Chapter 440: Birth of a monster
"Not giving us a lot of time to train are you?" Seamus asked with a frown. "You won't need it if you train seriously with the help of the potions the twins have , on me of course." Nick said with a grin. "How are we going to train at the same time though , there is only one field?" Malfoy asked confused. Nicks grin grew and he removed three sets of extra goals and pointed at the black lake in the distance. "You can either use the lake or figure out how to make a body of water large enough to practice in on your own. Though I suppose you could also share the field with another team when you train." he said with a chuckle at the looks of disbelief he got.-
"Before someone says it , the black lake is going to be cold but if you use a warming charm on yourselves before entering you will be fine." he added to nip that argument in the bud. He even went so far as to teach them his own personal warming charm that lasted hours and worked underwater just fine. After that the teams fought over who got to use the field first while Nick left for the castle with his relaxation now good and set.-
He only decided to make a new magical sport so he had something to do that wasn't work related when he needed to relax. It also helped that unlike quidditch he didn't have any bias against this new sport and might actually enjoy watching it get played. Time passed after that and soon enough Halloween arrived and a secret ritual was being held in the island prison of Azkaban. The perpetual bad weather of the island did nothing more than mask the sound of chanting in a particular part of the prison until it was too late to stop what was happening.-
""Est omnia et omnia unum!"" these words were repeated a total of seven times and the blood ritual circles lit up in the cells. Each had a person standing within it as the magic took hold but there was two people with different expressions involved in the ritual. Rookwood who had a look of horror and unwillingness and Bellatrix with a look of ecstasy. The white light of the majority of the ritual circles suddenly turned red and screams of agony filled the air before leaving behind nothing but the cackle of a new and very powerful being.-
Bellatrix had miscalculated something when she modified her ritual circle to devour the others to empower her alone. She forgot to take into account the souls , vitality and minds of those being devoured and as a result her body was flooded with all of them. The vast vitality and power purified her body and magical circuits while the souls and minds that crashed into her own destroyed all of them as individuals and created an amalgam of all.-
Bellatrix nor any of the other death eaters existed anymore but now there was a thing with all that experience and knowledge and more power than it knew what to do with. A monster had been born and the only part of the peoples personalities it had left was the overwhelming urge to escape the prison it was born into and endless hunger. With a wave of it's hand the creature released a pulse of energy that briefly clashed with the wards of the prison before overpowering them. The walls containing it then started to turn into sand and collapse as the monster walked out of the hole it made.-
The dementors felt this disturbance and moved to intercept the monster but froze at a distance as the beings unstoppable power rolled over them and began to devour them adding to it's power. The ministry quickly learned of this "escape" and sent teams of aurors to the island but all they found was an empty prison and signs of a foul ritual in the cells of the former death eaters. The only clue they had besides that was that the "escapee" seemed to be Bellatrix Lestrange. Bounty posters and urgent news papers went out in a matter of hours after that.-
Hogwarts was in a dreary mood as a result when the news arrived and Nick had a very bad feeling about it. He wasted no time heading to Dumbledores office and barging in interrupting a meeting with the staff. "You can get onto me later but whatever this is has my instincts going nuts and that is VERY bad. Not even those two caused me to feel this threatened." Nick said with visible fear. "Sybil here was saying something similar and I am also inclined to agree with these feelings of yours , something of terrible creation has been unleashed into the world." Dumbledore said sternly.
