Pirate Blood

Chapter 34

Anniversary

A/N: This chapter is dedicated to Allie because she gave me the idea. Thanks so much!

The three year anniversary was coming up. Lord Voldemort was on edge. Not only was he planning how to kill Harry Potter, but he was also trying to kill Kaylee Sparrow. If only he could find her.

They first attacked three years ago at the Sparrow Mansion. Lucius was supposed to kill her on many occasions before. However, he always found an excuse for why he couldn't. Finally, the Dark Lord ordered that they attack Sparrow Mansion to find her.

They were all in hidden positions. They could hit her from any direction. Kaylee, however, hadn't been home in two days. Her parents were fighting with her about Draco. None of the Death Eaters listened to the conversation, except Lucius.

"You're pregnant and married! You're barely fifteen years old! I'm getting this marriage annulled, and you're getting rid of this child!" Kaylee's mother, Katherine, had shouted.

"No, we're staying together and we're raising this baby! Why are you acting like this? Are you upset that he didn't run out on me like you said he would? Is that what this is about? You're upset that you were wrong?" Kaylee said.

"No, this is about you. You are ruining your life! He doesn't love you!" Katherine spat.

"He knew damn well that he didn't have to marry me! He married me because he loves me!" Kaylee yelled.

"You have to raise a child. No one can do it for you!"

"Why not? God knows you didn't raise me."

"How dare you speak to me that way! I am your mother!"

"When have you ever acted like it? You never did anything when I didn't come home at night. You only recognized this morning that Jesse is an alcoholic! Maybe you should have followed your own advice. No one can raise your children for you." Kaylee said defensively.

Kaylee's father, Colin came down the steps with Jesse. Jesse was carrying a backpack, a suitcase and a guitar case. "Kaylee, don't blame the fact that you're a slut on me." Jesse said viciously.

"I wasn't, Jesse. Have fun in rehab." Kaylee replied coldly.

Jesse and Katherine left for rehab. Katherine had said that she would come back in an hour. Kaylee and Colin were about to have a conversation about her marriage when a blue light hit the window directly behind Kaylee. They had fought back some, but they took Isabel and ran off.

Lucius thought back on the day. He had blocked many spells for Kaylee and Colin. He was sure to hide that from the other Death Eaters. He was always sure to hide that every time they found them and attacked. Unfortunately, he was protecting Kaylee and Rachel in Australia. He hadn't been watching out for Isabel when one of the Death Eaters killed her just for the hell of it. The Death Eaters were gradually becoming more suspicious of him.

When they saw Colin back at Sparrow's, they decided to try and get information from him. He wouldn't give any and he knew occlumency. So Voldemort ordered that Lucius kill him in front of all the Death Eaters. Lucius killed Colin with the Sectumsempra spell. He was forced to watch Colin's slow death. Lucius wanted to kill himself after that. Colin had been a good friend of his. Colin's last words had been, "Protect her." The other Death Eaters had assumed that Colin meant he would protect Kaylee until he died. Lucius knew that Colin had really meant for Lucius to protect Kaylee.

Lucius was in charge of tracking down Kaylee. He had led them to Brazil. Recently, the Dark Lord ordered that they start looking in Europe again. Lucius knew they would find her eventually. He gave it three months. He told Kaylee to be aware in spring. He could only hope that she listened to his advice. However, if Lucius knew Kaylee, which he did, he knew that she wouldn't leave now. She's gotten to attached. She'll start to fight. He just hoped that Kaylee would win.

There always was the chance that she would run. What would happen then? Would she run until the Dark Lord catches her, or until he dies? What if he never dies? Potter was only a seventeen year old. He might not be able to kill him. Lucius sighed as he felt his Dark Mark burn. He apparated straight to the location of the meeting, a cave Scotland.

"Yes, my Lord?" Lucius said as he bowed.

"Get up. Why haven't we found Sparrow yet?" he asked, fury in his voice.

"We have another lead. It's in Spain."

"Well Lucius, why haven't we found her? I don't care about your personal attachment to the girl."

"I don't have–"

"Don't you dare lie to me Malfoy. I am completely aware of your grandchild that the Sparrow gave birth to. I should make you kill that too. But because of our schedule, I won't. Though, after we set out on another pointless expedition, you can expect that we'll kill the child."

"Yes, my Lord."

"You are dismissed." Lucius apparated back to the office the Death Eaters gave him to collect information on Kaylee's whereabouts. He pondered on what to do. He could never kill Rachel...Could he?
