Voldemort cursed under his breath. This was what he was afraid
of. Ryoko was part elf. Her family was very powerful--on her mother's side,
that is. Her father was just a filthy mudblood Gryffindor as far as he
was concerned. Thinking quickly he tried a different tactic, "I wasn't
trying to trick you! As you can see, your power is destroying the room--therefore,
what's to stop it from hurting Kouga? He's closer to you than I am."
"I'm not going to hurt him! I'm going to get you!" She shouted,
her eyes blazing.
"But you are--look at him... he's bleeding worse than ever...
and he's getting pale... don't think I would lie about my own son's death."
Ryoko let some of the energy she had gathered go and looked down
at Kouga, 'Kouga- kun...'
Voldemort held his wand out and pointed it at Ryoko, 'Kill her...'
he thought, 'while her guard's down...'
'NO!'
Voldemort blinked--was Tom trying to stop him? 'What do you want
fool? You're supposed to have been erased from my memory!'
'Leave her alone!' Tom's voice shouted into Voldemort's mind,
'Just leave her alone!'
Voldemort laughed, 'Why should I? Is there something you could
do to stop me from killing her?'
Tom couldn't think of anything. 'Just don't hurt her!'
'Watch me.' Voldemort laughed again, raising his wand, "Aveda..."
"STOP!!" Tom shouted again--this time through Voldemort's mouth,
"Obliviate!!"
Ryoko blinked, her eyes registering no memory of the past few
days. She sat beside Kouga, confused, "huh...?"
The threat was gone. As long as Ryoko didn't remember transforming
there wasn't any problem. 'I could let her go...' Voldemort thought, 'What?!'
he blinked, 'did I just think that?' he stood, struggling with his mind
and heart for a minute before deciding to leave. If Tom wanted to fight
his will, he didn't want to show his weakness to his enemies. He left just
as Kouga began to move.
Kouga opened his eyes, "Wha..."
Ryoko turned, "Kouga-kun? What's going on here--you're bleeding!"
Kouga grabbed Ryoko's hands, "Ryoko-chan! You're ok? Where's
Voldemort!?"
"Voldemort?" Ryoko gasped, "What's going on?"
Kouga shook his head, it didn't look like she remembered anything.
"Nothing's going on... never mind. Let's just get back to Hogwarts, ok?"
Still confused Ryoko nodded, "Ok..."
