A Journey Through Time
Chapter 9
O's for everything. I managed to squeeze my way back from the board and made my way over to the others to tell them their grades. I had been nominated to go because I was the smallest of the lot.
"We all passed." I said and gave them all their individual grades. They were over the moon and soon we were back in the room toasting and drinking Butterbeer we managed to get from the kitchen.
Since there were no classes that day we spent it partying in our room which was fun…up until I got a familiar pain in my arm. I pulled up the sleeve of my top to reveal the Dark Mark turning black; I was being summoned again.
"Well, here goes nothing." I said as I threw on a cloak. This time James, Lilly, Remus and Sirius came with me to the front gates.
"Come back to us yeah." Lilly said as she hugged me tight, the rest of them gave me similar advice as well as big hugs and in the case of Remus and James, big snogs. ("We might not get another chance to!") Was their excuse as I laughed while Sirius glared at them. Then it was time for us.
"I'll try and come back to you." I promised as he hugged me tight, we then spent the next minute kissing, tears rolled down my cheeks.
"I love you so much, don't ever forget that." He whispered in my ear before I stepped back and left the grounds. And image entered my mind and I concentrated on it and left Hogwarts far behind me.
"Have you decided?"
"I have my Lord."
"And what is your answer?"
"Yes." He gave me a wicked smile and walked towards me.
"Wise choice, I would so hate to hand such a rarity as you over to my Death eaters, a couple of them seemed quite keen to have you, perhaps, too keen." He spoke so quietly yet I managed to catch every word.
"Now, you can of course finish up at Hogwarts properly if you wish, I shall allow that, but the instant you arrive in Kings cross, you are mine."
"Yes my Lord." I bowed deeply and managed to wipe the tears from my eyes before he could notice them.
"Excellent. You may go now; I have much to do to prepare for your arrival." He said and I got out of there as quickly as I could.
I had just come out of the shower after saying goodbye to Skye when the door opened and she came running into the room and flung herself around me.
"Skye! What are you doing here?"
"He's let me stay until Hogwarts finishes; he said he needed to prepare for my arrival, whatever that means." She sobbed into my shoulder and I held her tighter than ever. At that point the others came into the room, having seen her running through the common room, they rushed over to her and she quickly related her tale to them, never once letting go of me. They then left us alone so we could have some private time.
I led her to the bed and laid her down on it, sitting down beside her as I stroked the hair from her face.
"You need to sleep now; we'll talk more in the morning."
"Stay with me please? Until I go to him."
"Of course my love." She got undressed and soon we were lying in each other's arms again, she held onto me as if I was the only thing between her and oblivion.
Time had never flown by so quickly. Soon we were on the train back to London, to Voldemort. Sirius and I had spent all of yesterday in our clearing and I savored every moment of it. When we made love for the last time, it lasted for an eternity; I never wanted it to end. Now I was sitting beside the man I loved more than life itself, about to go and pledge myself to my Dark Master I hated more than anything. The train pulled to a stop at the station, I got out as slowly as I could, never once letting go of Sirius's hand. I had said my painful goodbyes again on the train.
There was a loud bang and screams erupted from the other end of the platform, everyone was running to get out, there in a small clearing, was Voldemort and his Death Eaters. He saw me immediately and motioned me towards him, there was a clear path between us now, but I didn't want to leave. He motioned for me to come towards him again, this time he used magic to back it up, and I slowly walked towards him.
"My beautiful Rose, it is time."
"Yes my Lord." He grabbed my waist and held me close to him, then covered his hand over my eyes and started to mutter something unintelligible.
If James hadn't held me back I would've went for him, he was holding her so close to him, his hand was on her waist, and he had his hand over her face. They stayed that way for a few minutes, but it was long enough, for while he had been holding her like this, he had been muttering, and slowly her gorgeous brown hair turned black and her skin grew paler. Then he let her go, she stood in front of him as though in a trance, he flicked his wand and her clothes transformed into a black Celtic dress and she had what appeared to be a tiara of pure darkness around her brow. She turned to look at us, and her eyes! They had turned pure black.
"SKYE!" I yelled, hoping to bring her back to me.
I heard someone shout my name, a group of strange people were looking at me with sadness in their eyes, I don't know who they were or how they knew me, but they did seem strangely familiar.
"Come my Rose Petal, it is time for us to go home." I turned to face my Master as he pulled me to him, his hand around my waist.
"Yes my Lord… my love." I felt my Master press his lips against mine and I surrendered willingly to him, I heard a wail of anguish before I disappeared in the arms of Lord Voldemort to my new home, with him…by his side as his Queen.
