Hello again. I'm sorta sorry for being so late with this. Unfortunately as I was writing it my ADD kicked in and I forgot about it. I thought I would make it longer to show that I truly am shamed. I do not care if you dont like it, but if you do please review.

Disclaimer: I own noting except the plot. Damn it. Too bad I could be rich.

The Pendant of Loberus:

"Harry, what do we do now?" Hermione whispered to Harry as they retreated to the kitchen.

Harry didn't reply. He didn't know what to do. He had fully expected to murder Snape himself after he had gotten some of the Death Eaters plans out of him, but now it seemed he couldn't work up the nerve. He wasn't planning on telling his friends about this.

They were silent for a moment until Ron broke the silence," I say we force feed him Veritaserum, ask him a shit load of questions about You-Know-Who's plans, make him tap dance for us or something, then blow his bloody brains out!"

"Ron!" Ginny sighed. " Do you really think we make Veritaserum. It's really complicated and takes like 7 months!"

"Well," Hermione interrupted, " Since Snape was the potions master, I bet he has some Veritaserum somewhere in this house. If we can just find it-"

"I AM NOT GOING TO SNOOP THROUGH THAT EVIL GIT'S DRAWERS!" Ginny exclaimed. " FOR ALL WE KNOW HE HAS SOME CURSE ON HIS STUFF THAT WILL KILL US!"

"I don't think so." Harry finally spoke. "If he died, one of the Death Eaters would come to look through his things incase he had anything they needed. I reckon It would be safe for us to look."

"Right then." Said Hermione quickly. "You and Ron go upstairs and go through his room and any other rooms up there. Ginny and me can go down to the basement and poke around there."

With that the four went in their different directions only stopping for Harry to stun Snape. Harry and Ron crept up the dusty stairs. With each step the stairs gave an almighty creak that sent shivers through their spines.

They came out on a short landing with three doors leading off to other rooms. Along the walls were pictures of people being tortured or poisoned. Harry studied the one closest to him. This picture was obviously of a vampire killing some innocent wizard. The wizard was laying in a heap near the vampire's feet, His skin ghostly pale and waxy. Then there was the vamp crouched next to him sucking out of a large hole in the wizards neck. He looked up and glared at Harry and Ron, blood dripping from his fangs.

"Come on." Ron breathed. "That picture's scaring me."

Harry looked around at Ron who looked as white as the dead wizard. He decided it was best to get this over with. They headed off through the room on the left. This room was apparently Snape's bedroom. It was practically empty. The walls were completely bare except for a spider or two. All of his belongings seemed to still be at Hogwarts since he had no time to gather them before he fled. However there was a large wardrobe in the corner filled with black robes and a few pairs of shoes, and in the middle of the room was a lumpy bed covered with a brown comforter.

"Snape definitely isn't much of a home decorator is he?" Ron mumbled as he peered under the bed. "There's nothing under here except for this old sock and…. Hey Harry come here."

Harry looked up from the wardrobe and kneeled next to Ron. Near the back of the bed was a wooden case about the size of a cereal box. Harry reached out to grab it, but before he got there Ron grabbed his arm and pulled him back.

"Ron now what?'

"Don't touch it."

"Why?"

"It could be dangerous."

"Ron its just a box."

"What if it has hidden powers or something?"

"What kind of powers could a box have?"

"Well, dad told me he once found a box that when you touched it you went blind and once he got one that blasted you backwards if you got within four feet of it."

"Ron is this like when you told me about the books after we found Riddle's diary."

"NO!"

Harry rolled his eyes at Ron and reached out again to get the box. He cautiously brushed it whit his finger to make sure it was safe. When nothing had happened, he grabbed it and pulled it out from under the bed. He carefully lifted the rusty latch and creaked the lid open.

"What do you reckon that is?" Ron asked excitedly.

Inside the box was a small turquoise pendant on a silver chain. Harry reached down and picked it up before Ron could stop him. It looked like an ordinary pendant, maybe one of Snape's family heirlooms. The stone was smooth and cold to the touch. He flipped it over to take a look at the back. There was some kind of shape carved into the back, an animal of some sorts.

"What is that? Can you tell?" Harry asked handing the pendant over to Ron.

"Looks like a hippogriff to me. Wait no it only has two legs. Maybe a bird an eagle or hawk or-"

"A Raven!" Harry gasped and snatched the pendant back. Frantically, he began to search for something on the stone. Finally he found it. Right below the embedded ivory raven was the words Loberus Ravenclaw.

Harry collapsed on the dusty floor breathing heavily. He had not looked for any of the Horcruxes since Dumbledore died. All he had been focused on was Revenge on Snape. This had to be it. Something or Griffindor's or Ravenclaw's. He had found the third Horcrux.

"Harry? Mate? What is it?'

"Ron! This is it, one of the Horcruxes!"

"You mean those things You-Know-Who put himself in?"

"That's the one!"

"Yes! Wait how do you know?"

"Well, Dumbledore said that there were six Horcruxes. Two of which were already destroyed. The other four he thought were a locket, a badger cup, Voldermort's snake, and something of Ravenclaw's or Griffindor's. Since he already had the only known possession of Griffindor in his office, He supposed it was something of Ravenclaw's. This must be it! Voldermort must have given this to Snape for safe keeping!"

"That's good enough for me. Let's go tell the girls."

Just then they heard a high-pitched scream from somewhere below.

"HERMIONE!" They yelled.
