Epilogue: Reliving

.

If, in a few years time, I were to ask you what Bellatrix Lestrange saw when the Dementors gathered around her cell at Azkaban, you would undoubtedly reply it was the pain and torture of those she had tormented. At this point I would have to stop and correct you. She never felt any remorse for her doings, she never heard the Longbottoms scream or any other victim cry out. No she never relived any of that.

.

She could tell they were gathering around her cell.

She could feel it.

They were making her bones shake.

She could tell there were lots of them.

She could feel it.

They were making her feel enclosed.

She could tell they were coming closer.

She could feel it.

They were making her feel as though she was in his control again.

.

Many people believed that she was always mad, that she was always the one torturing others. But that is not true. For years she was the one kept in a cage. I suppose that is why she loved to play with her food, so to speak, she loved the feeling of having control over things.

.

Yes Ms Lestrange did become a murderess, a psychopath, but before that she was just a little girl.

.

She could tell they were right outside now.

She could feel it.

They were making her relive it all.

They were making her relive the first years of her marriage, before her Lord came along, before he saved her.

They were making her relive the time when she was nothing but a marionette.
