Chapter 3: In the Clutches

"No, leave it there. For this is the link that is going to keep us together. To make sure I will always be able to find her" by now my face was tearstained and red. My eyes were becoming puffy. Footsteps and voices were heard coming closer coming closer. "Hurry" I whispered. Nick nodded and before her eyes disappeared. The door was then kicked down and about twenty death eaters entered the room.

A death eater stepped forward, cupped my chin in his hand, and said "Princess, we have a proposition"

I was nervous as I tried to remember where I had placed my wand. I then remembered that it was under the cradle. I would have to do this with my natural born powers.

"I'd rather die a thousand deaths than discuss any propositions with you bitch" I closed my eyes and the death eater dropped dead.

My eyes went ablaze. I then turned my concentration to the five on my right. They then fell down to the ground and began to whither and shake uncontrollably. The ten on my right then grabbed their throats and made choking sounds.

'Now where are the rest of you' I thought. My voice boomed in the room 'are you all hiding from me?'

I saw a black fabric move through the corner of my eye and blinked. He fell down dead.

"NOW WHERE ARE THE REST OF YOU COWARDS? FACE ME LIKE THE EVIL YOU ARE!" I yelled. I raised my hand and the remaining three death eaters floated up from their hiding places and waved my arm. They were flung against a wall.

"Stupefy"

GASP!

I woke up in my bed gasping for air. I had dreamt about the night I had to give up my precious baby to keep her safe.

I looked around the room. It was exactly the same as it had been for the time that I've been here. Lucius Malfoy came up behind me and stunned me. The remaining death eaters who came with him brought me to a very large house that was called the Riddle house where I was kept a prisoner for fourteen years. The Dark Lord was found and brought to me. He demanded that I brought him back to life and give him a body, but I refused. Even if I did not refuse I still wouldn't have given him a way to be reborn because those powers of mine had been passed from me to my precious baby. I did not tell anyone that, though, for then they would have searched for her and raised her as evil. Every night I would lie awake in the room they had put me in, which I assumed was the master bedroom, and think about Hermione and Nick and my family. What would happen to them? One night, though I overheard that the Dark Lord had been found and was going to be brought to the house. There had been a power-binding spell put over the house so unless you had a wand or were the Dark Lord you could not use your powers. I couldn't even shape shift.

I had practically every type of blood from every being on the earth. My great grandmother was a veela. My mother was a prophet, like the second woman in our family line. My great great grandmother was a nymph and so on. My mother, though, was the first of our entire line to have more than one child, and the first to give birth to a boy. I had a sister and a brother. My brother was about two years older than me, but when he turned eleven he went back in time and nobody in my family knows what happened. Our sister is seven years older than me. All she does is suck up to my parents. All of the men in the Riddle line are wizards, except for my husband, who is a demon.

So there I was, being kept a prisoner in my ancestor's house, waiting to meet the Dark Lord. I saw him in a high chair, in the form of a baby! There was something familiar about the baby, as though I had seen him before.

Flashback

"Get in there" The Death Eater ordered as he pushed Cassara into the room

She looked around and saw a round man tending to an infant.

"Turn me around," said an evil voice. The man turned the chair around to reveal a baby of evil. "My dear Cassara. It had been a long time. Far too long. Now as you can tell, I need a little assistance. Use your powers to give me back my body!" the baby said. His voice sent chills down her spine

"Never, and if you forgot, I cannot use my powers in the damned house you dumb ass!" she was pissed

"Only the ones I choose to let you use" the deformed baby smiled an evil smile

"Why the hell have you brought me to my ancestor's house!"

"They are just as much my ancestors as they are yours dear baby sis."

Cassara gasped. This was what happened to her brother. "How could you! You evil bastard! This what you've been doing for the past twenty-five years! Let me go! I kicked your ass when we were kids, I can do it now!"

"You got the powers though, cheater, and if you have forgotten, I have the upper hand this time. Now work your magic" the baby made a weird pose as if he was expecting his sister to help him. "What will I get out of this? Death? Just like all of those souls whose lives you took? I don't think so"

"Help me, and you shall receive power!"

"I'm a fucking princess moron. Plus I have an almost incomplete bloodline. The only blood I don't have is ogre and giant, and a few others that I don't remember, but those don't have any magical power. C'mon! You never pushed me around when we were older because you couldn't"

"Mother bound my powers you twit! She also made me promise to look after you and if I inflicted pain on you then it would bounce off of you and onto me. She did the same with Ava for me! Now does that sound fair? I want to be reborn, SO DO IT NOW!"

"NO!"

"YES!"

"NO!"

"YES!"

The two went on with their sibling bickering until the round man (Peter Petigrew) interrupted.

"Excuse me, my Lord"

"What!"

"The princess is unable to do it, even if she did agree"

Cassara knew the angle he was going in "no" she whispered to herself, pleading that he would not mention Hermione

"What do you mean?"

"She gave birth to a girl fourteen years ago. The princess no longer possesses that power"

"Is this true Cassy?"

"First of all, I hate that ni-"

"SHUT UP FOR ONCE AND ANSWER THE DAMN QUESTION! GEEZ! HOW FUCKING HARD IS IT!" Voldemort said

"Geez, good to know that you're still the same old grouch. And even if I was a mother, like hell I would tell you"

Voldemort turned to Pettigrew. "What do you know about the baby?"

"NO!" Cassara cried

"I've wanted to do this for the longest time. Wormtail, shut her up"

"Silencio!"

"Aaahhh, silence. How perfect. Now, as you were saying"

"Yes, her name is OOMPH!" Cassara tackled Peter to the ground and started to beat the shit out of him.

"Get off of him! You also haven't changed from the short tempered, violent girl I once knew." He levitated her to the other side of the room and bound her with invisible ropes. "Continue Wormtail"

"Her name is Hermione. She recently turned fourteen. That is all we know about her. When we came to capture the princess she was gone, and so was the father"

"My sister was married and I want invited?" he lifted the silencing spell

"My brother became the Dark Lord and I wasn't told?"

"My sister was kidnapped by a group of Death Eaters who her brother controls, I wouldn't get sarcastic with me if I were you. Now, what can you tell me about the father?"

"DO AND DIE BASTARD!"

"Silencio, was that good master?"

"Very good"

"Um, the father is a demon. We do not know what type. He has tried to rescue the princess quite a few times, but because of the spell over the house he has failed all attempts."

"Very good. BUT IT'S NOT ENOUGH! I WANT MY NIECE! BRING HER TO ME! NOW!"

"Yes sir" Wormtail left the room quickly. Cassara stared at her brother with evil eyes.

Voldemort lifted the silencing spell. "C'mon sis. All I want is to be alive and take vengeance upon the Potter boy," he said innocently.

"You are a freak. Always have been and always will be. Let me go and Leave Hermione alone!" "Hey, I'm not the little boy you picked on when we were kids anymore, you dork"

"Well you're a loser dork squared! So shove that up your ass!"

"Wait. Hermione, that name sounds familiar. How old is she again"

"Like hell I'll tell you"

"Please, I'll be your best friend" he sang with an evil smile

"No-o, cause you're a bi-i-itch" she sang back

"Just do it already. I wont kill her, I swear. Or torture her or anything"

"First off, like that'll make me change my mind. Second, HOW THE HELL CAN I TRUST YOU WHEN I'M TIED UP AND YOUR CAPTIVE! WHAT THE FUCK GOES THROUGH YOUR MIND YOU DEMENTED FREAK!"

"Tell me and I'll let you go"

"No"

"Tell me and I'll let you see her again"

"No"

"Tell me or else"

"NO!"

"I hate you"

"I hate you too"

"I hate you more"

"That is not humanly possible, wait, you're not human, are you?"

"Neither are you"

"So"

"TELL ME!"

"NO!"

"MALFOY!"

"Yes my Lord?" a Death Eater said as he ran into the room and bowed with his head to the ground at Voldemort

"How old is the princess's baby?"

"Fourteen lest week"

"Leave us"

He left the room, leaving the two siblings to bicker some more.

End Flashback

I finally escaped that day. I untied myself by feeling around the rope. Tom was babbling to himself and I snuck out the window. As soon as I was out of the house I turned myself into a bird and tried to fly home, but I was stunned at the gate.

I was kept a captive while they searched for my daughter, who I knew was most likely in the safest place I could think of, Hogwarts.

A few months later I overheard a plan to get the Potter boy. The night that they planned it, I snuck out, hoping to catch the boy before any harm came to him, but by the time I got there I saw him running toward a trophy, accio-ing a corpse and disappearing. I quickly turned into a rat this time and scurried behind a tombstone. As soon as everyone was gone I turned into an owl and flew back to the kingdom, but not before seeing my brother in all of his evil.
