As Lucius and Draco apparated out of the manor and into Riddle Manor, they noticed Severus standing near Voldemort, casually conversing about the upcoming tasks.

Voldemort looked up after hearing the crackling of apparition in his presence. "Draco. Lucius. What do I owe for the visit?"

"My Lord, we believe we know where Mattheo has Pansy Parkinson," Draco spoke up with a slight bow before speaking.

"Where? How do you know?"

"My Lord, Cassius, and Fenir showed up while Skyra and I were trying to enjoy the last bit of vacation left before returning to continue working on the task. Skyra used her legilimens to go into Cassius' memories. She did not tell us what she found but said 'she's there'. Emphasizing on the there."

Voldemort was quite reluctant about what they were talking about where the missing Parkinson daughter is.

His face grew annoyed without the answer he truly wanted.

Lucius stepped forward, "My Lord, my daughter, and Mr. Zabini were searching through books and found one entry in the Parkinson Heritage and Homes that seemed odd until we questioned Skyra who immediately became enraged. The location of the house and the name of the person added up to her. Therefore she used legilimens to enter Cassius' memories. I believe it may be where your son is."

"Lucius, go fetch Skyra. Draco, you go inspect the location. Use force if you must. Remember what we discussed privately before you left for holiday." Voldemort hissed wanting answers.

They had both apparated out of Riddle Manor and to separate locations.

Lucius became concerned as he didn't know what they had previously discussed. What was Draco getting himself into? Does Skyra know what is going on or is she completely in the dark as well?

He's sure Draco will make the right choice, whatever the conversation consists of.

"Skyra, come with me," he looked down at her arm indicating the dark mark.

She strutted over to him, leaving the room.

"Young Ms. Parkinson. Lucius and Draco gave a brief description of what this location is. Can you go give me some more detail?"

Before she could begin talking, he pointed to the chairs in front of him and Severus, insinuating they must sit.

Skyra had always been nervous around Voldemort, knowing the power he held. Not knowing how much power he truly possessed.

The only person in the wizarding world to create a horcrux. Much less creating seven of them at once. Splitting his soul into seven different pieces.

She had never understood how or why someone would merely want to do that. But he was the Dark Lord, he must know best why he would feel the need to do so.

"It's a book that is focused on the Parkinson's family homes and properties. Telling the family who lived there and when they vacated the house. If you use the revelio spell it will show more if the home is vacant or occupied at the moment."

She took a breath before continuing, "When Lucius had me open the book and I saw the location of the house along with the name, everything started to be pieced together in my brain."

"What caused that?" Voldemort questioned with a sense of urgency and anger fulfilling his voice

"My mother. Her maiden name was Avery. The name of the person who is occupying said house is Henry James Avery."

"And who is this Henry Avery?"

"My Lord, he is my mother's great nephew. My cousin whom I didn't know existed, nor did I know about my mother's sister. My father had relations with my cousin and impregnated her. She gave him an heir— Henry James Avery. Thinking of he had the Avery last name, no one would suspect my father of being his father."
