inheritance of the Wolf Prince

Ch. 24 Sacrificing Vermin

Dominick and the twins walked into the ministry on the pretence of "talking" to the Undersecretary of the minister for magic. They had made an appointment to talk about "dangerous creatures running about" with good folk. When they got to her office they saw a golden knocker which was embellished with the face of a cat. Dominick rolled his eyes and grabbed the knocker, which promptly hissed at him, and knocked it twice. From inside they heard high voice say come in.

"Ahh Mr. Malfoy, Come in. I have been eagerly waiting to meet you. I understand that you wanted to speak with me?" Umbridge says with sickening sweet smile and a simpering voice that Dominick was sure that she used on the minister; however he did not show his disgust on his face as he and the twins entered her office. Dominick hated denying his fathers' line by being called a Malfoy. He was a Greyback and should be called one, but he needed to stay hidden.

"Madam Umbridge, I am here with my companions to ask you about your ideas on Werewolves, Vampires, and other magical creatures. I am trying to learn about this society since I have not been living in this country long. My Mother passed when I was a child and my father just passed so I came to live with my Uncle, Lucius Malfoy, and he suggested I should talk to yourself and the minister to understand the politics in this country. "Dominick said laying the hesitation and apprehension thick in his voice and the want for new information into his eyes. He could tell that her ego was stroked by the implied flattery that came with the fact that Lucius Malfoy referred his nephew to her for information.

"Well...It was a good thing you came to me. First off werewolves and all other magical creatures are dangerous and should be locked up or killed. We normal folk should not have to deal with living with an abomination of nature around us, tainting us with their freakishness." She said disgust coloring her tone and hate in her eyes. Dominick had to hold himself back and control his anger to not kill her till they got to the department.

"I think I understand. Do you think you could show me the different parts of the ministry? I am most curious about the Department of Law Enforcement and Department of Mysteries. I promise I won't touch anything or tell anyone. I want to be an unspeakable. If you show me this then when I become an Unspeakable then you would have someone in that department." Dominick said imploringly at her with the puppy dog eyes that made his dad do whatever he wanted. He almost cackled at Umbridge when his manipulation paid off.

"Of course I will show you, Mr. Malfoy. I look forward to you working at the ministry." As Umbridge said this she got up and came around her pink desk to grab her pink coat off the rack ignoring the two weasleys that had come with him. Dominick hated this office. It was just too much pink. The cat pictures she had on her wall did not help at all. His instincts were telling him to let out a growl to shut them up. When they left the office Umbridge locked it and they were off to the Department of Law Enforcement. As they walked around the place Dominick stared in fake wonder and asked the questions that a person that had not been here before would ask. Then they made their way to the Department of Mysteries. To say that they were not impressed would be a lie. From their visit last time the department was a mess but now it looks like nothing happened. As they walked Umbridge told them what little she knew about the department. Once they reached the vale Umbridge turned to Dominick and the Weasleys and with a grand gesture said "And this is the Vale of Death. The Ministry used to put criminals through there. It is believed that anyone who is not guilty can be pulled back out, but that is absolute rubbish."

"Well let's find out. Shall we?" Dominick said with a gesture motioned his devils to grab the toad. The Twins grabbed her and started dragging her towards the Vale. Dominick cackled at the screams of Umbridge telling them to unhand her as she was the Undersecretary to the Minister and that they would go to Azkaban for this. The Twins knocked Umbridge out and hit her with an Incarcerous spell. While she was knocked out they drew a ritual circle and got out the ingredients. As they set up they sent a silent prayer to Hecate that that this would work. The twins woke Umbridge as she had to be awake for the ritual.

"I, Dominick Hadrian Greyback, am here to petition the vale for a soul. So mote it be." Dominick said slicing his palm with the ritual knife, with this Dominick started the circle. Umbridge gasped at his name and started to call him a filthy creature and an abomination so he cast a silencing charm at her.

"Ye Lords of the Watchtowers of the East, ye Lords of Air; I do summon call and stir you up, to witness our rites and to guard the Circle."

As he said this he lit a yellow candle and turned to the right.

"Ye Lords of the Watchtowers of the South, ye Lords of Fire; I do summon call and stir you up, to witness our rites and to guard the Circle."

As he said this he lit a red candle and turned to the right.

"Ye Lords of the Watchtowers of the West, ye Lords of Water; I do summon call and stir you up, to witness our rites and to guard the Circle."

As he said this he lit a blue candle and turned to the right.

"Ye Lords of the Watchtowers of the North, ye Lords of Earth; I do summon call and stir you up, to witness our rites and to guard the Circle."

Finally As he said this he lit a green candle closing the magic circle. He felt a surge in his core and took this as a sign that this was blessed. He then began the rite to hopefully free his godfather.

"Custodes in valle Terebinthi

Habitum a nocentibus animarum

Concede nos famulos tuos

Animum redder

Custodes in valle Terebinthi

Custodes Iustitiae

Dignatus es

Remittat nobis

Custodes in valle Terebinthi

Ad quam illarumque Incolas

Petimus auxilium tuum

Nam de reditu soulmate

Custodes in valle Terebinthi

Mortui autem

Oramus Da nobis, ex anima innocentes Sirius Black

In commutationem pro anima reus ex Delores Umbridge"

After he finished magic exploded from him knocking a still charmed screaming Delores Umbridge into the vale. For a moment all was silent then a body fell out of the vale. Dominick wanted to rush to the side of his God father but he knew that if he did magic would punish him. He then thanked the Guardians of the Vale for the acceptance and deliverance of his Godfather. He then started to close his circle.

"Ye Lords of the Watchtowers of the North, ye Lords of Earth; I thank you for attending my rite; and ere you depart to your fair and lovely realms, I bid thee Hail and Farewell."

As he said this he blew out the green candle.

"Ye Lords of the Watchtowers of the West, ye Lords of Water; I thank you for attending my rite; and ere you depart to your fair and lovely realms, I bid thee Hail and Farewell."

As he said this he blew out the blue candle.

"Ye Lords of the Watchtowers of the South, ye Lords of Fire; I thank you for attending my rite; and ere you depart to your fair and lovely realms, I bid thee Hail and Farewell."

As he said this he blew out the red candle.

"Ye Lords of the Watchtowers of the East, ye Lords of Air; I thank you for attending my rite; and ere you depart to your fair and lovely realms, I bid thee Hail and Farewell."

As he said this he blew out the yellow candle. With the circle being finished he rushed to his Godfather who was struggling to get up off the ground.

"Sirius are you okay?" Dominick got down on his knees helping the man. Sirius looked at him and Dominick saw recignission cross his features.

"Harry? So you finally know. Good. Where is Remus?" Sirius said looking around for his mate.
