Again sorry for the delay, more personal problems. Now we can finally get into the good stuff, very exited to right more. Please reveiw and enjoy. :)

Lucius bit his lip, glaring at the stone wall in front of him.

"You don't think it's strange?" Bellatrix purred, laying on the couch across from him. She was twirling her long nailed fingers through her hair, pulling out strands in the process. "Little old Severus being held in some room that we don't even know about?" She chuckled as Lucius creased his eyebrows. "Your upset aren't you? Now that your little boy toy is gone."

"Bellatrix." Lucius growled, turning to the blacked haired Slytherin. "You were there when I told him that no matter what, even if he was sick or dying that he had to come back to me. I admit that I have been harder on him, even though I should lay low with all these pesky Gryffindors asking questions." The blonde sighed heavily, rubbing his forehead with his hands.

"Well, what should we do?" Bellatrix asked, jumping from the couch. "I mean, how much longer can we wait? The dark lord is already asking questions. I don't know why Severus is so important to him but I'm not going to question him." She began to pace in front of Lucius, her long black boots made the room echo as she stepped.

Suddenly Lucius sat up, a smirk slowly tugging on his lips. "The dark lord, that's the answer." He whispered. Bellatrix tilted her head, frowning.

"I don't understand." She said, narrowing her dark eyes. Lucius merely laughed, laying back in his chair.

"Bellatrix, remember when I told you that I will allow you to torture someone?" He asked, watching with amusement as Bellatrix's eyes brightened. "Well, as you recall the dark lords words, In order to prove loyalty, you must first brake then rebuild knowing your place. I've been trying to break Severus for a long time now but he still gets back up. So what might you suggest I do?"

Bellatrix frowned and bit her nails. "In order to brake someone they have to lose everything, right?" She asked. Lucius nodded.

"Very good. Now we've discussed in the past about our little…watcher as you might call him."

"Lupin right?"

"Yes, Lupin." Lucius's eyes darkened. "He still watches me cautiously. And there's still Potter as well. But in order to truly brake someone you need to take away their most precious thing last. Lupin is Severus's closest friend. We take him, than we take Potter."

Bellatrix grinned, she stopped pacing and bounced excitedly. "So we can finally put our plan in motion?" She shouted. Lucius nodded slowly.

"Do it now." Bellatrix was out of the room in a minute, two shadows following her closely. Lucius smiled and closed his eyes.

"You will belong to me Severus, even if that means I have to brake you and rebuild you myself." He licked his lips, grinning even more. "Let the reconstruction begin."

"Honestly how much more work can I do?" Remus growled, storming down the hallway. "Test here and there, every bloody class. Oh Merlin, just please give me enough time to study tonight. And help Sirius and James as well." The young werewolf always got so stressed before his tests. He passed them perfectly, his friends on the other hand were another story. He wasn't looking forward to staying up all night with them, forcing them to pay attention to the books instead of other things.

"The things I do for them." He smiled, shaking his head. Remus finished his lessons early in class and the Professor allowed him to go to the library. Being the number 1 student has its perks after all. The hallway was empty, everyone else was still in class. He liked walking alone down the halls. It was nice, listening to his feet echo off the walls and admire the scenery that was around Hogwarts. Outside schools were always pleasant, serene and peaceful as he walked alone.

Things were different now. James no longer slept in the Gryffindor dorms. It had been almost a week now since he and Severus moved into the Room of Requirement. No one else was allowed in there besides them, Sirius, and himself. It was as if the room was alive, only allowing those who James and Severus trusted. The room was nice and the young werewolf was glad that his friends were safe.

Severus hadn't gotten hurt since he moved into the room. This only proved his suspicions of Lucius. That and James told him that Severus admitted it. But, in order to protect him he still had to act as if nothing was wrong.

Oh if I could just sink my claws into the snotty ass rich boy.

Remus chuckled, imagining himself doing such a thing. Things seemed to be getting better and that took allot of stress off of him. Now, he could focus on classes and prepare for his monthly trip to the shrieking shack.

Only two more weeks.

He clutched his book tightly and shook his head.

Relax Remus, just relax.

The young werewolf let out a slow breath and smiled, his thoughts drifting back to ripping Lucius to shreds. Maybe he should put his pieces in a dog bowl? How comical. He continued to smile as he got closer to the library.

"Lupin." A voice sneered behind him. Remus tensed and turned around slowly, narrowing his eyes at the one who spoke to him,

Of all the crazy people in Hogwarts.

"Bellatrix, what do you want?" He tried to keep his voice even but there was something about the way she stared at him that sent chills down his spine. Bellatrix snickered, tilting her head to the side.

"Oh little Remus, being so smart aren't we?" She purred, yellow teeth flashing as her smirk grew. Remus frowned, clutching his books tighter against his chest.

"What are you talking about?" He growled. "I don't have time for you, so if you excuse me I need to go to the library." He turned back around, surprised that there were others blocking his way.

They were behind me the whole time?

He couldn't recognize their faces under there hoods, but they looked menacing nonetheless. Remus gulped, feeling his body beginning to tremble.

"W-what is this?" He asked, voice shaking. He heard Bellatrix laugh behind him and felt her body stepping closer.

"Lets say, this is punishment." She breathed the words into Remus's ear, making his eyes widen. He was just about to make a run for it when one of the shadows sent their fist into his gut. Remus coughed and fell limply against him. Black dots swam in in his eyes as he struggled to get back up.

"Oh we wouldn't want that now would we?" Bellatrix giggled. The hooded figure holding Remus sent his arm crashing down against the back of his neck. The young werewolf's eyes rolled in the back of his head as he fell unconscious. Bellatrix nodded to the hooded figures.

"Let's go." All four of them vanished, leaving no trace.

"Honestly how much more work can I do?" Severus growled, storming out of his class. Just like Remus, Severus was allowed to leave class early due to his intellect. The small Slytherin hoped that Remus had already made it into the library. He didn't feel like searching for books for his upcoming tests. Plus he wanted to help James study tonight instead of Remus.

"Maybe you should try strip studying, Remus and I do it sometimes. You can really drive James crazy with it." Sirius's words echoed in his mind, making him chuckle. Sure he was perv at times but he was also smart. He imagined James being all flustered when he got an answer right.

The more answers he got right, the more buttons I will undo. Oh it was good to be a Slytherin.

Severus couldn't be happier. He was sleeping in James's arms every night, and waking up in them every morning. He no longer had to dread when classes were over. The Room of Requirement was such an amazing thing. He only wished he could thank Hogwarts.

Lucius couldn't do anything to him while he was in class. He was always amused when he saw him getting so frustrated that he couldn't do anything in public.

Serves the bastard right!

Severus turned down the hallway and froze. He was face to face with the very person he was just thinking about.

"Severus." Lucius purred. "How are you?" He smiled and stepped closer to the small Slytherin. Severus took a step back, his body trembling.

"W-what do you want Lucius." He whispered. Lucius chuckled and ran a hand across Severus's cheek, causing him to freeze.

"I want to show you something." He said looking amused. "So you can either come with me or we can do this the hard way, if you know what I mean." Severus could feel Lucius's wand pressing against his chest. He gulped and nodded slowly.

"O-ok, what is it you want to show me?" He whispered. Lucius smirked and grabbed Severus's arm.

"A wake up call." He and Lucius vanished. Severus opened his eyes slowly when they reappeared at there destination. Wherever they were, it was dark and small. He stepped away from Lucius and looked around. Chains were hung from the walls and there was dried blood splattered across the floor. Severus gulped, knowing he was in the dungeon. More specifically, the torture room. He stared at the weapons on the walls with round eyes.

"W-why are we here?" He asked, voice shaking. Lucius chuckled and grabbed Severus's shoulder tightly.

"Well I'm here to punish you of course." He hissed. Severus trembled under him, feeling tears whelming in his eyes.

I should of ran, the second I saw him I should of ran!

But he knew he couldn't have run, he could never run away from him. Lucius stepped away from Severus and walked towards the back of the room. It was dark and Lucius vanished in the shadows.

"Severus, I have tried and tried to make you see reason. But I must say, you are really hard to brake." He called from the darkness. "So I have spoken to…higher ups and they believe that a new punishment is in order."

Severus could hear moaning from the darkness and he tensed.

"So without further ado, here is your wake up call." Lucius clapped his hands and the torches on the wall sprung to life with fire and light. Severus squinted his eyes at the sudden brightness. When his eyes adjusted, he wish they hadn't.

No…...no...…NO!

Strung up in front of him in chains was the limp body of Remus. His arms were hoisted above his head and cuffs were clapped on tightly around his wrists. Blood was seeping down the cuffs, as if they were tearing into his skin. Remus's shirt was torn to shreds and blood was oozing out of his chest. Taking a closer look Severus noticed that next to him, Bellatrix was standing with a whip in her hands. Blood was stained on her face and clothes but Severus knew that it wasn't his blood.

"REMUS!" The young werewolf lifted his head slowly. Severus gasped in horror at the condition he was in. He looked like a ghost, his face flushed of all color. If he didn't do something soon Remus would die of blood loss at any minute.

"R…run." Remus chocked. "Get out of here…while you still have the chance…leave me…go no-" He was cut off as Bellatrix raked her nails across his face.

"How dare you!" She screamed. "I told you to keep your mouth shut!" Blood oozed down Remus's cheek where Bellatrix had slashed. She smirked and licked the blood off her fingers slowly. "Now you have scars to match the other cheek." She hissed.

Severus stared in horror, feeling bile rise up in the back of his throat. "What is this?" He screamed, turning to Lucius. The blonde Slytherin smirked, pulling a strand of hair behind his ear.

"Like I said, this is your wake up call. I have orders to brake you and rebuild you without any more problems. The dark lord himself told me so. He needs your loyalty and this is the best way to get it." Severus shook his head, tears stinging in his eyes.

"Please! Please just let him go! If you don't do something soon he could die!" He wailed desperately. Lucius frowned, narrowing his eyes.

"And so what if he does? Not my problem if this Gryffindor pest bleeds out. It would brake you faster if he did anyway."

"Please! I'll do anything just please let him go!" Tears spilled out of his eyes and glistened down his cheeks. Lucius crossed his arms over his chest, looking thoughtful.

"Anything?" He asked, curiosity ebbing into his tone. Severus nodded.

"Please…I'll do anything." Severus whispered.

"I only wish I could set him free, but I have orders not to. And I need to fulfill the rest of them as well." He pulled out his wand and pointed it at Severus. The chains from the wall behind him came to life, reaching out and grabbing Severus. He let out a startled cry as they dragged him against the wall, clapping around his wrists tightly.

"W-what are you doing?" Severus shouted, fear flashing across his face. Lucius chuckled and walked towards him, tracing his wand slowly down his neck.

"I also have to punish you physically. Been awhile since I've done so." His eyes darkened as he stared at Severus, it was if he was staring at a juicy piece of prey. Severus's eyes widened.

"Please." He begged. Lucius frowned and turned to look back at Bellatrix.

"Would you like to brake his mind first?" He asked, a smirk forming on his lips. Bellatrix grinned, nodding.

"Oh yes I think that is a brilliant idea." She dropped the whip and pulled out her wand, pointing it at Remus. Remus lifted his head slowly, looking at Severus with pleading eyes.

His lips mouthed out the words "Help me." Bellatrix raised her wand back, and with a laugh she screamed

"CRUSIO!" Severus watched as Remus threw his head back, letting out the most agonizing scream Severus had ever heard besides his own.

"STOP IT!" Severus cried. But no matter his please, Bellatrix continued firing curses. Remus twitched and screamed even louder at each one. His body convulsed in anguish, tears spilling down his blood stained cheeks. Finally, Remus hung his head as he fell limp.

"NO!" Severus shrieked.

He can't be dead, He can't!

Bellatrix frowned and lifted Remus's head up by his hair. His eyes were closed and he was still.

"Damnit, he's unconscious." She growled, releasing her hold. Remus's head dropped back down and hung limp just like the rest of his body. Severus squeezed his eyes shut and tried to hold back the vomit that was rising in his throat.

"Well, I'm sure that did some damage. Good work Bellatrix." Said Lucius, turning back to Severus. He grabbed his face in his hands, smirking. "Open your eyes." He growled. Severus's eyes opened slowly, they were dark and still rimmed with tears. Lucius leaned in, only inches away from his lips.

"Now my dear Severus." He whispered. "It's your turn to break." He released his hold and Severus looked up with fear filled eyes. Lucius grabbed his wand and aimed, a smirk still on his lips. Severus closed his eyes tightly and tensed.

James please save us.

"CRUSIO!"
