Death Reincarnate Chapter 5

Chapter 5

"For there was nothing in his eyes but the black night and the cold stars." –Neil Gaiman

December 24, 1991

Death… why do I feel sad and… kinda happy?

It's because of him. His emotions are bleeding through.

But you said that you can feel every one of us equally. Why are him and I so close to you?

Because you're the ones that are the best matches for me.

So does that mean that he could have been here, and I could have been there?

Yes… that is true. It's all down to the possibilities. So many possibilities… one little change from one little point about one little thing can have some of the biggest impacts on your life.

…That's a lot to think about…

Sure is…

"Nicolas Flamel… Nicolas Flamel… where is Nicolas Flamel?" Damien whispered to himself, as he searched the rows upon rows of library books.

As soon as the boy had finally come across the F's, he foolishly set aside his oil-lit lantern and his father's "borrowed" Invisibility Cloak, in order to better scan the books on the shelf.

When he had come across one that he figured was the right one, he opened it to find a screaming head made out of paper. Its screams rung through the air at loud and always changing pitches.

"Holy sh-" he loudly began, before he stopped himself and closed the book.

"Who's there?!" a voice shouted, startling the young child, "I know you're in there!"

Crap, he thought, before he grabbed the cloak and attempted to run for it.

Unfortunately, Damien didn't realize that he had also put the lamp on top of his cloak, and so when he moved it, the lamp shattered into pieces.

Shit!

Damien quickly put the cloak on before he ran like a bat out of hell, silently rushing past Filtch and into an abandoned classroom.

The boy closed the door and locked it with a simple spell that his father had taught him.

That was close… Damien breathed, before he turned around to face… a mirror?

What the…?

As Damien walked closer to the mysterious object, Dumbledore watched the boy from the shadows, silently casting a Compulsion Charm on the mirror. This made the boy see his family in the mirror, cancelling any other wish that the boy might want.

What neither realized was that another figure was lurking in the shadows, watching both the boy and the old man's movements like a hawk.

Interesting… Harry thought, But I'll talk it one step further…

The young albino focused on the mirror, willing it to bend to his needs.

The image of the perfect family slowly receded from the mirror, slightly confusing the auburn-haired boy before a new image appeared.

Isn't that… um… who is that again? Damien wondered, as the image of his brother and him smiling and playing together replaced the one with Lily and James and the rest of his family.

I won't give him the answers all at once… I'll give him hints and clues until he'll finally come to Dumbledore and ask about me. Hopefully, it will get him out of the old man's grasp. And then we can have some fun.

Dumbledore watched the young Potter boy with an inquisitive look; not the look of a grandfather looking at his grandson with pride and joy, but more so as a scientist looking at their latest experiment with detachedness and indifference.

The boy is powerful, no doubt about it… But I may have to speed up this little experiment. I'll need him to be absolutely loyal to me before he leaves my school…

Harry gave the man a cruel smile, as he knew exactly what the bastard was thinking.

We'll see about that you rotten piece of shit!

My love, we are needed elsewhere, Death suddenly whispered, slightly startling the boy, as he had focused all his attention on the duo.

But I was just in the middle of someth-

I know, but you'll want to come on this little… trip… I promise it will be worth your while.

Harry gave the woman an irritated sigh before he begrudgingly left with his… whatever she was, leaving behind a confused boy and a falsely victorious Dumbledore.

Harry's Room

Are you sure about this?

Positive. He needs this more than anything at the moment… besides, it will be a good test of your skills, as well as his.

How come you never mentioned you could do this until now?

… You never asked?

Ughhh are you serious?! Do you know how much fun we could have had with this! I could have killed Dumbledore a million times over!

It doesn't work that way. You can only influence events by appearing in his subconscious, you cannot however control his body. Nor can you tell him about what is to come… Although, I do not believe that he will need that much help.

… So you're saying that I get nothing out of this?

Experience darling, experience.

Bullshit!

Stop complaining! Let's just go. You have some events here that you need to take care of as well. We mustn't be late for that.

Righhttt because Damien can't do shit for himself… I like the other one better. At least he could handle this shit…

Death simply rolled her eyes before she opened the midnight black portal, inky blobs of Darkness seemingly oozing out of it. The portal was about seven feet tall and looked as if it led to nowhere and everywhere all at once.

Harry gave an irritated sigh before he stepped through the inky Darkness, not fearing the portal for a second.

Good, Death smiled, before she too unnecessarily stepped through the portal, next stop: to a land of ice and snow.

Author's Note:

HOLE-E-SHIT HE JUST DID THAT?!

I just did that.

My reasoning? When I first came up with Black Frost, I had so many ideas about what Harry should be, that it was hard to choose just one. And so, with some inspiration from the DC comics that I love so much but don't actually read, I decided to create (drum roll pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee) A MULTI-VERSE! That's right ladies and gentleman, I have created a multi-verse. Now, I'm not sure if other authors have done this (probably but idk) but I just felt like doing it with these two (and possibly more) stories.

I'm probably gunna call this the "Sokoverse" for now. It's a… bad name, but I don't know what else to put it as. Maybe the Deathverse? As Death is present in both stories? Tell me what you think.

Now, this isn't to say that they will always meet and whatnot and the Harry from Black Frost will get all of the answers from Death, but it will mean a super awesome scene between them in Black Frost which you'll be able to read after this. (or before this idk)

Reminder: This story is more comedy to me than anything, as I am just having fun writing something that I don't have to take too seriously.

Another thing. Second and third years will probably only get three chapters each, as those years are not important to my story at all. Fourth year however, is where everything changes. Soooo that's why I want to get there really quickly. Thoughts on that?

Okay, I'm going to shut up now. Thanks for reading! Byeee
