Chapter 140: Headmaster Snape

"Let's go," Edwin said seeing that Hermione already have Hufflepuff's cup, but as Edwin turned around Griphook was there with a silver sword in his hand examining it.

"Is that Gryffindor's Sword" Ron shouted as he saw the sword" we could destroy the cup"

"No" Edwin quickly shouted out, there was no need to destroy the cup" we destroy it in Hogwarts"

"But we- "

Harry cut Ron off "Let's go we will destroy it in Hogwarts"

As they walked out of the Lestrange family Vault, Edwin turned back to see all the items that he would have taken if there were more time," Would it work" Edwin muter to himself thinking if using the time turner would be possible.

"Dam it" Griphook shouted out and the sound of metal hitting the ground could be heard before he left the vault.

"Everything alright," Edwin asked looking at the goblin who turned a faint pinkish-red in his face.

"It's a fake"

The polyjuice potion ran out but they had packed some in case of that and after a drink, they were back to being imposters," how did Bellatrix get a fake sword" Hermione asked as they were changing.

"Maybe Dumbledore switched it," Ron said.

"It's no use worrying about a fake sword let's just get out of here," Griphook said as he once again took the lead.

Passing by the dragon Edwin once again couldn't take his eyes off of it" you want to free it" Isabella asked

"Yeah but we can't," Edwin said with a heavy tone" if we fee him then Tom would know what we're up to and we need him to be clueless"

"Maybe after all this is over you can free it," Isabella said.

The group passed the dragon and soon arrived at the tracks, where the goblin was still standing guard" what are we going to do about him" Harry asked.

"We keep the curse on and carry him up" Edwin replied in a blank tone as the boarded the carriage that took them up with great speed.

As they got closer and closer to the entrance Edwin paranoia started to set in as he started to prepare for a fight that may come, his wand was out and being hidden under his robes and he kept looking around for any signs of death eaters but none showed up.

The simply walked out of Gringotts which caused Edwin to grabbed everyone and Apparate as soon as they arrived outside of Gringotts anti- Apparation charm, "what was that about" Ron asked coughing.

"The plan went right," Edwin said with many surprises" I had expected at least one hiccup, but since none happen we can destroy the Horcrux,"

"Harry, we need to borrow the cloak and the cup," Edwin said as he made his way to the vanishing cabinet "Tell Ivan that I'm going to stay at Hogwarts to help organize tomorrow's attack"

Edwin and Isabella stepped into the vanishing cabinet and soon arrived in an unknown room to them, but with the cloak, they weren't at least bit worried; they quickly exited the room only to find that it was the room of requirement.

Not following his usual routine Edwin went down to the chamber and perform the ritual destroying the Horcrux but due to not removing the curse before doing the ritual the cup still could not be touched" Isabella" Edwin called out.

"I have to do something important, more important than organizing some attack," Edwin said with a smile" I need you to organize the attack with Moody"

Edwin knew that he could count on Isabella to organize the attack, so he didn't have much to worry about in that area; Edwin made his way to the Headmaster office and started to knock on the door shouting Professor Snape.

Luckily Snape was in his office at the time or else Edwin would have to wait there until he came back from whatever trip" What" Snape hissed as he opened the door pointing his wand at the air.

Snape looked worse than he had ever been, his eyes were black and baggy, he somehow became paler "Edwin" Snape called out as Edwin dropped the cloak.

"You look terrible," Edwin said entering the office "how is your new office treating you, Headmaster Snape"

"Why are you here," Snape asked.

"We are going to attack Hogwarts tomorrow and take it back from the death eaters" Edwin replied with a smile and he soon took a seat.

"then what are you doing here," Snape asked turning his hands around to show his death eater tattoo" I'm a death eater"

"We both know that's far from the truth," Edwin said glaring at Snape" why are you doing this, you no longer have to spy on the dark lord"

Snape could say anything and just stood there looking at Edwin" your job is done, there are only two Horcrux remaining and that's counting in Harry you no longer need to pretend to be a Death Eater, you could help us take back Hogwarts"

"No one will believe the man who Killed Dumbledore is on their side," Snape said in a soft tone as he opens a fire whiskey and gives Edwin a glass.

Edwin could faintly tell that Snape no longer wanted to spy "would you rather go down in the history books as the man who betrayed the greatest wizard of all time and died with the dark lord"

"I'm not doing this out of fame and credit," Snape said taking a sip" I just want to fix what I did"

"Then do so standing with us, defending your school Headmaster Severus Snape"
