I apperated back to Grimmauld Place. No one was out. They must have been eating dinner.
I snuck up the stairs as quietly as I could. I took off my cloak. I put on my jacket that had once been my dad's. I grabbed the photo of my dad, Remus, and me at the table. I folded it and put it into my pocket.
"Lily?" A voice said I turned to see Hermione. She took one look at me. "What's wrong?" She said frantically.
"He has got Teddy. He killed Andromeda, I have until 7:30 to get to Malfoy Manor." I said pulling out the note and showing her.
"Ok let's go rally the troops." She said,
"Hermione no. I have to do this. He wants me. No one else." I said.
"This is a suicide mission Lily." Hermione said.
"Exactly why I needed to do it myself." I said digging through my trunk. I found the notes from my dad. I shoved them into my pocket.
"Lily you can't." She said.
"I have too. I promised." I said.
"Ok, what's your plan?" She asked.
"I go alone. I offer myself instead. I see if I can get him to make an unbreakable vow with me." I said.
"An unbreakable vow? Why would he do that?" Hermione asked.
"Because I will become a perfect little death eater, I won't contact the Order, in return, he never goes near Teddy." I said simply.
"Lily that's...." She started but stopped.
"Don't." I said. "You guys cannot come for me. That is what he is wanting. You can't." I said. I looked at the time 7:20. "Hermione, I have to go." I said. She nodded and hugged me
"Tell George I love him?" I asked, she nodded. "Tell only who needs to know about this. Let the others think I defected or something. You know who needs to know the truth and who does not." I said.
"Got it." She said.
"I will be sending Teddy to the park across the way. Meet him there please." I said. She hugged me one last time.
"Thank you." I said.
I walked out and apparted away to Malfoy Manor. I held up the letter Voldemort left for me, the gates opened. I walked closer and the doors opened. It was dark inside besides one light. I followed the light.
I pushed open the door to see Teddy, 2-month-old Teddy in a cage playing with blocks.
"Teddy!" I said running to the cage. I touched it but was sent back with a shock.
"There is a field around it." A voice said. I crawled back to the cage.
"It's ok Teddy, I am here." I smiled.
"Yes, you are." Voldemort said.
