THE MASTER OF DEATH
CHAPTER 1 – PROLOGUE: HOW IT ALL BEGAN
It was like he was in a dreamless sleep, his soul being carried in a wisp of smoke. When he opened his eyes, he saw himself lying on a table on a pristine King's Cross station with memories not his own flowing through his mind. As he was adjusting to the memories of Tom Riddle till that Halloween night of 1981, he saw a hooded figure near him. As he looked at where the figure would contain his eyes, long forgotten memories of his previous lives as SALAZAR SLYTHERIN, IGNOTUS PEVERELL and COUNT DRACULA came to his mind." The veil from astral plane has been lifted master", came from the figure.
He saw himself as Salazar, teaching at Hogwarts and the murder and torture of his wife by muggles. He experienced the rage as he slaughtered that entire village for the crimes of a muggle. His views about teaching magic to the muggleborns began changing; he was labeled a dark lord by Gryffindor and the mind of his friend Rowena poisoned .He was banished from the castle, his own family manor by the other founders. He began preaching that magic should be hidden i.e. only taught to magical families or those who chose magic over their muggle families.
His reputation as parselmouth was tarnished and was labeled a dark art. The teachings of his that he learnt though his travels, all were classified illegal. The arts requiring sacrifices to the three goddesses of old religion were labeled dark. His works were destroyed and his rage grew, his ex-pupils of Slytherin house were being labeled evil due to being taught by him. In the end, his only salvation was the Chamber of Secrets where he left his basilisk to guard his home if ever attacked by mudbloods or filthy muggles.
As Ignotus, he saw himself and his brothers fleeing from the killings of muggles and the mudblood families who claimed the sorcerers to be offspring of Satan. They met with death after they were burned at pyre with another chance at life offered. He and his brothers were gifted with the hallows after they won their bet upon the feat of a great magic in the afterlife, necromantic ritual of old religion.
He and his brothers were promised that only one of them if they ever conquered all the hallows in their future lives, they would forever gain magics of these relics and considered the master of death.
In his life as Dracula, he saw the state of magical beings lesser than ever. Killings of magical races were more than ever before. He gained the power to be a greater vampire after saving live of an ancient vampire. He used his newfound powers to slaughter those who opposed the magic users and to further his clans.
When he awoke with all the knowledge and power, he asked death as its master how to avenge his previous lives. Now he was able to see the manipulations of Dumbledore, Weasley's jealousy was ever more clear to him as well as those moments when Granger got agitated if he was able to do anything better than her. Why Lupin never visited him nor even contacted him before his third year? The veil of compulsions placed on him when his parents were murdered was lifted and the times when he was tested as a weapon to fulfill the prophecy were clearer. How Dumbledore knew everything about him through his machinations and reports of his ex-friends became known to him.
Death reported that as its master he could either go back to his body with his memories of previous lives along with of Voldemort with him or he could be reborn with all memories in his mind at any time in past to any of his chosen parents.
As master of death, he was not immortal but the memories and experiences of his previous lives will forever be available to him.
He decided to be born as an elder brother to Sirius Black in year 1951 to further the agenda of dark creatures, establish equality among magicals by eradicating the muggles using their own sciences to spread magical epidemics throughout the world at once.
