Bellatrix's accomplice

Chapter 25

Bellatrix sent the Lestrange brothers a letter, we are expecting them any minute now.

There was a popping sound and the two men appeared before us. "So, what's the plan?" I said. "We need to go to the ministry, try and force some information out of some Aurors" Rabastan said. We agreed to go there immediately.

We all apparated to the ministry and came across two people, Frank and Alice Longbottom. The men grabbed them and we apparated them back to Malfoy Manor.

"Where are we? What do you want from us?" Frank yelled as his wife struggled in Rodolpuhs' grasp. "We want answers. Where is Lord Voldemort?" I shouted

"We don't know!" Alice cried. "LIES" Bellatrix yelled, shooting the cruciatus curse at them. We laughed as they screamed in pain. She held the curse for quite some time before releasing them. the couple panted and winced at the torture.

"Now, explain what happened to the Dark Lord. Or we will kill you both" Rabastan snarled. "Please no, we have a young boy. Neville" They were thrown to the ground by the Lestranges, "we don't care about your son. We want answers"

"Please! We don't know what happened to him. For all we know, the dark lord could be dead!" Frank exclaimed.

I was getting bored now and we clearly weren't going to get what we wanted from them. So, I yelled "crucio" and held it for even longer this time.

Their screams filled the manor. The louder they were, the happier I felt. Suddenly, they both stopped screaming. "Y/N stop!" Bella yelled. But I didn't stop until she disarmed me.

"We need to move them. We could go to Azkaban for this" I then realised what I had done. I almost killed them! The Lestrange brothers dealt with them and Bella apparated us back home.

"Y/N, that was brutal. I think you just about killed them" she laughed. I gave her an evil grin, I'd never felt more alive!

A few days later

"Y/N love, have you seen the daily prophet" I shook my head as she placed down the newspaper before me. I picked it up and read the headline. "Aurors Frank and Alice Longbottom in critical condition after being victimised by the cruciatus curse"

I looked back up at Bella and she gestured for me to read on,

On the 10th of August 1980, Aurors Frank and Alice Longbottom were tortured to insanity at the hands of the cruciatus curse. The culprits are yet to be caught but things aren't looking well for the couple. Their young son, Neville, is being placed under the care of his grandmother as recovery isn't likely for his parents. We wish for everyone to remain positive as the dark wizards that caused this pain and misery will be found eventually.

I had to stifle a laugh, "do they really think they're going to find out it was us" Bella gave me a disappointed look. "I'm sorry Bella. But they're not going to catch us, they have no evidence. And by the sounds of it, they won't even remember what happened!"

She walked up to me and hugged me, "we need to start being more careful. As fun as it was, we can't risk getting caught for doing things like that" I agreed with her reluctantly. "But what are we going to do about the dark lord?"

"I guess we will have to wait for his return" she shrugged. I knew she was right but I couldn't help but feel gutted. I really enjoyed myself the other day and would love to do it again.
