~Draco's POV~

I'm sitting with Emberlee and Nyla when Wormtail comes in.

"We believe Harry Potter has been found," he says. "We need you to clarify."

I look at my girls and give them both a kiss on the forehead before I leave the room.

I find my father in the hall with a half dozen snatchers who have hold of Ron, Hermione, Ben, Ginny, Hollie and Harry.

I just stare at Harry as Bellatrix has hold of him.

"Well?" Bellatrix asks.

"I can't be sure."

"Draco," father says as he grabs my neck. "Look closely, son. If we are the ones to hand Potter over to the Dark Lord, everything would be forgiven and he may let you and Emberlee go. All would be as it was, you understand?"

"Now, we won't be forgetting who actually caught him, I hope, Mr Malfoy," Scabior says.

"You dare to talk to me like that in my own house?" Lucius snaps.

"Lucius," mother calms him before she moves him away from me.

"Don't be shy, sweetie," Bellatrix says. "Come over."

I move over next to Harry.

"Now, if this isn't who we think it is, Draco, and we call him, he'll kill us all," she says. "We need to be absolutely sure."

"What's wrong with his face?" I ask.

"Yes, what is wrong with his face?"

"He came to us like that?" Scabior declares. "Something he picked up in the forest, I reckon."

"Or ran into a Stinging Jinx. Was it you, dearie?"

She walks over to others.

"What names did you give them?" I whisper.

"Vernon Dudley and Petunia Marjorie," he whispers back.

"Give me their wands," Bellatrix orders. "We'll see what their last spells were."

"This isn't Harry Potter," I say, standing up. "This is Vernon Dudley; he was in the year above the Potter triplets, a year below me."

Bellatrix gasps as she turns, and stops.

"What is that?" she asks and I follow her gaze to a sword in the belt of one of the snatchers. "Where'd you get that from?"

It was in that ugly bird's bag when we searched them. Reckon it's mine now."

She blasts him and catches the sword before attacking the snatcher.

"GET OUT!" she demands and they race out of the hall. "Cissy, put the boys in the cellar. I want to have a little conversation with these three, girl-to-girl.

Ben, Ron and Harry are led out of the room.

~Ben's POV~

We are led down to the cellar where we are chucked into a cell.

"What are we gonna do?" Ron asks, frustrated. "We can't leave the girls alone with her."

"Ron?" I hear a voice and we turn as somebody comes towards us.

"Harry? Ben?"

Ron uses his Deluminator and we can see its Luna.

"Luna?"

~Hollie's POV~

Bellatrix has me pinned to the floor while Hermione and Ginny watch helpless as they are being held by two Death Eaters.
