No time to die | Harry James Potter ¹

XLIV

Y/n's breath was rushed as she shot up in her bed at the burrow. She heard steps coming towards her room. Her eyes drifted to the door. Seeing Harry stand in the doorway, she stood up, getting her morning robe and putting it on.

"What the bloody hell are you doing up?" she asked in a whisper as they walked down the stairs. "I-I heard something as if something arrived outside" he whispered. And she stopped in her step. Her hands were fumbling in her pockets, she had the gun... And her wand.

She shakily took her wand in her hand and walked outside, Harry behind her. "Well if it isn't Y/n Lestrange!" A voice said. Her head quickly turned to the voice to see Greyback standing there.

"If it isn't the filthy werewolf." she spat. "Nice to see you not holding a wand in my direction," she said looking him up and down.

And as quick as Greybacks wand was raised, she grabbed the gun from her pocket holding it up to him. She cocked the gun back and smirked "I'll have your head off faster than you can ever imagine." "I don't believe you." "want to try it out then?" she asked turning her head a bit.

She shot harry a look which he understood. Harry raised his wand. "Incendio!" barely missing the Werewolf's head. And this woke up the others, just like she wanted.

Greyback screamed angrily. "Enough! This childish little game has been going on for far too long! Stupify!" He missed harry as he shot the spell and harry shot a spell back, which blasted Greyback onto the grass, as the others hurried outside, most of their wands in hand. Suddenly, more deatheaters appeared.

Y/n rushed to Greyback as people were fighting. She held him by his shoulder, the gun pressed against the side of his head yelling "Hey! If one of you even dare to shoot a spell again I will blast his head off" she yelled, some people looked in her direction as someone started to charge at her.

She turned the gun in their direction and shot, the person apparating away before the bullet can hit them"I can do this all day." she smiled, and her smile turned into a frown as she saw more people charge at her and her family.

And then as she got a look from Draco saying to help, she put the gun away and instead got out her wand, stunning greyback and heading into the fight, she shot spells at deatheaters who dared to approach her. And then she faced the face which made her smile fade. "Y/n. My precious y/n" Bellatrix said. "Tell me, why are you doing this?" "Doing what?" "betraying your people" Bellatrix whispered and Y/n almost choked on her spit

"I'm not betraying anyone.." y/n whispered back, holding her wand at the ready, but Bellatrix not shooting a spell at her.

"You are, but you don't notice it yet. Why don't I make you remember?" "Remember what?" she asked. "Remember what we do with traitors," Bellatrix said, her wand shooting a spell at Y/n. Making her run.

"You can run, but you can't hide Y/n! I will catch you!" Bellatrix yelled, "incendio!" she set fire to the field, running after Y/n.

Y/n's breath was heavy as she ran, shooting spells behind her, trying to lose her curly-headed aunt.

"You will always be a traitor Y/n! always!" Bellatrix yelled laughing, chasing after the girl.

The other death eaters have disappeared now, and they were glad they survived until Ginny spoke "Where is Y/n?" the running girl running out of the field that burned behind her and to the people she considered her family, right into Ginny's arms, who shielded her as Bellatrix smirked as she came out. "You won this time, but this won't be the last" before apparating away

Hermione rushed to the two girls hugging Y/n tightly pressing a kiss to her head.

"Stupid" a voice hissed.

She looked around "did any of you say anything?" "no. Y/n are you feeling well?" Lily asked placing a hand on her forehead.

"Boo," a voice said and she let out a shriek. "Who the hell is doing this?" she asked angrily.

"Nobody y/n. At least none of us" Leo said looking around holding his wand warily.

"You are all the same, Hello? I'm right here" the voice said travelling from one ear to another.

She shook her head, beginning to walk inside after the others.

"Rest a bit darling, We've got a wedding to prepare for," Molly said kissing the top of Y/n's head and then she walked up the stairs

She sat in her room, starting at the ceiling "Hello?" the voice said and Y/n looked around. No one to find.

Until she catches the eyes of... Her mother? "Mom?" she asked and the figure shakes her head "well, in a sense of way, yes, but I'm a figment of your mind, imagine me as. A memory in a way, but it's rather your mind controlling me" She said and Y/n nodded confused.

"So.. Are you dead? Let's cut the slack" the figure sighed "Hun, I told you. I'm a figment of your mind, your mind created me, I don't know if I'm dead or not, because I'm not me. I'm sort of... Emotional support, I can't remember either what happened to me" She said crossing her legs.

"But- explain to me- how?" "Babe, if it were that easy I would have done it. Imagine this is your mind" Persephone- well the imaginative Persephone held up a chocolate frog, "now, when you are exhausted, you can start to hallucinate" Persephone exclaimed, tapping on the chocolate frog. "And I? Am a hallucination in a kind of way. Not really but, lets just say if you're not exhausted anymore I won't go away" "Wouldnt be the first time" Y/n exclaimed looking at her as she pretended to be offended.

"Jokes aside, figure shit out, you can't rely on other people all the time. It's not like I did" Persephone smirked and Y/n gritted her teeth "you know what you did? You left a baby alone, a deadbeat mother is all you are." "I didn't abandon you, you found my notebook, didn't you?" She raised an eyebrow and Y/n nodded.

"Well, then you heard I travelled in time before. And when you're in the wrong place, at the wrong time. Shit happens." she shrugged and Y/n scoffed. "I'm not blaming you or anything, but don't make yourself look like a saint" Persephone licked her lips looking up.

"But you're not exactly a Saint either, are you?"
