledore informed the rest of the school what happened to Harry and nearly all of them (especially the younger years) wanted to go home. Dumbledore told them that the school would continue as if nothing had happened he just wanted them all to be on the look out for suspicious characters. However, Dumbledore did allow the students to go home a week earlier then normally for Christmas. So most of the school was packing to go home.
(Library) Hermione was going threw many books that looked helpful, ("Rates and Dinlexes: Mind Trapping" and "Spells of the Mind".) but none looked promising. She was just about to turn the page of "Potions for the Sleeping" when someone came up behind her and wrapped their arms around her. It startled her so much that she let out a terrified scream and jumped out of the person's grasps. " `ey, `ey. `is `ust mee," said her future husband with his hands in the air. Hermione had spun around and backed up to look at him. She released a long sigh. "Oh hun, you scared the bloody hell out of me," Hermione's breath was full and her chest was heaving up and down. "Wazt wonge?" asked Krum looking worried at his future wife. "I'm sorry I just forgot all about you coming to pick me up. But- hey how did you know Dumbledore was letting the students out a week early?" she asked him now with a curious look on her face. Krum smiled. "I goz a call from Dumbledorez," said Krum as he starred at his beautiful other half. She had her hands on her hips and her hair's defrizzing charm was wearing off. But her eyes were filled with concern and this troubled him. "Her-my-owe-y what is wrong? Dumbledorez wouldn't tell mee anyzthing." Hermione walked over to Krum and relaxed in his arms. "Oh Krum they got Harry. They got him. Now we can't enjoy Christmas because Ron, Ginny and I have to go and save him. I'm so scarred. I want him to be at our wedding. I wanted to spend a lovely Christmas with you and now I can't," she began to cry on his chest and he listened to her words. Krum was now very aware of the seriousness of this fright. It took quite a bit to get Hermione this upset and he didn't like it. "Her-my-own-y, let mee helpz. I wontz to helpz," said Krum as he pulled her chin to face him. "No, I couldn't bare it if anything happened to you. I just couldn't-" she started to shake her head "no" but Krum stopped her. "And Iz couldn't bearz it if anyezthing happened to you," he said looking her dead in the eyes. Hermione smiled. She was so lucky to have those people that surrounded her. So she shook her head okay. Krum smiled and they began to look threw the books again.
( At Number Twelve Grimmauld Place)
Sirius had owled and contacted everyone he could think of and told them to met him at Number Twelve Grimmauld Place. Now he sat in front of Tonks, Mad Eyed Moody, Lupin, Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, Bill, Charlie, Kingseley Shacklebolt, Emmeline Vance and Heastia Jones. "OK, as most of you already know Harry Potter had been trapped in a Dinlex by Voldemort. Dumbledore is going to send Ron, Hermione and Ginny in after him." Mad Eye stood up to protest. "Why send a bunch of children? Why not send professionals?" Everyone seemed to be wondering the same thing. "Because, in order to go into Harry's mind you have to know Harry well. And these three know him the best. Now some of us will be going in, but later. First, these three have to get Harry to try to brake the Dinlex and if he can get it weak enough. Then some more can go in but four is the most. We don't want to damage Harry's brain. Any more then seven people in there could cause him to go brain dead and he would be trapped in there forever along with whoever is in there to save him." After Sirius had explained that he would be needing three other people along with himself to go in to Harry's mind to pull him out completely after Hermione, Ron, and Ginny had made it weak enough; he asked if anyone wanted to volunteer.
As everyone looked at each other a voice rang from the background. "I will," said the voice of Mercutio Riddle.
***I had decided to try to do Krum's accent. Not sure if it is very good.
