-1Disclaimer: I own nothing! It's all J.K. Rowling's.

Author's Notes: I found part of it, anyway. I had some lovely proposal scenes planned, but I didn't find those. Here's the first installment in the 'Missing Scenes: OoOH and SNiC.'

Missing Scenes

Initiations

"I understand you are quite anxiouss to join my rankss, Luciusss," Voldemort hissed as he looked at the teen before him. Lucius had to repress a shiver and focus on keeping his mind blank. This must have been considered a life or death situation by the ritual, as he could fell the others' skills in Occlumency, however dismal they might be, rushing to his aid.

Of course, my lord, nothing Nothing would give me greater pleasure," Lucius said, bowing as low as humanly possible.

It was apparently good enough, as Voldemort continued down the line. "Ah, Walden," he hissed. "Your father has been a very good Death Eater. Do not disappoint me."

"Yes, my lord," Walden said, feeling a sensation similar to the one Lucius had felt seconds before.

"Now," Voldemort called as he got to the end of the line. "We'll attack a muggle town. We will fight for thirty minutes. Those who come back will be marked and I will be checking wands, and will know if you hide instead of fight. Now go!"

There were multiple pops as the new recruits and those who had suggested them left, apparating to a set of coordinates to begin their attack.

Lucius and Walden both made it back to Voldemort's headquarters relatively unscathed. They were some of the few new recruits that did. Most had been too eager to prove themselves, and tried to duel top Aurors, or high-ranking members of the Order of the Phoenix. As such, many fell.

"Only the best have made it back, I see," Voldemort hissed, entering the room once more. "You shall have the honor of receiving my mark."

Once again, he approached each individual, pulling up their left forearms, touching his wands to each one. As he did so, each new Death Eater screamed in pain, some right away, others managing to delay the inevitable. Soon, he came to Lucius

"Morsmorde," he whispered, tapping his wand on Lucius' arm. Lucius felt unbelievable pain, but he didn't yell out. Voldemort seemed slightly surprised, but immensely pleased as he released Lucius' arm, Lucius having only let an almost silent gasp escape his lips. He stared at his newly marred flesh, wondering why he had been able to withstand the pain. Soon, however, his question was answered when Walden received his mark.

Once again Lucius felt pain, although this time it was much more manageable, as it was only the pain Walden wouldn't be able to stand, divided between eleven people. Luckily, they had warned the others they were being forced to take the mark, so they hopefully got somewhere relatively safe.

Voldemort soon finished. "You are dismissed, except for Lucius and Walden. You two follow me."

The pair glanced at each other hoping they wouldn't be asked about their apparently high pain tolerance, as neither was sure they could make up a believable lie.

"I understand," Voldemort said, turning to face them as they entered. "That one of your young friends from Durmstrang, and later Hogwarts, is quite gifted with potions. Up to Master's level, if my spies are to be believed. Recruit him. Use whatever means necessary. Dismissed."

-----Roughly One Year Later-----

"Ssseverusss Ssnape," Voldemort hissed. "I am glad you have decided to join us tonight." Voldemort liked to word things as if they had a choice. "I've heard great things about your brewing skills. I will be most disappointed if you do not return tonight." He continued down the line before calling the customary raid.

About thirty minutes later, roughly the same number made it back as had the year before. Lucius and Walden were both relieved but fearful to see Severus among them.

Voldemort moved through the recruits, marking them individually. Most howled in pain almost immediately. Some made it almost to the spell's end before making a sound.

Severus watched as Voldemort drew ever closer. He was doing this for Beth, he reminded himself. If it would mean even a slightly increased chance she wouldn't be hurt, any amount of pain was bearable. Voldemort was upon him. He set his wand to Severus' forearm, and hissed the incantation. It hurt more than anything he had ever felt before, but he knew it wasn't as bad as what the others had felt. Voldemort smiled coldly before moving on. Soon, he dismissed all the Death Eaters.

It was done. The group's Death Eater spies had been planted.

-----Order Meeting-----

James shifted nervously in his seat. He was surrounded by his friends, at least, which made the staring from the rest of the Order of the Phoenix slightly more bearable.

"You have been called here today to witness the induction of several new members to the Order of the Phoenix," Dumbledore began without preamble. "James, Lily, Frank, Alice, Sirius, Dorcas, and Remus, please come to the front of the room. These seven will be tested by Fawkes and myself to ensure they are not loyal to the Dark. Then, if there are no objections, they will be made full members of the Order."

Each was taken into a separate room. Dumbledore started with James. "Now James, do you swear your allegiance to the Order, to fight the Dark forces above all others?"

"I so swear it."

Fawkes flew over, landing on James' shoulder. They stared at each other for a moment, before Fawkes seemed to nod and flew back to Dumbledore.

"Thank you, James, please wait in the meeting room." James stood and exited, while Dumbledore moved on to the room Lily was waiting in.

Roughly forty-five minutes later, all seven plus Dumbledore were back in the meeting room. "Are there any objections?" Dumbledore asked the room at large. No one said anything. "Very well. Welcome to the Order of the Phoenix."

Author's Note: Here we go. The next missing scene will be posted with the first chapter of Still Not In Control, which won't be posted before I go back to school, which is Wednesday, (I know, how much does that stink?), because I'm going to be trying to write like mad, and will try to not even log on to the Internet except to get reference material and such.

The other two I've currently got planned are the proposals and why Severus turned spy. Tell me what others you want to see in a review!!!
