Okay everybody, this is a plot bunny that has been digging holes in my brain for the last
few days and I need to let it free so here we go, by the way this is a one shot.
Harry stood in shock, frozen under his own invisibility cloak. His mentor and friend Albus Dumbledore, Headmaster of Hogwarts, school of witchcraft and wizardry, was about to die. Snape's dark wand held the poisonous green of the killing curse that had taken the lives of some many unwilling victims. Harry could hear as Dumbledore continued to reason and try persuade Snape to do the right thing.
"Please, Severus… please." Dumbledore's pleads for help fell on supposedly deaf ears as Snape bellowed the name of the dreaded curse. In slow-motion, Harry watched in a mixture of shock and anger as the curse sped towards his mentor.
With a burst of magical prowess that he had scarcely possessed a moment ago, Harry pushed and broke free of freezing charm. He bolted across the astronomy room like the devil himself was on his heels. The boy who lived leapt forward and shoved the aging head master from the path of the curse. He turned in just enough time to give Snape a defiant smirk before the green curse over took him, propelling him off the balcony to the ground below.

Pain, pain and darkness was all he knew. His entire world revolved around these two, all consuming apparitions. It swirled around him, wrapping him in a gentle caress, before crushing him, breaking his very soul. Never leaving, always suffocating and choking him only giving him enough air to continue on in his degraded, agonized existence.
Eventually, things began to change, voice could be heard and things like smell began to return to him. And after what felt like a small eternity in darkness, he opened his eyes.
The first thing Harry noticed was that he was chained to the floor, his shirtless body had been forced into a sitting position, he was resting on his heels, his feet were quickly growing numb. Harry's tired and pained eyes looked around the room in a slow arc. Stone walls and floor was the main decor, a thick steel door rested on the fall wall.
Much to his surprise, the door split down the middle and hissed open, a dark robed figure reeking of evil walked through the door and stopped in front of Harry. The figure stepped towards Harry and locked eyes with him, even though his were hidden under his hood.
"Tell me young one, what do you know of the order?" Harry glared up at the man.
"I refuse to tell you a damn thing," instead of an angry assault, possibly punctuated with a slap, the cloaked man simply chuckled.
"You have a very strong will to deny me what I wish to know, this coupled with the fact that I sense deep strength and anger within you, I believe you could be of some use to me." The man paused and began to pace back and forth in front of Harry.
"I have a proposition for you young one, join me and rule at my side with up most supreme power, with your strength and my tutelage we could be unstoppable!" The cloaked figure spun to look Harry in the eye. The boy who lived looked on in shock, for just a moment, he thought he had caught a glimpse of burning, yellow, red ringed eyes.
"Who are you?!" Harry practically screamed in mount resignation. The man laughed down at him.
"My boy, The call me Exar Kun, ruler of the Sith Empire!"
Fin.
That's it, no more, all done, hope you people enjoyed the trip while it lasted (grins)
