《Bellatrix Lestrange》Chapter 8
Advertisement
"Are you sure about Cordelia?" Narcissa asked. "I've never heard of anyone named like that before."
Narcissa was sitting on her sofa, posture perfect as normal, and Bellatrix was lying on her back, playing with her hair.
"Yes I really like it." Bellatrix replied. "What would you name your daughter Cissy?"
"I'm not sure." Narcissa admitted. "Probably Druella after mother,"
"Ugh boring! Cissy you have no imagination, what would you WANT to name it, not what would you feel is the 'perfect' name," Bellatrix said laughing, sitting up. Narcissa never expressed her opinion when it came to things like this, so it interested Bellatrix.
"I really don't know..." Narcissa said. "Maybe... Kitana?"
"That's cute." Bellatrix admitted. "Oh, and I've decided on a middle name,"
"Let me guess," Narcissa said, as if she could read Bellatrix's mind. "Cordelia Bellatrix Lestrange?"
"Ha wrong." Bellatrix said placidly.
Narcissa looked shocked. "What then, Bella?"
"Cordelia Narcissa Lestrange." Bellatrix said, looking at her sister with a smile.
"Oh god!" Narcissa said, rubbing her finger under her eye to stop her mascara running with the following tears. "I love you more than anything else,"
"Even Lucius?" Bellatrix said laughing.
"Don't push it Bella," Narcissa said, also laughing.
*****Meanwhile at 12 Grimmauld place*****
"Dumbledore, what was the big problem you needed to speak to us about?" Alice Longbottom asked.
"It seemed really important," Sirius Black added.
Soft chatter was filling the room, and Dumbledore sat at the front of the table until he had enough. The wizard stood up and started talking.
"I understand that many of you may be confused of why I summoned you tonight,-"
"You can say that again," Sirus said, causing the rest of the order laugh under their breath.

Dumbledore cleared his throat and carried on. "Sirius, you may find this funny but it concerns a certain cousin of yours,"
"Narcissa, Andromeda ?" Sirius said hopefully.
"Bellatrix." Dumbledore said bluntly. "I have to admit, there has been some information I have not shared with you, however I have intended to as soon as I possibly could."
"This information," Frank Longbottom asked. "How long have you known?"
"A little under two months," Dumbledore admitted. "However I do not regret my actions, as I had to be sure,"
"Be sure of what?" Sirus asked.
"Your cousin Bellatrix's pregnancy."
The whole room went silent. After a few minutes, Lily Potter raised her voice.
"Bellatrix Lestrange is having a baby?" She asked. "But why?"
"That unfortunately, Lily, I do not know," he said. "But I do know that this pregnancy have made us some allies,"
"What are you talking about!" Remis Lupin asked, raising his voice for the first time that evening. "Surely the only thing happening here is the spawn of Satan?"
"My original thought exactly, Remus," Dumbledore replied. "But during these events, Narcissa Malfoy came to visit me."
"Narcissa Malfoy?" Lily asked. "The death eater?"
"Agh." Dumbledore said. "A common misconception."
"Misconception?" Frank Longbottom laughed. "She's almost as bad as her sister!"
"Narcissa may not be an angel, but she does not carry the dark mark." Dumbledore said seriously. "Narcissa actually seems like a very decent woman, she came to me seeking help, she has asked me to protect Bellatrix's baby."
"Lies!" Peter Pettigrew said, standing up. "That woman is evil."
"Sit down, Wormtail." Sirius said, putting his hand on his forehead and facing down at the table, as if Peter was an embarrassment. "Narcissa has never been evil, and not like her sister, even though she cares for Bellatrix deeply,"
"Well that's it then," Lily Potter said. "The baby must not be allowed to stay with its parents."
"My thoughts exactly Lily," Dumbledore said. "But were to put the child, is my real dilemma."
"That's easy!" Lily replied, smiling.
"What are you talking about lily?" Dumbledore asked, sincerely puzzled.
"Me and James will take the baby." She said. "We have always wanted a baby,"

Yora Chronicles
[Arc 0 - The Prologue] Airen and Yuelei Casteya - Two twins separated in act of revenge not of their own doing. One is sent to the frozen north, where she is adopted by a frost phoenix and taught to survive in the harshest of conditions, eventually meeting with the forces that govern nature itself. The other is sent to the southern deserts and is saved by a band of slaves-turned-raiders who take him in as one of their own, where he eventually came into contact with a being that calls herself the History Eater. The two sought power and the forces of the world would soon listen, but not without their own aspirations. And perhaps if the two were to meet again, they would be so warped by their own hands and would not even recognize the other. [Arc 1 - Disciple of the History Eater & Knighthood] Under the guidance of Fieluri, the whimsical being from the Archive, Airen moves south to the Red Slate Republic to attend Stonewall Military Academy. There, he finds himself wrapped up in the History Eater's ploys, and at the same time, learns of the somber side of society in the slave-driven republic. Eventually, under Fieluri's instruction, he descends into the depths of dungeons where he eventually reunites with an old acquaintance. Yuelei, who has grown used to living in the snowy mountains, moves north to the Holy Land of Ecclisa to attend the Royal Knight Academy. After Lin leaves, she slowly adapts to living with humans again, but not without ceaseless caution. The thinly-veiled peace is eventually broken, for the monsters that haunted the nights in the Whitefrost Mountains are returning once more. In response, the Holy Land of Ecclisa slowly prepare for war, but Yuelei is not just a mere bystander. All paths eventually leads to conflict. When it arrives, one can choose to deter it away, or to revel in it. [Arc 2 - WIP] NOTE- Based on an internal discussion, please be advised the earlier chapters of this novel [Arc 0 and Arc I] is going through a major revision and rewrite to gap the 6 years experience since the first draft of this novel.

My Girlfriend, the Necromancer
The power of the Orb cleaves the skies and shatters the earth. It heralds the advent of a new era, one where humanity is no longer at the top of the food chain and we must rise to the challenge when faced with our own extinction as a species. I could hardly care less. All I ever wanted was to love my Allie, to grow old and wrinkly by her side as I held her hand before taking my last breath on this green earth. To have our love echo through the ages, an ode to the last great love story on the planet, one that would endure the end of humanity, the breaking of the world, and even defy the dread summons of Death itself. It’s said that when the gods unleash their fury upon mortal kind, they grant their wishes. Well, crap. This is a gritty end of the world survival story with modern fantasy/romance/game-like elements in it. The main focus will be character development while stats and menus are there as a fun vehicle to empower the imagination. This is a work in progress and I deeply appreciate any helpful suggestions, so please don't be shy with input! Currently posting at least one chapter per week.

Tellus Stirs (Previously Earth AA)
The year is 2030. Earth is dying. War, pandemics, overwhelming pollution, species going extinct, climate change, etc. The so-called human race has brought more harm to their planet due to greed; their increased energy needs were on a path of decadence even with their increased technological advancements. Tactical Nukes were already used in conflicted zones in the fight for resources. The conclusion was a deep and frightening hum unleashed deep within the earth, heard by every living creature, and with it, civilization has ended. Those who survived wished they were slain along with their loved ones as the dead didn't have to endure what came after. Others took the opportunity to gain unimaginable power and prestige as a new age began. Chaos reigned as per the prophecies foretold in the past. Those who did not believe knew the signs were actual; these prophecies were no longer popular folk tales. Such titles, the Breaking, the Rapture, the Malhama, and many others, came at a high cost. After all, every city or densely populated area had been hit with natural disasters that encompassed tsunamis, Earthquakes, Firestorms, Typhoons, and hurricanes. Power, food, infrastructure. All of it was gone and what came after was worse as humans were no longer top of the food chain. Yet the imminent destruction of the 21st century re-opened a veil that had kept the world safe from hidden dangers, or maybe it was the other way around. Time will tell. In our story, the Protagonist rises from the ashes of the apocalypse. A desert child soldier nurtured by tragedy and death looking for an escape to fill the void in his heart. By chance, in his hand, he held a blade with immense possibilities. Notes: (30.06.2021) - I have re-edited and revised the following chapters up to Chapter 24. - Changed the Title from Earth AA to Tellus Stirs. (3.07.2022) - Edited the Synopsis Cover Done by [email protected] (Permission Given).
