Curses flew past him as Spike rushed down the alleyway. Two Death Eaters were hot on his heels and he was running out of ideas. His refusal to subjugate himself to the rule of the dark lord had earned him a very powerful enemy. Unfortunately his pride was too strong to allow him to serve anyone, even someone as powerful as Voldemort.

Spike turned a corner and spotted his motorcycle. He allowed a small portion of relief to wash over him as he neared the bike. His hope was quickly dashed, however, when the bike suddenly rose up into the air and burst into flames.

Spike realized running was a futile enterprise and felt a surge of power rush through him as he decided he had no choice but to fight. He turned to face his pursuers and was horrified to find himself now encircled by five Death Eaters with the Dark Lord himself at the top of the arc.

Despite being gripped by a growing sense of dread, Spike glowered at his opponent and said, “I’m impressed you wankers can run so fast in your nancy robes. You ought to…” His insult was cut short by the shrill voice of He Who Shall Not Be Named commanding “Silencio.”

Spike was stunned momentarily but quickly regained his composure. He rushed towards the dark lord with his fangs bared, already thinking about how sweet this bloke’s blood was going to taste.

Spike’s charge was interrupted as Voldemort pointed his wand and said “Avada Kedavra.” Green light erupted from the wand and blasted Spike in the chest. The spell knocked him back but hardly killed him.

Spike picked himself up and grinned while saying, “You’re going to have to try harder than that. I’m already dead, you knob.”

“Very well,” said Voldemort. “Imperio!”

Spike suddenly found himself unable to control his limbs. Voldemort picked a stick up from the ground and threw it to Spike. Spike caught the stick and immediately plunged it deep into his chest involuntarily, piercing his heart. A heartbeat later he turned to dust but by then the dark lord had already turned to go.
