After I left, Hermione's i made my way towards an alley and turned back into myself.

"no way i'm doing this as a cat.'' I frowned, someone could recognize me. It was a long shot but still possible. I found a broken piece of glass and used my wand to transfigure my face. "Good enough." I nodded.

"Alright, Voldy's got multiple horcruxes. Kreacher destroyed the one from the cave. I'm betting one is his mothers bracelet. He was always talking about it. And there will be no way for Dumbledore to know about it."

I thought for a moment and aparated with a turn.

I opened my eyes and admired the small town at the bottom of the hill.

"I bet he would have been a much better person if he was raised here. Looks like the kind of place to have nice people."

I shrugged and turned around. A little in the distance was a big house with big hedges and trees. I made my way towards the house and stopped at the gate. There was an old man trimming one of the hedges.

I sighed and thought up a lie.

"Sir! Excuse me!" the old man looked my way and grumbled something before walking over.

"What?"

"Well, my parents were friends with the riddles before they passed and I know it was years ago but my parents recently passed and in their will there was this bracelet that was left here when they visited the riddles a few months before their death. I was hoping you would allow me to retrieve it."

The old man looked sceptical but nonetheless opened the gate.

"Just, don't take anything other than the bracelet."

"Of course," I flashed him a smile and made my way into the house.

As soon as the door closed I pulled my wand out and muttered a compass charm on a decorative blue fork looking thing. As long as the bracelet was in the building the fork would point me in the right direction.

The fork spun sound multiple times, never settling on one direction. I sighed and removed the charm and walked out of the house.

The old man looked at me questioningly. "Couldn't find it." I said and closed the gate behind me.

I thought for a moment and sighed then aparated away.
