Numberland by Axiomea — Chapters 10-19

Description

It’s 2004. Seven years ago, the world almost ended. After he killed Harry Potter, Voldemort unleashed a deadly fog over the world, killing 73% of the population and forcing the survivors to seclude themselves underground. Now established at Hogwarts, the only fogless place left, his Empire is growing stronger and deadlier. Every year, the Death Eaters capture mudbloods and muggles to partake in a wandless and violent year-long tournament called Numberland to entertain the Purebloods that pledged their allegiance to the dark side. To ensure the players' performance is entertaining, they are ruthlessly trained, fed and harboured in the castle. Meanwhile, outside the Empire’s borders, the UK is stirring with the dangerous energy of a civil war.


When Hermione is captured and assigned to Draco’s training, she realises three things. One, Draco, now paired with a dog that never leaves his side, is even more dangerous and broken than before. Second, the person she was before can no longer exist in Numberland. And lastly, her desire to win might not be greater than her desire to burn the Empire to the ground.


Notes:

Is it HEA? I don’t want readers to have bad, traumatic surprises, so here goes. They both live, they’re together and they’re happy together. However, it’s a dystopian world, and it was broken beyond repair. There will be many deaths until the end. We sadly can’t expect a typical fairytale ending with croissants and glittering galas. I might say it’s dystopian/bittersweet ending.


What happens to the dog?

The worse that Keela will endure is Crucio. I know this sounds bad, but she recovers quickly and she doesn’t die in this story.
