The night it began

It was a dark night with the occasional hoot of an owl in the distance.

Bellatrix Lestrange, a witch with curly black hair and pale skin tapped her nephew Draco with her forefinger impatiently and she watched him sleep soundly in his elegant black ornate crib.

Bellatrix was muttering under her breath "tonight's the night the dark lord will murder the boy from the prophecy"

she glanced out the window at the bright moon. Then, she shouted "tonight's the night!" After a long giggle she shouted "lumos" and walked briskly out the door.

Early early the next morning, a disheveled Lucious Malloy stormed into Malloy Manor and shouted "dining room everyone!" After everyone was seated and looking down at their laps he began,

"Now as you all have seen the dark lords powers are no longer among us we-"

"No!!" Bellatrix shrieked "don't you see it's a trap! The dark lord wants to see who among us is loyal!"
"Fine" he said smoothly "then go, all you in favour leave!". A small group of death eaters rose and left the room cackling.

After the last of them left lucious turned to the remaining death eaters "My plan is to tell the ministry we were under the imperious curse and thus walk free, all in favour?"

Everyone erupted in cheers and gave evil smiles, all except Nacrissa Malloy.
