Unknown Origins - HP Roleplay Book

Chapter 46 - The Snatchers

It was night, the girls were sleeping in the tent and Harry was sitting against a tree, lost in thought. That's when something snapped him back to reality. It was a patronus, a deer. At first he thought it was his future self like the first time until he noticed something. This wasn't a stag, it was a doe. Harry slowly got up, looking back at the tent before he followed the patronus. The doe remained ahead of him before running across a frozen lake, disappearing into the distance.

"Lumos." Harry lit up his wand while he slowly walked on the lake.

He then looked down and was shocked at what he saw. It was the Sword of Gryffindor! It was under the ice.

Harry pointed his wand at the ice, "Accio sword."

The sword moved slightly but it wasn't getting any where out of the ice.

Harry sighed, pointing his wand back down at the ice, "Diffindo."

The ice broke apart after being hit by the spell, leaving an opening for him. Harry walked off the ice and began stripping. He took off all of his clothes, only leaving his boxers, the locket and his glasses on. He then stepped into the water, realising it was quite a bit deeper than he thought as he reached out for the sword. Not to mention it was freezing, just as he was about to take the sword the locket pulled itself back, trying to get away from the sword and choking Harry in the process. He felt himself slipping away as he was dragged out by someone.

Harry was taking in as much air as he could, putting his glasses back on, "Girls?"

"Guess again, mate." Ron chuckled, looking at his friend.

"It was you." Harry shivered, getting his clothes back on.

"Can't let my best friend drown can I?" Ron asked, picking up the sword.

"Did you cast the doe as well, did you?" Harry asked.

"Doe? No, I don't know who cast that." Ron told him.

"Well it wasn't me. My patronus is a Stag and the girls are back at camp so it couldn't of been them." Harry put his jumper back on.

"Take the locket off, let's end this." Ron stated, looking down at him.

Harry nodded, putting the locket on a log, "Right then, Ron. I'll have to speak to it for it to open, when it does, don't hesitate. One.. Two.. Three."

He then began speaking in Parsletongue. That's when it opened and showed what looked like Harry and Hermione making out. Spiders also began running at Ron, all the while he was backing up, the spiders disappeared and Ron watched the fake Harry and Hermione kiss.

"Ron! Don't listen to it! Destroy it!" Harry yelled.

Ron gripped the sword tightly and charged at the locket. He swung down swifty, smashing the cursed item. Harry looked up at the locket before he walked over to Ron, sitting down next to him, breathing heavily.

Ron sighed as he looked at Harry,"I'm really sorry about what I said back then."

Harry nodded slowly, "It was the locket speaking, you didn't mean it."

"I still feel bad though, what if something bad happened while I was gone?" Ron asked, sitting down.

"I mean.. We all nearly died from a snake." Harry looked at Ron.

"Excuse me, what?" Ron questioned him.

"We went to Godrics Hollow, to look for Bathilda Bagshot. Erica nearly got killed but I got there in time. Then she blew the snake and house up." Harry explained.

"My sister nearly died.." Ron muttered as he got up,"So where's the tent?"

"That way." Harry pointed towards the tent, "Hopefully they'll wake up."
