"Potter…Put my kid down"
"Why?" He asked stupidly, looking the baby as if he didn't know what she was.
"Potter…Give me my Daughter…" I could hear the fear in my Lord's voice…In me, you could see it in everything.
"So it's your daughter…and who else's?" I stepped foreword. "Mine. This will be the only time I'm going to beg you for anything. Please Potter, hand over our child"
Potter laughed. He laughed as thought mocking my Lord. I swallowed. I never thought it would come to this. The Dark Lord and Lady begging Potter for something. Potter finally found the core to our most recent found power.
"How 'bout not?" And with that, he disapparated.
"Fuck! I didn't know he could do that!" I shouted looking around.
"Except it! Come on! Snape give me your arm!" While my Lord called the Death Eaters, I ran around the house looking for Potter. I ran into a group of followers who were talking on the side of the house. "Potter's here! He has the heiress!" I shouted. They all freaked out and pulled out their wands and started to run in different directions. I ran down to the graveyard. I spotted Potter running towards a groups of his pathetic friends. The pulled out their wands and pointed them at me. Potter spun around and pointed his wand at Serpentine. I stopped in my tracks, wand still in my pocket and still unprotected. I laughed exhaustedly. "Are you going to kill a baby, Potter? You'll take after the Dark Lord…you'll make a perfect son." I slowly pulled out my wand. The brown haired boy to my left glanced at Harry and looked around uncomfortably, he looked familiar. Longbottom…the weakest link of them all. I heard screams and shouts up at the house. I looked over my shoulder and then back to Potter.
"The Order is here?" He nodded.
"You still didn't answer my question, Potter"
"And I don't think he will, Bella." Came a calm voice. Potter's friends backed away from me and the girls screamed. I felt a cool hand take hold of my waist. "I know Potter all too well, don't I Harry? Ever since you were a baby…" He let go of me and walk towards Potter. Potter tightened his grip on Serpentine and his friends back far way from the Dark Lord in fear. Master surveyed Potter with a mixed bag of feelings in his eyes. I could see hate but also pain and exhaustion along with anger. "I can see that you want revenge….I tried to kill you as a baby, and now you want to kill my child. It's only fair I understand….So…Go ahead." "What! My Lord"
"No, Bella…let him, he deserves it. In fact. He can kill all of us…I mean…you get to kill me...who you've always wanted to. And you can kill her. She killed your godfather. And you get the next best thing, our child…hell, where's Severus? He killed the old fool." My Lord sighed. "Shut up. I'll kill you and her and her!" "Go ahead." Potter pointed his wand at Master, who just laughed. After a few moments, "I knew you couldn't do it…It's best if you just hand over my child and go run on home with your friends and play on your brooms." "Crucio!" The light hit my Lord and he stumbled back. He didn't scream but he seemed to have gotten a small effect of the curse. He shook it off and sneered. He pulled from his pocket a dagger and stabbed Potter in the stomach. He scooped up Serpentine and hurried over to me. I took her in my arms and he turned back to Potter and started to stride over to him. Potter's friend's who ran over to help him spotted the Dark Lord and ran back into hiding. "You think you can get away with this, Harry! You may have hurt me before…but never again"
"I've destroyed all of your Horcruxes…and now you're left. You'll pay for what you did to my Parents"
"No Potter. You got most of the Horcruxes…and I've had to destroy one of them…but there's still 2 left"
"2"
"Yes Potter, 2"
"But…no…there's only you…" Master shook his head. He suddenly pointed to Serpentine and Me. I stared at him. "You missed one. And you were just holding her." I looked down at Serpentine, her bright blue eyes looked up at me. I looked up at my Lord and held my baby close to me.
"You see Harry…I made 6 Horcruxes for the time being…Nagini, my Diary, Slytherin's locket, Hufflepuff's cup, Marvolo Gaunt's ring, and my body. I knew I had to make a 7th soon enough before you've gotten all of the others. When Bella had confessed her love and devotion to me over a year ago, she gave me an idea…to continue the Slytherin line, that way, in case something happens to me…there's always a new generation of…evil." He chuckled. But I refused it…but after, I reconsidered it and we decided to start a family. But it wasn't until the night of conception that I realized that I had given Bella here a part of my soul to deliver to the world. I made sure that the heir or heiress was well-protected, not letting her out of my sight when I realized that Nagini was jealous. After the heiress was born, I had to destroy Nagini in hopes of protecting the last horcrux. And so…now you lay…at my mercy again, bleeding, and waiting as to what I'm going to do with you and your…friends." Potter's friends gasped and backed up farther. Potter stared with a frown on his face at Serpentine. You may have gotten away many times before Potter…but not this time. And now…Bella, go and hide with Serpentine"
"What? Why!" "Just go. If anything happens to me, keep her safe! Don't let her out of your sight!" I hesitated and then ran. I ran out of the graveyard just as Potter's friends ran after me. I ran into the woods and dodged branches. I wasn't too far in front of them. I made it to the river and looked behind me. They were coming and fast. I ran along the river's bank and jumped over washed up logs. I kept Serpentine Close to my chest and kept frequent check behind my back. After 15 minutes of running, I swore they were gone. I stopped and looked around. I had no idea where I was and wanted to know so much what was going on with my Lord. I kept telling myself that it will be alright. I looked down at Serpentine and kissed her. "Shhh ..it's alright, honey…Daddy's fine. They're not coming after us anymore…we're safe." I whispered to her. "THERE SHE IS!" I looked up the river and the bushy brown haired girl ran at me. I clutched the baby close to me and started running again until I came to a waterfall.
