This chapter is going to be split up into a few different parts. I am going to (try to remember to) upload a new part every day.
Mission
Months of preparation had gone into this plan. Hermione had made sure that as many variables were taken care of as possible. She did not want to leave any room for error.
The recruits had either been informed or volunteered when they caught wind of the plan. Some seemed to be more willing than others, but each took the responsibility with the understanding that there was a very real chance that they could lose their life.
They had split into their teams, and each person had as detailed an outline as Hermione was able to give. No one knew that the objects they were seeking were horcruxes. All they knew is that they had to get their prize back to Hermione and Dumbledore in one piece.
Part 1: Sirius and Remus
“Remus, will you quit being such a lousy companion, and just cheer up.”
Remus gave Sirius a dirty look as he continued to walk beside him.
“Hermione gave us the hardest job out of all them,” was all that Remus replied with. “How on Earth are we meant to go and find Helga Hufflepuff’s cup? There is no guarantee that it is in the Lestrange vault.”
Sirius looked thoughtful for a minute. He had always been the kind of person who had been up for a challenge when the opportunity presented itself, but even he thought that attempting to rob a vault at Gringotts was a little far-fetched.
“You’re right,” answered Sirius, his eyes widening in astonishment. “There is no guarantee that it will be in the Lestrange vault because Hermione said that Hufflepuff’s Cup was entrusted to my ‘darling’ cousin Bellatrix. She is engaged to be married to Rodolphus, but she is not a Lestrange just yet. The Cup will still be in the Black vault, not the Lestrange vault as she is still a member of the Black family.”
Sirius stopped walking, and he felt Remus do the same beside him.
“Sirius, this may be the only time I ever say this to you in your lifetime, so I want you to appreciate it: You are a genius.”
