Bella's face lit up in the most twisted grin she could muster as the Dark Lord gave her the one thing she desired more than her own life; a chance to kill side by side with him. She had done so before, but always on account of an order. It filled her with pride that she was able to report such incidents immediately and help him claim his rightful throne. She took one great low bow, "As you wish...my Lord", and rose from the ground to go hunt the damned filthy muggle that dare to insult her Lord.<br/><br/>Turning from him with a cackle she walked away from him, spotting August staring at her. With her evil grin still in tact, she past her. Just as she was shoulder to shoulder with August she remarked coldly, but with excitement in her tone; "August" with a nod. As she walked, her figure began evaporating into nothing but black smoke, laughing menacingly into the burningly chaotic night.<br/><br/>--<br/><br/>She appeared where she had disappeared not too long ago, in the house of Harriet Bogarth, the secretary of the muggle government, but the house was pitch black. Just as suspected, the weakling had fled. And what better place to hide than exactly where you'd think no one would look? Bella knew the governmental building had contacts with the Ministry of Magic, and was therefore cut off from apparation, but the fireplace would do. She grabbed Floo power from within her cloak-pocket, and stepped into the fireplace, throwing the powder to her feet and imagining the desired destination. She felt the suction of the fireplace, the tension on her body as if she was being slung down by a snake, but she enjoyed that feeling. She shot out of the fireplace at the Governmental building, and walked straight to the secretary's office. Darkness. Bella smiled.<br/><br/>"Harriet" she sang softly, gracefully strolling around the dark office. "I know you're here. I don't want to hurt you, we just want to talk." She spoke gently, looking around suspiciously as she did for any sign of movement. She stepped around the desk, nothing. Sighing, she continued to prance around the office.<br/><br/>"Come now Harriet, you don't want this to get ugly now do you?" She asked softly, she could almost smell the filth of muggle blood in the stale, thick air. She spun around quickly.<br/>"Reducto!" She shouted, pointing her wand at the door and it instantly blew to shreds. A gasp. Bella chuckled darkly, knowing exactly where she was. She spun on her heels and walked towards the window. "It's time you own up to your mistakes Harriet, the Dark Lord demands it."<br/><br/>She stopped once she reached the window, and smiled at the darkness of the night beyond it. Then she turned ninety degrees to her right, very slowly. "You know I will find you..." she looked straight at the closet now in front of her, pointing her wand at it. "Don't you Harriet?" A pause followed by a considerable silence.<br/><br/>"Crucio!" She shouted hysterically, hearing a thud beyond the doors of the closet and a laugh filled the silent room. Slowly, opening the doors fully she stared at the limp, writhing body of Harriet Bogarth. "Too easy Harriet, us pure-bloods require more creative ways to conceal ourselves. Imperio!"<br/><br/>Harriet's body went rigid. Bella smiled peacefully down at her, when her expression suddenly became severe. "Get up you filth." and she did. "Fireplace." she pointed with her wand, and Harriet complied. Using the floo network, they arrived back at Harriet Bogarth's place, but as soon as they did, Bella grabbed her arm and apparated straight back to the graveyard.<br/><br/>"Go kneel before the Dark Lord and confess your sins muggle." She spat at her, sniggering lightly to her own amusement as the willing body of the muggle did everything she ordered without complaint. Bella alligned herself with Harriet, and bowed before Voldemort. "My Lord, this is she, the scum." she announced, as Harriet kneeled before the Dark Lord and told him what she had been telling everyone else.<br/><br/>
