HP – Shadow Monarch!

[Chapter Size: 1800 Words.]
Third Person POV

Hogwarts.

...

...

"Hey, Snape!" A seventh-year student immediately blocked Snape's path, who looked at him raising an eyebrow.

"What do you want, haven't I beaten you enough today?" He asked calmly.

People around heard this and whispered, wondering what had happened, while the one who received the question felt somewhat humiliated.

"You attacked us cowardly, you are such a repulsive being!" He began to insult him.

"1 against several, and I'm the coward?" Snape raised the question, ready to hit him, getting annoyed at dealing with spoiled youths from that house.

"..." The student clenched his teeth, his gaze falling near the fireplace while Lucas Nott approached Bellatrix, hoping he would convince her to turn against Snape.

"Lady Bellatrix!" Lucas approached the woman who was reading her book, and she ignored him as soon as she heard him.

"I need to speak with you! It's urgent!" Lucas asked again.

"..." The woman simply ignored him.

"Please, Lady Bellatrix." He had to beg.

"If you don't leave right now, I will shove you into the fireplace," she threatened, as he knew she could do it and swallowed hard, but persisted hoping he could finally get his revenge on Snape.

"Listen, Lady Bellatrix, the half-blood who is dating your sister is right there. He said he is going to marry Andromeda and take the Black name for himself!" He resorted to a lie, and it seemed to work.

At last, Bellatrix simply dropped her book and looked at him with a deadly gaze. "Don't be angry at me, Lady Bellatrix... you should talk to that boy there!" He pointed towards Snape, standing in front of the dormitory corridor, blocked by another student.

"So he is Severus Snape?" she commented, not recalling having met him before, after all, they really hadn't bumped into each other this year. She even pushed Lucas aside with the intent of throwing him in the infirmary, and simply tossed her book aside and stood up.

Everyone immediately saw this movement, and their eyes widened knowing Bellatrix's intent as she approached Snape directly there.

"What is she doing?"

"Is she going to talk to Snape?"

The conversations soon began, while the whole place was paying attention to this, even the young man standing in front of Snape saw the movement and widened his eyes as Snape also calmly turned his gaze, seeing that girl he didn't remember having met before. And somehow she seemed quite angry at him.

She came looking at him with a deadly gaze as she approached. "So you're the one dating my sister? Is that true?" She asked, getting in front of him, while the whole place went silent, waiting for what would happen with this sudden encounter.

Snape said nothing at first, just wondered what the hell this crazy girl was talking about. She moved even closer to him and stared at him still with her deadly gaze. Snape raised an eyebrow at the hostility of the girl. "I don't know what you're talking about. Besides, who are you?" he asked, and that seemed to freeze the entire room the next moment, making everyone who feared Bellatrix shocked by what they had just heard.

Even Bellatrix opened her eyes, wondering where this half-blood who didn't even know her had come from. "Listen here, half-blood, I will say this only once," she spoke, pulling her wand from her waist and pointing it at Snape, "I will torture you, but this will be just so you understand that you must stay away from my sister and my name, because my family will never associate with a half-blood, an inferior being," she said, while she was ready to start torturing the boy in front of everyone there.

However, just as she was about to cast the spell, a quick hand grabbed her wand hand and moved it aside, surprising her as her gaze returned to Snape who had caught her. "How dare you touch me?" she snarled, but barely had time to react to the next move, as Snape filled her face with the palm of his hand, creating a slap sound that echoed throughout the Slytherin common room.

SLAP!

At that moment, no one there could breathe; no one really knew what had just happened as Bellatrix Black was slapped in front of everyone. Even those who expected to see the boy on the ground being tortured by that mad woman found themselves with wide eyes and open mouths, wondering if what they were seeing was real.

Three seconds of silence passed before Bellatrix broke it. "HOW... DARE... YOU...?!" Her face was turned sideways, still stunned by the pain she was feeling, she growled each of those words with a bloodthirsty tone as she turned back to Snape. "I will kill you, you half-blood!" She seemed like a woman completely out of control, consumed by hatred.

She tried to pull her wand, which Snape had grabbed at her wrist, and couldn't, no matter how much force she applied. The other seventh-year Slytherins, in a normal state, would have attacked Snape, but seeing Bellatrix being hit like that completely broke them.

"Listen here, you crazy woman, I don't know you and you'd better learn some manners when talking to people. It seems they don't teach you that at your home," Snape commented calmly, making people still try to understand what was happening there.

"What did you say?" she exclaimed with a high-pitched scream, but then received another slap.

SLAP!

"You half-blood!!!" She tried to speak again, but received another slap.

SLAP!

Her cheeks were red by now as she felt the burning and couldn't even release her wand from Snape's grip. But, as the talented and powerful witch she was, she quickly cast a spell that made Snape's hand release her. Meanwhile, she quickly swung her wand forward to cast an unforgivable curse at his face, point-blank. The Cruciatus Curse passed right by the side of Snape's head as he turned and leaned to the side, dodging the attack.

"You're good, maybe the best I've encountered in this school..." Snape commented, looking at the wand by his side, "...but you still need a lot more than that to be a challenge for me." He murmured before grabbing her wand from her hand and slapping her again. This slap was so strong that she simply fell to the ground the next moment, unconscious.

The place fell silent at the same moment; no one really knew what the hell had really happened there and how that had been possible. Snape looked at the black-haired girl lying on the floor with her cheeks still pink and turned to the students. "Someone take her to the infirmary and tell her that I will not be so lenient the next time she casts a spell on me," he said with a threatening tone, while the students who already feared Snape now gained another level of fear in him. After all, there was only one person everyone feared more than Snape, and that person was now lying on the floor after receiving several slaps from him.

Snape returned to his dormitory after that, uncaring about what he had done. He still kept Bellatrix Black's wand. "Maybe I'd return it if the girl came to apologize."

This event would be forever marked in Slytherin, while some girls quickly took Bellatrix to the infirmary.

"Hey, Lucas... what just happened..." A seventh-year student murmured to his companion.

"I don't know... but I never want to mess with Snape again..." Lucas murmured in response.

While chaos ensued in Slytherin, outside of Hogwarts, somewhere in the middle of England, in an abandoned medieval castle, far from all civilization, a group of hooded people was gathered in a dark room.

"So, we will start our attack soon, I hope everyone is ready." One of the group gathered around a table spoke, while the other hooded figures nodded.

"Yes, but let's not send everyone, just a small group, since we are only going to attack a few mudblood students." another spoke with a sadistic tone.

"That's good. We are finally going to get some students from that old man. We've been waiting for this for months and the time has finally come. We won't disappoint the Dark Lord," another spoke.

"The Dark Lord is not coming with us?" Another said, a bit disappointed.

"Calm down, the Dark Lord will be with some of the main members doing something even more important," another commented softly.

"Well, that's a shame, but if the Dark Lord wants it so, so it shall be," he concluded.

"That's good. Another thing, my lady wants us to capture this student," one of the people said as they placed a photo of a Hogwarts student in front of everyone.

"Wait, that Severus Snape? I received an order from my lord too. What does Lady Rosier want with this student?" Another man spoke, surprised by this.

"This student severely hurt her son, and she wants revenge. And even if we can't capture him, we have orders to kill him," the person from the photo spoke.

"Negative, my lord Malfoy has asked us to capture him. They say he is important to the Dark Lord's cause, being a rising potion master, he will be very useful," another person spoke.

"I will obey my lady, not your lord. I will do what I can with him," one of them said in defiance.

"No, you won't," he retorted.

And so, a discussion continued among those in black robes, but one thing was clear: they were going to initiate an attack in Hogsmeade, as Narcissa had spoken to Snape months ago, and the time had finally come. But one of their main plans was that some of the Death Eaters had Snape as their target.

Meanwhile, later that night, a girl woke up in the middle of the infirmary, her first action was to touch her cheek; she began to remember all her old memories, which seemed to start enraging her—she had never been touched before.

"Did he dare to touch me...?" She began to murmur with so much hatred that she could not have felt this for anyone else before.
"He hit me!" She growled there alone, while there was no one else to see this surreal scene.
"He also took my wand? Where is it?!" She exclaimed, and this time panicked without her wand.
"I swear... I swear I won't give up until I kill him, do you hear... SNAPE?!" She exclaimed with hatred while Penelope, who had been resting in a corner, woke up with a name being called, a name she herself despised when it was pronounced.
