OMG HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS 7-21-07!!!!!

This chappie is dedicated to cylobaby b/c she is the only one who reviewed.

"I have called you here today," Lord Voldemort said in a deadly calm, high-pitched voice as his Death Eaters appeared, "to test your loyalty."

"It wasn't me, I swear!" said a newly-recruited Slytherin.

"I didn't say it was anyone," The Dark Lord snapped. "Follow me," he ordered. They exited the dark, damp passageway into…

"Hogwarts?"

"Yes, Bella, Hogwarts…"Lord Voldemort answered, "are you questioning my decisions?"

"No!" she answered quickly and began bowing at his feet. Other Death Eaters joined in. Lord Voldemort led his evil minions down a long cream-colored stone corridor.

"To prove your loyalty…you must open… the Evil Locker of Doom!!! Once you have done so, you may leave. Make a line!"

The Death Eaters hurriedly formed a line in front of locker 713. Bellatrix was first.

"My Lord, what is the combination?" she asked humbly.

"Anything that comes to mind." He replied quietly.

She spun the lock expertly. It opened. She smiled slightly and aparated away because Voldemort had taken down the wards. Rodolphus randomly spun the lock. Pettigrew leaned over to try to see if there was some trick to opening it or if something special was inside. It was empty when Rodolphus opened it. Pettigrew wanted to get this over with, since he war obviously loyal. One by one, the Death Eaters tediously opened the locker. Pettigrew thought this was one of the strangest tests he had ever seen. Finally, there were only two Death Eaters left. Pettigrew and Snape. Because the Death Eater's are not good with lines, the two were equidistance away from the locker.

"You two! I knew one of you betrayed me. One will aparate away freely. The other… you shall find out. Who goes first?" demanded Voldemort.

"I'll go fist, my lord." Snape volunteered. Pettigrew thought this was brave of him because he had, after all, sided with Dumbledore. Then he realized he did not want to see what Voldemort was going to do to traitors.

"No, I'll go first." He retorted.

"That's ok, I will."

"No, I will."

"No, I will."

"No, I will!"

"No, you will! I insist!" Snape said coolly as he gestured toward the locker.

"Oh, don't try that! You're going first!" Pettigrew almost yelled.

Snape smirked slightly to himself and stepped toward the Evil Locker of Doom. He spun the lock in the dreaded locker, not looking afraid at all. Snape spinning the lock ever so slowly was enough to drive Pettigrew insane. He thought Snape was daft until he heard the click of a locker opening. He whirled around.

"Ha." Snape said with a smirk and aparated away.

"PETTIGREW! YOU HAVE BETRAYED ME!" Voldemort screamed in his piccolo voice.

"NO! No, I swear I haven't!' he stammered as he quickly stepped to the locker. It didn't open when he tried it once. He pushed the opener-thing a few times, panicking. 'When had he betrayed Voldemort? Never! It must've been Snape…' he thought, appalled.

"Well?" Voldemort demanded, tapping his foot impatiently. (A/N Cylobaby says tapping his Prada shoes. Lol).

"Er-I'm still…still spinning a combination…"

"You know it's only three numbers."

"Oh. Right. Yes. I just- uh- forgot how they worked." He lied.

Voldemort strode over and shoved him out of the way.

"Like this." He spun it quickly, not even looking at it, and opened it while giving Pettigrew a death glare.

"Now you try." He motioned toward the locker. Trembling, Pettigrew reached his hand toward the locker (A/N it bit him! jk… anyway) and spun it very slowly.

"Hurry it up! I haven't got all day, I have 6 Slytherins to convert and mark!" Voldemort ordered.

Pettigrew jumped, startled, and then spun the last required number. He pushed the little opener thing. It didn't open.

"PETTIGREW!!" shrieked Voldemort, brandishing his wand at him. "You LIED to me?"

"No! It wasn't me!"

"The Locker never lies!"

"It just did! Snape opened it!"

"Snape is to be trusted! You, however, are NOT!"
