Saraquel:
Following my thoughts down the line of Voldemort transfiguring the 
Real Horcrux!Locket, to look like a fake one.  Should we assume that 
ALL the remaining Horcruxes have been disguised in this way, to look 
like something innocent?  If so, then Hufflepuff's cup could well be 
at Hogwarts – somewhere in the Trophy Room maybe.  The Tom Riddle 
Award for Special Services to the School (nice ironic twist), or 
maybe the Quidditch Cup or the House Cup. Is the trophy room on the 
way to DDs office from the main door?  Or is it one of the objects 
in DDs office – remember that sleight of hand that Voldemort made as 
he was leaving, which Harry interpreted as an attempt to go for his 
wand?  Wouldn't the office of his enemy be a great place to hide his 
Horcrux,  - very significant to Voldemort?  

I know timelines are not helpful here.  Voldemort came back to 
Hogwarts, 10 years after he supposedly managed to get hold of the 
cup.

How does this impact on the Ravenclaw/Gryffindor horcrux?

Dumbledore just said he found the ring in Marvolo's house.  He never 
got to tell Harry the story, was that because he didn't find the 
ring in its real form, and plotwise, telling Harry that vital bit of 
information would have given the game away?

So now I'm chasing, what is the significance of the RAB note if 
Voldemort himself wrote it. And could Harry use the locket as a 
double bluff on Voldemort to serve his purposes. i.e. Harry destroys 
all the Horcruxes, including the locket, but having destroyed the 
Horcrux!Locket, transfigures it back to look like the fake one.  
Goes to Voldemort with fake looking locket and says – Hah, I've 
discovered your secret, now you are mortal, I can kill you.  
Voldemort laughs, thinking that he has fooled Harry into believing 
that there was only one Horcrux and then 

..what?

Now to answer responses to my Powers!Horcrux theory:

Saraquel:
I think I quite agree with you Geoff, I had a rush of blood to the 
head, which, as I said in my last post, in the cold light of day 
doesn't pan out.  However, I do think that there is some mileage in 
the thought that Harry was taking care of Voldemort's powers for him 
whilst he didn't have a body.  Very ironic, but needs thought, and 
may come to nothing.

Saraquel:
Kathy, can I suggest you read through my two posts before the one 
Geoff quoted, you will see that I definitely do *not* think Harry 
has a piece of Voldemort's soul in him :-) Neither, do I think that 
Harry should be doing the most evil magic ever for whatever reason. 
I'm definitely *not* of the camp that Harry has to brush up on his 
AV curse in order to get the better of Voldemort.  I'm a Love Saves 
the Day kinda girl. "No unforgiveable curses from you, Potter!"

Just had another thought, re Valky's idea that Lily was intended to 
be a living Horcrux.  She was in Gryffindor, Head Girl, brilliant 
student – a living example of the perfect Gryffindor.  Anyway 
Horcrux!Lily has always been a bit of a left-field theory, but I 
really do like it!

Saraquel
Still puzzling.
