Hermione's panting on both knees and Voldemort stood there.

"My Lord please don't hurt Ms Granger." pleaded Severus.

"Silence." commanded Voldemort.

"What are you going to do to her?" demanded Harry and Ron.

"Might I suggest torture?" asked Bellatrix.


Voldemort pointed his wand at them.

"I said silence." hissed Voldemort.

That made even Severus shut his mouth.

"No muggle-born has ever fought against me, and lasted for that long." commented Voldemort.

Hermione looked up at the dark lord in response.

"I am surprised that you a muggle-born witch, survived this long." continued Voldemort.


Hermione got to her feet and Voldemort blinked.

"I hope you're enjoying that scar I gave you." mocked Bellatrix.

"You carved mudblood into my arm, you sadistic cruel woman." snapped Hermione.

"(Hmm...)" thought Voldemort.

"I will get you, Bellatrix Lestrange." hissed Hermione.


Severus yanks himself free and glares at Bellatrix.

"You did what to my student?" demanded Snape.

"Are you deaf, did you not hear what she just said?" mocked Bellatrix.

Voldemort snaps for them to stop.

"Enough." commended the dark lord.


Bellatrix giggles evily as Severus's frown darkened.

"(I swear I will get her for this.)" thought Hermione and Severus.

"I have never seen such determination from a muggle." commented Narcissa.

"Oh my god, can we focus on what's important?" snapped Lucius.

"Be quiet, I don't know why you're still alive after breaking the prophecy." snapped back Bellatrix.


Voldemort smirks evily as he turned to face Lucius.

"My Lord, please I have a son and Narcissa my beautiful wife." pleaded Lucius.

"(That nearly brought tears to my eyes.)" thought Narcissa and Hermione.

"And why should I care, you disappointed me and you expect to live?" asked Voldemort.

Lucius fell slient as tears began to form in his eyes.


Voldemort prepared to kill Lucius with Avada Kadabra when suddenly...

"No!" yelled Narcissa.

"What?" asked Voldemort.

"Please don't, just let us go and you'll never see us again, we'll take our son too." pleaded Narcissa.

Voldemort thought and then nodded, this surprised everyone.
