Chapter Eleven

I blinked when we finally stopped. And sighed as I looked at the familiar surroundings. "Alright Miss. Evans?"

"Moody. Just fine thank you."

"Finally back to work are you?"

"Yes. Sorry for the delay."

"An expected delay. You look better than before."

"Thanks. I've had some help."

"Help?" Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody gave a quick look at Dumbledore.

"The Lupin family have taken her in, and have cared for her quite diligently this summer."

"Ah. I see. Good family. A pity what happened to them."

"Yes. But they've come out on top."

"They're good people," I cut in. "What do you need me to do?"

Dumbledore turned to me, "Nothing yet. Just going to explain what you'll be doing once you get back to Hogwarts."

I gave a quick nod. At the beginning of last year Dumbledore had caught me experimenting with different spells and potions that I found in the Restricted section. I had been doing this for a while, and I suspect that he only "caught" me when he felt I was old enough to do more with them than to experiment. Ever since then I've been an "unofficial" member of the Order of the Phoenix. Working on different traps and poisons that Voldemort had been setting. Moody took a liking to me after I saved his skin from a nasty version of the jelly-legs curse (it actually turns your legs to jelly. I wasn't able to save one leg, but the fact that I was able to stop it from spreading and reverse it for the most part was all he needed.)

"What do I need to do?"

"There's a vanishing cabinet that has been placed in the castle, I had it set up to the network so that families could be transported to the castle for safety. However, Tom has found out about it, and was going to use it to his advantage. I was able to take it off of the network for everywhere except for it's sister cabinet that I can't locate. I would like you to disable it. I can't have Tom or any of the Death Eaters getting into the school while all the students are back, which is what I fear he plans."

"Of course professor. I can handle that."

"Good," Mad-Eye said gruffly. "It'll take a heavy amount of charms and we've found you're the best with it. Though sadly we aren't the only ones who have noticed."

"What?"

"We think that someone leaked that you're the one that has been breaking all the traps, crippling many of Tom's attacks," Dumbledore cut in. "We're investigating it as a cause for the attack at Christmas."

I sat in shock. "Well that would explain why they'd single my family out I guess…"

"Miss Evans. We understand if you'd like to stop your work for us with this being the case. You're not of age. We shouldn't even be asking you to risk yourself like this anymore."

"No. I can't stop now. Not when it's become so crucial. It's not like I have anything left to lose do I?"

"Miss Evans-"

"No sir.I'm doing this."

"Alright. Over here are the plans and work that's done on vanishing cabinets. All the information you'd need. You can look over them now, and they'll be given to you again when you get back to the castle for more reference points as needed…"

I went over to the table to look at the plans. Doing all I could to focus on the papers across the table and suppress the memories that had been flooding my head since they mentioned the attack. I can't stop this work now. If I can do anything to stop Voldemort I will. Even if I don't get a chance, I don't want any other muggleborns to have to feel lost between two worlds, neither of which being able to fully join.

A/N I'm so so so sorry about not posting before. Life hits you hard sometimes. however, I will get caught up again with this story if you'd like. Just give me a hard time if I start slacking again.
