A/N: This is my first fic. I wanted a story to torture good ol' Lucius.
Don't ask why I just did ok! And for the disclaimer stuff, I OWN NOTHING
BUT THE STORY LINE!!!!I MAKE NO MONEY FROM THE STORY EITHER!
The cold air made Lucius Malfoy shiver. Quietly he rose and walked toward the window of his study.
He was in high spirits. His wife was no where to be seen, his son was starting his fifth year at Hogwarts so Draco couldn't complain to him about that Potter boy, and of course, Voldemort had returned to power.
For a moment Lucius gazed about his land. He could see everything from here. The green grass, the tall trees and beautiful hills surrounding.
Another breeze played with his light blonde hair. He began to shut the window as a terrible shriek danced upon the air.
Lucius was very shocked. He could have sworn he had heard that voice before. Then it hit him: Narcissa.
He quickly apparated down to the front step of his manor and looked for a sign of were the scream had some from. He saw movement near the courtyard and ran. There was another scream, this time louder. He was getting close.
Lucius stopped. He saw Voldemort standing there with a dagger in his hand. Then he looked over and saw his wife lying on the grass, blood covering her face.
"NARCISSA!!!" Lucius screamed.
Voldemort looked over at him, pulled out his wand and growled "Petrificus Totalus!!"
Lucius couldn't move. He then watched in horror as he saw Voldemort slash at Narcissa with his dagger.
"NO," she screamed, "Lucius!! Help me!!! Please help me!!"
Lucius felt tears build behind his immobile eyes.
Voldemort crouched down and gouged the dagger into her abdomen multiple times, turning the blade as he violently ripped it out again.
She screamed again and again with each fresh wound.
Voldemort stopped. He wanted her to suffer as he died. He then muttered the counter curse to the body bind spell.
Lucius ran straight to Narcissa, but Voldemort stopped him.
"You know this is your fault Lucius," he said as he wiped the dagger clean. "If only you had been more loyal to me perhaps you could have saved her. "Also I will expect more constancy from now on, or else you son will be next."
He turned to curse Voldemort, but he was gone.
Lucius ran to his wife who was writhing in pain.
There was a grisly gash spreading across her face diagonally from beneath her eye to her chin. Her whole front was draped in blood. Lucius looked deep into her sad eyes and said, "It'll be alright, you'll be okay."
"Lucius." blood poured from her mouth like crimson tears. "Lucius I lo--" Narcissa Malfoy's eyes glazed over and she died.
Lucius held her in is arms and wept. It was his fault!! He could have saved her if only he hadn't of been such a coward.
"I love you," he sobbed.
He sat there not knowing what to do.
Anger started building up inside of him. Voldemort should have killed him. It should have been me, he thought. I was the one who Voldemort was angry at! I was the one too cowardly to admit that I was a Death Eater and return to him. Hot tears ran rivers down face.
Lucius then screamed in anguish, he wanted nothing more than his wife to be alive.
"Draco," he whispered to himself. He had forgotten about his son and how he would have to be the one to tell him.
"DAMMIT!" he yelled getting to his feet. "Why did it have to be this way?"
He paused, and then slowly he knew what he had to do.
************************
The musky scent of the night air filled his nostrils as he walked forward. He felt sweat drip down his face. Stopping he removed his mask and wiped his brow.
It is time he thought.
He looked at the figure before him. No wonder he was sweating. Voldemort was after all, someone who shouldn't be toyed with.
Voldemort noticed the decrease of footsteps and stopped.
"Lucius," he started, "why have you stopped? We have yet to reach our destination."
Lucius looked terrified. He was sweating profusely and shaking like there was no tomorrow.
He pulled off the black hooded cloak that hung over his robes.
Voldemort slowly realized what was happening. A crooked grin spread across his snake like face.
"So Lucius you are a coward!" He laughed grimly. "You are leaving the Death Eaters and betraying your master. Though this really doesn't surprise me since you were a bloody fool from the beginning."
"I--," Lucius was cut short by a heavy blow to his jaw. He staggered backward.
Voldemort took this opportunity to hit Lucius again, this time in the stomach.
He watched in pleasure as Lucius retched. Then slowly come back to his senses. Voldemort sneered smugly as Lucius spit blood from his mouth.
Lucius pulled out his wand only to be stopped by the disarming spell uttered only moments before.
The wand flew from his hand and Lucius was launched off the ground. He landed painfully on his leg and heard a terrible CRACK! He moaned at the pain in his leg. He almost vomited when he saw bone protruding from his shin.
Lucius closed his eyes, starting to regret his decision. All thoughts were ripped away from him as he felt himself being lifted by the collar of his robes.
Next he saw ropes flying from Voldemort's wand. They wrapped around his body binding him to a near by tree.
Lucius starred coldly into the eyes of his new nemesis. Knowing what was about to happen he closed his eyes tightly and waited for the inevitable.
"Crucio!"
Agony like nothing Lucius had ever felt coursed through his veins like thousands of jagged knives stabbing at every part of his body. He wanted it to end, a minutes seeming like hours. He could barely hear Voldemort cackling. This is when he realized he was screaming.
When it stopped Lucius' breathing was hash and in short bursts. His head hung limply.
Voldemort grabbed Lucius roughly by the jaw. Lucius' eyes rolled a little as his face was jerked forward.
"I will give you a chance to live if you renounce you decision and if you plead for my forgiveness." Voldemort's cold lifeless voice was hardly noticeable; the blood pounding in Lucius' ears was all he could really take notice of.
Oddly enough Lucius started laughing. Voldemort looked much taken aback when he did this.
"I will never!" Lucius Cried. "I was a 'bloody fool'. And you know why Tom? I joined you." He said this with so much malice that Voldemort was even more stunned than before.
However, Voldemort wasn't shocked for long. His facial expression turned from wide-eyed to livid in seconds. Lucius had never seen the Dark Lord burning with so much ire.
"CRUCIO!!"
This time Lucius didn't howl in pain. He stared directly into Voldemort's eyes as the unbearable pain tore through his being.
It stopped and Lucius slumped into the tree and ropes.
He felt his left arm wretched from where it had been hanging limply. Lucius tried to fight back but he was weakened by the two curses.
Voldemort muttered something and lifted his wand. Heat radiated from it as he held it in front of Lucius. As the heat intensified Lucius' fears did just that. He cringed, not knowing what was going to become of him by the end of this torture.
Voldemort lifted Lucius' sleeve to his elbow. They both stared at the Dark Mark on Lucius' arm.
Lucius watched in horror as the tip of the want was lowered to his pale skin. As the wand made contact his skin instantly burned and melted.
Lucius clenched his teeth together as Voldemort ran the wand around the edge of the tattoo, then moving inwards, pressing deep into the flesh. He writhed in pain as the skin melted and shifted.
In spite of himself he screamed in agony. Voldemort just howled with laughter and started pressing harder.
Soon there was no longer a Dark Mark, a memory now, which had been mutated into hideous burn.
Voldemort was more than pleased with the result of the night and handed Lucius his wand. Then he cut Lucius' bonds and let him fall heavily to the wet grass. Voldemort kicked him hard in the ribs. Snaps of bone polluted the air.
"I am not done with you yet." Then Voldemort kicked Lucius in the head, blood trailed from his blonde hair. "For tonight though, yes." With that Voldemort apparated from the scene leaving Lucius to suffer.
Though Lucius didn't suffer long as he fell unconscious shortly after Voldemort had left.
So what do you think? Please review! Good, bad whatever I just need input!!! Thankee in advance.
Asiubfugio!!!!
