"This feels wrong," Hermione began to tug at Ron's sleeve. "Something isn't right."
"Mione nothing about this is right. Only dark magic gets through your charms." Ron continued to walk up the stairs.
Once they reached the top of the stairs, the source of light was evident - the bedroom. Harry signalled to the two that he was going to walk in, but before he did, Hermione pushed past, and burst in herself, wand raised. What she saw stunned her to silence.
A woman cloaked and masked stood in the centre of the room, twirling her wand in her fingers.
"Well well, if it isn't the golden trio all grown up!" She remained still, despite Harry and Ron now having joined Hermione, all wands raised."Can't even show your face can you?" Ron spat in disgust. The fear in his voice was evident, despite his best efforts to conceal it.
"I can of course, I just prefer the mask - more stylish. But if that's what you'd prefer -" She laughed, and with one swift hand movement, her mask faded to reveal a pale brunette.
Her intensely brown curly hair matched with her dark eyes. She looked ever so familiar...
"You can't be.. It's not possible.." All the colour was drained from Hermione's face.
"Here was me thinking you were the smart one Hermione! Then again, Mother was always rather secretive.. But you know who she is now, don't you?"
She began giggling hysterically, swishing her wand. Fire sparks began to erupt from the ends of her wand, causing embers to float onto the carpet.
"Bellatrix." Hermione muttered, so quietly and softly her mouth barely moved.
"Oh sorry, still can't control this wand! How rude of me, I haven't properly introduced myself. I'm Ivy. Ivy Lestrange."--
Sorry for the very short chapter! I felt this chapter ended well as it is, but not to worry because I'm already writing the next part!
