They quietly made their way back to the other side of the lake where the train station was at. Sapphire got her things together and started to get out of the boat. Before she could get completely out she heard the sound of the Dementor’s chest rattling. She turned around to see
it handing her a letter with a wax seal. She knew what had to be done. She placed her thumb on the wax to make her thumb print to show that she had actually got onto to the train. She tried to look into the distance to see the castle for last time. But alas there was not a full moon and it was hidden in the darkness. She quickly gathered her things to get away from the horrid creature. Just then, it and the boat vanished. That sent chills down her spine as she ignored those around her and quickly boarded the train. She was returning to her home in Ireland.

The train started off slowly as iaileailed along the country side. She looked out the window only to see her reflection in the glass. Even though it was night time, she couldn’t sleep knowing what had transpired that eve. Her lip was still sore as she reached up to gently rub the spot where Lucius had so cruelly slapped her. The history was there between them, during the time she was in the last part of her school days. She was growing up, and he had taken advantage of her. She knew he was a powerful death eater. As she drew the curtains to carriage door, she raised her sleeve and looked at the dark mark on her arm. The snake coiled its way around the skull with ease. She flashed back to the night when she was taken and by begging for her life she was marked.

It was late one night when she was finishin her her studies in Professor Snape’s class. She had worked so hard all the years to be on the Professor’s good side, and Draco had noticed how she stayed late and quickly reported back to his father. She mainly tried to stay after late as she knew that she would either be escorted back to her dorm by the Professor or an available Prefect. One night though, as fate would turn, the Professor had an emergency, and the Prefects were tied up the common rooms. She gathered her things and tried to quickly return to her dorm. She had been sorted into Gryffindor that year, and the dorm was rather far off from the potion’s class room. She walked down the long dungeon hallway looking around and over her shoulders quite frequently. She knew she had to get back as Lucius was known to lurk the halls to keep her from talking to Dumbledore. As she approached the staircases, one of the portraits on the wall opened up. There standing before her was Lucius Malfoy.


He was as cold as ever, his long blond locks laying down upon his shoulders, his cloak then wrapped around him as he crossed his arms. His cold grey eyes pierced through hers. She tried to quickly climb the stairs, but his long arm reached out and grabbed her by her robes and pulled her in behind the portrait. “I finally catch you alone, Miss Raven!” He sneered. He grabbed her arm forcefully and drug her down the hidden corridor. “What do you want with me, Malfoy?” She snapped back at him. “You are in no position to ask questions.” He roared back at her.
They continued at a fast pace through the hidden passage way. It was cold, dark, and the only light was that of the torch that Malfoy was carrying. She then realized he was taking her into the Chamber of Secrets. As they entered through one of the corridors, she tried to free her arm from him. He quickly pinned her against the wall. With his cane he pulleck sck some the hair that had fallen into her face. “Think you were trying to escape? I think not.” He then forced a kiss on her.
She tried to struggle and managed to pull away from him long enough to slap him. “You bastard!” She shouted. She then found herself upon the ground as he knocked her down with the back of his own hand. She was quite a distance away from him and he was known for his brute strength. She looked up and saw the snake heads around her. She also saw where the basilisk had once lived. She thought after Potter had defeated Voldemort that the Chamber was permantly sealed off. She thought wrong as she watched a dark figure approach her from behind one of the snake statues.

She tried to stand on her feet, but found Malfoy’s cane on her shoulder. “You will kneel before your Master.” He growled. “Never.” She replied. Then a voice came from behind the cloak, “Break her Lucius.” Before she knew it, she was pulled up and her clothes had been ripped off of her by the stroke of Malfoy’s wand. She was thrown to the ground hard and abrupt. Lucius remained clothed, just allowing enough exposure of himself to do as the Dark Lord commanded.
She struggled as he merciless raped her. As he forcefully kissed her she bit him on his lip causing him to bleed. “This one bites my Lord.” He sneered at her as watched the Dark Lord approach them. As he wiped away the blood with his hand, he slapped her with that same hand bloodying her face. Lucius forcefully pinned her down onto the hard concrete floor as he continued to thrust into her. The Dark Lord with an evil laugh, walked over to them. He muttered in a language she did not understand but before she could react her body was sheer pain. She could not tell at the time what whas going on. All she knew was her arm burned and she could smell the flesh as it seared.


“You are now one of us.” She heard Malfoy say in a low voice. “Now, my pet, no man will ever look upon you as you are marked, not even your precious Professor Snape. I will complete the process my Lord.” She started to shutter wondering what he meant by “completing the process.” Before she knew it, the Dark Lord pinned her arms down with his cold icy fingers. She watched as Malfoy then transform into a creature of the night. His face grew paler, and his teeth grew into fangs. He then forcefully bit down into her neck. The pain went through her as she tried to block him out of her mind as he was reading her thoughts and knowing what she knew. He suddenly withdrew from her with a glitter in his eyes. “Seems we have an Astral Traveler, my Lord.” The Dark Lord growled with delight. “Good work Malfoy, I knew this one was special. She will be the one I use to return to this world. Do with her as you please, but keep her alive. I will return with the plans of my return.” Lucius nodded as the Dark Lord disappeared. Lucius then bit back down into her neck as he continued his vicious ravaging of her. She pleaded with him to stop, but finally blacked out from all the events going on. (To be continued)
