Chapter 13:

Oliver awoke several hours later in sheer agony. His entire body ached from the curse. That was the second time he was hit with that thing, and it wasn't getting any easier. It fact, this was more painful. Possibly the person who hit him the first time wasn't as strong as this guy.

He tried to rub his face, but his arms were heavy, and just fell to the ground before they reached his face. He looked down and noticed two large shackles attached to both wrists. Great, he thought. Just great. There was a loud noise, he jerked his head up to see a large metal door pushed open. In came the same man who had attacked him at the train station.

"Well good morning," he said in a nervous and shaky tone. "You've been asleep for two days. We were starting to worry about you." Oliver noticed that he still carried the small bundle.

"Bring me closer," the bundle said. The rat like man sneered, then brought the small bundle closer to Oliver's face. What he saw made his entire face turn white and sent shivers down his spine.

It was a man.

A small, wrinkled baby-sized version of a man, with a hideous serpent like face. It was smiling at him. "Welcome Mr. Wood," Oliver recognized that horrible hiss. Not just from when he was attacked, but there was something that he could have sworn he had heard before. "I must say this is an honor. I'm really a big fan of yours." Something, something he couldn't fully understand. He knew that voice. "Oh, excuse me, where are my manners, I am Lord Voldemort." Oliver tried to back away but the shackles prevented much movement. "You don't remember me, do you? Well I can't blame you, you were only a small child, I believe you were only five when Harry Potter outwitted me. I was a friend of your father's." Finally it dawned on him. He heard that voice when he was a small child. It filled him with dread when he heard it back then and its doing the same thing now. "There, now you remember. We used to have good times back then, didn't we?" Oliver tried to grab a hold of this creature but to no avail. Voldemort just laughed at his struggles. "What would you do if you could reach me? Throw a Quaffle at me? Suck my cock?" Oliver stopped, fury burning in his eyes. "Well I told you I was a fan, its only natural that I read the papers. Its been said that you, Mr. Wood, are a big fat flamer!" Oliver tried yet again to grab the bundle, this time nearly pulling the shackles out of the bolts. Rat Man, as Oliver called him pulled Voldemort away.

"Crucio!" Rat Man shouted, Oliver dived out of the way. The spell ricochet off the metal of the shackles and bounced right into the bundle. The small creature shrieked and shook at the pain coursed through him. Oliver found a bit of piece hearing those earth shattering cries.

Rat Man held his wand in place for a good long while before he realized who he was hitting. Immediately he dropped the wand, but still the tiny form that was Voldemort shook.

"Oh, Master, forgive me!" He begged. The tiny creature slapped him across the face, though, it didn't seem to hurt much.

"Fool, you could have killed me!"

"And remind me how that's a bad thing," Oliver blurted out, instantly regretting it. He was desperate to get himself killed. Voldemort jerked his head back towards the younger man. A menacing grin etched its way onto his small disfigured face.

"Wormtail," he said, obviously talking about Rat Man. "Bring in the package." Wormtail moaned a little, as if the idea caused him pain. The two left the room and a few moments later came back with a person. A woman, with a huge burlap potato sack over her head. Oliver felt his heart quicken. He knew those robes. Wormtail pulled off the sack to reveal...
