A.N- might not be pretty, mention of torture
chapter 15
i opened my eyes what the hell happened, I remember getting ready to head the train and met up with Taffy and Chopper in London but I don't remember leaving the school. I looked around the room only to let out a curse how in the name of the old gods did I end up back at the Dursley's, in the basement of all places, looking up at my arms stretched above me so my shoulders nearly popped out, eyeing the chains around my wrist giving a pull only to grit my teeth as they shocked me, forgot my powers are null and void within the wards. I looked to the corner hearing a whimper, I spied the Hounds locked into cages barley bigger then themselves, I can see the runes from here. since I can not feel them or the other through our bond the runes must be blocking us, I can feel bands on myself one on each arm near my shoulders and one around my neck, I can not see them well to find out what they are for. I sighed hearing them up, being my loving aunt and uncle along with their pig-like brat, still how did I end up here, I closed my eyes diving into my mindscape it feels like someone has messed with my memories.
my eye snapped open "that goat fucking bastard" I hissed, the headmaster got me with a spell before placing a collar and bands on me telling me, I am to return to my loving family to be broken as he can't have a powerful dark wizard around. He brought me here before warding the room so I can not use magic accidental or not, even told my uncle have fun as he strung me up like a piece of meat at market before using obliviate on me. I felt the bands heat up in warning as the old wards also gave one, my blood feeling like it's starting to boil, I sighed numbing my mind before reaching out to the wards holding in the flinch as my very magic was attacked as it left my skin. Sighing I looked to the door hearing Vernon moving closer the new wards will make sure no one not added to them can not find me, this is going to be a long summer.
I opened my eyes as the sun hit me from the little window at the back of the room, how long has it been, a week or two, my oh so gracious uncle told me of what the bands do, they stop all my magic from leaving me. If i try the magic in them attacks mine, they were used on prisoners years ago, I looked to the hounds as they curled up as close as the bars would allow they have not been fed since we were locked up in here, I have been forcing my magic through the bond to them even if it hurts me.
I heard them getting up for the day, wonder what he will do today, how long will I remain locked up here. I called up my magic forcing it into the shadows and darkness in the room, I watched as I bit my tongue so not to yell as a large raven formed "trapped, Dursley's wards blocking all" I hissed before spiting out a mouthful of blood as black spots danced in front of my eyes. I saw the raven take flight vanishing into the shadows, I don't even know when anyone will get that message or the magic will collapse on itself before it can get the message to someone who can help me.
-Severus' p.o.v-
I sighed as I watched Law and Maya work on the body on the bed, I closed my eyes before opening them seeing how I found him.
I looked again to the bloody body thinking back to the message I got from a shadow raven a few hours ago while preparing for the start of term and the students that are going to be turning up tonight.
The message looked to be from weeks ago if the magic failing to keep the shadow bird together. I sighed again thinking back to where I found him. Chained and locked up in the basement with a band used on prisoner but changed to shock the wearing if they try to call on their magic.
I flinched remembering I forced my way into the only to find him chained up in the basement, could count every rib, all the blood and the smell. His face a bloody mess the right side infected and swollen, I used his phone to call Law before bring him back to the school then to his dorm. Law and the healer elf Maya met me at the gates before we move him down here, the other professors saw as we moved passed the hall and looked to move closer only to stop when Law threatened to do bodily harm if they got to close.
I looked to my godson as the two healers moved away, his torso and neck covered in bandages, left shoulder to elbow, right hand to shoulder both those burns as is his left leg to the knee. His right eye and side of his face covered to since the scar from when he was a child has been added too cutting through his eye from heir line to lip with two more cuts we fear he has lost his eye.
I looked to the bands on his bedside table frowning as the healers told me he has to heal the mundane way since he wore that thing for over two mouths, any magic used to heal him could damage his own. That and the rune that is burned onto his flesh from the thing that stops magic healing, Maya said she can remove it but not for a mouth or two when the boy has healed.
I took one last look at the boy with the two healers and the skinny hounds curled up at their masters feet before heading off to tell the headmaster he wont be at the feast.
