Chapter 4: The Ancient Curses & Jedi Training
Umbridge was determined to find out who Valentina and Draconis were, and use them to get their father. She had everyone guarded 24/7, day in day out, by witches and wizards from the Ministry she trusted. She had Anakin guarded as well, to be secure he didn't try to find his little siblings. Umbridge had tried to get the father watched as well, but he somehow could avoid the hundreds of 'Inquisitor Agents' Umbridge got into the castle.
Draco knew why: the Force, never ever underestimate the Force, no matter who you are or what you believe in, do never ever underestimate such a mysterious power. Especially if you're not familiar with it.
Harry, Hermione and Draco were on their way to DADA when they heard 2 people argue in that same classroom.
"I teach the children what they need to know!" it was Anakin's voice, speaking loud and clear.
"And the Ministry has to approve." it was another male voice, some neither of them recognized that quick.
"Oh yeah? That stupid text book isn't going to learn them how to use a spell!" Anakin spoke.
"Why would they need to know?" that was clearly Umbitch's voice.
"Some of these children want to become Aurors, and to enroll, they need to know how to perform those spells." Anakin replied. "Do you want your recute Aurors to die quickly once they face a crazy minded loose Death Eater!?"
"Stop spreading this nonsense!" Umbitch demanded.
There was a deathly silence.
"You are not in charge of my doings." Anakin spoke. But this time... his voice... it contained a lot of power, power that only a full trained Jedi could speak with against those opposing him. "I am my own."
"You should learn to respect the right persons, Mr. Skywalker." Umbitch said.
"Oh yeah? You are here the one who should learn how to respect the right persons!" Anakin spoke.
"The Minister will hear of this!" Umbitch called out.
"Go tell your Minister, but know you'll call a very unpleasant old curse on yourself when you do." Anakin warned.
"Hump! You're just a filthy Halfbreed! You don't know anything about the Ancient Curses!" Umbitch said, a determined and self-proud face on her evil ugly toad head.
"Watch your words." Anakin said, taking a deep breath before he blinked with his eyes and narrowed them. His sky blue eyes started to glow. "Determined, yet wrong. Forever you'll be, a Wolf in Mind and Soul. Hungry for Might, thirsty for Power. You shall drink the blood of a Thousand Creatures, changing when the moon's full. The path back, is the One Backwards."
A sky blue light hit Umbitch in the stomach, but she didn't feel any of it.
"This is the drop! The Minister shall remove you from your position and appoint ME!" Umbitch said as she stamped out of the office, not seeing the trio at all.
Meanwhile, Anakin was smiling like a Cheshire cat.
"What was that?" Harry asked.
"That, was an Ancient Dark Curse." Anakin replied.
"A Dark Curse?" Hermione asked with fear in her voice. "I thought you came from a Light family!"
"My father is Light indeed. But my mother on the other hand," Anakin started his explanation. "she came from two very Dark families. This Curse is a typical Curse for the Lestrange family. And my mother's mother was a Lestrange, she teached my mom those Curses, and she passed them on to me."
"Uh... what exactly does the curse do?" Draco asked.
"She'll change, in something that she hates." Anakin replied, the grin coming back on his face.
Harry dumb stared at Anakin while Hermione was thinking.
"You must see the curse as a riddle..." Anakin hinted.
Hermione immediately knew the answer. "The answer! It's hidden in this sentence: Forever you'll be, a Wolf in Mind and Soul." She said.
"Correct! 20 points to Gryffindor!" Anakin said, clapping in his hands and smiling at her. "I knew you'd find the right clue.
"So... the next full moon, she'll change in a werewolf?" Hermione asked.
"Yes, indeed." Anakin replied.
Draco and Harry looked at each other with smiling faces. "Wicked!" they said.
"Uh... aren't these Ancient Curses forbidden or something?" Hermione asked.
"They are." Anakin carelessly replied. "But sometimes, you have to break a certain rule to make your warning clear."
"Will you teach us those curses?" Harry asked with a mischievous smile.
Anakin smiled widely. "I thought you'd never ask." he said. "Oh, by the way, you'll have Jedi Training with Professor Snape, starting today at 8 PM."
'Why did it have to be Snape? Of all people!' Harry asked in his head.
'Because he's the only other Jedi Master at this school, at he hasn't been caught during all those years.' It was Anakin's voice, sounding in Harry's mind.
Harry's eyes wided as he looked up at Anakin.
"Yes, I am able to feel your thoughts through the Force." Anakin said. "You'll learn it too."
"Well, okay then." Harry sighed, giving in that he had Jedi Training with Professor Snape.
Hey, I hope I didn't make you wait that long!
Sorry that I didn't have time to write. First there was this huge writer's block on this story, then I had only inspiration for others, and next I have so many tests an projects! Gods, I hate school!
Well, until next time!
