Chapter 52- From the shadows
Draco was carrying Harry into the castle when he was hit from behind.
"Stupefy."
Draco crumpled to the floor…
XoooooX
Harry woke up blindfolded and restrained…
Someone larger and stronger than he was, was half pulling, half carrying him
"Well, well you survived. I am surprised. How did a little thing like you escape one of the most powerful wizards in history?"
Harry thrashed.
"Now, now, my dear boy calm down."
"Who are you and what do you want?"
"What happened Harry?" the voice asked.
"Cup was a Portkey," Harry said as he was dragged through what sounded like the entrance hall. "Took me and Cedric to a graveyard… and the Dark Lord was there…"
Up the marble stairs…
"Voldemort was there? What happened then?"
Along the corridor…
"Made a potion… got his body back…"
"Voldemort got his body back? He's returned?"
"Yes. Then the Death Eaters came… and then we dueled…"
"You dueled with Voldemort?"
"Got away… my wand… did something funny…" Harry was too tired and didn't want to give this person too much information.
"In here Harry… in here, and sit down… You'll be all right now… drink this…"
Harry heard a key scrape in a lock and felt a cup being pushed into his hands.
"Drink it… you'll feel better… come on, now. Harry, I need to know exactly what happened…"
His new kidnapper helped tip the stuff down Harry's throat; he coughed, a peppery taste burning his throat.
"Voldemort's back, Harry? You're sure he's back? How did he do it?"
"He took stuff from his father's grave, from Nott, and me," said Harry.
"What did the Voldemort take from you?"
"What does it matter? I want Draco. I told papa and I told Minister Bones, that's what matters. I want to go to bed." Harry mumbled.
"My dear boy, you shouldn't talk to an adult like this."
Harry yawned, "You think this is bad? You should have heard how I spoke to the Dark Lord."
"Why do you call him Dark Lord? Why not He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named or Lord Voldemort?"
Harry shrugged, "Because that's what Papa, Draco and Mr. Lucius call him? What does it matter?"
"You sound like a supporter."
"Ha! I'm on my own side." Harry yawned, "Now are you going to let me go? Or do I have to retrieve my wand myself?"
"You can't retrieve a wand without another one."
XoooooX
Severus found Draco incapacitated on the stone floor inside the castle.
Remus whipped out his wand, "Enervate."
Draco blinked, wakening slowly, "Adder?"
"What happened?" Severus asked his grandson.
"I must have gotten hit from behind with something." Draco said with a soft moan. "Benia? Creon?"
There was a crackle of flames.
"Yes dragon?"
"Harry's missing."
Benia turned to Creon, "Is he in trouble?"
The Nemean lion shook his flamed mane.
"We don't know. He isn't really upset. He is awake though." Benia told them.
"Do we know who he's with?" Remus asked.
Creon growled.
"Someone whose smell is off." Benia said.
"Could that person have attacked Blaise with the Nightmare curse?" Draco had to know.
"I don't know. I didn't have a chance to smell the Veela after he was cursed." Benia shrugged her scarlet wings.
Draco crouched, looking into the lion's eyes, "Can you follow your master's scent?"
Creon sniffed and then walked off up the marble staircase.
"I'll take that as a yes."
XoooooX
"He forgave them, then?" the voice asked. "The Death Eaters who went free? The ones who escaped Azkaban?"
"What?"
"I asked you whether he forgave the scum who never even went to look for him. Those treacherous cowards who wouldn't even brave Azkaban for his, the faithless, worthless bits of filth who were brave enough to cavort in masks at the Quidditch World Cup, but fled at the sight of the Dark Mark when it was fired into the sky."
"Yeah after torturing them a little. Why do you care? Are you one of his little pets?"
"Not even. I wouldn't join him. I enjoy watching him build his little empire. It's my way to strike when the time is right and crush them. I have my ways of punishing them after I appear to have saved everyone from a terrible threat."
"You're nothing but an opportunist. You play god. That's worse then being a power obsessed worthless excuse for a Slytherin." Harry glared. "What the heck did you kidnap me for?"
"Why didn't Voldemort kill you? He's a very talented wizard. He terrorized Great Britain for years."
"Look who beat him the first time? That's nothing to brag about. I've had enough. I'm leaving." He nonverbally summoned his wand and it jumped into his hand, he ended the spell cast on him. He tugged off his blindfold, blinked, "Bagman? What in Merlin's name?"
"I'll tell you Harry, if there's one thing I hate more than any other, it's a person who don't keep their vows. Those who turned their backs on their master when he needed them most; I expected him to punish them. I expected him to torture them. Tell me he hurt them, Harry…" Bagman's face was suddenly lit with an insane smile. "Tell me how many abandoned him."
"What do you care? You're not a Death Eater. He's not coming for your head."
"I am on his list of Undesirables." Bagman sneered, "It hasn't been easy, Harry, trying to guide you through these tasks without arousing suspicion."
"You did raise suspicion. You didn't try to help any other Champions." Harry said pointing his wand at the man.
You had an easier time of it than you should have in that maze tonight, of course," Bagman sneered. "I was patrolling around it, able to see through the outer hedges, able to curse many obstacles out of your way. I made sure Fleur Delacour was attacked. I put the Imperius Curse on Krum, so that he would finish Diggory and leave your path to the cup clear. Voldemort didn't manage to kill you Potter, and he so wanted to," Bagman's voice was thick with desire…
"Stupefy!" There was a blinding flash of red light, and with a great splintering and crashing; the door of the empty classroom was blasted apart –
Bagman was thrown backward onto the office floor. Harry, still staring at the place where Bagman had been, he turned and saw Papa, dad and Draco.
Then, before Harry's very eyes, the face of the man on the floor began to change.
The man smirked, "Time's up." There was a crack of flames, a phoenix appeared.
"Fawkes?" Severus asked.
"You are smart, I underestimated you Severus. You can't win yet."
The phoenix and the obviously polyjuiced Dumbledore disappeared.
Benia flew around, "There is something wrong with that Phoenix."
Harry blinked, "He said something about punishing people…"
Draco pulled Harry into his arms, "come on. Let's go to bed…"
Severus and Remus went with them just to be sure they made it this time…

Exceeds Expectations? Acceptable? Outstanding? Troll?
What do you think? Voila the first duel between Harry and Voldemort! Did i do it justice? It's a bit similiar to the original rebirth but I enjoyed wrestling it to completion as well as changing it. I had to let him come back, so don't hate me for. I have plans...
Yay over a 100 reviews!
