Pop. Harry suddenly appeared in a forest. Though there was no one near him, he held out his wand and spun in circles, panting slightly. He stopped, his breathing easing a bit, and looked at his surroundings.
He knew where he was: The middle of the forest where the four hundred and twenty-second Quidditch World Cup was hosted. Lucius had taken him there with Draco. But that was two years ago. Now, the area was deserted, and Harry was quite alone.
He pulled his rucksack out of his pocket, which he had put an Undetectable Extension Charm on, and starts rummaging inside. All his items are in there, because he put an Undetectable Extension charm on the rucksack too.
He feels around in his back, finally just summoning the tent out of his pack, causing other things to fly out as the tent flies by. Cursing, he summons them back to him when he notices something he didn't pack.
It is a book. Harry reaches over to pick it up and reads the glossy silver letters.
"Advanced Potion Making Redone by Severus Snape?"
The book looks like its gold, but when Harry opens it, it turns to a maroon color. Harry riffles through the pages, pausing occasionally to read a potion name, until he reached the back of the book.
It wasn't as he thought. Instead of having more pages, the back is hollowed out to reveal several tiny cauldrons, each with its contents held secure in its base. Puzzled, Harry pulled them out. A note fluttered from the book into Harry's lap.
Harry
I Felt That These Would
Be More Useful To You
To Try Defeat
The Dark Lord.
I Added More Ingredients
To Your Bag
If You Choose To Create More.
Use These Well.
Severus
Amazed, Harry enlarged the cauldrons. The held the Draught of the Living Dead, An Elixir to Induce Euphoria, Veritaserum, Polyjuice Potion, and Felix Felicis.
He sat on a tree stump in amazement. How did Snape get the book in his trunk without Harry knowing? Did Snape have Bellatrix put it in?
A bright light illuminated the forest as a note and a red feather fell in front of him. Harry picked up the note and found a bizarre loopy writing on it.
To Mr. Harry,
I have been informed that a certain Bellatrix Lestrange help you to escape Voldemort. She took Voldemort's severe punishment and is currently locked away in a dungeon in Voldemort's fortress. Between you and me, you owe her your life.
Wishing you will do the right thing,
A.P.W.B.D.
"A.P.W.B.D?" he wondered aloud.
Suddenly, a light appeared in Harry's head. He waved his wand at his rucksack and everything but his potion book flies into the rucksack, and the sack into his pocket. He turned on his heel and wove his way into nothingness.
Pop.
Harry appeared on the cliff side facing a dark castle. Though it was mid-day, the sky around the castle was a murky black. The air was icy and shocking blue lightning flashed through the sky.
Harry pulled his shrunken Firebolt out of his pocket, enlarged it and shot off towards Voldemort's fortress. He soared around, watching Death Eaters examining maps through a window. He opened the window to his old bedroom with a wave of his wand and soared in.
He strode purposefully towards the door but stopped upon hearing voices outside. He heard the wheezy voice of the Death Eater Amycus, then Voldemort's icy tone.
Harry backtracked, his mind racing. Amycus's wheezy gasping grew louder. Quickly, Harry whipped out his wand and pointed it at his large wardrobe. It slid to the side, revealing a small hole under the rug that someone could slide through.
Harry quickly slipped his legs into the hole and held onto the ladder with his left hand and pointed his wand at the wardrobe again, causing it to slide into place as Harry descended on the ladder and Amycus entered the room.
Harry stepped off the ladder into a small dark tunnel. He raised his wand and muttered, "Lumos!" and his wand emitted a small beam of light illuminating 5 feet in front of his feet.
A scream suddenly erupted, echoing around in the tunnel. Harry froze as another scream, louder than the last, echoed towards him before speeding down the tunnel, blood pounding in his ears.
He skidded to a halt. He reached a grate which was level with the floor of the dungeon and his eyes. He saw Bellatrix's body collapse on the ground and the nearby door slam shut before locking itself.
"Bella?" Harry whispered.
Bella's bloodshot eyes flickered open and searched around.
"H-Harry?" she gasped out, "I w-wanted you out of h-here…"
"I'm getting you out," said Harry, his mouth suddenly dry.
He pointed his wand at the grate and shouted, "Confringo!" The gate blew off the stone holding it and slammed into the door. Harry reached out and seized Bellatrix by her wrist and pulled her through the hole.
Smash! The door and the grate flew away from the other wall and the grate slid into its original place.
"Reparo!" shouted Harry, aiming at the grate. Two Death Eaters barged through the smashed door and slid to the grate. One of them conjured a megaphone and shouted, "The prisoner has escaped! Get to the bedroom!" and the whole fortress echoed the message.
Harry and Bellatrix ran to the ladder, but before they got there, a beam of light shone down and Amycus landed in the tunnel, his evil grin spread across his face. Bellatrix snatched Harry's wand out of his hand and stunned Amycus. She ran forwards and grabbed his wand and tossed Harry's back.
"I need a wand," was her explanation.
The two of them climbed up the ladder. They were almost up when the wardrobe slide aside. They shared looks of horror and climbed through the hole in the floor. They straightened up just as a red jet of light flew over Harry's right ear. Death Eaters were pouring into the room.
Harry pulled out his Firebolt from his pocket and grabbed Bellatrix and ran to his outside balcony. But as he started turning, a hand gripped his right arm.
Darkness pressed on his eyes as he felt the familiar feeling of apparition, the unknown Death Eater's hand holding on tight to his right arm, Bellatrix holding onto his left.
I finally got the 4 chapter done. Once again, I might not write for a bit. R&R please!
