(A/N) thekecmaster: I don't own the Harry Potter Series. I am hoping to finish this story in a similar vein as Flametongue, but let's see how that goes.

Chapter 05 – Enter The Plan

Ginny led the group of 6 (Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Neville, Luna, and Sloth) all over the castle, finally stopping in front of Moaning Myrtle's Bathroom. They did not find any hint of Pride, nor any of the other Potter sins. She suddenly asked, "How are we supposed to capture all 7 Potters in the same room?"

Luna replied, "Isn't there a map of some sort, that allows one to see everyone in the castle?"

Hermione replied, "Yes! The Marauder's Map! But who has it?"

"Didn't Harry have it when he found the orb?" inquired Ron.

"Then someone must have it now," piped Neville.

Dobby looked at The Marauder's Map, and noticed that the seven split Potters all appeared on the map. As soon as he noticed that, an idea struck him. He scanned the map and noticed Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Neville, Luna, and Sloth all stop in front of Moaning Myrtle's Bathroom. Taking the map, he disappeared from the kitchen and reappeared right in front of them.

"Hi there," squeaked Dobby.

"Dobby, do you know where the Marauder's Map is?" asked Luna

"I do, Miss Luna, but I don't know how to operate it."

"It's quite simple, Dobby. If I tell you how to operate it, would you like to help us bring back Harry?"

At this point, Ron and Hermione exchanged glances in total shock, Ginny and Neville both simultaneously said "Huh?", and Sloth yawned. Dobby looked over at Luna's pleading eyes, and nodded.

"Good. To turn off the map, just say 'Mischief Managed.' To turn it on, say 'I solemnly swear that I'm up to no good.'"

Hermione recovered from her shock sufficiently to ask, "How do you know how to operate the map?"

Luna replied, "It's quite simple. I saw Harry late one night turn on the map, and heard the words he spoke. He caught up with me and explained the history behind the map over hot chocolate. It was quite fascinating really, his descriptions and motions, how his arms…"

Luna's eyes began to glaze over, and she was about to describe Harry in more detail than the others needed to know, when Ginny broke Luna's reverie, and asked, "How do we get them all together in the same place?"

"I could write some letters to them," suggested Neville, who did not want to actively search some of the Potter sins out.

"What if I transfigured some objects into parchment messages?", asked Ginny.

Luna asked Sloth if he had any ideas to get his 6 sinful alter-egos in the same room with him.

Sloth sighed, this could take many sentences. "Get each sin into the room a minute within each other. Have Envy get there first, so that he will be pacified and not complain so much about us. Get the Creevey boys into McGonagall's room, and have Pride tell them stories. Have some house elves bring unlimited food into the room to get Gluttony. See if you can enlist Fleur or Cho or Tonks to get Lust in there. Bring lots of leprechaun gold to draw Greed. Finally, draw Wrath in by putting a statue of Voldemort.

Ron exclaimed, "Wait! That's only 6 sins! What about you?"

Luna calmly answered, "I can always lead Sloth by the hand in. He doesn't mind."

Sloth just shrugged; he supposed it was less work to just shrug and agree than say something and possibly disagree.

"How are you not excited that Luna's holding your hand?"

Hermione, quick on the lightning response, buzzed, "Weren't you listening earlier? Sloth doesn't feel anything. Luna, why don't you kiss him, and we'll demonstrate."

Luna wasn't going to complain – she kissed him right on the lips before anyone could say anything. Hermione then asked Sloth if he felt anything. He said, "No."

Hermione then said, "Now observe." She kissed Ron on the lips, and Ron and Hermione stayed close kissing for a minute. Ginny was wide-eyed at the display, but Neville put a hand on her hand to calm her down. Then, Ginny, Neville, and Luna looked at each other and laughed, which finally broke apart the two.

"Did you feel that Ron?" asked Neville.

"Hermione is awesome!"

"Thank you Ron, so are you."

"Hermione, you are…"

"Okay Ron, save the lovey dovey stuff for another time. I still want Harry back."

Luna was pretty sad and upset at this point; she wanted the true Harry Potter to say the words she wanted to hear. Sloth realized that this was not a time to be lazy, nor did he want to see Luna cry. "Don't worry Luna. You are immune to each of his sins. Not even Wrath will hurt you, so you must hold something special in his heart."

Hermione recovered from shock at Sloth speaking without prompting to chip in, "See Luna. Even Sloth is not totally immune to you."

Normally, even in a school this large, one would normally find it hard to exit the school. However, with 6 of the 7 Harry Potter sins running amok and everyone else preoccupied with capturing or fleeing the deadly sins, no one noticed Malfoy, Crabbe, and Goyle running out the front door of the school. As they ran, they caught enough snippets of the action around them. They ran to the gates and disapparated to Voldemort's new headquarters at Malfoy Manor.

Voldemort, who was trying to think of a plan to lure Harry away, casually flicked 3 Crucio curses at the young Slytherin trio. "What's so important that you have to disturb my thinking!"

"Harry Potter has been divided into seven different persons, my Lord."

Voldemort exclaimed, "That's the dumbest thing I have ever heard! Crucio!"

Snape strode into the room, "The Malfoy kid is not lying – Potter is in 7 forms, my Lord. The entire castle is in chaos!"

"Hmmm." Voldemort lifted the three pain curses and then called for Lucius, Bellatrix, Rodolphus, Dolohov, MacNair, Crabbe Sr., and Goyle Sr.

"Listen up minions! Hogwarts Castle is in chaos. We are going in, and taking the 7 Harry Potters with us. Kill off anyone in the way, but leave the Potters for me. I will not have 7 archnemeses unite against me. Let's go!"
