The Better Chaser; James Potter

Chapter 20- The Dark Mark

The journey back felt like it passed by slower, even though I made it in four days as well. I arrived home with one extra day to spare to my deadline. I transformed on the window ledge back to my human self and entered through the window. I then decided to draw a bath, I was very sore from the long days of flying and I wanted to reward myself for completing my mission. After my bath I wrapped myself in a robe and went downstairs to make myself a soothing cup of tea. I had the bag with me, worried that if I let it out of my eye for one second the cup would disappear. My parents weren't home and I waved at Tikki when I entered the kitchen chatting casually as I made my tea. I then took it out to the dining room and sat, grabbing a book and reading it.

I forgot what it was like to relax, I thought as I sighed contently, reading a good book and sipping my tea.  

After finishing my tea my parents entered the house, probably just getting back from work,

"You're back?" My father asked confused,

"Yeah why?" I said, just as confused,

"The dark lord said you returned to Hogwarts," He explained,

"Well I did, but I need to meet with him I have something very important to discuss with him so I came using the Floo network from Hogwarts like I used to do," I made up,

"You can't request an audience with the dark lord," My mother said scoffing,

"I can and I will," I said defiantly. My anger rose slightly, 

I didn't fucking do all this just to be told off by my parents

I then got up and walked to my mom, I grabbed her hand aggressively and touched it to her mark against her will, calling the dark lord to us. I cocked my head at her and gave her a sickly sweet smile before turning around and sitting down again and picking up my book. I saw both of my parents gape at me in shock, and just when they were about to tell me off, the dark lord apparated into our dining room. It was only then that I noticed I was only wearing a fucking robe,

Way to keep it professional Watson

"What is the meaning of this," He said agitated looking at my parents, he hadn't seen me yet,

"My lord," I said, bowing as he turned around to look at me. He stared at me for a moment,

"Leave us," He said and waved his hand which pushed my parents through the dining room door and slammed it after them, "I see you made it back in time, did you run into any," He paused, "difficulties," he finished,

"Nothing I couldn't handle my lord," I replied. I then reached into my bag and pulled out the cup, walked towards him and held it out for him to take.

"Ah, it is even more extraordinary in real life," He whispered as he took it from my hand, "You have done well Reigna, and for that you will be rewarded," The dark lord informed me, "The ceremony shall occur tomorrow night," He added,

"Thank you my lord," I said bowing to him, showing my gratitude, "It is my honor to serve you," I added, kissing his arse some more,

"I have great plans for you Reigna Watson, just wait and see," He spoke, hissing a bit. He then apparated out of the room in a flash and I was left standing there stunned at our encounter.

HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! THIS IS ALL GOING TO PAY OFF! I'M GOING TO BECOME A DEATH EATER, FUCK YEAH!!

And he said great plans? Holy fuck I can't believe I pulled that off and got him to trust me. Merlin I feel like jumping. 

So I did I literally jumped up and down in glee, even giggled a bit. My joy was interrupted by my father clearing his throat. I instantly sobered up,
