Chapter thirty-one: Versing Lord Voldemort. Fuck

Barry ran blindly till he hit a wall.

"You know Saucepan, if I'm not mistaken...Your getting more and more stupid..."

Barry knew exactly what he was doing even if Tom didn't. He grabbed the wall, pulled himself up and shoved his hands into his pocket, that's when his fingers ran over what he was looking for, the mirror Jub gave him, She said he should carry a mirror around everywhere, because 'People care about people who care about themselves'. She also said, 'Cause most of the time you look like crap, probably because you can't see what you look like.' Jub was such a nice honest person. Barry held up the mirror so he could see behind him, he thought he'd rather be killed while he was unconcious than while conscious - less painful.

"Saucepan I never knew you were a pretty boy!"

"Piss off Tom!"

"No, incase you've forgotten Saucepan...I'm in this battle too...I'm telling the snake what to do. Kill him!"

"I can tell it's a differcult job for you..." Barry said as he ducked the snake's fangs, which instead sank into the solid rock.

"Oh look Saucepan! Dumbledore has sent his defender a hat! Catch, if you can!"

Barry felt a hat hit him squarely in the face as he turned around to try and find it, Tom laughed a sardistic laugh. Barry dodged yet another of the snake's attempts to eat him. Or at least kill him.

Barry grabbed the hat and put his hand inside, not knowing what he'd find. He found a...

"What the fuck is Dumbledore fucking thinking!" Barry rolled across the floor, away from the snake, trying to read Dumbledores loopy handwriting,

Remember Friends are there forever.

Even when times aren't the best friends always find a way to help you.

Even when they pass away their still there.

Don't ever doubt your friends abilities.

Albus Dumbledore

(Professor to you, Barry)

"That's all well and good, but how's that going to fucking help me!" Barry yelled to no one in particular as he attempt to hit the snake with a large-ish rock off the floor of the chamber.

"You didn't really think that was going to do anything did you Saucepan?"

"Oi! Barry Need any help?" Don called from the door.

"You! What the fuck are you doing here!" Tom shouted angrily at Don, Andy, Jub, Jonny and Nick. Where the hell's Knockharp? Barry wondered.

"Well, don't you think it's a little unfair to have two against one?" Andy yelled back.

"And five against two is any better!" Tom argued, "This is my fight!" he began to jump up down, throwing a tantrum.

"Who are you anyway?" Jonny asked.

The snake seemed to finally notice there was company.

"CLOSE YOUR EYES!" Barry yelled in warning, "IT'S THE BASILISK!"

Everyone's eyes shut straight away. They began to run aroung the outside of the chamber, confusing the snake. They must have thought about what they were going to do before hand... Barry continued to think. Well it was all well in good that they were confusing the snake, but it wasn't going to get them anyway either. Barry began to walk over to Tom, maybe he could some how kill him or...Well do something...Tom saw Barry making his way over to him,

"Get the boy! Kill the boy! Ignore the others!"

The snake was still confused he didn't know which boy Tom meant, but it did leave Andy and Jub alone. Barry finally made it up to Tom, wand raised.

"How old are you Barry?"

"Fourteen."

"That makes you...Second year?"

"Yea, what's it to you?"

"Do you know any unforgivable curses?"

"No..."

"So what are you going to do to me?"

It then hit Barry, what was he going to do? He shoved his wand in his pocket, then brought back his fist and punched Tom squarely in the face.

"Arg fuck! You studid lidle secong year!" Tom yelled, his nose began to bleed, Barry punched him again,

"Call off your snake!"

"Lik hell'd!" Barry punched him again,

"Didn't catch that!"

"Enough'd!" Tom swung and hit Barry in the stomach knocking him to the floor, his wand flew out of his pocket. Tom bent down, picked it up, muttered something as he tapped his nose.

"I tried to play fairly with you...But you leave me no choice. I don't have patience for silly little boys trying to play hero. So now, I'm going to kill you. But I'm going to have some fun first!"

Barry braced himself as Tom raised his wand, but then surprised him, when Tom pointed the wand at himself. Tom changed shape, size and looks, till he looked identical to Barry.

"Hey! How did you dot that! You can only take on the identity of someone with Polyscotch Potion!"

"Barry, Barry, anything's possible with Dark Magic," He winked again, because he knew how much it was disturbing Barry, (Somewhere in the Hospital Wing Lemo was tossing in her bed, muttering 'Stop coming onto my boyfriend, you fagot...), then turned to Barry's friends,

"Guys! I got him down! All you have to do is kill him, while I tend to the snake!"

Tom ran off towards the snake, as though he was going to attack the snake, as Don, Andy, Jub, Jonny and Nick ran over to Barry, wands raised,

"No, guys don't! It's me! Barry!"

Jub rolled her eyes,

"Bullshit, you just made yourself look like Barry to confuse us! We're not stupid!"

Just as Barry was about to protest, the ghost of Winston flew from one of the chamber's walls and made out that he was going to attack the snake. Admittedly he did confuse the snake, but didn't harm it in any way, (The snake was the sharpest tool in the shed...).

"Winston! Barry look it's Winston!" Andy shouted to Tom.

Tom temporarily looked confused, but quickly covered it up assuming it was the Weasel,

"Winston, buddy! I missed you so much!" Tom cried with false happiness, within moments Don, Andy, Nick and Jonny all piled on top of Tom,

"What are you doing you dumb fuckers!" Tom yelled from the bottom of the pile.

"Your Tom! Not Barry!" Jonny shouted.

"What are you on about? He's the imposter!" Tom's hand appeared out of the pile pointing in Barry's general dirrection as he climbed to his feet.

"No he's not..." Andy grunted, "Barry hated Winston, he'd be likely to say, 'What the fuck, I was hoping, you'd be gone forever you little rodent!'"

As they continued to fight, Barry made his way over to the front of the chamber where the small black book was lying. Barry had it all figured out, he didn't know what made him think it...But he thought if he was to destroy the book, it'd kill Tom. Maybe even bring Minnie back...Barry picked up the book and opened it up towards the back, there was only five more empty pages left as the book continued to write itself. Something sharp, something sharp...He thought looking around, there seem to be nothing. That's when he remember for the second time that day the mirror Jub had got him. He'd rather seven years bad luck, than a life with to Voldemorts...He smashed the mirror on the ground, picked up a sharp piece of mirror and rammed it into the book, just as the Basilisk came up behind him. He spun around and thrust the mirror piece into it's mouth. It's sharp fangs clasped down on Barry's arm, the mirror piece shred through the monster mouth. It screamed in pain, as did Barry as he closed his eyes, willing them not to open. Willing this nightmare to be over...There came a loud sqawk and blood began to splirt onto Barry face. Without relising it, Barry opened his eyes and saw a magnificent bird clawing and pecking at the snake's face, it's eyes were now completely ruined.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!" Tom yelled, his voice began to become distant, "Your killing the Basilisk, you bastard! Your killing me! LORD VOLDEMORT! KILLING ME! Don't you worry Saucepan! My present self, wherever I am, will get you! Don't you worry!" Tom Puzzle then disappeared, as though he was a light and the light switched out. (Hey author! Yea?That was the dumbest simile I have ever heard! Shut up Barry, I can kill you, you know... Oh right sorry about that...Could you permantly get rid of Winston? Shut up Barry.)
