Bad news

Next day everyone went home for Christmas. Only Harry and Hermione stayed at Hogwarts. They didn't mind it. They loved to be together. And they were together everyday.

They had long walks around the castle and by the lake. Sometimes they even went to the pond, where they kissed for the first time…

Before Christmas Dumbledore let them go to Hogsmade. They sat on Ice-cream Parlor when one wizard came into them.

"Harry potter, how wonderful to see you again."

"I'm sorry, but do I know you?" asked Harry who saw that wizard for the first time.

"Oh, you don't remember me?? Come with me. It'll take only few minutes and I'll tell you how we met."

Harry looked at Hermione who shook her head. "Why should I trust you?" asked Harry.

"Why should I harm you?" asked the wizard with innocent voice.

"Alright then. Come on Hermione. Let's see what he wants." He said when he stood up and took her hand.

"No, no. Miss Granger can stay here. It won't take long." Hermione let go Harry's hand.

"Go on. I'll wait," she said sadly.

Harry kissed her. "I'll be right back." He said and followed the wizard. He leaded Harry to one small room and then he started to change. It was Bellatrix. "Hello Harry, I'm sure you remember me now."

Harry took out his wand, but Bellatrix was faster. "Accio." She said and Harry's wand flew into her. "Now listen me Potter. I'm not going to hurt you-yet. I have a message from Dark Lord."

"And what this message is?" he asked angrily.

"He asked me to tell you that if you ever want to see miss Granger again, then go to Shrieking Shack tomorrow night"

Harry didn't listen anymore. He ran fast back to the table where he sat with Hermione, but she wasn't there.

"Tomorrow night in the Shack." Said Bellatrix who was behind Harry. She gave him back his wand and disappears.

Harry couldn't describe his feelings. He was sad and angry. Hurt and mad. He wanted to kill Voldemort more then ever before.

When he was back in the common room he sat down by the fireplace and just cried.

McGonagall walked in. "Harry. Something bad has happened."

"I know," said Harry without looking at her.

"You know?" she asked being really surprised.

"Hermione was kidnapped" he said and tears fall down his cheeks faster. McGonagall put her hand on his shoulder.

"We'll get her back. Dumbledore is working on it." Harry said nothing. Apparently they didn't know that he had to meet Voldemort tomorrow night. McGonagall was in the common room just a little time before she left.

Next day in Great Hall Dumbledore said to Harry that he want to see him in his office this afternoon.

Harry went to his office as he had promised.

"Harry, is there something you want to tell me?" he asked. Harry had a feeling that Dumbleodre knows that he'll meet Voldemort this night.

"No," he said and looked down.

"You're hiding something Harry." Harry didn't say anything. He was still looking down.

"May I go now," he asked finally.

"Yes you may. But before that you have to promise me that you will not start finding Voldemort."

"I can't promise anything," said Harry quietly.

"Harry, I know how you feel about miss Granger and you just lost Sirius. Don't do anything stupid."

"YOU KNOW NOTHING" yelled Harry. "No one knows does she live or don't. I NEED TO SAVE HER. IT'S MY FAULT THAT SHE'S GONE NOW," he yelled again and run into door, but Dumbledore locked it.

"I won't let you go there alone" he said calmly.

"If I won't go, then they KILL HER," he was still yelling, anger in his eyes. "Now LET ME OUT!"

"No one is going to kill her."

"Voldemort is going to kill her if I'm not going."

"Voldemort is going to kill you if you're going."

"I DON'T CARE! As long as I can save Hermione."

"Don't rush Harry. He's more powerful then you are now. You are blinded my hate and anger right now. AND you're hurt. I will open the door if you promise me that you won't go to Shack tonight." Harry had no other choice then promise that. But he felt himself very bad, because he had given Dumbledore a promise what he couldn't keep. He knew that Dumbledore didn't deserve that, but he had to save Hermione. She was more important now.
