Harry awoke to find himself lying on a cold stone floor with no memory of how he got there. He sat up and felt his head throb painfully. With a soft groan he got to his feet and squinted through the dark in an attempt to get a better look at his surroundings.
From what he could see, he was standing in the center of a rather large stone chamber. The only light came from the green flame torches lining the walls and in each corner of the chamber there stood a statue of an enormous serpent about to strike. Their ruby encrusted eyes glittered in the torchlight, giving the rather eerie impression that they might spring to life at any moment.
Harry took a step back and as he did so, he realized that there was nothing to keep him from escaping. No bars or walls to stop him from leaving the center of the room. This worried him a little. Why would his captors be so careless? Feeling more than a little apprehensive, Harry reached inside his pocket and discovered it was empty.
"Looking for this?" Harry whirled around and saw Lucius Malfoy leaning casually against the wall, twirling Harry's wand. "You didn't really expect us to let you keep it did you? Really now, Potter. You aught to know us better than that," he smirked, walking towards the middle of the chamber. He was wearing his death eater's mask, but took it off when he reached Harry.
"So, Potter, still having funny dreams? Bella told me all about it." Harry's hands balled into fists as Lucius began to circle him.
"Missing your godfather?" he sneered. "Trying to cope with the sadness? Or maybe the guilt? It was, after all your fault-"
"Shut up!" Harry yelled. He lunged at Malfoy. Suddenly there was a loud ZAP and he was thrown back as if pushed by some invisible force. He hit the floor, twitching violently in pain before lying still and gasping for breath, his face pressed against the cold stone floor.
"Ah, I must have put my finger on it," Malfoy said, studying his fingernails. "I wouldn't recommend doing that again, Potter. Energy cells can be powerful and I doubt the dark lord would be very happy if it killed you before he had a chance to."
