Master of Death

Chapter 7

When Hadrian reached his room he noticed his stuff has been checked. He just looked towards Blaise who nodded. Hadrian sighed and slept on his bed. Theo has big smile on face that the boy didn't even notice a thing. He will keep an eye on him to know why Blaise and Malfoy is not reacting to Hadrian's 'I'm boss here' attitude.

Next morning Hadrian just gave Draco V sign. Draco immediately understood the meaning.
Draco: "Isn't it too early to do that?"
Hadrian: "well I can't play hidden when dumb like this one (he looked towards sleeping Theo) keeps bothering me. Also I have seen people's reaction in common room yesterday. If I won't act now they will keep bothering me for rest of the term in. There are only first years in rooms right now as our classes starts from Monday, seniors are in their classes so there will be less arguments. Call meeting in common room. Let's get over with it"

Draco nodded. He left. Blaise was at hall. He told him that gather all first years in half hour and stand near door. Blaise understood and informed Daphne to get girls. After half hour everyone was in common room confused what's all this about. As everyone was there Hadrian nodded towards Draco. Draco started locking doors with shield. Daphne and Blaise saw this and started doing same. Once it was locked no one can come in or go out during meeting. No one from outside can hear or see what's going on.

Hadrian: "All first years I have called this meeting to claim my right as King. Those of you who supports decision stand behind me. Those who don't stay where you are."

As Draco, Blaise and Daphne went behind Hadrian. Pansy also joined them. Blaise told her about Hadrian. She confirmed same thing from Greengrass. She was not calculative like Greengrass, but she was more like younger version of Bellatrix. She doesn't back out from saying what she feels upfront, she doesn't think about consequences for her action/words but Loyal and insistent to one master see chooses. Before coming to Hogwarts her aim was Draco Malfoy as to gain malfoy fortune and be on top lair of hierarchy, but when he heard about Hadrian she got confuse. Now when he saw even his target was following Hadrian then there was no doubt. She will join Hadrian and reach top rank at any cost. Most others understood knowing how powerful these four are. If they are giving up then they can't stand a chance.

Only Theo, Carrow sisters, Crabbe and Goyle didn't move from there places. Goyle and Crabbe mostly because they didn't understand a thing.
Theo: "You lot are insult to Slytherins. Zabini, I believe you have history with him so I'll let you slide but you: Parkison, Malfoy, Greengrass. Your families are all famous, rich and genuine Slytherin. Yet you are willingly bending your knees to this freak."
Flora: "I will never accept half blood as King."

Before Hadrian can say, Pansy step forward: "My King I would like to be faithful general of your court. Allow me to prove my worth and teach lesson to this bitch by showing her place"
Everyone except Blaise looked confused at sudden statement form this sharp voice girl.
Hadrian thought for a moment: "And who are you miss"
Pansy: "I am Pansy Parkinson my lord"
Hadrian with raised brow as he wasn't expecting a follower with such strong will before power display: "very well let's see what you got"
Pansy: "I, Pansy Parkinson challenge you Flora Carrow for honorary duel. If I win you will accept Hadrian as Slytherin King."
Flora: "I, Flora Carrow accept your Challenge. If I win you will be my personal pet Parkinson"
Pansy nodded and duel started. Pansy defeated her in a minute. As Flora got defeated she along with her sister, Crabbe and Goyle stand behind Hadrian accepting submission.
Hadrian: "Thank you Miss Parkinson for your assistance, you have earned your place in higher rank of my court."
Pansy nodded and went back to her place.
Hadrian: "Now let's see Nott. If you got so much problem then why not step up and stake your claim"
Nott with raised brows: "Are you challenging me, Potter?"
Hadrian: "Of course I am. And when I am done with you, you will be begging me for mercy."
Nott with angry roar: "B..egg..ing... You are nothing but dust on Slytherin King's shoes."
Hadrian with neutral mask: "I see and just to know who will make me? You don't have guts to challenge me and there is no one standing on your side"
Nott laughed: "I am strong enough for you half blood garbage."
And then he made mistake of his life by spitting on Hadrian's face
"Yes that's what you are potter, boot licker, nothing more than freak"

As soon as Nott said those words, Hadrian's side team began to shiver with change of cold demeanor. They felt like death is walking among them and the torches off room shut. At the time torches light up again all were still feeling darkness. Hadrian was standing watching Theo like Hawk suddenly and Theo was screaming with blood coming out of his eyes.

Theo screamed: "My hands.. legs.. you filthy half blood bastard.. how dare you.."
He wanted to scream more but his jaw suddenly froze without voice.
Hadrain casually: "Very bad for a birdie to squeak when master wants silence.So shut up birdie.
With that Theo's tongue came out of his mouth and blood came out from his mouth from cut."
Everyone gasped seeing horror in front of their eyes.
Hadrian: "Kneel before you loose your half body organs permanently."
He looked at others with icy glare: "I bow to nobody. You bow to me, understood."
Everyone nodded without a word or wasting second.
The dying boy whimpered: "Please .. no more.. I am sorry"
Hadrian rolled back his powers and everyone breathed in relief.
Hadrian with cold voice: "I know you are, Theo. I didn't want to claim anything in first morning of Hogwarts. But you were so persistent that you ignored my warning, then you laughed thinking I am some stupid child and you dare to insult me. You made me do this. Blood or Status or Light or Dark doesn't matter, what matters is power. So tell me my pet: Who has Power?"
Theo: "You"
Hadrian chuckled: "Good boy. Now where is your place?"
Theo: "Below you"
Hadrain lifted his hand in threatening manner: "That wasn't your words about me,little puppy.. so again where is your place?"
Theo literally crawled towards Hadrian and lay there: "At your.. f-f-feet. As licking your boots."
Hadrian smirked: "Now that's good boy. Why don't you prove it? Lick off the dust."
There were mix of gasps and laughs as Theo licked Hadrian's boots with his tongue.
Hadrian while petting his new puppy: "Well done, I assure you will be given chance to prove your worth and loyalty when time comes. Now all this has tired me, anyone got a seat"
Darco gave Hadrian chair: "You are Slytherin King now, Hadrian. You command, we shall obey, just as I promise the first time we met."
Blaise whispered: "When was that?"
Seeing Hadrian nod Draco answered: "It was when we met second time at my house."

After that incident Theo moved out of their room as he realized he is not worthy to be in King's room. Information spread across slytherins (like fire) who ruled and not to cross Hadrian in snake's pit. When they'd walked around school it had been Hadrian who led them and if any one spoke out of their turn or with disrespect it has to answer cold emerald green eyes. Pansy Parkinson proved worthy soldier as she has outspoken about her King's power and didn't back down in punishing anyone who dare to say wrong word about king even behind his back. In common room when everyone is studying or playing, they maintain good distance from King to let him enjoy his own private space with nott as his personal footrest.

Even higher years seemed to acknowledge Hadrian's power. They noticed Hadrian is not just ordering, he is also shaping and helping first years with rules and fear. Not a single first year Slytherin is loosing any point and Hadrian keeps on adding point to their house by his knowledge and wit. They talked with first years, even checked their memories but never figured what powers Hadrian has so they decided just to observe for time being. With no objection from influential students it didn't take long that whole Slytherin house considered Hadrian Slytherin King. It became clear within few weeks to not only students but to staff as well that who rule Snake's pit. Amara has also settled in Forbidden forest. She safely made a nest. He asked her to keep an eye on everything in forest and also learn as much as possible from other magical creatures she can communicate. Information and ally might be helpful in future. Hadrian meet her time to time on border of Forbidden forest so their fresh connection remain strong. Hadrian also take rabbits and mice with him whenever he goes to meet her in case she didn't find food in forest for any reason. She also likes her master dearly.
