Chapter 9 A Chapter in which Snape does a Stupid Thing
(A chapter in which Hotaru21 manically changes all her chapter titles)
Samantha Sinistra was distraught. One of her students was missing, and the Dark Mark had been sent out. Hers was burning ever painfully into her arm, but she needed to speak to Severus before she left for the manor. She found him in the circular room that was their meeting place. She found Severus there, he was pacing.
"Severus" she said, "A student is missing, I think she's gone to the manor"
"Samantha" he snapped. "I know, she told us she was going!" Snape strode angrily around the table, and out the door before she could make her protest known. Pertho looked up from his novel.
"Didn't you hear Snape talking earlier? Padma went shortly after Alec and Kathryn" he asked.
"It's not her!" Samantha said exasperatedly. "Another students is gone as well"
"Who?" demanded Pertho.
"Bethany Knight" was the quiet reply.
Alec glanced around the closet and slipped outside. He promptly knocked over Kathryn, who had been standing just outside the door.
"What did you think you were doing!?!?" Alec whispered viciously.
"I was listening" Kathryn muttered. "I thought I heard someone out here"
"Kat, do me a favour and don't do that again" Alec said quietly, as they made their way to the dining room.
"Welcome" the blond woman said, with a wave of her hand to the table. Though there were many Death Eaters in the room, the blonde woman had pointed to the chairs beside one who was obviously younger. Her straight, black hair was just visible under her hood. Alec and Kathryn sat down beside the girl.
"Hey guys" she said in pallet whisper. Alec jumped as he recognized the voice.
"Padma?" he said, "When did you get here?" She shrugged.
"Same as you" she replied. The blonde woman rapped on the table for silence. She stood and eyed all present warily.
"I have summoned you here" she began, "Not because I wish to avenge the Dark Lord, who cares about that? But because I will best him, and I value your loyal support". You could have heard a pin drop in the room. "I will give you now the choice to join me. You have a week to decide. Go now, inform the others."
"Who are you?" asked Goyle. There was a flash of green light and he slumped over.
"No questions" hissed the blonde. "Go now, tell the others'.
The three students returned to the circular room together. Kathryn felt sick. She'd never get used to all the killing. Alec put a comforting arm around her shoulders and she fought back tears. "This is stupid" she thought to herself "I hate Goyle, he was a stupid, murderous brute".
"It's okay Kat, we'll stop this" Alec said quietly. Professor Snape approached the couch where the three of them were seated, and Alec removed his arm from Kathryn's shoulders.
"What happened?' asked Snape.
"There's this blonde woman" Kathryn said. "She wants to best the Dark Lord"
"Is that all she said?" asked Snape.
"Yes" said Padma. "She said we have a week to decide whether we will join her forces".
"Great" muttered Snape. "That's all she told us as well".
"You went?" asked Alec.
"Yes" Snape said, "After your group, she spoke to us in the room next door. We couldn't hear you"
"Professor" Padma said hesitantly. "She..."
"Yes Padma?" Snape said.
"She killed Goyle, he questioned her identity. She cursed him instantly". Snape sighed.
"Thank you, Miss Patil...Padma. This blonde woman is serious. I need to speak with Kristina. Try to get some sleep, we'll discuss this later." He left without a backward glance. Kathryn, Alec and Padma left for their dormitories.
Samantha Sinistra and Pertho Nothiz were still hunting around for the missing student when she appeared on their map as a dot in the Slytherin dormitory.
"What on earth?" muttered Samantha, "Pertho, she's back in her room"
"Could it be a mistake?" he asked, looking over her shoulder at the map. "No, it isn't....how can this be?"
"We should inform Severus" Samantha said. "He needs to know Bethany was gone for the night"
"Whatever you say Sam" Pertho said, falling in beside her as they made their way to Snape's office. "You need to learn to speak up to him, you know". Samantha looked down, and said nothing. "Never mind" Pertho said quickly, sensing Samantha's distress. He took her hand and said, "Let's go".
Severus Snape called himself ten kinds of idiot when he found out that it was Bethany that Samantha had been talking about.
"I am such a shit" Snape thought out loud.
"You sure are" Pertho said. Snape glared at him.
"Thank you for your constructive criticism. I will store it with the other 80 billion things I was worrying about at the time" Snape retorted.
"Well, now our suspicions are furthered. Should we tell the students about that?" asked Pertho.
"No" Snape said, "They're friends with her and nothing can change"
"Right" Pertho said. "See you later; be nicer to your sister".
AN. Sorry it's so short. Next chapter, "A Chapter in which Harry learns that others have suffered more than he has".
AN. I'm back with vengeance. This chapter will take a bit of a dark turn!! Yay evil turn!!! The plot is here!!! Or maybe not, I can pretend if I want to!!
