Legacy of Harry Potter

November 1994

Ministry of Magic

When Harry reappeared next, he was facing the building of the ministry of magic. He had wrapped himself around one of the three deathly hallows- the invisibility cloak. In addition, he had also cast a bunch of spells on himself, the likes of which would silence and sound coming from his footsteps or any kind of smell coming from him if by chance a magical creature is present in the ministry. Harry had no wish to make a public appearance now and thus he remained cautious and took no risk.

He then proceeded inside the ministry buildings; the protective wards around the building felt a breeze to him as they were unable to detect his presence.

He continued walking deeper inside the building towards where the prisons were located. In the prison section, he located a lot of recognisable faces- Lucius Malfoy being an important face among them.

He crossed all these prisons and arrived at the cell in which Peter Pettigrew had been locked in. The cell was dimly lit and the environment was not so pleasing.

Peter Pettigrew was curled in small ball as he was lying on a stone platform. Unlike Lucius, he did not have any amenities in the prison cell- no mattress, no chair or table, nothing.

With a flick from Harry's wrist, a spell left his finger as the door of the cell was opened. Quite a high level charm had been used for the locking purpose but nothing which Harry cannot handle.

He took quite steps and moved inside the cell without making any noise. Another spell left his finger- an illusion charm. For any person observing from outside, the scenery which Harry had seen few moments would be visible to them. He also then added few more spells- notice me not spell, spell to prevent any sound from going outside and some distraction charms.

Having made his arrangements, Harry willed and the cloak wrapping around him withdrew.

Even though, Harry's appearance was now visible, Peter who was last in his own thoughts did not notice his appearance.

"How are you doing Peter?" Harry's chilly voice jolted Peter awake from his reverie.

His widened in terror in as he located Harry and he instinctively moved closed to the wall in fright.

"Harry…" he stammered in fright. "Please… let me go…"

It seemed that Peter had not been aware of the recent happenings which had been published in today's newspaper.

Harry chuckled, "Oh! Peter…"

"You know, you are the most important reason for my parents' demise and I have not had my revenge yet," Harry grinned and Peter felt a cold shiver in his spine.

The worse he had been waiting for was death or the deepest part of Azkaban but Harry had come out of syllabus and Peter knew that it was going to be worse than either death or Azkaban.

Harry pointed his index finger and Peter who had already been wriggling close to the wall was struck to it. His hands and legs had been spread in X shape.

"Harry… please…" Peter begged. "I did not do it intentionally. I was afraid… dark lord would have killed me."

Harry paid no heed to these word as another spell left his finger. The spell was a combination of the blood boiling curse and the bone breaking curse.

Peter screamed in sheer pain he felt in a single moment as every bone in his body was crushed and his blood heated making the pain increase exponentially.

But this was only the beginning which Harry was about to inflict on Peter.

Peter had not gotten even a moment of relief when another spell left Harry's finger. A fireball erupted near Peter's right hand and his entire arm to burn. The spell was quite spell as other than charring the arm it did no damage to his arm but he felt the burn… many times more than a normal fire would have made him felt inside his whole arm.

Maybe it was because of Harry's spell or the pain, even if Peter wanted to fall unconscious, he could not do so.

The same spell was repeated for all his remaining limbs as Peter felt the burn from inside out.

Spell after spell left Harry's wand and Peter suffered through all kinds of possible torture for the next hour. Seeing Peter suffer like this, Harry felt a lot of satisfaction. He finally felt that, he might have done some justice for his deceased parents.

He felt no empathy or kindness for Peter Pettigrew and he tortured the wormtail to an extreme.

And then began the hell of a torture Peter would have to go through.

With some satisfaction attained, Harry healed Peter. The next moment, his consciousness entered Peter's mind.

It took short few minutes for Harry to retrieve Peter's memories and when Harry's consciousness returned back, his expression was of a slight shock.

Firstly, he had felt the presence of the dark mark was still present in Peter's mind; albeit it was very thin the connection was still there and this only meant one thing- a portion of Voldemort's soul was still remaining.

Harry then checked Peter's wrist for the dark mark and sure enough, a very faint mark was still present.

But Harry had also gotten an idea of the remaining horcrux.

"Nagini," muttered Harry as he left the cell in search for the snake. And Nagini was present inside the ministry.

(Should I have written a more detailed torture session for Peter or was it fine?)

(Also stay tuned, in the next chapter, we will have a glimpse of Dumbledore's true intention and the story will move towards its climax.)
