“Crucio!”
It was the word of the evening, whispered, laughed, shouted to the heavens… It rang through the night to the delight of the foursome clad in black, hiding in the shadows.
A pair in the middle- they certainly seemed incapable of hearing the beauty of the spoken word. Maybe it’s moon madness that’s captured their attention, as the light of the full moon shines in on them. They were too lost in their own cries in the night. They writhed about, squirming, minds twirling…
How long had it been?
No one seemed to care. The pair danced to the music of the band in the shadows-
“Crucio! (A laugh) Crucio! (Pause for effect) Crucio! Crucio! Crucio!)”
Two in black are carried away by the excitement, clinging to each other, full of twisted laughter and even more twisted passion.
A shout! The door bursts open, and the dance is done. They lead the band away, and carry off the pair. A scandal, for sure. They’ll never speak of it again; the band made sure of that.
