A/N: Warning. The rating is now R, for character death, Betrayal, yady yady yah (see last chapter warning for details.)
Disclaimer: Hey all. I don't own Harry Potter or the characters. Only Shadow and the alternative plot line are mine. So keep your mitts off.
The latest instalment from Slytherin Manor:
"My Lord, the Were-wolf was called to Dumbledore this morning. He has been told. He will tell the three any time soon."
"Excellent. It is time she knew her fate. We will give it two days, for him to summon up the courage to tell her. Potter and Black as well... On my mark, we will go collect her."
"We, my lord?"
"Indeed. I will approach her, not in this form, but another."
"Brilliant My Lord, absolutely brilliant."
"Let us ensure that the Manor is ready to accept her. Hide all traces of Purifying activities. She will be informed at a later date, of our... goals. In two days time, she will be mine. Prepare ingredients for a simple illusion potion. I want everything to be perfect..."
A/N: tell me if you think the rating is too high ok? I'm slightly wary of getting hit for abuse, but it will get kind of... messed up next chapter. (wink)
