《Emerald》33
Advertisement
We arrived in the ministry of magic, the hall of prophecy.
We all began searching for the orb that Harry saw in his dream.
We all lit our wands up with 'Lumos'.
The room was dark, filled with hundreds and hundreds of the glass orbs.
"This ones got your name on it, Harry." Luna spoke.
Harry ran over, and grabbed the orb from the shelf.
The orb began glowing, and clouds swirled in the center.
Clouds of black flew in, and death eaters surrounded us.
"I think you have something of mine." Lucius spoke as he extended his hand.
Lucius is Draco's father.
Lucius was a death eater.
"Why do you want something like this?" Harry asked, as he examined it.
"The dark lord wants to know how.... the boy lived. If you just hand it over, we won't be any trouble." Lucius smirked.
Bellatrix appeared behind Lucius.
Death eaters stood as all sides of us.
We all made a circle facing them.
"Now!" Harry yelled as we all casted at the death eaters.
The few that were hit, and flew back into the ground.
Some were too quick, and flew up into their clouds of smoke.
We all went running in different directions.
Bellatrix appeared behind me, her evil cackle echoed as she ran.
"Shit!" I yelled, as I turned the corner and ran a different direction.
"Stupefy!" I yelled, as I casted behind me.
I missed Bellatrix, but hit the shelves.
They toppled over quickly, knocking hundreds of the orbs to the ground.
They exploded glass shards everywhere, and Bellatrix flew up in the air as I continued to run.
I could hear the others running in the same direction as me.
There was an open door in the distance.

We all ran as fast as we could, as the shelves crashed down behind us.
When we ran through the door, we had entered the death chamber.
It was a dark room, with a stone archway in the center.
The archway had a gray veil that flowed under it.
As I stepped closer to it, I could hear whispers.
"Do you guys hear that?" I asked the group.
"Yes." Harry replied as he stepped closer.
"I do too." Luna said.
They both stepped closer with me.
"There's nothing there! It's just an archway. Now get away from it before-" Hermione was cut off.
Deatheaters quickly flew down, grabbing each one of us, besides Harry.
He stood by the archway, with the prophecy in hand.
The rest of us were put in head locks by the death eaters.
They put their wands to our heads, as they pulled us to the perimeter of the room.
Lucius walked amongst us, looking at our faces.
Almost studying them.
He stopped in his tracks at me.
Lucius pushed his wand into my face.
He picked up a strand of my hair, and smelling it.
"Your scent lingers on my dear son's clothing, his scent lingers on yours. You filthy mudblood! Poisoning my sons mind." Lucius yelled, before quickly turning away.
He walked up to Harry, and extended his hand again.
"Let's make this easy on the both of us." Lucius spoke.
"Don't give it to him, Harry!" Neville yelled.
Harry swallowed hard, before handing Lucius the prophecy orb.
Lucius smiled, as he proudly held it up in the air.
The Order of the Phoenix appeared in the center, casting the deatheaters away from us.
The deatheater holding me, hit the wall behind us.
That caused a large amount of rubble to fall on top of me.

Out of the small crack between pieces of rubble, I could see Lucius fall too the ground.
The prophecy fell as well, shattering as it hit the ground.
Immense pain filled my body, I could feel blood begin to pour from my skin.
My vision began to go black.
"I'll get her!" Nymphadora yelled as she grabbed my hand through the rubble.
Everything went black.
...
"Oh, son of a bitch!" I groaned, as my eyes opened.
I was in the hospital wing at Hogwarts.
My head was pounding.
Harry was sitting on the bed next to mine.
Hermione, and Ron where here as well.
"Glad you're finally awake." Ron laughed.
"What happened?" I sat up.
"Rubble tumbled on you. You got a couple nice gashes on your head, Passed out from blood loss." Hermione, stated as she wrote in her notebook.
I put my hand up to my forehead, and felt the stitches that were in my skin.
"What's up with Harry?" I asked.
"Bellatrix killed Sirius. After the order of the Phoenix got us out of there, Voldemort showed up. So did Dumbledore. Voldemort is back, he's stronger than ever." Harry spoke with a serious tone.
Voldemort was stronger than ever, he wasn't going down without a fight.
"Dumbledore is back. Umbridge is being invested." Hermione smiled.
"At least that's one good thing that came out of this." I let out a nervous chuckle.
Hermione closed her notebook, and stood up quickly.
"Malfoy was looking for you." Hermione spoke quickly with an annoyed tone.
She turned around, and walked out.
Ron followed her.
Malfoy.
The memory of him holding Cho, as the wall to the DA meeting crumbled dow, flooded my head.
It was forever burned into my mind.
His father, Lucius the deatheater, almost killing us.
Anger pumped through my veins.
I stood up quickly, and marched out of the hospital wing.

Valkyrie's Shadow
In the wake of the Battle of Katze Plains, the banner of Ainz Ooal Gown flies proudly over the city of E-Rantel. The Sorcerous Kingdom has entered the world’s stage to the clamour of death and devastation; the surrounding nations fearfully prepare even as they reel from its calamitous debut. Within the borders of the newly annexed realm, its Human subjects cower in their homes as the Undead openly walk the streets and stalk the lands. Yet, when a destitute noble finds herself under the auspices of an unlikely benefactor, events are set into motion that will resound over the world for ages to come. A kingdom builder based on the events and setting of Kugane Maruyama’s Overlord. In a fantasy world where beings of matchless power are transmigrated from the arbitrary existence of a game, Valkyrie’s Shadow chronicles the lives of the natives whose reality has been turned upside down by their advent. It is the tale of a nation created by the whims of a supreme sovereign, and his unstoppable servants who each have their own, often twisted, interpretations of their Master’s Will. There is no victory in strength; no miracles wrought from magic that will save them: only the inexorable advance of a new world order where those who secure a place of service within will find themselves turned against the world that they once knew. [Slow buildup. Methodical storytelling with a focus on well-rounded kingdom building and character development.]
