Laugh
Screams--thick with pain, heavy with fear, reeking of despair—clogged the air. Bodies twisted painfully, whithering on the floor as if trying to escape the pain that simple word—Crucio--caused them. The pain that had them wishing for death, for freedom from this hell.
Wide, black eyes, dancing with insanity and malicious amusement, bore into them as Bellatrix laughed, smirking at the muggles that littered the floor in front of her, all screaming in pain and writhing on the floor, trying in vain to escape the pain she caused them.
Her laugh—dark, cold and insane—brought flinches from the mass of people at her feet.
Not a second later, the screams stopped with a flash of green light.
The laughter, however, continued well into the night.
