Chapter 27: The Kiss of Death
Just a reminder that this is 3 months later from the blood stained hands chapter please review.
Information was hard to come by.
Luna had kept in contact with Harry and Hermione thanks to the mirrors But since the Ministry shut down nobody knew anything. The wizarding world had come to a halt. No one knew what happened but the day after the Minister's death many wizards and witches entered the ministry to figure out what needed to be done. No one left the Ministry that night and nobody could get in to find out why.There where whispers that the killer of Kingsley Shacklebolt had taken over and hauled himself up in the building. The fate of everyone inside remained unknown but people feared the worst.It was common knowledge however that Ron Weasley had massacred Stonehenge and everyone who did not flee. Their bodies were found in the most grotesque ways imaginable. The lack of certainty that it was him shutting down the ministry only caused more panic. The only thing worse then a lunatic taking over the ministry, was a lunatic lurking in the shadows of England waiting to strike anywhere, anytime.“And that is all I know know but I may know no more tomorrow, or the next day, or the next day, or the next day, Or the next....”“That's OK Luna we understand. Are you and Rolf OK?” Harry asked Luna through the mirror. Luna looked off and moved her mirror to show Rolf. He simply gave them the finger.“So he's bored then” Harry assumed correctly.“REALLY FUCKING BORED!!!!”Rolf grabbed the mirror from Luna “I don't mind the forest and the terrible living conditions. Hell it's part of my fucking job. But I want to find creatures to study and I want to kill that cock sucking mother....”Luna took the mirror back. “I actually like it here. It's nice and peaceful. I even found evidence of a moon frog too.” Luna said smiling.“No you didn't” Rolf yelled from the background.It was easy for Harry and Hermione to relate to Rolf. The months had gone by uneventfully for them but the uncertainty was driving them equally mad. At least during the horcrux hunt they had some semblance of a goal. Now they just ran and hid like fugitives.Hermione smiled at her friends as they were one of the few things that made her smile these dark days. “Well bye Luna we'll talk to you tommo.....Luna?” Luna had pulled out her wand and left the mirror on a table as she and Rolf began shushed whispers. “Whats going on?” Harry yelled into the mirror. “Luna are you OK?”Rolf ran and grabbed the mirror showing Harry and Hermione the figure speaking to Luna.“Luna's contact with her Quibbler,” Rolf informed them his voice tense. “She has my mirror since Luna and I are together all the time anyways. She wasn't supposed to come here unless it was urgent. I think something is finally happening.” Rolf said excited licking his lips until he saw Luna's pail face, as did Harry and Hermione.“Its a memory” Luna said holding a vial of silver liquid. “It was delivered by a hooded servant of Ronald. He has indeed taken over the Ministry and wishes for this memory to be viewed by the 4 of us”.There was a dark silence over them. It seemed they had the information they had been waiting for. The only problem was it was information shared willingly by the enemy. Even worse it was in the form of a memory. What horrific visions lay inside the vial?Luna the usually calm, dreamy, witch was shaking with fear. “I ..I will see it....f..first. Then we will meet up together and I..I will show you what....I...see”.Rolf looked into Luna's eyes. “That fucker....he didn't......I'm going kill him...I GOING TO KILL HIM!!!”Rolf left the tent to vent his anger while Luna put the mirror away and looked inside the memory to see it all for herself. “Somethings really wrong” Hermione told Harry in a nervous whisper. “Nothing scares Luna at least not visibly. She usually hide her emotions quite well but she was petrified by that vial of memory's”. Harry shook his head. “I doubt Luna's contact would have brought anything to her unless she inspected it first. Meaning she saw the memory's already and with Luna's mastering of legilimency....”“Luna already knows what she will see”. Hermione finished. “And so does Rolf......What did HE do....” “Judging from there reactions it's something bad Hermione, Really bad”.Suddenly they heard a snap and Luna came running into the tent struggling to carry her pensieve. In her haste she clearly forgot to shrink i which only worried the other 2 further. Luna placed the pensieve in the middle of the tent and then walked outside and feinted. There was another snap and Rolf was buy Luna side helping her regain consciousness. Harry walked forward towards the pensieve scared out of his wits and soon found himself sucked in along with Hermione......into one of the most twisted memories anyone could ever have...........
The memory was almost like a movie since the memory itself was made for one reason. To communicate a message to Lord Mortem's enemies.
Harry took Hermione's hands as they saw their former friend. The figure they believed to be Lord Mortem kept himself completely hidden under hood and cloak making it impossible to identify him. But there was no questioning it was him when a voice began to speak.Is this what you wanted?This is what you get.
You turned my life into shit.
You never accepted or treated me fair
You left me with nothing but despair.
I'll cast a shadow all across the lands
I'll strangle the world with my stainless hands
You never gave me a chance to be meOr even a fucking chance just to be.
But I have to show you that you played a role
and I will destroy you with one simple goal.
The world that hates me has taken its toll
But now I have finally taken control.
You've finally done it you made me this thing
Now it's time to start the killing.
The figure pointed up showing a bloody body dangling from the ceilingI am sorry FatherThis was what you deservedHarry and Hermione both gasped and screamed in shock when Lord Mortem used a Lumos spell to reveal the identity of the body.....Arthur Weasley.“Death by lacerated throat from broken glass. Did not loved other children more s more then me. Betrayed Ginny to her death. His death was of suffering. It is what he deserved.” Lord Mortem spoke this. There wasn't even a hint of Ron left in his voice. Under his hood he was Death Incarnate.The Lumos spell moved to another side of the room. The mangled corpse of Percy hanged there.“Death by Killing curse, Self sacrifice. Mangling of corpse occurred post....Mortem. His death was heroic and painless. A death he deserved.”Lord Mortem lifted his wand a third time revealing Charlie Weasley. “Death by stupidity. Trying to rescue fellow prisoners escape Lord Mortem. There is no escape from Death. You can out run it all your life but one day it will find and destroy you”.“Death by fire extreme suffering a death he deserved greatly”.Nothing could have prepared Harry and Hermione for this. Only now did they truly realize the extent of Lord Mortem's evil. Kinslayer the worst crime imaginable. Harry watched in horror at as Lord Mortem lit the entire room revealing all the corpses surrounded the new Dark Lord. “Man, women and children. Nothing can escape the Master of Death. There is enough room for the rest of the Weasley's and for the 4 of you too rot here”. Lord Mortem then turned to Harry and Hermione He was suddenly inches from the face. Hermione screamed and fell back wards and too there shock pensive Ron started laughing his voice returning somewhat to normal.“You shall meet my servant at midnight in the forest of dean. It is the place were we where once reunited and so it shall be again. He will transport you back here. For every day you are not here another Weasley dies. So you have 3 days to save the 3 survivors...2 actually because today counts as a day 1”.
The scene changed into a room in the Department of Mysteries. It looked almost like a small arena. It even had stands for viewing. Hermione believed correctly that this room was for creatures to fight under the influence of spells and potions. This was done in order to test there effectiveness. Hermione did not voice this theory now as she was too focused on her old friend.
Sitting in the middle of the stands was Lord Mortem surrounded by spirits he summoned from the stone. He clearly made sure to summon the most bloodthirsty and deplorable spirits he could find as they where all salivating at a chance to see violence. Only Ginny didn't seem to be excited on the contrary seemed to be in a state of fear and dread. The only living person in the stands was Draco Malfoy who looked as miserable as Ginny. “TODAY WE BEGIN THE 3 DAYS OF SACRIFICE!!!” Lord Mortem announced in triumph. The spirits applauded while Ron basked in there worship. A light then appeared in the room revealing 2 chained individuals against the wall. The chains broke free revealing them to be Bill and Fleur Weasley.NO!!!! Hermione screamed but Harry held her back. Lord Mortem spoke again. “For those about to die BOW BEFORE DEATH!”Bill was forced to his knees but Fleur resisted. Lord Mortem laughed. “You have a strong will for a veela. But you do not refuse a command From Death. So...”"BOW BEFORE DEATH!!!!!!!!!"This time there was a crack as Fleur was forced down so hard her back was snapped. She fell limp to the floor. Bill's screams where buried beneath Ron's laughter and the cheers from the spirits.IN THE NAME OF DEATH I SUMMON SLYTHERIN TO FEAST ON YOUR FLESH AND BONES. I AM NOT SORRY THIS IS WHAT YOU DESERVE!!!!Fleur was raised magically to her feat as the gate began to open. Draco looked a Ron worried but Lord Mortem calmed him down.“Relax Draco you are safe I have blinded the creature. It's victims will feel more suffering that way”. Lord Mortem said the last part looking at Ginny who seemed to shudder at this. Something that did not go unnoticed to Harry.The gate was now open and then It appeared. Slytherin the Basilisk slid into the room causing Hermione to scream.”We have to help them Harry!!!” “It too late Heroine this already happened.” Harry said trying to stay strong but failing.Hermione had to be held back as she started going into hysterics. “HE'S GOING TO KILL THEM HARRY WE HAVE TO HELP THEM!”Harry almost cried as he replied “He already has.....they are already dead Hermione.”Hermione's face turned pale at this and felt her knees weaken. The two could do nothing but watch as Slytherin slid towards Bill Weasley.Bill was now holding onto his wife lovingly despite there impending demise. “We will see each over on the other side dear Fleur. I love you”. She only nodded and kissed him before Lord Mortem forced them apart.Slytherin then lunged at Bill biting into his flesh and devouring him alive.The room was filled with Screams, cheers and cries as the blood on the floor was all that remained of another dead Weasley.Lord Mortem however didn't seem to pleased as he called off Slytherin and ordered him to return to his chambers.“We will see each over on the other side”. Lord Mortem repeated. “No..No..No.. What kind of punishment is that. Death is not enough for you dear Fleur”.“What do you mean?” It was Ginny who spoke as Fleur was too busy grieving to hear.Lord Mortem turned to his sisters spirit. “You know dam well what I mean”.“NOOO YOU CAN'T!!!” Ginny screamed in Horror “YOU CAN'T DO THIS”“I AM DEATH I CAN DO AS I LIKE!!” Lord Mortem thundered back.“BUT WHY? WHY MUST THEY SUFFER? WHY CAN'T SHE HAVE PEACE? I JUST WANT THEM TO HAVE PEACE! NO ONE DESERVES SUCH A FATE!!”Ginny was viciously struck to the floor by her brother who pressed his foot on her throat. Ginny felt her self start to suffocate longing for the air she could not breath."They deserve what I say they deserve. Don't you get it I'm a GOD!!!"“Your the Devil”. Ginny croaked.I AM NEITHERI AM DEATH DESTROYER OF WORLDS!!!
Lord Mortem stepped off his sisters throat and spoke coldly.“This is your second warning Ginny. Question me again I swear. You will suffer Fleur's fate”.“What what do you mean”. Fleur whispered coming to her senses.Lord Mortem smiled his hungry blood thirsty smile. “Your never going to see Bill again...Ever. I am sorry Fleur you not deserve this but I deserve to do as I please.”The room began to go very cold Lord Mortem approached the poor girl. His breath was freezing the sweet on her face. He began to whisper.“I remember how much I adored you when I met saw you during the Tri Wizard Tournament. I longed to do so many things with you but I think he should start with a kiss”.Harry's hand grew numb from Hermione squeezing it in terror. They remembered Luna's terror and realized in moment of true horror what was coming.“Luna I know your watching this. You cursed me and inflicted Pain on Death himself. Such an unspeakable crime will not go unpunished. Now you will suffer Fleur's fate.”Ron then gently wrapped his hands around Fleur's head and kissed her. He began it tenderly but soon grew more rough....Then the screaming began.Even Muffled by his cold lips Fleur screamed in pure agony. Soon her screams where being matched by Lord Mortem's as he became animalistic an inhuman.They where the only sounds in the now silent room as even the savage spirits were in shock. Ginny was now screaming and crying as she begged Ron to stop.Fleur's eyes began to melt and drip from her face. Her angelic hair turned gray and fell away into dust. Her skin and bone began to rot away as her blood began to turn to ice. It was slow and unimaginably painful as Lord Mortem sucked out her soul..........
Hermione couldn't bare to watch anymore and fled the Pensive with Harry following closely behind. As soon as they emerged Hermione was on all flours vomiting while Luna now more calm but still slightly pail began to rub her back. Rolf sat in the corner of the tent in tears.
Harry spoke white as a ghost. “He killed them. He...he....is..k...killing his family. My family, Only George and Molly are left.....and Fleur....”“You didn't even finish it Harry but it get's far worse. No one should ever witness a Demetor's kiss let alone experence one....Like he plans on giving me”. Luna whispered.“Over my dead body Luna you here me.” Harry insisted determined.“I think that is the plan Harry.” Luna replied as Hermione began to recover. Harry nodded before getting up and leaving the tent. Only then did he finally succumb and throw up as well.Lyrics to the song Kill King 33 by Marilyn Manson were used but altered to fit the story better. I do not own the song or profit from it.
