In the 7th book, I was always wondering what exactly happened between Bellatrix and Hermione in the Malfoy Manor. Here's my version of this untold story. Warning: graphic details, almost rape and much more...

Conversation With Another Woman

She kept her eyes closed firmly. May be if she kept them shut, she would be somewhere else. If she believed in it hard enough, her she would just disappear away from everything. But mostly, she would be free of her.

Her dark eyes were tormenting her nights even before they met. What the people were saying about that woman was, according to Hermione, too sadistic to be true. However, she was slowly and painfully learning that what she heard before was in fact too soft. This woman was the demon itself. She was so dark it was simply impossible to find any kind of light or hope. Her soul was doomed. She was already condemned.

Hermione brought her legs close to her chest. She used all of her willpower to stop herself from crying. She did not want to show weakness to the other witch. She guessed what she thought about weakness. But, more important, she did not want to let her win so easily. She would not surrender to her evilness and give the other woman what she wanted. All she could rely on was the good memories and the power of her mind.

For a slight moment, Hermione thought she would be allowed a break. She did not hear the noise of stilettos hitting the floor, she did not hear her terrifying laugh either. The only two sounds in the room were her own breath and her heartbeat. She kept whispering to herself that she would not give up, that she was strong and that it would be over quickly, that Harry would find a way out of the cellar, that Ron would take her away…

But wishful thinking was not going to be enough.

As soon as she felt point nails digging in her ankle's flesh, she screamed at the top of her lungs. She tried to writhe to make the other woman let go, but her grip was tighter than she expected. There was no way for her to escape.

As she stopped to struggle, she felt the weight of a body fall on her. Panic hit her as she realized there was no way she could move. She was stuck under the most dangerous witch known to the world. She lost control and started to shake uncontrollably. She was entirely under her control. She knew it was the worst thing that could happen. Other wizard and witches have warned her: once she took control of the situation and there was no way for you to escape, that is when she hit a point where she lost her mind and became the most violent. Hermione knew she was over.

In a wave of courage, she opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was her coal and deep black eyes. She could get lost in those eyes. It seems like they were the window to her everlasting black aura. She stared directly in her eyes, making a last effort to intimidate the witch.

It did not work at all. The other woman's response was to laugh loudly. Her blood-red coloured lips got closer to Hermione's hear and she started to whisper.

''Good try dear, but I have seen better. Did you really think that I, Bellatrix Lestrange, would be afraid of a little schoolgirl like you? I have brought down wizard twice your age and ten times more powerful. You can keep your intimidation techniques for someone else sweetie.''

She grabbed Hermione's hair and dragged Hermione to the window. At first all she could see was kilometers of garden. She then saw what she understood was what there was left of a human body.

''You and I sweetie are going to have a conversation. This is what's going t happen if you choose not be a good girl and don't answer. Got it?'

Hermione shook her head rapidly. Whatever Bellatrix wanted to know, Hermione had a feeling it was important and Voldemort would be upset if she didn't find about it. Which also meant that Bellatrix was ready to do whatever it took to get the information.
