The Weight of Vengeance

"No! Please don't! Don't do this!" He begged, his eyes pleading as his he tore his eyes away from his wife and son, both of whom were on their knees with their hands tied behind their backs and their mouths gagged. "Please...please don't!" He cried, tears pouring out of his eyes. His wrists were chained to the wall behind him, and he was without a wand and the only piece of clothing he had was his underwear. His family weren't better as his son looked to be in the exact physical condition as him, and the bruises on his wife's face were not easy to miss.

"Are you willing to give your life up for them?" Grim asked, looking down on the battered and beaten form of Lucius Malfoy. Narcissa and Draco were on their knees in front of him, both positioned to be looking at the Malfoy patriarch. The man who formerly used to wear the best of clothes and always stood proud with his hair descending to his shoulders. Now the only clothes he had was the underwear he had spent the last two days in, his hair was shaven off and his face was heavily bruised.

Narcissa Malfoy on the other hand was wearing a large pillow case, much like the ones that the house elves would wear, it was a choice between the pillow case or being naked. Draco was much like his father except that he still had some hair remaining, but even that was a small amount in the middle of his head.

"Now...now please...there is no need for this..." Lucius coughed, his body shaking from the cold and the torture that he had received mere moments before.

"No...need for this?" Grim echoed, disbelief managed to show itself even through his magically altered voice. "No...need for this?" Grim said a second time, his voice rising in volume. "There is every need for this!" Grim snapped as he shot a cruciatus curse at Lucius, Lucius cried out in pain while the other two Malfoy's cried out for him even though the gags prevented them from making much noise. Eventually Grim stopped and Lucius was left shaking on the floor. "Look at me," Grim said at a regular volume even though the anger was still present in his voice. "look at me!" Grim commanded and Lucius forced himself to look at the man out of fear of more pain. "Do you know what you have all done to me?" Grim asked, his voice barely above a whisper.

"I...I don't even know who you are..." Lucius gasped out before he coughed heavily, blood spitting out of his mouth.

"Yes," Grim said as he lowered his hood with his free hand to reveal his face, "you do."

"P...Potter?!" Lucius blurted out in shock upon seeing the raven haired man with blazing emerald eyes. Narcissa tried to move her head to look at him only to receive a stinging hex to the cheek, which was better than the punch that Draco got when he tried the same thing.

"Me," Harry said with the smallest of nods. "I've lost count of all the things your family has done."

"P...Potter...I..."

"She," Harry interrupted as he roughly grabbed Narcissa by the hair, causing to woman to gasp out in pain "tricked her sister...made Andromeda believe that she had changed! And then stabbed her in the back before handing her over to Bellatrix and if that wasn't enough then there is the fact that she took part in the death of her own niece and her niece's son! She helped you with all your schemes as well!"

"P...Potter, she was acting on orders of..."

"And then we have little Draco," Harry let out a humorless laugh as he released her and moved over to Draco and grabbed him by his hair. "stupid little Draco. Would never leave me alone, because this attention seeking little brat would throw a tantrum if he didn't get his way, every single time. Of course it's not entirely his fault that his parents can't parent for shit. And if I remember correctly then Draco was the one who killed Teddy."

"He...was just following orders...please show mercy and..."

"Mercy?! He killed my godson! And you dare ask me for mercy?!" Harry roared as he looked at each Malfoy with pure hate. "I have very few things in life that I care about, but it is clear that you and your master won't rest until you've taken them from me, guess I am just going to have to kill you all before that happens."

"No! Please don't!" Lucius cried. "If...if you need money I can give you money! All of the money in my vault! Please Potter!"

"Shut your mouth Malfoy," Harry said in an almost bored tone. "here is what's going to happen, when my godson died you and your master gave me a choice. I'm giving you a choice, you ever heard of the game 'kiss, marry, kill'? In that game you are given three people and you have to choose which you would kiss, marry or kill. Now I have no desire to marry or kiss any of you fuckers so we'll get rid of those but let's keep 'kill', I'm going to play a simpler version of the game called 'kill or enslave'. I'm still working on the name, but the game is quite fun."

"W...what?!"

"The goblins aren't happy with you," Harry said with a wicked smirk. "they aren't exactly pleased with the fact that you're master killed one of your own, not even a regular goblin, the goblin he killed happened to be related to the current King of Goblins. Any death eaters they find they will either execute or enslave them, I'm sure they would see the fun in making a pampered princess..." Harry gestured to Narcissa, "or a spoilt brat..." Harry now gestured to Draco. "...work in their mines. So now Lucius, you have a choice." Harry raised his wand.

"No Potter...please...I..."

"I kill your son and enslave your wife to the goblins," Harry said as he pointed the wand behind Draco's head, Harry paused before he pointed the wand behind Narcissa's head. "or I kill your wife and enslave your son. Which do you prefer?"

"You...you can't make me choose!" Lucius shouted.

"If you don't choose then there is a third option," Harry grinned. "me torturing them to death in front of you, how long do you think it will take your brat to have his mind broken from over exposure to the cruciatus curse? Think he will last longer than his mother? Of course once they are broken I will have no need for them and will just get rid of the bodies." Harry added the last part almost as an after thought. "Choose." Harry said as his wand kept moving from Draco's head to Narcissa's then back to Draco's. "Choose." Harry repeated when Lucius didn't answer. "I said choose." Harry said as the tip of his wand began glowing.

"Potter...please!" Lucius begged. "You don't have to do this!"

"The same way you didn't have to go after my friends and family." Harry said in a deceptively calm voice, his wand still moving between Narcissa and Draco. "Choose."

"Potter please!"

"Choose."

"I can pay you!"

"Choose."

"All the money in my vault! All of my possessions!"

"Goblin," Harry called, a few seconds later a goblin walked into the room, he walked past everyone and towards Lucius. He placed a quill in Lucius's hand before holding out a document for him to sign. "you might want to get to signing that." Harry 'suggested', Lucius gulped before signing the document, he hissed as the quill was a blood quill and was writing with his own blood. Once it was signed the goblin held out several more documents which Lucius had to sign, once it was done the goblin smirked at Lucius before he walked away, nodding at Harry as he did so. "Now that that part is done, we can continue right where we left off. Choose."

"But...but I signed! I gave you all my money!" Lucius protested. "Everything I had! That was the deal"

"I didn't make a deal, now choose." Harry replied.

"I...what will it take?!"

"Choose."

"Please...I..."

"Begging didn't work for my mother or any of my family or any of the families that you are responsible for killing, now choose."

"I..."

"CHOOSE!" Harry shouted, magic amplifying his voice. Lucius was silent for several moments, his eyes glancing between Narcissa and Draco.

"P...please...sp...spare my son!" Lucius said eventually, looking far more pained than ever before. Lucius and Draco jumped a second later when Narcissa fell to the ground after a flash of green light. Draco cried out, even though he was gagged.

"Hey Draco," Harry grabbed him to stop him from moving towards his mother, Harry kneeled down and looked him in the eye. "you always found it funny that I was an orphan, you laughed when you killed my godson, tell me...is it still funny?" Harry asked, Draco didn't reply. Tears dripped down his eyes as his grey eyes were locked onto his mother's lifeless body. "Guess not." Harry said before standing up. "Order up." Harry called, a few seconds later a couple of goblins came out and grabbed Draco by the arms before dragging him out.

"P...Potter...I..."

"Oh Lucius, I would save your breath if I was you." Harry suggested as he pulled his hood up. "We're not done yet." Grim said as his wand tip began glowing.

Harry's eyes snapped open as he snapped to a sitting position, he looked around and saw that he was still in his apartment, lying on the floor next to his bed. His eyes shifted from green back to grey, Harry let out a few deep breaths before he shook his head to clear his thoughts. Harry felt himself get nudged and saw Padfoot standing next to him.

"I'm fine boy," Harry sighed as he patted Padfoot, Padfoot didn't totally believe him so rested his chin on Harry's shoulder. Harry took the hint and wrapped his arms around Padfoot, giving him a small hug. "I'm fine." Harry said once more before he stood up and walked to the bathroom.
