4 A dreadful night

Soon another 2 months rolled by, and on a disturbingly quiet night, I felt incredibly uneasy. I couldn't explain it at all, but my answer soon came when the sound of explosions and fire began to engulf our house.

I was startled awake and so were my parents as they saw the fire surrounding us from the windows. Lance quickly got up and went to see what was happening. Shadows were seen flickering through the fire as they burst through the windows. Lance was seen outside fighting a wizard with a cloak that was sending out green beams of light. The others walked towards us. Mum grabbed onto the blanket that covered me and looked to make sure that I was ok before lifting me up and attempting to run. She didn't get far before she was surrounded from all sides. One of the cloaked figures was about to chant something when a little figure smashed into him from the side making the man tumble down.

my mother was aghast as she saw the figure. "THEOOOO" she shouted as she looked at the man who by now had gotten up and kicked Theo in the stomach. "tch, little brat you couldn't just wait and die silently you just had to interfere huh?" he hissed in annoyance.

He pointed at Theo and cast his spell. "Avada Kedavra". I saw it clearly with my own small eyes. Theo was directly hit and slumped to the ground, before he died I saw him turn his head towards me one last time with his classic dumb smile etched on his face as if to comfort me one last time before his eyes lost their light.

my mother screamed at the top of her lungs as she crumbled to the floor still holding me in her arms while staring at the lifeless body of Theo as she cried with heart-wrenching screams. I couldn't quite believe what was happening.

why why why why why why Why WHy WHY WHYYYYYYYYYY. I yelled in my head as streams of tears rolled down my face. Why was I always on the receiving end of fates slaps? why do I never get to experience the love of a family for more than an instant before it disappears? My brother, MY BROTHER, gave his life for me, he protected me AGAIN, and all he got was death.

I started to cry harder, I really couldn't hold it in, I really couldn't, my heart lost a chunk of itself this night. Did I expect it to be over, HA! fate decided to slap me again when the same man used crucio on my mother right in front of me.

Unable to hold on, she dropped me on the floor suddenly from the pain. "you filthy Pendragon scum, we have been looking for you for hundreds of years and finally, after hunting you all down we have killed you all. you are the last three remaining." he said sadistically as I saw my mother writhing in pain.

She looked into my eyes and smiled at me with difficulty as I saw that loving gaze once again. The same loving gaze I saw when I first appeared in this world. The same loving gaze that allowed me to feel loved, that comforted me, telling me that everything was going to be ok, was now being erased.

The man got bored after seeing that my mother stop screaming. he simply sent another Avada her way. I saw the unwavering loving gaze in my mother's eyes as she slowly lost signs of life. "I'm sorry my child, maybe I should not have brought you into such a terrible world, please, live on," she said before dying. By now I was distraught and broken. I haven't even been with my only family in this world for more than a moment and they are already being taken away from me. WHY MUST I GO THROUGH THIS? I curse the heaven's, Hell, Fucking God himself. I couldn't do anything but cry out, the men stared at me. The man who killed both my brother and mother walked over and kicked my mother's dead body out of the way before walking towards me. I couldn't see who he was but I saw a tattoo on his left arm. A skull with a serpent. I know who they are, VOLDEMORT YOU FUCKING SCUM!!!! I yelled out in my head. But before I could think further, I heard the voice of another man under the hood. " we have a deal, the ministry will overlook this, but you must not involve us with any more attacks later on." he said warningly.

"Relax, the dark lord will keep his word. The link between the ministry and the dark lord will not be known to anyone. You have provided us with the location of the Pendragon family, we will keep our end of the deal," he said dismissively. I was shocked, The ministry was in on this as well? Why would they do this? is it due to hatred? due to fame? no, it can't be fame, nobody knows about our family since ages ago. what could it be? I asked myself before I saw the man walk over and point his wand at me. "sorry little guy but trash like you needs to be eradicated."

I will remember those words and write them on the graves of all those who have wronged me on this night. But before the man was able to chant Avada, the roof of the house was blown off and the massive head of a dragon was seen looking inside. I was suddenly levitating towards the dragon before landing on its head. Lance in dragon form, looked at the dead bodies of his wife and elder son and cried. His tears slid down the side of the dragon's face as he took one last look before scorching the house killing everyone before taking flight.

[I'm sorry kid, I really am, I didn't know this would happen so soon, I thought we had more time.] Drak said remorsefully. He didn't get a response. I was completely filled with hatred, thoughts and remaking my plans.
