Chapter #35: Mind control.

Back at Dumbledore’s secret cottage, Harry, James, and Sirius were holding a secret meeting after their last adventure.

“Well, we finally got rid of another, but the ones left are going to be the most difficult, we still need to destroy the cup, the snake, and the diary,” Harry said with a serious tone.

“Any idea how we can get them? Sirius, you’re lord black, don’t you have any power over your cousin’s vaults?” Asked James with a tone full of interest.

“No, as far as I know, the vault is in the Lestrange vault, not in her Black vault, I have no power over it,” Sirius sighed.

They were disappointed, but that was to be expected; this wasn’t going to be an easy task.

“So, are you still in touch with Narcissa?” Asked James with an uneasy expression.

“No, she has always hated me; it’s worse now,” Sirius couldn’t help but groan.

Both older men remained silent; they were out of ideas, but then, Harry got to his feet and took the lead.

“I guess it’s time for you guys to meet the person who’s working for me,” Harry told them, and they looked at him with raised brows before they looked at each other.

Harry suddenly took a crystal cube and tapped it with his wand; both James and Sirius were completely confused by what was happening.

“Harry to Dragon, Harry to Dragon,” Harry said to the cube.

It took a while, but then a voice was heard coming from the cube, someone whose voice both Sirius and James found annoying.

“Dragon here…For fuck’s sake, Potter, you’re alive!” The figure of Draco Malfoy appeared in the crystal cube.

“There’s no way I’m dying before you, Malfoy,” Harry said with a smirk.

Draco tried to smile, but he was worried, and Harry caught that reaction even if it lasted for a slight second.

“What’s going on? Has the dark lord said anything about us?” Asked Harry with a curious expression.

“Anything? He’s been ranting about you and your family for days; he has become quite insufferable, to be honest,” Draco told him with a smile. “I was worried for a second that he was going to kill my dad,” he told Harry with a sad tone.

“That was to be expected, from what I heard, he’s like a baby, he’s always having emotional outbursts,” Harry jokingly said, and Draco laughed. “Still, I didn’t call you for that…I need to talk to you about the Horcruxes,” Harry's words caused Draco to flinch, but he got serious.

“What did you find out?” Asked the blonde with a tone full of interest.

It’s clear that he wanted to get rid of Voldemort now; the love and worship he had for the dark wizard were gone. The moment he decided to lay a hand on his father was when Draco decided that it was enough; he didn’t want anything to do with the Death Eaters anymore.

“It seems like there’s one in your home, it’s a diary, you can search for it by saying ‘accio Tom Riddle’s diary’, the thing has a bloody red color,” Harry told him, and Draco was surprised to hear that name.

“Tom Riddle? I heard my grandpa complain about that person once…” Draco said with a curious expression.

“Yes, that’s his real name, Tom Riddle. I need you to contact me if you find it. Don’t grab it without dragon skin gloves, trust me, those things can influence you very badly, and it can lead you to make something you'll regret if you ever regain your consciousness,” Harry warned him.

“I can do that,” Draco promised him as he caressed his chin.

“Once you have it, I want you to bring it to Dumbledore’s secret cottage, then, we’re going to get rid of it,” Harry explained, and Draco raised an eyebrow.

“We?” The blonde was curious.

“…Yes, my dad and Sirius are here,” Harry told him with a serious expression.

Soon, both older wizards were surprised to see Draco Malfoy in real time. The blonde didn’t know what to think about this, and they were just too shocked knowing that not only Harry had a Death Eater working for him, but it was the second most important Death Eater, as he was the son of the minister.

“I know what you two are thinking, no, you can’t harm him, he can’t do anything to us because of the unbreakable vow he made, so, don’t do anything, not even a prank,” Harry warned both James and Sirius.

The older wizards were surprised by how protective Harry was about Draco, but in the end, they nodded, also…How’s the relationship between you and Bellatrix Lestrange…I mean Black?” Harry questioned, and Draco sighed.

“Well, I’m her favorite nephew, but that doesn’t say much considering how much she hates Nymphadora, so, in the end, I can safely say that at least she doesn’t hate me,” Draco tried to rationalize the behavior of his crazy aunt.

“Good…This is going to be interesting,” Harry explained, and both adults nodded.

“Well, I'd better get to work and find that diary…Call me if you need anything else,” the blonde told him before finishing the call.

“Well, that was an interesting meeting to say the least,” James told his son with a surprised expression.

“Yeah, I know the relationship between the Potter and Malfoy families is not good, but I can assure you that he has been a very good asset,” he promised Sirius, and they nodded.

“So, about the plan for Bellatrix?” James questioned, and Harry nodded, it was time to explain what he had in mind.

Meanwhile, Draco was roaming around the house trying to find the diary, he called for it using the summoning charm just like Harry told him, but nothing was coming out, he moved around the house, he visited all the rooms that had books, luckily his parents weren’t at home so he could visit his father’s study and surprisingly, there was nothing in there.

“Well, this is the last obstacle. I hope I don’t find anything disturbing inside,” Draco said to himself as he stared at the door of his parents’ room.

Once he opened the door, he was received by a lot of arrows, but luckily Draco was already prepared, so, he managed to get them back to their place as a trap for the next intruder, he smirked and finally called for the diary.

Nothing happened for a moment but then, coming from his father’s pillow, there it was a red book, but the thing was refusing to get caught, luckily he already had the dragon gloves ready and in an unexpected quick movement, he finally got it, the diary was in his posession but then, something happened, Draco couldn’t help but fall on the ground as he felt something taking over his mind.

He looked at himself in the mirror before his personality changed, he was usually arrogant, evil but he wasn’t cruel, however, touching the diary has caused a serious personality change, now Draco feels charming, confident to get anything he wanted, it was time to take control of his life, so, he decided to finally take his duties as the current head of Malfoy house.

While Narcissa and Lucius were visiting a healer, as it seems like the cruciatus really affected Lucius, Draco was wandering on the manor as if he owned the place, but he looked different, more stylish and arrogant, he was looking at his father's portrait, and he was disappointed.
