Chapter 30 :
"Dobby is here to help Lady Malfoy and her family. Dobby feels indebted to Lady Malfoy for her kindness. Dobby shall do everything he can to save her." said Dobby widely looking at Lucius Malfoy and then glancing his attention to Dumbledore.
Lucius was relieved, for a moment smile could be seen forming on his face. He truly admired the house elf standing infront of him. Even after his bad and dominating behavior, Dobby was still ready to help his family. He now realized how important every creature and person can be in life. He had always despised Dumbledore and Dobby, but today these two personalities were his only sunshine that would make its way through the darkness.
Speaking of darkness, The Dark Lord shall be very difficult to be fooled. He only wishes that everything will go as per planned. But he has to momentarily distract Dark Lord's attention, only then they can change the bodies..
"We have to distract The Dark Lord, inorder to apparate my wife here." said Lucius looking at Dumbledore. "Ahh, yes Mr Malfoy, do you know any of his valuable objects?" asked Dumbledore. Lucius then thought about it, the diary of the Dark Lord- a Horcrux. It then clicked his mind that he must have created more Horcruxes.......
"Dumbledore, do u remember The Diary of Tom Riddle?? It was his Horcrux, I believe he must have created more." said Lucius.
Dumbledore nodded, "Yes, Mr Malfoy. I know it was his Horcrux. We need to find the rest inorder to weaken him. Only then he can be entirely defeated. And I want your help to find those Horcruxes. This may risk your life as well, but you have to help us in return to keep your family safe.""I'll do whatever I can. I believe that he has hidden something in Bellatrix Lestrange's vault. I heard Bellatrix speaking of how she is very important to the Dark Lord and the way he trusts her. I'm positive she has one of the Horcrux with her, and the safest place is her vault!" said Lucius with determination. He was very adamant now to find it, even if this causes him to sacrifice his life. He wanted that evil monster to be dead as soon as possible!!
"Very well then Mr Malfoy. Remember the Horcrux have deep dark magic. Only silence will help you to feel it. You can see the difference between the Horcrux and the other objects, it will solely attract your mind, provided you don't loose your focus. You don't have much time, you can take my dear friend Kreacher (a house elf willing to serve Dumbledore, but Dumbledore considers them to be equals and calls them as his friend) Kreacher can apparate you to and fro the Gringtons vault. But this may raise the alarm while you apparate , so you will have only 5 mins to do so. Utilize your time carefully, you won't get another chance." said Dumbledore, reading Lucius face.
Lucius nodded but he was thinking deeply about something else, "Prof McGonagall, if I may ask you, where do you intend to keep my wife ?? Can you please tell me the name and address of the Muggles, where she will stay ? asked Lucius, with concern.
Prof McGonagall cleared her throat, " Don't worry Mr Malfoy, she will be in the safest place, I know the family very well. All I can say is that they have a daughter, who is a student in hogwarts, so I'm sure they will help us. I can't disclose you any more facts about the location, as that would not be safe. The Dark Lord can read minds very well as he advances in legitimacy. So please cooperate with us, we can't risk this at all. Hope you understand."
Lucius wondered who this student must be..
On the other hand, Hermoine too was thinking the same...._____________________________________________
