Disclaimer- I don't own Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Hogwarts, ect. The credit for that goes to the awesome J.K. Rowling. I do own Andilynne and Will though.
Prologue-The Inheritance
"My Lord, please. I have ever lived to serve you. Please. I have never failed you before. Give me another chance!" The Death Eater kneeled at the Dark Lord's feet, hooded and cloaked in black.
"This was of importance, Wood. If you are that devoted, you should have succeeded." Voldemort hissed. "But you did not. For that, you will die. Your inheritance will be passed on to a more loyal servant."
"But my Lord! Please. One more chance is all I ask! That inheritance means as much to me as my life! That inheritance-"
"Silence! If it meant that much, you should not have failed! If it meant that much, you should have succeeded in bringing that woman to me! Your inheritance shall be given to a competent Death Eater! Even Wormtail could have brought her to me! You do not deserve it! Now, you will receive what you do deserve!
"My Lord!"
"Avada Kedevra!"
The woman fell to the ground, not a mark on her. "Bellatrix," hissed Voldemort, "Come here."
A woman with heavily hooded eyes, though you could not see them for her hood came forward. "Yes, my Lord?"
"If you can bring that woman to me, you will got Wood's inheritance. I need this woman ALIVE Bella. I know your methods so that is why I'm telling you this. She holds the secret to the prophecy that was lost. But if you fail, you will meet the same fate. Go." Voldemort eyed her as he said this. He knew Bellatrix Lestrange would die before she failed him.
"Yes my Lord. But please, where will I find her? And what is the inheritance?" Bellatrix asked. She wanted, and needed, this information.
"She is at Hogwarts. And you don't need to know what the inheritance is. I can test your loyalty better if you will do this without knowing the details of the inheritance." Voldemort hissed. "Now go! The faster this is done, the better. I want-I NEED to know what that prophecy was."
"Yes master." With that, Bellatrix disappeared.
"If she fails me, that prophecy will never help me. No one else will find her. Or get her here."
Voldemort disappeared into the night.
Hundreds of miles away, Andilynne Wood woke up screaming.
