Harry Potter: Rise Of The Spiral

Iris looked at him with desperation as Edmund concentrated on finding a method to get rid of the soul piece in her scar.

He recalled Sasuke Uchiha telling Naruto how Itachi Uchiha helped him get rid of his curse mark. But before that, he had already killed that snake face.

Orochimaru designed his curse mark in such a way that he could possess someone's body, killing the person's soul. The curse mark helped him during the soul transfer. But he could come back from the dead and have a new body for himself just with the help of the curse mark, as he did with Kabuto's mark.

Voldemort's diary was somewhat similar. It was draining Weaselette's soul off it's energy and with it he could revive himself. But, he couldn't revive himself just with a diary as there was no soul to drain power from.

That was not the case with Iris. She was a living being and his soul piece could have possessed her completely. It was a miracle that she was still herself.

Orochimaru had a dimension for himself where he would kill the other person and take over the person body. But there was no such thing in this case.

Magic, was there some spell that he could use? For years he had been studying different kinds of magic and there must be something that could help him. The killing curse. It shredded the target's soul into oblivion. If he tried that on her scar, could he kill the soul piece while Iris remained unharmed? Would she even trust him to cast such a spell on her? No, there had to another way. The mind scape! He had to try that option.

Looking at Iris, he said, "Iris, hold out your fist."

"Why?" She asked as she c.o.c.ked her head sideways.

"Just do it. I have to try something. Trust me, if this works we won't have to deal with this the hard and more dangerous way."

Nodding, Iris held out her fist which was met with Edmund's. He closed his eyes and Iris could feel herself being pulled somewhere.

"How did we get here?" She asked, looking around trying to find if anyone saw them suddenly appear in the middle of the street.

Edmund looked around the dark and gloomy place and replied, "This is what your mind scape looks like. A place where you keep your memories. But, why does it look like this? Do you know this place?"

Nodding, she replied, "Yeah, I live here with my relatives."

Pointing towards the house in front of them, she said, "That's No. 4 Privet Drive, her house."

With a grim expression, Edmund said, "Iris, this house reeks of malice. The aura around it very dark and deathly."

Iris gasped and her head snapped towards the place.

"Come on." He beckoned her to follow, cautious with every step he took forward.

The murk inside was very intense. It intensified when they moved towards the kitchen. It was the maximum near a door under the stairs. He immediately knew that the source of the murk was inside the cupboard. As he was about about to open it, Iris grabbed his wrist and rapidly shook her head. Her expression was that of panic, as if she was trying to hide something from him.

"What happened Iris? Why did you stop me? I can feel the source of all this gloom behind this door."

"L-Let's look somewhere else. I think we should look upstairs. That's where my room is."

Edmund looked intently at her and freed his wrist from her grip. Despite her protests, he grabbed the door handle and yanked it open. What he saw made him want to puke. A dark, shadowy infant was lying on a torn bloody mattress, hissing at him.

Suddenly, the shadow released a burst of darkness and flung Edmund and Iris out of the house. The darkness gathered onto the roof of the house and condensed to form a hooded figure, which eerily looked like a disembodied Voldemort.

Gathering her courage, Iris shouted, "Voldemort!"

The figure looked down at them and shrieked, releasing a massive amount of dark intent.

Edmund flared his chakra and battled with the intent to push it back.

Voldemort pointed his hand at them and a wand materialized in it. He hissed, "Avada Kedavra!"

Edmund tackled Iris away from the spell and charged at the dark wizard. Making a horse hand sign, he breathed, "Katon: Majestic Destroyer Flame."

A stream of fire was exhaled out of his mouth as it rushed towards Voldemort to burn him asunder. Voldemort waved his wand and summoned a huge amount of water to counter Edmund's flame jutsu. Needless to say there was a lot of steam. Edmund quickly maneuvered through the steam.

Closing in on Voldemort, he slammed a Yin release: Rasengan into his back which grinded through his cloak. Voldemort shrieked as he was thrown spinning into the air due to the sheer force of Edmund's attack. Having added Yin chakra into his rasengan, the damage it dealt was immense.

Iris was shocked to say the least. One moment Edmund was standing beside her, somewhat guarding her from Voldemort and in the next moment, he released a stream of fire from his mouth which had really high temperature. Then he created a spinning ball of magic and with unimaginable speed he slammed it into Voldemort's back and sent him flying. How did he get so fast? How was he able to do such strong and peculiar wandless magic?

So entrapped with Edmund's prowess, she didn't notice Voldemort casting a killing curse at her.

Suddenly Edmund appeared right next to her and slammed his hands on the ground, making a wall of stone rise behind her. The curse struck the wall and shattered it. The force threw them several feet away.

"Snap out of it Iris! I'll answer all your questions. Fight him!"

Iris quickly got up and held onto her wand, getting ready to join the fight.

Voldemort sneered and fired one dark curse after another. To counter them, Edmund threw kunai coated with yin chakra and magic. Not one to stand back from a perilous situation, Iris joined the fight and began casting her own cutting and blasting curses.

Seeing that the battle was at a standstill, Voldemort snarled, "Fulmin!"

A ray of plasma came rushing at them at high speeds. Edmund pushed Iris out of the way and sped through hand signs and shouted, "Purple lightening!"

A widespread stream of purple thunder met Voldemort's spell as it destroyed the pavement and street below it.

Sensing his jutsu losing it's power, Edmund snarled, "Shadow clone jutsu!"

Sensing mortal danger, Voldemort ended his spell and quickly aparated away. He focused on his magic and casted, "Terra Golems."

Numerous earth golems sprouted out from the street and rushed towards Edmund who had created several clones to fight them.

Meanwhile, Voldemort focused on Iris and sent a stream of killing curse at her. Seeing the offensive magic coming towards her, Iris gathered all the magic she could and casted a disarming charm to push the curse back at her adversary.

The spells met and entered an impasse. They pushed all the magic they could possibly push. Since Voldemort just had a fragment of his power, Iris was successful in pushing the spells towards him.

Edmund was desperately fighting the golems that kept healing themselves by absorbing the rubble around them. When he saw Iris and Voldemort fighting each other, he and his clones got desperate and roared together, "BLACK CHIDORI STREAM!"

Large amount of black lightening struck the earth golems and blasted them into cinders.

Just as he was about to rush towards the two, Voldemort's spell was pushed back at him and struck him, destroying the soul piece.

Iris fell backwards but was caught by a heavily breathing Edmund, "You were brilliant Iris!"

She smiled up at him and fainted.

Edmund pulled himself and Iris out of her mind scape. He found himself sitting on his chair while Iris had fallen back on the bed, black goo dripping from her scar. Getting up, he washed away the goo and asked the room to change the sheets. He then tucked Iris into the bed and kissed her forehead, "Rest for now my sweet Iris. I won't let anyone hurt you. I'll be there for you, forever. This is a promise of a lifetime, and I never go back on my word."

A/N: I tried to create a great battle scene but I don't know if I did it any justice. I'd appreciate if you could tell me whether you liked it or not. I'm a complete amateur and just write for fun, well, in this case, type for fun. Ciao~
