Chapter 22
The noose tightens



Hermione turned back the blankets, now in half-sleep.
The room was darkened, and he thought for a moment that you are still at the Academy. But then he saw the four-poster bed, around her, protective and elegant with its old mahogany columns and curtains ... caressing her legs, and across the arm of Harry, lying softly to the edge of mattress.
She found herself blushing. It was beautiful, beautiful beyond imagination, beyond description. The tenderness, the fear with which almost asked her if he were convinced. But above all the sweetness with which they were discovered, were loved by you ... Not had fallen into vulgarity, even when it was turned into a passion.
It was something natural, gradual ... as if all the yesterdays of their lives - those beautiful and terrible ones - to get to what had existed, and ensure that they appreciate it even more.
with emotion, but also with some anxiety, he wondered as he saw him. What happens now, cradled in his mind from sleep? I wonder if he had the courage to ask him, once raised? What would change in their relationship?
Hermione set out for the bathroom and closed the door. Resisted the instinct to open it again to check that everything was successful, that Harry slept in that bed.
On the shelf of the sink, Harry had left his watch. They had just six in the morning. He rinsed his face and grabs the towel, soaking my cheeks still purple from the memory.
was so happy, so convinced that nothing bad could ever happen, who shook his head when the voice hissed in her mind. "The memory crawl between his thoughts, his life, freed from the death of one of us like a snake out of the bond broken egg. And the memory will go forward, with nothing that might slow down, taking with them the events predicted in that building ... millennia ago. Nothing more can stop this process, which will lead to their revival. "
Le mani tremanti di Hermione si lasciarono sfuggire la salvietta, le sue gambe persero ogni capacità di reggerla, tradendola prima che potesse appoggiarsi a qualsiasi mobile.
Mentre perdeva conoscenza, Hermione vide un’immagine nella superficie dello specchio. Una figura incappucciata le porgeva un collare di ferro. I suoi occhi rossi, ancora prima della voce, le ordinavano di indossarlo. Un istante prima di svenire, nella sua mente, quell’essere si avvicinava, e il cappuccio che lo celava cadeva indietro.
Aveva creduto si trattasse di Voldemort, ma ora Hermione vedeva chiaramente la saetta sulla fronte, e il taglio degli occhi, e la forma del sorriso. Non era Voldemort, a ordinarle di indossare quel collare, ma il suo Harry.

Lord Voldemort was waiting.
beginning was not willing to believe it. At first it was almost hurt to find that Black and Snape - precisely their shadows - had dared to try to deceive him. He had been to give them the power to swallow the two prisoners, but the two had brought in another dimension, in the very near future to the room of the Veil, yet far enough to allow him to communicate with them and reassure them.
Furious, he gave away at the entrance of their apartments.
"Nagini ... you're right, you know? Should I go over this anger. What matters is that Lucius Malfoy has discovered them. And above all, Macnair me that now he and the two girls are leading. Here, no longer be able to reach Shadow traitor, until I get it completely enslaved. "The snake
loosened their coils and crawled to his little palace staff.
"I'm regretting that it granted to the possession of Lucius Weasley. I am truly repentant. But I can not fail in my word, I'll be content Granger. Here they come ... "
" What are we to make of Jordan? "Macnair said, holding close the little Weasley.
"Bring it here in my apartment. But not now, later ... "
smiled at the sight of the corner eye that Hermione Granger paled.
"Leave at least she did know ..."
Not the one hand, the whole arm of Voldemort's jaw hit them with violence, and because of the impact Hermione felt a broken tooth in my mouth, drowning in a stream of blood taste metal.
coughed and spat, being careful not to let him in Riddle, not to irritate him further. There was the risk rifacesse on Ginny, or worse on Rebecca.
"Hold tight" felt sort of cold voice at a time of Malfoy, who already locked his arms behind his back.
wrists were tied, but Hermione had long ago exhausted the strength to oppose and that command of the Death Eaters fingers sank deeper into his flesh.
stiffened, expecting a kick in the stomach, but what Voldemort had in mind was quite different.
hand thin and white - almost flaky, just like that of a reptile - the eyes moved a strand of sweaty hair, then went to brush her neck lasciviously. Arrived there, pulled a single gesture dry the shirt, which until now had saved Harry's horror understand how Malfoy had already delighted about her.
Beneath that rough and dirty shirt, Hermione had nothing. Now
remained naked except for underwear.
"This is the currency most appropriate to your new condition. "The humiliation burned
right now the walls of the stomach, and she had to pray to be able to hide it.
Voldemort nodded at Malfoy, and Hermione was pushed to the ground, forced to stay prone on the dusty floor.
After a few moments, but Ginny was made to put in the same position. Before Malfoy turned his face from the opposite side, Hermione caught a glimpse of Macnair discovered that roughly Ginny's shoulder, then sitting on his back to lock it all down, as Lucius had done with her.
What did they do? What was happening?
He tried to see better, to escape the hand of Malfoy she wanted her head on the cold stone.
Voldemort had passed behind them, and now stood between her and Ginny, leaning on one knee.
Nothing, not even the most accurate description, could never prepare for the pain that gripped Hermione, when Voldemort's hand rested on his shoulder, bearing a symbol of fire as if it were boiling.
Hermione yelled struggling, but his legs stretched out behind the Death Eaters that forced her to the ground, they could move.
The Dark Lord insisted on keeping his palms on his shoulders and Ginny. Both laughed
Eaters of their cry and their tears.
"This snake will mark as my property. Will make you feel close even when Miss Weasley will be at Malfoy Manor. "Voldemort got to his feet and ordered to kneel Hermione.
free to move, although still behind Malfoy, she began to obey.
"Now bow down to your boss and apologize for daring to mention Dumbledore in this place. "
Hermione was on all fours, his arms trembling now no longer supported it, the shoulder that seemed to have been punched, rather than marked by glowing embers.
He looked up and decided that no, he apologized for his trust in Dumbledore. If he did, if he had betrayed in this way, if you would be forgiven.
"Now, Granger. "
Hermione shook her head, though numb, unable to refuse to words.
was then that the pain that tore for the first time, spreading out from the shoulder to the rest of the body, like a big claw themselves tearing skin and flesh. But the worst thing was not even that, but rather the desperate cries that accompanied her. The screams of Ginny, who's eyes widened in surprise and pain of that knowledge to share with her.
"Now you understand the importance of learning to obey, half-breeds? "Hermione
heard it only in part. His body was still shaken by convulsions, lying on the ground under those waves of pain that struck him. The more she tried to get back on its feet, the more they increased.
"I told you you have to do, if you want the pain to end. For you and Weasley. "
" No, Herm ... "
The pain began again. Even
Ginny had been punished. For trying to talk to her, just for trying to ...
"I can stay here indefinitely, Granger. Educate yourself to your new life is my priority. The pain may still grow, you know? Do not believe me? "
Hermione was able to rise again on all fours.
"On your knees, and speaks loud and clear. "She
standing on his knees. "I ... I sorry, "he muttered, clenching his teeth to the humiliation.
But this was not enough to Voldemort.
Voldemort had just started to have fun.
"Now you know what will happen every time you go against one of my order. Lucius, you can do the Weasley what you want, except kill it. Can you take me even now. "
thanked Malfoy, Ginny weight lifted and turned towards the door, but Voldemort called him back. "Of course you will take me whenever I want to see it. "
" Yes, Master. "He bowed, then came out holding the shape of Ginny stomping and screaming.
Hermione felt rip the heart from his chest.
Ginny ... That coward had won his prize, his victory over the dirty Weasley.
Then another horrible thought prevailed in his mind: he was left alone with Voldemort.
red eyes stared at the magician.
"You've just started serving the insolence of which six have been able in the room of the Veil. You have mocked my authority in front of my soldiers and my other slaves. "It was a crazy
. A crazy fanatic, but terribly polished in his madness.
"I told you the name of Dumbledore in front of me decided it would have brought only sorrow. Now I'll keep my promise. Go against that wall "term, indicating the wall with one arm to the right of Hermione, where you could see a ring frame in stone, quite high.
the girl's hesitation cost him another taste of the pain brought by the mark. Distant, but still audible from the hallway, he heard Ginny's voice screaming along to their own. After moments of agony
absolute and blinding, Hermione went to see.
was back to earth, again a bundle that was shaking uncontrollably.
"On your feet now. "
Hermione decided to approach the wall on shaky legs, forcing us to move faster to prevent further discharge of that pain ... to save it to Ginny.
Voldemort looked at her, without another word he pointed to the wall again.
In a few moments, Hermione he found himself hanging from that hook, his face against the wall, arms outstretched and wrists shackled at that 'iron ring. Behind him, Macnair approached with a whip in his right hand.


"Let me go. "Madam Pomfrey
became the space between the professors and ended behind Harry.
holding a hand of his friend Ron, Hermione and Ginny watching speechless, neither of which had knowledge of those beds to the infirmary. Padma had been poured into the room where he slept and Seamus, shouting to hurry.
It happened so fast. As Ron ran to the tower where her sister had slept that night, after the celebration of marriage, Padma raised the alarm at the first ghost he could not defeat.
open the bedroom door of Harry and Hermione, Lupin and Tonks had found empty. Then, the cry of the boy had reached them, coming from the bathroom. The scene of Hermione, still in the arms of Harry, a trickle of blood that dripped from his forehead at the point where he had banged against the sink cabinet, he also ripped a scream Aurora colder.
"It 'a kind of coma, aggravated by forced insomnia that lasts for days. It seems to have no energy to wake up, and Ginny ... His condition is getting worse, as if ... "
" As if to achieve it. "
It was necessary to administer a potion to both highly soporific, because suddenly they started to get agitated, unable to respond to their calls.
The potion itself was in danger of having to take on Mrs. Granger, when he saw the scars of one year prior to revive the skin off of Hermione. Now her husband held her in his arms, on an old chest in the corridor outside the entrance of the infirmary.
"This ointment should be spread throughout the body. Even up to Ginny, I fear we will discover her body in the same conditions. "Madam Pomfrey looked Harr, Ron and Seamus. "Please, guys ..." said Moody
space Harry, who retreated apathetically to allow the average-sorceress to carry the booths around the beds. The Auror's arm encircled her shoulders and pushed him toward the exit with a description. Lupin and McGonagall followed him, whispering something very softly in the ears of Ron and Seamus.
heard the voice of Tonks, who offered to look after Hermione, Madam Pomfrey and began to undress and dress Ginny. There was a sob, barely suppressed. "This symbol ..."
Harry did not need to ask, to understand what he was talking about the woman. He had also seen him on the shoulder of Hermione, in the bathroom when he had raised his head from behind to lay them on their knees, waiting for help that had called, screaming like a madman.
The pajama jacket from cutting men had slipped on her skin, and the head of a small snake embossed on the shoulder had torn Harry a real scream of dismay.
"That snake ... that mark," McGonagall began to say, as they left the hall, "I'm sure they had not, when we released. "
Ron gulped. "My sister also mentioned that when he had that nightmare, weeks ago. He said Lucius Malfoy told him, after formulating the curse. "Dean glanced
The parents Hermione and Weasley, who were coming from the bottom of the corridor. "I'd better go and talk with them before ..."
Lupin nodded, then turned to pay attention to Ron. "It 's important to remember everything that has come out so far, guys. Ron speaks well. "
" He said that the mark had given Voldemort, on their shoulders. Then it was all she could remember about it. "
Seamus and Harry nodded.
"But how did he disappear for so long? "Seamus was asked in a low voice," Signs of torture were not gone, just ... you were only muffled, like ours. "
"It must be something very similar to the Dark Mark," said Moody.
the next hour tried to put together all the information, repeating what Ginny and Hermione had begun to report, after promising not to withdraw into themselves. But recently, things got worse before the Academy, Hermione had ceased to be studded with memories of that prison, and Arthur said that the red was the same. It also confirmed Colin, when he came near the infirmary.
"We have too few elements, guys. "Ron said," let us strive to remember something more. "
" They have no said another, "said Seamus.
"But they do now," said Harry.
"Harry, do you mean? "Moody looked at him as if he were crazy.
"You tell me. "Their
former professor of Defense knew the fly too well. "No, Harry ... listen, I know what you just thought, but do not do it. "
" What do you want to do, Lupin? "Mad-Eye gaze moved by my colleague Harry.
"He wants to use the mind reading. "
" No way, Harry, "Ron snapped.
"Do you want to save Ginny and Hermione, yes or no? "
" Not so, though. "Lupin pushed him to turn around to look into his eyes. "You can not do it, Harry. Did you see how you were hurt either, when you did not realize it, for those few minutes ... "
" So what the hell is this damn power, if I can use it to save people ... that's dying, Remus! "Lupin
hugged him, tightening the eyelids. "Do not say, Harry, do not think so either. "Continued ...
