Chapter 2: Leaving Disaster; Entering Disaster
That chubby old man cowered before everyone who crossed him; it's a mystery as to how he is able to even look at Voldemort without bursting into tears. Harry was about to go and straighten Peter out when he heard a cry. It was from Remus, who had just been hit with a cutting course.
Peter completely left his mind as he raced over to Remus. Remus's leg had been cut open, blood was gushing out of it and flowing everywhere.
"Remus! Come on, let's get you out of here." Harry said as he hoisted Lupin up so that he was leaning on Harry's shoulder. It was obvious to Harry that Remus was in great pain so, without hesitation, he began scooting over to the front door. When Harry finally made it outside he was met with a very happy-looking Death Eater.
"This is perfect!" said the unknown Death Eater as he made a portkey. Without warning, the Death Eater took a hair from both Harry and Remus, then he shoved a portkey into Harry's open hand and before they knew it, Harry and Remus were in Voldemort's layer.
The Death Eater, that now had the two hairs, pulled a vial out of his pocket containing a thick green substance and called one of his fellow Death Eaters over. Together, the Death eaters separated the contents in the one vial so that they had two of them. They each put one of the hairs into their vial, and drank it. Ones features quickly changed to Harry's, the other did the same but instead became Remus. The two imposters then entered the house and found Dumbledore. Inside, the Order won the fight and was cleaning up.
The two imposters walked over to Dumbledore and the one pretending to be Harry said,
"Professor? Can you make a portkey to take us to…uh…Headquarters?" The Harry looked at Dumbledore hopefully. Dumbledore eyed him suspiciously and then replied,
"No, you will be coming with me. I need to take you to the Ministry so that we can get you into Apparation classes and make you a legal Adult enabling you to use magic outside of school without going to trial. I know that you are not of age yet but with Voldemort back, you need to be able to do these things." The to imposters flinched at the use of Voldemort's name. That was all Dumbledore needed to know that the two men standing before him were not who he initially thought they were.
Dumbledore began to muse on how he was going to deal with this situation. The think that was his biggest problem at the moment is where are the really Harry and Remus.
Voldemort slowly walked over to his new guests that just arrived stunning them before they had time to react. He noticed that one of his visitors was suffering from blood loss due to the huge gash in his leg. Voldemort snickered to himself, 'I should probably heal it for the health of my friend here, but I think I'll give it an infection before I do that though.' The Dark Lord then bent down and tapped the wound with his wand, leaving a green and black mist on the inside of it, then he sealed the wound. The poison will take a while to take affect but it will nonetheless.
Standing up, Voldemort snapped his fingers signaling that he wanted his prisoners to be taken to a cell. Before the sound of his fingers abated four Death Eaters were obeying their masters commands. Harry and Remus were dragged into a cell the size of Harry's bedroom at the Dursley's house. It had cobwebs draping down off of the ceiling as though they were a decoration, spiders clung to them like ornaments on a Christmas tree. The brick walls and floor had mold growing in the cracks. It was truly disgusting, but it was very fancy for the prisoners compared to Voldemort's usual. Before leaving the cell the Death Eaters revived both unconscious occupants of the room.
Harry woke up to the sound of footsteps fading into the distance. His back hurt as he sat up off the brick floor. As he surveyed his surroundings he realized that he was not were he was suppose to be. Remus awoke thinking the same thing. But in his case, he also wondered why his leg was healed. Remus remembered taking a portkey to some unknown place and then being stunned, but now his leg is healed. It would have to have been a Death Eater or Voldemort himself that healed him because Harry doesn't know how. 'This really doesn't make sense at all' he said to himself.
"Remus," a voice whispered to him. It was Harry. Remus turned to see Harry looking at him.
"How did your leg heal? I didn't do it!" Exclaimed Harry when he saw Remus' leg. Remus merely shrugged.
"We need to get out of here. Before Voldemort comes back and decides to curse one of us. Knowing him, he'll torture us until we are like the Longbottoms," Harry stated, Remus agreed and they both stood up. They began searching the room for a way out. A thought suddenly struck Harry, 'Wands.' Harry searched his pockets for his wand and sure enough, it was in his pocket where he put it to hoist Remus up. Voldemort must have forgotten about wands…how unlikely that is. Harry quickly told Remus about their awesome luck and told him to search for his. Unfortunately, Remus' wand is still at the Dursley's house, on the floor where Remus fell.
For about an hour, Remus and Harry discussed how they would escape. However, their conversation was cut short by the door opening. Lucius Malfoy walked in along with Bellatrix Lestrange. They went over to Harry and picked him up off of the floor. Remus stood up and tried to have them put Harry down but the combined strength of the two weakened men to the fed and well Death Eaters wasn't enough. So Harry was unwillingly dragged from the cell leaving a very distressed Remus behind him. Unknown to the Death Eaters, Harry has a couple of surprises in store.
Harry was taken to a well-furnished room. It was almost identical to the Slytherin Common Room that Harry and Ron visited in their 2nd year. The sofa in the middle of the room was black leather and the walls were stone signaling that they were in some type of dungeon. At the other end of the room was a chair which was occupied the, to some people, terrifying Lord Voldemort.
