Title: "Wands"
House: Slytherin
Word Count: 100
Characters: Lucius Malfoy
Challenge: Liquid
Author's Notes: I've always wondered what happened to James' and Lily's wands after Godric's Hollow.
“Pettigrew!”
No answer. Only the baby wailing.
The house burned, still so heavily protected, the nearest Apparition point was a half-mile away. Malfoy descended the stairs, intent on closing that distance before the Ministry - or Dumbledore's men - arrived.
Downstairs, another dead body. Expressionless eyes stared out under black hair matted down with blood and rain. Malfoy noticed the lifeless hand, its clenched fingers. In a mock bow, he bent, pocketing the wand like he had the Mudblood's.
He'll soon leave Azkaban, share this secret with his Master, regain his place . . . watch Potter fall, cursed by his parents' own wands.
