Greengrass Ranch:
Astoria watched from the background as the Bones matriarch stomped through the floo. Whatever business she had been conducting prior to being contacted had clearly been interrupted, causing the woman to be in a terrible mood.
The little girl followed the crimson-haired woman, not knowing what was prompting her to do so. Amelia, one of the strongest spell casters perhaps in the entire world, and a master of the psychic arts, couldn't sense Astoria's presence at all.
Not even with her passive legilimency, which gave Amelia a sixth sense of empathetic detection, allowing to pinpoint the sources of emotions that sentient beings naturally had.
Storming into the master bedroom, Amelia came to a stop in front of Lord Greengrass. "Is that the one?" She huffed, indicating to the prone Daphne on the floor. Robert nodded.
"Let's get this over with then." Amelia grabbed a fistful of Daphne's hair and looked into the other woman's eyes to deliver personality death.
Amelia's personality death technique utilized legilimency to implant a psionic ember into the subconscious that would grow into a large fire that burned away an individual's memories, experiences, and feelings. All of it. Everything that made someone who they were, would be burned away.
Once everything was gone, their mind would be a blank canvas and Amelia would paint a reflection of herself. A violent psychopath who got off on torturing the helpless.
Just as the ember sparked to life in Daphne's mind, something strange happened to little Astoria. For the first time ever, the girl was experiencing a feeling.
Astoria was feeling fear for the very first time. She was scared of losing her big sister. The only person in the world who paid her any mind.
The girl was enveloped in light and everything slowed down around her as her perception and mental processing sped up dramatically.
Before the psionic fire could burn away Daphne's mind, something much worse happened to her soul.
Astoria grabbed Daphne by the shoulders, trying to pull her away from Amelia, when it happened. The Light of Obliteration, Magic's Opposite, cleansed Daphne of all the magic in her body.
Since the soul generated magic, it too was washed away by the light, leaving Daphne a soulless husk.
Astoria wasn't the only person in the room capable of moving and thinking fast. Amelia, a master of psychic magic, used her occlumency to boost her abilities to match.
With the playing field leveled, the veteran easily defeated the untrained child. Amelia conjured several animated swords with a simple wave of her wand.
"Weapifors Locomota!"
Before Astoria could react, she and her sister were sliced into pieces by dozens of sword attacks. The Light of Obliteration dispelled the conjurations, but not the physical damage that it did, leaving Daphne and Astoria dead on the floor.
Robert blinked and saw both of his daughters dead and in pieces. "Amelia? What the hell happened?" He asked.
The entire altercation had taken place in the span of a single blink.
"Your daughter, the younger one, was there anything different or strange about her?" Amelia asked in a no-nonsense sort of voice.
"She was a squib. But what does that have to do with anything?" Robert answered.
"It matters because your squib daughter just used what I'm pretty sure was the light that Lord Noctis mentioned. I need to see if this was just a one shot and she was supposed to be a chosen one, or if squibs have some sort of connection to the light." Amelia said in full detective mode.
With her senses on high alert, Amelia heard the sound of the ceiling about to give before it did. She pushed Robert out of the way and kept back herself as a pillar of light crashed down into the room, blocking the two from the bodies.
A humanoid figure emerged from the pillar, its form enveloped in light, making it impossible to discern their identity.
"It seems I was too late to grab our newest recruit. But I'm not too late to remove a powerful piece from the board." It said and from its hand a beam of light shot forward.
Amelia pushed Robert in front of the blast, where it caught him right in the chest, reducing him to ashes. Amelia contained the ashes and used her emergency portkey to send them to Lucius.
If anything happened to her, then at the very least she got a sample of light to study.
"Ictus!" She cast, and a bolt of raw magical energy collided with another light blast. The two canceled each other out.
"Ictus Orbitars! Weapifors!" Two orbs of red light orbited around Amelia as a sword appeared in her off hand. She cut through the light cage that appeared around her, conjuring another sword wandlessly.
Bolts of magic and light continued to clash and Amelia cut through anything that came close to touching her. The two were at a stalemate.
Using all her magically enhanced strength, Amelia threw her sword at the light being. It was easily dodged.
Using her occlumency, Amelia utilized the Parallel Thought Technique, allowing her to focus on two different things at once.
"Pestis Incendium!" She roared out. A portal of swirling black flames opened up, and out of it came a dragon made out of demonic fire. The light-being focused all of its attention on stopping the fiendfyre, using blast of light and various constructs to beat it back and contain it.
"Accio." With a twitch of her fingers Amelia summoned the sword she threw. The sword cut through the light being in its way back, separating it from the waist.
Before Amelia could finish it off, another pillar of light appeared, dispelling the fiendfyre entirely and making the light being and the bodies of the Greengrass girls disappear.
Amelia let out a sigh of tiredness as the battle came to a close. Tapping a finger to her earring she called the others.
"Please tell me you got my transmission." Amelia said, exhaustion in her voice.
"We're putting the memories into a pensieve right at this very moment. And the Unspeakables are studying the ashes you sent me. Look around and see if you can gather any of that thing's blood." Lucius's voice said.
"Already on it." Amelia said, levitating a glowing white liquid into a small vial."
"Once we have results, we're calling an emergency meeting. I don't want more of those things popping up unexpectedly." Lucius said.
"There go my evening plans." Amelia grumbled.
?:
"Your actions have alerted our foes of our existence and your defeat has led to them gaining access to our essence. Please explain yourself."
"I was monitoring the human world as ordered when the board notified me of a potential angel. When I arrived, the candidate was dead. I saw a chance to eliminate a powerful enemy and took initiative." The bisected being said.
"This… initiative… this individualism… it is unorderly. It seems some small part of your previous life remains. Could this be a scripted event perhaps, a machination of fate? There is much to consider. Your failure will be forgiven, but not forgotten. Revive your candidates and continue to monitor the humans. Do not fail me again or I will let Death claim you once more."
"Thank you, Lord Lumina." The half angel spoke.
The Dungeons of Frozen Castle:
Antonin let out a wet sneeze. "Ugh, this place sucks." He complained. Sirius rolled his eyes and stretched his stiff muscles. "Zephyr? Where are we?" He asked.
"We're in wizard space, folded between two rocks somewhere in the Scottish Highlands. Or Master's domain to be more direct. By the way, you guys should really not be here. If either the queen or Bellatrix catch you, they'll kill you, and the castle is being assimilated into the Master's home. We need to go!" Zephyr said in a hurry.
Before either man could say anything, the wind spirit transformed them and breezed them outside of the wizard space, dumping them into the hard ground.
"Ow! What the hell?" Sirius whined. Antonin snapped his fingers. "Hey, focus! We still have a job to do. Where to next?" He asked irritably.
Sirius shook his head. "There needs to be a change of plans. Going base to base like this is getting us nowhere. We need to find the headquarters of the ICW, but I have no idea where it could be."
Antonin thought for a moment. "You may not know, but what about the ICW spokesman? Surely, he would know. What was his name again? Frank something."
"Frank Longbottom. Yeah, he would know, he and his family probably live there. We need to find out when and where the next ICW convention is. Until then, this mission is on hiatus." Sirius replied. Antonin nodded and then apparated away.
"Zephyr, can you take me to Rome? I need to have a chat with Contessa Zabini, maybe gain some info about the next meeting." Sirius asked.
"Sure. After you relax and take care of yourself. You were frozen for three days so take some time to recover first." The spirit said. Sirius sighed at the bossy spirit.
Obsidian Venue:
Bellatrix watched with pride as her son dominated and used his newest toys. The house elves had informed her of the arrival of an ice castle in the gardens. She and a few of the werewolves went to investigate and found the snow elves.
Seeing that they had already been exposed to the Eyes of God, Bellatrix allowed them to join tonight's celebration. She had planned on investigating the castle later, but that was before it slowly started to melt, and Obsidian Venue started to replicate its spires.
It was a problem for later, right now the only thing Bellatrix cared about was making sure Hydrus was happy and that her family didn't recover from their mental breakdowns. She smiled as she felt his pleasure build up again.
Her boy had taken a real liking to Bruma and had declared her his Slave Mistress, putting her rank well above everyone else's, save Bellatrix of course. Using her vampiric grasp, she separated Hydrus and Bruma. The boy let out a pitiful sound as his orgasm was denied.
"That's enough with her, my love, there are others who you still need to breed. You're a Prince Hydrus, it's your responsibility to make sure you knock up as many of your slaves as possible." Bellatrix giggled out. Her interruption was pointless as Hydrus couldn't hear a word she said.
The super lust potion she had slipped him was still in his system and Hydrus was still enjoying its effects. Bellatrix released her grasp and Hydrus immediately tackled the closest person to him, Druella, and shoved his dick down her throat.
Bellatrix gave a smug smile as she watched her mother get used like a whore. This was how things were supposed to be. She sauntered up behind Hydrus, hugging him from behind and whispering into his ear.
"That's a good boy, Hydrus. This is how it should've been from the beginning. Use her, fuck her tight throat until you cum. She's your slave, they all are, it's ok to treat them like this. The only person that matters is me." Bellatrix said, kissing at his earlobe and nuzzling his cheek.
"Who's your mummy Hydrus?" She asked.
"You are! I love you the most! I belong to you! Bellatrix! Mummy!" The boy gasped out, finishing down his grandmother's throat in the process. Hydrus pushed Druella out the way and turned to fully face Bellatrix. She felt a mini orgasm run through her as Hydrus looked at her with an insane, obsessive look in his eyes.
Bellatrix picked her son up, and held him close, kissing him all the while.
"You're such a horny boy, Hydrus. But don't worry, mummy has you now. I'm going to feast on your cum forever. Get me pregnant so I can make you a daughter to fuck. Would you like that my love? Breeding your mummy so you can have a sister-daughter to fuck?" She asked, sounding completely insane.
Hydrus nodded eagerly, flashing Bellatrix a bloodstained grin.
"That's my boy. Let's go somewhere more private. Mummy needs real food to eat." She spun on her heel, disapparating to the bedroom.
Deep Within The Department of Mysteries:
Lucius, Severus, and Amelia were deep within the secret laboratory with the Department of Mysteries. The Unspeakables were running various tests on the remains Amelia had recovered.
"I just don't understand. This stuff is completely unresponsive. Whatever it's made of is immune to magic." Said one of the Unspeakables.
"What about the memories? Were you able to track the trajectory of those light pillars?" Lucius asked.
"It didn't leave the atmosphere. So, whatever this stuff came from is somewhere on the planet at least." The Unspeakable said.
The others sighed at the lack of useful information. "Lock it away and destroy any records of this thing's existence. Amelia, I'll let you inform Bellatrix of the situation, Severus, I want you to find a replacement to run Robert's operations." Lucius planned.
"It'll wait until morning, right now it's late and we have zero information on what's going on." Amelia said.
Morning, Ministry of Magic:
Sirius strolled through the halls of the ministry, looking for someone. He knocked on the door to the minister's office before entering anyway.
"You're supposed to make an appointment." Came Lucius's voice.
"Whatever. Listen, I need a favor. I need a two way portkey to Rome. It's vital to my mission's success." Sirius explained.
"Granted. Now get the hell out." Lucius replied. Sirius left the office with a calculated look on his face as his plan started to come together. Right now the only thing he could do was investigate Project: Phoenix Force.
Sirius had once been stationed to the underground IDA base beneath the colosseum. He had been in charge of a covert research team that was looking for the Jewel of Janus.
Rumor had it that the Jewel of Janus was a mythical object capable of bending time. Sirius didn't fancy the idea of IDA having access to such a thing. He would break into the IDA base, steal some information, and expose the base to Contessa Zabini.
Once it had been revealed that there was a secret IDA base in her country, the Minister of Magical for Italy would use her powers to call an emergency ICW meeting. The First Wizarding World War would no doubt start, and Sirius would use the chaos and confusion to kidnap Frank and hopefully distract IDA from Project: Phoenix Force.
"Zephyr. I need your help with something. Have you ever heard of something called the Jewel of Janus?" Sirius asked.
There was silence for a moment. "Zephyr?" Sirius called again.
"Sorry, I was resting. Transporting a whole castle thousands of miles is exhausting. But to answer your question, yes I have. And it deals with Forces outside of our control. Just like Chaos and Order are opposing universal forces, Time and Space are also connected.
Space tends to favor Chaos and Time tends to favor Time. It's not unusual for the Forces of Order and Time to join together."
"That doesn't sound good! We need to find that jewel!" Sirius said, slightly panicked.
"No! The last time Chaos messed with time, my master was sent to the edge of time. For a millennium there was no magic, or life, anywhere in the universe. Listen to me Sirius!"
"Do not fuck around with time!" Zephyr warned.
"Focus on finding the wand. Once you do that, the Master will take care of everything." Zephyr said.
Sirius pursed his lips and nodded. "Don't fuck with time. Got it. Slight problem with that however. If IDA has the jewel, then we're screwed, there'll be no way to beat them if they can control time." Sirius replied.
"Have some faith. Focus on finding the wand. Master has a plan to erase the Force of Order forever. But he needs you to complete your mission." Zephyr said, trying to calm his partner.
"Ok. You're right, I should have more faith in Lord Noctis. We can put that base on hold for now, but I still want to speak to Contessa. With her influence we could form an alliance of Magical UK, France, and Italy and successfully secede from the ICW. A few countries will immediately join the new coalition and it'll be that much easier to spread Lord Noctis's message." Sirius explained.
"That sounds like a good plan. Once you rest for a while we can go." Zephyr reminded. Sirius nodded and apparated home.
Obsidian Venue:
Amelia sat anxiously in one of the private rooms within the master wing. Not just anyone got to visit His Majesty's home after all. She was also worried about how Bellatrix would react to the news she was here to deliver. Obsidian Venue was quite possibly the most heavily warded building in the entire country. As Amelia wasn't keyed to the wards, simply drawing her wand without permission would activate one of the defense measures and instantly kill her.
The door to the room opened and Bellatrix stepped through. The raven-haired woman was completely naked and covered from head to toe in semen. Amelia blushed just a bit as Bellatrix sat across from her and spread her legs.
"On your knees. If you're going to interrupt my time with Hydrus, then you need to apologize and make up for it." Bellatrix said with a snap of her fingers. Amelia crawled over and began to eagerly eat out the other woman.
Bellatrix let out a sigh of pleasure. "Good slave. Lick it all up. My Hydrus's milk is the most heavenly thing on this earth. Be grateful I'm letting you do this; it's more than a slave deserves." Bellatrix moaned out, holding Amelia's head tight.
Belly let out a sound of satisfaction as Amelia's skilled tongue brought her to orgasm. The vampire petted the other woman's head like a dog. "Good slave. Now then, what do you want?"
Amelia retreated from Bellatrix's crotch, licking her lips. The other woman was right about one thing. His Majesty's seed was heavenly.
"Mistress, something happened last night. Greengrass Ranch was attacked by some strange being made of light. Robert was killed and his daughter's remains were taken by that light-being. Robert left all of House Greengrass to His Majesty." Amelia reported.
Bellatrix snapped her fingers and lifted her feet. Amelia positioned herself on her hands and knees and Bellatrix used her as a footstool.
"If you have any blood or anything like that, bring it to me. If I can't figure it out then I'll give it to Hydrus. I'm certain that he'll know what to do with it."
Bellatrix stood and flicked her wand, banishing Amelia's clothes off her body. "No clothes allowed." She grabbed Amelia's crimson hair and dragged her along.
"Come along, slave. My Hydrus is starting to awaken, and he needs a bitch to breed. You should feel honored that you've been chosen. The last bitch, Alecto, didn't appreciate my perfect Hydrus raping her so I had to kill her." Bellatrix giggled, sounding completely insane.
She pushed open the door to the master bedroom and tossed Amelia toward before leaping into the bed. Bellatrix hugged her son closely and planted kisses all over his face.
"Good morning, my love. Mummy got you a new slave to breed. Once you get her pregnant, mummy will make you cum for real." Bellatrix purred out.
"I'm afraid that'll have to wait, darling. We have some family business to discuss." Bellatrix turned and saw a nude Druella, and the older woman did not look happy at all.
"Grandma!" Hydrus exclaimed happily before walking up to her. Druella picked him up and gave the boy a deep kiss, making him giggle with happiness.
"Amelia, leave." Bellatrix ordered, looking at her mother with hatred. After their guest left, Druella sat down and pulled Hydrus into her lap, encouraging him to drink her breast milk.
"How?" Bellatrix asked forcefully. Druella held a finger to her lips, silencing her daughter for the moment while she attended to her grandson.
"Somnus." She whispered, and Hydrus fell back asleep in Druella's lap. Only after making sure that her beloved was truly asleep did she turn to face Bellatrix.
"You aren't the only one who's been practicing, and I must say, subtle forms of magic really aren't your specialty. I could sense the malice you were giving off ever since you got home. Luckily, Hydrus has a gap in his occlumency shields when it comes to people he loves. Which includes me. I just had him reject the suggestion you made in regard to me." Druella explained.
"I was trying to be merciful. I could've made him hate you and as head of the family, I could've tossed you to the werewolves." Bellatrix spat, gripping her wand.
Druella gave her daughter a sly, vicious smile. "You seem to be under the misconception that you're head of the family, darling." She held up her hand to reveal a silver ring beset with a black onyx engraved with the crest of House Black.
Bellatrix was shocked and fear started to run through her. "That's not for you! How?!" She screamed.
"Lower your fucking voice. If you wake my grandson, I'll tell him everything and I'll have no choice but to punish you in front of him. But as for how, you must have taken it off during that period of time you weren't yourself. I've been holding onto this in order to give my love as a present. But it seems I've found a better use. If I'm not mistaken, you used the family ring to enslave your sisters, didn't you?"
Bellatrix, compelled by the power of the family ring, nodded her head. Druella smiled at the obedience.
"It's clear to me that you can no longer be left to your own devices. I wish it didn't come to this, but in order to make you behave, I have no choice but to make you my slave. That, or I can toss you out of this family and seal you away. You'll never die, and you'll never see Hydrus again. So pick one." Druella said smugly.
Bellatrix's wand gave off a few venomous green sparks as she felt anger like never before. She was well and truly backed into a corner.
"I should've killed you when I had the chance." She hissed. Even as she spoke, Bellatrix kneeled before her mother and kissed the ring on her finger. Druella patted her cheek with a condescending look.
"Good choice. Now your first order as a brand-new slave is to get all this filth out of my house. Werewolves, snake-women, and now elves? My Hydrus needs to breed proper pureblood women, not monsters. I don't care what you do with them, just get them out and replace them with proper slaves." Druella ordered.
Bellatrix scowled as her body moved on its own to comply with Druella's demands. "Oh, before you go, I want you to watch this." Bellatrix watched as her mother modified Hydrus's cock ring, adding her own personal rune and deleting Bellatrix's, severing her mental link and control over Hydrus.
"Now you can go." Druella said, dismissing her with a wave of her hand. Bellatrix left with angry tears in her eyes as the sounds of Druella's orgasmic moans and gasps filled the air behind her.
"What do you call me Hydrus?" She heard Druella ask.
"Mommy!" Came the boy's answer. The tears fell and Bellatrix swore to kill her mother the first chance she got.
