Today was the day Harry and I will be going with Dumbledore to find a horcrux. I am afraid something bad might happen. Draco finished mending the vanishing cabinet. I don't what I am going to do. I have to Harry. I have to tell Harry the truth. Even if he'll hate me forever. At least he'll know the truth. Harry and I were in the courtyard, I knew Harry was a bit nervous. I didn't want to make his day worst, but I had to tell him.
"Harry?" I asked.
"Yeah, Ember?" Harry looked at me.
"You know that no matter happens, I'll always be loyal to you right? You're my best friend, since first year. I'd never do anything to hurt you on purpose."
Harry nodded, "I know. I'm sorry for the things I made you go through, especially in the past two years. I know you would never turn your back on me."
"I do the things I do to protect everyone I care about. You, Hermione, Ron, Harmony, the Weasleys." I said. "I'd lay my life down for you guys. I know I'm his daughter, but I'm not his. He's not family. He's not blood. You are, Harry." I looked at him and meant every word I said. "You, Dumbledore, Hermione, Ron, Fred, George, Ginny, Luna, Remus, everyone of you."
"You're one of the closest things I have to a real family." Harry said to me.
"I promise that every choice I make is to protect you." I said slowly.
Harry gave me a weird look. "What's wrong, Ember?"
"You'll hate me forever for this." I said, "I only did it because I didn't have a choice. I did it because the Order told me to. Because Dumbledore told me to."
"If Dumbledore told you to do it then why would I hate you?" Harry questioned. "It must of been something that would help us defeat you know who."
"If I didn't do it, everyone I care about would get hurt." I said quietly.
"What is it, Ember?" Harry asked a bit panicked.
I rolled my left sleeve up and took the concealing charm off of it. "I'm sorry."
Harry's eyes widen. "You're.... You're one of them."
"Only because Dumbledore want to use me as a spy. You know who threatened to hurt Harmony and the Weasleys and Grangers." I said. "The Order wanted another person to help them learn more about his plans."
"Since when?" Harry asked.
"Summer."
Harry frowned, "and you're just now telling me?!"
"I was afraid you'd hate me."
"How could you do this, Ember?!" He questioned. "Who knows about this?!"
"The Order. Molly, Arthur, Remus, Tonks, Kingsley, Mad Eye, Dumbledore, Snape, McGonagall, Bill, Fleur, George."
"And you didn't bother to tell me?"
"Dumbledore made me swear not to tell you." I said.
"You're not going with me to find the other horcruxes."
"Harry-"
"It's done." Harry said and stood up.
I couldn't say anything else because Hermione and Ron came over. "Harry. Ember. It's time."
We made our way to the astronomy tower. "Hermione, is the Room of Requirement unplottable?" Harry asked Hermione.
Hermione nodded. "If one wants it to be. Why?"
"It would explain why I thought Malfoy was leaving the castle when he disappeared off the Map. He was going to the Room of Requirement." Harry said he glanced over at me. I knew he saw me disappear off the map as well, he just didn't say anything. Now he knows I was with Draco.
"Of course, and that explains the Vanishing Cabinet as well!" Hermione said.
Ron shook his head. "No. I got an owl from Dad this morning. The one at Borgin & Burke's? It's still there."
"But I'm telling you. I saw it..." Harry trailed off. "What if there are two? Vanishing cabinets."
"What if there are?" Hermione asked.
Harry glanced at me again. "I don't know..." I am in so much trouble with Harry.
"Good luck, mate." Ron pat Harry and I on the back.
"I don't need luck. I'll be with Dumbledore." Harry said.
In silence, Harry and I went to the top of the astronomy tower. We heard voices, Snape and Dumbledore. "Have you ever considered that you ask too much?" Snape asked. "That you take too much for granted? Has it ever crossed your brilliant mind that I don't want to do this anymore?"
"Whether it has or hasn't is irrelevant. I will not negotiate this with you, Severus. You agreed. There's nothing more to discuss." Dumbledore said to Snape. Agreed to what? Harry and I reached the top of the stairs and Snape left with a scowl on his face. Dumbledore smiled. "Harry. You need a shave, my friend. At times I forget how much you've grown. At times I still see the small boy from the cupboard. Forgive my mawkishness, Harry. I am an old man."
"You look the same to me, sir." Harry said.
"Like your mother, you are unfailingly kind." But can be as stubborn as hell. "A trait people never fail to undervalue. I'm afraid. The place to which we journey tonight is exceedingly dangerous. I promised that you both could accompany me and I stand by that promise. But there is a condition: You must obey any command I give you - without question."
Harry and I nodded. "Yes, sir."
"Understand what I'm saying. Should I tell you to hide, you must hide. Should I tell you to run, you will run. And should I tell you to abandon me and save yourselves... You will do so." Both Harry and I frowned. I don't want to leave him behind. "Your word. Ember. Harry."
We nodded. "My word."
Dumbledore held his arm out. "Take my arm."
Harry gave Dumbledore a weird look. "Sir, I thought one couldn't Apparate within Hogwarts."
Dumbledore had a small, barely noticeable smile on his face. "Being me has its privileges." Harry and I grabbed his arm and he apperated us away.
