{Chapter 10 ~ Six Out of Seven}
I reached under to take the Remembrall and grabbed it. Once I had gotten it fully out, I looked at it properly in the light. I stared at it in awe and felt a sudden rush of happiness. I had found the first item that we need. I rushed to all the way to The Burrow to tell Ron I had fond our first item. I found him in his bedroom, but he had trashed the place. Everything was toppled over or had fallen down. All his clothes were out of his wardrobe and his bed was a mess.
"Ron?" I asked cautiously.
"Yeah? Who is it?" Ron asked, as he ducked his head up from under the bed. "Oh, hey Harry. What brings you here? I can't find that stupid Deluminator," he muttered.
"I found the first item. Neville's Remembrall!" I exclaimed happily.
"Cool," he said, not really listening.
"Ron!" I shook him hard, "Listen, we just need six other items, then we can finally find my father's book and save Ginny from that curse."
"Found it!" Ron exclaimed, holding the Deluminator up in the as if he had just won the Quidditch Cup.
"Cool, let's go and find Hermione," I said as I dragged him along out of his room.

We were just walking out of The Burrow when something white hit me in the face.
"Harry, look! It's an envelope, should we open it?" he asked as he passed it to me.
"Well what else can we do with it?"
Ron shrugged his shoulders and watched me tear open the top part. I pull a note out and read it quickly, it said;
To Harry, From Ginny
Don't worry, your precious Loony Lovegood is safe. She won't be hurt or tortured. For now.
Ginny
"Luna's in big trouble," I tremble. "We have to rescue her, now, it's more important than ever."
"Don't worry, I'm sure Hermione's found the Time Turner anyway. Come on," Ron reassured me.
We Apparated to the Hogwarts corridors and set off to look for Hermione. We figured she'd be with Professor McGonagall, if not, the library.
"I'm not stepping foot in that library ever again," Ron was complaining about how the library hurt his brain.
"Hermione is gonna kill you," I laugh back. "Stop, I hear voices, shhhh."
We slowly tiptoed towards the voices and tried to make out what they were saying.
"It's Hermione," Ron whispered.
"Don't worry about me, I'll be fine. Remember when I had it a few years ago? It wasn't bad, and I was only in my third year at Hogwarts," Hermione said.
"Alright, but-" Professor McGonagall started.
"-be careful, I know."
Hermione came bouncing out of the classroom with a big grin on her face.
"Got it! Have you guys got the other objects?" she asked excitedly.
"Yep, Harry's got the Remembrall and I've got my Deluminator," Ron said.
"Where are we going to store all them though? There are seven objects in total, we can't just carry them with us everywhere. We have to put them in a safe place where nobody will find them," Hermione questioned.
"Who knows," Ron answered grumpily.
"I know! Remember that beaded handbag I had last year? The one that I casted an Undetectable Extension Charm on? We can use that!" Hermione exclaimed.
"Hermione knows," Ron sighed, answering his own question.
"Awesome, where is it?" I asked.
"It's in my room, I'm going to go get it. Meanwhile, you boys some more items. I'll meet you in the a Gryffindor Common Room," she said as she ran off.
"Okay, you go get a beater's bat and snitch while I try and find a Planet-Pocket Watch," I instructed.
"Where are you going to find that?"
"I think Dumbledore used to have one, he must've passed it down to someone in his will when he died," I thought aloud. "Someone close to him."
"Aberforth!" Ron shouted.
"Yes!! Great job Ron, meet you back at the Gryffindor Common Room."
I ran over to the painting I could enter to Hogsmead and hoisted myself up, ducking my head. My feet echoed on the cold, damp floor as I walked along to the other end of the tunnel.
"Aberforth? Hello? Is there anyone here?" I called, climbing out carefully.
"Ah, Harry Potter. Well, well, well, what brings you here once again?" he asked in a gravelly voice.
"I've come to ask a favour," I asked. "Do you have a Planet-Pocket Watch that Dumbledore gave to you in his will?"
"Yes in fact I do," he answered.
"May I have it? I promise I'll return it to you as soon as I can," I crossed my fingers behind my back.
"Hmm," he stroke his beard thinking. "Alright, please take good care of it. I shall not ask any questions, but whatever you're doing, it's probably going to save us all from death anyway."
"Thank you so much," I said as he gave me Albus Dumbledore's Planet-Pocket Watch.

Hermione, Ron and I all put our items we had gathered on the table in front of us. Hermione carefully tipped out everything that was already in her handbag. Once it was finally empty she placed each item into the bag.
"One, two, three, four, five, six and........where's the last item? The Clankers?" she asked looking up at us.
"Clankers? Where are we going to get them from?" Ron panicked.
"They can't be that hard to find," I said hopefully. "Hermione?"
She sighed, "The only pair I know of, is at Gringotts Bank."
