Perpetual Darkness

Chapter One: Soul Sucker Salvation

'I always wondered how Sirius managed to survive, 12 years in Azkaban and nothing but poor health. I've barely been here a month and I can feel my mind slipping away. Fair enough, Sirius had his Animagus, but it couldn't of helped that much. The Dementors don't seem to bother me that much anymore. It's the betrayal that is killing me. Constant questions, and no one to ask. There are millions of possibilities, yet none that I could or would believe in. That's the thing about magic, you see, you never truly know what is going on. I know because I've used magic. Used it to the point of no return. I used it for things I believed were right, for things that were for the Light, for Her. Yet nothing, not even she was worth the suffering I'm about to undertake. No one believes me when I tell them, not even my once best friends. I tried to forgive and forget, Hell I tried to kill my self more times than there are seconds in a day. But today… Something is coming. Something unforgivable. Something I deserve or so they think. Something even I, in all my madness, could never hope for. Something I can do nothing about. For today, I lose my Soul.'

"The damp dark halls of Azkaban, the setting to my little tale, a tale I do not know how it will end, nor do I care. For one month I have sat here, staring at the bars in my cell door. Watching my future slip through my fingers like sand. Forgive me I forgot to introduce myself. I am Harry James Potter, sole heir to both the Potter and Black fortunes. Though that means nothing in here. One month ago I lost all semblance of hope, all reason to live passed me by. My Godfather Sirius Black died, I apparently raided the Ministry of Magic, intent on seeing him put to justice, and in my insane ravings pushed him through the veil. Ironically no one recognised the Dark Lord Voldemort, who looked more snake than man, as he portkeyed down into the chamber where his servants were waiting. Nor did anyone see the Obliviate charms that were sent my way, each one condemning me. Damning me to this hellhole. I know my time is almost up but now that I think on it, perhaps it is for the best. No one will demand anything from me when I rot inside a Dementor. No one can question the logic that permanent darkness and unfeeling certainty is a whole new level of torture. But it stands to show, that while I cannot be killed that doesn't mean to say I cannot be contained, stripped of everything but the knowledge that nothing will ever change. Some would maybe even say that… oh! The Dementors are here; I do believe I've ran out of time. How unfortunate. But do stay with me oh faithful voices in my head. You are the only ones who have never abandoned me. Perhaps you will come too when the soul sucker feasts. Four little voices, none with names, none with faces, yet each has their own little story, A story I so long to hear. Who knows perhaps they won't kiss me. Just like I wished Cho Chang had never kissed me that night. A truly horrible experience to say the least! Oh there is an Auror too, perhaps he will add some verbal trash to the pile of insults and hatred that is dumped upon me day after day, the hundred of people who come to me, bearing the Dementors, just to let me know how wrong I am, how evil I am. Nothing new when you have lived with the Dursleys. But they don't know that. Nope! That is my secret for now. Something they will never get out of me. I don't want them to think I am like that fool Riddle now do I? No… that would give them too much information, then they would never even consider that I could be innocent, that they should have guilt to bear for this heinous act. Ah! They finally managed to unlock my cell… really these guards are rather stupid, a simple Avada Kedavra would of sorted that door out in no time! Its not like they are going to need it again, since I am the only person deemed evil enough for the basement level, also known as the Dementor Barracks. Yes today will be quite a.."

"Shut up Potter! You're finally getting let out. There is something waiting upstairs that would love to have you round for dinner."

"Oh Dawlish, you really aught to have come up with something remotely witty by now… honestly!"

"I told you to shut up Potter, Don't understand normal people speech?"

"How do you expect me to shut up if you keep asking me questions?"

"What? Damn it Potter quit trying to look smart. Bull shitting little prick."

"Such vulgar language, and I thought the snakes were rude!"

"Yeah that's right Potter, Confess your sins, we all know you're Voldemorts' little brother!"

'I couldn't help myself you know, it was so ridiculous I just had to laugh, I laughed all the way to the court room on the roof of the Prison,'

" I see it's an open seating eh?"

"Only the best for someone as infamous as you Potter, You know you even look like Voldemort, it's a shame he raped your mother like that. Would have loved to have done her myself. Right little slut your mum, would beg for it from everyone at school, hell even the first years got some action. She wasn't in the slightest bit fussy neither, would do Slytherins, Gryphindors, Teachers, Girls, Hell she even gave the centaurs a good time!"

"Dawlish, if you value your penis I recommend you shut up."

"Oh and just what its Pint size Potter going to do about GYAH!"

'Fool really thought I couldn't bend my leg enough to get him in the balls. Idiot man, ok so I fell over too, he's the one that's hurting.'

"Well, are one of you going to help me up or do you all enjoy seeing a bound man wriggle, You know I could probably charge for this. Especially you Aki, I've heard some Japanese people like the whole bondage thing. I bet your one of them too."

"Do be quiet Potter, I'm trying to hear the minister tell the world all your crimes, there is quite a list of them, Rape, Murder, Paedophilia. My and you call me disgusting eh?"

"Correct me if I am wrong Aki, but how can a Child be a Paedophile? Isn't it just classes as Rape?"

"Good point… Ah well, no harm in adding a little insult to injury eh? I doubt that would reduce your sentence much anyway."

"No, there isn't much that can be done about eternal damnation in a soul sucking shadow now is there?"

"No, not really."

'Oh we reached the cool clasping magic chair, such lazy people, can't even tie their own prisoner down. Pathetic!'

"I Cornelius Fudge, stand before you all to administer the Dementors Kiss upon Harry James Potter."

'Oh! Now that was an excited cheer from the crowd! Do hope they aren't disappointed!'

"Do you have any last requests Potter?"

"I have several actually, I wish it to be known that Cornelius Fudge is a moron. I mean really! Harry James Potter, son of Voldemort. That is pushing it a little now don't you think?"

"Be quiet, and how did you know about that?"

"A rather loud mouthed Auror who shall never have children."

"Err… right, anything else?"

"Yes, do be so kind as to give me one of the upper class Dementors will you? Celebrity status and all that?"

'Hoorah! Fudge is blushing, how… pathetic.'

"Potter I am afraid all our Dementors are economy."

"How unfortunate, perhaps one other request then?"

"Go on…"

'Now how should I put this… be blunt? Oh why not?'

"Get me the fuck out of this chair!"

"Gladly, you shall be in the mortuary in a matter of minutes, well your body will, I believe your soul will be resting in the belly of a Dementor… Wetherby? Do Dementors have stomachs?"

'Oh! Percy is still trailing after the minister… how cute. Like a love struck puppy.'

"I don't know sir."

"Wetherby you're an Idiot. Well Potter this is it eh?"

"Not quite yet… Percy! Fudge will never get your name right and he will never want to have sex with you!"

'Yay! It seems my estimation was correct. Thank you voices!'

"Rot in Hell Potter!"

"Sorry Percy, No can do, I have a Dinner date with a Dementor. Perhaps some other time, when Fudge works out your surname, and you're not a spineless virgin eh?"

"Clever Potter, But words won't do you much good where you're going!"

"And where would that be Percy?"

"Enough!"

'Uh oh, Fudgies mad…'

"Aki, Bring in the Dementor!"

"Yes Sir!"

'Hmmm… I do believe the end is here everyone. It has been so good talking to you all. Perhaps I will hear you again someday. Well, Goodbye for now, oh faithful Voices in my head.'

"Excellent Aki, Dementor, Kiss him, and draw it out a bit eh?"

'Ah, it sounds so much like parceltoungue, shame it isn't though. Ruddy hissing idiots can't even get that right!'

"Well everyone, do feel free to take pictures once the Dementors leave. I will even pose if you like?"

'Ha I can imagine the headings now, 'Fudge Sends Saviour to Soul Suckers!' hmph… in my dreams!'

"Goodnight Harry James Potter, Enjoy the Darkness!"

'Oh… Dementors do have faces… I wonder if anyone has ever kissed it back… might as well break another record eh?'

"Err… Wetherby, is Potter actually kissing that Dementor?"

"I… I do believe he is sir. Disgusting little freak."

"Yes, quite right Wetherby."

'hmmm… that was unusual…much drier than Cho… though it was rather cold. Ah well, Hey wait… I should be soulless by now, I don't think anyone has ever watched their soul be sucked…hmm… wait… Voices? Voices?! Oh no! They weren't voices in my head! That was another soul! Wait… if I just lie here, maybe they'll think I'm dead. Damn their coming to check… um… hold my breath that's it!'

"Minister! He's still alive?!"

"Of course he is, he's just soulless!"

"No, I mean, he's still warm! He kept his soul!"

"Preposterous, I sat here and watched his soul be taken… well just to be safe. Dementor! Keep at it, there is more in there for you yet!"

'Oh, Bother… well perhaps I shall be able to see the soul who went before me… but… there were four voices plus my own… does that mean… that there were four extra souls?'

"Yes! Suck him dry!! Wait there was two souls… Three? Four?! FIVE!!! Wetherby what the bloody hell is going on! No one has more than one soul! This is some trick the Mini-Voldie cooked up! Damn it Check him again!"

"He's cold this time sir! Nothing, dead eyes, the lot! He's a goner!"

"Oh thank god for that!"
