Forever the Lion and Badger

Falling

Waking up in the cold dark office was strange, how long have I been here? How long was I asleep? It must have been hours because now it was dark outside. I slowly got up wincing in pain, my body was sore and I could barely stand. I have to get out of here, I need to in order to survive. To see the two boys with red hair, their warm house and brothers. I still have to see what the future holds with Fred.

I have to leave. It's not like Elijah was my real father, no he was just a monster who acted like he was fixing me. Did I need fixing? He was probably right, my real father left me already, what makes me think he would want me now. I walked slowly to the front door, my sisters and Elijah must be asleep. This was my chance, I have to take it.

R- " Miss what happened to you?" A small voice said behind me before I could open the door. I turned around and was greeted with big eyes. Eyes that belonged to Elijah, his house elf, his name was Rimney. Rimney was always loyal to Elijah no matter the abuse he got, we grew close because of this.

S- " It's fine Rimney I have to go please forgive me, I wish I could bring you with me." I reached and grabbed his hand. The house elf wasn't use to this kind of contact, in fact he hated it unless it was me.

R- " Rimney understands miss, Rimney must stay for master. Take this miss." He reached into his handmade pocket in his house elf rags, I wish I could give him something else to wear but I couldn't. He handed me a ring with a red stone and dark green band.

R- " This was Mrs, Vane ring before Mr. Vane, it had belonged to your real father, Misses asked me to keep it safe until she left." I took the ring, this was a ring Tom gave my mother. This simple but captivating piece of jewelry, did he really love her? He clearly didn't love her enough to stay. I pulled Rimney into a tight embrace, I was shocked to feel two tiny arms circling me as well.

S- " I'll miss you Rimney, you were my only friend in this house. I promise you I will come back for you." I pulled away and looked into his big round eyes, he was everything warm in this cold estate. Not only did I lose my mother but I am losing a great friend in one day. I must continue on and not look back, I can never come back to live here.

I placed the ring onto my finger and opened the door, I couldn't apparate out of here I guess walking would have to do. I went to close the door and suddenly there was a broom on the floor, Rimney must have left it. He was always so quick and silent you never knew he was here or there. I grabbed the broom and tried to remember what Fred retaught me on how to fly the broom. I take a deep breath.

S- " Here we go, I can do this." I lifted up into the air and leaned forwards to move. It took awhile but I finally got the hang of flying. I didn't know where I was going, I just let my heart lead me wherever. My mum said she would be with me and I believe she would guide me to a good place.

Fred's POV

Everything felt wrong, the way she left and how her father took her like that. I was staring at the messy wrapped present on my little desk, I didn't get a chance to give it to her.

G- " Come on Fred, you have been staring at it for hours, it's time to sleep." George said while he rolled to look at his twin.

F- " George I can't sleep, what if something is wrong? We shouldn't have let her go with him. What if that's the last time I see her? Or what if Matt changes his mind and makes her lose her memory forever?" I rambled on

G- " Firstly Matt isn't that stupid to mess with us again, secondly we couldn't stop her dad even if we tried, Fred she will come back to us after everything I believe she will always find her way to us. Now go to bed." I got up and moved to my bed, the feeling of uncertainty still lingers around me. Something wasn't right.
