Prologue: To Lose That What You Know
Harry's POV
He stared down at the hastily drawn map. "Are we sure of this?" He asked seeing the small grimace from the two across from him. "Harry, the Political climate has changed, with Voldemort's mounting plans for the conquering of the Ministry, Politics will no longer be an option for us, he failed once with the prophecy, now our best move is to at least slow him enough to destroy the prophecy before he can collect it." Hermione said quietly making him sigh and sit back in the chair behind him. "The last time was a bloody mess, Sirius was lost, Neville lost an arm, and I got a new scar to add to the many I already have. Is this really the best option for us?" He asked getting a small sigh.
"Potter, what connections you have made will prove useful, but all of them agree that he cannot know the prophecy, its the only objective he seeks so much, besides your death." Daphne explained making him pinch the bridge of his nose for a second. "This situation still sucks, we dont have many options and I'm not to keen on doing this again, the Unspeakables have raised more protections on that section of the Ministry, and I dont feel like tripping a bunch of protections that will ultimatly kill the ally's I need alive!" He said frustrated before sighing softly and relaxing in the chair.
"This situation wont get any better, and we cant do anything about it now, the best option is to simply move forwards, besides you arent alone in this." Hermione explained making him nod before tossing his head back. He stared at the ceiling for a moment trying to think it over. "It's unavoidable, that much I know well, but even so, this doesnt seem to look good for anyone, best possibility, we manage to do it quickly enough that the spies in place by old snakeface dont have a fast enough opportunity to notify him, worst, he comes in full power and we get completely anihilated." He said getting the two to nod slightly.
"Alright, best chance is tonight, what information we have on the situation inside the ministry will end tonight and we wont have another good information pull until Amelia informs us again, once she gets back in office." He said turning to the door. "Best come out now Neville, I'm going to need you to inform the others and have them ready up, we're going to leave in a few hours." He said getting the boy to cough and come walking in. "Sorry, mate, just didnt like being left out." Neville said making him nod and roll his eyes. "Come on, you know as well as I do, there is no way you could possibly go without knowing whats going on. Nosy git." He said mumbling the last part softly.
"Heard that." Neville said before turning to the door and exiting. "I wanted you to." He called before the door closed with a slam making him grin at the two girls. "Boys." Hermione said getting a small nod from Daphne. "Whatever, its best if we get most of the escape plans done, I dont want us caught off guard if we can help it." He said getting a small nod from the two. "Fawkes?" Hermione asked making him frown. "He would be the best solution if it was possible, but Dumbledore has to much of an eye on him, and at best we cant be sure he would come if called." he said getting a small nod.
"Portkey's are done, and even though everyone is missing the license we all have done the training for apparation." Daphne said making him nod. "Its the best we have right now, if it gets bad enough we have Dobby and Winky, they could both help us get out with their teleportation magic, but i'm hesitant to do it since they would be a fairly large target, and we are going for low visability, and therefore being less likely to be charged later." He said making them glance at each other. "Hermione, we have been over it, and while you agree and disagree on the merits of having a bonded house elf, with each other I dont feel like watching you two hash it out." he said dryly.
He grinned lightly as they both flushed red at the accusation. "Harry, we're good to go." Neville called from beyond the door, he watched the two close their mouths even though they had just prepared a solid rant for the ages. "Well, lets get this done and over with. After all, that bastard isnt getting any younger." He said stepping around the two and into the next room. He glanced over the small group and noticed the thin dragon hide robes they wore, the combined cost of it all was more than most of the teachers salary combined, but good defensive robes were worth the cost.
He cursed slightly as he ducked a curse. "Dammit I thought this place was supposed to be deserted!" He yelled as a spell crossed over his shoulder impacting against the robe of an unspeakable throwing him down the walkway. "It was, we must have tripped an alert ward!" Hermione called sending a familiar red hex towards another. "Listen it's clear we cant retrieve the prophecy, but the secondary option is still possible, we destroy it, set off a blasting curse at the supports for the shelving unit, let them all crash down like domino's." He said getting a small nod.
"Wasnt that what was tried last time?" Daphne asked pushing Susan away from a nearby incarcerous. "No, what happened last time was a singular incident, it didnt destroy the entire hall. This time, all of them will go down, and if not its best, the prophecy will end up lost in the pill created, the hours of cleanup will leave it gone for months letting us plan again." He said hearing the explosions from his side and winced lightly as the metal slightly screamed as it warped and fell knocking over the rows further down. It was a song of shattering glass that chased them out of the ever changing door into his most hated room.
The death room, the damned viel was wavering softly mocking him in response to his loss of his godfather. "Shit! Death Eaters." Neville called. "Dammit! I thought we had more time!" He called getting Neville to duck under the four green spells thrown through the open door. "Nope looks like they caught on well." Neville said making him twitch in annoyance. "We're assaulted on two sides, we have to hold out until we can find an advatage to take." He said moving deeper into the room and closer to the viel.
"Potter is here! Get him to our Lord!" A very familiar voice exclaimed the smooth tone making his eye twitch. "Fucking Malfoy." He cursed twisting to the right as a red spell flew by. He dived to the right as a hex exploded next to him. His eyes turned and landed on a nearby rune emplacement. He stared at it for a sort second before a banishment caught his eye. He glanced up seeing susan drop down on the land in front of him. He turned to glare before seeing the rune light up. "Shit get down!" he yelled seeing Neville dive after tossing of a stunner.
He felt a vindictive feeling of happiness well through him when it hit Bellatrix in the back making her drop the cruciatus on Hermione. He felt a pull from behind him and grabbed down on the ground before looking back to see both Susan and Daphne get dragged into the viel. He stared blankly for a moment before a mocking voice called over the winds. "Well, seems like you have once again killed two of your friends. Harry Potter." Voldemorts smooth voice called through the chamber. He glanced to the man seeing the small smile on the things face and back at the viel.
Already they were gone, and in their place nothing remained, the soft fluttering of the black and grey cloaking like substence being the only thing remaining. He felt anger flush through him. It took all but a second to have it all explode out and he felt the blackness eat at his vision once the energy expelled itself. He wasnt even sure what the hell happened, one second he was angry and his magic lashed out and now he was falling to the ground out cold. Of course He never would have guessed he'd be in a magical coma, let alone that it wouldnt be that which would have him say good bye to the world he knew.
A/N: Man you guys have to be pissed with me. Sorry I havent Updated Begin Again and Beyond The Gate in months now but life kind of killed the spark for those. This new Crossover actually managed to bring that back so you might not be waiting to long until the story gets an update. This is a little brain child that will be going on for a while, I plan to make this thing a massive evolving story. It will turn into a multi fic but I have ideas on how to do that in a stable form. I will later on after quite a few chapters outline the plan for you all and provide a poll for you all to choose of whichever choice seems best to add or however I plan to do it once I tell you all. Have to give you a little bit of something to look forwards too and wonder about.
