Horcruxes

Chapter One: Prelude

This is a Half-Blood Prince Spoiler!

Harry opened his eyes when he was for sure that all of the Weasley's were asleep, for he was leaving tonight. Remaining still for a moment he listened to make sure he heard no noises before quietly climbing out of bed. Ron and Hermione would have to understand that they couldn't go with him this time. He had find the final horcruxes on his own since Dumbledore could no longer help him. Just thinking about an lump formed in his gut. Dumbledore had weakened himself with the potion only to get a fake horcrux.

But Harry had agreed that he wouldn't leave for Godric's Hollow until after Bill and Fleur were married, and they had married about a week ago now. So he had no enormous reason to stay because he had passed his apparation test a few days ago. He had gone back to the Dursley's for no more than two days before going to the Burrow. So here he was now, debating with himself on if he should leave now or just wait until morning. But if he waited then Ron and Hermione would try to keep him from going for as long as they could.

Then there was Ginny. The one Harry loved, but felt that they shouldn't see each other anymore. Yet she had still insisted that it didn't matter what Harry had told her the day of Dumbledore's funeral, only thing that mattered was that she loved him. And that she had loved him from the first time she had seen him. Even now she kept telling him that she still loved him, even though he thought it for the best if they didn't see each other anymore. That alone was a good enough reason for Harry to get out of bed and dress quietly.

Once he was dressed he made sure his invisibility cloak was inside his school bag and shrunk his trunk and placed it in his pocket. Quietly he snuck from the room, and to an area where he could apparate to Godrics Hollow. Though he looked back one last time at the Weasley's home, ever since his second year at Hogwarts, this had been like a home to him, a home that he had to leave. Turning on his heel he apparated away to Godrics Hollow.
