Haydn and Ivan were waiting for him, their dates amusing Daphne who was giving him a quizzical glance.

….

"Kruger had every intention of getting 'lucky' with Arianna tonight." Aries said far more calmly than he felt. "Even if he had to rape her." That drew anger from both of them and like two silent shadows they went after Kruger.

It wasn't hard to entice him from his friends, a small compulsion charm convinced him to follow. Aries led him to the very classroom Kruger had intended to use for his deed tonight.

He conjured a chair and thick black ropes to tie him to the door. Black chains extended from the walls, keeping his arms out from his body.

Haydn stood outside as a watch and Ivan inside to make sure Aries did not kill him. A wave of his cancelled the compulsion, and as expected Kruger freaked.

A silencing charm ended the annoying rant and Aries took a seat in front of the boy.

"I'm not sure what has gotten into you Kruger." Aries began. "Perhaps it's been the comradery of our school during this competition or perhaps it's been that my attention has been toward more interesting pursuits, or maybe it's because we're surrounded by wizards that would rather report the normal actions of our school than chalk it up to boys being boys." Kruger had begun to shake at the cold tone of the Black heir.

The green specks in his eyes glowed dark and dangerous. Aries had pulled a knife from his boot and was cleaning the tips of his fingernails.

"I'm not sure what it was, but somewhere along the line you've forgotten just who I am.'

"I can see into your mind Kruger, there is not a secret you can keep from me. I know that you intentionally got Arianna drunk. I know you took advantage of her jealousy. I know the very intentions that you had for this room tonight."

"But what you forgot, is that regardless of her feelings right now, Arianna de Cordova is under my protection. And you intended her harm. You intended to rape her if she did not give in willingly, and trust me, she had no intention of it."

"You were nothing more than a tool she had hoped to use to win me back. I feel for you, to be used like that is harsh. But I can't let what you would have done slide. I have a reputation to uphold."

"Please don't kill me!" Kruger begged.

"Kill you?" Aries said with a cold laugh. "I won't kill you. No, I'm going to hurt you, the way everyone thought I was going to hurt Diggory. I'm going to hurt you in ways unimaginable, and then I'm going to leave you."

"Don't worry, Professor von Reich will find you. He'll heal you. You'll live for one purpose only: to remind your friends what happens to those that mess with Aries Black and those under my protection." Aries moved quick as lightning and slammed his knife into the boy's knee.

"Oh, that was a close one. I almost got the artery." He conjured another knife and stabbed his hand.

Tears were already falling down Kruger's face, but Aries was just getting started. Another knife was imbedded in his shoulder.

"You have to understand, I'm no monster. I don't enjoy this, as others do. But you left me no choice. I have to do this. I have to make an example of you or others will think me weak. I can't afford that." Another knife through the other hand and the boy's screams echoed off the walls.

"Please. . ." Kruger cried. "Please stop."

Aries flicked his wand into his wrist and pointed it at Kruger. "No. Crucio." Power ripped through his body, into his wand, and struck the boy.

He writhed against the ropes and chains, and blood dribbled down his lips as he screamed his voice hoarse before Aries finally relented.

A clinch of his fist conjured his Roman gauntlets as he threw punch after punch into Kruger's face.

Suddenly the door was wrenched open and Aries turned around to lock eyes with Daphne, Haydn trying to pull her back outside.

She looked from him to Kruger and then back. Aries knew he was covered in the boys blood, but made no attempt to hide what he had done.

This was a crucial moment, and he wanted the girls true reaction.

"What did he do?" she asked simply.

"He planned to rape Arianna."

"Will you kill him?"

"No."

"Why not?" Daphne had cocked her head to the side at that.

"Killing him would only lessen the sentence. We need him to talk. To be an example."

"Good." Her answer surprised him, but it was a welcome one. "Hurry up, I don't want to have to dance with Draco." Aries could not hide the smile as he turned back to Kruger.

"You heard the lady." Aries said, brandishing his wand again. "Crucio." Aries cracked his knuckles. Kruger was alive, but barely and Aries had a few last tricks he wanted to use.

"No doubt you enjoyed the Second Task, but let's see if you can stand it as well as Diggory did." He reached out his hand, slowing closing his fist, and Kruger began to choke.

It wasn't until Aries was sure he was about to pass out did he release him. He did not wait for Kruger to get his breath back before a torrent of lightning came from his fingertips and struck him.

Screams filled the classroom again and everything him in screamed to kill the boy. Aries wanted to finish him off more than he had ever wanted to in his life, but he relented at last.

Blood was everywhere, but Ivan would clean it up. He was good at that. A simple cleaning charm removed Kruger's blood from him and as he made his way to leave Haydn stopped him.
