This fanfic is written for .' 100 Drabbles/Oneshots challenge. I've wanted to do something with Bellatrix and Voldemort so I decided this was the time. This fanfic will consist of random snipets that formed their relationship. I hope you all like it.
Bellatrix hurried up the path of Riddle Manor. She was having her first first lesson today with the Dark Lord. She had only known him a week and was fasinated by the man. He had this aura about him that just radiated pure power. Power was what Bellatrix wanted. She reached the door and recognized the old-fashioned knocker from her visit last week. Rodolphus had brought her because the Dark Lord needed talented witches and wizards. The Dark Lord had appeared thrilled at the prospect of another follower, but of course had to test Bellatrix. She had endured two dreadful curses (which she assumed were unforgiveable) , and was nearly unconsious by the time he was finished with her. The Dark Lord had approved, though and she was here now for her first lesson.
She raised the heavy knocker and it came down with a clatter. Bellatrix nearly jumped when the door opened revealing a house elf. "Who dares put there hands on he-who-must-not-be-named's property." the elf shouted looking up at Bellatrix. She truly was offended not only because the piece of filth before her had spoken so rudely to her, but had also the nerve to refer to the Dark Lord in such a way.
"I am Bellatrix Black, and I would appreciate it if you let me in." She gave the elf an evil glare and it cowered in fear. Someone walked up behind the elf, and kicked it aside.
"No need to be rude to our guest." the Dark Lord said in his slither voice. He opened the door all the way to reveal himself to Bellatrix. "Please come in Miss. Black." Bellatrix curtsied. Rodolphus had already taught her that the Dark Lord required only the highest respect from all of his followers. He nodded and let Bellatrix in. The house was majestic, with its black and green walls it seemed as if it was the Slytherin common room, a place Bellatrix loved. The Dark Lord led her to the parlor and motioned for her to sit. She sat in a large antique black chair directly adjacent to the fireplace in the room.
"Well before we begin would you like to have a drink?" Bellatrix found this quite odd and wondered if it was a test of some sort. The Dark Lord didn't seem like a person who would offer someone a drink, let alone someone he was in charge of.
"No I'm fine" Bellatrix choked out, and shifted in her seat. The chair may have been old and expensive, but it definitely wasn't comfortable. The Dark Lord got up and left the room. He came back with a small green frog in hand. Bellatrix didn't squirm like her sister Narcissa would have. She actually didn't mind snakes or other slimy animals as long as they didn't bother her.
"Bellatrix do you know what an unforgivable curse is?" the Dark Lord asked his voice rising higher as he spoke. Bellatrix nodded she had heard a little about these curses. They were banned illegal, and gave you a one way ticket to Azkaban. "Good." he continued. "You will come to find that when you fight with me you will use them often." Bellatrix gulped she hadn't expected him to teach her such advanced stuff, after all she had only been out of school for about a year.
"Our first curse is the imperius curse. You will use it to get people to do what you want for them." He turned the the frog and shouted "imperio". Bellatrix watched in amazement as the frog danced around the room. "Very useful if you want to have someone hurt themself." he said as he moved the frog close to the fire. "Or get information."
"Next is the cruciatus curse. It is used to bring immense pain to someone. I actually used it on you last week along with the imperius curse." He turned to the frog and muttered "crucio". The frog squirmed and started shaking. Bellatrix remembered this curse it hadn't caused her pain, but something more than that something she couldn't even describe. "Not only is this curse entertaining, but it can be very useful when getting information."
"Finally is the killing curse, which I'm sure you've heard of." Bellatrix nodded slowly. She had found out about it from Rodolphus when he had wanted to kill a man that hit on her at a club. Rodolphus had treatened to kill him, but Bellatrix got in the way and dragged him off. "Avada Kedavra!" the Dark Lord shouted and in a flash of green light the frog lay limb. Bellatrix stared shocked, she could never imagine taking a life, let alone a humans.
"Well then I think that is enough for today." the Dark Lord said as he deposited the remains of the frog into the garbage can. "I'll see you again next week same time, same place." Bellatrix nodded and walked out of the room. She nearly ran out the front door and settled at the tree at the beginning of the path up to the house. She sat and cried. The Dark Lord was a brilliant, but insane man. Killing just to kill. She choked on her tears as she thought of what she was going to have to do for him. Of course he had the access to rule a powerful wizarding world rid of scum. She smiled at the thought of it. It was all she had ever wanted from him.
So what do you think? Love it, hate it. I love reviews, and in order to make this fanfic better I need them to help me make my writing better. :D
