Chapter 38: How Albus, Quinn and Tyler Started Their Journey for the Horcruxes
First things first I'm in Sicily so I have to do this on my phone so there might be loads of mistakes. Please point them out as you go. Secondly, because I'm in Sicily, it might take a while before I update. Sorry about that.

The group was drenched after not long. Cold, worried and panicky they waited until the rest would come. Quinn, Albus and Tyler sat a little bit away from the others, discussing what to do.
"Why don't we let Harry do it?" Tyler asked, but Albus shook his head.
"I love my dad, and seriously, he can't do this. It'd break him. He's done being the Chosen One." he said.
"W-well." said Quinn, shivering, "Then we have to do it. The five of us."
Once again Albus shook his head. "Uncle Ron wouldn't let Rose go. And Scorpius wouldn't come without her. It's up to us. We are the ones that have to stop them. And we already know where to start. First things first, they don't really have the Elder Wand. Luke is still its master."
"How do we know that for sure?" Tyler said, annoyed. "He's a git. He'd definetely give it to them."
"Just because he kissed some other dude doesn't make him a betrayal, Tyler." said Quinn. "Besides, he'd die as well."
"Unless he became a Death Eater, right? Like Ervin?" said Albus. "Death Eaters won't get killed by their own kind." He said.
"Okay. Well, where do we start?" Tyler asked.
Albus knew how to answer. "You-Know-Who's old wand would be used. Actually, anything he's touched. That being, his wand, that memorial to all the people that have died, and they definitely made one when.. When.. When your parents got killed." Albus said. "Snape said Horcruxes are made by killing people. I don't know what exactly happens, but that's one thing to go on. Furtherm-" Albus started, when he got interrupted by Harry.
"We're here! We've all survived!" He said, happily. Lorcan jumped from behind Harry and ran towards the group.
He made a leap and jumped towards Lily. Then, to the family's surprise, he kissed her. Deeply. When they broke off, Lily was smiling. "We're okay." She said.
Each smaller family united and Harry - who did look very dirty - announced it would take a while before they could return to the Burrow, as the Death Eaters were expecting them. Albus continued talking. "Quinn, Tyler, we have to go. As soon as possible." He said, and the others agreed.
Ron then turned to the family. "I've called Rosmerta. She'll be here soon." He said.
Hermione raised a brow. "Since when do you have Rosmerta's number and since when does she have a phone?" She asked.
"She has had a phone for long and I got her number before we were together."
Hermione scoffed. "You didn't even have a phone back then."
"I had a home phone. I called Harry on it once."
Harry shook his head. "Keep me out of this, Mate." He said, and Ginny rolled her eyes.
"Al," Quinn said, "Do you think Harry'd be okay with us going?" She asked.
Albus shook his head. "No. But that's why we're sneaking out. It's the only way." He said.
"Al. What if it takes longer than the holidays? Will we go to school?" Tyler asked.
"No. I'll leave a letter for my dad. He'll think of something." Albus said.
"But where will we be staying? We'll have to travel to get all the Horcruxes, right? Besides, with what are we going to kill them?" Quinn asked.
"Guys I don't know everything." Said Albus.
After a little while Madam Rosmerta from the Three Broomsticks let them inside, and made them Butterbeer to warm up a little. Albus, Quinn and Tyler discussed how they would sneak out, and the last bits. Albus said that they shouldn't stay in Hotels because that'd be too easy to detect, and they didn't want to be captured. Also, in their opinion the Ministry could be taken over any minute. When it was nearly midnight Harry announced that he would go and check if they were good to go. When he returned, they were. So, the group all returned through the Chimney, Quinn on a Converse and a sock, because she just didn't care anymore. Once arrived, Quinn and Tyler followed Albus to his room. He started packing a bag when someone knocked on the door.
"Albus? Tyler? Quinn?" It was Hermione. She opened the door. "I know what you're up to. And even though I don't want to encourage you, I know if I tried everything to keep you here, it'd still be useless. So I have the old beaded bag I had with me when we went hunting Horcruxes. Inside are useful books, a tent, some potions, and I packed some travelling foods for you." She said. She handed Albus a small purple beaded bag. He filled it with some clothes and other necessities, then he thanked his Aunt.
He wrote a letter to his father:
Dad,
I know you won't approve, but the three of us have to stop the New Dark Lord. Don't look for us, we can do this. I love you, Mum, James, Lily, and all the others. Contact Oliver Wood for us, as we have no idea how long it might take.
Albus, Quinn and Tyler.
He folded it and put it in a little envelope which he placed on his bed. Then, they waited for the entire Burrow to go quiet. When that happened, they tip-toed downstairs, cursing at the creaking fifth, ninth, and twelfth steps. The front door creaked more than usual, probably just to screw with them. But, they reached the garden, where they grabbed three brooms, including Quinn's own broom. They flew up, and headed for Malfoy Manor. Everything always happened at Malfoy Manor.
It was cold, but the three were smart enough to dress in a sweater. It took them quite some time to reach the famous manor, and when they did, it was daytime already. They landed softly, and shrunk the brooms.
"Now what?" Tyler asked. Albus looked at the small exit that was above the cellar downstairs in the manor. He'd been at the manor far too often. The small exit had a lock, with a chain on it and everything, but Albus thought it wouldn't be too hard to break them.
"We enter through there. Then, we can get upstairs and look ar-"
Someone interrupted them. "Little Potter. You did as we hoped!"

Hey there!
I hoped you enjoyed my very short chapter. As I said at the beginning I am in Sicily so I won't update often. Also I have to do this on my phone so if you found any typos please tell me.
Leave a comment on what you think, and I hope you have a nice holiday. If you have one, at least.
Love,
Florence
