Written for @oblviqte‘s Triwizard Tournament Second Task: Creatures (I really hope I could wrote something like this, haha)
Immortality. Something what human beings desire the most in the world. This and power, of course. However, it's possible to say that these two things are connected. Being immortal means that you can't be stopped because no one and nothing can kill you. Not even Death, Thanatos, himself.
But is being immortal a good thing?
Fawkes knows a thing or two about immortality. All because he's a phoenix. A mythological creature, a symbol of rebirth since it can't die. Because always, when it's getting old, it will burn and reborn a minute later.
Fawkes witnessed many things in his life. He witnessed raises and falls of cities, countries and, of course, rises and falls of people. And if he had to be honest, those were always the most dangerous. Sometimes he wondered how it was possible that humans were considered as the best among living creatures.
He witnessed many things, he travelled around the world trying to find his place and finally he found himself in the Great Britain, and being more specific: he found himself in Scotland, in place called Hogwarts.
It was in the tenth century because it was time when Founders lived. Fawkes was impressed by them. Those four wizards were very powerful and incredibly gifted. In fact it was their magical energy which attracted him to this place. So he stayed there, away from their sight, obviously.
Hogwarts was a place where he met her. Mundus (what can be translated as “Pure”) was a young basilisk of Salazar Slytherin which he brought in order to keep school save from Muggles. Fawkes wasn't a big fan of this man, he considered him an evil wizard, but he had to admit that he cared about the little snake. And Fawkes himself was charmed by her. The phoenix used to visit the Chamber of Secrets where Mundus lived and together they spent their days. But it didn't last long because Slytherin had an argument with the rest of Founders and put Mundus into hibernation, so she could be awakened when Hogwarts needed to be protected. Salazar himself left school.
Fawkes lost his friend for over thousand years. But what he didn't know back then was the fact, that their reunion would be their last meeting.
Mundus heard a voice. For the first time in a very long time. But it wasn't her master. This voice was different. It wasn't gentle. It was... demanding? She didn't like it. She didn't like the voice and the owner of the voice. Such a strange boy, this one. He was tall, had black hair and could be consider as charming if not the look in his eyes.
His name was Tom. Tom Marvolo Riddle. And he was her master's heir. But Mundus could already tell that she despised the boy.
He forced her to kill a girl. And she didn't want to kill her because she was supposed to protect school from evil Muggles. After all it was the reason her master brought her. But this boy... this... monster used his power against her. He was the heir and she was obligated to listen to him.
And then he put her into hibernation. Maybe it's a good thing, she thought. Because while sleeping she won't be able to kill anyone.
Ah! The voice is back. The heir returned and once again used her to attack students of Hogwarts. But this time he was using an innocent girl. What a poor thing, she thought. Being forced into something she didn't want to. Just like her.
“Kill him!” said the heir when a black-haired boy with glasses entered the Chamber of Secret in order to save his red-haired friend. “Kill him!”
She didn't want to kill him. She really didn't want to and tried to fight it, but she didn't have choice. The obligation was too strong. She was the heir's slave and she had to do as he ordered her. And she really hated herself for that.
She was about to attack the boy when suddenly she hear it. Her friend's song. Fawkes, she thought. Her friend was here. He was still here!
She looked at him. He still looked the same what wasn't surprising taking into account that he's a phoenix. That was also the reason why her sight didn't kill or petrified him. A phoenix can't be killed.
If she could frown, she would because he looked at her apologetically. She didn't have to wait long to know why because a few moments later she felt an incredible pain. Fawkes took out her eyes so the young boy could have a chance to defeated her.
“NO!” she heard the heir's voice. He was angry. “Use your hearing to kill him! I want to see him DEAD!”
She had to fulfil his request so she resumed her attack. She still tried to fight with it, but Tom's magic was too strong. She cursed herself that she was just a creature and the wizard had power over her. Because he turned her into something she didn't want to be: a monster and murderer.
WHAT A PAIN!
She cried when a sword pierced her because never in her life she felt such a strong pain. If she still had her eyes, she would cry. It hurt so much! She heard Riddle's yelling in background, she heard as he ordered her to fight back, but she wasn't able. The pain was too strong and she knew it was over. But before her body collapsed on the floor, she smiled to herself. She didn't want to die in pain but she preferred to be dead than serving such a cruel man.
Thank you, little wizard, for freeing me from slavery, she thought before she was gone. Forever.
There's a saying that you are what you eat. But Fawkes thought that people, especially wizards, should consider another one: you become what you are. If you ask wizards about dementors, they will tell you that they are the worst creatures in the world and that they are born in dark, isolated places. But it's a lie in which ignorant wizards use to believe. But they are right about one thing. Dementors indeed are the worst creatures in the world.
All because dementors are humans.
Fawkes witnessed the creation of the first dementor. It was a very arrogant wizard in his late thirties. His name was Cadmus Peverell. Yes, the owner of the Resurrection Stone from the famous tale named “The Tale of the Three Brothers”. Death can't be cheated, and what is more important: he really doesn't like when people try to humiliate him.
Thanatos gave Cadmus the Stone, but the price he had to pay was terrible. When wizards repeat the story, they say that the middle brother killed himself because his beloved fiancée returned to him but not fully alive. But it's not the truth. Cadmus never died and never will be because he was turned into dementor. It was his punishment for wanting to humiliate Death. He was forced to live in this form to the end of time (and soon, obviously, other people joined him and that's why there's a lot of dementors).
Fawkes met him again in 1993 when dementors were at Hogwarts because Sirius Black escaped from Azkaban Prison they were guarding. He didn't look well. Dementors don't have eyes but Fawkes was convinced that if they had, Cadmus would cry. He was more than sorry for what he did many years ago and was begging for mercy. But Death doesn't know such word. The man wanted to humiliate him and gain immortality then immortal he will be.
Fawkes felt sorry for him, but then again it was all his own fault.
Dumbledore was gone and he felt lost. Because Dumbledore was the only human he cared about. He was bonded to him and his death had a great impact on him. He wasn't able to stay at Hogwarts anymore. Sure, he was here before Dumbledore, but right now it's not the same. He loved this wizard (even if he wasn't that saint) and without him he felt empty. As if part of him was gone.
Right now he was observing a man responsible for his Albus' death. Voldemort might not kill him in person but because of his stupid horcruxes the old wizard was gone. And Fawkes hated him for that (and for many other things).
“I told you that you shouldn't get attached to humans,” he heard a voice behind him. He turned his little head and saw a figure dressed in black robes. Thanatos himself. “They all will be gone at some point.”
He didn't say anything. He didn't have to. Instead, the phoenix once again turned towards the man.
“Believe me, his fate is worse than being a dementor,” Death said casually as if he was talking about the weather. The bird looked at him. “No human can be immortal. He parted his soul seven times so he'll suffer seven times more than Peverell. No human can escape me.”
Fawkes titled his head. What could be worse than being a dementor?
“It doesn't matter now. Come. It's time for you to finally go home with me. You were away for far too long.”
The creature said nothing just looked at Riddle for the last time and flew to sit on Thanatos' shoulder. He cursed his fate that he was born as a phoenix. Because immortality wasn't a blessing but a horrible curse. It's a shame that humans seem to not know about it.
