บท 30: Arthur X Basilisk and Tom Riddle
- I'm sorry, Arthur - He saw her eyes watching him as they closed slowly, Arthur heard Tom Riddle laughing beside him, the Basilisk crawling in the other, Harry, Hermione, and Ron shouting a few words, but the boy only had Hope's attention on the floor .
Arthur walked up to Hope, he could hear Tom Riddle laughing pointing his wand towards the boy, on the other side of the Basilica waiting for his orders, the boy took the little snake in his lap and walked to a snake statue.
- Where do you think you're going ?! - Tom asked pointing the wand at him, Arthur ignored and walked to put Ginny and Hope leaning against the statue, when he turned, Tom can see the anger in his eyes, he put a smile on his face.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione approached Ginny to see if she was all right, but they kept the guard up for Tom and the Basilisk.
- You three face the snake, I'll kill Tom Riddle - Arthur said with such anger that his teeth seemed to break, the spots appeared around his body, regaining his vigor, the boy felt stronger and stronger and smiled as he looked at his opponent.
- Basilisk attack! Tom spoke in the tongue of the snakes, Arthur did not want to hear about the snake, his eyes were just on Tom Riddle.
He stepped forward from the snake easily and ran ahead of Tom Riddle casting his spells, the two exchanged several blows, the fight was fiercer than before, Arthur did not care to defend himself from the attacks, even with some wounds he continued to bombing Tom, anger had taken over him, along with his will to kill, in the middle of the fight he heard a pounding Phoenix sound, "Foux thought the boy", he has to continue to hold Tom, until the trio defeats the Basilisk and destroy the Horcrux.
- Bombard! Arthur cried when an explosion struck Tom Riddle, this was one of his strongest spells, the smoke covered the man and Arthur did not know if he had won, but Tom came out of the smoke with several wounds closing.
- Good foolishness, but I think you've forgotten one thing ... I'm immortal - Tom Riddle laughed as his last wound closed, he was in full strength, unlike Arthur who every second felt more tired, "Not even with my power can I reach his level?" Arthur thought pointing his wand at Tom, "That's my best spell!"
- Darkfire! - Arthur shouted as a 3-meter-long snake of flame advanced over Tom, this was his strongest spell and it was with him that the boy defeated Aragog.
- Want to play fire? All right then, Partis temporus! Tom countered, throwing a powerful wave of fire swallowing the snake completely.
Arthur had to jump into the water, but even so it burned, he could not believe in Tom Riddle's strength, he is invincible, "no matter how hard I try, it's just a waste of time" thought the boy, his marks left the his body, leaving him only with a giant tiredness, he tried to get up, but Tom was faster and stepped on his chest.
- You're so pathetic, let's hear how you scream, crucio! - said Tom Riddle, causing great pain in Arthur's body, the boy can only scream without doing anything.
- Let's go! Where is the courage I heard? Crucio - Said Tom laughing, Arthur just squirmed on the floor, "Why is he so powerful even though I have so much power with the brand?" The boy was in pain.
Arthur was about to give up when Dumbledore's voice popped into his mind.
"A strong wizard is not the one with the best wand or the best spell, but he who uses his intelligence to break all the barriers." Arthur remembered Dumbledore's words at the dueling club, he looked around and saw that he was surrounded of water.
- How long will we continue this game? You know you'll never defeat me - Tom said with his foot on top of Arthur.
- Do you know what your problem is? You talk too much, Aqua Eructo! - Arthur shouted controlling the wave, he circled Tom with water and lifted him up to the ceiling, he saw the boy trying to get rid of the water in vain, until an hour he stopped moving, was when Arthur finished his spell knocking Tom on the floor.
He reached the body and removed his wand, Tom had woken up again, he would be immortal until the Horcrux was destroyed, the anger was stamped on the boy's eyes.
- Didn't you want to play with me to death? So now it's my turn ... Diffindo! - Arthur cried while several cuts appeared on Tom's body, he heard the boy complaining of pain, Arthur wanted to continue, he wanted to return all the pain he felt, all the pain he did to Hope, but it was not a sick monster like Voldemort.
Before Arthur left to help the trio, he arrested Tom Riddle on ropes as he did with Ron, he ran until he saw the situation.
The trio looked finished, Harry was holding the gryffindor sword in his hand, Hermione had only a few body wounds, Ron had his head bleeding, but the Basilisk was worse than them, he was blind and had cuts on his body .
Arthur appeared on the side of the trio, he was tired of more, the black mark increased its strength twice as much, only that it took its force 4 times more, he could only use it in a spell and not in a battle.
- Darkfire! - Arthur shouted participating in the fight, he conjured a tiger of fire that hit the Basilisk launching him to the giant statue.
The longer Arthur was delayed, the greater Hope's chance to die, he had no more time for futile battles.
Harry climbed up on the stone statue, the Basilisk awakened from the shock and headed for the boy.
- Stop it! Arthur shouted, freezing the Basilisk for a while, the longer the aninal was, the shorter it was, but it was enough for Harry to sink his sword into the snake's throat.
They managed to win, but, Arthur was more worried it was with Hope, he ran to the Basilisk and removed the prey from the snake, Arthur saw Tom Riddle from far, untied the ropes that were holding him.
The boy picked up the diary laying on the ground and waited for him with the prey, he could hear Tom screaming in pain, but he continued to stick the tooth deeper into the diary until he crossed to the other side.
- It's over - Arthur thought, sitting on the floor, his vision clouded, the boy almost fainting from exhaustion.
- Who are you? - Asked Harry walking towards him, he can see Ron holding Ginny and Hermione behind him.
- My name is Zero - Arthur said thickly, he would not speak his real name because it would not make sense to wear a mask.
- Is Zero really your name? You seem to be our age, you study at Hogwarts right? - Hermione seemed to want to know about him, Arthur just wanted to get out of there as quickly as possible.
- You just need to know that I'm on your side - the boy said as he took the wounded snake in his hand, Tom taught him several things, one of them is the art of apparating, no wizard can apparate at Hogwarts, only Dumbledore, but you agreed to release that to Arthur - We will still meet often.
Arthur took one last look at the trio, they were looking at him confused, the boy could not take it anymore apparated before he passed out on the spot.
