#PARSELTONGUE#
The incident about the troll spread like a wildfire. A sudden 150 points rise on Slytherin's log didn't go unnoticed by the school. Soon everyone knew that Corvus had saved a Gryffindor girl from the troll, and killed it. Everyone's respect for him just doubled overnight. Those who were considering dark and evil were shocked to the core. Its not everyday that the next Dark Lord help a Gryffindor.
The wound on his hand was worse than it looked, his upper bicep had a severe deep cut in it, shredding his tissue of the hand. Thankfully no nerves or blood vessels were damaged but he had to stay the night in the infirmary much to his irritation. Madam Pomfrey had insisted that he stay in the watch. After some potions and mumbling about how his father always ended up in the Infirmary Pomfrey force fed some pain killing potions and a vile of dreamless potion in Corvus' mouth. As a result Corvus was in deep sleep within minutes.
Next day he was bombarded with question about his 'epic' battle with the troll. Many congratulated him, and obviously his fan club had gotten bigger. Many even thought that his legends might be true; after all he did save a girl in distress from a raging monster, although all did not have the same view.
Ronald Weasley considered him more of a threat than before. He had convinced himself that Corvus was evil, and couldn't see past his hate. He often made hateful comments after the quidditch incident. He wasn't the only one to do so, Dudley Dursley was also Corvus' prime hater. The jealous boy couldn't understand why everybody fawned over him.
As the November approached, the temperature fell by quite a few degrees. The air became very cold and a thick layer of snow could be found around the castle. The lake froze and a rock hard layer of ice appeared on top of it. But the blistering cold brought good news for the quidditch fanatics, as the year's quidditch season had begun.
Everyone was ecstatic for the first match on Sunday, which was between the arch rivals – Slytherins and Gryffindors. It would be Corvus' first official match. Marcus drove them insanely through the practice. However, the Slytherin's secret weapon a.k.a. Corvus Black was a well kept secret. Nobody, other than the snakes knew, he was playing. His broom was sent to Marcus, and Warrington was carrying it around. The boy was exceptionally happy to flaunt 'his' new Nimbus 2001 around the castle.
The day before the match, Corvus, Draco and Blaize were returning from the grounds, when they saw a limping Snape walking back to his office.
"Are you okay Professor? Do you want us to take you to the infirmary?" asked Corvus with a worried expression.
Snape waved his arm in a dismissing manner and said "No need Mr. Black; I just twisted my ankle on the stairs. I just came here to give my best wishes for tomorrow's match. Many have great expectations from you". He then saw Draco and Blaize and then continued in a cold dangerous tone which simply meant pain "You better play as expected, or else I will make sure that the word quidditch never escape that mouth" and with that said, he turned and walked away limping.
Corvus just sighed, Snape will always be Snape. After all he has his reputation to look after.
"I never saw blood coming from a twisted ankle" Blaize pointed out.
Corvus was broken out of his thoughts hearing this, he turned towards the direction from where Snape was coming from and said "He was bitten by the three headed dog on the forbidden corridor on the third floor."
"What? There's a 3 headed dog?" shouted Draco and Blaize together.
Corvus turned towards them with a confused expression and said "Didn't I tell you? Last week I was unable to sleep so I went for a stroll and ended up there, I opened a door and saw a huge three headed dog there, it was sleeping on a trap door."
"A big dog guarding a trap door, there must be something of great value down there" said Draco.
Corvus smirked and said "Are you thinking, what I am thinking? Dear cousin."
"Indeed dear cousin" said Draco with a smirk of his own. And with that they continued their way to their common room. Blaize watched the interaction and just shook his head at their antics.
Next day we find the whole school in the stands around the Quidditch pitch. It was the first game of the season, between the arch enemies, Gryffindor the house of brave versus the cunning Slytherins.
The stands were fully packed. Everyone was very excited for the upcoming match. Lucius had managed to get a seat for Pollux with the board of governers. There was no way in hell, he would miss the fist official match of his Great-Grandson.
In the dressing room of the Slytherins, Marcus was explaining the last minute details. "Okay, guys this is our first match, and will be our toughest one at that. Miles, don't let the quaffle pass you, watch out for the curve shots, those bitches are good with it. Derrick, Bole just, kill anyone who comes in our way, and protect Higgs. They may be weasels but they know their jobs. Higgs stay away from the pitch, fly high and look out for the snitch. Wood has selected a third year for his new sneaker; make sure you torment the shit out of him. Lastly Black, just do your job, you will be in the centre, me being on the right flank and Roger being on the left. We will follow the three star formation. Now come lets kick some Gryffin-dork asses." They all formed a circle put their hand in circle and cheered together "SLYTHERIN" and walked towards the starting point to wait for the announcements.
In the stands as everyone settled down, the commentary started from the teachers box "Good Morning, and welcome to the first game of the season: Gryffindor versus Slytherin." There was a loud round of applause around the stands. "My name is Lee Jordan, and I am your commentator for this fine morning. For those who are new to the game, The Quidditch pitch has three goals at each end. There are three chasers in each team who try to put the Quaffle in these hoops. Each time they put it, They earn 10 points for their team. But watch out for the Bludgers! these are charmed balls which can knock you off your broom stick, but the two beaters on the team keep them away. Finally there's a keeper who guards the loops and a Seeker who chase the small golden winged ball called the snitch. Look out for it, it brings 150 points for your house."
"There's an announcement for all the quidditch fans out there. This year the quidditch championship will not be a knockout cup, instead it will have a points system. There will be 3 rounds before the knockout stage so each team will face other team thrice throughout the tournament. Each win will give 2 points on the points table and a tie will get 1 point each. If a team manages to win with a 300 or more points difference,they will be given another point as bonus. After the thrid round the team with highest points will play in the first qualifier, in which the winner will directly go to the finals where as the last two teams on the scoreboard will face each other in the first eliminator. The winner of the first eliminator will face the team who lost in the first qualifier in the second eliminator match. The winner of that match will then face the first team in the finals." That earned a lot of cheers around the crowd as everyone was ecstatic about the extra quidditch matches. This also meant that the teams would kill for coming on the top as it was a free ticket to the finals.
"Now lets introduce the teams, Coming from the northern end are the Gryffindors, led by the Captain Oliver wood, and The new Seeker, Morgan Cagedman, a fourth year, followed by the Beaters, Weasley twins and last but not the least, the Chasers Angelina Johnson, Katie Bell and Alicia Spinnet. I must say, they have the talent and extremely good looks and nice bod- sorry professor McGonagall" Every one laughed as they saw an irritated McGonagall bonking Lee's head.
"Now coming from the southern end, are the Slytherins, led by Captain Marcus Flint and Seeker Terrence Higgs, followed by the beaters, Peregrine Derrick and Lucian Bole, followed by the keeper Miles Bletchley and the remaining two chasers Roger Davis and CCCooorrrrvvvvuuuussss BBBllllaaaacccckkkk." Exclaimed Lee and the whole stadium erupted in cheers as they saw, Corvus flew out in the air.
"Now that's a surprise, how did you manage to hide it Severus?" asked McGonagall as she saw the young boy circling around the pitch making the students scream more. Snape just gave his patented smirk in return.
Marcus and Wood flew to the centre of the pitch to shake his hand with other captain, but it looked like they were having a hard battle with each other.
"Okay now everybody take their positions, I expect a clean and fair game" announced Hooch as she looked towards the Slytherin captain and got a knowing smirk in return.
"The Bludgers and the snitch is released, And Madam Hooch comes with the quaffle in her hand"
TWEEET!
"With that whistle the quaffle is released and Black moves with an incredible speed and snatches the quaffle from right under Bell's nose. he passes it on the right flank to Marcus, who dodges a nasty bludger and passes it to Davis on the left, who dives to dodge the weasley twin, and throws the quaffle in the air, BLACK comes out of nowhere and throws it on the left NO, IT WAS A FAKE! he shoots on the right hoop, Wood, saw this he sped towards the right hoop, but THE QUAFFLE SPINS IN ITS MID TRAJECTORY AND ENTERS THE MIDDLE HOOP!BLACK SCORES!10 POINTS TO SLYTHERIN! What an amazing curve shot, he has got the right skills, Wood had no chance of catching it. COME ON GRYFFINDOR SHOW THEM WHO'S THE BOS- sorry professor"
"Wood quickly passes the quaffle to Bell, who dodges the Slytherin Captain and a Bludger, Look at her go. She passes it to Johnson, who SHOOTS, but Bletchley comes out of nowhere and kicks the qauffle back to Davis, who passes it to Black, who is flying on an amazing speed, he peforms a Barrel roll and dodges Spinnet, and SHOOTS, ANOTHER 10 POINTS TO SLYTHERIN!"
"Wood throws the quaffle high up in the air towards Johnson but THE QUAFFLE IS INTERCEPTED BY BLACK, HE SPINS HIS BROOM AND SHOOTS THE QUAFFLE WHICH ENTERS THE LEFT HOOP, 10 POINTS TO SLYTHERINS! Wood just stood there, he didnt understand what happened. Merlin! this lad can play! Slytherins lead by 30-0" there were several cheers around the Slytherin stands and groans in the Gryffindor ones.
Everyone was amazed how good was Corvus on his Broom. For the next hour the Slytherin chasers were just killing the Gryffindors, They were leading by 450-170, in which 230 points were scored by Corvus alone. When he was not scoring or assisting, he was breaking the Gryffindor formations or just tormenting the shit out of the Gryffindor Seeker. He would just fly towards him with an amazing speed and only move when he was just inches apart. Whenever a Bludger was directed at him, he would fly towards the Gryffindor seeker, Blocking his view behind Corvus and pull up at the last moment. The poor boy was hit three times by a bludger. and after 30 minutes he was a nervous wreck. When Corvus was busy scoring his job was taken by Higgs.
Pollux was having time of his life. He watched with proud as his Great-Grandson flew like a professional. From the very first second Corvus had dominated the game. His 5 year training was paying off. Many were surprised to see a first year flying like that. Corvus was the youngest chaser in 150 years. Apparently Chasers needed a proper built and arm power, and the early training had just done that. Pollux's chest swelled in pride, every time someone complimented Corvus or talked to him about how Corvus was an extraordinary player.
After an hour and a half into the game, Slytherin had completely shredded the Gryffindor defense and confidence. They had forgotten their strategy and were just in an open brawl leaving multiple opening. Slytherin were leading by 570-260, when Higgs finally saw the snitch. He raced up to it and saw it going downwards, he followed it down and was unable to sense anyone behind. apparently the Gryffindor Seeker was oblivious to all the commotion in the pitch and was flying high in the air saving himself. Higgs sped towards the snitch as the ground closed faster. When he was only 5 feet from the ground he pulled up hard. He stood on his broom and reached the snitch but fell off his broom when he took another step.
"He dosen't look good, he stands up but I think he is going to puke. He raises his hand and thats the snitch. Terrence Higgs has caught the snitch, Slytherin wins by 720-260." said Lee in a depresed voice.
Slytherin had slaughtered the Gryffindors, securing a 460 point win. Slytherin got 2 points for winning and anothor bonus point because of the huge difference. Corvus was the man of the match, scoring 300 points in his very first match. Everyone was very impressed by the young lad especially his head of house. Snape could just see himself holding the Quidditch cup for next seven years.
Corvus made a last lap around the stadium waving to his 'fans' and finally disappered in the dressing room. In the dressing room he was tackled by his whole team, everyone was hugging him shouting and stamping their feet. Today they had slaughtered their 'natural enemy' and all thanks to the first year. After the shower and a stroll around the halls, Corvus went to do his homework. After the assignments were finished they went to the dining hall, where Marcus had instructed everyone not to eat.
When Corvus reached the Slytherin dorm, he was surprised to see the common room fully decorated in the party colors. The tables were stacked with various delicious food, and many crates of firewhisky and butter beer was lined in the corner. In the opposite corner a music player was set up and a huge stack of records were set beside it. 'so that's why he told us not to eat' thought Corvus. He was suddenly pulled by someone who led him to a desk in the centre of common room. He recognized that someone as Marcus. Flint climbed the desk and pulled Corvus too then said "Everyone… Today was the first match, and we have destroyed those idiotic Gryffindorks…and all of this was made possible by only one guy…Corvus Black." Announced Marcus as he patted Corvus's back and everyone cheered. He then passed a mug of butter beer to Corvus and announced "So this toast is for our win and to honor the man of the hour…TO BLACK" shouted Marcus as he raised his glass of firewhisky.
"TO BLACK" all the slytherin students shouted and emptied their glass in one gulp.
"Now as always, anyone below fourth year is not allowed near firewhisky. Now everyone enjoy the PARTY" and with that loud music started buzzing the common room. What surprised the first years was that even Snape had joined them for a drink before he retired in his office.
"How can you all play the music this loud? And why isn't Snape say anything?" asked Blaize frantically as he took a sip from his butter beer. Marcus just gave a grin and said "we are in the dungeon which is usually designed for the prisoners so their screams don't disturb the rest and about snape…how do you think we were able bring in that amount of alcohol?" smirked Marcus at the wide eyes of first years.
They were all enjoying very much when, a beautiful third year blond came towards Corvus and asked seductively "Would you fancy a dance handsome?" Corvus just got up in response held her hand and walked towards the dance floor where they settled in a rather intimate position and started moving with the rhythm of the music. After 5 minutes Corvus leaned forward for a hot session of snogging which earned a lot of wolf whistles around the common room. He just moved his hand from her back and raised his middle finger to the crowd in response.
The party ended around 1 in the night and everyone felt shitty next morning. Most of the house came late at the breakfast and had a severe case of exhaustion and hangover but having a potions master as head of house had its own perks. Snape had already prepared enough anti-hangover for 5 such parties. Everyone in the Slytherin knew that Snape was a really good mentor if you were a Slytherin and not losing points for his house, but if you lose points or are in Gryffindor, then he would even punish you for breathing.
Life at Hogwarts was back on its track, With the classes and homework being headache, quidditch was balm. Next match was 15 days later, where Hufflepuff defeated Ravenclaw by just 20 points. The match was very close and intense. Ravenclaw had better chasers but Hufflepuff had better keeper and Seeker. In the end Cedric Degree caught the snitch ensuring Hufflepuff's win.
The Gryffindor loss against Slytherin only fueled the anger of Ronald and few of his housemates. He became more hostile towards Corvus and always made rude comments when they were in hearing range. The whole Gryffindor as one considered Corvus a backstabber, the respect he had earned by saving Hermione was flushed down the sewage and they only saw him as the reason for their loss.
One day, the first year Slytherin ended up in yet another fight with the Gryffindor before the DADA class. Both the sides were insulting each other when Corvus intervened and said "Just shut it Weasley, or this wont end up good for you".
Before Ronald could react, Dudley moved ahead and shouted "Oh shut up you FREAK", this statement froze everyone around. Those who were halfblood or muggleborns knew those words as they had been hearing them all their life. Pureblood just narrowed their eyes and and gave a look that said 'say another word and you die'. Surprisingly enough Corvus laughed, a mocking and slightly devilish laugh.
"I knew it, I knew you remembered me dear cousin!" that earned quite a few wide eyes around the crowd. A muggleborn, cousin of the Heir of the Blacks! It wasn't possible. Weasley looked slightly ill, he stuttered "Dud, a-are you really his cousin?"
"Oh What a surprise!" exclaimed Corvus "You didn't tell them?" asked in a mock disbelief. "Then I guess you never mentioned your family too?" this earned a confused looks around the crowd. However, Dudley was sweating heavily and his cheeks became red, either from anger or from embarrassment.
Then Corvus' eyes hardened and his features became cold and he said in a low dangerous voice "Mind telling them that amazing story about how two freaks showed up at your house all those years ago, my dear duddikins?" Everyone who was able to connect dots had their eyes big as saucers. They backed away from Dudley and started glaring at him.
"Allow me to introduce the spawn of the biggest magic haters in the whole world and unfortunately my maternal Cousin Dudley Dursley" said Corvus in a high voice. Now nearly every Slytherin was glaring Dudley and Gryffindors were staring at him in disbelief. "It happened when I was six…"
Flashback…
It was a cool Sunday afternoon in Little Whinging, although sun shone brightly in the sky, the temperature was quite pleasant. Since it was Sunday, most people were in their home relaxing, some children were playing in the gardens. A shiny black Mercedes drove in the Private Drive followed by a black Range Rover and stopped in front of the house which said Number 4.
Both the cars had the Royal crest on their number plates, which denoted that they belonged to some noble family. Immediately six men wearing black suits with an ear piece each in one of their ears stepped out and began scouting the area. After minute or two One of them walked towards the Mercedes and opened the rear door. A tall man with aristocratic features and black hair stepped out of the car followed by a small boy not more than five or six years old.
The Dursleys watched in awe and surprise as the cars stopped in front of the house, some people in the suits stepped out and started looking around. By the way they were standing; they looked like they were some bodyguards or agents of sorts. Then they looked at the cars' number plate and gasped at the royal crest. Vernon immediately rushed to open his front gate with greed evident in his eyes.
Inside the car, Corvus was not having a good time; his father was taking him to meet some Muggles. His grandmother had told him how bad they were, and to be honest he didn't want to meet them, relatives or not. "But dad, I don't want to meet them. I want to go back and play quidditch." Sirius saw his son whining and sighed "Look Corvus, I have told you this a thousand times. We are going to meet your aunt, she is your mother's sister." explained Sirius with a little bit strict voice. Corvus then half shouted and half exclaimed "But they are Muggles!" Sirius frowned at this, he was not expecting this. He took a deep breath and said "Look Cory, Muggles are not bad, they are just different because they don't have magic. I am sure you will love them."
Sirius and Corvus moved towards the house, the little boy was a little hesitant but followed. They reached the door, where a fat man was smiling oddly. The man's face reminded him of a pig. Sirius stepped up and extended his hand and said "Hello, Is this Mr. Vernon Dursley's house?" The fat man immediately took Sirius' hand and shook it with both his hands and said "Yes, this is sir. I am Vernon Dursley. Please come in" Sirius nodded and followed the man before giving a nod to the men outside.
Inside the house, Corvus saw a red haired woman who looked very similar to his mother. He smiled at her to whom she replied with a smile of his own. 'Maybe they aren't that bad' thought Corvus. Vernon then said "This is my wife Petunia Dursley and my son Dudley Dursley." as he pointed towards the woman and a small chubby boy who was busy eating his cake.
Sirius gave a nod of acknowledgment and sat on the sofa. He then spoke in an elegant voice "Let me introduce myself, I am Sirius Orion Black from the Noble House of Black, Nephew of The Duke of Edinburgh, and this my son Corvus Sirius Black." Both the adults had their eyes wide as saucers. This guy sitting on their sofa belonged to one of the most royal families in Britain. Immediately both bowed their heads and Vernon said "My Lord, I am sorry for not recognizing you. What would you like to have?" Sirius just waved him off and said "No formalities required and tea would do."
Vernon gave a huge smile and turned to his wife who happily obliged and went to the kitchen. He then sat on the opposite couch and said "So, what can I do for you Sir?" Sirius smiled and said "We just came to meet you and your family. I bring you some somber news." Hearing this everybody stiffened, Petunia came out and stood at the door of the kitchen`. Sirius then continued "I am afraid, but your sister has passed away." Petunia was immediately shocked. And anger started filling in her. The rage was clear on her face. Sirius thought that she must have loved her a lot but what happened next shocked him to the core.
"YOU, You are one of those FREAKS, aren't you? How DARE you enter my house." She shouted as she pointed a finger at Sirius. Before he could say anything the fat child who was busy playing with Corvus started crying. He had never seen his mother acting this way, and he was very afraid of her.
Petunia saw that her dear son was crying and the small freak sitting near her Duddikins. This enraged her even more and she shouted at Corvus "Stay AWAY from my son you FREAK!" and threw the small jar which was in her hand at Corvus. The jar was about to hit Corvus in the face when he raised his hand to protect himself. The jar had hit on his hand and he started crying. Sirius was so shocked by the whole ordeal that he couldn't move. How could he? The woman hated Lily, Her on sister and had harmed his son, wait- WHAT?
Sirius immediately rushed at his sons side and picked him up. He saw Petunia and Vernon caressing their child. He then shouted "How DARE you hit my child. We came here because you are the last living relative of Lily. I tell you about Lily's death and you hit her child MY CHILD!" everything started shaking in the house. Some crockery fell from the shelf. Vernon saw this and shouted in response "Stop this freak before I Hit you" and started moving towards Sirius.
Sirius response was a laugh not you everyday laugh, but a cold, evil laugh filled with mockery. "You think you can hit me and survive?" exclaimed Sirius. He then opened the window slightly and said "Look out, do you see those men, each one is a high ranking officer in MI6. One bad move pig and you are dead!" Vernon paled at the threat and chose to remain quiet. However Petunia was not in the mood to shut up so she just moved towards them and told them to move out and never come back
Sirius was not in the mood for argument. His idea of introducing muggles to Corvus was a bad one. He just picked his son up and moved out of the house, As soon as he was out of the door, he head a loud THUMP! He turned t see a closed door.
'I will make sure they pay! Nobody hurts my child' with that he sat in his car and went away. Surely next day, Vernon was demoted from being a manager to a mere clerk. His salary was reduced to half.
Flashback End…
"Fate has a cruel game called payback. It's ironical how the spawn of biggest magic haters ended up being a 'freak' himself and top of all you are a weakest freak nothing better than a mere squib. Tell me did my lovely aunt kick her precious duddikins out because he too is a freak?"
Dudley felt anger rising in him, he looked around and saw everyone looking him in disgust and hatred. He felt his eyes watering up and looked up to see Corvus. He only saw red and launched himself at Corvus to punch him.
Corvus saw the fat boy looking around frantically for help but only got looks of disgust, 'yes he will pay!' thought Corvus as he saw the fat boy jumping at him with a fist closed. He saw a heavy fist coming towards him, 5 years of intense training in quidditch and dodging bludgers had made his reflexes insanely fast, he immediately ducked from the punch but couldn't dodge what happened next.
Dudley went in for a punch, when he was about to hit Corvus, he ducked and Dudley missed completely but couldn't control his body momentum. He turned in mid air, which made him lose balance and started falling on Corvus. His back of the head hit Corvus' nose making it bleed. Blood started flowing from his nose soona pool of blood formed below him. That was when, the DADA professor appeared and shouted "What the hell is going on? Mr. Dudley! 30 points will be taken from Gryffindor for physical violence and 2 weeks detention. Mr. Malfoy, please take Mr. black to the Infirmary." Draco immediately nodded and took him to the infirmary. Everyone was so shocked at the whole ordeal that nobody saw that the professor never stuttered.
Draco and Corvus rushed towards the infirmary, blood still running from his nose. His white handkerchief had become red. When they reached the infirmary, Corvus was immediately ushered to a bed. "This is the second time in a month and you ended up here. You are just like your father. How can you be so careless?" Pomfrey went on as she healed his nose.
After 5 minutes some spells and potions she said "Mr. Black, You can go back to your classes, your broken nose is fixed but I advise you, not to disturb it. Now try to stay out of trouble and I don't want to see you here for a year." Corvus nodded and went back to his class. He reached the DADA classroom where Dudley was still being scolded by Quirrel. He saw Corvus and asked "A-are y-you o-o-okay Mr. B-black?". Corvus took his chair and said "Yes, professor I had a broken nose but Madam Pomfrey healed it well. Quirrel gave a smile and said in a stuttering voice "Now since this lecture is wasted" he glared at Dudley and continue "Tomorrow we will continue on disarming spell." With that everybody moved out.
The news of assault on the heir of Black spread like a wildfire. Entire school had decided to shun Dudley except a few Gryffindors who were convinced that Corvus was next dark lord or plain just hated him or ere jealous of him. Snape had not taken it lightly that a Gryffindor had assaulted one of his snakes, let alone his prized student and apprentice. If he had got the chance he would have even given Dudley a detention for breathing. Slytherins just enjoyed the whole ordeal. Snape was very protective of his snakes.
With all the day to day excitement and busy schedule, Corvus felt that he was missing something, but couldn't remember what. He was taking a stroll around the castle when he saw the Weasely twin hiding behind a statue near filch's office looking in some parchment. He quietly moved near them from behind. When he was just 10 meters away from them, they turned with their wands in their hands. He looked surprised and asked "How the hell did you know that I was here?"
They both narrowed their eyes and said "Well we have-"
"-our ways"
He looked at their hand and asked "Was it because of the parchment?"
Both the twins had wide eyes. Corvus knew that they were caught. Finally he found the Marauder's map. His father had told him about it. The Marauders used it for pranking. Fred immediately mumbled "Mischief Managed" and the markings on the Parchment disappeared.
This confirmed Corvus' suspicion. He quietly took out his wand and thought 'ACCIO MARAUDER'S MAP' and the map flew from Fred's hand into his hand. He opened the parchment and saw nothing in it. He looked up and saw the twins smirking. He gave a smile and pointed his wand on it and said "I Solemnly swear that I am up to no good" and with that markings appeared on the parchment. He read it and said "I am going to take it guys"
"How did you know about the map?" asked one of the George with wide eyes.
Corvus gave a smirk and said "Lets just say being the son of Padfoot and Prongs has its perks!" he just gave a laugh at their shocked faces. Immediately both of them knelt in front of him and said in unison "We apologize for our insolence my Lord. We didn't recognize son of our lords" Corvus gave a huge laugh and said "Rise my minions. You are forgiven, for I, the next Marauder shall take his rightful place. I may call you back some day when I need some assistance in my duty as a Marauder."
The twins heard his little speech and joined in the laughter. 'Life was going to be better from now on' thought Corvus as he walked back to his common room.
To be continued…
Thats it...I hope you all like it...
