Chapter 7

Disclaimer: None of Harry Potter characters are mine. Nick and the others are mine. So do not take them… grrr arrrgghh. Not that any sane person would, but I think they are great characters.

PS: I hope the page breaks work this time. This time I will just use capital Q's. Please don't get confused. I will try to edit the chapters; so the breaks are obvious. If you see something that is repeated it probably means a change in P.O.V.

PPS: This is just a Batty story!

PPPS: Sorry watch out for strong language.

"Well the story begins long ago, longer than even Dracula has been around. In the beginning there were two gods. I say gods but neither of them had genders. They were androgynous and they lived in harmony. There was the god of the night and he ruled all of the night creatures. Vampires were his favorite because they were created in his image. He made the first of them by sharing his immortal blood. Dracula was the first he made and then Dracula made another and the cycle went on. Creatures of the night were also made of the day god's people who had died. The night god began to get more creatures, so he and the day god worked out an agreement. When creatures of the day died they became creatures of night, and when creatures of the night died they became creatures of the day so it worked out well. Dracula was not the first vampire made although he likes to say that he was. In truth the first vampire made was named Morana. She was the one who discovered the evil god and his plan. There was a god that was the greatest in the world. He was so beautiful and looked so pure that nobody thought of him as a bad god. But he was; he was so evil and he was planning something awful. He secretly created an amulet; that had the power to destroy all of the other gods. It had his evil wicked energy and corrupted any people or gods with weak morality. Morana had the strongest morality in this world; she had a deep belief in good and evil. Her belief in what was good and evil was so strong that no one could make her doubt herself. She figured out what he was up to and tried to convince the others. They banished her, she left saying she would only help them if they got down on their hands and knees and apologize. Slowly the evil god began to play the gods against each other. Finally the evil god showed his true colors and destroyed the night and the day gods. The day and night god did one last thing before they were destroyed completely. They did a spell so they would be reborn over and over, they also shot the evil god with what remand of their power. He recreated their spell and he would be reborn every time they were. Harry Potter is the reborn Night God, Ginny Weasley is the reborn Day god, and Voldemorte is the reborn evil god. The evil god doesn't peacefully pick a new host he thrusts his ways into their mind. The day god and night god stay with one line and slowly slip in. That is why neither Ginny or Harry was aware when they were entered. Tom was though; let me tell you he was." She paused here to see if they had understood this all. She stood and walked towards the window, Violetta was worried. Gabrielle sniffed and Violetta went to her and put her hand on Gabrielle's shoulder. Gabrielle pushed her hand away and snarled. Violetta snarled back at Gabrielle.

"Then I begin to take my role in the story. I was betrothed to an awful English man. My serving lady was with me. Once she met my husband to be she began to realize that I needed help. I will let her explain the rest of the story." Violetta glared at her and snarled viciously. Gabrielle snarled and backhanded her on to the floor, Violetta landed on her feet but barley. "You are still my servant, you slut. You bitch." Violetta snarled as well, she took off her coat. She punched Gabrielle across the train compartment. Gabrielle smashed into the window and broke it, she was hanging out. Before anyone could do anything, Violetta grabbed her and pulled her in. Violetta hugged her furiously.

"Don't bring up the past, I missed you. I love you, you know that." Gabrielle smiled and hugged her back as Hermoine whispered a quiet spell. Violetta continued hugging Gabrielle. Violetta ended the hug and looked over at Harry and the other audience members. "In 1650, we were in England. It was rainy and awful and we missed our friends. I was serving my mistress as I was supposed to. I was bid by her to go and see her husband-to-be. If he was awful I was to get help and help her run away as quickly as possible. If he was wonderful, I was to go to her and tell her. That night I ran out in the rain in my beautiful dress, with my traveling cloak on. I ran to where I knew that the Earl of Essex lived. I arrived and was shown in as the maid-in-waiting for Lady Gabrielle Demanon. He was attractive but I was apprehensive, he had dark hair and dark eyes. He was a typical tall dark and handsome, I was astounded by how handsome he was. He walked up to me.

'Violetta Despringetemps? I presume?'

'Yes, I am. Sir.' He drew closer to me, and pressed his body up against mine. He then proceeded to back me into a wall; I couldn't stop him there was nothing I could. He put a hand against my bodice, he then said very simply.

'I cannot wait to be married to Lady Gabrielle, then I can have you as much as I want." He put his hand up my skirt. I stepped on his foot and ran down the hall. He chased me and caught me. I screamed. I then did one thing he didn't expect me to. When he forced his tongue in my mouth, I bit with all I had. I almost choked on the flood of blood that came out of his mouth into mine. I then stomped on his foot and spat the blood in his face. I then kicked him in the groin and ran with all I could. I ran out of his house and down the street. I knew that he would pursue me, so I ran into the red light district earning more than a few odd glances. I had adrenaline running through my veins helping me run faster. I finally found a dingy tavern and stepped inside. My chest was heaving with emotion and exertion. I saw him, the man that would help Gabrielle and myself.

'Help.' I said and my chest heaved with exertion. I was in pain because my bodice was too tight. He walked over to me, his hazel eyes looked deep into my eyes.

'Of course, my lady what do you want me to do?' I looked at him.

'My lady is being forced to marry. Her husband is awful he will hurt me, and my lady and am very sure of this. You must get us out of here.' He shook his black hair out of his eyes and then he nodded and smiled,

'I will help you, but you must sneak out tomorrow evening and meet me here. I will help you both.' So we showed up the next evening. Aubrey changed both of us, that evening and it was a revelation. Suddenly I was no longer the servant and Gabrielle and I were equals. Aubrey, Gabrielle and I joined forces with the King of Otherworld. Then one year the evil God took over, somehow he got into Otherworld and took over calling himself king. Unfortunately, I wasn't there. I was out travailing with my new love, Aubrey. Gabrielle was there though and she can tell you about how awful it was." Gabrielle smiled and said slowly.

"But of course." She sat down and Draco closed the space between them and hung on her. "Michael was awful, he was cruel. He did so many bad things mostly to Nick." Nick looked away and got up and walked out of the train compartment. Nick slammed down the door and continued off.

"Let him go, he doesn't need to hear this." Stanton interjected. Gabrielle nodded, she continued.

"I was the one that Michael chose to fetch Nick everytime Michael wanted some company. I couldn't handle it and I ran. I ran as far as I could from someone I assumed was the true side of the Night God. I met Tom Riddle and helped what I saw as pure human. He was so nice, and sweet and intelligent. Then he went to Hogwarts. Little did I know that Dracula, Emily, Aubrey and Violetta had returned with a new-found vampire, Taurian, and the true form of the Night God. Leo Micaldina. Destroyed Michael and saved Other World. He also put up a barrier so no one can enter unless they belong there. Leo helped Nick get better. Nick now jokes and laughs. Before he was a shell of a human. Leo also set Nick and Taurian up. They were too perfect for each other. Nick finally began to become the young man you know. But there is still a shadow of pain in his eyes. I was still helping Tom, when the evil god took him over I stayed with him. But he just got worse and worse. I can no longer serve him because he has turned into Michael. I want to save Tom and get rid of the evil god." Gabrielle finished, slightly flushed. Harry stood and looked at her.

"Thank you Gabrielle. If you wish you may rejoin my side, I would be honored to have you." She smiled. "But for now I must go find Nick. I am worried about him being so upset." Harry got up but the train slowed and stopped. They were finally at Hogwarts. He became excited. Everyone in the compartment stood and headed out onto the platform. Gabrielle lingered as did Violetta.

"Violetta, I am sorry, I missed you. Please forgive me."

"I am sorry as well. Please forgive me." The two women embrace and then follwed everyone out. Aubrey was waiting on the platform. He grabbed Violetta and kissed her deeply. He then gently kissed Gabrielle on both cheeks.

"I was wrong to council Violetta to kill you. Please forgive me dark child of mine." She kissed him on both cheeks and then climbed into a carriage with her swan and the day queen and night king. Ron and Hermoine joined them as well as Stanton. Violetta and Aubrey walked to Hogsmeade to get there new home.

Nick struggled against the strong hands that held him. He could felt the train stop. Suddenly something hit from behind and he fainted.
