Naomi POV:

The morning after Ron left I woke up and saw Harry wasn't next to me which wasn't normal for us since I'm usually the first one up. I got up and walked out of the room we were in and into the living room to see Aurora sitting at the counter with a cup of tea in her hand.

"Harry wasn't in bed this morning?" She asked looking over to me.

"Nope, I'm assuming Kaden wasn't either?"

She let out a sigh and shook her head as she got up and poured me a cup of tea.

"Thank you." I said taking a seat next to her.

As Aurora and I were drinking our tea, we were both reading a book Dumbledore left for us. While we were reading I glanced over at the book Aurora had and saw the same symbol that was in my book.

"Aurora, that symbol has Dumbledore said anything about it in any of the books he's left for us?" I asked looking at the symbol in both of our books. The symbol was a triangle with a circle in the middle and was split down the middle with a line.

"Not that I've read, why?"

"it's just..."

"Hermione was right!" We heard from the entrance of the tent and saw Harry, Kaden, and Sirius walking into the tent. "You ladies were right. Snitches have flesh memories, but I didn't catch my first snitch... I almost swallowed it."

"Good morning to you too, mister." I said playfully rolling my eyes making Aurora chuckle.

"Huh? Oh right, yes good morning gorgeous." Harry said as he came over to me and gave me a quick kiss.

"Great save, Potter." Kaden said going over to Aurora. "Good morning love." He said giving her a kiss.

Harry placed the snitch on the island in between Aurora and I as Bella and Hermione now entered the space. We all looked at the snitch to see it read.

I open at the close.

"I open at the close." Hermione whispered.

"What do you reckon it means?" Bella said.

"We don't know." Aurora said. "But Naomi and I may have found something."

Aurora and I placed our books down and we all looked at the symbol before Kaden and Hermione left to go grab books as well. When they came back the opened the books and they also had the same symbol.

"I knew I saw that symbol somewhere. At first I thought it was relevant to something Dylan had written down but now that I see it in more than one book, it was placed there on purpose. It looks like some sort of rune and it's not in anything I've read from Claire either. Someone drew this in, it's not apart of the original text and it's drawn the same way meaning one person did it and they want us to figure it out." Kaden said.

"Wait, Luna's dad was wearing that." Harry said getting a look at the drawling. "At Bill and Fleur's wedding."

"What do you mean wearing it?" Bella asked.

"Around his neck." Harry said. "Like an amulet. I didn't think much of it at the time. You know Luna... She's always got one mad thing or another she's carrying around or wearing."

"But why would the symbol be drawn in four different books?" Sirius asked as we all began to think.

"I've been thinking as well." Harry said as we all looked at him. "Kaden and I talked about it this morning, we want to go to Godric's Hollow. It's where we were born, it's where my parents died."

"And it's exactly where they would expect you two to go." Aurora said. "Because it has special meaning to you two."

"It means something to them as well though." Kaden added. "They nearly died there. Wouldn't you think that sounds like a significant place to hide a horcrux?"
