Chapter 24: The torture
I don't know how much time has passed since I have been captured by the Dark Lord. I am still tied down to the chair, locked in a cold, dark cell with no way of escaping. I am scared. I wondered how my family was holding up. Oh, I hoped they will come and save me soon. Just then, Bellatrix came into the room. I tried to scream 'what do you want from me?' But I couldn't because I was gagged. Bellatrix smirked when she saw me.
"Aww, look at the poor, defenseless girl," Bellatrix said with a smirk. I glared at her. Bellatrix untied my ropes and forced me up by the arm. Her sharp nails were digging in my skin. I tried not to cry as she kept dragging me. When we got to the main room of the manor, Bellatrix threw me down to the floor. I grunted in pain when I landed hard. "Well done, Bella, you brought her here," Voldemort said. "Thank you, My Lord. What do you plan on doing with the girl?" Bellatrix asked.
"You'll see; stick around for the fun," Voldemort said. "Okay," Bellatrix said. I wanted to run, but I would be killed if I tried running away. Voldemort used some magic from his wand and lifted me up, leaving me floating in the air. I looked around my surroundings and saw most of the death eaters when Voldemort returned were here. I gasped when I saw Professor Snape here, and also Draco was here too. Voldemort took the gag off of me and I gasped for air. "Draco, Professor, what are you guys doing here?" I said with shock. "That does not matter right now," Voldemort said.
"Crucio!" Voldemort shouted. I screamed in pain when I was hit by the curse. This was the worst pain I had felt. Even worse than when Cato and Scar had raped me or hit me a while ago. "How was that, Potter? Felt the pain?" Voldemort said. "I bet she won't be able to sit for a week," Draco said and laughed.
"You guys will regret hurting me. When my family comes, they will beat your ass for what you have done to me." I said, trying to sound brave. "I don't think so. Once I kill your father, I will kill you. And your family will be forced to watch as the light will leave your eyes." Voldemort said with a smirk. "So you're just gonna torture me until I die?" I said. "Yes, that's basically about right," Voldemort said. "Crucio!" Voldemort shouted. The spell had once again hit me and I screamed in pain. "That looked like fun, can I join in this time?" Lucius said. "Yes, let's all do it together," Voldemort said. The death eaters all pointed their wands at me.
"Crucio!" They all shouted. The spell had hit me harder this time and I screamed in pain. They hit the spell at me again and I screamed again. Voldemort grabbed me by the chin. "When will your father come?" Voldemort said. "I don't know, but knowing my family, they will come for me," I said. Voldemort grew angry and grabbed my hand and made a cut along my arm. I cried in pain when I felt the cut open up. My arm was bleeding now.
Voldemort made another cut along my arm and another. I felt tears forming in my eyes as I was being tortured. Bellatrix grabbed me by the hair and forced me to look up. "Would you mind, the hair," I said, grunting in pain. "Shh," Bellatrix said as she hit her wand on my throat. "Do with her what you please Bellatrix. I need her alive though." Voldemort said. "Don't worry, I just wanna make her suffer," Bellatrix said.
Bellatrix pointed her wand at the visible scar on my right eye. "What are you doing?" I said, scared. Bellatrix said nothing and re-opened the visible scar on my right eye. I cried out in pain and I felt blood pouring out of my eye. "Please, stop." I pleaded. "Crucio!" Bellatrix shouted. I cried out in pain when I was hit with the spell again. "Maybe I should give you the same scar on your left eye," Bellatrix said as she pointed her wand at my left eye.
"Not now Bellatrix, I want her to have both her eyes so she can be traumatized," Voldemort said. "I need to go pay a visit to someone, take her back to her cell," Voldemort said. Voldemort let me down with his magic and Professor Snape grabbed me by the arm. "Wait, I want to give her some beatings," Draco said as Professor Snape was about to drag me away. "In a moment here Draco, I need to have a word with this one." Professor Snape said. Professor Snape grabbed me tightly by the arm and dragged me back to the cell. He forced me to sit down in the chair again and tied me in the chair again, the same position as before.
After he finished tying me up, he looked at me with his cold, dark eyes. "Listen here, Potter, if you tell anyone that I work with the Dark Lord then I will make sure that you are expelled from Hogwarts, got it?" Professor Snape said in a warning tone. I nodded.
"Yes, Professor," I said. "Good." Professor Snape said. With that, he left, slamming the door behind him. Just then, Draco had come into the room. I sighed. When will this torture end? "Please go away," I said. "No, I want to give you your beatings. Revenge for the time Professor Moody turned me into a ferret." Draco said.
"Well, that was pretty funny," I said with a bit of a laugh. "I mean, you deserved it. You were being a bitch to me and my dad." I said. "Shut the fuck up!" Draco yelled as he punched me hard in the face. I cried in pain. "You're defenseless. So now you can't fight back. This gives me more of a chance." Draco said as he gave me another punch. I cried in pain again and he punched me again. A few more punches and kicks, and he decided he was done with me.
"It's time for me to go back. Don't try to escape," Draco said. With that, he left, slamming the door behind him. I cried silently. I wished this pain and this torture was over with. I wish I didn't have my name put in the cup. This is so unfair.
I sat in silence and prayed for my family to come and rescue me.
