Harry Potter: Shadows of Tomorrow

Voldemort held a meeting in Malfoy Manor, he sat at the head of the table while a couple of death eaters sat with him. Mostly the ones he rescued from Azkaban, including Lucius Malfoy, who had agreed to allow him use of his house. Voldemort then awarded him with a crucio, and then he hit a different death eater with the same spell just for the fun of it.

The death eaters sat, all afraid to speak out of turn and some even afraid to look at him. In the back ground stood Wormtail, above him hovered Charity Burbage, the muggle studies teacher.

"Greetings, my friends" Voldemort said in a way that let the people there know that they were definitely not friends. "I'm sure that many of you are curious as to why I've brought you here, and I'm sure many of you are wondering why I've called you here. I've brought you here to discuss Potter." A silence fell, nobody was willing to speak, Voldemort continued.

"Potter has been attacking our forces, he has been killing off our members...yet, none of you have been able to stop him. A mere boy" Silence reigned over the death eaters, all of them to afraid and ashamed to realise that Voldemort was being a bit hypocritical at the moment.

"My lord" One brave member spoke up, just loud enough to be heard "we apologise, we are doing our best"

"Your best?" Voldemort scoffed "if this is your best then I dread to think how pathetic you idiots are when you are not putting in effort, now, Mr Potter is coming of age. However, this news does not matter as it appears that the underage magic rules, along with every single other rule, does not apply to him. Would any of you like to tell me why that is?" Nobody spoke, silence ringed throughout the manner

"What say you, Pius?" Voldemort asked the man opposite him.

Pius sat there, Nagini hissed in the background. Voldemort looked at the man in front of him, one of his death eaters had managed to place him under the imperious curse so Voldemort could use his ministry position to his advantage.

"One hears many things my lord, whether the truth is amongst them, is uncertain" Pius responded as Nagini hissed in the background

"Ha" Voldemort let out a small laugh "spoken like a true politician…" A sound was heard in the background "Lucius, what was that noise?"

"I apologise, my lord" Lucius bowed his head, barley able to look at Voldemort "it must have been one of the house elves, I will punish them once this meeting is adjourned"

"The house elves didn't do it because you don't have any house elves" An amused voice spoke, everyone turned to see where Pius was sitting. But saw that he wasn't there anymore. In his place was one Harry Potter, he was wearing his 'Curse' costume but didn't have the hood pulled up so everyone could see his face.

"You're wife took the house elves" Harry continued "she took them along with all your money,. So you Lucius, are worth preciously nothing at the moment"

The death eaters were about to stand and get their wands out, but Voldemort held up his hand to stop them. They all reluctantly sat down and glared at the boy.

"What are you doing in my house?!" Lucius demanded

"Careful Lucius" Harry warned "I took away your house elves, I've taken away your family who took your money. So in total I've taken your servants, your family, your money and if you speak to me with that attitude again then it will be your life." A cold chill filled the room, as Lucius's pale skin began matching his hair "A little advice for the long run, do not talk when your superiors are conversing."

"Well said" Voldemort spoke "pray tell, Mr Potter, how did you get in here and what did you do with Pius?"

"Pius has been sent back to the ministry, as for getting here, I used my feet"

"Ah, still as witty as ever. You are nothing, if not entertaining, Potter. I assume you have a reason for coming here"

"What? Can't I come and see you without an excuse?" Harry joked

"You could" Voldemort smiled "but not many people tend to do so, so I ask you again, what are you doing here?"

"I actually came to discuss a few things with you, and your little dogs while I'm at it" Harry replied, the death eaters bristled at the fact that they were called dogs "or should I say snakes? Yes, that seems more appropriate but with the way these pathetic mongrels follow you for scraps of power and get put down by me, I'd say my first description was more accurate. Now, the first thing I'd like to ask, is do any of you wish to leave Voldemorts services? I can guarantee you safety if you do"

A chorus of negative responses was all Harry heard, the people in front of him looked insulted at the very idea. Voldemort watched with amusement, while Harry just seemed bored.

"You no good half-blood!" One death eater screamed "how dare you show up and…"

He didn't get to finish his sentence, the other death eaters stared at him and wondered why he had stopped. He sat perfectly skill, growing paler and paler until he lost motor control and his head hit the table. He drooled on the table, his eyes were blank and he had stopped moving and breathing.
