Cathy's POV

I watched as my mum and dad ran around the house panicking.

Just an hours ago we were all dancing happily in the kitchen.

Now they were looking for their wands and calling the aurors.

Why?

Just because some death eaters decided me was the perfect time to start burning the town next to ours.

Mum came over to me "You're going to the neighbors. Ok?" she said, a had hand on my shoulder and one on my face.

I only nodded with a half hearted smile on my face to show I was listening.

This wasn't the first time it's happend.

I knew the drill.

When I got to the neighbour house mom and dad both gave me a kiss and a hug and "I love u's  were exchanged.

I helped the Watson-Holmes family cook and make dinner.

As we ate together we had a pleasant conversation about what they did when they were young, it was always fun hearing their stories.

After dinner John went upstairs to sleep, wishing us goodnight, while Sherlock stayed here with me.

We sat together pn the couch and watched a movie.

Mr holmes fell asleep at some point and I was getting tired to.

Right as I was about to drift of into peaceful sleep, I was startled awake by something.

I thought I was simply the tv that was still on, but I heard something outside.

I ignored it, thinking that it was just the imagination of my tired mind.

But when I heard it again, along with voices and thoughts of the people outside I woke up Sherlock.

He told me to hide.

So I did.

I went up the stair to their bedroom where john slept and hid in a cupboard.

I listened as Mr Holmes walked bellow me through the house.

A loud explosive like noise was heard, John woke up and I flinched.

I heard a voice shouting something that I couldn't make out.

And suddenly I heard someone screaming and banshee like laughter.

He looked around confused as he got out of bed.

I peeked out from my hiding place.

He saw me and put a fimger on his lips, telling me to keep quiet.

I did.

He reached for the gun as he heard someone coming up the stairs.

He started panicking for some reason but tried to mask it for my sake, but I still saw through it.

The person came closer and he motioned for me to hide again.

Then he grabbed a lamp and stood by the door waiting.

I heard the door open and heard something being smashed, probably the lamp, a scream, and soomething clattering on the ground quite close to me.

Then I heard grunting and something that sounded like punches.

I wanted to see what was happening so I opened it just enough to see, but not be seen.

John was fighting the guy, the guy was good but John was better and was winning.
