Wand
Bellatrix missed her wand so much in her time at Azkaban. She got it back when He rescued her. He always rescues her.
She could name all the times he rescued her.
Each time her wand would be taken away from her, one way or the other and he would get it back for her.
Every time he would have a special smile designed only for her. One that no one but her notices.
He would always be the reason why she got it back and because of that the wand was taken as the symbol of their relationship.
The light wondered how she could love him - how she could love that monster but to her he was everything.
Before him, no one has ever been kind to her.
oOoOo
The first time she was seventeen. She had a fight with her mother which resulted in her wand being taken away.
Her mother didn't care that she would have to meet the Dark Lord that evening. Her father and mother were asked to present her that evening since Andromeda turned out to be a complete disappointment.
Even though she would always fight with her mother, she loved her father very much and for him she stayed peaceful.
Her family arrived there on time. It was a Ball in the Dark Lord's honour hosted by the Malfoys. No one knew where the Lord was but they danced without him.
Bellatrix danced with the Lestrange brother that was her intended. After a while she went outside on the balcony to get some fresh air.
She was there for ten minutes before she heard someone approaching her. She turned around, her dress flying around her. What she saw was a vampire, Sanguini, the Lord that is working together with the Dark Lord.
He continued advancing towards her and said, still walking, "What is such a beautiful girl doing out side all alone?"
She never replied because he continued advancing towards her and just as he grabbed her arm she heard, "Sanguini do go inside and wait there for me."
It was commanding and she turned to her left from where it came. There, the Dark Lord was standing. He came forward and asked, "Who are you and why didn't you defend yourself? You are a witch, aren't you?"
Ashamed she lowered her eyes and said, "My name is Bellatrix Black and... "
She didn't get any farther when he grabbed her by her chin and said, "Look me in the eyes when you speak to me!"
She looked up meeting his blood red eyes with her brown eyes that were full of defiance and darkened by her Dark Magic. After their eyes met he hastily let go of her chin and went back inside.
That night when she came home her mother gave her her wand without a single word while her father looked at them, anger shining in his eyes.
oOoOo
The second time he saved her she was nineteen. Her wand has been taken away by Belladonna Malfoy, Abraxas Malfoy's sister. Madam Malfoy was chosen by the Dark Lord to help young Dark Mistress in reaching the highest form of Dark Magic. She was also there to help Bella as she becomes the Dark Lord's servant. Belladonna took Bellatrix's wand because she wanted to see Bellatrix defend herself without it. The Black in question managed to do it, but the Malfoy, never returned it back.
She has been without her wand for a whole day but she refused to show any weakness and her pride didn't allow her to go ask for her wand.
That night Bellatrix was summoned in front of the Dark Lord. When she entered into the room he was sitting on his Throne at the center. He was looking at her when she entered and she could feel his eyes on her. Slowly, she walked up to him and bowed deeply waiting for him to address her.
"Young Black how do you like it here?"
"My Lord it is exactly as I hoped it would be," she said simply, not wanting to present herself as overly enthusiastic. What she didn't notice was that the Dark Lord frowned when he heard that.
"In deed. I always do this to all of my recruits but since you are the first female I gave you some time to get used to being here. Show me your wand work."
Bella swallowed but told the truth hoping to gain sympathy, "My Lord I cannot. My wand has been taken by Madam Malfoy she..."
She was cut of by the Dark Lord's hiss, "How dare she?"
He left the room but she didn't dare to move. Some twenty minutes later Madam Malfoy entered the room. She returned the wand with an apology and a message from the Dark Lord.
Bella left for her home soon after that.
oOoOo
The third time it was her engagement party. He was there only because the Black family is more loyal to him than any other. Later he will be glad that he was there. Everybody celebrated it but Bellatrix wasn't happy. She heard the stories about the Lestrange brother and she didn't want it so she plastered a smile but she couldn't hide the sadness in her eyes.
Two hours into the party she was outside in the garden when she was hit with the disarming and binding spells.
She was frozen in place with her wand nowhere in sight but she could hear footsteps of a person coming.
When he came into sight she recognized him as her fiance. She tried to free herself but she could not. At the same time as he was approaching her he was casting cutting curses at her that sliced straight through her dress leaving her in only her underwear.
She was frozen in fear when a masculine voice shouted: Avada Kedavra ad she saw her assailant get swallowed by green light.
Soon the spells on her were finished and she was covered with a blanket. Not long after she felt the blanket she lost consciousness.
The engagement is no more.
oOoOo
The next time she hears of him in the form of a letter. There was no name from who it was so she went to read the letter in hopes of finding out who it was.
Miss Black,
We have seen each other many times and I know that almost all of them were surrounded by bad happenings. I write this letter in hopes of getting a positive response. You see, I have always thought that I would never marry but when I first saw you and looked into your expressive eyes I thought that you are the one but soon I found out that you were promised to another.
I wanted to make this letter as a question of would you accept me as a possibility?
I hope that this letter finds you in good health and that you never lose your wand because of me.
Yours,
Tom Marvolo Riddle aka Lord Voldemort.
When she finished reading the letter she paused but immediately took parchment, feather and inkwell.
My Lord,
I am honored that you think so highly of myself and I accept your proposal but you will have to go through my uncle, Lord Orion as he is the Head of my family. I hope that he accepts you as a good choice for myself. You mentioned my wand and I hope that I don't lose it but when I mentioned my wand, it has been taken away from me by my mother, again.
I thank you my Lord for this letter and I hope that mine finds you in good health.
Yours,
Bellatrix 'Bella' Lestrange
She sent her reply and went to sleep dreaming about the brown haired man with red eyes.
The Dark Lord followed the rules that her family went by and soon they were courting. The courting passed and engagement was here. Bellatrix loved him but all the happiness came to an end when the Dark Lord was banished by Harry Potter.
oOoOo
Bellatrix knew that her love was alive, she could feel him through her Mark - the Mark that has been made specially for her. She could, unlike the others, summon him to her.
Bella has been waiting for fourteen years in Azkaban when she heard commotion and felt her Mark Darken. Soon after that doors of her cell were blasted open and He entered. He was just as she remembered him but even though she was happy to see him, she was angry as well. He risked his life for nothing - he almost died. They would talk once she had her wand back and they were safe at home.
oOoOo
Bella had her wand back and she was ready for that conversation, she would just have to wait for him to come back from the meeting.
"Why did you risk your life?" Bella asked him angrily.
"Black we will talk tomorrow," he said coldly.
"Tom..." Bellatrix started but was cut of by his cold red eyes.
Her eyes clouded with sadness and all the anger she had melted away and she said, "Of course."
That night she cried herself to sleep because all she could see were his cold eyes - the same eyes that usually danced with flames whenever they looked upon her.
oOoOo
The next day she didn't see him and that scared her. She was still weak and with that she knew that the Tom she knew was gone because he would have never left her alone if she was vulnerable.
She looked at her green ring that was the symbol of their engagement and slowly took it away from her finger.
She entered his room with tears in her eyes and left it on his bedside table but that wasn't the only thing she left there, there was also her wand. She still held hope that the Tom she knew would return one day.
As weak as she was she took some Floo Powder and left for Malfoy Manor - for her little sister's home.
oOoOo
Days passed and he still hadn't come for her. When a month passed she lost all hope and tried to go on but she couldn't. She loved him - the Dark Mistress allowed herself to love one person that promised her the stars if she came with him - if she became his.
With every night that passed Bellatrix started becoming even more insane - she started falling for the Black Curse.
oOoOo
Months passed and Bellatrix lost any form of sanity. The only time she would stay sane was in the evening and then she would cry. Her sister saw everything but was too afraid to try and talk to the Dark Lord. He was ruthless and she feared for her son.
Soon Bellatrix got a new wand and a mission to go to the Ministry was given to her and Lucius Malfoy. She never saw Tom - only Voldemort hat used his body and taunted her with it.
oOoOo
"Liar!"' Bella shrieked at Potter, but he could hear the terror behind the anger now. "You have it! Give it now! Accio Prophecy!"
Potter laughed at her again and it incensed her but suddenly pain in her Mark started and she didn't know whether to be happy or let sadness overtake her .Potter waved his empty hand at her from behind the one-eared goblin and withdrew it quickly as she sent another jet of green light at him.
"Nothing there!" he shouted at her. "Nothing to summon! It smashed and nobody heard what it said, tell your boss that!"
'No!' she screamed. 'It isn't true, you're lying! Master,I tried, I tried -" Bella said when she saw anger in his eyes.
"Don't waste your breath!" yelled Potter."'He can't hear you from here!'"
"Can't I, Potter?" said a high, cold voice.
Tall, thin and black-hooded, his terrible snakelike facade on,, his red, cold eyes staring between Bella and Potter, Lord Voldemort appeared in the middle of the hall, his wand pointing at Potter.
"So, you smashed my prophecy?" said Voldemort softly but Bella knows that voice.."'No, Bella, he is not lying … I see the truth looking at me from within his worthless mind … months of preparation, months of effort … and my Death Eaters have let Harry Potter thwart me again …"
'Master, I am sorry, I didn't know, I was fighting the Betrayer of Black family!' Bellatrix said strongly, flinging herself down at Voldemort's feet as he paced closer to her. "Master, you should know –"
"Be quiet, Bella," He said dangerously. "I will deal with you in a moment. Do you think I have entered the Ministry of Magic to hear your snivelling apologies?"
Even though his speech was full of snide remarks hope woke up in Bellatrix's heart because he called her Bella and not Black as he referred to her these few months she has been free.
She bit her lip when he grabbed her by hair and sent her into fireplace back to his Manor.
oOoOo
Bella didn't dare to move from the room the fireplace was in for fear that her love wasn't back.
She waited for two hours when he apparated in. She didn't say anything, she just stayed in place hoping that it was Tom.
"You disobeyed me," he hissed.
"Tom, I..." Bella started with her sanity in tact after so long. He continued like he hadn't heard he, "You know the punishment… Crucio!"
Pain flared in Bella's veins and she couldn't hold the sobs back. She still sobbed when he stopped the curse.
"What are you waiting for? Get up!" He ordered angrily but she has had enough so she said.
"I beg of you Tom kill me."
An inhuman roar was heard from him as he charged towards her with his wand raised shouting, "Avada Kedavra!"
The spell flew towards Bella but at the last moment her Mark flared and green orb protected her.
Tired and exhausted by this she shakily stood up and said throwing her new wand away, "I am losing my second wand because of you."
She turned away from him and slowly went towards the fireplace not seeing that he glow in Tom's eyes dimmed and that his mouth was open.
oOoOo
When Bella got back to Malfoy Manor she was tired and she hurt all over. Her sister ran towards her to help but she barely noticed letting tears flow down her face again.
Narcissa has had enough and after a talk with her husband she went to the Dark Lord's Manor.
She flooed in and found him in his study. She knocked and waited for him to call her in, when he did, she entered.
"Lady Malfoy what do you need?"
"I came to inform you of few things, my Lord."
"And that would be?" He asked raising an eyebrow.
"Your engagement with my sister is broken," She said emotionlessly satisfied when she heard him gasp.
"Why?" He asked fearing her answer.
"She has not been wearing your ring for six months and she has suffered great physical and emotional pain."
"I don't remember that," he said.
"What do you mean?" Narcissa asked confused.
After that he explained to her how his brain has been destroyed due to the mistake Pettigrew made. When he told her all that Narcissa got up and said, "You have to fix it. I fear for her. She may even kill herself."
"I will try."
oOoOo
Bella woke up sad and her entire body ached. She went to the dining room for breakfast, her sister was there.
"Good morning." Bella only grunted. Seeing her sister like that all Slytheriness flew out and she decided to tell her about the talk she had with the Dark Lord last night.
When she heard that, Bellatrix cried for her love, whispering about how she forgives him everything.
She has been like that for more than twenty minutes when an owl flew in and pecked her on her arm. Bella took the letter and the package and started reading.
Dearest Bella,
I don't know if you will ever forgive me - if you will even want to look upon myself. I hope that you will but I know - I have been told how much I hurt you. I have reason that cannot make right all the things wrong.
My brain was messed up by Pettigrew. I cannot tell you how much I hate him. He has taken you away for six months and maybe forever. I hoped to be married to you by this time. I am so sorry my love, I have wronged you.
If you find it in your heart that you can forgive me, your room here waits. I will understand if you don't, you lost two wands because of me. I hoped that would never happen.
With this letter I give you your new wand in hopes that you will come for your old one.
I love you Bella, I hope you forgive me.
Forever yours,
Tom
Bella cried when she read the letter and immediately went to the Manor that she hoped would become her home again.
oOoOo
Tom courted Bella for another year before proposing to her. They married a month after he proposed. Together they defeated the Light giving them a chance at redemption.
Two years after they got married Bella fell pregnant. When the child was born they named him Phoenix Tom Riddle per Bellatrix's wish. He grew up to be strong and loved even though he was a child of a Dark Mistress and a Dark Lord.
The End
