November 21st
I know that you would not be happy to see what I am doing,
But have you ever known a Gryffindor NOT to interfere?
Again, the same blonde hair disappeared under the dark green cloak. She extinguished the candle with a snap and disapperated. Two companions were awaiting her this time, both with dark green cloaks and dark green masks pulled over their very familiar faces. "Good to see you," the blonde whispered to the two. "And you," a man whispered, grasping her shoulder in a strengthening gesture. The dark woman's hand held her wand at her side, ready to strike. "We hear he's found something of Ravenclaw's… a shield," she said, leaning nearer to the blonde. "Any news from the source?" the blonde asked, looking to the man. "They are planning to kidnap several members of the Wizangamot tonight… he has called all of the Death Eaters into action tonight. They will be visiting three locations. There is no knowledge of this raid of the Ministry," he whispered, looking around for signs of the Potter boy.
"Will they not notice that he has destroyed the shield?" the blonde asked as they watched the visitor's entrance from across the street. "It is in storage, in a room near the Department of Mysteries. It has not been displayed for at least 100 years. How Voldemort discovered it is a mystery to me, but I know that Harry has recently been given a journal of Dumbledore's. Flitwick found it in Dumbledore's personal possessions. It was locked, but opened immediately when Harry touched it. We think it contains information on the remaining Horcruxes. Dumbledore knew Harry would find the journal one way or another," the woman answered.
Potter appeared with a pop and quickly stepped into the phone booth, grabbed his name tag, and proceeded into the Ministry. The three masked protectors followed, allowing him enough time to make it down to the bowels of the Ministry.
In contrast to what everyone knew would await Potter's destruction of the final Horcrux, Nagini, he destroyed the shield in a matter of minutes after confirming that it was indeed a Horcrux. Dumbledore had left him specific instructions on the detection and destruction of the remaining Horcruxes. The trio had to hide quickly as Potter walked from the storage room, smoke following him from the room. He swung his invisibility cloak around him and disappeared, but his footsteps could be heard as he ran to the elevator to exit the building. The blonde, the man, and the dark woman waited in eerie silence as they allowed enough time for Potter to exit the Ministry.
After exiting the Ministry, the trio stood on the sidewalk near the phone booth. "I'll contact you when we have word that he is going after Nagini. It is the general consensus that when he goes for Nagini, he is also going to have to attempt to destroy Voldemort at that time. She is rarely out of his presence, so we think that once he destroys her, he will have to face Voldemort," the dark woman said, looking at the man, who nodded in agreement. The blonde squeezed both of their hands. "Then we will need to have everyone with us," she said, before disapperating.
Picking up the quill before retiring to bed, she wrote:
We're nearing the end of this.
