Author's note:
Hey guys. The reason why I removed and reposted the story is because my co-editor and friend, Amitoj (also known as ILRB80 on this website) as well as myself decided to try something unique which is doing a land of stories, Harry Potter and Twilight crossover. Unfortunately, is not allowing us to have more than two crossover categories. That is why We have got only Land of Stories and Harry Potter as the two categories. This story is, however, a Twilight crossover as well as Land of Stories and Harry Potter.
On to the story. Hope you enjoy.
Prologue:
August 1981.
He stared around the hide out in frustration. There was still no more information about the Potter's and he was furious. For the Potters were the one family that needed to be eliminated as early as possible because of the threat that their child posed to him.
Suddenly the door swung open, admitting someone who he could not see.
"Who dares to come here?" He hissed. The unexpected intrusion angered him even more.
"Me!" The voice was unwavering and steady.
"Show yourself!" Voldemort said glaring around, his wand at the ready.
A woman with dark hair and bright red lips stepped into the light. She looked beautiful apart from the ram-like horns which grew out of the sides of her head and curled around the sides of her face.
"What business do you have here? And how do you know of this place?" Voldemort said as he stepped towards the strange woman with his wand raised, ready to strike.
"I want to make a deal with you." She said it like she was standing in front of a business partner, not he who must not be named, the most feared sorcerer in the world.
"Well, you are in the wrong place, my friend. I don't associate with vermin like yourself!" He said angrily.
The woman bowed.
"Please hear me out. My name is Morina. I live in another world." She smiled at him.
"Another world? I'm listening."
"I am part of a group of witches from the fairy-tale world that plan on attacking a 3rd world. Here is where you come in."
"I don't believe you." He glared at her.
"I knew you wouldn't. That is why I will show you."
The witch's eyes suddenly lit up like the headlights of a car. Morina magically transferred images of the Otherworld into Voldemort's mind and his eyes glowed.
Visions of the fairy kingdom, the charming kingdom and the dwarf forests flashed before his eyes. He saw the fairy council as well as all the kings and queens. He then saw the numerous attempts that the witches had made to take over 'the other world,' as they called it, and how they all had failed. He saw how the snow queen and the sea witch had put a girl by the name of Ezmia under a curse which made her do their bidding. She had been more ruthless and powerful than even he had been. That is, until she was killed by a girl of about 13 years of age. He then saw a man by the name of Lloyd Bailey who called himself 'the masked man' who had tricked and lied to Morina. Most intriguing of all was their final meeting in which she had seen Lloyd's portal potion and had discovered the truth of the 'other world' quite by accident as she looked at the future in her crystal ball.
Lloyd —along with his portal potion— had succeeded where the witches had not. The masked man and the literary army had nearly taken over the fairy-tale world which was newly named 'The Masked Empire.'
The light then faded from his eyes, and now he pensively regarded Morina with a cool and calculated expression.
"Alex," Morina called. "Alex, say hello to the dark lord himself." She smiled as the door swung open again.
Behind the door was a girl. She looked to be about 15. But she was unlike any girl he'd ever seen before. Her strawberry blond hair floated above her head and her eyes glowed. The girl levitated a few inches above the ground and stood beside Morina.
Upon further reflection, Lord Voldemort recognised her to be the same girl who had killed Ezmia.
"What is that child doing here?" He pointed his wand at the girl.
"This is Alex Bailey. She is the granddaughter of the late fairy godmother. She holds great power and that is why the witches and I have cursed her. Alex is under my control. As of yet, the girl is a weapon. Once the weapon has done its job, we will dispose of her."
"So she is talented and she killed this Ezmia who seemed to be even worse than me in your world. This does not concern me. No one can survive when I, lord Voldemort decides to finish them off. I am losing my patience with you." He moved towards Morina.
"The bargain is this: you help me take the both worlds down and I will help you take this one and more." She folded her arms waiting for an answer.
He stopped and decided to humour the foolish woman by complying with her wishes. Once he took over this world, he would trick the witch into taking him to her world where he would kill her and slowly but surely take over that world as well.
A look of amusement flickered on Lord Voldemort's face. Truly. He did not believe a word that came out of the half woman and half creature's mouth, nor did the woman convince him of much. Yes, she had showed him very convincing images, but he couldn't rule out the possibility of it being a trap. He had his doubts about a third world existing despite seeing very convincing evidence. As much as he would have wanted to deny it, the idea of other worlds existing did intrigue him somewhat.
"Tell me about your world, Morina," Voldemort said in his high, cold voice. As the woman told him all about her world and what she had done, lord Voldemort was shaken. This woman was powerful. No doubt about that. Even more disturbing was the fact that she possessed a tad more cunning than himself. She was a dangerous, cunning, powerful and a ruthless individual. And forming a true alliance with her for the time being would only further his goals.
"Well, the 3rd world is split between us and I have something I need you to do first."
He looked at her and the girl. Morina put out her hand.
"As you wish dark lord."
