4. Azkaban & Debt

Now that we were second years, we didn't take the boats to the castle, we took the Thestral drawn carriages. I have to admit, Thestral look cool and menacing. I touched one of them and their body was cold, but soft, it felt weird. Their bat like wings added more charm to them.

'Can you please not touch me?' Asked the Thestral who I was rubbing.

"Sorry, but I couldn't resist." I spoke after casting silencio and notice me not charms around the carriage.

'You can understand me?'

"I can understand any creature, so yes, I can understand you."

'That's quite an impressive ability you have there.'

"It is indeed. It was difficult to control at first, but I've got the hang of it now. Anyway, I should get going, see you later."

'Goodbye.'

I then climbed into the carriage, while ignoring the looks my friends were giving me.

"Lux, what were you talking to?"

"That, my dear Harry, is a Thestral. A magical creature that can only be seen by those who have witnessed another's death and have understood and accepted the concept of death."

Everyone's eyes widened at my explanation.

"Lux, then how are you able to see them?" Hermione asked.

"You know that I like exploring, right?" They all nodded. It is known by a lot of people that I explore the castle whenever I'm bored.

"Well, as the explorer I am, I visited Azkaban. You see, when I went to visit Azkaban, I saw a prisoner getting his soul sucked out of him." It is technically true, but I was the one to suck his soul out.

When I absorb someone's soul, I can see their memories. Most of the memories are... disturbing, to say the least. A lot of the prisoners were Death Wankers, so the things they did to others was unforgivable.

The first time I killed, I didn't feel anything. The man I killed was the worst Death Wanker I could find. He found pleasure in torturing people, then giving them false hope, only to forcefully make his victim watch as he raped the woman of the victims family. Whether it was the victims wife, daughter or sister, he found pleasure about what he did. That man was a real psycho.

Anyway, moving on from the dark thoughts, we arrived at the castle. The great hall was noisy, because all of the talking. I saw Selene at the professors table, she winked at me with a smile.

Sometimes, I really wish that I wasn't a child, because I really want to taste Selene. But I'll have to wait. Patience is a virgin, and when she's ripe, I'll fuck her good!

I then looked at Twinkledore who instantly probed my mind. I wasn't really confident about my Occlumency last year, I did my best to prevent meeting the old fool. Now it's different, so I allowed him to enter, but I only let him read my surface thoughts.

'Why is Professor Dumbledore looking at me like that? Don't tell me he's one of those pedophiles that Uncle Ted warned me about? But I'm a guy. So doesn't that mean that Professor Dumbledore is a gay pedophile? Ew! No wonder he wanted to be Headmaster of Hogwarts, there's plenty of kids here that he can choose from. I must stay away from him. When I used the Resurrection Stone, even his own sister warned me that he was into kids.'

Dumbledork almost fell out of his chair when he heard my thoughts. He quickly gathered himself and tried to enter my mind. Naturally, I looked away from him before he could get a chance.

Soon, the first years gathered and the sorting began. I heard a few names that were mentioned in the series like Colin Creevy. I also saw Luna Lovegood, who looked like she was half asleep while having a pleasant dream. After the sorting and the feast, we all went to bed, except for me.

I quickly threw on high friction resistant clothes, donned Lilith in her jacket form, and ran outside of Hogwarts after leaving a clone. I haven't really explored Azkaban properly, might as do it now.

I arrived after a few seconds and entered Azkaban after turning into a Dementor. I started at the top of Azkaban and slowly made my way down by phasing through the floor. The further I went, the more mad the prisoners were. I even saw Sirius and Bellatrix, I have a plan to get them out later.

I went further down until there were no more prisoners, but I noticed something further down. It was a dark soul fragment, almost like Voldeshorts. When I arrived at the soul fragment, I turned back to human form.

What I saw was an enclosed room. There were no gaps whatsoever, only runes to keep the air fresh and what seemed to be a body in cryosleep. There was also a table with a book on it, along with some tool looking things. I scanned the book before picking it up. The first words I saw brought a smile to face.

"Diary of Ekrizdis Peverell, huh?"

Ekrizdis was the last known owner of Azkaban Island and the Dementors on it. I skimmed through the book, and realised that my ancestor was a madman. This guy was obsessed with the Dark Arts, although they were quite interesting, they were brutal. He even tried to make himself immortal in order to continue his research, alas, he failed. He attempted to make a Horcrux, but it didn't go so well, no he's in a death like state.

The good thing that I discovered was his will. He stated that if he is to pass away, which he isn't, he wants to pass all of his possessions onto the current Lord Peverell in order to continue his research. Funny thing is, Azkaban Island and the Dementors all belong to him.

I looked at the body in cryosleep and spoke.

"I can't believe you would die at the beginning of my second year at Hogwarts, ancestor. Nobody would've expected you to suddenly die out of the blue. Tsk Tsk Tsk, I expected better of you. Oblaan!"

I black mass of magic flew through the body and its soul left the now dead body. That was my new Thu'um, Oblaan, or 'Die'. I grabbed the soul and absorbed it, the Dark Arts he used and his own experience could come in handy.

And what do you know, he was quite the fighter. I absorbed all of his skills and knowledge and placed his unnecessary memories in the same 'Soul Purification' process I do with all my other stolen souls.

Since Ekrizdis used Dark Arts for the majority of his life, he had quite a tainted soul. Although I could just absorb the soul, thanks to Slytherin's family magic, I still wanted to remove the taints.

After the soul purification, I looked around for anything that seemed interesting, but I found nothing. I immediately left Azkaban and went straight to Hogwarts.
