*Alora POV*
"Look.... there's something you need to know. Something-... I should have told you from the beginning." Ominis stated, moving forward, shielding me. His grip on his wand tight. "I withheld information from her........, when I found out there was a secret passage inside Azkaban, I-...I didn't believe it........ I thought it was just some lunatic woman giving me misleading information to get the pain to stop. And-...."
I looked up, Sebastian's eyes full of rage, then flickering to me every few seconds.
Shit.
Ominis sighed, "... I didn't want to subject Alora to running down a dark path looking for something to give her false hope of trying to find you. It wasn't until recently that I realized I was wrong."
Sebastians deathly steps creeped in closer. His chest heavy, nostrils flaring, dark eyes. The same eyes I've seen so many times of losing himself.
My wand dropped from the inside of my sleeve, feeling the air around us become even denser. The breath of life being sucked away, our friendships barely holding on by a thread.
"I'm sorry...... Sebastian. It's my fault.... I was trying to protect her but-.. I just pushed her away from me anyway....." He turned to look over his shoulder, apologizing through his white eye, sincerely.
Sebastian stopped, only a step or two away. "This entire time Ominis, I've been blaming her!!! You selfish fucking bastard-!" He said through his teeth.
"I did what I had to, to protect her Sebastian-"
"The only protection she needed was FROM YOU OMINIS-!" He yelled, advancing him again.
"You know nothing of protection! Stop talking to me like all a sudden now you give a shit for her! You weren't fucking there! You weren't there when she needed you! I was! I WAS!" He screamed, motioning to himself " WHILE YOU SAT AND SPEWED ABOUT A PAST THAT WAS ORIGINALLY YOUR FAULT!" Jabbing into Sebastian's chest with his finger.
He was right..... I hated it, I hated it so much, but he was right......
Ominis had been there for me through everything... anything I needed. He was right there, all along.
"Look at you.... thinking your all noble, when all you're going to do is end up destroying everything good about her." Sebastian spit out.
Ominis smiled sickly, challenging him "I won't need to........ for you, have already done that!! I've been picking up the pieces of what you broke-!"
"Thats enough."
"Alora-" Ominis interjected.
"I said, that's ENOUGH!"
Sebastian took a few immediate steps back. Grasping what seemed to be Anne's wand from his pocket, readying his stance in defense.
"Sebastian-" I warned.
"Come on then, let's see how much you've really grown, the mighty noble savior against the fugitive of Azkaban!" Sebastian taunted.
Ominis shook his head in complete shock, grasping his wand at the ready. A low and dark chuckle coming from him. "Are we really going to do this again Sebastian! After all we've been through, this is how you repay me?!"
"Drop both your wands, THATS ENOUGH!" I yelled, stepping in between the two of them.
"Alora get the hell out of the way-" Sebastian yelled at me.
"NO! Ominis please-!" I pleaded
"You really think dueling me in front of her is going to do anything for you! She came home with me, she CHOSE ME! After you threw her away like she was nothing!"
Fuck... no no no no no NO!
"I will disarm the both of you before you even cast a fucking curse, DROP IT!"
I have to stop this!
"Alora, move before he does something reckless!" Ominis yelled at me.
Sebastian laughed, "The only thing reckless is watching her marry someone that withheld information of the person she loved in Azkaban for over nine years, GAUNT!"
No......... fucking don't-..... NO!
I tried sucking in air, feeling my chest want to explode. The betrayal, the hurt, the pain, the burns, the constant crying, the untouched love, Ominis, Sebastian. Over and over.
Ominis.
Sebastian.
Ominis.
Sebastian.
OMINIS!
SEBASTIAN!
I-....
FUCKING CAN'T-.......
DO THIS!
Damn it!!!
I turned to Sebastian, his dark menacing eyes flashing up to me for a second.
"Alora, move."
"No." I challenged, "I won't let you hurt him."
"Move!" He yelled at me.
But I refused. Planting my feet into the ground.
He rolled his eyes, his quick steps coming for me.
"If you put one hand on her Sebastian, I swear to merlin I will resort to dark measures-!" Ominis threatened, hearing a touch of worry in his voice.
But he kept coming.
"Alora!" Ominis yelled for me.
Two steps.
One.
His hand reaching, but he had forgot who I was.
For an auror.... never gets caught.
In one quick movement, the ancient magic increasing in my veins, I grabbed his hands that went for my shoulders, twisting them behind his back, swiping his knees from underneath him. Losing his balance, he fell before me.
A silvery magic band cuffed around his hands to hold him. Watching him struggle, pushing against it as he dropped Anne's wand to the ground.
"Release me damn it!!" He groaned.
I came to stand infront of him, looking down as his harsh eyes looked upon me.
He struggled, "Got some new skills I see." He chuckled lowly, "Tell me Alora..... this seems awfully familiar doesn't it?"
My lips pinching shut. Jaw tightening as I looked down at the man that haunted me.
"Keeping me captive while you run off, saving my sister.... Maybe this time you'll actually let me watch as you make a world of decisions on your own." He snapped.
I gritted my teeth, feeling the tears start to brim again as I pictured the moment. The haunted memory.
"What do you want from me.... Sebastian. You want me to hurt? For the nine years that was taken from you.... Or do you simply can't stand the fact that I chose Ominis, when he was the one that kept me from you...."
He stood slowly, towering over me as he came immensely close to my face. His dark smirk, our eyes battling for dominance.
"I want you to remove these fucking restraints, and when you do......" he chuckled lowly, leaning down to my mouth. "... that pretty little mouth of yours will be on mine again."
No......
"Only then... will you come back to your senses of who your heart truly desires, Alora."
Tears stained my cheeks. The saltiness running over my lips.
You can't do this to me......
Not now when-...
He smiled, "You've awakened me."
