fade to Black (Invite Only)

"SIRIUS!" finally Barty's spell keeping her at bay waned as he died and she ran to her husband his bleeding body sending her soul into turmoil rushing to his side she grabbed the stub of his arm immediately muttering spells to stop the bleeding. "DAD! DAD!" Drake struggled against the chains holding him but his body struggled on its own to even reply to his brain's actions, Mira looked up "i'll get you out in a second baby" she called to her oldest as she leaned over her barely concious husband and kissed his lips "Come on baby" bending over the injuring she tried once more to stem the blood her spells falling short from the terrible curses used to sever his limb. "Damn you crouch" she said in frustration the curses on the injury nearly impossible to fix.

Marcus had hard time to stay away from the scene. By the time he got there, he could alredy tell his father is not going to live. But he also knew that neithe of his parents, nor his sisters would forgive him if he died instead. Still, when he saw lifeless body of his dad, he froze on a spot and could feel tears in his eyes. He could hear screams of three of the most important women in his life, crying for the man lying dead on the floor, despite the fact nobody screamed just yet. He lost his dad. Again. Life gave him such a short time with him and Marcus was angry. He was angry not only for that fact, but also for the fact the jerk who killed his dad, is alive. And so is his whole family. And his mum won't touch them, because his aunt cares too much. And he respected his aunt. Loved her. And he loved his mother even more. But he refused to let this go unpunished. He refused to watch his mother's life in pieces again and her not fighting against it, because she, as she put it, alredy did enough.

And so he pushed tears away and decided to use the fact nobody knows about his presence. It wasn't fair. But life was not fair either. So why be a fool? "Crucio!" he shouted pointing his wand straight at Black's wife, stepping out of the shadows. If his dad taught him something, it was this curse. "You think you break a family and get a happy ending, huh? Well, guess what, if I am to tell my sisters that their dad won't come home ever again, I will at least bring a little satisfaction as a bonus," he hissed darkly with pure hate and anger, Loki hissing by his feet.

Her spine exploded with pain but didnt last the fifteen year old's skill was there but the durability of the spell needed work. She turned her wand at the ready dirt exploding at the boy's feet in a warning as she knelt ready to fight "You dont need to do this Markus.." she said "I knew you when you were small your aunt brought you to visit. Don't do this.."

"My aunt is the reason it's me standing here and not my mother. She hates you to the core. She hates him," Marcus pointed at Sirius. "And yet she won't touch you. He stole aunt from her when she needed her the most and now she is walking around on her tiptoes. But you know what? She is not me, I don't give a fuck if my aunt hates me for this. Because I am my mother's son. I can gladly bear this on my shoulders. Your precious husband ruined my family. It's only fair for me to ruin his," he hissed again, sending Dolohov's curse her way.

She pressed her wand to her leg "excellerant" she murmured the spell that made her faster then wind his words blurred as she took off running towards the boy, from his vantage point Drake only saw a blur running at the boy when suddenly a burst of light flashed as the spell was broken by the curse. Mira moved to grab his arm when the curse hit her gut, she hadn't known he was going to fire it she thought she had time. The excellerant charm exploded and the two blew her back as she hit the dirt the wind slammed from her lungs as she panted.

Marcus was partly surprised he managed to actually hit her. And given how she ended up, he hit her quite good. He knew she was older witch, she had advantages and given the fact he didn't kill her right away, he first needed to weaken her before he could actually play. "Tie her hands. Hard. Be careful," Marcus hissed at Loki as he approached her, slowly and his wand ready to attack, dagger in the other hand. "Dolohov's curse. Clever thing. I wonder what I hit," he smirked darkly as he came closer, quickly using his dagger to cut her achilles tendons, which made quite loud noise. "I believe that was painful," he pointed out, deadly calm.

She felt blood filling her womb and struggled to get up, how did this happen!? how!? A scream of pain and horror ripped from her throat as her feet suddenly lost feeling she realized she had no way out, the visions were coming together, the serpent had come for her after all.

Kicking out wand of her hands, he looked at her son. "Do you want to kill me, boy?" he asked him with twised smile as his tongue slipped out like Barty's tend to do. But he didn't wait fo answer, instead, he went back to his unfinished bussiness, he rolled her shirt a little, just to see where exactly the curse hit her. "Wow, I am good at this. I dare to say, I am actually tempted to let you live now. I mean, it's not like you could have another little Black bastards anyway, is it?" he teased her. "But then again, it's not like your dog of a husband wouldn't find someone else for that purpose. I mean, he is skilled in that one and you would be worthless anyway, so..." Marcus wondered if he can toy with her a little. Let her die thinking the worst.

"Mom don't listen to that bastard dont" Drake cried out to her tears rolling down his cheeks Mira looked up at Markus "Don't loose yourself don't" she said to him gently "Morana wouldn't kill me because she is a dark witch but she didnt loose herself" she cried out softly in pain as the snake constricted and she felt her wrists cracking under the pressure. "This war doesn't have to destroy you Markus.."

"She wouldn't do it, because she cannot loose Marvolo again. I, on the other hand, can handle loosing my aunt. What I can't handle is looking into my sisters' crying eyes and tell them, that I did not avenge their father when I had that chance," he said, starring into her eyes. There was no light, nothing that would make Marcus feel otherwise. He wasn't that kind of a person. "Your precious husband just destroyed what was left, if there ever was any. And you are going to die now. I seriously hope he is conscious enough to see it," he said darkly, looking at still bleeding Black, lying next to her. He took out his dagger again and slit her throat without hesitation. "So long, lady Black," he added before getting up, facing her son. "Never tease a snake with bare foot. This is what happens when you do. You take something I care about, I take something back," he said.

She turned her eyes to her husband looking into his dark eyes "I love you" she said seconds before the assault, she felt the knife pierce her throat and blood bubbled up through her lips, the cold steel opened her throat as the clouds above released there burdeon and rain fell down. Pain devoured her but she kept her eyes on sirius and then there was nothing in her eyes and her body fell limp.

Drake watched in horror as his mother died, he felt his heart shatter and he roared with rage at the boy "NO" he shouted "I'll FUCKING KILL YOU I SWEAR IT"

Walking in blood of the parents of the boy, Marcus approached him one last time. "It would sound much more threatening if you were at least able to get out of these chains. Welcome to the dark World. It's not gonna get better or easier," he whispered to him and smirked one last time before together with Loki, he left the room.
