Nothing Breaks Like the Heart (Harry Potter Fanfic)

37

Yaxley stormed towards the courtroom, remembering being summoned by someone. He didn't know who sent the message but he was ordered to meet up in the courtroom to discuss something. He had entered inside where he found serval other Death Eaters such as Dolohov, The Carrows Siblings, Crabbe and Goyle, standing about like they were awaiting for the host. Yaxley made his way to the small group, his eyes narrowed suspiciously at each and every one of them. 

"Who called this meeting?" Yaxley asked, a bit annoyed given that it was early in the morning. Plus he knew the message hadn't been  from Lord Voldemort, himself. The Carrows shrugged their shoulders as Dolohov shook his head that they didn't know who it was. Before Yaxley could ask either Crabbe or Goyle, a bright light flickered over them. Yaxley held his hand over his eyes, shadowing them so they didn't get blinded by the light. Once his eyes adjusted, he lowered his head to find a table full of broken objects. A locket, a cup, a diary, a ring, and a diadem. Yaxley narrowed his eyes as he felt like he knew them in a way. He reached his hand out to touch one when he was caught off by a light 'hem hem'. 

Yaxley shot his head up to see the pulpit where the judge is supposed to sit. He knew someone was sitting there but the darkness cloaked it like the person didn't want to be seen despite they were the one's who asked them to come there. 

"Who are you? What's the meaning of this?" Yaxley asked, keeping his eyes fixed on the pulpit. He couldn't see it but he could feel the person shift a little it the seat. 

"The meaning of this meeting is our Dark Lord has decided to become soft when we are at the peak of winning this war. And why? Because a Mudblood got it into his head that she is his daughter. And not just any Mudblood you see! It was that Granger girl." a woman spoke to them, "Despite my feelings that Mudblood had the smarts to pull of cursing our Lord, it is the only explanation to this entire thing." 

"Wait, you think Granger somehow got close enough to put the Dark Lord under a spell?" Dolohov asked, a bit disbelief. Yaxley silently agreed with him. There were too many plot holes in this situation. If Hermione did get close enough to Voldemort, then she would have had to cross numerous protection spells and get through without being seen which was near impossible. Even if they were capture they couldn't have done it because they would have had their wands stolen from them. Yaxley kept this thoughts to himself as he darted his eyes between the objects, which he now knew were the horcruxes of Voldemort, and to the mysterious woman.  

"Clearly, so we must act to protect our ways or else the Order will take us all down." The woman claimed. 

"And what you're trying to do is merely help our Lord from the Mudblood's control?" Goyle asked. 

"Exactly," the woman answered. 

"So the reason most of the horcruxes are destroy is just to help him right?" Yaxley found himself saying. There was a moment of silence as if the woman was thinking of what to reply with next. 

"It is to weaken him enough so that he isn't strong enough to kill us all. We'll probably had to fight him ourselves and we'll be needing all the protection we need as well." The woman answered in a stiff tone of voice that made Yaxley remember to watch what he says next time. He had doubts of what the woman was saying to them. 

"So what exactly do you want us to do?" Crabbe asked. 

"It's quite simply, we are going to take back the Dark Lord's wishes of making this world a pureblood world." The woman stated then shuffled in her seat till the sound of her footsteps echoed through the air and headed towards them. The light soon glowed around her as everyone's eyes widened in surprised. 

"Starting with removing the main cancer known as Hermione Granger," Umbridge claimed, the room echoing with her high-pitched laughter.
