Chapter two

Bella and I quickly found the boy still stunned in the tall grass of the hill. His hair was all entangled with twigs and weeds. "Before we revive our little victim here, let me tell you about these 'unforgivable curses'. Now the first one I am going to teach you is called the imperious curse. Any idea what that does."

"From what I understand it forces someone to do what you tell them to." Bella said.

"Exactly." I nodded, "Now the imperious curse takes a lot of power to perform. The easiest way to work your way into someone's mine is to do it when they aren't looking or are distracted. Some of the more powerful witches and wizards can perform this with less resistance from their victim. Its incantation is imperio.

"The second curse is called the Cruciatus curse. Now, what do you think that one does?"

"Pain" was all she said. "I got hit by that one by my father."

"Ouch" I shuddered. "The trick to the Cruciatus curse is to have the desire to cause someone pain. You need to enjoy the pain, to revel in it. The incantation fore this curse is crucio.

"And the last curse is-"

"Avada Kedavra, the killing curse."

"Very good Bella, I trust that you know how to work that one."

"Of course McKeague," She replied, pulling out her wand from a pocket in her robes. I heard her mutter a silencing charm.

"Ready?" I noted the nod that she gave me, "Ennervate" I muttered and the boy woke. He wiped his dirty hair from his eyes and looked at us.

"What happened?" He asked the two of us confused.

"Well Muggle," Bella spat out like a rotten word. "You are about to be attacked by two of the most powerful witches in the world."

"Witches, Muggles what the hell?"

"Hell, yes, that is what your life will be like for the next, let's say, oh 25 minutes." Bella replied.

"Imperio" I shouted. I began to command him to do back flips and position his body in ways that would be physically impossible with out my influence. Bella and I burst into t fit of laughter.

"Your turn" I said to Bellatrix, muttering the finishing spell. The boy wrapped his arms around his legs crying and begging for us to stop.

"Crucio" She shouted stabbing her wand in his general direction. The boy screamed and howled in pain as Bella laughed, "I shall enjoy watching you suffer and die Muggle!" She ceased her curse and turned to me. "Your turn McKeague."

I smirked and hit him with a conjunctivitis curse. The boy stumbled around and fell on his face. Bella came up behind me, positioned her wand and hit him once again with the Cruciatus curse.

We must have toyed and tortured him for the better part of an hour before we killed him. Bella did the honors, killing our first Muggle made us feel powerful. Bella quickly transfigured the body into a blade of dried grass before we left the hill side up to Riddle manor.

I settled my head into my hands and sighed. It was true, I taught Bella all three of the unforgivable curses. The student, however, became much better at using those curses then the teacher. Sure I could use them alright, but Bella was truly the master, or should I say mistress of the unforgivables.

We of course know all about how Bella had served time here in Azkaban for the torture of Frank and Alice Longbottom, two of the Ministry's best aurors. She and several other Death Eaters did not claim bewitchment or enslavement for their actions. She and the others were honored with possessions and special tasks for the Dark Lord. They earned his trust.

We marched our way back up the hill side and entered in the dim and dark Riddle house where the Dark Lord was waiting for us. He glanced us over before he spoke to us, his face emotionless. "You two had fun." He remarked before stepping towards us.

"I saw you both through the window and was very impressed with you motives, yet at the same time I am depressed that you used a silencing charm. Good work not drawing attention to yourself, yet I do wish I could have heard his screaming." He smiled and laughed a cold, evil laugh.

He nodded to us both and strolled over by the window looking over the hillside again. "Bella, do come here."

Bella looked over at me and walked over to the window where the Dark Lord was standing. "Bellatrix Black, do you proclaim everlasting loyalty to me. Do you vow to follow me, to obey my commands, to live your life for me?"

Bella looked him strait in the eye, took a deep breath and nodded. "Yes, my Lord."

"This vow has been witnessed by Miss McKeague and myself. Extend your left arm." The Dark Lord commanded.

Bella stretched her arm out and the Dark Lord took hold of her arm. He pulled his wand out of his pocket and then pushed up the sleeve of her robe. He muttered someone in audible and the tip of his wand lit as if it contained red hot coals. He placed the tip of his wand to her forearm and began to slowly trace a marking on it. Bella screeched and tried to break loose, but no avail. "Receive the Dark Mark Bellatrix Black, let it be a reminder of your pledge of loyalty to me. When this mark burns black, let it be known to you that you will apparate to my side immediately."

As soon as the mark was finished he extinguished his wand and let go of Bella's arm. Bella stumbled to the floor, but picked herself back up and held her sore arm to her chest.

"Rickelle McKeague, come here." I walked forward to the window next. He stared at me, his red eyes bore through me as if he was searching my mind for lies, signs of betrayal. "Rickelle McKeague, Do you proclaim your everlasting loyalty to me? Do you vow to follow my orders, to live your life for me?"

"Yes, My Lord." I replied.

He asked for my arm and I willingly gave it to him. Once again he muttered an incantation and he engraved his signature mark on my forearm." The pain that Bella expressed was nothing compared to the true feelings of pain that came from the spell he used. Just as Bella had done I attempted to pull my arm away, but no avail, he had a grip on my arm that was so tight I could feel bruises forming on the spots where his fingers were. I held in a loud wail and he finished it, extinguished his wand and sent us on our way. "May your loyalty never waiver, my Death Eaters."

Bella and I left Little Hangleton to go to the Leaky Couldron where we celebrated our initiation with Butter Beer and shots of Oddkins Old Fire Whisky. Lucius, Avery, and Rudy joined us several minutes later. "Did you?" Bella asked.

Avery, Lucius, and Rudy lifted up the left sleeve of their shirts. Bella smiled widely and kissed Rudy full on the lips.

"Get a room!" Avery said rolling his eyes. Bella gave him a glare in return.

"A round of whisky!" Lucius shouted. The bar tender looked over at him and then poured out the whisky into shot glasses. We each took one. In a lower voice Lucius spoke again. "To the Dark Lord's newest recruits: may we be ever faithful to our Lord and Master!"

"Hear, hear!" We all replied and drank.
