Harry and his friends found themselves face to face with Draco Malfoy. Harry couldn't see how things could get any worse when into the room entered a large white snake followed by a man ware the strangest cloak he had ever seen, it was purple with a snake eye on the hood.

"Well, well, well look what we have here," the hooded man said not bothering to keep his amusement out of his voice.

"Who are you?" Lucas Malfoy asked.

"I am Yakushi Kabuto, a pleasure to meet you, Malfoy-San," he said removing his hood and he looked more like a snake than Voldemort did. Everyone in the room had their wands pointed at him but he just smiled.

"What are you doing here and how did you get in?" Lucas asked he was the pointing confiscated wands at Kabuto's face.

"Is it supposed to be hard to get in here?" Kabuto asked smiling.

"You little…" Lucas said.

"Put down your little wands or I will kill everyone in this room," Kabuto said smiling evilly.

"And how do you plan on doing that?" Bellatrix snapped at him.

"Like this," Kabuto placed his hand on the ground and two coffins rose up from the ground, "now unless you wish to see what surprise I have in these coffins, lower your wands."

"What kind of trick is this?" Bellatrix snapped. Harry didn't know what was in the coffins and he didn't want to his guess were Inferius or something like that.

"No you won't lower your wands very well," the tops of the coffins fell revealing two all too familiar faces, both Sirius and Dumbledore.

"What are you playing at?" Draco asked horrified.

"Can we have a conversation like civilized people," Kabuto asked grinning. Bellatrix was about to use a spell on Kabuto but her wand was sent flying from her hand she turned to see Sirius his wand pointing at her.

"Hello Bella, how long has it been," Sirius asked.

"Dumbledore take them down stairs no need to rush back up I am sure Sirius can hand these people," Kabuto said smiling. His eyes falling on Harry, Dumbledore stepped out of the coffin and walked towards Harry and his friends.

"Please get to your feet," Dumbledore said kindly they did as they were told. They walked down the stairs into the dark basement.

"Mr. Weasley do you still have my deluminator?" he asked smiling softly.

"Yes," Ron said wondering what was going on.

"Well could I ask you to give us a little light it is rather dark wouldn't you agree?" Dumbledore said chuckling. Ron did as he was told and they say that they weren't alone Luna Ollivander, Dean and a Goblin were all here too.

"Dumbledore," the three other wizards said in surprise.

"I believe that is my name," Dumbledore said laughing lightly at their reactions.

"But I though…I saw you die," Harry said.

"And you did, and joining by your appearances it must not have been that long ago maybe a year," Dumbledore said examining all his former students.

"So how are you here now? Are you an Inferi?" Ron asked.

"No Mr. Weasley I dear sat I am not, but as for how I am here I do not know, I have a theory but nothing more."

"So what is your theory?" Harry asked.

"I believe it is an art of the darkest Nature. I believe that man Kabuto, I believe his name is… has the power to recall the dead back to this plan," Dumbledore explained.

"But to bring the dead back is impossible," Hermione said.

"I thought so too but it seems he can do it and the worst part is I am under his control I cannot act without his permission, to an extent."

"What do you mean by that, I could tell you what ever I pleased, for example if knew how to break the hold he has on me I could tell you, but I cannot use my abilities to get you out of here," Dumbledore said.

"So this guy Kabuto can bring anyone back from the dead?"

"That I don't know there might be a restriction on a few things like how recently they died, he might not be able to bring back those who have for long periods of time, and then I don't know what is necessary to bring back the dead," Dumbledore continue to explain.

"Do you know anyone who might know about this stuff?" Harry asked.

"Miss Namikaze might with her connections in foreign politics," Dumbledore said.

"We can't ask her," Harry said sadly.

"And why is that?" Dumbledore asked.

"She died the same night you did, Snape killed her," Harry said resentment in his voice.

"Did he now?" Dumbledore said before falling silent, "Well I am sure you will be getting out of here any moment. I have feeling that Kabuto doesn't intend your any of you to die yet."

"Why would you say that?" Ron asked.

"Because I he doesn't trick me as a man who waste a move, I think this is evident by who he chose to bring back."

"What do you mean?" Hermione asked looking confused.

"Look who he brought back, I don't think it was for their benefit," he said pointing upstairs, "he could have brought anyone back and it would have had the same effect as he was going for, but he brought back people close to you Harry, he came here when you arrived here. I think there is something he wants you to do, it could be the same thing you have been doing or it could be something else," Dumbledore said. Luna Dean and Ollivander looked confused wondering what Harry had been doing.

"Professor there was someone following us they always seemed to know where we were and…they were attacked by a snake …they completely healed from the attack in about an hour…do you think it was him?"

"It could be but I don't think so, do you remember the night at the ministry I believe that would be the one following you and I believe they are the reason Arthur Weasley recovered so quickly, but I do think they are connect somehow and then Miss Namikaze. I believe she is a part of this too, I think she might have been a handler of some sort."

"What do you mean?" Harry asked.

"I think she is damage control every time or mystery person showed up she would appear later, I would have believed them to be one in the same until you told me Namikaze died shortly after myself," Dumbledore said.

"But I think it is time that I go, it was good to see you all again despite the circumstances," Dumbledore said walking back up the stairs, "but I think if you were to get up stairs somehow to get your things, I have a feeling that Kabuto won't let them kill you yet any way," he said before he was gone.

"So what do we do?" Ron asked.

"Well there is no question we need to get our wands back," Harry said then there was a load crack and Dobby was standing there. "Dobby what are you doing here?"

"Dobby came to save Harry Potter and his friends," Dobby said. They set up a plan to get out and get there things back. The first few steps went off without a hitch. Harry Ron and Hermione made their way up the stairs. The only ones facing the stairs was Kabuto Sirius and Dumbledore who had their wands pointed at the Death Eaters. Harry nodded and they all charged Harry tackled Draco causing him to loss the wands in his hand Hermione tackled Bellatrix and Ron tackled Lucas. Without thinking he turned on Narcissa his wand pointed at her and blasted her wand out of her hand.

The three got up and backed away from everyone else in the room, "I am very impressed, you three are either really brave or really stupid," Kabuto said smiling. Dobby reappeared but the second he did the white snake attacked him.

"Dobby!" Harry shouted.

"Unlike other snakes this one has a poison that has no cure and the effect are very nasty it slowly kills its victims very painfully, usually I would lie and saw there is a antidote to get information but…" a twisted smile crossed his face, "I don't what information."

"Then what do you want?"

"Come here my little vixen show yourself," Kabuto called out. Then a blond girl with a toad mask appeared before ready to attack.

"I can have that thing getting them out of here, leaving you here with me. No, that won't do at all," Kabuto said still smiling. "You know me too well to think I could allow that, I can have you getting rid of my friends yet anyway. So if you want to get them out of here you will have to do it yourself."

"Let me get Dobby and I will leave without a fight," she said no emotion in her voice.

"Good girl," Kabuto said.

"Next time I will kill you," she said in the same dead tone.

"Next time I have something I think you will like," Kabuto said as Naruko picked Dobby up, "don't forget this," Kabuto said tossing the sword to her she caught. For the first time Bellatrix got a look at the sword.

"Were did you get that did you get that out my volte! You, thieving little brats!" She shouted.

"Dobby I am going to give you some of my power, can you take us to the place you took the others?" she asked softly and he nodded, "grab on."

"Harry, take care of yourself, Ron Hermione you do the same, and whoever you are thank you…for everything," Sirius said smiling weakly. Then they all were gone and now they were at Shell Cottage. Naruko sat there trying to heal. Dobby even after the others had gone in she sat there trying to heal him.

In the morning they looked out the window, her back was to them her mask lay beside her and she was holding Dobby close. They could see a little of his face, it looked as if he was sleeping, but Harry knew that wasn't the case.
