Ch 19 Disaster

Albus, Vallery, Victor and Alastor sat in the Potter's kitchen with the mirror. Sirius had fallen asleep on the couch.

"Vallery, why don't you take Sirius upstairs," Albus suggested. Vallery agreed and picked the small boy up and carried him upstairs.

"I'm worried, we haven't heard anything in hours."

"Victor, it is time to go to the Malfoy residence. We were going to wait for James's reply as a conformation but I'm positive that's where Voldemort is staying."

"Albus, if you're wrong, what'll happen to James?"

"Victor," Alastor growled, "You need to trust Albus. He has experience in these things."

"I know Alastor, but he's my only son."

"Victor, we will get him and he will be safe."

"Albus is right Victor," Alastor growled again.

"Well, I'm afraid I feel I may have been right about James being Imperised. It may be the only explanation for him not responding to us."

"Maybe he just hasn't had alone time to do it," Victor said with a worried look.

"I'm afraid I have to agree with Albus," said Alastor. "I think the boy is under his control."

Victor looked scared at this.

"We will reverse the curse, as long as you trust me." Albus said.

"I trust you Albus, all I want is my boy back."

"Well then we must get ready." Albus said.

"What about Sirius?"

"He will be fine here. He'll have the mirror. It is his after all."

"How did we manage to know James had the mirror?" asked Victor, he had been at work when James was kidnapped after all.

"Sirius saw it happen and looked through the trunks. He realized it was missing and concluded the boy had it. We feared Voldemort would have found it on the boy and stolen it. If he figured out how to use it we would be in grave danger. Luckily James had it with him still. It seems only his wand has been taken."

"What will Voldemort do with James now that he's under his control?" Alastor asked.

"Well, Alastor, James is now his puppet. He will use him to get to us. If he asks James to tell him where we are, he will. If he forces him to curse us when we walk in he will. We can't do anything until I can get James safely home and remove the curse. It will be difficult. I do hope Tom will be more intelligent when it comes time to release the boy."

"What makes you think he will release the boy?"

"Voldemort doesn't know about certain magic. He will not realize there is a way of removing the curse. He believes only he will be able to do it. He will release te boy in hopes of having him spy on us. My only fear is he will be controlling the boy when I try to do the counter curse. That's when damage to the mind and soul can be done."

"A lot relies on chance Albus," Alastor said.

"Moody, will you shut up!" Victor roared. He never raised his voice to Aurors, especially Alastor Moody, but he was tired and scared for his son's life.

"When do we leave Albus?" Alastor asked as if nothing had happened.

"Shortly.

Voldemort was deep in thought. He had the boy under his control and he would use their own son against them. How could a pure blood family like the Potters, who date back centuries as his mother's did, refuse to join his forces? He knew the Black's weren't part of his army but that was because the were still faithful to him, except their eldest son, but he would be dealt with.

Once the potter walked through the doors he would stn them and have their own son destroy him before he killed the boy. Wiping out the Potters would do well since they do not wish to join his forces. He wouldn't have his Death Eaters with him, this was personal business.

"My lord, the boy has awoken." Avery said.

"Thank you Avery, now leave." Voldemort stated firmly. Avery bowed himself out as Voldemort made the boy come to him. A minute later the boy walked through the door and bowed.

"Stand and face me," Voldemort said and the boy stood and looked him in the eye.

"When your parents come you are to escort them in. If they try to take you and run I want you to curse them. Do you understand?"

"yes my lord." James said bowing.

"Very good, now go stand in the corner and wait." James stood ad walked towards the corner in the shadows.

Excellent, Voldemort thought to himself. He was pleased all was going to plan.

"Alright, Vallery, Victor, I am going to cast the disillusionment charm on Alastor and myself. We will follow you in. Victor will enter first and Vallery will hesitate, that's when Alastor will walk in and I will brush Vallery and that will be you cue to walk in. We will follow at a distance."

"Albus, what will happen if you are caught?"

"Vallery, do not worry about me, just worry about your son."

Se agreed and they four of them got up and walked out of the hours.

"You know the place, disparate just outside the gates. We will find you."

Victor and Vallery agreed. With a pop they were gone, Alastor followed and finally Dumbledore left with a final look at the house where Sirius was sleeping alone. He had left a note explaining where they were going and hoped he would be safe.

"Where do we go from here?" asked Victor.

"Wait for the other two," Vallery stated. Not afer she said it did Albus and Alastor appear.

"I will put the charms on us now, all I ask of you is not to lose sight of where we are."

"We'll try our best Albus." Victor said.

"Excellent," he said.

"How are we supposed to get in?" asked Vallery.

"I'm sure they'll let you in, you have an appointment after all."

"What do we do?"

"Push on the gates."

"Are you sure it'll let us in?"

"Yes, go on Victor."

Victor walked up and pushed the gates. The gates melted away at his touch. He let Albus and Alastor walk ahead of him and Vallery then sped up to be in front.

When they reached the door Victor knocked. A voice could be heard on the other side.

"Who's there?" It was a gruff voice and didn't sound very friendly.

"We are the Potter's, the er," Victor stopped here he didn't know exactly what to say. "The dark lord has requested to see us."

The door swung open on and Victor walked in. As planned Vallery hesitated, but she wasn't just hesitating because she was supposed to she really was worried something was going to happen. Then she felt Albus brush her arm and final walked in.
