Regulus loved lightning. He never used to crawl under his covers when a rainstorm occurred. He would just sit there, watching the sky light up and then go completely dark in less of a second. He used to watch it happen until the rainstorm stopped. He would be up for hours, until his mother came in and scolded him to get back into bed. To Regulus it was fun, it gave him the sense of home. Lightning was powerful, yet controlled. It was amazing how much power it held. However, it was the total opposite of a Death Eater. One that held too much power, and that could kill the whole world with a flick of one's wand.

"Avada Kedavra!" Regulus pointed his wand at the Carina Pince. She fell helpless to the floor. Clutching her chest, and saying one last word before death overtook her.

"Love." she said in a raspy voice. Her eyelids closed and her body went limp.

Regulus watched as the woman just lied there, speaking that one last word. She wasn't that old maybe around her thirties, but she loved had brown hair, and her bangs covered her eyes. Yet, all that mattered to her was love. Love, was what held this world together.

Greyback came behind Regulus, and steered him away from the body.

"C'mon, Regulus. You're a big boy now," Greyback sneered. "You don't need someone to help you during death, do you?" the way he said 'death,' sounded like it was something fun. Something that everybody likes.

Regulus shook his head, and stepped away from Greyback,

"I'm fine." Regulus snapped.

"No need to get mad, seems like Mother Nature is mad enough." Greyback pointed to the sky, which was filled with dark, menacing clouds.

"BOOM!" thunder sounded. Greyback flinched, as he started to walk away.

"You coming, Reg? I reckon, you don't want to be out in this storm, do you?" Regulus tried hard to suppress the smile from coming to his lips. Thunder meant lightning.

"I'll come soon, I have a cave where I can hangout." Regulus said, still looking up at the sky.

"Whatever you say." Greyback ran towards the woods, to beat the rain.

Regulus looked up at the sky, wondering if there would be lightning. Suddenly, there was a big flash in the sky. Regulus made out the faint outline of the lightning strike. A big bolt of power lighting up the whole sky.

He got to the cave, and sat down by the entrance. Looking up at the sky, Regulus wondered what Sirius was doing at the moment. He wondered if during the storm, if Sirius thought about him. Sirius knew that about Regulus' love for lightning. Sirius always said to Regulus that he would become more powerful than lightning. Regulus hoped that becoming a Death Eater was more powerful than lightning.

Lightning flashed again in the sky, and Regulus' eyes flickered with excitement. Ran started to pour, the rain poured heavily. Regulus stepped outside, having the rain soak him. For that moment, Regulus felt powerful. He felt he could do something. He felt one with nature, one with lightning.

As lightning flashed again, a smile crept on Regulus' face. He now understood what power meant.
