Theodora's POV-
"Mum, I don't want to," I said, pulling a cover over my face.
"You have too. The Dark Lord chose you." She whispered, trying to pull the cover off, but I held onto it tight.
"Can't he just talk to you?" I asked.
"Are you kidding! Of course not!" Mum muttered, finally managing to throw off the covers. I signed, looking up at her.
"Why did my dad do it? He tried to help so many muggles, and supported them? Why would he join him? Why would you not tell me?" Mum signed, sitting down on the bed.
"He did. He tried to support, but your father ended up doing something stupid, so stupid it got him caught by the death eaters. It was either be dead or join. I told him to join. Now, he's stuck in Azkaban, and the Dark Lord has asked for you." He said. I signed, but nodded.
"Fine, I'll change." I huffed, and she nodded, before standing up and walking out of the room, shutting the door behind her. I locked it after her, before going into my closet and changing into a black shirt and black top.
I pulled my hair into a ponytail, before going downstairs, where Voldemort was sitting at the front of my dinning table. He smiled at me, as I avoided eye contact, and sat down next to my mother.
"Ah, Theodora, now that you're here, I can finally make the announcement." He said, there were only a couple people here, must death eaters were taken away to Azkaban.
"W-what announcement, my lord?" Mum asked, gripping my hand.
"Theodora, you will replace your father as a death eater."
I felt my heart drop to my gut, and the pain in my hand as my Mum squeezed it tighter.
"B-but my lord she's sixteen," My mother whispered, and he laughed.
"Age does not matter when you are a death eater!" Some people started laughing as my mother flushed a little.
"What is that around your neck?" Voldemort asked. I clutched the necklace, not realizing I didn't tuck it in my shirt.
"It's just my necklace."
"It's not just a necklace my lord, it's a locket." Bellatrix laughed before she grabbed my locket, ripping it off my neck.
"Hey!"
"Be quiet, child!" She yelled, as she handed it to the dark lord. He opened it before his grin disappeared.
"Draco Malfoy." He scoffed. I flushed. It had been just of Draco's face this time.
"Boyfriend?"
"Ye-no we broke up." I lied. Voldemort threw it on the ground, and nodded.
"Good. Now we can discuss your task." I stayed silent, staring at the table as he continued.
"Kill Dumbledore." Mum gasped as the rest of the table smiled.
"That's your task, do it or Draco Malfoy, and your family will die."
"Yes," I whispered, blinking away some tears.
"Come," He said, lifting his wand up. I stood up on shaking legs and extended my arm out to him. He gripped it, his nails digging in to my skin as he placed his wand in my skin, branding me forever.

It burned, even after it had been a couple day since I was branded, but I needed to do one very important thing. I grabbed my quill and parchment paper before sitting down at my desk.
Dear Draco,
I don't know how to tell you, but we are breaking up. I'm sorry. I love you.
I signed and crumpled the paper up before throwing it in the trash. I signed, writing about three or five more, before deciding on the one I would send.
Dear Draco,
We had a nice time together, but I think our time is done. I'm sorry, I really am. I just can't any longer.
Sincerely,
Theodora Jones.
I read it over one more time, before nodding and tying it to my owl's leg.
Short and sweet, that's the best thing I need to do.

Draco's POV-
Tap, tap, tap.
I heard. I groaned into my pillow. The order of phoenix was changing their station from Sirius' home to our home.
"Mum! Stop knocking on my room." I groaned as I heard the tapping sound again. I opened my eyes, seeing Dora's owl on my window. I jumped up excitedly, grinning as I opened my window, letting it.
I untied the letter and handed him some food before it flew away. I ripped the letter open, my smile slipping as I read it.
Where is this coming from?
I thought,
Have I said something wrong? Have I done something wrong?
I took some deep breaths, trying to figure out what happened.
What is going on?
Before I even thought, I ripped the letter into tiny pieces, and handed it over to my owl.
"Take it away, throw it away! I don't care where! Just take it! I never want to see it again!" I yelled, as I opened the window and it flew away.
I hate you, Jones.
I thought, as I felt angry, and started smashing some things in my room.
A/N- Sorry, it's a short chapter.
