The idea for this came to me at night, when I get my best ideas (: Anyway, it takes place in the summer between OOtP and tH-BP. 'oOo' is a change in point of view.
"Expelliarmus!"
"Crucio!"
"Protego!"
"Avada Ke—"
"Stupefy!"
Lucius Malfoy, the Death Eater Harry'd just stupefied, fell unconscious.
Five hours earlier…
Harry lay in my small bed at the Dursley's, staring at the ceiling. He was sulking over the death of Sirius. Still.
What was the point anymore? What was the point of staying here?
Harry finally decided to leave. He packed my bag full of spare food and extra water. With his wand in his pocket, he pried open the window. He then opened Hedwig's cage, letting her out onto the roof. He slid off of the roof and onto the backyard lawn; Hedwig glided down and landed on his shoulder. He began walking.
Harry didn't know exactly where he was heading. He supposed he'd head to London. But very soon, he was surrounded by scenic nothing. Nothing but waist-high grass and a dead tree a few meters off. He looked up at the starry night sky, seeing a smoke formation that he knew all too well.
The Dark Mark.
From the mouth of theMark flew two black tendrils of smoke that flew straight down and landed on either side of Harry.
"Hedwig! Get out of here!" Harry shouted, drawing his wand. She flew off.
On Harry's right, Lucius Malfoy caught sight of Hedwig, raising his wand.
"Expelliarmus!" Harry screamed, and a red beam of light caught Lucius on the shoulder. He turned to Harry.
"Crucio!"
They continued until Harry knocked Lucius unconscious. Harry turned his wand to the other Death Eater.
"It's just you and me now." Harry growled.
oOo
Jorgan Duran pointed his wand at Potter, trying to keep his hand steady. He was just a trainee and was in no way prepared for a one-on-one with Potter. His mind blanked and he didn't know what to do.
"Expelliarmus!" Potter cast. Jorgan dodged the spell, casting the first spell that popped into his head.
"Diminuendo!"
Harry was thrown back, landing hard on his back among the long grass. The wind was knocked out of him, and his bag and wand fell next to him. His vision became blurry, then everything went black.
oOo
Jorgan was dumbstruck. He didn't even know what that spell did.
Lucius groaned beside him, managing to his feet.
"Where is he?" he demanded.
"I…I don't know. He seems to have disappeared." Jorgan stammered. Fear and anxiety began to rise in him.
Lucius scanned the area. "Come. Let's go back to the manor," Jorgan began to panic.
"The Dark Lord—"
"He doesn't have to know!" Lucius snapped, holding out his arm. "Besides, we'll see Potter again. We always do."
Jorgan nodded, taking his arm. Lucius dissapparated the both of them to Malfoy Manor.
I know it's short, but it's kind of a prologue chapter, you know, to set the stage and get the basic gist of the story. Please review, tell me what you think, I promise that the next chapter will be longer.
