The Misleading Unbreakable Vow



The Unbreakable Vow performed at Spinner’s end may have a loophole ignored by most of us and plotted cunningly by The Queen Of Magic- J.K. Rowling. The three conditions related to the Vow were-
1.Snape will watch over Draco as he attempts to fulfill Dark Lord’s wishes
2.He will, to the best of his ability protect Draco from any harm
3.If it seems that Draco will fail, Snape will perform the deed the Dark Lord had
entrusted Draco with

Now, looking closely at the three conditions, it is easily said that he watched over
Draco and to the best of his ability- his dexterix, knowledge of Dark Arts cunningness,
did protect Draco. Looking closely at the third point, though, nowhere it has been mentioned , what the DEED is!! Many would say it is as clear as a solution that the deed was to kill Albus Dumbledore, but I think otherwise. There is a distinct possibility that the deed is not what we are thinking. I believe it could have been-
Bring the Death Eaters to old D’s school.
Simply have him wandless so that when the Death Eaters come, they finish him off because the Dark Lord doubted whether Draco would have been able to perform the Killing Curse.
Now the possible arguments are-
Why did Draco try to kill Dumbledore on numerous instances?
My contradiction is that remember the person who send Lucius Malfoy- well our very own Dumbledore. It could simply have been tactics to revenge for his father’s death
Why did the Death Eaters order Draco to finish old D off?
I believe that this part of the information was told only to the Death Eaters and this was not included in the DEED Draco had to carry out. Even the Dark Lord thought that Draco would not be able to prepare a trap for Dumbledore. Could this count for another big fact that Dumbledore is not Dead, since Snape fulfilled the terms of the Vow, yet never killed Dumbledore.

The usual argument has again been evoked by me by the means of this potion. I am looking forward to all your comments. Till then Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak!
