Edith Wheeler for once in her life felt worthless. She lays down on the cold marble floor trying to not faint. She said one comment about shifting and they used the cruciatus curse again and again on her. She tries to imagine the boys reactions to seeing her like this. Helpless on the floor, unable to move from the pain. She imagines their worried faces.
That's when in her head she starts to form her plan. Anywhere better than this. She is leaving. Tomorrow. She will go to the Potters, they live in a big house and Euphemia Potter and Fleamont Potter love all of their sons friends like their own kids.
This gives the girl strength she stands up and holding onto the sides of walls and objects she walks herself back to her room. Before collapsing in the floor. The girl slowly packs all her stuff into her trunk before pushing it under her bed before collapsing under the covers falling asleep.
She awakes at 7:00 the next morning to knocking on her door.
"Come in" Her voice croaks.
"Good morning master Edith, your parents wish to see you." Star says passing me some buttered bread on a plate.
"Don't you get sick of here?" Edith asks her house elf who turns around slowly.
"I am not allowed to say Miss." She says playing with her hands.
"I am going to set you free." Edith says pulling out a Gryffindor jumper from her second year. She hands the jumper to the house elf who lights up with joy.
"Your setting me free?" The free elf asks bouncing around happily.
"On one condition, then you can do anything you like." Edith assures.
"Anything Master Edith." The house elf says sincerly.
"I am leaving, on my signal I want you to grab my stuff and to take me to Potter house. Do you think you can do that?" Edith asks hopefully.
"Yes, of course Master." The house elf says.
"Oh and Star?" Edith asks leaving the room.
"Yes master" The house elf replies.
"I am not your master, your a free elf, don't ever call me master again." Then she walks down the stairs and to the lounge where her parents are.
"Hello Darling." Her mother says polietly but you can tell she doesn't mean it.
"Cut to the chase, what do you want?" Edith says crossing your arms.
"Good question, your getting married." Her father answers plainly.
"To who?" The girl asks slightly confused.
"Lucius Malfoy" Her mother says beaming.
"No." Edith says firmly crossing her arms.
"What?" Her mother spits venomously.
"No for Merlin's sake, No!" The red head shouts fuming.
"Maybe this will change your mind" Her mother says whipping out her wand "Crucio!"
Edith cowers to the floor holding her flaming bones as they burn in pain.
"What about now?" Her mother asks standing smirking over her.
"No." The girl answers through gritted teeth.
"I don't understand." Her mother says stamping angrily "We have given you everything, we have given you whatever you wanted, but you always mess everything up. You worthless girl. Crucio!"
Edith falls to the rolling around in pain silent tears fall down her face begging it to stop.
"Now, now you worthless girl have you changed your mind?" Her mother asks bitterly.
Edith nods and the curse stops. She weakly stands up her whole body shaking from the strain.
"Have you got something to say?" Her mother taunts her.
"Yes" Edith replies weakly. "I think your wrong"
"Excuse me?" Her father spits.
"About giving me everything, your wrong" She says tears threatening to spill.
"You filthy brat!" Her mother spits.
Edith weakly replies "You spend your whole time wanting me to do this and that, that you have never actually looked in the mirror and realized what a mess you are yourself. Who are you to tell me what to do when you have never lived your life?"
"Why you little -" Her mother starts, but Edith has other plans shouting "Star Now!"
The house elf suddenly appears beside the shaking red head with her trunk in hand. Before her parents can blink they are gone.
The two land outside the Potter's house, Edith staggering on her feet towards the front door.
The Potters and Sirius who are eating dinner here a small pop from outside.
"What was that?" James asks his father.
"I don't know." His father replies slipping his wand out of his jacket and holding it raised in his hand.
There is a soft knock at the door and the handle opens to reveal a pale Edith struggling to keep on her feet. Tears down her face, her hair wet.
"Blue," Sirius says walking over and wraping his arms aound her allowing her to just fall into his arms while he takes her weight.
"Its okay, its okay." He says softly while the girl holds on for dear life.
"Edie, are you okay?" James says running over and stroking her back softly.
"What happened?" Sirius asks softly stroking her hair.
"Cruciatus cure..." The girl whispers quietly.
"Who?" Sirius asks softly but you can see his eyes are raging.
"My...my parents" The girl stutters.
"Okay, mum get the medical kit, dad contact Remus and see weather he can come early." James instructs stroking his best friends hair.
Sirius picks the girl up and softly lays her on the sofa. He strokes her hair whispering sweet words to her while the Potters do recovery spells and try to cheer her up. The whole night Sirius stays by her side watching her as she cries in her sleep. Gently stroking her hair. She doesn't deserve this.
