Chapter 23 continue.

Harry just couldn't understand it. He was looking at the woman in front of him and just couldn't understand why she did all that she did.
"Why?" he managed to ask after a while. "I mean we thought you were involved in some way but never that you were the leader of this madness. What's in it for you? You weren't even born when Voldemort was alive!"
"Oh, but I was", Artemis responded. The Death Eaters had stopped fighting and were watching her...obediently. There was no doubt that she was leading them. "Yes Harry Potter I was born. I was six years old actually".
"I don't understand", Harry said shaking his head. And he truly couldn't understand. A girl in her twenties had managed to wreck his entire world and he didn't even know why or how. How she managed to make the Death Eaters obey her? Who the hell was she?
"That day, when Voldemort fell, your people murdered my mother", she said. "I grew up without her because of you and your friends".
Harry was left silent for a while, trying to comprehend all of the things she was saying.
"Your mother", he whispered finally. "Who was she?"
Artemis smirked and so did the Death Eaters behind her and at that moment Harry knew the answer. Of course. He glanced at the long blonde hair that fell on the girl's shoulders and at her blue, wild, half-crazed eyes; her beauty was fiercely independent. Of course. How couldn't he see the similarity before? It was so obvious to him now.
"Bellatrix Lestrange", he and Artemis said at the same time and Matthias gasped widening his eyes just as Harry rolled his; it was amazing how that woman could cause him so much trouble even from the grave.
"I'm glad you finally got there", the girl said and Harry shook his head.
"Did you even know her?" he asked and was pleased to see that her expression tightened.
"I didn't and that was because of you", she spitted but Harry laughed.
"Well, too bad you didn't know her...then you wouldn't be so sorry she's dead", he said and her eyes shone with hatred but she remain calm.
"You can say anything you want Potter", she smiled. "I'm here and I'm gonna take my revenge...and when you give me the book I'll be able to bring back both the Dark Lord and my mother".
"In what universe do you live in? You have no idea of what Voldemort is capable of and you still..."
"No, you have no idea of what I'm capable of!" she yelled back at him. "What? You think that I'm some silly little girl who's been misguided, is that it? Oh, no I'm not...I wouldn't have managed to bring the Death Eaters together if I was. No, I'm the one who ordered Dolohov to torture you son. Those wires in his hands? It was my idea", she said and behind her words and her anger, Harry could see that she was actually proud of the horrible things she had done.
"You're sick", he whispered disgusted remembering the deep cuts in James' hands. She smirked and continued.
"I'm the one who ordered my adorable Death Eaters to kill your best friend and that...that was just the beginning".
Harry gulped and tried to get over the shiver the thought of Ron's death was giving him; he wasn't going to accept it as a fact, not until he would see him dead with his own eyes. He focused on something else in her words instead.
"What do you mean just the beginning?" he asked.
"I'm planning to take revenge from my mother's killer before I use the book to bring her back", she said and Harry shook his head.
"I won't let you; I won't let you touch Molly", he said and she growled at the sound of the name.
"That stupid old hag! She's gonna regret the time she dared to stand against my mother! She took her away from my, so I'm gonna take something away from her".
"What?" Harry asked; the craziness in the eyes of that girl was convincing him that she really meant every word that escaped her lips and also that she truly was the daughter of Bellatrix Lestrange.
"Well, see I spend years trying to figure out what the best revenge would be. I could kill her but would that be enough? No, I don't think so. Plus I wanted to take revenge on you too before I give you to the Dark Lord, since you hold a great responsibility on my mother's death as well", she said.
Harry was trying to keep up to her crazy logic but she was finding it rather difficult. From what he had understood so far though it seemed that neither Molly nor himself were in grave danger for now; of course she would want to keep him alive until she brought Voldemort back to kill him himself, but what about Molly? What kind of revenge had she formed in her mind?
"Molly Weasley killed my mother", Artemis said with a stern voice and as she looked at Harry with eyes full of hate, he understood and his blood froze in his veins, his heart started beating hard, his brain went numb from agony; a revenge on him and Molly both. "So I'm going to kill her daughter".
