Daphne's condition was deterioting every day. She was under observation for two days, but then Estella confirmed that she had gone into coma. "Her body is fully healed, but her brain is not co-operating. You can say that her brain is still under the impression that her body is hurt. We have to wait till she herself awakes. If we used magic, it can be fatal." The attack had taken a toll on all of them. The Auror department was on high alert, after coming from hospital, Harry and Draco found out that it was indeed a planed attack. And the master mind behind this attack was Antonin Dolohov, as his magic traces were found on the location. The same day they got to know that Lucius Malfoy also had got a letter.
You will get what you deserve.
The letter was also sent to get checked out. All of them were restless. None of them had told Estella about the other letter. She could sense that something was bothering them all but didn't said anything about it. The following week, she got an unexpected patient. Gregory Goyle. Who had come with a severe burn injury. "I was trying to make the new potion, but it exploded, on my arm." He said shrugging. "Goyle you should be careful. You know that it is very dangerous job. Making new potions." Estella had told him. "Ya. I know. But it slipped from my mind. Well now I will take care." She shook her head and said, "No. It's second degree burns. You should be thankful that your arm is still intact. No further going into the inventory till this heals properly." He nodded, and asked. "Well by the way, where have you been, from last 2 years?." "I was for my Healer training. But now I am back." She smiled at that thought. "That's good. That's good." He said with an unfamiliar look. Noticing his unfamiliar voice, she shook her head, thinking he was just messing around. She smiled, giving pain potions, she dismissed him."We can't find any further information on the attack. How many Death Eaters were captured after the war?." Draco asked. "Well I found out that Carrow siblings were not captured." Said Ron, "We already knew that Yaxley was not captured, as he was in Hogsmeade, when we were attacked, 2 years ago." Hermione continued after Ron. "Then last weeks attack, proved that Antonin Dolohov is also not captured." Harry finally concluded. The office suddenly opened and in stepped Katie Bell, with a victory smile, placing the letters, more like slammed then on the table, and said, "I found out who send them. This letter, which was sent to Lucius Malfoy, was sent by Mulciber, and this letter which was sent 2 years ago was sent by Ginevra Weasley." "What!?." They all said in one voice. "Ginny? How is this possible. She was in mental ward, before this letter was sent to Estella." Exclaimed Hermione. "Well you told me to track the person who sent them. I did. And here is the result. What you do with this information is your headache now." Katie said with an eye roll. "Thankyou Katie. I appreciate your effort and time for this. You can go." Harry said in final tone. Katie exited the room. "Well it's fucked up. How is this possible?." Ron said with a red face. "We have to get the information, of who have visited Ginny from the moment she was admitted." Draco suggested. Harry nodded at that and said, "We can't bring Estella in this, last time Ginny and her were involved, Ginny almost killed her. We have to take someone else's help." After thinking how to get information, Harry and Draco looked at each other and said, "Cormac." "What about him?." Ron said in disgust. "He is Estella's partner. If we convinced him to help us, we can may be get that information." Harry said carefully. "But what if he did something idiotic." Ron asked. "We have to take the chance." Hermione said, in finality.
The next day, Draco and Harry fixed the meeting with Cormac McLaggen. They met at 'The Three Broomstick'. "So you want me to give you the information, on who has been visiting Ginevra Weasley.' said Cormac, rubbing his chin, 'Ok. But I want something in return." He concluded with a smirk. Draco was having a bad feeling about the way he was smirking. He narrowed his eyes on him and said, "What will that be?." "Estella." Cormac replied, and it took everything in Harry to restrain Draco, from launching onto Cormac. "Take that back. Right now." Harry demanded. "You want the information, fine. I want Estella. Deal?." Cormac said again, aggravating Draco even more. "She is my sister. Watch that mouth of yours McLaggen. Otherwise I'll rip you apart before Draco could even touch you." Harry said in low threatening voice, looking directly in his eyes. Cormac gulped, he knew messing with Harry Potter can be very dangerous. "We want that information, with none of this bullshit again. By tomorrow, owl us the information, otherwise it will be bad for your career." Both Harry and Draco left the pub, Draco seething at him. They reached back to their office. They entered, Draco slamming the door in the process and Harry with an eye roll closed the door calmly. Draco was in so much anger that he punched the wall to diffuse it. "What has gotten into him?." Ron asked, and Hermione nodded looking at Draco. "Cormac said that he will give us information only if he gets Estella in return." Hermione gasped, and Ron cussed. "I have to restrain Draco from killing him, and used my brother card there. By tomorrow we will get the information."
Goyle went to an old house, on the outskirts of muggle London. Just as he entered, he saw a person sitting at the armchair, but a cold voice asked from behind him. "Got something for us Goyle?." He nodded. "She is back, but doesn't look like she got the letter." The voice snorted, Goyle carried on, "I have cleared the records, no one will suspect that it was you." The person nodded in front of him, and the person behind him, said, "Very well, now go back to the hole you call home, and forget you ever did anything." Goyle nodded and left. "Well, the target is back. Now we have to plan how to lure the Golden trio with her." Said the man in shadow. "Do you got anything from our spy?." Said another figure in the room. "No, he still can't get what we asked him, I say he is a waste of time." The first person scoffed. "Leave him. Let's have some fun." Said the person in the room, they all made their way to the dungeon. A figure was slumped there, bounded with chains, and face bloody. "Will you tell us now, what we want?." The figure raised him head and shook, the person shrugged and casted Cruciatus. "Crucio!." The figure screamed, and the rest of the people laughed.
