49 a tragic day for the dark side 3 (1/2)

When his mind finally clear after his rant, Tom feel the connection between him and his prey was weakening more and more. If this continues, it's would be cut from it and would start to lose what he accomplish until then and would have to start from scratch again!

When his gaze falls where it has been until then, he sees that his diary has vanished to who knows were, he abruptly looks at the snickering boy in front of him.

”You! What have you done to my diary!” Angrily shout him but when he sees and hears the badly faked surprised expression on his face, he would have puck blood if he was possessing his body right now!

”I don't know what you're speaking about.” He never encounters a child that dares to openly mock him! Completely enraged by Alex's act, he turns to the stone face and half shout, half bark.

”~Speak to me Salazar Slytherin, greatest of Hogwarts four!~”

Responding to his call the slab of stone representing the lower jaw of the stone face slowly start to lower while hissing sound could be heard in the background, growing stronger and stronger the more it descends. While he was still turning his back at him, Alex takes out his glass and wear them. At the same time, a beautiful trill sound could be heard, drawing the attention of the ghost on the incoming red bird holding in his talon, a tattered hat.

Dropping his load above him, he freezes for a second before he wears it.

'Will he really give me the... nevermind.' He didn't complete his throughs, that he felt something hard bonk on the top of his head. Taking it off swiftly, he draws the sword of Gryffindor before it vanishes in his storage. While both the hat and Tom were frozen, processing the fact that the blade had just vanished, Alex, in a burst of speed at two times fastest than that of any know man seams to appear in front of the barely appearing Basilisk.

Synchronizing with his master arrival, Sunny bask the snake with a burst of light, making it temporarily blind. Because of the abrupt apparition of the light, the optical nerves of the Basilisk were overloaded, producing an exacerbating pain. By instinct, he tried to get rid of the light imprint still lingering in its eyes by trashing his head on the sides while closing his eyelids.

In doing so, it slams its head without holding back it's strength. The only result the great snake obtain was to momently stunned by the blow open its maw to let out a loud hiss.

Seeing his chance, Alex trusts the already ready rune circle to the higher jaw, activating at the same time. Completely unaware of the threat in front of it's still under the blinding and stunning blow, pains suddenly floods its brain before his conscious flatter and vanish forever.

Unwanting to make a repeat of Harry, the moment he feels his light spear completely formed, he cut the feeding magic and hastily take his arm back. After all, is accumulate knowledge on snakes physiology, he made the thinnest blade he could, hoping to pass between the venom sacks. As he was also unwanting to damage the skin, he only produces one of twenty centimeters in length.

As it's wasn't fully formed when it pierces the flesh and bones, it was only after it enters the brain that the blade gain in width, sectioning a good part inside it, leading to the death of the Basilisk.

Seeing the Basilisk being slain so easily, Tom was flabbergasted, frozen in place, not knowing what to says. While the ghost was frozen, Alex wasn't. With the help of Sunny, the two hid in one of the numerous pipes to start the second part of the plan.

Seating in a comfortable position, he takes the diary from the hands of Sunny, closed his eyes, and sends his consciousness in the Horcrux. This time since the soul shard was already attacking another soul, he attacks it carefully, probing its reaction.

In the central room, Tom feels the invading soul attack him but as his whole attention was holding on the soul he was still processing, he was unable to defend himself. Starting to panic at this, he hastens as much as he could the process. But because of the distance of his real soul shard position, the process practically didn't show any change.

Alex, on the other hand, smiles wildly when he feels Tom's fear and powerlessness. Still cautious, he launches his attack, tearing larges chunks of the soul imprint off. Because he was completely defenseless, Alex was able to complete the process in record time. Without complete forty minutes,s the imprint was completely torn off and Fawkes assist, impressed, as the physical representation of Tom's soul became more and more translucent until he completely vanishes to nothingness.

As he had nearly finished the process, it was only twenty minutes later that Alex finishes to shape and purge the taint out of the soul shard, before the familiar window pop in front of him.
