Ultimate Betrayal: Chapter 29



The Secretary, High Lord and Zion turned around to give the King and his Consort a moment of privacy. Knowing that the two was hurt by the answers. As well as Wyatt, declaring Magical Treason was even harder for them.


Wyatt stood stiff as he held his husband, feeling the tears soak into his robes. It was almost too much for him to be able to continue. He as well as the others had no knowledge of what Aiden had gleamed from the two. Moreover, knew they would have to address that as well after the other two were questioned.

Aiden had finally stopped crying, but didn’t release his silencing charm. He knew his eyes had to be red and from the place on Wyatt’s robes that was damp that his face was wet as well. Sending a drying charm to Wyatt’s robes before looking up at his still stiff husband.
When Wyatt looked down at him with cold eyes, he knew they were far from finished. In addition, that whatever Aiden wanted with these prisoners would be mute. Wyatt would decide punishment regardless of Aiden’s protests.


“Bring in the next one.” Wyatt announced startling the others in the room. Before watching Aiden morph, the redness out of his eyes and face. He then realizes that Aiden was not going to change into his phoenix form. “You’re not changing into Storm?”


“I… did you want me too?” Aiden asked as he looked at Wyatt’s eyes.


“What do you two think, should Aiden change again to finish?” Wyatt asked the Secretary and Nigel as he moved to sit with Aiden straddling his lap.


“Not unless Aiden can’t get the information otherwise.” Nigel remarked with concern for the two young men before him.


“I agree, if you can without being Storm, then I see no reason for you not to remain as you are.” Secretary Jengens confirmed with a small smile.


“I can still get the information, but my eyes change color doing it in my human form.” Aiden replied with amusement.


“What color?” Nigel asked slightly taken aback at the look in Aiden’s eyes.


“White.” Wyatt and Aiden announced together. Causing both Jengens and Nigel to cough.

“I think Storm should be present then. Because that would just be eerie.” Jengens stated with uncertainty.


“It is.” Wyatt confirmed with a slight shiver as Aiden shrugged before becoming Storm, just in time as well. For a moment later Zion walked in with two guards and one of the twins.


Nigel decided that he would be the one to question this prisoner. In addition, when there were no objections he grabbed the prisoner, placing three drops of Vertiserum on his tongue. Moreover, began his test questions.


“Name?”
“Frederick Weasley”
“Age?”
“22”


Then the important questions began, but the answers surprised them all. Not only had the young man been drugged to keep him from helping Harry Potter. However, he had been drugged into helping Dumbledore in the attempt to capture the Charmed Ones. He also had no idea what was to become of the Charmed Ones once they had been brought to Britain. Nigel had to end his questioning, for anymore would be invading the young man’s privacy.


Storm trilled in anger and confusion. He didn’t get anything out of Fred that placed him guilty of the crimes he was arrested for. In addition, wondered what Wyatt was going to do now.
Jengens and Nigel as well as Zion looked toward Wyatt with shock. They could not believe that one of the prisoners was innocent, also wondering what he was about to do.

“Mother of Magic we have a prisoner completely innocent of all crimes. Now what to do with you?” Wyatt stated with authority, as he looked at Fred then at the others.

“Sanctuary?” Jengens, Nigel and Zion announced with question, they knew that Wyatt had the final decision.

“Perhaps, but first.” Wyatt began before turning toward the two guards and commanded. “Bring in the last prisoner, I wish to see if this innocents twin is equally so.”

George walked in and was about to sit beside his twin, when he was pulled further away. He did not miss the look of worry from his brother. On the other hand, the fact everyone seemed slightly amused by his actions when he came into the room.


“Storm!” Wyatt commanded catching everyone off guard as the ice phoenix flew over toward George to stare him directly in the eyes.


George flinched slightly as the phoenix narrowed his eyes. He didn’t know why the phoenix was looking at him so closely. Or how a phoenix could question anyone. Until he felt another presence in his mind other than his brothers link, causing his eyes to widen.


*Hello George Weasley.* Storm trilled softly as he continued to watch George’s eyes widen even more.

“How?” George asked in shock.


“Another one of Storm’s abilities, Mr. Weasley.” Wyatt announced in amusement, he had wanted Storm to use this one for a while now. To see if he could hear him as well and found that he could. Nevertheless, was not sure if it was because of their recent bonding or not.


*I am about to have a little look see, so just relax or I might forget my manners.* Storm trilled coldly as he began to invade George’s mind quickly looking for anything that would damn the man.


Wyatt chuckled coldly as Storm’s statement, causing the others to look at him in confusion. “I can still hear Storm. I would heed his warning Mr. Weasley, because Storm is quite mean when he wants to be. “


‘Hush you, I’m busy!’ Storm snapped at Wyatt, before going back to what he was doing.


Wyatt smiled coldly, he was enjoying himself. Glancing over at Zion, he could tell something was wrong with the Kindred Lord. It seemed that Zion’s magic went slightly darker when the announcement was made about the first twins innocents. Deciding to have Storm scan him when he was through with the other twin, he turned toward Jengens and Nigel.


To Wyatt’s knowledge, they seemed impressed with this ability of Storm’s. Also seemed to be confused that they hadn’t known about it prior to now. However, Wyatt didn’t like to lay all his cards on the table at one time. Surprise was always a good thing at least to him.

*All done, see that wasn’t so bad. Was it?* Storm trilled at George, before flying back to Wyatt’s lap.

Once on Wyatt, Storm nuzzled into his stomach, while he told Wyatt everything that he’d seen from George’s mind. When Wyatt had asked him about Zion, Storm gave one more nuzzle and went to land on the Kindred Lord’s shoulder.

*Wyatt is worried about you. Wants to know what’s wrong?* Storm stated as he nuzzled Zion’s cheek.


Zion closed his eyes briefly before staring at Wyatt. He noticed the worry in the young Kings eyes and decided to tell Storm through telepathy. =The first one we questioned is my mate.=


*Oh snap and Wyatt didn’t declare him innocent. Is that what got you all broody?*


=Yes, little one.=


*Don’t worry, Storm to the rescue* came the determined trill as he nuzzled Zion one last time before going back to Wyatt’s shoulder.

Wyatt looked at Zion with a raised eyebrow, before turning his attention to Storm. Wyatt’s eyes widened slightly at being told Longbottom was the Kindred Lord’s mate. So turning back to Zion, he lowered his head. Letting Zion know that he would take care of this issue as soon as possible. In addition, when Zion bowed back, Wyatt knew he made the right choice. He truly did not want to lose Zion’s friendship over a mate.

“Guards choose which two of you will return to your posts, while the other two will remain.” Wyatt commanded before he stood up to begin pacing the room with Storm still attached to his shoulder. He briefly sent a message to Storm asking him to change back.

Storm trilled before flying off Wyatt’s shoulder changing back into Aiden, before landing gracefully on his feet. Everyone shook their heads in amusement, except for the twins they had no idea that the Consort had been in the room all this time.


“Husband-mine they look like fish.” Aiden stated with cold amusement as he noticed the twins faces, but smiled softly when Wyatt chuckled slightly and the others snorted in amusement.


“That they do my own.” Wyatt chuckles before kissing Aiden’s temple. Before turning a serious face at the twins. “I will grant the two of you Sanctuary here at Avalon. However you will be guarded, I will not have you going down into the dungeons under any circumstances. The both of you will follow the laws of Avalon as well as the laws of Sanctuary. If you break one of those laws. Let us just say you will regret it. So see too it that you do not.” Wyatt commanded before motioning the guards to take them to the wing for those having Sanctuary.

Once they were gone, Wyatt grabbed Aiden around the wais, before addressing the others. “Aiden needs time to process the memories he found. Therefore, we will set another date to review them. I feel it will be easier if they are on paper for all of us to see.”


“Agreed, just send word Wyatt and the Secretary and I will return.” Nigel stated before guiding the Secretary out of the room. Leaving the King, Consort and Kindred Lord alone. For he felt the three needed to discuss something privately.

“We are friends, are we not Zion?” Wyatt asked as he noticed the Kindred Lord nod, before he continued. “Then why did you not inform me of this mate?”

“He was in a cell with two others, before today I had no idea which one was my mate.” Zion stated calmly, he knew that Wyatt would understand his reasoning.

“Zion, I’m saying this as your friend. Not as your King, he is not completely innocent. As such, it bothers me to let him walk free. However I am willing to allow him freedom, if you can get him to accept a full turn. As well as answer more questions that may arise when we interrogate the others.” Wyatt stated with understanding and concern.


“I will see it done my friend and King.” Zion stated with a small smile, he did understand where Wyatt was coming from. Nevertheless, it warmed him to know that even though Wyatt was King, he still was his friend first.


“Alright Zion get out of here, and go get your mate.” Wyatt stated with amusement as he watched the Kindred Lord walk out the door, almost giddy.

“I love you.” Aiden spoke as he wrapped his arms around Wyatt, burying his face in Wyatt’s chest.


“And I you.” Wyatt whispered as he orbed them back to their chambers. He wanted to be comfortable when Aiden showed him what he had seen.

Dungeons


Neville was silent after his return, even when Dumbledore and the others tried to get information out of him. He just refused to talk, he couldn’t wrap his mind around some of the questions he had been asked. Why would they care about Harry? In addition, what does it matter about that prophecy? Because Harry was dead so Voldemort had already won. Right? Were many of the thoughts that ran through Neville’s mind. His thoughts were halted when Ron came through yelling at the guards as they dragged him back toward a cell. He wanted to groan when they placed him inside with him.


“You need to be silent human. Magical Treason is a death sentence.” Gabriel snapped as he pushed the red head into the cell, with more force than necessary.

“I did not comment treason, blood sucker!” yelled Ron as the cell door slammed shut and be spelled again.


“If not then the King would not have stated it so.,” snarled Thomas behind Gabriel, he was angry to hear the word treason. Knowing the King would not have announced it for any reason.

The other prisoners gasped at hearing Ron had been sentenced with treason. However, they didn’t know what the difference between High Treason and Magical Treason meant. Moreover, when Dumbledore had asked the guards just laughed at him. Therefore, Albus turned his attention back to Ron, since he was now closer to him.


“Ronald, who was in the room with you? And how did they question you?” Albus asked with a grandfatherly voice.


“Well the King, a Vampire that had been down here before and a female secretary as well as another man. And I was dosed with Vertiserum.” Ron stated with anger, he felt he had been wrongly sentenced.

“And the Consort? Where was he?” Albus pushed on as his thoughts went inward. The King would have to be there, and this secretary was probably the Secretary of Magic, the Vampire was of nobility. However, the other he couldn’t think who else would be needed. He was brought out of his muses with Ron’s voice.

“I didn’t see him. However, they had a phoenix in the room. It was black and silver and the King seemed to glance toward it a lot.”

“It’s an ice phoenix Albus, we seen it the day we were moved here. The King called it Storm.” Kingsley stated as he moved to sit by the bars of his cell.

“Ice Phoenix you say, how interesting they are not known to bond to wizards.” Albus remarked stroking his beard.

“But the King is not a normal wizard is he?” Minerva question from behind Dumbledore.

“What gave you that idea my dear?” Albus asked with a twinkle in his eyes, he really wanted to know what his Deputy had discovered that he had not.

“This King is completely pure, his magical aura is gold. That tells me that he is no normal wizard, if he’s even a wizard at all.” Minerva stated softly before changing into her cat form to rest again.


“Interesting my dear. Well I guess we’ll just have to wait until our time comes to be questioned to test your theory.” Albus mused before resuming his questioning of Ronald.

After several hours, Albus was beginning to wonder where the Weasley Twins were, and if they would be labeled with treason as well. For he knew they were the only two that were completely innocent among them. They had been gone longer than the other two boys had and it was starting to concern him. He lifted his head when a voice rang out calling for a guard, as he noticed the same Vampire that had been there once before.

Lord Zion was almost giddy at the thought of gaining his mate after all these centuries. He had begun to lose hope of ever finding one, until now. It was a shame the Royal family had to be attacked for him to find his mate. “Gabriel, Thomas where are you!” His voice rang out as he stepped onto the dungeon floor.


Gabriel’s head became visible at his name. He was shocked to see Lord Zion; he thought the other prisoners would not be questioned today. So exiting the office, he made his way toward his Lord. “Lord Zion, what brings you down here? The King is not questioning more is he?”

“No the King is not questioning anymore today.” Zion stated loudly enough for the prisoners to hear, before leaning in to whisper in Gabriel’s ear. “However my mate was brought back down here. And I have been given permission to claim him.”

Gabriel’s eyes widened, he was thrilled that Zion had finally found his mate. “Congratulation’s Lord Zion, but I’m confused. Why was your mate brought down here?” He stated with a whisper.

“He was one of the prisoners that were questioned.” Zion remarked with a whisper, not wanting the prisoners to hear.


“You were given a boon, from the King?” Gabriel stated with awe, the King did not give boon without just cause.


Zion nodded sharply and motioned Gabriel to follow him. He noticed that Gabriel was a bit worried at the cell they stopped outside of. For their was only two that had come back from being questioned and he hoped the Zion’s mate was not the one that committed treason.


“Which one, Lord Zion?” Gabriel asked with concern. Nevertheless, sighed when Zion pointed to the one that had remained silent upon his return.

Neville looked up at the Vampires, and was nervous when the one that questioned him pointed right at him. In addition, started to shake slightly when he heard the other calling for more guards. He watched as four additional guards arrived and opened the cell. He did not move just waited for whatever was going to happen.


When the guards had stunned the others inside with him, two grabbed him roughly by the arms. Dragging him out of the cell literally, because he was so scared that he could not walk. Once he was out, they released him only for him to go down toward the floor. Only he did not hit, instead to strong arms caught him. Looking up he noticed the Vampire from before, and the only thought that went through his mind was, Shit.

Zion looked down at his mate and noticed he was afraid of what was going to happen. Without a word, Zion pulled the boy into his arms bridle style, ignoring the gasp from his mate. As well as the fact, his mate’s face went red with embarrassment. Nodding to Gabriel and the others, he turned to walk back up the stairs. Not stopping at the yells from the other prisoners wanting to know where the young one was being taken.
