DISCLAIMER- Sorry, I've been away in China, so this chapter took a long time in coming. But I don't own the characters or the plot.
I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU'RE READING THIS. IT'S CALLED THE SERIES OF UNLUCKY OCCURANCES BECAUSE SO MANY UNLUCKY THINGS HAPPEN TO THE POTTER ORPHANS THAT MOST ORDINARY PEOPLE CAN NOT STAND TO READ ABOUT THEM. THE ONLY REASONS WHY YOU WOULD READ THIS IS IF YOU HAVE NOTHING ELSE TO DO, OR THERE IS A SECRET MESSAGE FOR YOU INSIDE OF IT. SO PLEASE, MAKE ANOTHER SELECTION.
Chapter nine
"Hmmm. Ickle Ronnykins is gone, is he?" Lord Voldemort asked, when he had finished laughing. "I just can't believe it! It's dangerous for a 12-year-old boy to be wandering around at night."
"What did you do to him?" Screamed Hermione.
"Me?" Cried Lord Voldemort. "You're accusing me?" He gave her an innocent look, then smiled and his shiny eyes looked at her hungrily. "Okay, so I know where he is. And if you'll follow me, I'll enlighten you."
Just then Harry gave a start and woke up. "Huh?" He mumbled. "Where's Ron?"
Hermione grabbed him by the arm and dragged him to the door of the bedroom. Lord Voldemort sneered, then left the room. Hermione, with Harry in tow, followed. They left the house by the back door and Lord Voldemort led them onto the lawn. They stopped in front of the grate that looked down into the well. Their evil guardian looked in and said, "It's not every day you see and orphan underground."
Hermione and Harry looked down, and Hermione let out a whimper. Their was their youngest sibling, in a cage attached to the wall of the well. It was not a very large cage, and Ron did not look comfortable in the least. His mouth was gagged, and he couldn't see his siblings looking down at him.
"Let him go!" Harry commanded, trying to sound brave and important. He ended up sounded like a pleading wimp.
"Well, if you really want me to." Lord Voldemort chuckled. "But you see, at the bottom of the well is quite a lot of water. Maybe about ten feet. Unless your wonderful brother can swim in a cage with both hands and legs tied toghther..." he smiled nastily.
"No!" Hermione cried.
"We'll do...anything." Harry grumbled. He hated given in. It wasn't in his nature.
"Anything?" Lord Voldemort promped. "Really. Do tell. How about you, my dear daughter? Would you do anything?"
Hermione gulped and shivered. Daughter?
"Would you, say, marry me in my play?" Voldemort sneered. "After all, it's only a play. And you wouldn't want your brother to die!"
"All right." Hermione sighed. "I promise to...marry you." She shivered. She couldn't imagine living a life with Lord Voldemort.
"That's my dear." He laughed and smoothed her bushy hair. "It won't be that bad, living with me, will it? I wouldn't dispose of you like your two pesky brothers. You're quite pretty, after all."
Hermione just shivered again, and found herself staring at Lord Voldemort's ankle, and the skull tatoo that was gleaming on it. He wasn't wearing any shoes or socks. She felt that the skull was staring at her, and the snake in its mouth was hissing.
Lord Voldemort began to brag about his cleverness. "While you were busy reading your head off, and your brother was busy snoring, I was busy getting my assistant to sneak in and drag Ronnykins out of the room. He was asleep of course. Then my assistant simply locked him in the cage down in the well. Quite a simple plan really, for a man of my intellect." He laughed again, then barked out, "Back into the house! Ron will get out as soon as my play tomorrow is over."
When Harry and Hermione were back in their room, Hermione sank into bed, crying. She couldn't believe that she was going to have to marry his evil, cruel, and unbelievably cunning brute. At last, she sank into a fitful slumber, a word which here means, full of terrible dreams of Lord Voldemort and his evil scheme.
But Harry ignored Hermione. He was too busy thinking. Thinking and making his own schemes. Schemes that, if successful, would free Ron and allow them to escape.
REVIEWERS
HaveFunWithThat- I'm glad it was better than you expected. Thanks for being honest and saying you thought it would suck. Of course, if you thought it really did suck, I wouldn't have wanted to you to be honest. The writing style is really hard to do, but it's fun!
ERMonkey, Burner of Cookies- I'm glad you liked it. I decided to change to wording in the books a lot to better fit the characters. Even though the eldest Baudelaire is shy, quiet, and well mannered, I'm going to keep Harry as his usual blunt, outgoing, easily angered self.
SRAndrews- Glad you liked it. Sorry about the Mr.Poe/Mr.Fudge mess up. I ALWAYS do that! It's so hard because I'm basically writing the Lemony Snicket story with different charcters. I keep wanting to write Count Olaf instead of Lord Voldemort. My favorite is the Austere Acadamy.
Banana-Anna428- I love your name! Banana-Anna! Hee hee. I have a friend who I call Hannie bananie. Hmmmm. Yes, Trelawny would be a good Aunt Josephine. But who would be Ike? I shouldn't have said the Potters' parents' names, though. Oh well. I'm pretty sure I'm going to do all the books.
Sparrow Greenleaf- WHAT?? You've never read Series of Unfortunate Events??? READ IT! READ IT! READ IT! NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW! Ok, I'm done ranting. I'm glad you like my story. The first book is called The Bad Beginning (instead of the Sinister Start)
Dweem-Angel- Hello, I remember you! I'm glad you came back!
Celly- READ THE SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS NOW, NOW NOW!! DON'T WAIT! YOU MUST READ THEM NOW! Okay, okay, I'll calm down. No, I've never read 'Cirque du Freak'. Isn't that French? Or Spanish? I'll look them up.
Sandaa Shojo- Yeah, the blonde-haired man is Lucius Malfoy. The rat faced man is Peter and the two big men are Crabbe and Goyle. I'm glad you liked it.
Visualpurple- I'm answering all your Star Trek questions in this. Hee hee. You called me "wise and learned teacher". I like that. A Vulcan is a species with green blood, pointy ears, strange slanted eyebrows, and an obsession with logic. Spock does have emotions, but he tries very hard to surpress them. He's very good at it too. Live long and prosper is a Vulcan greeting which goes with the Vulcan Salute, in which you form your hand to look like . A Ferengi is a greedy species with big ears and a bumpy head. I doubt Spock has even eaten a donut. Ensign is a rank on a starship (you know, Lieutenent, Captain, etc.) The lowest rank, I might add. They usually have red shirts. In almost every episode, the main bridge crew and a random ensign with a red shirt whose name is never mentioned beam down to a planet. Then something kills the ensign right away. It's a joke that landing parties (the people who are beamed down to the planet) have to beware if they're wearing a red shirt because they're sure to be the first to die. A nerve pinch is something Vulcans do that makes people unconcious. They pinch a nerve in your shoulder. The brig is the jail cell on a ship. Khan is the ultimate bad guy. Veeeery evil.
Roseanna- Cool. Harry Potter and Lemony Snicket are your two favorite stories. Moldy Voldy. Hee hee. I hope you didn't get in trouble. I sometimes do with my Mom when I go on the computer too much. She gets really annoyed because she wants to check her email.
Alouette- Glad you liked my story. Wow, you actually like cliffhangers. I like writing them, but I HATE it when they're in stories that I'm reading.
hypaanimeluva- I like your name, it's cool : ) Glad you liked my story. Thanks for reviewing!
