"Listen kid I'm sorry about leaving that day, but I didn't sign up to die for you" Fletcher said"That's not what we're discussing right now you coward, what did you steal from this house?" Harry aggressively asked
"Nothing" Fletcher said trying to get out of question "nothing worth selling that is"
I punched him in the face again
"A locket was here, we know you took it"He looked at me curiously
"Was it valuable??"I went to hit him again but Ron held me back
"What happened to it??" Harry demanded
"I was selling some...items I got from this house and a ministry worker came up to my stall asking if I had the right permits and shit, real nosey that woman. She shut me down and took the locket from me" he looked at a paper on the ground "that one right there"
On the ground was a parchment from the daily Prophet and on the front of it stood the last person we felt like dealing with next to Voldemort
Umbridge"Umbridge has it??" I demanded "fuck!"
"That's her all right, she took it was it worth a lot?" Fletcher asked
I looked at Kreacher and nodded my head, Kreacher slapped his face
"What else did you steal?!" I demanded
I was fuming"Honestly there wasn't much worth anything, some jewelry mostly"
"Ron let me at him!" I yelled trying to pull out of his arms but he held tightly
Harry stared at me weirdly but then kept interrogating Fletcher until we decided he was no longer use to us and had Kreacher and Dobby return him from where they grabbed him
He told Kreacher to return here as well"Electra did you know your eyes change red?" Harry asked when we all sat down again
"Fred's mentioned it before but usually when I'm really mad it happens...I wanted to beat the shit out of him my dads things were stolen and sold...I'll never get them back"
"I'm sorry" Harry said
"Well at least we know where to get the locket" Ron said
"From Umbridge, like that's going to be an easy task" Hermione said annoyed
Weeks have gone by and we still had no game plan for sneaking into the ministry and getting the real locket
I kept an eye on the streets outside but nothing changed other than which death eater was on watch duty"I swear if I see Fenrir out there I'm taking back Fred's locket" I said annoyed to Ron
"You're going to tackle a werewolf?" He asked curiously
"He's got it coming to him"
He was the one who stole me from Hogwarts and brutalized Bill's face...he has a lot to pay forI doubled over from burning pain on my right arm, it hasn't happened since the first day we arrived here
"I've got you" Ron said holding my shoulders, he sat down on the ground in front of me "don't let him win"
I nodded my head and waited for the pain to go away
Once it did, Ron helped me to my feet again and walked me to the couch
I saw Kreacher watching me curiosity, if I didn't know better I would have thought he was nervous for me
Kreacher has been extremely helpful during our time here though
Every morning and night he has made us food, he has gone shopping for it as well.
He's cleaned up most of the house and he's been keeping himself cleanLater on that day I saw Kreacher cleaning my old room
"Kreacher"He turned around to look at me
"Mistress Electra " he bowed"Mistress huh? No longer Miss.Black?" I asked curiously "Can I ask you something?"
"What is it Mistress Electra needs?"
"You were attached to Regulus huh"
He nodded his head
"Kreacher was fond over Master Regulus, Master treated Kreacher with respect""Can we have that relationship? I understand if you prefer to stay at the house, but I will have my own house by a lake next year and Harry will take over the house of Black...if you want to come live with me and stay with the Black family I would be honored"
When I looked into his eyes I swear they sparkled, but before I could comment on it they turned back to normal
"Kreacher does what Mistress Electra wants"I took that as him being ok with living in my house with Fred
I smiled and he bowed to me, then I left my old room to go back downstairs"I'll go mad if I have to stay indoors any longer" Ron said pacing back and forth
"Hit two months then we'll talk" I said retaliating
"I'm sorry I didn't mean—"
"No it's ok really, I get it. It was hard then and it's harder now when my mind thinks I'm trapped in their manor again. My dad stayed in this house for years, barely ever leaving and I don't know how he stayed sane. I'm glad he had Lupin to keep him company"
"Oh no" Hermione said throwing the paper towards us "look who made Headmaster"
We all looked at the paper and there on the front page was Snape with the Carrow siblings as at his side supporting him. They looked as smug as the last time I saw them in meetings
"The Carrow siblings are known for torture and cruelty..." I said out loud
"Think Ginny will be ok" Ron asked concerned
"If she goes under the radar..."
"Bloody chance of that when we're known as blood traitors" Ron said slipping further into his chair
"Neville Luna Dean and Seamus are still there, she'll be ok" I said reaching for his hand to comfort him
I knew how it felt caring for someone and not being able to find out if they're ok daily
I'm back to radio silence in my head
It's a lot like the manor...Ron squeezed my hand and then released it. During this hard point in our lives Ron and I understood each other the most
"Is that portrait of Phineas still here?" Hermione asked getting up from her seat "I don't know why I didn't think of this from the beginning" she muttered
We followed her to the portrait hanging in the hall way
She took it down and put it in her bag
"He can't spy on us now...I should have done it earlier though, we can't risk any of the portraits telling Snape our location"
So we walked around checking each portrait to see if any looked familiar, being very careful to not knock into my father's mother's portrait. I don't need her yelling at us right now
