CELESTE
hit spells everywhere like it was the last thing she was able to do. Leo was doing the same, his back just against Celeste's. The boy wasn't sure what terrified him more, the fact that there was an actual battle going on or the fact that if anything would happen to Celeste, he would most definitely end up dead in the hands of Lucius Malfoy.
With the corner of his eye, he could spot others fighting as fiercely as he and Celeste were. Students dressed in their school uniforms battled against adults who were wearing dark cloaks. Leo could hear Celeste breathing heavily as she hit another spell at someone. He knew she was strong but she has never been one to hurt anyone, he only hoped that this won't traumatize her for life.
Leo grabbed Celeste's hand when there were no more enemies around them and led her into the corridors. The Malfoy girl frowned as she run with Leo but didn't stop, she knew Leo wanted her somewhere safe. She knew that being in the front line wasn't the best idea, she was wanted by Voldemort. Without stopping, Leo found the Room of Requirements and stormed there with Celeste.
He placed his hands on Celeste's shoulders and stared into her deep blue eyes. "I can't have you fighting over there," he said. "You are wanted and the way they were fighting over there, it's not good."
Celeste smiled fondly at her boyfriend and leaned to kiss him. "You're cute when you worry. But you know that I need to do this. I need to help."
"I agree with the boy," came a very familiar voice and Celeste turned around. It was Tonks. The girl sprinted over to her cousin and wrapped her arms around her.
"What the bloody hell are you doing here? Shouldn't you be with Andy and Teddy," Celeste asked when she pulled away from Tonks.
Tonks shook her head with a smile that was half sad and half something. "I couldn't stay there, not while Remus is here. Besides, I thought you might need some Tonks power with you."
Celeste grinned. "That's true. It's absolutely awful out there," she sighed, remembering the battle field she had just come from. She slowly turned her head to take a look at the Room of Requirements when she noticed an older woman standing few feet away from her.
"Pardon me, but I don't believe we have me," Celeste said and the woman started to walk towards her. She stopped just in front of Celeste.
"I'm Augusta Longbottom," Mrs Longbottom said. "Neville's grandmother."
"Oh, it's a pleasure to meet you Mrs Longbottom," Celeste said, slightly chuckling. How on Earth did she end up meeting Neville Longbottom's grandmother in the middle of a battle. Before she had another chance to talk to Mrs Longbottom or Tonks, Ginny ran to her.
