Diagon Alley

"Oh don't worry, I'm a professional..." He laughed a bit as a plan started to come together.

'May I provide my assistance?' He raised a brow, eagerness rising in him at the concept of more mischief and mayhem.

"I thought that went without saying! I'd never have a party without you!"

'Just remember I have my tricks, a good illusion here and there never hurt anybody.' He cracked his knuckles. 'I'll make some goody bags.'

The young sadist laughed so hard he could feel his lungs starting to strain, "And here I almost forgot just how fun you are..."

'What can is say? Centuries on this earth makes me a good party man...' He winked, before whispering quickly in Crouch's ear. 'The Desouza girl is weak to illusion magic, use it to your advantage.'

"Well then... seems I got to think up the perfect illusion then, one of pain and torment beyond comprehension... the sort to make her tremble and beg for death." Crouch's heart lurched at the possibility, his lips almost drying as though waiting for blood to splatter on his lips for him to lick off.

The grin on Lukas's face became sick, distorted even. He'd give the Desouzas a fighting chance in this - eventually, but he would rather let Crouch have his fun first. Ace would be a difficult one to crack. 'You need to know what she's afraid of first.'

"Coe now Lukas, think you she's the first mind I've shattered?"

"My recent... shall we stick with 'medieval' tactics may not suggest so but in my early years, when I was starting here, I was quite a charmer and a manipulator..."

"But once my reputation grew to the point of preceding me, such methods were discarded..."

'But she's also a smart kid. She will know from her family not to even associate with you.' He noted yet again, frowning to himself.

"Don't worry. I have an idea..."

'Do tell' he insisted, feeling his cheeks ache from all the smiling. It was times like this that he remembered why he created so much chaos.

"Can I have some paper?"

He conjured some, handing it to him and wondering why Crouch hadnt just done that himself.

OOC Crouch: "I'm lazy, leave me alone" :3

IC

He wrote into the paper madly his hands moving at the same rate as his pounding heart at the ruin he was due to bring,

"Dear Ace,

You have been cordially invited to a private party I'm holding in the Room of Requirement. It would be to your advantage and the safety of others to come alone. I have a dark magical artifact that is highly unstable and if left unchecked is sure to cause untold havoc that just excites me to the core. Blood, bodies, death... beautiful don't you think? 

Please don't keep me waiting long. You know how impatient I get.

Regards,
Crouch

PS Let's keep this little get together between ourselves. Bad things happen to the people who gossip to if you catch my drift. You alone must know about this and come."

I swear i replied to this, sorry!

ic A frown crinkled his forehead, inspecting the letter closer. 'What makes you think she'll walk into an obvious trap? Even if something bad could happen?' Lukas wasn't convinced.

"She won't... and that's exactly what I'm counting on. I have no intention of making that meeting either."

"What this gives is a perfect alibi..." He grinned devious as his fingers started to twitch with excitement, as though his own skin were vibrating with energy.

He frowned, brow crinkling. 'I'm afraid I don't understand.'

"Just watch the show my friend..." Crouch smiled at him with a grin even Satan would have cringed at. His psychotic mind was blasting exhilaration into his veins, each burst making him more and more eager to get the jump on his latest sinister machination."It's going to be a comedy of unmatched proportions..."

"But just to give a small hint... why should I have all the fun? It's time someone else took the driver seat on the Desouza killing initiative..."

Lukas shuddered, invigorated by the pure madness that radiated from his partner in crime. 'I understand. I'll be here should you require my assistance. I'm very... convincing when it comes to playing tricks on people and misleading them.'

"Well then, can you see to it Ace gets my little invitation and just lead her under the impression that it's just business as usual with me? I need her and her family to believe I'll be using merely blunt tactics..."

He bobbed his head in a mock bow, nodding. 'As you wish. One request from me though, as bizarre as it might be.' Lukas paused, grinning to himself. 'Will you slaughter all of their family? One of them is quite useful to me.'

"hmm..." He takes a mocking thoughtful look as he scratched his chin, "you're asking for me to decimate the family that has humiliated me more than once and mere existence offends me..." 

"Hmmm..."

He shrugged with a smile, "I guess I can slip it in my schedule somewhere.."

He chuckled again, an amused look crossing his sharp features. 'Save one of them for me, that's my request.' Lukas fished into his pockets, pulling out one of his sheets of parchment and unrolling it. 'Property an' all.'

"Ohh but I hate mercy..." Crouch gave a pouting look of disapproval, "But if you request it, I suppose I can make an exception.."

OOC Gtg dinner bye!
