Edina sat in the living room area, not bothering to look at any mirrors; she doesn’t want to see herself old and wrinkly. The Polyjuice potion she token earlier will be wearing off in the next hour or so, and she was wondering when that Auror will hurry up and show. She didn’t want to change right before his eyes. Her boss, the current Minister of Magic, Louis Galloway, wanted this non werewolf, Aries Ashford killed. He really didn’t give a reason why and she didn’t ask.

Edina sat up from her seat and made her way to the kitchen, she needed to find an object that would knock the man unconscious for a while, and then she would turn him into a frog, until she gets back to the house. Once she gets there she can torture the man for a while or a few days, it all depends on how he taste. Edina spotted a large heavy looking pan that was sitting on the stove, this shall do, Edina thought to herself, she’ll summon later when the time comes.
------------
Young Aries Ashford entered the headquarters of the Aurors in the Ministry of Magic. He said his hellos to his fellow comrades that he saw when he made his way to his desk. He took off his cloak and placed it on the back of his chair. He sat down in his seat; he had a stack of files on his desk, pictures of his three year old nephew Jonathan all over his desk.

“Ashford in my office now,” called Sylvester Savage, Aries’s boss.
A few of the Aurors looked at Harry with pity, it seemed like Savage was not in a good mood today, and when he’s not in a good mood, and everyone would be stuck with a ridicules assignments throughout the day. Aries sighed as he pushed up off his chair, he gradually made his way to the door, and he opened it up, and closed it silently behind him. Sylvester Savage, a fifty-nine year old wizard, already with a head full of grey hairs. He had on a navy blue cloak with silver clasp; the walls in his office were all black, besides one that was of clear glass, so he could look over his men. His walls were adorned with the pictures of the men and women he captured and the ones that were the most wanted.

“Have a seat Mr. Ashford,” Savage sounded calmer now, but that wasn’t going to stop Harry from being cautious. Harry sat in the right seat in front of Savage’s desk. “I have an assignment for you. It seems like there are screams being heard coming from a house down in the Ripon.” He looked down at his note pad in front of him. “A Mrs. Edina Edwards will be waiting for you at her home; she’s allowing you to floo to her home, all you need to say is Edwards’s family home. You are dismissed.”

“Thank you sir,” Aries nodded to his boss. He walked out the office, making sure the door was tightly shut behind him. Harry turned to his comrades, “He’s in a good mood.” They let out a sigh of relief and went back to chatting or their desk. Aries grabbed his cloak, and a note pad and quill from the top draw of his desk. He slipped on his cloak as he made his way to the far end of the room that held the fireplaces; he pocketed the note pad and quill into his pocket.

He grabbed a handful of floo, “Edwards’s family home.” When finally opened his eyes, he looked out what must be the living room. The walls were decorated with pictures and paintings, brown furniture, a dark wooden rocker with a cream white padding. On the rocker sat an elderly woman, possibly in her mid to late eighties; she had on a purple long sleeve dress robe, her grey hair hung limply over her shoulders. She went to stand up, “Please stay in your seat Mrs. Edwards.” Aries stepped out of the fireplace, and sat down on the brown table chair. “How are you this morning Mrs. Edwards?”

Mrs. Edwards smiled kindly at Aries, “I’m doing just fine Mr. Ashford. How are you?”

“I’m doing okay,” Aries smiled back at Mrs. Edwards. “Do you need anything before we start?”

“Oh no thank you, I’m just fine, thank you for asking,” she replied sweetly.

“Okay,” Aries pulled out his quill and note pad. “Can you tell me when you start hearing the screaming?”

Mrs. Edwards nodded, “It started about a week ago on a Tuesday, late at night.”

“Did you see anyone or anything coming and going to the area you heard the screams coming from?”

“No.”

“Is there anything you would like to add before I check the house out?”

“There is, last week there was only one person screaming, but just two days ago, I heard two screaming, when one stopped another would scream.”

Aries nodded his head, he frowned, how she would know that there are two people in that house, it still could be the same person, if there were a person. “Mrs. Edwards, how do you know that there are two people?”

Mrs. Edwards frowned, curses, did she just blew her cover? “Different tones of their screaming, I could be wrong though.”

Aries once again nodded his head, that made sense, though he was still a little suspicious. “Would you mind showing me which house you hear the screams coming from?”

Mrs. Edwards pushed herself up from her rocker; Aries stood up also and followed behind Mrs. Edwards. She opened the front door; Aries walked past her, and stepped on the ground.
--------
Edina watched Aries step out of the house, she mumbled the summoning charm, and felt the pot go straight into her hands, she looked down at her hands, it was back to normal, young and tight. It didn’t bother her, he’s hers now. She lifted the pan up high, and swung it hard as she could to the back of his head. He felled to the ground, his mouth opened slightly, eyes closed. A smile graced her lips; she mumbled the spell to turn him into a frog. She pocketed him inside of her dress robe, and returned the pan back to the stove.

[G. Novella]

Idella arrived at the torture area in Ripon. It was a large cellar looking area, with no windows. The cellar was just a block away away from the Ripon racetrack. The screams were drowned out by the noise from the track. Edina had yet to show up. Not that Idella minded. She disliked the other woman, knowing Louis lusted for her. That, and the woman's delight in torture made her detestable for Idella. She took a seat, and waited for Edina. If there was one good thing about Edina, it was that she did the dirty work, and Idella could just take over when Edina instructed her.

[deathrosehunter]

Edina walked into the house and made her way to the backroom, she opend the cellar and slowly made her way down the steps. When she got to the fifth step she spotted Idella sitting, Edina rolled her eyes, of course beauty queen would just sit there and do nothing.

She withdrew Aries from her pocket and threw him down the stairs, "Make him back to his regular self and chain him, don't forget to remove his wand, along with the quill in his right pocket."

Edina didn't bother looking at Idella when she got to the end of the staircase, she turned right and made her way to the end of the hall. She peered in to the cell that held a young girl, her hands were chained behind her back, as she was in the sitting postion. Her head was to the side, her chocolate brown covered half her face, Edina saw that girl was still asleep.

She opened the cell door, the girl eyes snapped opened, she tried to move back, but she had no where to go. "You can't move anymore honey," Edina let out a dark chuckle. She grabbed a whip from the silver tray that was bolted into the wall.

Edina grabbed the girl by her neck and moved her body to the right so she can unchain her. Once that was over, she heaved her up, and chained her up again, this time the girl was facing the wall. Edina removed the blood stained sheet from her body, the scars on the girl back was slowly fading and Edina didn't like that. "I hope you are ready for some new scars baby doll."

Edina unrolled the whip, and cracked it along the wall, she saw the girl shiver in fear, that caused Edina to smile, she loved that. She swung the whip behind her and swung with all her might forward, only a few speckles of blood came out and Edina pouted.

She struck the girl six more times when the blood started to flow freely, the girl was screaming out in pain, and her legs was shaking. Edina placed the whip back on the tray, and sautered her way to the girl. She knilt a little, grabbing the girl by the waist and pulling her body close to her face. Edina stuck her tongue out and began to lick the blood of the girl body.

[G. Novella]

Idella could hear the screams of the girl, and said nothing. Instead, she removed her wand, and turned the man back. He was passed out. His head was bruised. The first of many. Within minutes, Edina would come downstairs, and start her routine. She'd expect Idella to play along, expect her to be as ruthless when her turn came. Idella didn't tremble as she chained the man, while those thoughts roamed in her head. She felt the man stir slightly. He was handsome enough, but he'd soon be ruined by Edina.

"He's ready!" she called out to Edina, as she removed the wand and quill from his pockets.

[deathrosehunter]

Edina heared Idella call out to her that Aries was ready, she gave the girl back one last lick, savoring her taste. She closed the door behind her, and made her way down the hall, the sound of the other tortuer victims screams rang in her ear. She loved that sound, she would never get tired of hearing, she slowed down her pace, as she caught sight of Idella waiting outside of his cell.

"Go clean the girl up, and feed her," Edina spat. "Don't think you won't be getting your pretty little hands dirty today Ward."

Edina walked inside the cell and saw Aries open up his eyes slowly. "Who are you? Where am I?"

"I'm your worst nightmare," Edina growled right before she lunged at him, tearing off his shirt and bottoms. "Let's have some fun shall we."
-------
Marisol felt faint, she threw up on herself when she felt her captor tongue along her back, licking her wounds. A scream came from down the hall, it was new, she never heard it before. Must be another victim, Marisol thought to herself, she been here the longest, she saw or heard new people coming in and a few days later she will see them leave dead passed her cellar. Marisol often wondered when it was her time to go, leaving out the back door. Many times Marisol hoped that they would finally kill her, she couldn't take this life anymore, six months was too long for her liking.

[G. Novella]

Idella moved to the back room where the girl was. She was some pet of Edina's. Without a second thought, she grabbed the bucket of water and towel, and moved to sit beside the girl. She looked thin, weak and bloody. Idella didn't say anything, but the girl haunted her. She could hear this one screaming in her dreams. It was probably because she was one of the longest hear. Methodically, she removed the sponge, and began to gently wipe away the girl's blood and grime.

[deathrosehunter]

Marisol shivered, it stung a little, but she kept her mouth shut, if she said something she might rub her body hard, making the wounds worst than it already is.

[G. Novella]

Idella watched the girl shiver, and said nothing. She remembered when Edina had encouraged her to lick the girl's blood. She resisted shuddering, and instead lifted the limp, thin girl back to her chains. Once she was shackled, she left the room and returned with a hot bun and some water. Slowly she moved the bun by the girl's face, waiting for her to eat.

[deathrosehunter]

Marisol eyed the bun, it could be posion. I want to die anyway, might as well eat it, Marisol thought to herself, she opened her mouth wide and bite down into the hot bun. It waa good, and began to chow down on yhe bun. Once she finished she looked up at the girl, "Thank you," her voice broke a little.

[G. Novella]

Idella didn't say anything, but she stiffly nodded. She moved the water to the girl's lips. There was no way she could help the girl, even if her dreams were plagued with the girl's screams.

[deathrosehunter]

Marisol gulped down the water until her belly felt full, Merlin's know how long it would be until her next meal.

"Idella get in her now," a woman screamed, it sounded further down the hall.
----------

Edina unchained Aries, his body grumbled to the ground, all bloody, he was barely breathing. Her face was covered in blood, his blood was far more tastier than the girl.

[G. Novella]

Idella sighed. She'd hoped to delar her time. Without turning to look at the girl, she walked back into the man's cellar. He was beated and bloody, and there was Edina, feeding on the blood. Someone else might have retched. Idella simply stared through the scene, used to it.

"What now?" she asked in her calm, quiet voice.

[deathrosehunter]

"Go ahead and feed off him," Edina smiled at her, licking the blood off her lips. "When your finish wash him up and give him a blanket. I watch you feed off him, don't take that much."

[G. Novella]

Idella froze. She hated this part. Why Edina insisted, she didn't know. She approached the body of the male, which was now naked and bloody. She was horrified to see he was stirring, trying to regain consciousness. She hoped he didn't. It was worse when they begged. Slowly, she lowered her mouth to his neck, and began licking at the blood, feeling sick as she did.

[deathrosehunter]

Edina watched Idella feed off Aries, it waa fun to watch the beauty queen get dirty. Edina walked towards Idella and pulled her up by her hair, "Enough, get him eashed up and move him to the girl cell. She eanted her meals to be together. She grabbed a bronze brass knuckles from the silver tray and punched Aries in the right temple.

[G. Novella]

Idella winced as Edina pulled her up. It hurt, but she didn't cry out. She flinched when Edina hit the man, then she levitated the man up and out of the room to clean him up.

[deathrosehunter]

Marisol moved a little in her cell, trying to find a comfortable spot, but so far she couldn't find one. Marisol watched the woman called Idella levitate a bloody man into the washroom infront of her cell. Marisol shaked her hair infront of her face, she didn't want to see the man.

[G. Novella]

Idella gave the man the same treatment she'd given the girl, and then shackled him. Once he was secure, she checked his breathing. He was still alive, but not conscious. Unsure what to do now, she waited. It was almost six-thirty. She'd leave if Edina didn't need anything more. The other woman would be here all night knowing her.

[deathrosehunter]

"Idella," Edina yelled from the top of the stairs. "You have a two hour break." Edina walked back into the small room and closed it behind her. She stripped off her dress robes and walked into the bathroom. Laying in the tub was blood from her sex slave she killed an hour earlier, the blood wasn't clotted just yet. She stepped in and shuvered with excitement. She leaned back and moved some of the blood up to her chest and neck. She grabbed a handful and poured it into her hair.

[G. Novella]

With those words, Idella gave a sigh of relief and apparated away to Diagon Alley. She had just enough time to freshen up before Louis arrived. She smiled inwardly at meeting Louis.

[deathrosehunter]

Edina sat in the kitchen eating her dinner, the cellar door was open so she could hear the screams from the slaves below. She bite into her chicken dinner, savoring the taste, she used some of the blood she had left over to season it.

[G. Novella]

Idella arrived at the cellar, walking lifelessly. She'd never felt more alone in her life. Like a robot, she mechanically moved past the prisoners, not hearing anything, not feeling anything. She finally arrived in the kitchen where Edina sat, eating a sandwich. Idella didn't know what to do, so finally she said, "I-I-I do-don't work here anymore," and then burst into sobs.

[deathrosehunter]

Edina coughed, Louis fired his precious beauty queen, it must be the end of the world! "Err... stop crying, it's bloody annoying. I don't know why you crying for, you didn't want to be here in the first place."

[G. Novella]

"I-I don't have anywhere to go," cried Idella, "He left me, everything I had was his! All because he grew tired of me! What am I supposed to do now? Where will I go?" She tried wiping her eyes, but the tears still flowed.

[deathrosehunter]

Edina smirked, oh this is too good to be true. "Why don't you sit down beauty queen. Louis might of fired you, but I'm the one in charge of the torturing, he just wants the killing. You can move in if you like, take a room upstairs." A plan forming into Edinas head, Idella would make a good slave.

[G. Novella]

"What?" asked Idella, her sobs stopping in her shock. "You-You want me around? Why?"

[deathrosehunter]

Edina shrugged her shoulders, "Who else is going to wash and feed them? Besides, you have nowhere else to go." Edina stood up from her seat and walked behind Idella, resting her hands on her shoulders, laying her cheek in Idellas hair. "You can stay here as long as you want, just do your job and everything will be okay."

[G. Novella]

"D-Do you mean it?" asked Idella, looking at Edina with wide eyes, unable to believe her luck! The woman she'd hated was being so nice. She was surprised by the woman's show of affection, and allowed herself to relax, wanting to believe the woman cared.

[deathrosehunter]

Edina smiled, "Of course I mean, I wouldn't of made the offer if I didn't mean it." Before you go to bed check on my favorites would you." Edina kissed Idellas check lightly and walked out the room. Poor naive Idella.
---------
Marisol looked over at the man, he finally woken up. "Do you know where we are?"

"No," replied Marisol, stretching out her stiff legs, and began to bounce them up and down so they won't grow numb.

"How long have you been here?" He questioned.

"About six months or so," Marisol answered.
