Chapter Five
For the first time in many years Albus Dumbledore realized just how old he was. He sighed as he thought of the state of panic Minerva had been in when she reported back after going to visit Harry and to see how the muggles had reacted to finding the savior of the wizarding world on their front steps.
Flashback
"Albus," Minerva screeched, "they never found him! From what I could gather from Arabella a tall, thin man stepped out of the shadows soon after we left. At first he just stared at Harry then, after Harry demanded to be picked up, picked the child and his things, even the letter you left up and apperated away!"
End Flashback
Dumbledore now feared for the worst. Was this man a Death Eater? Did he take the young boy to exact revenge for the apparent defeat of the Dark Lord? Dumbledore sadly realized that Harry was probley all ready dead. The next day the following article appeared in the Daily Prophet:
Harry Potter- The boy who defeated the Dark Lord.

Today is both a happy and a sad day. We are overjoyed that He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named was defeated, but at the same time we are almost crushed by the fact that the child who achieved this feat is no longer alive. Just minutes after being released to his aunts and uncles custody he was abducted by what was apparently a Death Eater, in an act of revenge for the death of the Dark Lord. The Ministry of Magic reported to finding the body of the young boy brutally murdered, mangled beyond reorganization. So in this time of would be celebration we are all saddened by this turn of events.
