Memories Made in the Rain
Disclaimer: sry folks I know ive been forgetting this but these characters do NOT belong to me. So don't sue me! I love you! lol
Voldemort's penetrating eyes and merciless grin glared down at Remus. Leigh was completely helpless, she was conscious, but barely.
"Maybe it would be better if she wasn't." Remus thought to himself halfheartedly.
She was suspended two feet above the ground, her hands bound magically behind her back, and she was fighting to control her sobbing. "So this was torture?" she thought. She was breathing heavy because of her corset.
"He's torturing me. I have to beat him at his own game." Remus thought once more.
Voldemort cackled wildly, "You can't beat me!"
Remus was wide-eyed. Had he said that out loud?
"I can read your thoughts boy. Best not to think anything important. Especially the one about your conscious lover."
Remus tried not to reveal the terror in his eyes, or in his voice. He failed tremendously when he desperately and dangerously said, "Leave her out of this!" He knew he was no match for this evil person.
Voldemort exposed a toothy grin, faking a thoughtful look, and said, "Hmm. Let me think." There was a pause, then, "NO!"
With that Voldemort had flicked his wand, spun Leigh around and body slammed her against the ground. She screamed as something made a nasty crunch. Her ankle. Now she was incapable of escape. On foot anyway. Her dresses lay in a disheveled mess all around her small frame, her hair was astray and falling down from its magnificent up-do.
Remus was horrified at the sound and her scream but even more so when he shouted out to her, "Leigh!"
"Oh.? Leigh, now is it?"
"Leave her alone!" Remus threatened dangerously.
"I love you Remus." Leigh whispered hoarsely, knowing in the back of her mind it was all over.
Voldemort laughed viciously again. "She doesn't love you. She's a mudblood. She doesn't know how to love. And you. You are a werewolf. A freak! You don't know love either." Voldemort's shrieks made Remus ill. "She doesn't love you."
Leigh was crying, hysterical almost. Voldemort grabbed her by her hair and yanked her up. "What ever is the matter Leigh dearest?" He mocked her and stroked her cheek viciously, leaving a thin line of blood where his nail scratched her. Leigh pulled her face away.
Leigh was only able to mouth the words, "I love you."
Remus silently replied, also mouthing the words, "I love you too."
Voldemort took up his wand, pointed it at Remus, then switched it to Leigh and shouted, "Imperio." Then, "Avada Kedvra!"
There was a flash of sickening green light, and she was gone. Forever. His first and only love. His fiancé. His future wife. Gone. Torn from life and his. Forever gone.
"And now! You! You pathetic excuse of a wizard!" he directed his wand at Remus.
Voldemort spoke words. Remus didn't hear them. There was a flash of light once more. Remus didn't see it. Nothing mattered to him now that Leigh was gone, not even his own life.
Everything went black.
