chapter 3
31.10.81
I watched as mother and father got ready for a meeting of the order, a group ran by Dumbledore to fight against the dark lord, I held in a snort more like a clean up crew as they always turn up after an attack.
Fools the lot of them, I've heard of Dumbledore's second chance policy, how he only lets his men use non-lethal spells. the 'Dark' side use lethal spells, fools there is no good or evil, light and dark in war there is only bloodshed. i grew out of that mind-set before the second war ended, in war there is only death and no one comes out smelling of roses.
I looked to the squib babysitter, an old friend of mother's it turns out, this night all-hollows eve will not end well, everything in me cries out. I have been though wars and countless battles to know when one is about to end, my instincts are screaming this night will end in death. this will be the night that could be the end of war but for which side I can not tell you, we will see come the morn.
I felt the wards full as new ones where thrown up, I made my way out of my room into my brothers as I felt out sitter draw her last breath, who else will be taken this night. I stood before the brat as he walked in, more snake then man, crimson eyes looked to me then over my head at my now awake brother.
The snake like eyes looked back to me as my other half pushed to the forefront of my mind, I eyed the pale wand held in his hand "move aside boy, you are not the one I want" he hissed. I bared my teeth at him wishing once more for my old body "bite me" I growled to this so called dark lord.
This man would not last a week in my original time, I could have killed him at 17, hell even younger, take away that wand and he would next to powerless, that and being faster then him. to bad i am only now getting most of my powers and abilities back now, I think I should have most back within a year.
He hissed at my raising the wand, I crossed my arms over my face as the green spell of death headed towards me, I felt my aura fare up, Basohoku cover me turning my skin black and my elements answer my call. My back hit the wall as my forehead felt on fire, I blinked blood from my eye as JJ screamed. don't think I can pull that off again, so no more taking AK's to the head, I can just hear my crew calling me all kinds of stupid in the back of my mind, I shook those thoughts away. I looked over to the brat seeing his crib knocked over, I watched as a piece of the roof fall cutting into his cheek. I need to get us out of here before the flames consumes all, I spied the robes and ash where the dark lord once stood as I moved towards my brother.
I got us out of the cottage we have called home for all of two months, I watched it go up in flames as I felt the order trying to take down the wards, I held in a snort fools are late to the party it seems.
I moved away from the flames finding a place to sit placing JJ in my lap, I wiped the blood from his cheek seeing a 'V' shaped cut. I held off frowning knowing from the backlash of Black magic I felt it will scar, I tried to think of where the black magic came from as the AK is really a grey spell back when it was first created and should not leave black energy behind. the 'killing' curse was created for killing off live-stock bloodlessly and to give a painless ,merciful quick death to those who could not be saved and to end their suffering, that is till some 'Dark' lord started throwing it around.
I felt my eyes slowly close my body pulling me into a healing sleep, this young body not use to the levels of pain my soul can handle, again I wished for my old body.
