Chapter 20 : Revenge of Sirius Black.
The day for the final battle was nearing, Harry was becoming more and more worried about his friends. So one morning he takes them once again into the training room.
"Today I am going to teach you how to use the Unforgivable Curses. I know they are illegal, but they will be needed in the battle." explained Harry calmly.
"Harry, we aren't nearly powerful enough to perform and Unforgivable Curse." gasped Hermione slowly.
"As you aren't taking part in this battle, you don't need know how to. It doesn't matter how powerful someone is, it's down to determination and reason. If someone has a reason to using one of the curses, they will be able to perform it." said Harry truthfully.
Hermione, Ginny, Luna, Ron and Ginny sat quietly, listening to Harry. Harry pulled two frogs out of his pocket. He placed them carefully on a table, where they sat nervously.
"We will only need to practice two, the Imperius Curse doesn't need anything to perform. First of all will be the Cruciatus Curse, the one for pain." explained Harry importantly.
Harry watched as his friends shifted uncomfortably. They eyed Harry's wand and then the frogs.
"I will not be performing them on you, do not fear. Now, you have to want to inflict the pain, to want to watch it. You must want and like the idea of your victim being in pain. For instance, when I face Voldemort, I will want and like hurting him." said Harry seriously.
Harry grabbed one of the frogs and placed it in the center of the table. He pointed his wand at the frog.
"You concentrate on them to feelings and sat the words, Crucio." said Harry, his wand pointing at the frog.
Instantly the frog squirmed and let out a squeak. It tried to jump away, though the pain was so intense it couldn't move.
Soon Harry stopped the spell and let the frog relax and gain stability. Then he grabbed it and placed it back in his pocket.
"The next is the Avada Kedavra Curse, the Killing Curse. This is for the ones who aren't so good at dueling and want to kill the person quickly. You must want to kill the person, you must have a strong reason to kill your victim." explained Harry seriously.
Harry noticed Ron gulp and the at the next frog. Hermione's eyes were wide in shock at the sight of the spells. Neville had gone really pale at the sight of the Cruciatus spell.
"For an example, is that Voldemort wants to kill me and he has a reason, I stripped him of is powers and I'm a threat to him." said Harry and then looking down at the frog.
He looked at the frog, which looked asleep. He raised his wand and pointed it at the frogs back.
"Avada Kedavra." whispered Harry quietly.
A green flash emitted from the end of Harry's wand and hit the frog in the mid-back. It instantly fell to it's stomach and rolled over to it's back, dead.
"Now I want you to get some live victims, like these and practice the spells." instructed Harry calmly.
Harry left his friends practicing whilst he went to chat with some of his followers. When he got to the living room he found a man explaining something to Polleo.
"Harry, so glad your here. I have some delightful news. Five Death-Eaters are hiding in a house, until the battle. Two of them are High-ranked." said a man quickly.
Harry's eyes widened, he had a chance to eliminate some of the more dangerous Death-Eaters.
"Take me and some followers. We shall kill them, it shall give us a better advantage of this war." said Harry seriously.
The man told the where-about of the house and then they all disapparated outside. When they got there they looked up to a dark and damaged house. The roof had missing tiles and the windows were smashed. Harry could see a small fire crackling away inside one of the rooms.
Harry led his followers quietly inside. They crept up the stairs, which creaked softly. Once they were on the landing, they could here a sharp voice of a woman.
"The Dark Lord wants you to stay here and keep a look out. You all know that some of Dumbledore's followers patrol around here. The Dark Lord says for you to keep them alive and find out as much information as possible." said she woman sharply.
Harry had heard the voice once before. He had heard that voice at the death of Sirius. It was Bellatrix Lestrange, her voice cackled in the next room.
Harry turned to his followers and noticed that they were all eager but nervous. They stayed behind Harry, waiting for instructions.
"Do not attack Lestrange, she is mine." whispered Harry firmly.
Harry turned back to the door and blew it open, he and his followers ran into the room wands raised. The Death-Eaters drew their wands, though did not attack.
"Why if it isn't baby Potter. You really are growing in your stupidity. You dare come here and challenge us." cackled Bellatrix menacingly.
"How would Voldemort feel if he lost one of his favoured Death-Eaters?" asked Harry aggressively.
He was looking into the skull like face of the person who killed Sirius. He wanted to do so much to her, to hurt her to kill her.
"That day shall not come. The Dark Lord is much looking forward to your death, maybe I will bring it to him early." snapped Bellatrix nastily.
"That will be some challenge. I will send him a part of you, as a message. You shall die for the death of my Godfather." snapped Harry, his hands burst into blue flames.
Fear shot into Bellatrix's face, she eyed his hands and then raised her wand nervously.
"AVADA KEDAVRA!" yelled Bellatrix.
A green flash shot across the room, Harry merely waved his wand and the spell vanished. He eyed Bellatrix dangerously. A battle between the remaining Death-Eaters and Harry's followers had begun.
Harry walked closer to Bellatrix, as she backed away. She shot spells quickly, towards Harry.
"Protego!" said Harry angrily, Bellatrix's spell shot back and hit her square in the chest.
She flew back and hit a wall head on. She fell to the floor and blood streamed from her mouth. Harry knelt down beside her and whispered.
"If you are he best of Voldemort's, then it won't be hard to defeat you all!" he whispered sourly.
Bellatrix looked up into Harry's face, she looked shocked and worried. She eyed Harry's wand carefully and hoping it wouldn't be pointed at her.
Harry looked up to the ceiling and spoke openly. He didn't turn back the Bellatrix until he had finished.
"Sirius, I did as you wished. Your killer will be with you shortly, make her suffer." said Harry softly.
He turned back to Bellatrix and looked into her eyes. They had fear and worry spread across them.
"Bye now Bellatrix, Sirius is waiting. Avada Kedavra." said Harry quietly.
Bellatrix fell to the floor and didn't move there after. Harry grabbed the dead arm of Bellatrix and disapparated back to headquarters.
He dragged Bellatrix's body to the kitchen and grabbed Dobby to one side. He looked at the eager face and instructed him.
"Dobby, I want you to remove the head off of this woman. She shall be sent as a message." ordered Harry hopefully.
Dobby smiled broadly and walked over to the dead body. He returned five minutes later with the head of Bellatrix, in a box.
"Thank you Dobby. I much appreciate it." said Harry happily.
Harry put the lid on the box and then went to the bedroom of headquarters. Inside he found Hermione, Ron, Ginny, Neville and Luna sat chatting happily.
"Baby, I wondered where you had gone to." said Hermione happily, jumping up and kissing Harry.
"I had to go and deal with some Death-Eaters. I avenged Sirius's death." said Harry calmly.
Ron and Neville was eyeing the box constantly. They looked at it as though it was a bomb.
"Harry, what's in the box?" asked Ron nervously.
Harry looked at Ron and then turned to Neville. He remembered that the person who's head was in this box, had placed Neville's parents in St Mungo's permanently. He remembered that Neville's parents had been tortured into madness.
"Neville, can I have a word with you next door?" asked Harry seriously.
"Yeah sure Harry." replied Harry kindly, following Harry out of the room.
Harry led them into another bedroom and locked the door. He turned to Neville and sighed deeply.
"Neville, I understand about what has happened to your parents. I am really sorry about it. I have something here, that may let you rest at the though of your parents being avenged." said Harry softly.
Neville's eyes filled with tears, as he thought about his parents. He looked at Harry, wanting him to carry on though also not wanting him to.
Harry pulled the lid off the box and revealed the head to Neville. Neville choked and was sick in a nearby bin.
"Harry ... is that ... Bellatrix Lestrange?" asked Neville sourly.
"It was, I killed her. I did it for my Godfather and your parents. I will be using her head as a message to Voldemort. I wanted you to know that your parents had been revenged." replied Harry softly.
Neville cried once again. He walked over to Harry and gave him a friendly hug. He cried openly.
"T-thanks H-Harry. I understand a-and m-much a-a-appreciate it." stuttered Neville softly.
Harry patted him on the back and left him to think about things. Harry entered the bedroom where the rest of his friends was. He walked over to the centre of the room and spoke.
"I will be delivering a message to Voldemort. I will travel as my Animagus form and I will be back in a second." said Harry calmly.
He transformed into his phoenix form. With a burst of flame he had vanished. He instantly reappeared in a room filled with Death-Eaters and Voldemort.
Harry dropped the box in front of Voldemort and vanished once again. He appeared back in the bedroom, where his friends had just realized what Harry was doing.
"Harry ... what was in that ... box?" asked Hermione timidly.
"A head, a head of Voldemort's most favored Death-Eater. I avenged Sirius and Neville's parents." replied Harry calmly.
That one done. It is getting very very close to the final battle. I shall write them soon. Just keep reading. :-)
