This: "Do you know what will happen should a pawn make it all the way through the enemy lines?"
Too perplexed to answer, Bella flicked her fan open and close. Could that idiot just have read her mind?
"A pawn stealthy and clever enough to reach the other end of the board unharmed will be transformed into a queen, the most powerful piece in the game."
is completely made of win! I loved the way you turned the tables on Bella (who truly deserves if anyone ever did) and the slick, elegant way Snape screws with her mind in the end. That's Severus to a T.
The characterization of Bellatrix is spot on too, such a manipulative bitch with no compunction whatsoever. Just the way she should be. :)
