Harry Potter's Halloween
Scene: Halloween Night, Malfoy Manor, audience chamber
Voldemort took care to order all Death Eaters to Malfoy Manor. He wanted them to bear witness to this no doubt, full proof plan that would spell the end of the Light once and for all. This was sure to be a proud moment for all Death Eaters. He, Voldemort, would proof his power through controlling a hell demon. How much more powerful could one get if he could fulfill such a feat.
"Master," Wormtail, his most faithful servant, wheezed, "everything is ready."
The Dark Lord sneered, "My followers, today will surely be a most memorable day. The day I finally gain what is needed to deal with that Potter brat once and for all. Today will most assuredly mark the beginning of the end for Dumbledore and his band of merry fools!"
With that the group cheered and Voldemort took his place in the required circle. He had already instructed them all on the incantation. He would begin and it would be like a round, said three times, except each of them would begin individually after the person on their left had finished saying it the first time.
"Ortus diabolus tenus ego." Voldemort began, with the person to his left beginning directly after. One by one they fulfilled their part.
Halfway through the circle, the center started to glow with a wicked crimson. It almost appeared to be blood seeping up from the floor. Lucius Malfoy tried hard to mask his dismay at the red staining his carpet. Narcissa would have kittens. The top of a head appeared, rising with the pooling liquid. A masked face soon joined it. It was a very frightening creature to be sure. It appeared human but the face, probably due to the mask, was emotionless and still, which was frightening in and of itself. The demon wore a plain blue shirt and pants combo, and the hair of his mask was a frizzy and wild. Many of the Death Eaters were beginning to doubt their master's sanity at this point in time. He claimed that he would able to control it, but, he also had claimed to be capable of killing Harry Potter, who was (let's be honest) just a boy.
The ritual completed, the figure just stood there, eyes fixed on the Dark Lord, who grinned delightedly, "You look even more evil than I had pictured. I have summoned the perfect minion. According the book, your name is Michael Myers. Well, Michael, I have summoned you for a particularly challenging mission. Do your job well, and you will be quite handsomely rewarded. After all, how many of the damned do you know that get the opportunity to rise again and reek havoc, and best of all, get paid to do it?" The Death Eaters had never seen the Master so gleeful. They just hoped this wasn't a bad idea. "Rodolphus, present our new brother with his gift."
Rodolphus LeStrange looked at the knife his Master had given him, to give the demon. Why would he want to give him a knife and not a wand. But, he didn't dare verbally question.
As he (Rodolphus) walked forward, slowly, to the unmoving entity, Voldemort continued, "Your first task, Myers, is to eliminate one Harry James Potter. You will find him at this point in time, in a castle called Hogwarts."
Michael took the fine knife he was given. The hilt was pure gold and encrusted with many precious gems. A beautiful weapon, to be sure, most likely very expensive. His eyes moved to look directly into Rodolphus' eyes.
Rodolphus shivered, he didn't like that look. "Master…" he tried to call the Dark Lord's attention to him. But, the Dark Lord was already beginning to celebrate what should soon be his victory. Suddenly, Rodolphus wished he hadn't given him the knife.
"You are all now dismissed, while our new friend attends to his duty. I look forward to soon reading of the Boy-Who-Lived's terrible demise." Voldemort turned to leave the room. Neither he or Rodolphus noticed the knife rising into the air.
Bellatrix's bloodcurdling scream echoed through the room, forcing the Dark Lord to turn back around. Bella never screamed like that.
Rodolphus' eyes were opened, staring wide at him in shock and pain. He looked down at the knife pointing just barely out his chest, blood pouring from the wound. The Dark Lord followed the horrified look of his servant as blood began to seep out from between his lips. The knife was pulled out of the chest, through the space of his back between his shoulder blades. The knife had been the only thing keeping the man on his feet, and now without it, he staggered forward, falling to the floor, lifeless.
Voldemort was in shock himself. He was supposed to be his master, Myers was supposed to obey him, not kill his servants.
Bellatrix ran to her husband's still body and cradled his bleeding corpse in her arms. She glared up at the approaching Michael with fire in her grieving eyes, "You MONSTER!" she stood and aimed her wand, forget what the Dark Lord wanted, she had to avenge her husband. "AVADA KEDAVRA!" The green light hit the evil man in the chest, expecting him to drop dead, as was supposed to happen.
Michael just continued to advance, unaffected by the curse. He grabbed her by her neck. Bellatrix's wand dropped from her hand as she fought to free herself.
"MASTER HELP ME!" she shouted in desperation. "HE….." Her next scream was cut off abruptly as the knife was thrust into her abdomen.
The dark soul took a sadistic enjoyment in the blood that ran down the knife and coated his hand.
The Dark Lord finally snapped out of his shock as her eyes rolled back into her head and she was dropped unceremoniously on top of her husband's body. "How dare you! I released from the very bowels of hell, and this is how you repay my kindness! You will pay for your insolence!" Deftly, Voldemort fired a reducto at the knife, shattering it into pieces. He followed up with a petrification spell which sent Myers frozen to the ground. Down but certainly not out. Not wasting any time, he and several others bound him with chains. "Looks like I'll have to keep you as my prisoner until I can control you." he explained, knowing the demon could still hear him. "Lock him in the basement, securely. Make sure he cannot escape." He turned his eyes to the two bodies of the servants who had faced Azkaban for his sake. Maybe, this wouldn't be as easy as he'd thought. Clearly, this demon was of stronger stuff than he'd thought.
AN: Well, we have the first two gruesome murders. I can't make it too explicit though, because we're not allowed to do MA, so I have to keep as M as possible. Please review. Let me know if you find it scary enough. Should Snape have been present? Oh, a vote, who should Michael kill next in his escape of the Malfoy Manor?
Narcissa or Wormtail
