(Y/N)s P.O.V.

I take one step through the door into the Slytherin Common room and am swept of my feet by Draco causing me to almost drop the egg. "Careful. This egg will deafen you if you open it out of water. Jeez." I scold playfully.
"Well sorry but come on. There's a surprise inside." Draco smiles cheekily and drags me along. We enter the Common room and I'm swarmed by cheering students from first years to seventh years. "I'm taken by surprise at first but I soon start laughing and smiling.
"That was amazing." Says one.
"I've never seen anything like it." Says another.
""How did you do that?" Asks another.
I dwell in the nice comments and questions for a while before flicking my hand. A ring of sharp ice encircles me and everyone steps back. "Thank you all so much, but I need to get to my room. I have to put the egg somewhere safe. So if you'll excuse me." I nod to the surrounding Slytherins and split to make a path for me to get to the portrait of my mother.
As I walk closer Pansy steps out infront of me with her hands on her hips. "Parkinson." I growl.
"Cheater." She hisses.
"Oh so I'm a cheater now. Hm. How is that possible?" I say with fake sweetness.
"It's impossible to do what you did. You had outside help. You cheated." She growls and steps closer.
"No I just have a natural talent unlike you." I smile at her before snapping my fingers. Snakes appear from the shadows and sit in a circle around Pansy. They sway from side to side and Pansy pales.
"(L/N). Stop this. Please." She pleaded but I just stand there and watch as the snakes begin to emit a strange light.
"(L/N)! PLEASE!" Pansy screams frantically. Once again I ignore her but this time I chuckle slightly.
The other Slytherins watch me warily and Pansy in horror. The snakes continue the ritual and I smile cruelly. I would normally have stopped the ritual by now but this time I want to continue with it. I want to see Pansy get tortured. I want her to feel the pain I have felt all these years. I want her to suffer.
The snakes hiss and Pansy lets out a pained scream. She crumples to the ground screaming more and more. She pleaded for me to stop but I just stood there and watched. I was enjoying this. I loved seeing her suffer. She let out another scream this time it was louder and it echoed through the common room. I knew others from around the school heard but I didn't care. I was savoring this moment. The moment where Pansy Parkinson is tortured beyond any other torture. It was worse than the Cruciatus curse. This was the sacred ritual of The Shadow Lady. It made people feel excruciating pain while having their worst fears flash before their eyes. It often made people commit suicide or beg for death afterwards. But that is only if the Ritual gets completed.
"(Y/N)?" Draco asks from behind me and I turn to face him. When I see his face something inside me snaps and I feel as if I'd just broken out of a trance.
When I hear Pansy scream I turn quickly and gasp. "What have I done." I whisper. I growl quickly and the snakes disappear. Pansy lay crumpled and whimpering on the ground infront of me. the golden egg felt heavy in my hands as I stare with wide eyes at the tortured girl on the ground. That's when I run. I leap over Pansy and into the portrait of my mother I don't stop running till I get to my room. I put the egg on my bed and I leap through the window and shift into an eagle.
Something is wrong with me. I'm becoming a monster.
