With nothing else to be done, Harry leads the party on into the [Gringotts cart] and to the [Lestranges]' vault, making [Travers] hide out of the way. The cart hits a waterfall, though - [The Thief's Downfall] - and all of their enchantments are removed. [Imperiusing] [Bogrod] again, Harry lets Griphook lead them past a tethered dragon and into the vault, where the door soon seals them in.

The treasures of the [Lestranges]' vault prove to have [Gemino] and [Flagrante] Curses on them, but despite being burned by multiiplying objects Harry manages to spot [Hufflepuff's cup] and grab it, thanks to a [Levicorpus] spell cast by Hermione. The treasures continue to multiply, Griphook grabs [Gryffindor's sword], and without warning the door to the vault opens, and the group spills back out into [Gringotts].

Running, with barely time to think, Harry leads Ron and Hermione onto the back of the guard dragon and cuts its ties. As it begins to fly Hermione casts [gouging spells] onto the rock above, creating space for an escape, and they manage to escape the caverns, flying out over [Diagon Alley] and into the sky.

The [Gringotts] dragon continues to fly, though Harry, Ron, and Hermione have no idea where it's going, and finally it drops down over a lake and they plunge into the water, swimming and then crawling to shore.

Safe under Harry's protective charms, the trio marvels at the new [Horcrux] and wonders what to do next.

Thrust suddenly into Voldemort's mind, Harry watches as the Dark Lord is told of his missing [Horcrux], frantically wonders how Harry ever found out about the items, and plans to visit them to be sure - including the last one, hidden, of course, at [Hogwarts].

Back in the present, Harry finds himself staring into Ron and Hermione's faces, and explains what he's seen of Voldemort's mind: that he knows they're hunting his [Horcruxes], he's leaving to search for them, and they haven't a moment to waste in seeking the final one - at [Hogwarts]. Regretfully, they gather under the [Invisibility Cloak], and depart for [Hogsmeade].

Harry, Ron, and Hermione arrive in [Hogsmeade] only to set off a screaming alarm - a [Caterwauling Charm]. The Death Eaters on guard call [dementors] to come after him, and Harry is left with no choice but to produce a [Patronus], but before he can be caught a voice ushers him into the [Hog's Head Inn]. It is the barman, who claims the Patronus was his, a goat, and wards off the Death Eaters for the time being.

The [Hog's Head] barman enters, and Harry realizes it's Aberforth Dumbledore - [Albus]'s brother, who sent Dobby to rescue them from [Malfoy Manor]. As they eat, Aberforth tries to convince the trio to run away and save themselves, and then tells them of his brother's infatuation with [Grindelwald], and how it led to the death of their sister [Ariana]. Harry, though, insists on trying to get into [Hogwarts], and asks for any help that Aberforth can give.

Aberforth turns to his portrait, and [Ariana], who walks into the distance as Aberforth tells Harry there is only one way now into [Hogwarts]. Then, when Ariana returns, it is with someone else - Neville Longbottom, beyond delight at seeing Harry.
