They led me further into the forest.
We walked for hours.
The sun slowly rose again.
We arrived at a cave.
There were lots of spiders in front of it.
The other spiders joined the others outside.
I was looked at from all sides.
One led me into the cave.
"What's your actual name?" I asked
"My name is Alasta and yours?"
"Y/n riddle"
The spider led me deeper into the cave.
There are spider webs everywhere.
We arrived at a dead end.
"Tell me everything about yourself! Voldemord never had a daughter so who are you?"
"My life is complicated. My name wasn't Y/n Riddle but Y/n Black. Regelus Black and Lina Black were my parents.
Voldemord was apparently obsessed with me and he apparently kept trying to get me.
It got to the point where we hid in the Potters' safe house.
My father, regeleus Black, left us beforehand to get a solution to the Dark Mark.
The night Potter became famous, not only did his parents die, but also my mother and my older brother.
My oldest brother and I disappeared and hid with friends...

... then to now where my father sent us on a mission to the ministry and we failed. The whole world knows he's back and he wants his power back."
It had taken hours to tell all of this. I had told everything, how my father had treated me, everything, every little thing.
"So that means he never left, he just had other priorities?"
" Yes "
"Then why did he immediately give up the war and not try to kill Harry Potter first?"
"I don't know but in any case I should now convince you to help him again.
But I don't know how to convince you because actually there aren't many positive things for you except for my father."
"The Dementors obey you?"
"Yes, at least they have in the last few years"
Alasta stared at the ceiling with her eyes.
"We will decide in two days. As long as you can stay here. Once we have decided, we will only take your orders and those of your father. No one else can say what we should do, okay?"
"Okay"
The spider quickly found a place for me to sleep.
I knew if she voted against us I wouldn't be able to get out of here.
Alasta left me alone to probably talk to her other spider friends.
I looked around the room.
It was dark. I didn't know whether it was day or night.
After a short while three spiders came back.
They were all so big.
Her eyes stared at me.
" How old are you?"
"15"
Her eyes looked in all directions.
They looked at me.
I got goosebumps.
"Don't be afraid, nothing will happen to you here yet"
"yet. I don't think anything will happen to me here!"
" Why do you think that?"
I let the flame appear in my hand. The spiders immediately took a step back.
I let the fire grow huge in my hand.
I stared into the fire.
It turned green.
The fire showed with my emotions it was just courage.
Red represented emotionless and blue represented fear.
"What can you do?"
"A lot of people say I belong where everyone comes with too much power. People are afraid and this fear makes stronger people take the power. They don't understand that they are usually the problem why some people get too much power. When people are not afraid of my father, he would never have gotten this far."
I closed my hand and my arm was on fire.
The fire turned red.
I floated the fire.
" What else can you do?"
"Too much sometimes. I'm constantly guarded, watched because they think I'm dangerous"
"You're probably dangerous too. What 15 year old kid murdered, killed, has control over dementors and is so manipulative and one of the best at black magic that has ever existed, you are dangerous and they all know it too"
"There are better ones than me at black magic"
"You have a dark aura, you are dangerous. Believe me, every animal can sense that. You could take up more of the world than your father, but your priorities lie elsewhere.
You are not behind power you want justice and understanding that makes you so dangerous.
EveryAnimal knows how dangerous you are and they have fear.
You are not unside dangerous but inside when something is not going like you want then you can get thr dangerous wizard with a few others in the world. But I think it's best when you don't get the dangerous person because you have a beautiful soul. A little bit dark and damage but beautiful"
I looked up at them.
I looked at her.
"You may not be good at white magic but you are perfect at black magic. Which spell have you already performed?"
"I have a Dark Mark hidden from reveal spells"
"We want to know what you're capable of, you're going to fight one of our spiders tomorrow and if you win we're on your side, if not then not"
"okay"
I went through all the spells again in my head.
Then I went to sleep.

When I woke up again the fight was on.
I got up, took the last dagger and was taken out by Alasta.
There were thousands of spiders outside.
"Good luck and break your neck"
The fifth day since I've been out here was better than planned.
It was dark so we were probably heading towards day 6.
I saw a spider standing in the open area, large and with huge claws, standing in front of me.
I spun my Dagger in my hand.
" Y/n if you win we are on your side and we will listen to your orders if you lose you lose. Let the fight begin"
The spider came towards me.
I hurled many curses at her. With my wand.
"crucio" I whispered.
It worked He laid on his stomach.
Then I put my wand away.
The spider was still on the ground.
I let fire flare up in my hand.
I formed a ring and placed it around myself and the spider.
I imagined a knife cutting the spider open again and again.
It worked.
The spider came towards me and tried to grab me with its claws.
I hit them away with the knife every time.
She swung one leg towards me.
I imagined the knife cutting her leg.
I heard the spider growl.
She was missing one leg.
I let the fire around him heal the wound.
All the spiders were watching me.
Alasta was very impressed when I didn't kill the spider.
" you won "
I looked at Alasta.
"I knew that it wasn't just about power, power and evil"
"You have a good character.
We will help you to help your father and thereby save your life.
You give us the orders, see you again soon Y/n riddle."
I went to the hill.
"and your leg will grow back soon, you don't have to worry"
"Tell us, bring someone and we'll sort it out"
" Thanks "
I disappeared behind the mountain.
One species was clarified.
It was dark, so dark.
I walked through the forest.
My stomach growled.
I felt the urge to eat something.
"lumos"
I shined my wand at the ground.
"Expect Patronum" I said.
Nothing came.
I tried to remember something positive. Maybe the time with Mattheo or the tower.
But there were always sad background things.
I tried the time I was out with Draco. Did not work.
When I got penney.
I remembered this and started to smile.
"Expecto patronum"
Suddenly another patronum came out of my wand. It was a snake it was penney. She was my patronus.
So the old me died.
With every torture it causes more scars.
I looked at the sky.
My stomach was growling again.
I arched my back. It felt bumpy, like there were scars running across my body.
I had to get out of the forest before I could apparate.
How do I convince the giants that? they have never fought before?
They've mostly stayed out of it and I think they'd rather continue to do so.
I followed the map. She showed me the way out.
I didn't feel even remotely observed.
I climbed over a fallen tree.
This tree reminded me so much of the tree I fell down the waterfall.
Everything looked the same.
It was slowly getting brighter.
Animals started making noises.
My legs hurts from walking so much.
Branches cracked under my feet.
The sun was just rising.
Everything looked the same.
My stomach was growling so loudly.
I looked around the forest.
There was nothing.
I was hoping there would be some berries or something.
I heard birds chirping.
I took out the map and read it again.
It would definitely be another day before I was out of the forest.
After about 2 hours of walking, I found a bouquet of berries on the ground.
I picked them up.
There weren't many, just a handful.
I ate two berries and put the rest in a plastic bag.
Should I just apparate out of the forest because what difference does it make?
It would Set an Alarm but when the come I would be long gone.
After much deliberation, I decided to simply apparate out of the forest.
I imagined the mountains and apparated.
I stood in front of big mountains.
They were very high.
I look around.
There were just mountains everywhere.
They went up steeply and there was even snow at the top.
I took out a rough map from my father and looked at it.
I was at the right mountains, but where are the giants supposed to be?
I decided on one further back that disappeared into the clouds.
I went to the mountain.
There was no clear path, only cross-country.
I walked over branches and all sorts of things.
I could already feel the cold coming.
A cold wind hit me.
I immediately got goosebumps.
After 2 hours I arrived at the mountain.
I looked at the mountain.
You couldn't even see the top.
So far it hasn't been steep.
I started walking up.
Rocks kept slipping and making things more difficult for me.
I started walking up the side.
Stones kept slipping beneath me.
I looked down and had already come a long way.
Luckily I wasn't afraid of heights.
The sun was now almost setting again.
I arrived at a flatter spot and decided to stay the night.
My stomach was growling so loudly.
I lay on the ground and watched the sky.
My Dark Mark became visible again.
But I didn't care now.
I gathered some sticks and lit a fire.
