CHAPTER 2- Marvolo?
How to Annoy Voldemort: What We Will Learn This Chapter
1. Buy or bring him a stress ball.
2. Taunt him about his middle name. 'Marvolo? What's that, a washing detergent?'
3. Mock his baldness.
"So…" Matt interrupted the silence, "where's the sign-up sheet?"
The stout man pointed to the double doors they stopped at. "I'll announce you at once."
The man cringed before he tapped on the door, not wanting to disturb his master's evil potting session oops, I mean plotting. After all, he was evil and he was potting…I mean plotting. Before he even tapped, a voice behind the door called, low and angry with a hint of eccentricity, "What is it, Wormtail?"
"Hm, he seems a bit upset…" Kris noted, sarcastically.
"I brought him a stress ball!" Lori cheerfully added.
Joey shook his head. "Lori, no happy."
Stiffening up her face to look serious, Lori reminded herself under her breath, "No happy, got it."
Buried deep into his evil potting uh, I mean plotting sat a fairly tall man, pale skinned, red eyed and bald headed. His exceptionally long fingers dropped his red pen as he rose from his mahogany chair backed with black velveteen, his long black robe swishing slightly at his feet. His presence was ominous, the lights flickering to his power as he walked towards them. Actually, they just forgot to pay the electric bill. Jess, however, didn't find it frightening. Quite the opposite, she whispered "Glatze" under her breath, making note of his bald head. Shooting her with menacing eyes like an arrow, Jess silenced herself.
"So, you four—"
"Five," Lori corrected him, jumping up and down to be noticed.
Letting her comment go, he continued, "You five want to be part of the Death Eaters?"
The five nodded. They waited for the speech, impressed by his impressiveness.
"Okay, give them the sign-in sheet."
"Well, that was easier done than said. And Sirius said it would be hard…" Kris scoffed.
"True, but…" Matt started, readjusting his grip on Joey's limp arms. "…he kind of killed Joey."
"He killed Joey! That bastard!" Lori shouted.
"Don't worry, he'll come back in next chapter," Jess grunted, readjusting her grip on Joey's legs.
"Well, Joey had it coming. He did insult his middle name."
"You know, I agree with Joey. What kind of a middle name is Marvolo, a washing detergent?!" Kris shouted.
"I HEARD THAT!" Voldemort shouted down the hall.
Back at Grimauld Place:
"Hey, Sirius, check this out. The kids say Voldemort's middle name is Marvolo."
Sirius looked at Remus questioningly.
"Marvolo?" Sirius questioned. "What kind of a heck middle name is that, a washing detergent?"
A/N: Okay, well, there's chapter 2… Just wanted to clear a few things up. Glatze is the German word for someone with a bald head. And two, Sirius will be alive in my…would you really call it a story? I don't think he deserved to die…neither did Joey but it was for the comical cause okay, so this isn't really comical. Remember, my marshmallows are good when roasted by flames!!
