The second life of Harry Potter

Chapter Four

Okay chapter 4 take two. 

 As Harry was staring at the imposing maze, he felt more nervous than the first time. This time he knew what lay at the end of the maze. The cannon went off and the four were separated by the ever-changing labyrinth. Dumbledore watched calmly as his little weapon went to what was sure to be his undoing, not fazed that the 14yr old may die. "Just like last time. Just escape the giant spiders, a sphynx, and man-eating vines. I'll be just fine." Harry was scared out of his mind, with the blocks on his personality now off, he felt like a scared kid. "Answer my question, young one and I will let you pass. What does not have lips but kisses?" Harry looked at the giant Sphynx as the majestic beast smiled at him. "A dementor." Harry was given a smile and small lick from the cat. "Right little master of death." Harry was allowed past he ran past the spiders and other beasts placed in the maze with ease. Fleur and Viktor were pulled from the task by reasons known only by the other champions. "Now to save him or let what happened the first time." Harry was standing close to where the cup had been and waited for Cedric to come crashing through the thick shrubbery, the Hufflepuff didn't disappoint. Both males grabbed the cup and were transported to the graveyard. The place was just as creepy as Harry remembered and he dreaded the meeting of Wormtail, the man who made him an orphan. "What is this?" Cedric didn't sound happy about where they ended up. "I think we are stuck in a graveyard." Harry tried to play it off, but he wasn't doing such a good job when he saw the man in the shadows and wished that Tom was holding him. "Tie up the spare." Baby Mort said and Harry was excited to his soulmate's voice. "Run Harry, get to the trophy and get others here!" Cedric was screaming at him, and Harry only went closer to the cauldron. "Why would I leave my soulmate?" Harry showed Cedric the mark that said LORD VOLDEMORT in perfect calligraphy. "It must be a trick so he can kill you, Harry." Cedric was straining against the statue's stone arms. Harry just ignored the man and helped with the ancient potion that would raise his lover. "Bone of the father unwillingly given, you will renew your son. Flesh of the servant willingly sacrificed; you will revive your master. Blood of the enemy forcibly taken; you will resurrect your foe. Lock of hair given in love; you give sanity to your soulmate." As the potion began to bubble and turn to emerald, green, the same color of Harry's eyes. Soon the cauldron turned over and Voldemort rose, the same snake-like man that had shown himself the first time around. "Robe me." Harry ran and threw a black robe over his lover's body. "Good puppy." Voldemort praised and kissed Harry's hand. "Pettigrew!" The rat man whimpered as the cowardly man came closer. "Raise your arm." Peter raised the stub that was dripping blood. "Thank you master." "Not that one, the other one you imbecilic." Harry even flinched at his lover's tone. Voldemort called his followers to him and transfigured a mask for Harry. The death eaters arrived, and Harry was shocked by who he could see. Lucius Malfoy, Narcissa Malfoy, Severus Snape, Fenrir Greyback, Walden Mcnair, and even Remus Lupin and Sirius Black. "Welcome my loyal followers, allow me to introduce to you to my equal; Lady Noctis." Harry was pulled closer to Voldemort's side, and he smiled at being claimed by the man as his equal and lover. "It has been thirteen years since you last stood before and here you are as if it was yesterday." Harry watched as some of those gathered started to shift on their feet, uncomfortable with the red gaze of the Dark Lord. "I was keeping your influence in the ministry my lord." Lucius bowed but his voice wavered, and his hands were shaking. "I couldn't lose Dumbledore's trust in me." Snape said bowing. "I was broken out of Azkaban and many compulsions as was my mate." Sirius spoke and both him and Remus bowed. "Witness Lady Noctis's first official kill." Tom handed Harry his wand and whispered in his ear. "Just use the spell that brought us together my love, the one that we first said." Harry blushed and then raised the Yew wand and spoke the ancient spell clearly. "Avada Kedavra." Voldemort smiled as the others cheered at how well their lady did at killing Cedric.  "Where are the others?" Harry whispered only for Voldemort to dismiss his followers and apparated to Riddle Manor. "This is as much your home know as mine. As for your other question my most loyal are now locked in Azkaban." Voldemort's appearance melted away to reveal a slightly older version of diary Tom Riddle. "I hate to say this my love, but you have to go back to Hogwarts." Harry started to cry. "I only need you to give the news of the Hufflepuff's death and then I need you to find Barty and he will bring you home to me." Tom kissed Harry lightly before doing a spell that made it look like Harry had been in a fight. "Madam Pomphrey won't be alone with you. I love you." Harry held Tom tight for one more hug before he had to pretend to be sad over the death of Cedric Diggory. When Harry landed in front of the crowd, he was immediately met with Dumbledore being all comforting almost as if he knew that either Harry or Cedric would be dead. "He is back! Voldemort is back! He killed Cedric!" Harry was sobbing over the death of Cedric and how he made himself cry was by the thoughts that in his past life he had killed his own soulmate. "Come with me." Mad Eye Moody (AKA Barty Crouch JR) said as he helped Harry to his feet and brought him to his office. "My Lord told me to take you to him after I leave this note." Barty had begun to change back to himself, so he took another swig from Mad-Eye's flask. "Hold on tight to me my lady." Harry held onto Barty as they went through the Floo to a well-respected and very cleverly hidden Death Eater's home. "Welcome to my home Lady Noctis." The woman held out a hand to Harry and then led them away from the floo before she closed it off and then spoke spells that Harry had never heard before. "No one can come through now unless they know the new words." Harry saw her smile as she used her wand to make food appear in front of him. "I am Beatrice Becker. I have served our lord since the beginning." Beatrice then ate a blood cake; it was the first time that Harry had seen a normal looking vampire. "You're a vampire?" Beatrice smiled and then nodded her head. "I am, but you needn't worry about my need for blood I have it all under control." Beatrice then motioned for Barty to leave. "You need to clean off that scent before it makes me lose what is left of my sanity. I hear the voice of Barty but see the face of that awful murderer." Barty apologized and then left with a small laugh. "I am going to help you look more like yourself my lady." Harry was given a warm bath and the fake cuts and bruises were gone. "Now, I am going to try and tame this hair." Beatrice began to lightly comb and then brush Harry's hair into soft gentle waves. "I help abused children and with that I have many clothes for all, you may pick anything you like, it is yours." Harry was speechless he had never been allowed to pick out whatever he wanted. Harry's eyes were drawn to a sweater dress even though he went to the boy's clothes. "I see you like this." Beatrice held up the dress to Harry's frame and made adjustments to the dress to fit Harry's slim form. "Now to pair this with these and some soft shoes and we can take you right Lord Voldemort." Beatrice helped Harry with the dress and then placed a light kiss to his forehead. "If you need someone to talk to or to get some great clothes from, I am always one fire call or owl away. If you need some advice or a just a safe place just twist the jewel three times, for a call just tap it three times." Beatrice gave him an emerald ring. "It was mine when Lord Voldemort first helped me to be free of Grindelwald's lover." Beatrice hugged him and smiled when Barty came back in. "That is my handsome man." Beatrice and Barty kissed lightly before they apparated to Riddle Manor.
