Hi, everyone. This is a story that takes place in the alternative reality of Harry Potter and The Cursed Child, where Voldemort killed Harry and took over the world. This story is about the next generation, fighting in the darkness to get a bright future.
Enjoy!
September 1, 2017. Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
The gate of the castle was open in cold wind. The pure-blood wizards walked into the biggest magic school in the world with pride. It had started. Their journey of serving the mighty Lord Voldemort had started!
Lord Voldemort's adult followers had treated them well. They taught them how to use a wand, how to torture a Muggle-Born, and how to control one's soul by just a simple spell.
Fortunately, they did not teach them the Death Curse yet. Voldemort thought that this young cuties would kill each other too easily if they learned this in their first year. He did not want too many pure-bloods to die. Every drop of their blood was a waste to his world.
"New students! Gather in the Great Hall!" Someone shouted to this group of students.
They listened. After few minutes they found the entrance to the Great Hall. Inside, four giant tables were placed in two rows. There were snake decorations everywhere on the wall, and on the table.
The first-years sat in front of the first table. Soon, the rest joined.
This year, there were so many famous people in Hogwarts. The children of famous people, actually. Somehow, they were all in the same year.
In the middle of the group sat Scorpius Malfoy, the son of Draco Malfoy of the Ministry. His dad was a famous hero in the Battle of Hogwarts against Harry Potter. Voldemort said it himself.
Of course, he was in the center. Many people asked him questions, many people wanted to become his friends.
Scorpius was very handsome, just like his father. His expression was serious. His wand in his left hand.
Five minutes later, the headmistress of Hogwarts, Dolores Umbridge arrived. Those first-years clapped happily with respect in their eyes.
The headmistress sat down in a large chair. Something unusual was that there was another chair beside hers. Much more higher, like a throne. It was decorated with snakes, of course.
"Welcome to Hogwarts, everyone. A new, pure year! Are you excited?" Asked Umbridge loudly.
"YES!"
"This year, we have many famous students from famous houses. Ancient houses. They, will make the school more exciting! In order to celebrate their arrivals, I invited The Augurey, the super-talented daughter of Lord Voldemort and now the Second-in-Command of the Death Eaters. She's a little bit late I assume, but that's okay. We could wait."
The student sat on the left of Scorpius looked up.
"The Augurey. She will be here?" He asked quietly.
"Probably. We will be honoured if she's here." Scorpius said in a confident tone.
"The Augurey is here!" Announced a voice.
The daughter of Voldemort flew into the Great Hall. Again, the students clapped.
She looked less than twenty, but she was already really powerful. Her eyes like the eyes of a snake, a hungry snake. Despite that many young wizards respect her, most of them fear her more than her father.
Lord Voldemort was old now, really old. When Harry Potter was executed nineteen years ago, the Dark Lord decided that it was a good idea for him to give power to the next generation. He separated his soul again into seven pieces to keep him alive, but he could not manage everything himself now. The Augurey was his most loyal servant, and the leader of the new generation.
"Brother, you know that the wand can cast a spell that..." Scorpius asked the one beside him, but he waved him off.
"The Augurey is here. Show some respect. We could talk about your wand later."
He looked very much like Scorpius, only taller and had a more hardened expression. He looked at the direction of Augurey, which had already sat down onto her high chair. His hand grabbed his wand. He seemed to be very nervous.
"Brother? What's wrong?" Asked Scorpius worriedly.
"There's someone that is not supposed to be here. Near the Augurey."
"Welcome, Lady Augurey! We are all honoured!" Umbridge stood up and bowed to Augurey like a dog bowed to its mistress.
"Dolores Umbridge." Said Augurey in a cold voice, "That is your name, right?"
Umbridge knelt, "Y-yes."
"I see. You are not something big to consider. I came here because..."
"WHATCH OUT!" The one beside Scorpius suddenly yelled. No one had noticed a shadow moved toward Augurey quickly. She did not even notice.
Everyone turned toward the direction that the wizard was pointing at. Knowing that his disguise was no use, the shadow revealed himself. A man looked nearly forty with dirty clothes. He was very thin, but his eyes showed his power.
He had a wand on his right hand. It pointed straight toward Augurey.
"Who are you?" Demanded the daughter of Voldemort, not even had time to take out her wand.
"Not important! I'm a member of Dambledore's Army. I'm here to destroy you dark witch!" The man raised his wand, "Goodbye, Daughter of Voldemort! Avada..."
"Impedimenta!"
The little wizard unleashed a powerful spell and knocked down the invader.
He turned around, and saw who casted the spell.
"You! You planned to stop me from killing her for your own good? Kid, don't get brainwashed!"
"Expelliarmus!"
His wand flew into the boy's hand.
The Augurey, right now completely recovered from the shock, took out her wand. She did not kill the killer immediately, she was waiting for the child to do it.
Breaking his enemy's wand in half, the "brother" of Scorpius Malfoy walked toward the man.
"You are a first-year." Said the man.
"I am." The child raised his wand.
"What's your name?"
Instead of telling him his name, he said, "You are dead."
The man nodded. "I failed, I will die."
"Who exactly sent you? You attempt to destroy our world!" Yelled the wizard with hatred in his eyes, "Dambledore's Army? He and Harry Potter have all died in the war twenty years ago, where's Dambledore's Army from?"
The man smiled sadly, "You are brainwashed, child. Voldemort is evil, he killed many wizards, including pure-bloods. You are very talented. Casting two powerful spells in your first year? Don't use your talents in the wrong way."
Hearing the word "evil", the wizard stepped back a little.
"Are you mad?" He asked, unsure about what to do.
"Look around, child. Check out people around you. You will know the answer. You will know..." The man never got the chance to finish his sentence.
Green light shot toward him, and he was dead.
Scorpius' brother turned to Augurey.
"No. Your teacher casted the spell. Not me."
He turned toward the professors, and found the one who killed the man.
"Professor Snape." He said.
"This man just insulted my lord, Augurey. I don't want him to brainwash the child who saved you." The Potion Professor said coldly, "The Death Curse is the easiest thing to do."
Augurey ignored Snape. She asked the child, "What's your name?"
"Romulus Malfoy, son of Draco and Astoria Malfoy."
Everyone inside the Great Hall, except for Augurey, looked at Romulus in shock.
"Not many people know me." Explained Romulus, "Scorpius is my twin brother. I left home when I was three, and my father erased my existence from the family tree. He did everything to hide me, and then trained me hard. He told me that the House of Malfoy needs a new powerful one to avoid being defeated by the House of Lestrange. That's why I could cast those two spells easily."
"You wanna defeat us? The most loyal family of Lord Voldemort? You, Malfoy, your father did not fight well in the Battle of Hogwarts against Potter, everyone knows that! He was counted as a hero, that is because our lord is really nice. You little punk..."
A child of Lestrange family started shouting at Romulus with abusive words. Romulus started getting mad. He raised his wand and cast a spell without hesitation.
"CRUCIO!"
Lestrange yelled in pain again and again. He was lifted up toward the ceiling helplessly.
"Marcus Lestrange, your family caused enough trouble! Your father unleashed a curse on my mother, nearly killing her! Most loyal family, yes! Today, it changed!"
He put him down suddenly, making the poor Lestrange blacked out.
"Enough!" Augurey yelled, "Really, enough!"
Romulus turned to her, waited.
"Romulus Malfoy, big contribution to our world today. You are appointed as one of the nine perfects. You can order around almost everyone. Is that enough?" She asked.
"Thank you, Lady Augurey."
"And now, a warning. You should not torture pure-bloods from ancient houses, they are just like you. Every drop of their blood is a loss. I don't care what problem you have with Lestrange family, they are still loyal to Lord Voldemort. Am I clear?"
"Yes. Yes. Yes." Nodded Romulus, still not calming down.
Augurey did not seem to care. She hated Lestrange too, just because one of them dared to marry her mother, the one only her father deserved.
She turned to Umbridge, who had knelt again.
"Umbridge, I'll leave Romulus to you. Pure-blood, natural leader skill, what he will do in this school is now up to you." She flew away without another word.
Umbridge looked terrified. She quickly stood up and walked toward Romulus with lowered head.
"Ah, Romulus, dear...I believe you will become the Minister of Magic in ten years...no, in five years...no, I mean..."
"Thank you, Professor." Replied Romulus with respect, "Now, what should we do with the dead body?"
"You mean George Weasley? Burn his body into nothingness." Snape said beside them.
Romulus nodded in agreement. Umbridge followed quickly.
The body was dragged away.
