Note: Hello my dear followers AND readers! Here´s the next chapter. If you want to know I´ll try to update every Friday. ENJOY! Oh and this chapter will be a little longer than 1900 words. The family history is just some story I invented about them. ENJOY AGAIN!
Chapter 6: Family
"So…are you going to tell me something about your family history?"
"What?"
"You told me in my first night here that you would give me a tour around the house and tell me something about your family." Did I?
"Oh okay." They walked to their bedroom. Then…
It all started in the year 508 before Christ. A young wizard named Julius Slytherin walked through the roads of R.M.C.R. He was tall, dark haired, blue eyed and pale as ice. Someone weird for the people of Respublicas Magicis Civitátibus Romae. Why? Most of the wizards were short, some tall, fat, strong men with bushy brown hair. Handsome they were but he was different from the others.
For example his "Friend" Miltiades Orion was happy with his wife and seven children. He was a teacher in Schola magicas potionem. He taught potions and Julius the Dark Arts but he wanted more than that. Yes, it was the best magic school in Italia. He sure loved to teach the wizards spells and more but he adored the spells potions of the "unknown" dark arts. He spent years researching and looking for all kinds of Dark Arts stuff when a great idea occurred him. He isn´t the greatest "unknown" inventor and wizard of all time but HE created THE KILLING CURSE. The spell was perfect.
´The spell kills the soul and the body of the living person instantly if you say the word with hate and anger. It will kill the victim immediately after saying it with the right technique.´
His name was erased in the Books of Spells from the genius and writer Fenistocles because of those fools of the worldwide organization against the dark arts wanted it so. He married and had children with the love of his life Roxanne. He taught his children to be the best of the best like a proud Slytherin. Only two of his eight children survived till the age of nineteen years. Marcus and Alexander were very smart teens. They knew everything about anything. Till one day… one of the brothers had to die.
"Marcus…why in the name of the gods are we going to do this?" Alexander hated to fight and was the weaker one. He always tried to find another way of solving problems.
"I am the better one! They all are wrong! You aren´t the better one. I Marcus Slytherin!" Marcus was the stronger and competitive type of guy. It´s in our DNA.
"Avada Kedavra!"
Marcus died that very day. Alexander continued living alone which was very difficult until, like always a woman called Dafny stole the heart of Alexander but she didn´t love him back. He couldn't believe it. No, this wasn´t happening to him. He wanted to find a way to get her and marry her. He bought her dresses, pearls, golden diadems, rings and all kinds of jewels but she wouldn't accept. He was sick and tired of it and decided to go to extremes. He was a potions master. After 9 months he finally created the most powerful love potion Amortentia.
´The love potion named Amortentia is a drink that makes other people fall madly in love with you with the help of your hair. The person will love you for a while till the effect is gone. Depends on the amount but you can´t put more than 5 ml of Amortentia…"
Of course he had to test it in someone. Why not Dafny? He invited her for dinner at his palace…
"Please have a drink." He handed her wine with 0.69 ml of Amortentia. He put in it a bit of his hair so she would fall madly in love with him.
"Thank you Alexander." She slowly drank the potion and she saw that he was looking at her holding his breath.
"Oh boy! Love are you ok?" she ran to him and hugged him tightly.
"IT WORKED!" after like a month the effect of the potion was leaving so he wrote everything what happened while she was under the love potion. Her behavior, her happiness, her love to him everything.
He kept giving her different amount till his baby, Helen was born. He decided to risk and gave Dafny 5.5 ml of Amortentia. She was obsessed with him, would cry for anything, would laugh at anything, her emotions were acting CRAZY. Until…
´because I´ll kill the person after two or three weeks.´
Poor Alexander his potion was a big triumph bit she was gone…for ever and ever and ever and ever and ever…and ever. He hated life but he loved his daughter Helen. Unfortunately he died when she, Helen was only ten years old.
Helen the First Slytherin Princess was as all of them smart, beautiful, precise, charming. Like her parents. Once she was married she wanted true women to be a Slytherin Lady so SHE created the Slytherin Lady ring. She put on a powerful spell so only a true Slytherin like woman would have such a great position.
Then the same ´happy ending story 'repeated itself again and again until in the 11. Century the magicae moritur epidemy killed 20 million of wizards, 45 million magical creatures and caused damage valued for 879 million pounds. It killed more than half of the magic population. There were thousands of bodies lying dead on the ground with a lifeless face. The worst thing a living creature could see. Not long after that in the muggle world there was the bubonic plague. A horrible disease indeed. Edward III Slytherin found out that the dementors caused all the chaos. And the death of his beloved wife Katherine.
´I swear revenge.´
I don´t have to tell you that he was mentally a genius. He wanted to find a way of the dementors keeping their hands off them. When he read in a book: "Dementors are creatures incapable of happiness." He figured out that if he used something like a…happy memory he could destroy them. He the creator of:
"Expectum Patronus!"
But in the 18. Century was the worst for the Slytherins. Xavier IV hadn´t got enough money to feed the family. His wife was killed with his second son and his first one David left him. But the worst was that David talked with muggles! He befriended them and helped them! Xavier couldn't see himself being a piece of shit in the streets of Wien and HIS son interacting with MUGGLES? He got mad and they had to kill him because he was so sick no one could help him.
"Proud Slytherin!" were his last words. A total shame to the Slytherin family history. We lost a lot of valuable money because of that pig.
In the year 1856 The Magique New York Times Headlines: Slytherin Playboy George winner the best smile of the year." Yes he was one of the hot guys those days. He knew what, how and when to do his moves. He and his child Toby and their pet Ting were successful business men and animal. That was the Golden era of the Slytherins. Over 398 998 million dollars they collected year by year. Enough to feed the planet.
Then in 1926 Tom Marvolo Riddle Junior was born.
"Emm well those were the most important dates in my…our family."
Hermione was there staring at him open mouthed. His…family origins are from the dates of Rome! But what about the books I´ve read about the potions. There were written different names. Not a Slytherin. If this was true…the Slytherin house was the smartest.
"So every single book you have read and says that it´s not how I said to you. They are false. Hermione not anyone knows this piece of information. Well no one except me and you."
"Wow…that's…absolutely incredible! I… I am so proud of marrying you Darling! You my dear are the best!" TELL ME MORE! SO EXITING!
"Geez Hermione thanks. Anyway it´s already noon. "
"Everything I´ve ever known…it´s just a big lie!"
"Welcome to my world."
As small house elf pooped out of nowhere in front of them.
"My Lord, Mrs. Riddle Lunch is ready for you."
"Excellent. Care to follow me Love?"
"You bet!"
Malfoy Manor dining room
"Draco! How many times do I have to tell you to respect the Dark Lord and Mrs. Riddle! She was being nice to you but you just HAVE to disobey her AND the Dark Lord AND act like an asshole! NOOO YOU JUST WON´T LISTEN TO ME!"
"But Dad…"
"Lucius is right Draco. She really was niece but you weren´t. She was fair. Next time you do that again you´ll have big problems young man!"
"Sure…"
Gaunt Manor dining room TIME PARANOIA
"Your family history is amazing. Full of love, tragedy and drama…like a book I´ve read not long ago."
"Our family."
"Yes. You´re right. Hmmm this meat is the best I have ever tasted!" Good job house elves. Mmmm really good meat quality.
"Yeah pretty good."
"After we finish eating you could show me you- I mean our house? If I´m going to spend the rest of my life living here I would like to do something."
"Of course."
30 minutes later…
"Hahaha Tom! I didn´t know you were so funny!"
"Not even me!" They really had a good time together. Tom didn´t have so much fun since he killed his father Tom Riddle Sr.
"So let´s go I´ll show you around."
"Do you have a library?"
"A big garden and yes an enormous library."
"Can´t wait!"
Hogwarts School of wizardry and witchcraft meeting
"What is it Albus?" Professor Lupin, teacher of the Defense against the Dark Arts asked first. All the member of the Phoenix were called urgently for a very, VERY important meeting.
"First of all let me finish."
"Okay."
"Hermione is married to Tom Riddle, Voldemort."
"WHAT!" they all yelled at the same time, except Harry, Ron and Luna.
"Aren´t you happy for them?"
Yes Luna was weird but HAPPY?!
"You Crazy?" Tonks spat at her.
"They have found true love! You should be happy for them!"
"ENOUGH!" Albus Dumbledore for the second time in his life yelled.
"I Told you to let me finish…Good now yes Miss Hermione Granger or should I say Mrs. Riddle is married to Tom Riddle, Voldemort and the Dark Lord. She is for the first time in five hundred years The Slytherin Lady. Yes, she was chosen by the ring. Voldemort is now very strong thanks to Mrs. Riddle because he might LOVE her. And you all know that love is the most powerful thing on earth. In others words we have a big problem right now. You may speak now."
"What are we going to do!?"
"SHE´s married?"
"Tom Riddle is Voldemort! And HER!?"
"The Hell is going on!'"
"SLYTHERIN LADY? SHE IS A GRYFFINDOR?"
"HOW DID HE EVEN GOT TO HER?"
"Her parents!"
Gaunt Manor
"C´mon Tom! I want to open my eyes already! I mean the garden was beautiful and the magnolias too! You know it´s a muggle plant! You are full of surprises."
"Just wait." She heard a heavy door open. This room has to be bigger than the others.
Tom lead her in, closed the door and then he said those three magical words:
"Open your eyes."
She couldn't describe how or what she has just seen. Books, books, books, books and BOOKS!
"Tom…just…wow…I think this is from now on my favorite place." She heard him laugh. Not long ago she would have said she hated that sound but this…she loved to hear that.
"Hermione?"
"Yes?"
"I would like to recommend you this book over here…"
