Chapter 42
"What!" said Thomas, stupefied. "B-But I'm the boy-who-lived!" he cried.
"You are nothing," said Voldemort. "I remember vividly that night, 13 years ago when I visited the Potter house on Halloween," he said to his death-eaters who were similarly surprised, not having realised there were 2 small mirrors hovering around Harry and Thomas's heads. "I brushed aside Dorea Black. Before me were 2 babies and I could sense one was much more powerful than the other. I did what had to be done- I threw a curse on Harry or Hadrian Potter but through old, arcane magic, some spirit appeared and the curse deflected and struck me instead."
Voldemort paused for dramatic effect as his death-eaters booed at the right time. "I was defeated, nothing more than a wraith and I fled. But after 13 long years I have returned, more powerful than ever before and I will take my revenge by ending the Potter clan"
All eyes snapped to Harry who was gaining consciousness. "What?" asked Harry as he was trying to free himself and saw everyone staring at him.
"You knew you were the boy-who-lived and you didn't tell me?" Thomas asked, feeling betrayed.
"Now is not the time," gritted Harry.
"I can't believe you," said Thomas. "I thought you-"
Voldemort,interrupted, not interested in their arguments. "I shall end this how it all started!."
Harry groaned as he freed himself from the ropes and stood up, looking towards the voice he turned to see Voldemort and the other death eaters were looking at him "oh...hello Tom. It's nice to meet you again" Harry told, his smile turning to that when he used to be very cheeky.
"So Tom" Harry said as if he was having a regular conversation "how are you doing these days?"
"The fuck is this you can see I am tied up here in front of Voldemort you are asking my well being have you gone insane.." Thomas started
"Shut up Thomas i was talking to Tom Marvolo Riddle, So Tom how are you doing these days" Harry asked casually
"Do not call me that" Voldemort replied
"Call you what? Tom?" Harry said, pretending not to know "Why? It's your name, is it not Tom Marvalo Riddle?"
"You will show me respect" Voldemort aimed his wand at Harry
"Do you think that I don't respect you?" Harry asked, causing Voldemort to pause "You'd be wrong, I do respect you. I respect you a lot"
"Do you?" Voldemort asked
"Yes, with just a few hundred men you were able to bring an entire country to its knees' ' Harry replied "and it's clear to anyone with a brain that you're a powerful wizard. If you kill me tonight then people will know that Voldermot is so incompetent that it took him 2 tries to kill Heir of Potter Clan and they will know why they should not mess with Potters."
"Hmm, perhaps you have some intelligence after all" Voldemort replied clearly not pleased on his incompetence to kill him in first try and taking two tries to kill and taking that as a insult from a 14 year old boy
"I respect you, I just don't like you" Harry responded "I respect your abilities but I do not respect who you are"
"Is that right?" An amused Voldemort asked "Tell me then Potter? What am I?"
"You are the half-blood son of a muggle and a squib and you think you are better than muggleborns at least they are better than you they don't have mixed parents like you,but you are great you make purebloods kiss your ass even if you are son of a squib and Muggle at least i am better than you i have both magical parents" Harry said, making Voldemorts eyes widened
"Crucio!" yelled Voldemort all of a sudden. A jet of red light hit Harry, who screamed his throat dry. It felt as it white hot knives were digging into every inch of his skin and as if he would soon succumb to the curse but all of a sudden the pain stopped, and Harry's breathing eased.
"Wow" Harry said between heavy breaths "is that the best you got Voldemort?" Thomas, the death eaters and the people watching through the mirrors all looked at Harry like he was crazy "I expected better from you Tom"
"Careful Potter, you will regret your words" Voldemort warned
"You don't even know the meaning of regret, wait till my Grandfather finds you he will teach you the meaning of regret with practical explanation you dare abduct Heir primary and Heir secondary of Potter Clan you filthy Mudblood" Harry yelled at him and smirked. everyone watching that had their mouths open that Harry had called Voldemort Mudblood
"You dare call me Lord Voldemort a Mudblood you brat" Voldemort yelled at him pointing his wand at him
"Yes Mudblood is a suitable word for people like you at least muggle borns are better than you they are not children of squib and a muggle or born with the use of Love po.." Harry was about to continue when crucio was sent to him which he dodged; he was after all trained by Lord Charlus Potter now during the tournament he had started training more brutally.
"Come on Tom boy it's bad to interrupt while someone is talking, it's bad manners to interrupt" Harry smirked and opened his hands and blasted the gravestone using wandless magic. The gravestone that Harry was tied before exploded, covering him in dust and smoke. Voldemort fired a killing curse into the dust, but it was clear that he missed when Harry rolled out of it and jumped away from Voldemort to gain some distance between them.
Voldemort fired another killing curse, Harry ducked under it then aimed his hand at Wormtail. Harry's wand flew from Pettigrew's pocket into his hand, he then blocked Voldemort's bone breaker.
"Wandless magic?" Voldemort asked, clearly impressed
"Yep, I'm full of surprises" Harry nodded as he fired an eye gouging curse at Voldemort who blocked it
"That was a dark curse"
"You think I care?" Harry said as he dodged Voldemort's cutting curse, and retaliated with two cutting curses of his own and a bone breaker.
. "You're not letting me go, are you?" Harry asked
"I'm giving you a chance. Duel me Potter, and if you manage to beat me you can go. Or are you already giving up?" asked Voldemort.
"Confringo!" yelled Harry not giving Voldemort any favours. A pale blue light shot out of his wand but was flicked aside by Voldemort almost instantly, hitting some decrepit gravestone to his right.
"My lord!" gasped the death-eaters but were stopped by a thin hand.
"He is mine!" yelled Voldemort. "Interfere and I will flay the skin from your bones!" He turned his attention to Harry with a gleam in his eyes. "Didn't anyone teach you how to duel, boy?" asked Voldemort, throwing a couple of crucios that Harry ducked under. "You're not meant to start early!"
"Didn't get put into Slytherin for no reason," gritted out Harry bringing up a stone wall to defend against the killing curse Voldemort had sent at him. The spell hit his wall and turned it to several pieces of sharp rubble, all of which were banished at Voldemort. The pieces of rubble were absorbed by the shimmering shield Voldemort brought up, turning them to dust.
Voldemort threw a barrage of hexes and curses onto Harry, a few of them connecting onto various parts of his body. A gash appeared on his right arm, and he heard a snap from lower down his leg which was followed by what felt like a sucker punch to his stomach. Harry quickly cast numbing charms onto the points of pain and muttered a few spells from under his breath.
A gravestone ripped itself out of the ground and flung itself at Voldemort, along with 3 more, and they were followed by a shield-shatterer and a bone-breaker. Voldemort simply sidestepped the first 3 gravestones and raised a shield to block the last one, not realising there were 2 spells behind it.
The Dark Lord could feel his magical reserve depleting rather quickly he knew he was not allowed to use much of magic soon after the ritual but he was fighting a boy what can that boy do to first spell broke apart Voldemort's shield with a loud bang and the second hit the Dark Lord straight on the collar bone, resulting in a spray of blood and a loud crack. Voldemort bellowed in pain and crouched down, bringing up a silent shield against the brutal onslaught of spells that followed from Harry. He made a fist with his free hand and snapped it open, and the ground erupted at Harry's feet, sending him flying into the air and hitting his back on a grave.
Voldemort slowly stood up and mended his collarbone with a swirl of his wand and advanced towards Harry who was curled onto the ground. "You actually hurt me," gasped Voldemort, shocked. "Well done," he said softly. "Too bad you won't be able to finish the job."
Voldemort raised his wand and pointed it at a slowly recovering Harry, and yelled, "Crucio!" The red light hit Harry once again, this time fuelled by even more anger and hate, and Harry thrashed on the ground in pain. He screamed until he could scream no more and blood began to come out from his nose. Voldemort sadistically smiled and lifted the spell to see his enemy's face before he ended. "AVADA-" He was suddenly sent flying far into the Harry had banished him and he had used his Shadow elemental powers he rushed towards Voldermot Harry grabbed Voldemort by his bottom row of teeth, and pulled down, causing intense pain in Voldemort's .
Harry had pulled Voldemort to his knees, signifying his superiority over the dark lord.
Harry punched him in the face repeatedly, Voldemort's blood shot out from his mouth and the slit's where his nose should be. Blood dropped onto Harry's hand but he didn't stop, his speed increased. He punched harder and faster, he was going to get as many punches in as possible.
With a sudden burst of energy, Voldemort pushed Harry's left hand off of him, he tried to fire another killing curse with his hands. Harry dodged just in time as the curse flew a centimetre from his leg, he flipped over Voldemort and landed behind him.
Harry had taken his wand out as Voldemort was on ground was about to cast a curse when
"Potter!" A voice called Harry turned to see Pettigrew holding Thomas with his wand pointed at Thomas's neck.
"Stand down or your brother gets it" Another death eater shouted as he and the other death eaters pointed their wands at Thomas.
"Harry, don't do it!" Thomas shouted
"Sorry little brother" Harry slowly removed his wand from Voldemort's face who was unconscious because of the fall "but family first. I really am sorry if I've disappointed you"
"Harry!"
"But I've come to like you and I have to get you home alive, our family would miss you. Plus who is Rachel going to snog if you're not there?"
Harry slowly walked up to the death eaters, Pettigrew stayed still along with Thomas while the rest circled around Harry.
"Scared Potter?" One taunted
"You don't even begin to frighten me" Harry replied, unfazed
"Is that so?" One death eater said as he fired a cutting curse which clipped Harry's cheek, Harry didn't react to it
"Oh, a tough man" Another one said as he did the same to Harry's other cheek
"Let's have some fun" A voice that sounded suspiciously like Tiberious Nott said before blasting Harry in the right foot with a bone breaker.
Harry yelped in pain but didn't get much time to react before he was hit with a torture curse from two people at once. He was in utter agony but he didn't fall, he remained standing through pure willpower.
"Did that hurt?" Nott taunted as he fired a cutting curse, Harry clutched his right side which was now bleeding thanks to the cutting curse.
"Barely tickled" Harry said defiantly "I wonder if that's what your wife feels like when you fail to satisfy her in bed"
"Crucio" Nott fired the spell at Harry again "that ought to teach you some manners"
"I ought to teach you some tips on disguising yourself, Nott?" Harry
"How dare you?!" Nott roared, Nott fired a bone breaker at each of Harry's hands. Thunder clapped in the sky as the death eaters laughed, rain poured as they circled their victim.
"Is that it?" Harry mocked Nott, despite the intense pain "All talk and no walk. You just couldn't deliver, could you Nott? I feel sorry for you poor wife, maybe one day she'll get lucky and can upgrade from you to a real man"
"Crucio!" Nott shouted and Harry screamed out in pain
"Touched a nerve, I think" A death eater commented before firing another cutting curse at Harry, this one striking him in the back.
"It's time to finish up but let's start from the youngest" Nott said "Avada...!"
"Zephyr take Thomas and go" Harry yelled as he sent a silent and wandless silencio spell at Nott
A majestic white phoenix flashed in flames on Thomas took him and flashed away the before death eaters could realise
"You boy you are dying here first it's fine we can find your family and finish it after all Potters are always pain in ass for us, your grandfather may be powerful but he is old boy he will join you soon" Nott told him after pointing his wand at him his face showed his displeasure at escaping of youngest potter.
Harry just smiled at him and told "You dare even think you can finish the Potter family. You filth thousands like you came and were crushed by a Potter like an ant is crushed under an elephant. My grandfather will surely find you and finish your line maybe after that your wife can find a competent man for herself"
"Avada Kedavra"The green killing curse struck Harry who had a smile on his face, dead centre in the chest, and Harry fell backwards and landed on the floor. His eyes closed, as his head impacted on the ground. The rain sped up and the thunder became louder as the death eaters laughed.
"Look!" Pettigrew exclaimed "Our lord is moving!" They all rushed over to the moving body of Voldemort.
Thomas appeared in front of the crowd with Zephyr on his shoulder and he landed on the ground while his Family rushed towards him . "Voldemort," breathed out Thomas amidst the deathly silence. "Voldemort's back," he managed to say as he was speechless when he saw on the screen Harry collapsed after the killing curse hit his chest .
He could see his mother and Grandmother sobbing and his father too had tears in his eyes as he held his mother and Grandmother but his Grandfather was not crying but it could clearly see his eyes were red with anger, he stood up as Stan Corner Potters army's commander came to him and bowed and waited for orders
"Raise the banner. Black Dragon will have the blood owed. Potter clan is going to take it vengeance for its scion 'I LORD CHARLUS HENRY POTTER HEAD OF POTTER CLAN, PROTECTOR OF POTTER LANDS. SWEAR ON MY MAGIC THAT POTTER CLAN WILL HAVE ITS VENGEANCE FOR HADRIAN JAMES POTTER' as soon he took the oath magic surrounded him and clouds thundered as tears rolled down his cheek and many pops were heard simultaneously on the grounds in front of them as all the Bannermen appeared wearing war armours with their respective house crest on the armours they bowed to Charlus
"Get your armies; ready raise your Banners, today Black Dragon will have the blood from its enemies. I as the head of Potter Clan order you to attack Tom Marvalo Riddle or better known as Voldemort and his army to finish off their existence for good" Charlus roared at them
Minister fudge who was seeing all these came forward to stop it "Lord Potter I cannot allow you to do this mass killing"
"Who are you" Stan roared at him seeing a womanly man having an audacity to talk to his Lord in that manner
"I am the minister of magic Cornelius Fudge"
"You idiot stand back or else you will be killed"
"Hem-Hem" voice interrupted "you dare talk to minister of magic in that way Aurors arrest him put him in Azkaban" Umbridge interrupted
"Stand back you toad i will cut you into pieces and feed you to toads" Stan told his removing his sword
"You dare to.." Umbridge was cut off by Dumbledore
"Dolores have you gone insane you are talking to commander of Black Dragon or known as Potter's Army he will cut you into pieces before you can even point your wand at him" Dumbledore shouted at her at which she paled and backed up
"Minister you dare question me it will take me only few minutes to take over Britain and i am not Voldemort who is incompetent and do you think ICW will bother about your government once they know who is taking over Britain" Charlus roared at Minister who went back in fear
"My Lord our army is waiting for your orders it is ready to attack" Stan bowed and it had really happened as Stan had an idea if things go worse they may go to war so he had informed the army to be on standby. Stan had a heavy heart right now; he had just seen Scion of Potter Family getting killed by the incompetent Dark Lord. He was impressed by the fight which the boy had put up, Harry had been trained personally by Stan the previous year. He was waiting to fight under that boy in the battlegrounds. He really had started liking that boy .
In the Hogwarts grounds there were Thousands of men with armour standing and one Banner of House Potter high in the sky.
Dorea was inconsolable she was sobbing her heart out on Charlus's shoulder behind them was Arcturus Black with his armour on with Black family Crest..Daphne was with her family sobbing her heart out on her fathers shoulders, Rigel was crying yes Rigel Black Heir of House Black was crying on losing his Brother he swore he will kill each one of them who were responsible for his Brothers death and Draco was no better than Rigel. Each and every member of Black and Malfoy family had tears in their eyes. They were having difficulty holding their tears back; they had lost a person whom they considered their own.
"James, Sirius and Remus I want you to take care of our family and look after their safety here" Charlus told them when he saw they were about to argue "No you will not join us I want you to take care of the safety of our family I have already lost my Grandson I am not ready to lose all of my family today" he told sternly his eyes were red; James and Sirius just nodded
Soon charlus was about to leave to lead his army to little hangleton to avenge his grandson he was talking to Dorea and assuring her that he will avenge their grandson's death he was about to leave when Thomas screamed ...
