The Truth about Colin Creevy: Prologue to the Vicky Voldemort
Chronicles.
It was the
perfect plan. No one would ever suspect
him. How could they? A muggle-born? be a spy for He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named?
Never! And Indeed a spy for the Dark Lord would have never been Petrified by
Slitherin's monster. But Colin Creevy
was both of these things. It was
absolutely perfect. It wouldn't be
un-believable that he was so infatuated with Harry that he wanted to follow him
around all the time and take his picture.
In fact it was quite true. Since
the first time Colin Had read about Harry in "Great Wizarding Events of the 20th
century" he had idolized him. That is why he was so eager to take the job, and
being muggle born, wasn't exactly well informed about who not to associate
with, so he leapt at the chance to "be an informant…really for Harry's own
good" not knowing what he was getting into.
It was an
added plus that he ended up in Griffindor.
This gave him even more time to do his dirty work. At night he wrote meter-long essays about
what Harry had done that day, finding it difficult not to make everything he
did sound heroic and spectacular, and making things sound sneaky and
suspicious. That was what spies were
supposed to do weren't they? Once
he was finished, he'd unload the film he had shot that day, and place it in an
envelope with the long, now folded, essay.
Then he would send them off to the very secretive MDA (Ministry of the
Dark Arts) Office with an owl sent to him from them each night at 9
o'clock. The other boys in his
dormitory supposed he was just very close to his parents, or that they were a
bit overprotective, wanting to hear from him, in great detail, the happenings
of each day.
But
eventually Colin shortened the essays up a bit. He wrote in less detail, and told it how it was, instead of
exaggerating everything to make it sound dreadfully exciting. You see, all this spying was cutting in on Colin's
schoolwork, and to make matters worse, he was beginning to think Harry saw him
as a pest.
If Harry
didn't want him around, he couldn't spy, then his job would be threatened, and
then he would be on You-know-who's bad side, and that could never be good.
As they
always seem to in time's of great fear and confusion (you see Mrs. Norris had
been petrified and there was great talk of something called the chamber of
secrets?) Colins worst fears came true.
And soon after he was himself petrified. Luckily he escaped death because he only saw the monster through
his camera lens. He saw this as a
punishment for not bringing back as much information as he had in the past, but
it was not. Voldemort would not be that
dumb, to purposely put his best spy in a state where he was un-able to spy..but
it did have desirable (to some people at least) effects on colin. When he was awakened, he made a vow to keep
an even closer watch on Harry in the future, and to write as long of essays
about the days events as possible.
So now you
know the truth, about Colin creevy, A spy for the most Feared Dark wizard of
all time. I never would've suspected it
had I not been the one that Hired him.
But who am I you ask? I am the
one…the only. Vicky Voldemort.
A/N: This is a Prologue to my
next horrifying attempt at a series fic (readers begin to grumble about how
astra has never completed a series fic) but I don't care! I want to write it and you can't stop me. Just don't expect Book the First to be
coming any time soon because I've written about 10 words fo it so far. Please be patient with me on this ok?
Thanks!
D/C (disclaimer and claimer):
Harry, Colin Creevy, and Mrs. Norris, and everything else except Vicky
Voldemort belong to Ms. Rowling herself.
Vicky belongs mostly to me, but the Voldemort area of her name belongs
to Ms. Rowling also. Satisfied?
