Harry đã không có một ngày tốt lành. Ông đã đánh thức để đau đầu chia tách, nhờ một số tử thần thực tử người đã chuyển giao một số tin tức đáng tiếc cho cha ông. Sau đó ông đã dành hầu hết buổi sáng tìm kiếm Bella chỉ để được thông báo rằng cô đã đi trên một cuộc không kích."Điển hình" ông theo hơi thở của mình.Nó đã nhận được lạnh hơn bây giờ như nó đã tiếp cận giữa tháng tám. Harry kéo trên tay áo của áo của mình để trang trải bàn tay của mình khi ông đặt ra theo hướng giữa các căn cứ. Mặt nạ bạc của mình đang ngồi ở bên trong túi áo của mình. Hầu hết những ăn cái chết đã tấn công này, mà có lẽ được lệnh của cha mình, sau khi nghe bất cứ điều gì những tin tức đáng lo ngại là đó đã đánh thức Harry.Harry đi đều đặn trên đối với Sân vườn đào tạo của mình. Ông đã cảm thấy khá tích cực sau khi buổi sáng tệ hại mà ông đã có và muốn vent một số sự tức giận này đi bởi đào tạo. Tuy nhiên ông đã không thậm chí đạt các căn cứ đào tạo khi một âm thanh cảnh báo ông. Nó là một âm thanh sự trơn. Các lá trên mặt đất hơi crunching như thể ai đó hoặc thay vì một cái gì đó trượt qua chúng. Harry biết bản năng này là cái gì. Ông quay lại từ từ để xem một con rắn khổng lồ sự trơn đối với anh ta."Nagini" ông hissed trong Parseltongue."Trẻ Master." cô hissed trở lại vào anh ta.Harry walked over to the huge snake and gently stroked her head. He was really fond of her. Nearly as much as Lord Voldemort himself. He had promised Harry that when he turned seventeen he would get Harry a similar snake. 'Just one more year to go' thought Harry as he continued to stroke Nagini. He had just turned sixteen a fortnight ago, but as usual it was not celebrated. The only birthday of Harry's that would be celebrated would be when he came of age, seventeen.Harry looked at the giant head of the reptile and asked again in Paseltongue."What are you doing here? You usually don't go anywhere until nightfall.""I got bored so I was going to get myself a small…snack!" she hissed at him.Harry grimaced slightly, he knew that a small snack for Nagini was usually a very big thing by normal standards. Nagini was responsible for the disappearances of most farm animals such as horses, cows, and a few sheep that were near by. She had even got herself a few humans many times, but Harry chose not to think about that right now.Before he could say anything more to Nagini he felt a searing pain in his scar. His hand found its way to his forehead instinctively and Harry was momentarily blinded by the white hot pain that had erupted in his head. He blinked away the spots he was seeing and turned in the direction of the manor."Wonder what's wrong now?" he muttered to himself.He turned to Nagini and hissed his goodbyes and set off towards the castle. The pain had gone as fast as it had come. There was the dull throbbing that Harry had gotten used to, since Lord Voldemort was very rarely in a completely happy mood. He didn't stop once, until he approached the doors leading to his father's room. He knocked once and entered the room quietly.Lord Voldemort looked up at the person who had entered his private chambers. He saw Harry and motioned for him to come closer. Voldemort stepped away from the window and turned to look at him."Harry, there's been a situation, I have just received a distress signal. It seems the raid this morning hasn't gone very well."Harry nodded once without taking his emerald green eyes away from his father's ruby red ones."Who was the signal from Father?" he asked."Bella" Voldemort almost whispered the word.Harry felt like the air around him had vanished. He couldn't breathe. He looked at his father awaiting orders to go and help her, but they never came.Lord Voldemort only looked at Harry and turned away, obviously fighting the anger building inside him, for Harry's sake."Father, what are your orders?" Harry pushed."Nothing, I don't want you to do anything."Harry could only stare at his father's turned back."But father, surely we have to do something…""Harry, as much as I want my inner circle back, especially Bella, I am not going to risk you in a rescue mission." Voldemort said, still with his back towards Harry.Harry felt his own anger building."Father, we can't lose the inner circle either, it will take too long to build up again, and Bella…we can't lose her either."Harry said the last part quietly. The mere thought of losing Bella was too much for him to even fathom. Voldemort turned around to face Harry at this. He also looked as if he was torn between trying to save his follower Bella or keeping his son out of harms way. He personally didn't care about Bella or any other Death Eater in particular, but Harry was right. If he lost his inner circle now it would cause all sorts of problems, not to mention the delay in winning the war. He sighed deeply and locked his eyes with Harry's sending him the visual location of the raid.Harry took in the detail and turned around sharply, and almost ran to the door."Harry!" Lord Voldemort called out after him.Harry stopped at the door and spun around."Just take her and come back immediately, Understand!""Yes Father." was Harry's reply and then he quickly made his way to the apparation point just outside the main door.xxxHarry apparated in front of a crumbling building. He quickly scanned the surrounding area. There was evidence of battle everywhere. He could make out the blood just at the entrance. He made his way into the abandoned building, which may have been a warehouse at some point, but now was nothing more than a crumbling wreck.With his mask firmly in place Harry entered the building. He walked in cautiously, even though it seemed that the place was empty. He could hear voices shouting in the distance, maybe on the upper floor of the destroyed building. He kept to the shadows and quietly made his way to the stairs. Once he reached the top he saw that the battle indeed was still going on. There were bodies lying, scattered everywhere. Most of them were masked Death Eaters. Harry cursed under his breath. He quickly crossed the room and hid near the collapsed wall. His emerald eyes were searching the floor for the form of Bella. He noticed that he could hear curses being uttered and the flashes as the spells were being fired but he couldn't actually see anyone around.
'They must be behind the ruins' Harry thought as he surveyed the mountains of rumble and rocks lying everywhere. Harry threw caution to the wind and moved away from his hiding area. He saw Bella instantly. She was lying in the corner of the building. Her robes were ripped and blood streaked her usually pretty face. Harry felt the anger inside him bubble. He was shaking from suppressed rage. He got up quietly and made his way to the fallen body.
He reached her without anyone realising. He knelt down beside her and gently placed a finger on her neck. 'Please don't be dead!' he whispered to himself. He felt the pulse and breathed out a huge sigh of relief.
"Bella" he whispered as he tried to wake her up. Bella opened her eyes and to Harry's surprise gave him a wide grin.
"Hey gorgeous!"
Harry whipped away from the body. The face was Bella's but the voice was that of a man. A voice Harry had heard many times. The 'fake' Bella sat up and smiled at the look of shock on Harry's face. Harry stood up, but before he could raise his wand he noticed that all the voices that had been shouting curses had now stopped and he was completely surrounded by the previously fallen bodies.

Lord Voldemort sat on his throne. He had Nagini next to him but he was ignoring her at the moment. He sat massaging his temples, eyes closed, repeating a silent mantra to calm himself down. Trying to concentrate all the anger he was feeling away from him. His concentration was broken by the sound of his door being knocked on and the sound of many voices.
With a sweep of his hand he opened his doors and sat shocked as the entire inner circle came through. They were all wearing triumphant looks and were smiling at their Dark Lord. None of them looked even remotely hurt. As they all knelt before him his gaze fell on the Death Eater nearest to him.
His only female Death Eater smiled at him as she stood up to greet him.
"Master, the raid was a complete success. We now have the…"she broke off as she noticed her master looking at her with disbelief.
"My Lord!" she gasped as Voldemort had stood up and appeared in front of her in a flash. He stood looming over her.
Voldemort stared into Bella's eyes and realised with a sick jolt that he had been fooled. Bella had not sent out the distress signal. There had been no complications. He had sent Harry into a trap!
"No…no! Harry!" whispered Voldemort. He took a step back and then without warning he lunged forward and grabbed Bella around the arms and shook her like a rag doll
"Get him back! Get Harry back now!" he snarled at her.
Bella could only nod her head as terror gripped at her. She saw the images flash before her as Lord Voldemort entered her mind and showed her how Harry had left to allegedly 'save her'.
She turned and wordlessly ordered the rest of the inner circle to follow her. She and Lucius led the way out of the chamber.
Lord Voldemort stood and watched, all the while channelling his anger away from him. If Harry ever needed total concentration it was now.

Harry looked around him and saw at least ten Aurors surrounding him, their wands pointing directly at him. Most of them had removed the Death Eater masks and black robes to reveal their Auror robes as Harry realised that he had been fooled by the bodies on the ground. The 'fake' Bella laughed a bark like laugh. Harry felt his insides burn with anger. Before his very eyes the face and body of Bella changed slowly into the tall dark Sirius Black.
Harry could only glare at him as the famous Auror shook his dark locks out of his eyes and gave Harry another wide grin.
"Well Prince, nice
