"Your timing was horrible." Ursa says to Snape through the connection. "They came before I could escape."
"Sorry I told you as soon as I knew." Snape replies.***
"Where did you go Bellatrix?" Narcissa asks Bellatrix when she returns. Bellatrix ignores Narcissa and heads to the cellar.
"Where did they go?" Draco asks Narcissa.
"She did not say anything."
"Let go of me you mutt!" They hear Ursa yell.
"Ursa? Where are they?"
"Where is it?" Bellatrix asks Ursa in the cellar, where Greyback is restraining Ursa.
"Why would I tell you?" Ursa snaps.
"Last chance, where is your wand?"
"No."
"You know you could just pat her down." Greyback says.
"Then I could not do this." Bellatrix says as she draws her wand. "Crucio!" Ursa screams echo through the manor and Narcissa and Draco follow the sound. "Where is it?" Bellatrix asks when she stops.
"Hip." Ursa answers through gritted teeth. Bellatrix takes Ursa's wand from her hip and smiles.
"Now was that so hard?" Bellatrix pockets Ursa's wand and puts her wand to Ursa's head. "Now to deal with your treachery. Crucio!" Bellatrix curses Ursa as Narcissa and Draco reach the cellar.
"Bellatrix, what are you doing?" Narcissa asks as she tries to grab Bellatrix's arm. Bellatrix pushes Narcissa away.
"Get her out of here Draco." Bellatrix snaps. Draco hesitates and Narcissa draws her wand. She points it at Bellatrix but Draco restrains her before she can cast anything.
"Stop hurting her!" Narcissa says as tears fall from her eyes.
"Now Draco!" Draco tries to take Narcissa away gently but has to resort to dragging her. Draco manages to get Narcissa away and upstairs. Bellatrix stops cursing Ursa.
"Now can I have her?" Greyback asks.
"I told you the Dark Lord will want to be the one to kill her."
"Fine." Greyback says as he pushes Ursa to the ground before he goes upstairs. Bellatrix stays at the door for a minute, casting protections. Ursa crawls to the nearest wall and sits with her knees to her chest.
Upstairs, Narcissa pins Bellatrix to the wall when they arrive. "How dare you hurt my daughter after I told you not to." Narcissa says.
"She is not your daughter anymore." Bellatrix says. "As the oldest living Black, she is disowned now."
"You cannot do that."
"Yes I can. She is a blood-traitor and a traitor to the Dark Lord. I have been tolerating her because of you but betraying the Dark Lord is where I draw the line."
"Let me talk to her."
"Why? Just accept the truth already Narcissa. She was never planning to protect you like she promised."
"I want to talk to her."
"Fine, if that will finally make you accept it." Bellatrix, Narcissa, and Draco go back downstairs and stand outside the cell like door.
