《Emerald》72
Advertisement
We were dragged through the long, dark halls of the Malfoy Manner to a large room.
Standing before us was Bellatrix, Peter (one of Voldemort's loyal followers), Narcissa, Lucius, and Draco.
Draco... not Draco.
As his eyes met mine, he gasped.
I was covered in dried blood.
My body was littered in bruises and lumps.
I was beaten, and bloody.
"What happened to her?!" Draco asked panicking, as he frantically looked around the room.
"Settle, Draco." His mother grabbed his shoulder softly.
I turned away from them, and looked down at the floor.
I couldn't bare to see his heart break beneath Draco's eyes.
I didn't want him to see me this way.
The snatcher holding Harry, pulled him over to Draco.
The snatcher pushed Harry to the ground.
"Draco, we have to be sure it's him." Bellatrix walked over to the two of them.
Draco kneeled down, and put his face close to Harry's.
Lucius put his hand on Draco's shoulder.
"If it's him, and we give him to the dark lord, all will be forgiven." Lucius whispered desperately into Draco's ear.
Draco glanced at me, then back at Harry, as the nervousness built inside him.
"What happened to his face?" Draco asked.
"Yeah, what happened to his face?" Bellatrix spat at the snatchers.
"We picked him up like that, he must have picked up something from the forest." A snatcher chimed in.
"Let me see their wands. I want to see their last spells they casted!" Bellatrix demanded.
She took hold of all of our wands, and looked through them.
"Ah ha, just as I thought!" Bellatrix yelled.
"Look what else they had, I recon it's mine now!" One of the snatchers smiled as he held up the sword of gryffindor.
Bellatrix eyes darted angrily throughout all of us.
"WHERE DID YOU GET THAT! ITS SUPPOSED TO BE IN MY VAULT!" Bellatrix screamed.
"It was in the bag. One of the girls were holding!" The snatcher defended himself.
"Get out!" Bellatrix yelled at the snatchers, as she casted at them.

The snatchers let go of us, and ran out of the building.
"Take the boys to the cellar! We're going to have a talk, girls to GIRLS!" Bellatrix spat in Hermione's and I's face.
The boys were hauled off the the cellar by Peter.
Lucius held me back, as Bellatrix pushed Hermione to the ground.
Bellatrix held Hermione to the ground with her whole body.
She pulled out a dagger, and held it to Hermione's neck.
"How did you get into my vault!" Bellatrix yelled in Hermione's face.
"I didn't take anything, please!" Hermione cried.
"Let her go!" I screamed, and tried to break free from Lucius grip.
Lucius quickly wrapped his arm around my neck, putting me in a choke hold.
He held his wand to my face, and pushed it into my cheek.
"I'll kill you right now, if you don't sit still, and be quiet!" Lucius growled.
"Stop it!" Draco yelled at his father.
His voice cracked with emotion, as he talked.
"Quiet!" Lucius scolded Draco.
"Fine, have it your way!" Bellatrix moved her dagger to Hermione's arm.
She began carving mudblood into her skin.
Hermione let out a blood curdling scream.
Lucius tightened his grip on my neck, to prevent me from screaming.
His grip began cutting off my airway.
"No-" I began to say, and Lucius squeezed even tighter.
"It's mine!" I managed to yell out.
Bellatrix stopped, and her head snapped up to me.
"What did she say!" Bellatrix yelled.
Lucius loosened his grip a little.
I took a quick deep breath of air.
"It's my bag, not hers." I quickly said.
Bellatrix face tightened with anger, and her eyes narrowed.
"Give me the girl!" She growled.
Lucius let go of me, and stepped back.
"Crucio!" Bellatrix casted at me.
The spell his my body, and threw me across the room.
My body filled with immense pain, as my muscles convulsed.
My whole body twitched.
I was in the worse pain of my life.
I felt like I was being burned alive.
I screamed from the bottom of my chest.

"JUST KILL ME!" I begged, being dead was better than this.
"Don't touch her!" Draco yelled, as he ran up to Bellatrix.
Bellatrix stopped casting at me, and turned to Draco.
"How dare you interrupt me!" She spat at Draco.
"Not her, please." Draco spoke softer, almost begging her.
I couldn't move, my body was in to much pain.
I didn't care if they killed me, as long as the others were safe.
"Oh, so Draco has a little crush?!" Bellatrix let out an evil cackle.
She walked over, and held my body down with hers.
She pulled the dagger out, and held it to the left side of my face.
I was too tired to fight.
"It could be a shame... if I cut up your pretty little face!" Bellatrix flicked her wrist quickly, and sliced open the left side of my lips.
"We had a deal, Bellatrix! Not her!" Draco angrily hollered.
Draco's voice echoed with remorse, as he begged.
Draco was nearly in tears.
"Bella, leave her." Narcissa ordered.
Bellatrix rolled her eyes.
"Filthy mudblood!" Bellatrix huffed in my face, as she got up from me.
She looked around the room, and her eyes locked on Peter.
"Bring me the Goblin!" She ordered.
Once Peter grabbed the goblin from the cellar, she began interrogating him.
Peter returned back down to the cellar, to grab the boys.
I could hear light footsteps coming up the stairs from the cellar.
"Stupefy!" Harry casted at Lucius, knocking him back.
Peter was no where to be seen.
Draco and his mother, began dueling Harry and Ron.
"Drop your wands, or the girl gets it!" Bellatrix announced.
She had picked up Hermione, and held her blade to her neck.
They all stopped casting.
Harry and Ron quickly dropped their wands.
"Pick up their wands, Draco." Narcissa ordered him.
He quickly did what he was told.
"Ah, so it is Harry!" Bellatrix exclaimed.
His face was back to normal, the effects of the spell Hermione casted at him wore off.
"Call him, Draco!" Bellatrix demanded.
Draco looked at me, as I laid on the floor motionless.
His eyes were filled with heart break.
Draco's eyes drifted to the ring on his finger.
Our ring.
"Pathetic! I'll do it!" Lucius degraded Draco, as he pushed him aside.
Lucius lifted his sleeve, to reveal his dark mark.
Before Lucius could call Voldemort, we heard a small squeaking from above.
Dobby the house elf, was on the chandelier loosening the bolts.
The chandelier fell quickly, Bellatrix let go of Hermione.
They both jumped out of the way just in time.
The chandelier hit the ground, and shattered into a million pieces.
In the mix of the chaos, I was grabbed from the floor.
I was lifted to my feet, by my arms.
"Go!" Draco whispered to me, "go now!"
It took every ounce of strength from me, to push away from him, and run across the room.
Harry ran up to Draco, and tackled him to the ground.
They rolled around, as they fought for the handful of wands that Draco had.
Harry yanked the wands out of Draco's grasp.
They all ran by me across the room.
Harry, Hermione, Ron, Dobby, and I all stood in a group.
"You tried to kill me!" Bellatrix yelled at Dobby.
"Dobby never meant to kill anyone, only seriously injure." The house elf defended himself.
Narcissa pulled her wand out, but before she could cast, Dobby snapped his fingers.
Narcissa's wand flew out of her hand.
"How dare you take a witches wand! How dare you disobey your masters!" Bellatrix yelled at Dobby.
Dobby took a deep breath, and stood tall.
"Dobby has no master! Dobby is a free elf!" He spoke proudly, "and Dobby is here to rescue his friends, and save Harry Potter!"
We all put our hands on the house elf.
My vision started to move in slow motion, as Dobby began to flash us out.
At the last second, Bellatrix threw her dagger.
I closed my eyes, as we left Malfoy Manner.
