HP Dawn Night

"Now we're finally here to clear things up." Dad motioned me to sit down at the dinner table. "Let's start with your flawed but incredibly successful plan."

It took me a long time to explain all the unexpected events of the past year, and Dad listened intently without even interrupting me once.

"My story is finished, it's your turn."

"Dumbledore's death was not an accident. He was irreversibly and seriously injured a year ago due to his own carelessness. So he directed his own death. Dumbledore believes that your soul should not be killed because of this killing." Fallen, so he arranged for me to do it instead of you. Of course, your plan inadvertently disrupted our plan, and the person who did it became Bellatrix." Dad briefly finished Dumbledore's arrangement, "You seem to have a problem?"

Without thinking, I asked the question that has troubled me for a long time: "Why are you willing to take the risk of being an undercover agent for Dumbledore? I mean, you don't look like a white wizard through and through."

"That's a great question, but I can't tell you why." Dad's answer wasn't too surprising.

"Does my mother know why?"

"Yes," Dad said, "the other thing I'm going to tell you actually has to do with your mother. You may have heard from Draco that she was in a German city when she was captured by the Death Eaters." small town."

"Yes, it can be seen that you were lying to me before." I said a little excitedly, "Then can you please explain why she is in Germany?"

"Your mother is also working for Dumbledore—"

"What!" I jumped up in shock, but my father was expressionless:

"Since you have found out about Margaret's past, do you think that after this series of events, she will stand by and watch the Dark Lord's second rise? What's more, what you know is just the tip of the iceberg That's all."

I kept silent, thinking about this question quickly.There's nothing special about Germany, except—"She's looking for Gellert Grindelwald?" I sat back in my chair. "He's still in Nurmengard."

"Your IQ seems to have improved a lot." Dad said with obvious sarcasm, "The Dark Lord sent some Death Eaters to Germany to find another person, and Dumbledore got a warning from it, so he decided to give Grindel Wo sent some warnings..."

"Who are they going to? What is the warning? Why is this related to Grindelwald?" I frowned, only to find that my father shook his head in the same way:

"Dumbledore didn't tell me his full plan, all I know is that he's looking for someone to deliver the message for him - a member of the Order of the Phoenix or an Auror wouldn't be the best choice, as the Death Eaters are keeping an eye on them - So I recommended your mother to him."

I know there is no reason for me to be angry: "And then?"

"Dumbledore asked her to send a message to Grindelwald to 'take care of himself'. The plan was supposed to go unnoticed, but something went wrong, and the Dark Lord suddenly sent the Lestrange brothers—"

"I know what happened," I said darkly. "Theodore Nott must have been suspicious when he told the Dark Lord that I and Draco were unfaithful. He probably didn't know that Dumbledore was going to Grindel." Waugh, maybe he just wants me to be under his control..."

"There's so much we don't know about this. I'm trying to figure things out bit by bit, so you have to take it easy," Dad warned, "but you'll need to see the Dark Lord soon, Are you sure you want to do that?" He looked at my left arm.

"Of course. I realize that the premise of any plan is the trust of the Dark Lord." I nodded again to confirm, "Do you know the next plan of the Death Eaters—about Hogwarts."

"The Dark Lord will make sure that I become headmaster of Hogwarts, and then the Carrows will appear at the school as professors. Now more than half of the Ministry of Magic is in the hands of the Death Eaters, as long as he can infiltrate the power into Hogwarts." Hey, the Dark Lord can do whatever he wants." Dad said, "They will soon change a series of policies through the Ministry of Magic, such as the Muggle Blood Register, and the Dark Lord wants to force all children to go to Hogwarts to go to school so they'll grow up under his watch—"

"But the premise of going to Hogwarts is to prove the purity of blood?" I realized what kind of plan the Dark Lord was brewing, "then this will be a road of no return for many of them. "

"Correct."

"Is there anything we can do?"

"No," Dad denied. "Don't forget we can't expose ourselves. Once the Dark Lord realizes our betrayal, he'll put real Death Eaters in Hogwarts. You know what that means."

"You mentioned 'betrayal', which means..." I was taken aback, "You are no longer loyal to the Dark Lord?"

"You misunderstand me deeply, Vio. I'm afraid I'm not a White Wizard, but I've never been loyal to the Dark Lord." My heart jumped for joy at this sentence, but Dad continued to pour cold water: " The topic has gone far, don't forget that we still have a lot of trouble."

"Yes. The Dark Lord doesn't trust me yet, my mother is still in the dungeon at Malfoy Manor, we don't know anything about Germany yet..."

"Don't worry about your mother, Narcissa will make sure she doesn't get hurt," Dad said, "but do you understand what the Dark Mark means?"

"It means I'm a Death Eater."

"That may be a stain that you can't wash off in your life."

"If I can use my identity as a Death Eater to help Potter win, then I will be a hero." I grabbed my left arm subconsciously, "But he will really trust me because of a Dark Mark ?"

"The Dark Lord is currently short of available manpower. You are undoubtedly a good choice in all aspects, not to mention that you didn't kill Dumbledore, and he won't worry about your power being too strong." Dad comforted, " And your request for the Dark Mark undoubtedly further proves your innocence."

A few days later, the Dark Lord indeed summoned me.

This was a private summons, still in that dark hall.

"Violet Snape." The Dark Lord's grim voice echoed, with treacherous and shifting tones.

"You wish to see me, my lord?"

"After several futile attempts, your mission has failed," the Dark Lord announced.

"I believe you have already seen what happened on the tower." I looked down at the cracks in the marble, "but I have nothing to defend myself, Dumbledore did not die by my hand, so I accept your any punishment or accusation."

"What a beautiful speech, Violet," said the Dark Lord softly, "but why should I punish you, look, how many people in this world can disarm the great Dumbledore? Ah—you are only one step away from killing him..."

"Even if it's only half a step away, it's a failure."

"You remind me of another person from a long time ago, little Violet." The Dark Lord said in a cold tone, "I once lost a capable person because of my own mistakes, and such a mistake is enough."

I realized that my chance had come: "My lord, what do you mean?"

"Look, I don't want pearls buried in the sand." The Dark Lord said slowly, and I quickly raised my head and begged, "If you mean what I think, then that's exactly what I secretly hoped for." many years."

"Years?" The Dark Lord's voice changed suddenly, and those terrifying red eyes narrowed, "Oh..."

My heart clenched, "Yes, for years. I've long since realized that there should be a line separating us from the lowly mudbloods, and that those thieves who steal magic should be killed by Biavada The curse is ten thousand times more terrible punishment. It may seem hypocritical to say this, but the night that hangs over the heads of pure-blood wizards has been long enough. I—or we—have been waiting for the dawn of the past ten years Arrival... Therefore, the greatest Lord Dark Lord, I ask you to grant me the Dark Mark, as a gift and blessing, with its power, even the second Goldstein Gryffindor cannot stop it our progress."

"Even rocks will be touched by these words." The Dark Lord said lazily, "Of course, I should have given you a mark... Your blood is indeed worthy of such a gift..." He said to me Beckoning, I hurried forward and pulled up the sleeve of my left arm. The Dark Lord didn't use his wand, but stretched out his pale, bony hand and placed it above my arm.He murmured a series of complicated and difficult spells, and the Dark Lord's index finger moved slowly, outlining the shape of the Dark Mark. Following his movements, I felt a burst of pain, and I tried my best not to let it go. Arms trembled, and I lowered my head and clenched my teeth. Under my gaze, it seemed that an invisible knife carved the shape of the Dark Mark on the flesh. Blood oozed from the wound and fell to the ground drop by drop. At the same time, that The marks are also gradually visible, and the color is getting darker.The snake that never leaves the Dark Lord's body came out from under his throne, and stretched out the snake letter to lick the blood on the ground...

"Welcome, young Snape," hissed the Dark Lord. "You will serve me wholeheartedly until the end of your life."

When I walked out of the lobby, Dad, Aunt Narcissa, and Draco were all waiting outside with worried faces.

"This will help the wound heal." We walked into the reception room, and Aunt Narcissa hurriedly pulled me over to apply white fresh water on the wound.

"Does it hurt?" Draco stared at my wounds, they healed quickly under the action of Bai Xian.

I shook my head: "Did he forgive you too?"

"Yes, easily, without any punishment." Draco frowned, "I don't understand why—"

"Lucius will be released soon, so the Dark Lord will not punish you at this juncture. Besides, he still needs you to do things for him." Dad paced the room, "What other plans does he have?" , I'm not quite sure."

"Aunt Narcissa, I want to see my mother." I begged, "Just one minute, just one side."

"That's a bold proposal!" Before Aunt Narcissa could speak, Bellatrix walked in with a disgusted expression, seeing that I was unharmed, the suppressed anger on her body became more and more obvious.

"I don't think this is an excessive request." I stood up and stretched out my left arm. The Dark Mark was reflected in Bella's eyes, and I clearly saw her pupils constrict. "The Dark Lord still decides to use me again."

Bella stepped back, her lips drawn into a line.

"Bella..." Aunt Narcissa said uneasily.But Bella turned a deaf ear to her voice and walked away.

"The Dark Lord has been a little cold towards her recently." Draco explained in a low voice, and I immediately understood the reason.

"Come with me, Vio, I'll take you to Maggie." Aunt Narcissa sighed, "Severus, you don't mind waiting here with Draco for a while?"

"Actually I'm going to see the Dark Lord later," said Dad. "I'll go to Vio after that."

Aunt Narcissa nodded and led me out of the reception room.Perhaps because of the Dark Lord, the magnificent Malfoy Manor has become dark and depressing. Aunt Narcissa led me up the stairs to a closed door at the end of the corridor: "Maggie is different from other prisoners." , she is under house arrest." She explained in a low voice, knocking on the door with her wand.

The door opened slowly, and my heart hung up.Inside was a not-so-small bedroom, and then—"Vio!" Mom ran across the room and hugged me, "I didn't expect to see you again!"

"Stop being silly." I hugged her tightly, "Dad told me everything."

"Go in and talk." Aunt Narcissa interrupted uneasily, she stared at the other rooms in panic, and my mother pulled me into the room:

"There are a lot of Death Eaters living in Malfoy Manor now." She explained in a low voice, while reaching out to touch my face, I found that although she was a little thinner, she looked in good spirits:

"Don't worry, Mom, you will leave here." I thought for a while, then rolled up my sleeves to show her the Dark Mark on my arm, "The more the Dark Lord trusts me, the better my chances of winning." There was a strange flash of light, and I thought she understood what I meant.She held my hand tightly:

"Go home and take out all the things that should be taken from the secret room." Her eyes sparkled, "Vio, good boy, you have grown up."

"Mom, besides asking you to deliver a message, what did Dumbledore say?" I didn't care about sensationalism, and asked hastily, "This is very important."

But Mom just shook her head: "He just told me it was about the Dark Lord, and told me not to be nervous. If I got caught by Death Eaters, I could tell them the message. Dumbledore looked weak then, but Still wise and dependable," Mom recalls, "and he asked me to bring Grindelwald the latest local newspaper."

"Have you seen Grindelwald?"

"Yes, I brought him Dumbledore's message and the newspaper. After he finished reading it, he asked me if I could come back the next day and deliver a letter to Dumbledore for him...but at midnight that day, Les The Trange Brothers came to the door, and I was not in the hotel at the time, so they easily found out the room I was staying in, and then raided..."

The thread eventually fell off.

"Mom, do you think it's possible that Dumbledore told the second person the news about Grindelwald?"

"Dumbledore is very cautious." She shook her head, "Anyway, at least Grindelwald has received the news. But there is one thing I want to tell you, after Brother Lestrange brought me back here, I Straight into the room, no one even came to interrogate me. It didn't make sense. They just sent Sissy to take my necklace."

"Maybe they just want to use you to intimidate me, and the Dark Lord knows very well that if you suffer under his hands, I will only be more inclined to Dumbledore's side." I comforted her, "So, they don't Do you know why you are in Germany?"

"I'm sure they didn't put me on Veritaserum or Legilimency, so don't know."

"Dad said there were some Death Eaters in Germany looking for another one?" I asked. "Have you heard about it?"

"I was locked up here for a long time, and occasionally I heard a few words." Mom recalled, "They often mentioned the words 'Germany' and 'magic wand.'"

I raise my eyebrows: Germany?wand?

At this moment, Aunt Narcissa, who was watching the wind outside the door, knocked on the door. When I came back to my senses, my mother hurriedly hugged me: "Go."

I hurriedly took out my mother's necklace from my pocket and returned it to the original owner: "This belongs to you, Mom, please take care of yourself, I will take you out as soon as possible."
