"Looks like the Irish have got their pride on." Fred said. There was shouting and a huge crash. Then Arthur rushed up to my dads. "Arthur, what's-" Remus started. "That's not the Irish." Arthur said. Sirius and Remus looked outside and when they came back in, I immediately recognized the looks on their faces. Danger. "We have to get out of here." Arthur said. We all left the tent and it was complete chaos. "Everyone stay together. Anna, do not leave my side." Remus said. "Fred, George, Ginny is your responsibility." Arthur said. We started to run but there were people everywhere. Running in all directions and there were tents burning. Then I heard it.
"Harry!" Hermione yelled. I looked over and he got pulled away. "Harry!" I yelled. There were death eaters everywhere and I knew what that meant. I yanked away from my dad's tight grip and ran after Harry. "Annabelle no!" Remus screamed. I could see them being sucked into the crowd but I ran anyway. I caught up to Harry and wrapped my arms around him. "Annabelle, stay with me." he said. He took me under his shoulder and covered my head as we tried to make our way back. Then Harry tripped and I went down too. "Harry, cover your head." I said. But someone knocked his head into a rock and he closed his eyes. I shook him but he was out. I just laid over his chest and covered his head. There was fire all around us and it smelled of smoke. There was nobody to be seen. Harry laid there and I could feel his heartbeat under my chest. "Harry" I whispered. I shook him again. "Harry, please wake up." I whispered, shaking him. "Harry, wake up, I will not lose my brother to some-" I started. Then his eyes opened and he smiled. "Oh thank merlin." I said hugging him. "You called me your brother." he said smugly. "Shut up." I said. Then I saw a man in the distance. He had his wand drawn and he was sifting through the wreckage. "No, it's nice. You are my family and I-" he started. "No Harry, seriously shut up." I whispered, clamping my hand over his mouth. I pointed to the man and he sat up and pushed me behind him. "Morsmordre!" the man yelled and pointed his wand to the sky. With an explosion, a green skull appeared with a snake coming out of it.

"Anna, we have to get back to the port key," he said. "Wait, just-" I started as I pulled out my camera. "Seriously Anna, not now." he said, pulling it away. I yanked it back and took a picture of the skull and snake in the sky. Then I aimed my lens at the man. I clicked the button and snapped a photo. But the flash went off. "Anna!" Harry exclaimed. The man saw us and we got up and started running. "Really Anna, the flash?" he asked as we ran. "Can we focus on not dying right now?" I asked. We crouched behind a tent and Harry's head was on a swivel. I looked down at the camera and the picture was fuzzy but I could see a bit. He looked familiar. I could figure it out. There were these flashes in my head, almost like memories and it was like he was a part of them but not. Then I felt someone grab me and yank me down. Hermione and Ron had found us and the man was gone. "Stupefy!" There were red flashes and we ducked. Harry covered my head and I buried my face in his chest. "Stop! That's our kids!" Sirius yelled as he ran over. "Dads!" I exclaimed as I hugged them. "Annabelle, what happened? Are you alright?" Remus asked as he looked me over. "I'm fine, dad. I'm ok." I said. "Which of you conjured it?" another man asked. "Barty, you can't think-" Arthur started. "Do not lie. You've been discovered at the scene of the crime." he said pointing his wand at us. "They're just kids Barty." Arthur said. "Crime, what crime?" Harry asked. "That's the dark mark Harry. It's his mark." I whispered. "Those are our children and I am an Auror for the Ministry, now lower your wand." Sirius snapped. Barty lowered his wand and stepped back. Harry was holding my hand tightly and I looked at him nervously. "Those men-in the masks, they're his- his followers?" Harry asked. "Yes. Death Eaters." Sirius said. "Follow me," Barty said and the ministry workers started to leave. "Wait-" I said. "There was a man. Anna-" he started and I elbowed him. "There was a man. The one who conjured it. He went that way." I said. Harry looked at me strangely. "I'll assist." Sirius said. They all started to leave and Remus hugged Sirius and gave him a kiss. "Be safe." he said. I hugged my dad tightly. "I love you dad." I whispered. "I love you too kiddo." he said. Then he smiled and went with them.
As we walked back to the portkey, Harry grabbed my arm and we walked behind everyone. "Why didn't you give them the photo?" he whispered. "What?" I asked. Play dumb, it might work. "Anna, you took one of the man. Why didn't you give it to them?" he asked. I shrugged. "It was blurry and it didn't come out. It's useless." I lied. He gave me a curious look. "Then let me see." he said. I rolled my eyes. "What? You don't believe me?" I asked. "No, I just want to see." he said, reaching for my camera. I yanked it away quickly. "The lens is fragile." I said. He scoffed at me. "The lens is fragile?" he asked. I nodded. "I know you Annabelle. Whatever is on that camera, whatever you saw, it triggered something in you. I know you'll tell me eventually." he said. Then he walked and caught up to Ron. "Are you alright kiddo?" dad asked. I nodded. "Just shaken up. It was scary." I said. He nodded and gave me a hug. "Well you gave me quite the scare too." he said. "I'm sorry." I said. He smiled. "I know you just wanted to protect Harry and I love that about you. But next time don't run off into a crowd of death eaters." he said. I smiled and nodded. "I'll be more careful. I swear." I said. He nodded. Then we went back home.
