The Dark Lord Is Not Dead: The After Effect Of Loyalty

Draco's Journal

Draco had told the Slytherin professor he wanted to show Harry the Slytherin Common Room because things were being done legally and within the walls of academics where Albus could also show his family the common room.

"Here's the deal. I have a journal where it would write down everything Voldemort would say or do. There's a map on it with hot spots where only the Slytherin 5th years know of his old locations.." he looked at Albus who pouted "sorry Albus. In time you'll get to learn the true history of the dark lord. Anyways. Please get comfortable. Eat, drink, plenty of drinks are coming from the kitchen this time round right?" He looked at Albus who nodded.
"What is this journal you speak of?" Harry asked and Draco chuckled "I wasn't always at the meetings with the Death Eaters so my father took it with him. It took notes for anytime I came late or weren't feeling good."
Draco spoke then walked up the steps to the bedrooms, Harry leaned back onto the couch and closed his eyes for a moment
"You're lucky you get to actually be Slytherin." He spoke up and Albus was looking at the fireplace
"Didn't you choose to be a Gryffindor?" He asked and Harry nodded.
"I could speak Parsel tongue, super well too.. I didn't want to go down that path of darkness yet. I knew in time this choice would catch up to me, but I didn't expect this war." He chuckled and stood up as drinks came in bottles. Albus grabbed a butter beer bottle and smiled popping it open.

"Do you like it here?" Harry asked and Albus shrugged "its not what I expected, seeing all the rumors by the wall photos about Slytherin being sneaky and doing bad things." He smirked to himself, Albus was the little rebel who liked pulling pranks with Peeves on the mudblood new years with his friends.
He sighed and bit his lip, Harry chuckled.
"What's so funny?" Albus asked and Harry smiled hugging his son behind him "look into the fire.. what do you see?" He asked and Albus tilted his head. It took a bit but it flashed before his eyes

"A body.. falling.. a manly scream for help but no one came to find him. He's out for revenge I bet."
Albus spoke and Harry raised an brow
"I know that vision.." Draco spoke up as he walked down and put the journal down
"Was that Crabbe?" Harry asked and Draco nodded
"That day is still in my memory.. he was the strongest out of the three of us. Blaise ran for his life after you saved us and escaped that accident." He shook his head.
"He's alive.." Albus said and Draco hissed "I know.. he wants revenge on us both. I have a feeling someone wants you dead too, Harry."
Harry shook his head and chuckled
"Everyone will always want me dead, it's not surprising. Funny thing is, I'd put my life in front of yours or Albus' first. I won't have another family member die for me.. not anymore."

Draco's arm started to sting and Albus looked over grabbing that same arm looking at the mark.
"He's here.." he spoke and Harry looked over at the snake like door at the entrance and the door slowly opened.
Vincent stood there with a smirk.
"Traitor.." he chuckled and Draco hissed
" how'd did you get in?!" Harry growled and Draco pulled him back, looking at Vincent who had death in his eyes. "You think I didn't want to come back to find you? I tried but the door wouldn't open." Draco motioned for Harry and Albus to head upstairs but Vincent sent the steps up the wall and growled with a smirk.
"Careful Malfoy, your lover isn't going to die yet.. and I say that nicely seeing you chose him over me."
Draco chuckled and rubbed the back of his neck
"Y..you.. you thought I chose him over you?" He spoke to Albus in a low parseltongue to get out of there while he handled this.
"Draco that's not nice to send our guests away while you deal with my anger.." he smirked and Draco walked up to Vincent biting his lip.
"Did you really think I'd leave you behind? Yes I know we couldn't go back for the time being, but Crabbe you're not only my best friend.. you're the only pure blood I cared for."
Vincent raised a brow and smirked looking over at the door using a wand to send the stairs back down so the Potter boys could leave
"You sure about this?" Albus used parseltongue to speak to Draco who looked back nodding.
"I'll join you in 2 minutes.. go to the Great Hall." He spoke back and Albus looked at his father, pulling Harry who grabbed the journal and left quickly..

It wasn't long until Draco had met them both of them in the Great Wall but he was covered in blood.
"Drake! What.. what happened?" Harry asked and Draco shook his head "Not my blood.. let's get out of here."
Albus tilted his he's shut they all left and met the others at the hideout where draco took off his clothes and went to shower.
"Bloody Hell!" Ron explained and looked at the blood on the clothes "he didn't.." he started again and Harry nodded "I'm assuming he used Avada on Crabbe and ended that life."
Ron shrugged as Ginny ran up to Harry and Albus hugging them both tightly "you're both okay.." Albus squirmed "too tight.." Ginny let go mouthing 'sorry' and looked at Harry.
"What's the plan?" She asked and Harry shook his head and pulled the journal out of his bag setting it on the table.
"Draco's the only one who can open it, so we'll wait a bit for him to finish getting clean." He sighed and flinched at the idea of this being the final answers to this war.

Draco walked out drying his hair as the others joined them in the living room.
"This is one of seven journals that every one of the death eaters had during our meeting so no one would forget the plan. I was sick a few times so the notes are all here.. there's one promise you must all keep with this journal." He looked at everyone who crossed their hearts.
"We keep this to ourselves.. yes we can learn about their plans but we do this ourselves. Pansy is someone who bends the rules so she has her own, she will share it with Luna and Neville. Oddly enough." He chuckled and sighed looked at Harry.
"My name will come up a few times, I want you to focus on what Tom says every step of this journal. Listen to his tone when he speaks to me, even when I'm not there." He cringed at the idea that an old wizard like Voldemort had lust for the weaker side of Draco bring the submissive weaker snake he was.

Everyone had listened to the journal and read the notes given. Every page was detailed and had plans of the world war with the mudbloods who went against his power.
"He's dead but it's like he's here next to you." Albus spoke up and Draco nodded "that's what kept us moving, he scared all of us. My father was strong, but he was trying to earn his place next to his side again. After Tom died, my father was broken. He was sent to the Azkaban therapy for at least two years to just to get him back on his feet." He smiled and shook his head

"This is all about fear.. not power."Harry chuckled and everyone looked at him.
"Think about it. Yes there's death but does that stop his power from taking over? No.. people feared him. Heck I'll admit it, I was afraid of him when I saw him in my nightmares about Mr. Weasley at the Ministry that night." He shook his head again and looked at the map of the school.
He rubbed his chin and flipped the map over of the school grounds looking around the graveyard on the school grounds.
"You broke the wand in half right?" Draco asked and Harry nodded "the magic never truly goes away though. The wand is still in a way out there and I think this will become deadlier than ever.
"Where do we find this wand?" Albus asked and both looked at him, Harry closing his eyes
"It's not the elder wand we need. It's something special that a great wizard like Dumbledore had but it's different magic where if you can see the magic today, you'll be able to find all of it and use it for good.. or evil if you wanted to." He smirked and looked at Draco who shrugged "I don't believe in second magic. So whatever it is, that person will find it." He rolled his eyes.

Harry had a strong feeling Albus was the one to find this wand. If not in his dreams, but in time it will reveal itself to him and he will find that magic he deserves.
