8 Deal with the Devil (1/2)
Kai opened his eyes and found himself standing next to his broken car. As soon as Kai had opened his eyes he had felt a pair of eyes glaring at him intently from behind.
Kai turned around and saw a head sized dark grey coloured smoky mass with two bright red glowing eyes.
The eyes were silted, similar to the eyes of a snake. The smoky mass' hate-filled gaze turned to surprise and doubt. It looked like it was wondering why the curse had failed in its task- killing Kai.
The smoky mass growled in anger and frustration” This is the second time that I've failed to kill to kill a weak defenceless human with the Avada Kadavra curse”.
Kai inferred that the smoky mass was, in fact, Voldemort's soul fragment due to the following reasons.
The first was due to the smoky mass that escaped in the first HP book when Professor Quirrell was defeated.
The second reason was that Kai understood that the mass was Voldemort was because of the slited eyes that greatly resembled a snake's.
The third and final reason, that was also the main reason, was how the smoky mass shouted that the Avada Kadavra curse had failed him earlier that night.
Once Kai concluded that the smoky mass in front of him was indeed Voldemort, he understood that he could reach an agreement if he said the right reasons.
Kai wanted Voldemort to teach him magic because Voldemort was the strongest wizard in the Harry Potter series apart from Dumbledore.
But Kai believed otherwise, he theorized that if had his complete soul then he would be able to defeat Dumbledore, alas it would never happen because Voldemort hungered for immortality, so he wouldn't give up on Horcruxes.
Therefore, Kai had to convince Voldemort to teach him and in order to convince him, Kai had to give Voldemort enough benefits with the correct Emperor-like attitude.
He had to give out the benefits that Voldemort desired. The first would be Immortality that Kai could give Voldemort in the form of the vampire physique. The second also related to the vampire physique was the creation of a powerful physical body. The third was an improvement in Voldemort's magic, and the last was changing Voldemort's cause of death. In other words, changing his destiny.
Kai had an ulterior motive when he wanted to create the deal with Voldemort, to make Voldemort his right-hand man, his second in command.
Once Kai had rearranged his thoughts and managed to create reasons to convince Voldemort.At that moment Kai felt like an unscrupulous businessman trying to con a customer into buying a faulty product when Kai and Voldemort would both be earning from the trade.
Kai looked at Voldemort and said with an authoritative tone, (Kai believed that if you want to appear in control you have to radiate confidence, control and authority). ”Voldemort, I assume, can I call you Tom? It's just that Voldemort just doesn't roll off the tongue like Tom does. The reason I found you, Tom, is that I believe we can help each other, which is why I sought you out.
Tom Riddle asked Kai ”how do you know that name, how can you help me and how did the killing curse not harm you?”.
”Tom I will try my best to answer each of your questions, the first being your name- Tom Marvolo Riddle. I know everything about you, who you are, what you have done and what you will do in the future”. Kai leaned in towards the spectre with a mysterious and crazy light in his eyes.
However, Tom didn't seem to believe Kai and doubted his words.
Kai continued ”I know that you are doubting my word, I would as well”. When Kai said that sentence he raised his hand to emphasize with Tom. ”But to make you believe my words I will have to give you some proof.”
Tom's spectral silted eyes narrowed when he heard the rest of Kai's sentence but continued to listen. Kai seemed to be very relaxed and gave off a laid-back aura.
I know for starters that you had a spy giving you the information about the Potters secret hiding place. And he was their secret keeper, I also know that you had him for a year. What was his name again?
Kai put his hand to his forehead in a gesture that seemed like he was recalling the spy's name.
”Ah yes” Kai exclaimed, ”his name was Peter Pettigrew, but you called him Worm Tail”.
