And like a fish on a hook, he had been pulled after the Stone with the help of Quirrell, even when he knew that the chances of the Stone being fake were too high. At least he met that ruthless boy. 

That was a silver lining. 

Maybe that boy could become his new asset in the outside world. Or maybe he would need to be killed if he decides to keep opposing him. There was also the prophecy about them which complicated the matters.

'But what if that was the intention of Chaos? Does he want me to meet his counterpart again? This child Harry Potter? Was this Chaos' plan all along? Does he want me and him to fight? 

Was the future set in stone? Was I walking down a fixed path? Were all my actions and decisions I had taken in life even my own?'

He immediately dropped that line of thought. Those were some dangerous things to think about. He would continue on his own path without questioning the freedom of his own mind ever again.

Ignorance is bliss and he wanted that bliss to keep on existing. Ultimately, what was even the meaning of this life if he couldn't trust his own mind, his own self?

He had to believe in individual freedom. He had to. There was no other choice.

Chaos could go fuck himself. He could control the entire world. But not his mind. Never his mind.

He was lord Voldemort. And nothing could change that. He would find a way and show Chaos why making him an enemy was his biggest mistake.

He selected a male body and levitated it behind him and walked to the ritual room.

Lily tilted her head to the side and a blue jet of light tore through the air where her head was earlier. Then she slid away, missing another spell and snapping her own wand at her sparring partner.

Alice ducked under the stunning spell and flicked her wand up. A stony hand rose from underneath Lily, its claw-like fingers trying to capture her. The redhead simply used the upward momentum to jump up, effortlessly escaping the claws. 

Even mid-air she didn't waste a single fraction of second and trained her wand at Alice. The stony protrusion beneath her morphed into two wolves and ran towards Alice.

Lily's red knee-length skirt flared up as she landed back on her feet, on the levelled ground. By then, Alice had already taken care of the distractions. The wolves lay still around her with rocky stalagmites piercing through them.

They both shared a smirk and whipped their wands at the same time. Two rays of light collided between them in a blinding flash of red, promptly cancelling each other out.

Her neck-hair stood on their ends and Alice instinctively dodged another spell by jumping to the side. But the momentary disturbance was enough for Lily to mutter her signature spell.

Alice's eyes widened in horror as an all encompassing menacing aura erupted around Lily.

Lily's beautiful emerald eyes were now poison green while her silky red hair turned into jumbles of crimson slimy snakes with obsidian eyes. 

The slithering reptiles glared at Alice hatefully, hissing and writhing on Lily's head. Lily's once white skin was now a hideous shade of pale blue, giving her a sickly appearance. 

She also had a pair of ugly black leathery wings sprouting from her back.

Lily looked as if she was some unhinge evil creature who had crawled out from the deepest depths of hell. There was this presence around her which made it hard for Alice to even keep on standing, to even breathe in the same air as her. There was just so much bloodlust that it made her suffocate.

This was the acclaimed Crimson Witch. The one who was feared by many.

Even knowing that this was just an illusion, that her friend was still only a human underneath this veil of demoness, didn't stop Alice's fear from consuming her. She couldn't slow down her fast-beating heart or stop herself from falling down on her knees. 

She shuddered when the demoness looked at her with those narrowed gleaming eyes and the sharp-fanged grin.

Lily raised her wand and shot the basic disarming spell. Alice fell back on her butt and her wand soared towards Lily who snatched it out of the air.

"I win." Lily giggled. Usually, her laughter was soft and soothing, but right now it came out as a sinister maniacal cackle.

Alice quivered in disgust and terror.

"Drop it, Lily. You are scaring me." Alice groaned, trembling all over and keeping her face away from her demoness friend.

"Fine. Be a spoilsport." Lily mumbled childishly in her normal voice. Her appearance was now back to normal. She walked up to Alice and helped her to her feet.

"Even after all these years, it still blows away my mind how a simple illusion can massively help in handicapping opponents." Alice said with a relieved sigh as she was freed from the malicious atmosphere.

Lily shrugged. "Yes. But my spell isn't exactly a normal one, is it?"

"Definitely not a normal one." Alice mumbled, twitching uncomfortably from the thought of the illusion.

Lily's 'Purgatory Domain' was her own created spell. With the help of it she was able to appear as a demoness. While a mere illusion might sound too easy to fight against, it was totally different in reality. Lily's illusion was truly a masterpiece.

The speciality about it was that it couldn't be countered or shielded against. It was like an Unforgivable in a sense that it could only be avoided. If a person stood within a certain range from her then Lily's illusion would always work, no matter what. And it wasn't just an optical illusion, the Purgatory Domain used every sense available to establish itself as real in the opponent's mind and spark unrestrained fear in the victim's heart.
