Chapter 16
"How are we going to bring Dumbledore down?" asked Fred, the next morning, even though Harry didn't need to sleep Fred and the others had to sleep. So Harry had been thinking about the situation much longer than the others. Although he knew the others hadn't slept an awful lot heard them tossing and turning all the time.
"We are going to do it slowly but painfully" hissed Harry through clenched teeth. After everything that bastard had done to him, to his friends and what he forced Ginny to go through and for everyone else out there that had been betrayed by the old man.
"How?" asked Fred, "How is that possible he obviously knows what he's doing and isn't leaving a trail or he would have been found out!"
"That may be true but he didn't cover his tracks with me, and now his trails are already becoming breaded" said Harry.
The others all looked confused at the very Muggle statement even Severus didn't understand what Harry meant but got the gist of it.
"He's leaving trails, because I know what I am looking for" said Harry he didn't know how but he had forgotten they were raised in the Wizarding world; they won't know about the story the boy, girl and bread crumbs.
"I suppose, but who would ever believe us?" asked George sadly; he knew Dumbledore had everyone too tightly around his little finger.
"They will by the time we are finished" said Harry adamantly his face showing just how he believed that statement.
"Ok so where are we starting?" asked Neville. He was beyond angry about the fact that the old man had been using him for his magic - and making him believe he was no better than a squib. He was still extremely upset at Luna for not telling him about Dumbledore. Deep inside he knew that he would never have believed her.
"I suggest we start by finding people he has been manipulating holding things on, people he has seen imprisoned or sent to St. Mungos or something I think they will have things on Dumbledore" said Poppy.
"Excuse me?" asked Severus taken aback...Prison? St. Mungos?
"He's had people imprisoned I over heard a conversation between the Minister and Dumbledore, promises of money, power and promise of making sure they are re-elected as Minister goes straight to their head and they immediately cave in to Dumbledore and have people imprisoned" said Poppy looking away ashamed she had kept this to herself for such a long time she had actually managed to convince herself that she was imagining it - or that the person must have done something really bad because Dumbledore was all good and light.
"We need an inside job then" sighed Severus.
"Not really can't you send some people?" asked Harry curiously.
"No, vampires cannot enter the Ministry Of Magic unless they are escorted or under arrest," admitted Severus the look of anger on his face showed just how peeved he was with that rule.
"I see" said Harry somewhat surprised, there was a lot he still did not know, that was even him going in out of the question.
"We can do some snooping" smirked Fred.
"No one would ever accuse us of doing anything illegal" said George making him look all angel like.
"If you get caught?" asked Damien one of the vampires.
"We will...with our WWW products they will just assume we were going to prank someone, we are known everywhere for our pranks" smirked George, they looked a formidable pair smirking like that, hair tied back and their eyes cold and glittering revenge waiting.
"Plus we can also say we were going to see our father" said Fred with a grimace.
"You know make up with the family and all that" said George.
Harry grinned some things never changed; those two were still finishing each others sentences. He was sure they had some sort of telepathic link to each other, Harry sat thinking on it for a few minutes wondering if it could work - and if it was worth it.
"We will make you a Portkey that will even rip through the wards surrounding the Ministry, it would tear them to shreds and leave it defenceless" said Severus "So do NOT use it unless it's an absolute must"
"Won't they track them here?" asked an alarmed Damien.
"No, they will be Portkey'd elsewhere and then apparate to a few different locations then come here" said Severus "That way the trail will be cold and they wont be able to track them" said Severus.
"Then let's do it, you need all papers regarding cases where Dumbledore and the Minister had someone imprisoned in Azkaban without the support of the Wizengamont we have no idea where they are so you need to be quick and do it properly we cannot miss anything" said Harry seriously.
"We know" said Fred just as seriously back.
Harry felt sorry for the twins, they had changed, they were no longer the carefree boys they had once been. He missed those twins, the ones who loved a laugh and made you laugh he would always miss them and knew they weren't coming back. Life had changed them, war had as well as their family. He would love to get to know these twins he really wanted to know what had happened to them to make them like that.
"What do we do?" asked Neville feeling left out, feeling useless and upset.
"You recover, get stronger and used to your magic then we shall see" said Harry, Severus nodded curtly beside him.
"You need to get stronger Nev, you are no use to anyone weak" said Luna squeezing his hand in understanding.
"I guess" said Neville sadly.
"Don't worry no one does nothing around here" grinned Damien he could understand the young man's sadness. He too had once gone through the same thing, well apart from the whole stealing of the magic thing.
Neville grinned softly, maybe he would find his place here, he had thought he found it at Hogwarts but obviously not. Dumbledore had just wanted him around to feed him the potion; he couldn't wait to kill the bastard for what he did.
"Go with Fred and George Harry get them sorted" said Severus firmly.
Looking confused, Severus kissed Harry on the lips as if to say everything was alright. Smiling softly he left with Fred and George on cloud nine, Severus hadn't kissed him in public before. He hadn't been sure if he was just a fling to the vampire or not...now he knew better.

"What do you want me to do?" asked Luna as soon as Harry was out of the room.
"I want you to find Draco... I'm not aware of his last name, he is a friend of Harry's is he not?" asked Severus softly.
"Yeah, he stuck up for Harry and was banished from his family and name, he's got no last name he's basically a no one, he pops up now and again but he's always on the run" said Neville softly.
"Well you get in touch with him immediately and the vampires will take you to him, you will show him the memories from yesterday and you will bring him here" said Severus.
"He would never want Harry to see him as he is" said Luna sadly. "Never, he would rather let Harry think him dead."
"Then buy some clothes for him, clean him up and give him a room here there is enough space" said Severus.
"Ok," said Neville, already getting up on his feet abet a little wobbly, with Luna's help they got up the stairs and started writing the letter to Draco out. As they were doing that Fred and George's plan was put to the test.
Now all Severus and Harry could do now was wait and see what was going to happen.
Will They Find Draco Before It's Too Late? Will He Be Turned Also? Will They succeed in Finding the documents? Fred and George? or will they be found out? Will Severus and Harry rescue them if it comes to it? or will they be too late and the twins be given the kiss for betral? R&R plz xXx
