James had been murdered and they arrested me that night...me. I laughed. I laughed and laughed. Peter was missing of course he had not done it, that little bastard. That treacherous little rat bastard. I laughed in my cell. They wondered how I laughed with dementors at the door. The idiots did not realize it wasn't mirth. I spent the night in the darkest corner of my cell laughing.
My James, he was dead and everyone thought it had been me that sold them out to that bastard snake. It was just so completely asinine. I fought so much against him, against people like my disgusting pureblood family.
As the night went on I almost started believing I were capable of selling his life to Voldemort. That I would betray him and Lily...and their child. Little Harry, my own goddamn G-dchild. I almost started believing I was just like my vicious family that was so damned cowardly.
In the morning, they came for me. I was to have a trial, they explained as they dragged me down the caves within Azkaban. I made myself limp, I knew I would be hung to dry and I was not going to make it easy. In the crevices of the walls other prisoners screamed and cried. I wondered how many were innocent like me.
As we neared the exit I saw Bellatrix. She came to the cell bars keeping her in and reached for me, to grab my prison garb. Her hands were dirty and it almost made me smile how low she'd fallen. If she'd been in her right mind anymore, she might have cared. By then I think she embraced it. "Join the right side, have you, cousin?" She asked, almost in a sing-song voice as she smiled and clutched at my clothing. "Almost worthy of the Black name. Shame you landed here, you'd have been worthy had you not been caught." She added gleefully and I knew there was no chance I would be set free.
The trial was short, naturally. They locked me in a torture device of some sort...a cage. I was obviously too dangerous to be with people. Person after person went on about my...virtues. Snivellus, the vile bastard...he testified. How I was murderous and got Lily killed. How a known bloody deatheater was free to testify against me as if he had all the authority in the world I didn't think I'd ever know. There was so much no one knew back then.
The guard who brought me in testified how Bellatrix, a proud deatheater, had basically said I joined Voldemort's ranks. That I did it to appease my estranged family. There wasn't enough money in the world to have me sell out my James! He was a brother! Certainly they didn't think I wanted the love of those disgusting bastards.
Without allowing me to say a word, they announced me guilty and took me screaming back to the cell where I would die. That dismal, repulsive place. No one left and everyone there was put in their grave to slowly die.
