Chapter 3
5 months after the attack Harry had just finished cooking breakfast and Voldemort came in to the room. Over the months Harry had become much more subdued then he used to be and Voldemort didn't have to hurt him as much as he had in the first few months.
But today Harry had run out of some foods that he needed to cook dinner. So far the cupboards had seemed to fill themselves but it seemed as if the charms making them do that had fail and the cupboards were now empty.
Harry walked over and knelt a metre or so away. "Sir, the cupboards have stoped refilling and I am running out of cleaning agent." Harry asked. Voldemort didn't answer at first and Harry almost left but then Voldemort spoke. "Well I suppose you haven't left this room in 5 months so you could go down and get some from the kitchen but I don't want you talking to the other students down there. So you can go if you have a silencing charm on you." "But how will I tell them what I want?" "You can find it yourself. You can go after you have finished the cleaning. Don't make lunch I won't be here. But dinner must be on the table when I get back or you will never leave this room again. Silencio." Voldemort finished before standing and leaving the rooms.
Harry finished his chores and then left the room. He made sure that no Death Eaters saw him on the way and reached the kitchen in record time. He got to the entrance of the kitchen and took a deep breath before opening it.
Inside all the ex-students were running around getting lunch ready for the Death Eaters. A first no one notice and he just watched them all. Some of the teachers had been put in the kitchen as well it seemed. Professor McGonagall was ordering some students around to get the food served. Also Professor Sprout and Flitwick were helping on the other side of the room.
"Harry?" someone yelled across the room. Everyone stopped, all eyes on him. Before all his friends swamped him. The Ron and the other boys from his year patted him on the back a little harder then was necessary, while Hermione, Ginny and Luna, his Girlfriend, hugged him while crying. He couldn't help but cry as well wishing he could tell them he was fine.
"Harry please say something." Hermione said. But he just shook his head and motioned to his throat, trying to say that he couldn't. But it only made the girls cry more.
When they finally let him go, Harry tried to tell them what he wanted but in the end Hermione had to find some paper and a quill for him.
I'm fine but I can't stay long if Voldemort gets back before me there will
be hell to pay and I won't be able to leave his rooms again.
Hermione read out what he wrote for everyone.
I finally found a way to come and see you I wanted to talk to you but
Voldemort put a silencing charm on me so that I couldn't.
But I also need some Cleaning agent Herbs Curry powder Vegetables Eggs
Hermione told some nearby students to get the items then turned back to Harry who was writing again.
How are you all has anyone been hurt?
"A few students were killed in the beginning because they tried to escape, two 5th years and one 3rd but after that we all learnt to behave." Hermione informed him, "But what about you? Are you OK?"
I am fine I just have to do the cleaning and cooking then I can do what
ever. But he put a whole load of charms on me so I can't escape. So I
haven't left his rooms since the attack.
"Oh Harry why did you agree to him? Why?" Ginny asked.
Because I would rather be Voldemort's slave then live knowing that he killed you all and I could have done something about it. But now I have to go before he gets home. If I meet a Death Eater on the way there will be
hell to pay so I will take longer to get there. Love you all.
He hugged Hermione, Ginny and Ron then kissed his Girlfriend and took the bags offered to him by the other students and went to leave. But McGonagall called out to him before he could leave. "Wait Harry there is someone who wants to see you before you go." She beckoned him over to her and lead him into another room.
The room was full of beds one of which was occupied. He looked at his old teacher then walked over to the bed. On it was a rather sick looking Professor Dumbledore. Harry knelt down next to the low bed and watched the Headmaster.
"Voldemort ordered him tortured and he was left here last week when they worked out that he was dying." McGonagall told him. Harry was shocked. He had never thought that Dumbledore may die someday. He had always seemed unstoppable.
"Harry?" Dumbledore rasped. "Is that you?" Harry could only squeeze his hand in response. "Yes it's him Albus but Voldemort has silenced him," McGonagall responded for him.
"Harry. you did.a very noble thing. to protect your friends. Don't. give up hope. you. will get out of here. But you have to stay strong. or the other students will give up." Dumbledore told him.
Harry nodded and gave the man he had always looked up to in his years at Hogwarts a hug. They could hear new voices in the kitchen so McGonagall and Harry went to see who it was.
"Where's our dinner it was meant to come 2 minutes ago!" it was Lucius Malfoy and his son Draco. "Potter! How did you get out, you know what will happen if our Master gets back and his dinner isn't on the table. You wouldn't want something unfortunate to happen to your little Mudblood friend would you?" Harry shook his head and made to leave but was stopped. "Wait a minute you wouldn't want word to get out that you are being respectful would you Potter." Malfoy Jr. smirked at his rival.
All the old students were watching Harry to see what he would do. He had no choice but to obey orders or his friends would suffer. Harry let himself fall to his knees, head bowed and stayed there waiting to be aloud to stand again. "Good boy. Now you all see what a model slave should be. Get out of here Potter." Harry didn't need telling twice and left as quickly as possible trying to avoid his friends eyes as he left.
