《Vampire in the Harry Potter World(Hiatus)》Chapter 14 The Fight Inside the Diary
Advertisement
Malfoy Manor, inside the study, Voldemort was absorbing the soul fragment that was inside the Gaunt Ring. Kai was watching quietly while standing like a statue in the corner next to the bookshelf behind the desk.
After 5 minutes, Voldemort absorbed the final pieces of the fragment and was at around 30% of his complete soul. Voldemort's current form was much more corporeal. His facial features could actually be seen, and he was unlike his appearance in the films, or the descriptions that were told in the books.
He had green emerald coloured serpentine eyes, a sharp nose and thin lips. His eyebrows were thin as well and his hair was currently in the form of long knotted hair trailing behind him into the mist. He had a long angular face with high cheekbones.
They were ready to begin destroying the personality of the soul fragment inside the diary. This would be their hardest challenge since the soul had 50% of Voldemort's original soul.
Kai would be fighting the soul from a distance utilising the subconscious world as his tool, while Tom's current soul that was made up of 30% would be fighting "on the front lines."
After they made their battle plan, Kai took out the diary and along with the spectral Tom next to him, they both touched the diary that was lying on the table.
Their souls were both sucked into the diary's world. What they saw was a large stone room in front of them. They were standing at the entrance and in front of them was a path that led to a large pool of water. On the sides of the path were open-mouthed snakeheads and above the pool was a giant head of a bearded man with wide open eyes and a closed mouth.
Around them was a dome-shaped ceiling, Kai estimated that the height of the ceiling was 300 meters and the total size of the surroundings were 10 square kilometres.
Kai looked at Voldemort and saw a young man wearing a black wizard robe standing next to him. He had the same facial features as the soul form and a slightly muscular body.
Kai and Tom both exclaimed in unison "the chamber of secrets!" "Why are we here," Kai asked. At the same time, he thought to himself that he had expected that he would only come to the chamber when he would be in Hogwarts.
Kai tried to use his vampiric strength but couldn't, thus he braced himself to his best capability and opened the mental door that connected his soul to his subconscious. At the same time, Voldemort magically made his wand appear and got ready to cast a curse while creating a protective barrier he said the incantation "Protego Duo" and making the wand movement to create the shield.
Kai peered into the door to his subconscious and saw several bizarre creatures, objects and landscapes. He looked up and saw an old wooden sign hanging above the door with the words "Only 4" written on it.
Kai decided to take the first 4 random things that he saw- a weird potion labelled regeneration, a 5-meter-tall, 20-meter-long western dragon monster, a glowing sword and a black and red Iron man-like suit. Kai had picked these "summons" because of the limited time he had before the Basilisk appeared.

His "summons" appeared in front of him Kai quickly drank the potion with regeneration written on it. It had a fishy taste and made Kai choke up. He then equipped the Ironman suit and saw that inside the helmet there was the glowing blue interface. When Kai checked the battery level he found out that there was 326%. Kai was pleasantly surprised and checked the weapons in the suit according to the description in the helmet.
There were two laser blasters on his palms, two retractable rocket launchers on his shoulders. Rocket boots, the arc reactor core could shoot out a huge high-powered laser, but the downside was that it took lots of energy to power. There were also two flamethrowers on each of his wrists, one on the top and one on the bottom.
Kai gripped the glowing sword and with every movement, it created wind blades. The dragon creature, now identified as a wyvern could shoot fire from its mouth as well as fly and could act as the tank, taking the brunt of the damage.
While Kai was trying to come up with a good strategy, the mouth of the giant head was opening with a loud screeching noise. Kai and Tom's attention instantly went towards the opening mouth and tensed up.
Kai expected the Basilisk to come out, however, what came out of the mouth was the 16 years-old Tom Riddle, who said in an arrogant voice with amusement show all over his face, "So two rats have come to fight for supremacy. My former soul and an unknown weakling."
Kai urged the wyvern to charge at the young Tom, but unfortunately for Kai and Voldemort. Tom's body that was standing by the mouth of Salazar Slytherin's statue exploded with a black cloud. Kai activated his runic eyes, but he couldn't see anything.
When the smoke cleared, Kai and Voldemort saw a colossal winged serpent. On top of the basilisk's head, there were two twisting horns, it had a pair of giant sinister yellow eyes and a fang-filled mouth. The rest of the serpent's body was grey coloured, with an armoured back split into numerous sections that allowed the basilisk to move freely.
It had numerous bone spikes coming out of its tail, starting from the top of the neck until the tip of the tail. The other difference between the original basilisk and the current one, apart from the horns, size and spike were the massive wings. The wings largely resembled a bat's, grey and leathery with the bones clearly seen. The pair of wings started to beat and lifted the basilisk of the ground.
Kai thought that the total length of the mutated basilisk in front of him resembled a Targaryen (Not from the game of thrones) from Warlock of a Magus World more than a basilisk. It was around 300-400 meters long and 20 meters wide with the head being 25 meters wide.
Kai told Voldemort to use a spell that would cause him to see the Targaryen without directly looking at it so that he wouldn't be petrified.
Due to Kai's suit, he wouldn't be at risk of being petrified, but the wyvern, on the other hand, would be. Kai cursed under his breath for his mistake, because he didn't consider that the wyvern wouldn't be able to resist the petrification from the Targaryen's glare.

Kai then started to use his armour to distract the serpent so that it would forget about the wyvern and thus Kai could use it at a critical time. Kai thought of the wyvern as a summon and knew that it would return to his subconscious if it died in the battle.
He urged it mentally to hide while flying around the chamber and bombarding the colossal serpent with laser beams, that seemed to do little to no damage. The serpent hissed out in parseltongue "fool your little lights won't be able to hurt my magnificent self."
Kai launched the missiles and saw explosions that were caused by the impacts of the rockets. A large amount of smoke covered the Targaryen's face, while Kai looked at Voldemort who was creating a complicated spell. Kai activated his runic eyes and saw that Voldemort was creating a large sun.
Voldemort told Kai to buy him five more minutes, to complete the spell. Kai looked back at the snake that had recovered from the impact of the missiles and gave him a thumbs up.
Kai tried shooting missiles again, but the serpent moved too quickly and that was surprising considering its huge size. Kai quickly started flying in the opposite direction that the Targaryen was rapidly approaching. Kai stopped for a moment and faced the Targaryen and activated the arc reactor that was in his chest and fired directly into the Targaryen's face that was merely 3 meters away from him.
The snake flew back into the wall and crashed into it causing a huge vibration throughout the whole chamber. Kai quickly followed the serpent and started to fire into the Targaryen's body that was stuck in the wall. He put the sword back into his mind and called the wyvern to help hold down the Targaryen. At the same time, he checked the Power levels of his suit and saw that it was at 294%, while each second a percentage was drained.
While the wyvern helped pin down the Targaryen, Kai continued to shoot his chest beam. But unfortunately, the Targaryen started to resist and was trying to get out of the wall. Kai had to shoot out two more beams from his palms to continue his temporary capture of the Targaryen.
He looked at the percentage and saw that for each second now 4% was being drained. While he was trying to come up with a plan he felt even more resistance from the Targaryen and saw that it was looking directly at the wyvern, who was staring back at it dumbly.
Kai watched in despair as the wyvern was turned to stone, and as the Targaryen turned its gigantic eyes back onto Kai. It opened its mouth with difficulty and swung its head at Kai. From its mouth, its acidic venom flew out and while most of its saliva was burned by the beams a bit of it splashed on his chest.
Kai's arc reactor switched off after a few flickers and Kai turned around and flew away before the Targaryen's massive tail could crash into him from the side.
Kai looked at the power and saw that it was only at 117% while he had to delay the serpent for another 3 more minutes, according to the timer on his armours interface.
Kai activated his flamethrowers while he felt the serpent's shadow above him, so while he was flying he flipped around so that he was flying on his back. What greeted him was a massive gaping mouth a mere few meters away from him.
Kai blasted the flames into the Targaryen's mouth and hoped that it would kill it, but alas the flames only slowed the beast down. The great serpent said to Kai "enough playing around your tricks are annoying me and I'm starting to feel powerful magical fluctuations from my original soul, so let's end this" it said with a screech.
The Targaryen shot acidic venom from its mouth onto Kai's armour and unfortunately for him, it hit his entire back causing his interface to blink incessantly with a red light. The message that was shown in front of Kai's face "error critical damage has been sustained no power can be mustered, losing power."
Kai felt the whole suit begin to plunge and he landed with a bang like a small meteor and continued to create a 5-meter trail behind him before he finally stopped.
Kai quickly stopped and ejected himself from the suit and only took the helmet with him to protect himself from the Targaryen's petrification. He turned around and saw the Targaryen land in front of him. Kai took out the glowing sword from his mind's space and raised it to defend himself.
"Oh, the little midget has taken out another toy," the Targaryen said in a curious manner. "But it won't stop the inevitable." Kai waved the sword and a wind blade appeared and hit the serpent's scales.
Surprisingly the wind blade had managed to pierce the armoured serpent. The Targaryen narrowed its large eyes and hissed in anger at Kai. It extended its neck and opened its mouth to the maximum range, before plunging down towards Kai.
Kai heard Voldemort shout "Duck!" Kai did so subconsciously because still didn't know what was going on but still trusted Voldemort enough to duck. Just as Kai ducked the sun spell smashed into the Targaryen's descending mouth completely obliterating its mouth along with half of its body.
The Targaryen' split body slumped lifelessly down onto the ground, with a loud *Bang* and the ground shuddered. Voldemort walked up to Kai and said, "that was over" and patted Kai on the back. "Yes, it is" Kai murmured.
