Dark Betrayal

Ch.6

Lucius Malfoy always leads to Tom

Ginny woke up abruptly, confused and disoriented. She heard dripping water and wondered vaguely if it had rained and if the roof was leaking. She tried to move only to feel cold metal biting into her wrists.

'What the....' Then she remembered. Deatheaters! She tried to escape the shackles only to find that if she moved to much, she would rub her wrists raw and that nothing was going to come of it. She looked at her surroundings and wasn't surprised to see that she was in a dark dungeon. The only lighting coming from a torch hanging on the wall. She wondered what Tom could possibly want from her...He couldn't know that she knew where Harry was staying, he couldn't. Not that she really knew, but to tell them anything would be a disaster. She thought on all the reasons why Tom would want her until she was brought down to earth by a horrid screech, the sound of rusted metal on rusted metal. Ginny looked up to see a huge iron door appear on the far side of the room, then open. A man clad in the usual Deatheater garb walked in.

"Ah, Miss. Weasley, how nice of you to join us." Spoke a smooth cultured voice from behind the expressionless white mask. Ginny knew immediately that it was Lucius Malfoy. She also knew that if she were to take off that mask she would see a familiar smirk on his face. His son had the same one and it had been directed at her in school more times than she could count.

"Sorry, Malfoy, but I'm afraid I don't agree." Ginny spoke in a sweet voice, not knowing what his reaction would be. She was surprised when all he did was walk over and undo the shackles , then replace them with a different pair that weren't attached to the wall.

" You will be coming with me, Miss. Weasley. My master wishes to speak to you." He started pulling her out of the dungeon by a long chain.

"Well, I'm terribly sorry but could you tell him that I won't be able to come. I'm not in proper attire, you see." She still spoke in that honeyed voice, with a clearly sarcastic smile on her face. This time though, Malfoy did do something about it.

" Listen to me, little girl, you will be coming with me and if you do anything stupid I will not hesitate to teach you a lesson, understand." He spoke harshly and was clearly not joking so Ginny let herself be dragged through a lot of fancy corridors and up plenty of stairs with only one last comment:

"Ironic, isn't it Malfoy, that every time I meet Tom, you are the one leading me to him." They finally came to a stop in front of two grand looking mahogany doors. Lucius strode in, dragging Ginny all the way. It was a huge room that was empty except for a tall figure sitting on a throne in the middle of the room. The throne was chilling, It was decorated with carvings of dead bodies and snakes, burning trees and people. The throne looked like it was carved from bone, maybe that of a giants. It was huge, the top of Ginny's head could barely reach the arms. In the room there was a fire place that had a blue fire lit in it. It was cold in here, colder , even, than the dungeons and Ginny suspected it had something to do with the fire being blue.

Lucius stopped a couple feet from the throne and kneeled, keeping his head bowed in respect. He had dragged Ginny down with him, though she was staring straight at Tom defiantly. She felt a twisting in her stomach. 'He thinks of himself as a king, a King of Darkness and all that is evil.' She shivered. A couple minutes passed in silence, the blue fire obviously didn't make warm crackling noises like normal fire, until Tom finally spoke.

"Miss. Weasley, it seems that you know something. Something that I need to know, and you are going to tell me."
