My fool of a father

[Nathan Leigh]

"You fool." I hiss through the bars at father. "You got yourself caught, you fool!"

"Well, I've always tried to teach you son." He smirks, not the least bit troubled by his arrest. "Now you know what not to do."

"I told you, I don't do that anymore! I'm not-...like you anymore."

"You can't fight it." He says peacefully, the ever present sneer still firmly in place. "You're little search was enough to grant you temporary freedom, but you've still got the mark, you're still in his service, I suggest you return."

"And get caught just like you?"

"No, and serve him. Like has always been intended, as you used to do. Go, Nathan, go back."

I look at him, hard for a moment. "Why should I do anything you say?" Then I turn and start to walk away.

"Because I'm your father! Because your mother died so that we could go on, in his service."

I stop immediately, he'd never told me anything about mother before. "Tell me about her. What happened? What was she like? Please..."

"Go back to him, then I'll consider it." He smirks.

I hesitate, then turn, a small smile, restrained as always, but a smile none-the-less, in place. "Your will is done, father."

"As I expected." He says, retreating back into the shadows of his cell.

I turn and start to walk very slowly through Azkaban prison.

I was outside one of the cell looking at the man that I once new "so now what will you do?" I asked.
"Hmmm I don't know yet little cherry blossom" he replied with a smirk

"I'm not your anything anymore." I snerred

"but I know you still want to be right?" he asked comming up to the bars and looked me in the eye.

I smiled and said "no I moved on."

"so how's the war going for you?" he asked smirking like he knew everything

"it's over he's dead and my family is free" I said

"but for how long?" he asked with a smirk.

I didn't say anything.

[Nathan Leigh]

I turn and make to go back to father, then tell myself to stop being stupid and carry on slowly down the corridor.
I see a girl, Sora, I think up ahead.

[sorachicora]

I looked around and saw Nate I looked back to the man and said "this is over Mat I'm not your girl anymore you will rot in azkaban and I won't care" I spat.

"It will never be over until he's dead Sora" Mat replied.

I didn't say anything as I turned and walked away. "you know. You would have made a good death eater" Mat said loud enough for Nate to hear.

[Nathan Leigh]

"It doesn't take much to be a death eater. It's rather easy work." I remark to the guy in the cell then say to her. "Hi Sora."

[sorachicora]

"hello Nate" I replied
"oh. your little friend doesn't know what else you can be" Mat remarked with a smirk. I walked back to him and grabed his throat and hissed "you know nothing Liken is dead and I'm moving on. There is nothing I can do except watch over my family"

[Nathan Leigh]

"And her little friend is more powerful than you know, and advises you not to cross him, or Sora." I say, turning on him.

[sorachicora]

Mat smirked and said "I see your father was caught that's a shame"
I gripped his throat tighter so he couldn't talk, but the grabbed my wrist and broke it I pulled away and glared at him.

[Nathan Leigh]

"My father is a fool. And I assure him and I are nothing alike." I reply coolly, "Let me see that, Sora." I say, gesturing to her wrist.

[sorachicora]

"it's ok It's nothing I've gotten worse" I said.

[Nathan Leigh]

I nod. "Okay."

[sorachicora]

"we sould be going" I replyed as two dementors floated past us. One stopped and looked at me.

[Nathan Leigh]

"Yeah," I say as a prickle of pain shoots up my left forearm, the long dormant dark mark active again.
I turn and look behind me to father's cell, seeing him look out at me, a smirk playing on his lips.
"Yes, we really should." I say to her, tearing my gaze away.

[sorachicora]

I looked over and looked at the dementor and took a step back.

[Nathan Leigh]

I look at the dementor and then at her, slightly bemused.

[sorachicora]

I smirked and said "yea lets go" and walked past the dementor.

[Nathan Leigh]

I can feel fathers eyes on me all my way down the corridor.

[sorachicora]

I looked at Nate then glanced back. I saw a man staring at Nate 'his father?' I thought

[Nathan Leigh]

The mark prickles more insistently, I can still feel his eyes on my back, a sweat breaks out on my forehead and it's an effort not to rush back there and demand to know what I want to.

[sorachicora]

I looked back at Nate then grabbed his arm and shimmered us both outside "better now?" I asked

[Nathan Leigh]

"Slightly-..." Pain stabs insistently at my forearm, just a little reminder from him, I'm sure.
I rip back my sleeve and place the other hand on top of the dark mark, a slight sheen of white light surrounding the hand, cooling the pain in the mark. "Better."

[sorachicora]

I stared at the dark mark "so you are" I asked not able to finish.

[Nathan Leigh]

"Death eater. Yes, I am." I sigh. "And I'm damn good at it."

[sorachicora]

"I see" I replied

[Nathan Leigh]

"Yeah." I say. "I'm not ashamed. I'm not going to apologise for what I am. You can either hate me, which I'd understand, or not. It's your call."

[sorachicora]

"I don't hate you" I replied looking at him

[Nathan Leigh]

"Then you have my respect and admiration. Most people would have judged me evil and gone. And I'm many things, but I'm not evil."

[sorachicora]

"yea I'm a very non judgement person"

[Nathan Leigh]

"Good."

[sorachicora]

"yea and I should be use to it"
