Avalyn Levisay [Creating the plan]

Avalyn slowly opened her eyes, staying completely still in her bed as her ears perked. The noise that had woken her up filled her ears again, making her sit up. She turned on the light on her nightstand and got out of bed, walking towards her window. As she looked down at the street her eyes widened. Her headmaster and one of her professors were standing underneath her window, nodding her way, letting her know to get down there. Avalyn put on some sweatpants, before sneaking out of her room. She tiptoed past her mom's bedroom and to the hallway outside the apartment.

Avalyn found her way down the stairs and opened the front door, stepping into the warm summer night. ''Avalyn'' Dumbledore spoke as he saw her approach. Avalyn stared at him and slowly nodded. ''Yes, is something wrong?'' Dumbledore shook his head. Avalyn felt relieved as for a moment she had thought that would have the end of her attending Hogwarts. ''Are you all packed?'' Dumbledore asked, making Avalyn look at him with questioning eyes. ''I believe so yes, but my trunk is upstairs-'' Dumbledore nodded towards Snape, who shared a look with Avalyn before walking into the building behind them. ''If you don't mind, I want you to ask to come to Hogwarts with us. we have something important to ask you'' Avalyn frowned at him as he held up his arm, telling her to take hold of it. ''I don't understand'' Avalyn whispered as she took a small step back. She trusted her headmaster, but something about his voice send chills down her spine. ''There is nothing to understand yet, Avalyn. Everything will become clear when we get to Hogwarts'' Avalyn sighed at his words as she slowly reached over and took hold of his arm. A gush of wind made her close her eyes and for a moment she felt like she was suffocating, once air entered her lungs again she opened her eyes, finding herself and Dumbledore in the headmaster's office.

''I'm not feeling well'' Avalyn said as she became lightheaded, she sat herself down on one of the seats in the office. She dropped her head as the feeling became stronger. ''What is the meaning of this?'' McGonagall's voice filled Avalyn's ears, making her sigh in relief. Avalyn raised her head again, finding a glass of water being held in front of her. ''thank you'' Avalyn whispered as she took it from McGonagall's hands. She took a small sip as she looked at the three teachers in front of her. ''I still don't understand. what is going on?'' Avalyn asked as she raised her body completely again. McGonagall turned to look at Dumbledore. ''Really Albus, her?'' Avalyn followed her professor's gaze, waiting for her headmaster to say something along the lines of why she was there. ''She can do it'' Dumbledore spoke softly, Avalyn clenched her jaw as she shook her head. ''Do what?" she questioned as she looked at all three of them. ''Someone tell me what the fuck is going on!'' She exclaimed loudly. Snape turned to her in an abrupt and sudden matter ''Watch your language miss Levisay'' Avalyn glared at Snape. ''Then stop stalling and tell me why I'm here'' She was clear and her voice kept steady throughout the sentence.

''We have some other guest that we need to wait on'' Dumbledore said as he sat down in his chair, Snape and McGonagall on either side of him, staring at her intensely. ''What?'' Avalyn whispered as she heard the door behind her open with a loud noise, Avalyn turned her head and let go of a breath at the people that walked in. Sirius Black was the first to walk through the door, last time she had seen him he had looked a mess, but as of now he looked well put together. He stared at her intensely as he sat down in the chair next to her. 2 other professors followed behind him, though Avalyn had heard they would not be teaching this year. Remus and Mad eye entered the chamber as well, an uneasy feeling filled Avalyn's chest as they all took seats around her.

''It's not anything good is it?'' Avalyn questioned as all the people, except Dumbledore avoided her eyes. ''Avalyn, we need you to keep in mind how much you care for Harry as we talk. Can you do that?'' Dumbledore said softly, waiting for a nod before continuing.

''As you know, last year's circumstances resulted in a certain someone returning, which reignited the war the generation before yours had tried so hard to stop.'' Avalyn took a deep breath as Cedric's lifeless eyes flashed in front of her. ''I remember" She whispered. Dumbledore nodded at her words. ''We all count that Harry will be able to take on The dark lord, but in the case of failure, we need something to fall back on. A plan B'' Dumbledore said softly as Avalyn nodded. ''Plan B being me?'' She questioned, All the people in the room nodded. ''But how? do you expect me to take on the..'' Avalyn fell quiet, not wanting to call out that name, but everyone knew who she was referring to. ''In the case that Harry does not succeed, we need you to do as much harm to the dark lord as you can. The dark lord holds little to no love in his heart, however, there might be one person who he may care about.'' Dumbledore explained, but Avalyn could not fill in the blanks. ''His son'' Snape said softly, making Avalyn look at him in shock. ''Mattheo?'' She asked to hope that she had understood this wrong, but the people around her nodded. ''You want me to hurt Mattheo?'' She questioned Dumbledore shook his head. '' Not hurt'' Sirius took over, as Dumbledore studied Avalyn's face closely. ''Kill'' Avalyn widened her eyes in shock, turning towards the floor to hide it.

''You want me to kill his son?'' She whispered as she slowly raised her head again. Dumbledore nodded at her question, making her take in a deep breath before slowly releasing it. ''It's the only way, Avalyn'' Avalyn placed her hand in front of her lips, rubbing them softly before dropping them onto her lap. ''I have conditions'' She said out, seeing the people around her relax as she agreed to carry their plan out. ''we do too'' Sirius said softly.

''I want a pardon for any damages done while gaining his trust, I also want assurance of me passing this year even if my grades say otherwise'' Everyone turned towards Dumbledore awaiting his answer. He just nodded. ''To get this done you must break any trust or love Harry has for you. Mattheo will never fully trust you if you don't'' Avalyn pressed her lips together as she felt her eyes fill with tears. ''I'll break his heart'' She stated with a slight pitch in her voice, the sadness overtaking her as her shoulder sunk. ''Indeed'' Dumbledore answered as he ignored her tears.

''We will call you in to update us regularly, we need you to talk to us'' Sirius spoke as Avalyn just slowly nodded, picking at her pants as she pushed away her sadness. ''i-'' Avalyn cleared her throat as she raised her eyes to the ceiling, getting rid of her tears. ''I will need to become prefect as well. I need a room for myself to-'' Avalyn stopped herself as she shook her head, she could not believe they had asked her to do this. ''-To gain his trust'' she whispered.

''That is fine'' Dumbledore answered casually. It angered her how easily they had turned to her for this, maybe it was because of her father and his death eater roots or maybe just the fact that she had nothing to lose. ''Why me?'' She whispered softly as the thoughts in her head were running their own course, making them harder to keep to herself. ''Because you love Harry and you have nothing to lose'' Avalyn nodded in realisation.

''Take today and tomorrow to prepare and come up with a plan. We will discuss it tomorrow evening before the other students arrive'' Dumbledore stated as he stood up. ''You are doing a good thing here, Avalyn'' He spoke. Avalyn stared at him as she slowly nodded.

But why didn't it feel like a good thing?

Mattheo Riddle [Creating the plan]

Mattheo stumbled into the living room of the Riddle mansion, the girl he had convinced to come with him giggling as she fell against him. Mattheo smiled as he pulled her closer, but just as he was about to touch her lips her eyes widened. ''Leave'' A voice said from behind Mattheo, sending the girl fleeing from their home. Mattheo sighed as he rolled his eyes, before slowly turning around. ''Father'' He spoke softly as he bowed his head slightly. ''Mother'' he continued as he raised his head again. ''Are you done screwing around?'' his mother asked him as she sat on one of the couches. ''I was just getting to that part, but you chased her off'' Mattheo stated as he sat down on one of the chairs in front of Bellatrix.

Two other figures stumbled in, laughing loudly before it slowly died down. The two boys froze at the sight of the dark lord. They both bowed their head. ''Join us'' The dark lord said as he sat down as well as the two boys sitting on the chairs next to Mattheo. It had always been that way, Mattheo would always be joined by his two most loyal friends. ''We have an assignment'' The dark lord stated as he watched his son squeeze his eyes together before slowly nodding.

''As you may know, I am still getting stronger. However, we have received word that Harry is being trained so he may attack before I have my strength back'' Lorenzo and Theo shared a look as Mattheo kept his eyes on his father. ''I need something that will destabilise him. Or rather: someone'' Mattheo took in a deep breath as he let himself fall back against the chair.

''Like who?'' he questioned his parents. ''Someone close to him, someone who has been with him for a long time'' The three boys seemed to think about it. ''Avalyn'' Lorenzo whispered as he raised his head. Mattheo bit his lip in thought as he slowly nodded. ''That could actually work'' The dark lord seemed intrigued as it was a name he had not heard before.

Mattheo seemed to notice his Fathers questioning yet interested face. ''Harry and Avalyn have been friends since first year, however, everyone knows they are in love with each other, only thing is Harry has never had the balls to openly and actively pursue her'' Mattheo explained as he tapped his fingers against the armrest of the chair, awaiting his father's approval. The dark lord nodded. ''Perfect'' He said as he let his eyes travel over the three boys. ''And you will help him of course'' He directed towards the two boys sitting next to his son. The two slowly looked up with a small nod. ''I do however need to ask for a pardon'' Mattheo was careful with his words as he did not want to set his mother or father off.

''A pardon?'' His father asked in a cold tone, making Mattheo look away. ''I will have to pursue Avalyn Levisay'' He spoke softly, watching as his father's expression dropped. ''Levisay?'' He spat the name like it was venom on his tongue, the face of Cyrus Levisay still carved into his brain. ''She has-'' Mattheo debated his next words, before sighing. ''Tainted blood'' Bellatrix shook her head. ''There must be a better choice'' ''It's either that or the mud blood'' Theodore blurted out, his eyes widening as Bellatrix send him a harsh glare, her hand wrapping around her wand, making Theo regret the words and tone he had chosen to use. ''Bellatrix'' The dark lord said with a warning gaze. ''We will make sure you get a pardon'' The dark lord Promised his son.

''But only once you've killed her'' He stated, watching his son gave him a short nod. ''Dismissed'' Mattheo and his friends stood up immediately, wishing to leave the tense energy as fast as they could. The three Slytherins made their way to Mattheo's room, closing the door behind them. Theodore and Lorenzo watched as Mattheo sat down on his bed, shrugging as he caught their gazes. ''What?'' he asked casually as he reached into his jacket pocket for a cigarette.

''Kill Avalyn Levisay?'' Lorenzo finally spoke. ''Are you sure you're up for that? Kill someone?'' Theodore asked as he sat down next to Mattheo, lighting a cigarette of his own. ''I barely know her'' Lorenzo rolled his eyes at his friend. ''But you will. Obviously, you are going to get to know her'' Mattheo inhaled some smoke and blew it out softly. ''It will be fine. It might even be a bit of fun'' He smirked at his friends.

''Hows that?'' Lorenzo asked as he took a seat in a chair in front of them. Mattheo smiled at him and shrugged. ''Haven't had her yet'' Mattheo's friends smiled at him as they shook their heads. ''Getting with the golden girl. Exciting'' Theodore stated as he let out a small snicker.

The three friends shared a soft laugh as they thought about it.

Harry would not know what hit him.
