Chapter 22
When I fell
(Same day)
The girl collapsed onto the ground; she was completely still, dead like. Severus's leg twitched involuntarily as if to take a step towards the girl, but then he remembered himself.
The Dark Lord smiled down at the motionless girl on the floor.
Only the sounds of breathing could be heard around the room.
Voldemort walked over to the girl and prodded her with his foot. "Unconscious," said The Dark Lord, "but very much alive."
The room suddenly erupted in murmurs. "Silence," shouted Lord Voldemort. The Deatheaters fell silent immediately. "On the night," began The Dark Lord, "that my Deatheaters were ordered to kill Alexandra Snape, did anyone bother to check that you had done it properly."
"My Lord," came forth a wild looking woman with dark hair. She threw herself at Voldemort's feet. "My Lord," she said again. "Forgive us! It was not our fault; I did not know!"
"Silence Bella," hissed Lord Voldemort, as he kicked the women aside. Bellatrix crawled away shamefully.
"Severus," said The Dark Lord, focusing on Snape. "I expected better from you."
"I beg your pardon, My Lord," Snape said, bowing his head slightly.
"No matter," said Lord Voldemort as he considered the girl on the floor again. "Her blood is too valuable to spill; her power is too useful for me to waste."
"What are you saying, My Lord?" asked Snape.
"Your cousin is strong willed, Severus," said The Dark Lord, "but she can be broken."
Severus's face began blank and paler as he when deeper within himself.
Voldemort let out a piecing high pitch laugh. It looked like he was getting exactly what he wanted after all.
