Chapter 5- Nagini
Ginny stood up quickly when she heard the knob on the kitchen door turn. She froze when the door opened revealing two dementors holding something. As the dementors glided closer, she gasped realizing they were holding Hermione's limp body. Ginny watched as they dropped her to the floor, and left the room. Ginny quickly ran over to her and knelt down next to her. She put Hermione's head into her lap and it felt like her stomach dropped when she touched Hermione's face. Hermione's skin was almost as cold as ice. Hermione opened her eyes slightly just enough to make out Ginny's face. "Ginny, don't leave me" Ginny watched as Hermione closed her eyes again.
Harry and Ron entered the little town of Hangleton. "Ron, I don't think she's here. Let's check the next town." As they left the town, Ron noticed a huge manor not too far away. When they got closer, Ron thought he saw someone watching them.
Bellatrix smiled sinisterly as she watched Potter and the Blood-traitor pass by the manor, "He is on his way My Lord."
They continued walking for a while till they came to the small village of Spinner's End. Harry thought about the dream he had. "Come on Ron let's go this way." He led Ron down the street towards Snape's home. Ron looked up and down the street all the houses looked as though nobody had lived in them. As they got closer to Snape's house they saw a house on the corner that looked as though someone had been in there not too long ago. Ron suddenly noticed a trail of muddy footprints going into the house. "Who would go around barefoot this time of year?" Harry shrugged as they entered the house. They looked around the room, till they found Hermione lying on the floor. They ran over to her, and kneeled down next to her. "Harry, she looks dead! She isn't breathing!" Harry reached his hand out to roll her over onto her back. Just as soon as his fingers touched Hermione, he disappeared along with her. Ron fell back on the floor startled "a port key!" He looked down at the floor and saw a note addressed to him. He began to read it.
Mr. Ronald Weasley, to find your sister you must travel thirty miles from
The entrance of this village, towards Little Hangleton. You will find a large house
Your sister is kept inside.
After Ron finished reading the note, he remembered seeing that house. He pocketed the note and quickly left to find Ginny.
Harry suddenly landed hard on his knees in a large strange room. He looked around, noticing the walls were a dark shade of green. Suddenly Harry heard a noise behind him. Still sitting on his knees, he turned to see Bellatrix standing in the doorway. "Why if it isn't itty bitty baby Potter. Come to save your friends?" Harry quickly stood up, and turned to face her. Suddenly he felt a searing pain rip though his scar. Harry dropped to the floor, and quickly put a hand on the floor to support him. The other hand he used to clutch at his scar. Voldemort walked into the room and over to where Harry was. He pointed his wand at Harry. "Crucio" Voldemort watched as Harry fell to the floor screaming. He lifted his wand and smiled sinisterly at Harry. "Your mud-blood friend is dying Harry. She was very loyal to me these past few months. She hurt my feelings when she ran away. I had to punish her." Harry glared up at him. Bellatrix walked over and grabbed Harry roughly by the arm, and stood him up. Bella smirked as she led Harry down to the kitchen followed by her master. They stopped in the doorway. Harry stood starring in horror at Hermione's almost lifeless figure lying on the floor. "NO!" He ran over to her and dropped to his knees next to her. He looked up at Ginny, who was sitting leaning against the wall next to Hermione. "Gin..." but before he could finish Bellatrix grabbed her by the arm and pulled her up. She pointed her wand at the girl. "Silencio". Harry looked around to see Bellatrix holding Ginny. Hermione opened her eyes only slightly, and saw a blurry figure next to her. "Ron" She closed her eyes, and fell unconscious. Harry turned back around at the sound, and noticed Hermione's head had turned sideways. All of a sudden the pain in his scar became so intense that he blacked out. Voldemort smiled sinisterly as Harry fell across Hermione. Bellatrix lifted the spell of Ginny and threw her to the floor.
By the time Ron reached the gate to the manor. The sun was already very low in the sky. He looked up at the building, thinking that it looked very intimidating. He pushed the gate open a little bit and slipped in. Ron ran swiftly but cautiously up to the door peering in to the window next to it. He saw Nagini curled up in front of a door.
Voldemort looked down at Harry with sick satisfaction then looked up at Bellatrix. "Tie Potter up securely and take him to the dungeon. I will take care of him later." Bellatrix pointed her wand at Harry and a rope streamed out of her wand and coiled its self tightly around his chest. Voldemort watched as Bellatrix and Lucius dragged Harry out of the room leaving the door open. He looked down to see the blood-traitor glaring up at him. "CRUCIO!" He watched as she screamed and jerked around on the floor. "I should finish your mud-blood friend off now but why deny Potter the chance to see his friends die." He sneered looking at Hermione. He pointed his wand at Hermione's face. There was a crack and blood began to seep from her nose, and her face began to swell. He looked at Ginny and began to step towards her. "Tell me the where abouts of the Order of the Phoenix." Ginny glared defiantly, "NEVER!" Voldemort sneered "Crucio!" He watched as she jerked about. "Nagini will have a taste of your friend next time, if you don't give me the answer I want." He turned and left leaving Ginny terrified.
Ron watched as Voldemort came out of the room with the snake guarding it and into another room across the entrance hall. He looked around for something to kill the snake. Looking over by a rose bush he saw a hilt of a sword. He quickly went over to it. It was the Gryffindor sword. He slowly opened the door and crept towards the kitchen doorway. Ginny looked up to see Ron inches away from the snake. She got up and went over to the door way. The snake looked at her, and made to strike at her. Ron taking his chance quickly stabbed the sword into the snake. As soon as Ron knew the snake was dead. He took the sword out. Quickly Ron and Ginny went over to where Hermione was. "Ginny we have to get you and Hermione out now. We can talk more when we are far enough away from this place." Ginny nodded, and took the sword from Ron so he could pick Hermione up. Ron bent down and picked Hermione up wedding style. They rushed over to the kitchen door and checked to see if the coast was clear. Seeing that it was, they darted to the front door and slipped out.
Harry blearily opened his eyes and looked around. Slowly regaining his strength he pushed himself into a sitting position with some difficulty. Leaning up against the bars of the cell door he was able to see rain falling in sheets out the tiny dungeon window. "Baby Potter wants to play?" He quickly turned his head towards the dungeon door to see Bellatrix only feet from him with her wand pointed at him. "CRUCIO!" She watched as he jerked about. She flicked her wand and the ropes fell down around his waist. She sneered at him as she walked towards him with her wand pointed at his chest. "Imperio, get up and stand away from the door." Bellatrix smiled sinisterly as Harry stood up and moved away. She walked over to the cell door and touched her wand to the lock. There was a click and then swung open. Bellatrix pointed her wand at Harry's hands and his wrists were chained together with 6 inches of chain between the shackles. She began to circle him. After circling him once, stopped with her wand tip against the lower part of his back. "Tell me where Dumbledore is." she hissed in his ear. "I don't know." She quickly reached up and scraped the side of his face with her nails, leaving deep cuts. "CRUCIO! You Lie!" She watched as he fell to the floor screaming, and jerking about. "NO!" Bella looked towards the dungeon door with a nervous look. "Bellatrix get up here!" Bella threw Harry in to the cell and locked the cell door. She turned quickly and left the dungeon.
Voldemort looked up from the snake to see Bellatrix coming toward him looking scared. He turned toward her "Crucio!" Bella fell to the floor and jerked in pain. He lifted his wand. "Nagini is dead, the mud-blood and blood-traitor are gone." Bella stood up and looked over at the snake. "I will make the boy pay, My Lord." Voldemort followed her gaze then looked back at her. "No Bellatrix, I will take care of the boy."
