Serendipity : The Rebirth of Black Lotus

21. Bitter truth

I wanted nothing but silence,
black wood, decay, cold wings;
to lie twisted and turned
as a Serpent
to be in unison with a
Dying Earth~~

"Why?" Cissy asked looking at the broken man trying hard to conceal his tsunami of emotions in front of us, he look at us with pain smile and continue

"That day we had met the crown prince of Ravaryn, first great common born prince taken in by the Emperor, who has far suppressed all other prince proving his worth, that Prince name was Godric Gryffindor, when we all first met I can swear on my magic I saw lust in his eyes for my brother I didn't like it, but unlike other alpha wizards he control himself better than I thought, so I didn't say anything they all become best of friends really soon, one day Zar come to me and tell me about how he meet a witch when he was with Gryffindor and Hufflepuff who was travelling the world to learn something new, she was Rowena Ravenclaw and how both Gryffindor and Hufflepuff are thinking about joining her and he want to join too, I didn't like it, I straight up said no, we fought about it that day, I still remember we didn't talk for a whole day, I just didn't want my brother to be hurt, I decide that I will talk to him next day but, he had already left, leaving me note about how hate me for not letting him go and prove himself to be better just because he is an omega, I never treat him as one all I wanted was to protect my brother but he misunderstand me I don't blame him I did stop him from doing lots of things one of them was, meeting with that Gryffindor, I try to find him incase he hasn't gone further but I didn't, I was really hurt and angry at time so I just unleashed my beast and start wandering and fighting with strong fighters, I never thought about winning over those swordsmen, I was just fighting in order to punish myself because of me and my stubborn self, my little brother hate me and that's how I become the Lord of Seven Swords, after 10 years of wandering I finally got to know about Hogwarts a place for all the wizard and witch who lost there home because of the muggle hunters, I was scared to face my brother, but I also can't bear to be away from him, specially when I heard rumors of my brother going crazy dark wizard, I know my brother is not someone to go crazy that easily, I didn't about anything and just come to Hogwarts, and there I saw....."

  He begins to hyperventilate, as broke down to cry we try to support him but his cries were so heart wrenching that we as well can feel his energy enraging murderously, he continued "There.... I... s-saw....m-m-my b-brother.....c-covered in blood....... a-and that bastard Gryffindor's sword covered in blood as he just look at my brother blankly, I so wanted to just get my sword right through his chest in the exact place he stab my brother but Ravenclaw stop me I saw there eyes widen at the sight as well Hufflepuff was about to touch my brother when I shout at her not too, when a red hair girl in the side of Gryffindor says that he deserved it, I couldn't control my emotions as I yell at her and called her Mudblood, I yell it everyone but Gryffindor doesn't even blink, that enraged me more but I control myself and live with my brother's deadbody, the brother I have take care of as my own child, the brother who was my life, my only reason to live lay infront of me cold and covered in blood, my Zar, that day I lost all reasons, to live as much as I wanted to just kill myself I don't dare too, 'cause I knew my brother won't like, it so I live, I live with all the hatred I have for those bastards specially that Gryffindor, hating him and desire to hurt him as much as he hurt my brother become the sole purpose of my life, one day Ravenclaw come to me and asked to come to Hogwarts with her, I want to deny but the desire to kill that bastard who hurt my brother was so I agree there I saw Gryffindor getting married to that girl I called mudblood, that just increase my anger, we fought with all our might, both not afraid to die, instead just want to embrace it like an old friend, atleast for me, but he all of a sudden broke in front of me asking me where Zar is, as much as I want to kill him, I control my self and leave, I live my life till old age and die but my desire to find my brother didn't let me cross the Bridge of Afterlife, so ever since I am wondering around the Hogwarts looking for my brother but I can't find him but today...."

"You feel his presence" I said

"That's the reason I attack you, I want to be sure that you know where my brother is"

"Well I meet Salazar last night in Forbidden Forest, he said something like when he died his soul shatter around because of which he couldn't cross the Bridge of Afterlife and he said that he will help me, only if I help him in finding you"

"WAIT!" Bella said
"WHAT?" Reg said
"FORBIDDEN FOREST?" Luci said
"LAST NIGHT?" Cissy said
"WHEN?" Meda said

I look at them scared is today my last day on this world, am I going to die this young, I didn't even got my potion master degree, I said a small  sorry with a smile but they give me look that said its not gonna work this time, making me gulp "So, since you are a part of his soul than you need to learn to control your whole energy and I will help you on this and you all will be his protector so I am gonna train you all, now I will leave you all alone to sought out your matter and just don't kill him I still haven't got to say sorry to my brother" he said leaning when he look at me "Oh and before I forget here, take it and keep it safe, I will tell you what it is next time we meet, Good day to you all" he said as he pass me a ring with the design of a snake with two green emerald eyes, I look at it when I feel it's eyes glow when we heard a low growl

"Sev are you alright?" Reg asked looking worriedly at me, how many times it been since they are asking the same question, seems like today is Are you alright? asking day "I am alright, why?" I asked as I noticed they all look worried about something "You're eyes just turn green when you were looking at the ring" Luci explain, I look at him in surprised than look back at the ring, "Try wearing it" Bella said Cissy and Meda seems to say no but slip it in my ring finger when a loud growl was heard I look at other to make sure I didn't heard wrong, in which much to my distaste they nod when another growl was heard "What are you all thinking about, run" Cissy exclaimed in disbelief as we start to run, "Well I am sorry that we are to scared and shocked to realized that" Meda said with disbelief can you blame us we are barely teen in chamber under 15 ft of Hogwarts, with Merlin know which creature as we run Luci and Reg were first to get out and got ready to lock the door the moment we run out I look back to got a glimpse of an incredibly giant snake if I am not wrong than it must be a Basilisk, Luci and Reg lock the door the moment everybody run out as we all fall but flinch when we heard that beast hitting the door, hope it's not rusted, after a long moment we steady our breath as we didn't heard any thump on the door, we sigh in relief and drag our self to common room without thinking about the sake of our appearance, who in fucking dirty underpants of Merlin care about there appearance when almost about to get eaten by a fucking Basilisk, we went to my bedroom in common room when I heard

"SO! Mr. Severus. Augustus. Prince"  Cissy started
"Would you like to say"
Meda continue
"What in the fucking hell were you doing the that fucking forest?"
Bella ended as the very angry Black sisters look at me, I gulp and look at Luci and Reg who just look other way like I don't exist and not about to get killed "Wait! Before you kill me, let me say something" I said trying to change the topic but that once Black sister take interest in something they just won't let it go "Say" Bella said impatiently, did she just broke up with someone or something "So, according to if what Zadornin said is correct, than why did the other do this all things, why they all make such folks about Salazar, specially when Godric love him atleast as a friend" "Well that's actually a good question like you wouldn't just do such cruel things about your friend now, would you?" Bella said looking at us "Not in your correct mind" Luci said "But the bigger question should be what is this ring for?" Meda said looking at the enchanted ring, right now I sincerely feel like one of those Mean Girls from movie, full of jewels and being an omega doesn't help in any way
