TRULY REALITY [A Harry Potter Fanfiction]

66| Black Orbs

Cassie's POV:

I was really pissed off. Why would Anne have to burst out like that? I sat down at the bottom of the tree, and sighed when I heard the muffled yells of Draco and Anne.

I was really irritated and without thinking, walked out of the protected area. I walked in circles, and angrily kicked at the ground. I heard a crunch of leaves, and turned around to see Walburga Black in all her galore. My heart stopped, as I realized where I stood.

I patted my pocket, in search of my wand, but I realised that I had left it in the tree house. Fear took over me and I froze. My insides felt like they were doing summersaults. She didn't care to spend time much longer, she hit me with a spell and we apparated.

-----

A cold, dark room is where we were right now. A single lantern gave a small light to the room. I could make out Walburga standing in front of me. A cruel smile etched on her face.

Fear took over me, and I could not think. I didn't have a wand. My body was stiff and unmovable from the spell she cast on me. My mouth and mid were the only two things I could move.

"And we meet again. When the Death Eaters were alerted about you, I had to come and catch you myself." She said in a slow voice. She twirled her wand and walked around me. My breathing ragged, and I desperately hoped for someone to come and save me from here.

"What do you want now?" I asked.
"You" she said cooly.

"You took away my only protection, you made mine and Sirius' life unsafe. What more do you want?"

"My son's Gringotts account."

"Regulas?"

"No Sirius!"

"Since when did you consider Sirius as your son?"

"Ever since I realised that all the Black wealth went to him. I know you know the password to his account. I know you went alone to take money from it."

"No.... Sirius takes it for me." I said trying to act calm.

"Don't try to trick me foolish girl.. I saw you take it. I have inside men."

"What do I get from it though?" I asked

"You?!"

"I'm not doing free help!" I thought about it. If I told her the password, I could probably escape. But it was not right. Was it?

That's when my mind crosses over the mini account. It was a small account Sirius opened in my name, incase of emergencies. It didn't have that much money, just a few hundred galleons. This was my chance of escape, if I could negotiate.

"Fine. I'll give you the password to my money."

"Really?" She asked surprised.

"But on one condition." I said, staring into her eyes to show some kind of authority.

"What?" She asked; annoyed and rolling her eyes.

"You let me go."

She laughed maniacally. "Let you go? I'm going to get the money and the Dark Lord."

"Then I'm not going to give you the password."

"I can squeeze it out of you. You are powerless right now."

"Why kidnap me just for the money?"

"The thing you don't know Smith, is that Gringotts holds all our valuables. But you have something in you that will help me. And you know what it is. You also should know, that there are many cruel and evil things in there. Cursed things."
