"So, what was with that little girl?" Natasha asked me as we stepped through my portal.
I took in the sights around us. It was beautifulâgreen hills as far as the eye could see. I reached out my senses to try and find where Voldemort was hiding. I didnât feel anything out of the ordinary except in one direction. There was a barrier of some kind that reminded me of the one I had just collapsed.
âLuna? Sheâs special. Sheâs a seer.â I answered Natasha's question.
âA seer? InterestingâŚthat kind of ability could be really useful toâeep!â Natasha let out a cute squeak as I scooped her up into my arms in a princess carry.
She then gave me a small glare as I smiled down at her. âSorry, but it would be a pretty far walk, and Lunaâs warning made this seem sort of urgent. We're going to fly now.â I flapped my wings and took off into the sky towards the direction of the barrier. The landscape rapidly changed under us, and 30 seconds later I landed back down right in front of the barrier.
Natasha practically leapt from my arms when I touched down. She started rubbing herself all over while shaking. âDâdo you know how c-cold it is hundreds of feet in the air!?â She yelled at me while shivering. Her skin was almost turning blueâŚ
OhâŚI forgot about that. Temperatures haven't affected me for a while now. Freezing simply felt a little bit cold to me.
[You can try blessing her with your Light. That might help.]
Oh right! I could do that! I gathered my Light Energy into my palm before placing my hand on Natashaâs cheek. âI bless you with the warmth of my light.â Blessing someone felt strange. It was like a small part of my light slipped inside of her, and I instinctively knew it would forever protect Natasha unless I took it back.
âWhaââ Was all Natasha could get out before she temporarily shined with purple light. When it faded away, her skin had returned to its normal healthy color. âI feelâI feel warm. Interesting.â Natasha noted as she checked herself over. âWhat did you do to me?â
âI blessed you with my light to never feel cold againâŚunless you want to. You could take a bath in the Arctic Ocean if you wanted to and be absolutely fine. It should have other effects as well, but I'm not sure what they are. I've never blessed a human before.â
Natasha looked wistfully. âWho would have thought someone with my past would ever receive the blessing of an Angel⌠I'm sure a lot of the people I killed would be rolling in their gravesâŚâ She trailed off.
I wrapped her in another hug. âYou can't change the pastâŚwell, you can, but I don't recommend it as you'd piss off a lot of higher-level entities. That doesn't mean you can't rectify your sins.â
âEnough of this sappy crap.â She said as she broke our hug. âWhat are we going to do about that?â Natasha asked while pointing at the shimmering barrier in front of us.
âYou can see it?â I asked in surprise. It was a pure magical barrier and from my understanding, even wizards and witches could rarely see pure magic.
The interesting thing about Voldemortâs barrier was that I couldn't see or hear anything through it. All I could see was a shimmering cloudiness.
[It seems like your blessing is already having other effects on her.]
I told her to stand back and put my hand on the barrier in front of us. The moment I did, I immediately felt the barrier react and some dark magic tried to lash out at me.
[-10HP]
It was barely strong enough to even scratch me. I started to apply force upon the barrier while enhancing myself with my Light. After a few moments, just like with the Weasleyâs, the barrier ended up completely collapsing.
And then I saw the man I had been searching for down below. Voldemort was staring up at me with a look of shock on his snakelike face. Surrounding him were a bunch of his Death Eaters. All of them were chanting around a ritual circle based with a pentagram base in the center.
âM-my lord! Sheâs here!â Lucius Malfoy said with fear in his voice.
âDammit! How did you find me!â Voldemort screamed at the two of us. His red eyes were glowing in fury! âThe ritual was almost complete as well!â
âDid you forget Tom!?â I replied haughtily while floating off the ground slightly to make myself more intimidating. âIâm an Agent of Death. Of course I know where to find you. Youâll never be able to escape her.â This time, me saying that wasnât technically a lie either because I was Deathâs favored.
âHow dare you say my Lordâs name you stuck up bitch! Youâre nothing more than a filthy creature! Iâll cut your wings off and mount them on my walls as a trophy!â A gangly woman with a foul mouth who could only be Bellatrix Lestrange screamed at me. âAvada Kedavra!â The killing curse flew forth from her wand and sailed towards me. Compared to the last time I faced this curse, it honestly looked like it was moving in slow motion. It also felt completely harmless. Like it couldn't hurt me at all. As the curse reached me, I reached my hand upâŚand caught it.
The sickly green spell rested in my palm. I inspected it for a moment before I swung my arm and tossed her curse right back at her! My throw had made the curse move at a far higher speed than it normally did. She had no hope of dodging
âWhat!?â Bellatrix shrieked! As her own spell struck her, she died with a look of shock on her face.
âYou are my favoredâŚDeath magic will never be able to hurt you againâŚâ
I shivered as I felt a familiar whisper in my earâŚ
