Chapter 8- Voldemort's spy

"Complication? What complication?" I asked hesitantly.

"Well, it turns out, our little "secret" leaked out." Said Albus quietly. "Will you please accompany me to my office?"

"Yes, of course." I answered. We walked quickly to the spiral staircase, Albus said quickly, "blood blister pod" and we stepped in. When we were inside Edward we sat down in two chairs facing Albus, who sat behind his desk.

"Was it the students? How did it even get out?" Edward asked. "Oh, we went to public." Edward groaned.

"Yes, my sources tell me it was a death eaters son..." Albus said. It sounded like there was more to that answer.

"Malfoy? Who's he?" Edward asked in concentration. He listen to Albus's thoughts for a few minutes than said, "Oh, yes you don't want to hurt him. That's a difficult situation."

"What's going on?" I demanded.

"Sorry." Edward threw me an apologetic look."May I?" he asked Albus.

"You may." Albus said wearily.

"There's a student here, Draco Malfoy, he's one of Voldemort's followers. He was given the task of killing Albus. He's been attempting all year. But Albus knows. Draco told Voldemort about us...Albus doesn't want to get Draco in trouble you see," Edward said hastily after I gave him a frightened look, "If Voldemort knew that Albus knew about the plan, Draco would be killed. He's young, he's being forced into it, and doesn't know what he's doing."

"Okay, so Draco is trying to kill Albus, but Albus can't stop him because Draco would be killed? That's seriously messed up..."

"Draco is lost and confused. His parents lives are at stake if he failes. Please, do not tell anyone about this. Many lives are at risk." Albus pleaded.

"We promise, we won't tell anyone." I reassured him. I smiled at me slightly, his eyes twinkling.

I lifted my shield so my thoughts could reach Edward. So, what do we do? What will Voldemort do?

"Albus thinks that he will take extra precautions, be careful, we have to wait and see his reaction."

"So what now Albus?" I asked.

"We wait, and watch Voldemort very closely. If you wouldn't mind, if I find another Horcrux, would you come with me?"

"Yes, anyway we can help." I assured him.

"It will be very dangerous." Albus warned.

"We can deal with it." Edward said, grabbing hold of my hand."

Albus evaluated us, "very well, you can go now if you'd like."

"Okay..." I stood up. Our meetings with Albus were very short. And I always felt excluded. Edward and his mind reading...

"Edward, Bella?" We turned around at the doorway, "could you meet me here tomorrow at seven o'clock? I would like to show you, along with Harry my findings of the Horcrux's."

"We'll be here." I said, nodding.

"Good day then, excuse me for my abruptness, but I have to go abroad..."

"That's fine." I smiled at him. We walked out and stopped in the hallway to think.

"Well, what does he want to show us tomorrow?" I asked.

"Some sort of memories of Voldemort's past... He's been showing them to Harry all year."

"Why?"

"Harry still doesn't know about the Horcrux's. Albus is almost positive that Voldemort does have Horcrux's, but he wants Harry to get a memory from Slughorn to prove it. Harry's working on it now..."

"What? The potions teacher?"

"Yes. Then we'll know for sure that Voldemort split his soul seven times..."

"Okay, and then we'll help him destroy them, and we have to do it before we go against the real Voldemort?" Edward nodded, deep in thought.

"In the mean time, do you want to go outside?" I agreed so we ran outside. It was sunny and the snow was melting slightly. We saw some students in the distance so we ran to check it out. It seemed the students were waiting outside a greenhouse. I recognized the scent of Hermione, Harry, and Ron. They piled inside and we followed after them. A teacher that was extremely covered in dirt with patched up clothes greeted us cheerfully.

"Hello! Come to observe? Go ahead and work with someone!" We said our thank you's and went to stand by Hermione, Harry, and Ron.

"Oh! Hello Bella!" Hermione greeted us.

"Hello Hermione, what are you doing?"

"We're trying to get these pods out of these plants! But," she glanced at Ron who had scratches covering his face, "it's not going to well."

" How do you do it?" I asked.

"You stick your hand in there and take out the pod, it's circular..." I watched as Ron tried to pry the plant open but the plant snapped at him. It didn't look fun.

"Can I try?" I asked walking towards the plant.

"Yes." She said. I walked over and easily pried the plant open and grabbed the pod before the plant could fight back.

"Thanks" She said, surprised.

"No problem."

"So how old are you two really?" Ron interrupted harshly.

"Ron." Hermione hissed. I giggled, it seemed like Hermione was constantly trying to keep Ron in line.

"Well I'm 100." Edward said amused, "but Bella's only 23, she was changed when she was 18." Ron's mouth fell open at Edward's age. I started laughing. Ron cracked me up.

"That's nothing, my father in law is 367 years old." I said, watching Ron. His eyes popped. It started me laughing again. Hermione looked slightly surprised. The rest of the class we were distracted, getting the pods out of the plants. We would let the others try, but it would take them several exhausting minutes to get a pod. It was pretty fun, and then we would pop the pods and put the contents into a bowl. When we walked out of the green house two hours later a student walked up to us tentatively and gave us an old fashioned scroll. Then she hurried away, not saying a word. I looked at the scroll, what an old fashioned way of delivering messages.

I unwrapped it and read a message from Professor Slughorn,

Dear Edward and Bella,

I would be delighted if you would join me at a Christmas party I am hosting in my office. It should be a pleasant experience for you. It is on December the 24th.

Yours truly,

Professor H.E.F. Slughorn

"Should we go?" I asked Edward.

"I think we should, it might be interesting."

"Yes, we should go." I agreed. It would be interesting indeed. I couldn't believe we were surrounded by wizards.

"Edward, I'm going hunting, I want to be careful.."

"Of course." Edward said worried. "Lets go." We went hunting, it took a while, when Edward was finished he went off to call Carlisle. When I was done I met him outside the forest.

"What did Carlisle say?" I asked.

"He's coming, he wants to see for himself. Esme, Alice, Jasper, Jacob, and Nessie are coming too. They're all fascinated. But Carlisle's concerned about the Voturi finding out...But they're coming."

I sighed in contentment. It would be nice to see my family.
