The Unbreakable Vow (Harry Potter Story: Of Love and Vanquish) Part 2

Tonks and Molly sat on the swaying grass, trying to comfort Sapphire. She had just lost her husband, Santheri. He had been part of the Order for many years, almost as long as its original members. Sapphire was named after her electric blue eyes and love of the ocean. She had abilities with water that made many people of the Order curious, intrigued. Now, she had nothing. Albus walked over to the lifeless form of Santheri and knelt down to him. He placed his right hand lightly on his chest. No heartbeat. He leaned over, just an inch away from his mouth. No breathing. "He is dead," confirmed Dumbledore. "But the question is how did he get to be." Bellatrix and Greyback had escaped. They were no where in sight. Albus trotted over to Sapphire, her eyes still spilling like a waterfall. "My dear Miss Sedly. I am so sympathetic and touched by your loss. But may I-" Sapphire held her hand up, Albus in mid-sentence. "Just do it." Albus nodded in understanding. Holding his wand outward, he approached the body of Sapphire's husband. Gently, he touched his temple with it. A white, solid-liquid substance floated from his head. Dumbledore placed it in a single vial that he had withdrew from his robes pocket. "Arthur, do you still have it?" "Yes, sir," Arthur Weasley exclaimed, ignited. Albus limped. His legs were flowing with blood. "Umm..sir," Harry whimpered, gesturing towards his leg. "Ah. A minor scratch, Not to worry, boy." Climbing the carpeted steps, Albus continued to ascend. He grasped the door knob. Locked. "Allow me, professor," Hermione whispered. "Alohomora." The door opened with a click. "Thank-you, Hermione, dear." Dumbledore carefully wiped a ledge that sat nearby. Dust particles were all over Dumbledore's hands. He lifted a large shelf open. Inside, blueish-grey liquids floated. But it was not liquid, it was just some...phenomenom. He poured the vial into it. "On three everyone." "One. Two Three!" Everyone dived into this new world. They were back at the yard. But, not really. It was on the other side of the house. Harry perked up and heard an "AHHHHooooooooo" from the distance. Lupin in his werewolf form was seen scampering by. A young mam emerged from the back door. He carried a bright red wand. It was glowing. He was grasping Sapphire's hand. She tip-toed to kiss him on the lips. Once she did, he looked blank. Unchanged. The stars seemed to freeze in that one moment of time. Harry's scar burned as he watched the memory. The man's eyes grew wide. "GO SAPPHY. GO." he insisted, shaking the terrified woman. "GO! GET HELP! STAY SAFE!" Sapphire would not budge. He had no choice. He forced Sapphire into the tall grasses, and put a charm on her. She had been briefly knocked out. "Well, well, well....what do we have here?" A raspy voice boomed through the darkness. "My Lord...." "Santheri. Why do I get the pleasure?" Santheri sat, trembling on the dirty ground. "You betrayed me, Santheri." The man sat still, praying to himself. "You took my mark and you still fought for him." Voldemort yanked up the sleeve of Santheri's arm. "YOU DONT DESERVE THIS." Taking the knife in his pocket, Voldemort scraped the snake off of his arm. Santheri screamed. "YOU WILL NOT BE SPARED." The voice echoed from the abyss. Bellatrix and Greyback appeared. They both were smiling menacingly. "AVADA KEDAVRA!!!!" Santheri screamed. He was thrown aside and flipped into the air. His eyes became wide and vacant. In his hand, a note stumbled out. Sapphire screamed. And the memory ended. The Order exitted the memory. Sapphire, cried upon seeing her tortured husband's lifeless form. "The note," Severus breathed, He ran from the room. "SEVERUS THE SAME MAY HAPPEN TO YOU....." Molly called. He paid her no mind. Severus picked up the note. In it was an engraved message. "Forget the lies. The weapon lies in our own dimensions. The weak deceased, The strong released inside of suffering heartbeat." (TO BE CONTINUED)
