"Where is she?" Pansy looked around. "She should be here by now" she said.
The ground began to shake under them.
"What was that?" Pansy questioned, slightly scared.
Mattheo could see a dark figure watching them around the far corner. He could recognise that figure anywhere.
"I'll be back. Don't get yourself killed!" Mattheo demanded, walking off and leaving Pansy at the Ravenclaw entrance.
"You know... talking to her would be the better option, Theo" Mattheo mumbled, a small smirk forming.
The dark figure appeared from the darkness, mask covering his face. He slowly took the mask off to face Mattheo.
"And you shouldn't be here. Your father will kill you if he finds out you've been coming here every night" Theodore's croaky voice spoke.
Mattheo clenched his face in annoyance.
"How is she..? My.." Theodore stuttered.
"I don't know.." Mattheo lowered his head. His eyes softened, worry taking over his emotions.
Theodore and Mattheo shared looks.
"I'll find her. Please look after her in the meantime" Theodore nodded slightly towards where Pansy stood, looking around clueless.
"That won't be hard mate. Shes protected" Mattheo punched him playfully. "I'll see you soon".

Kiara woke up, coughing. She was no longer in the slytherin common room.
Her vision was blurred. "M..Matt?" She squinted her eyes.
"Close" Theodore reached his arm out, helping her from the ground.
"The..o" Kiara muttered, finally realising who it was. His smell. His voice.
Realisation kicked in, she pushed Theodore off her. "Where is he!" Kiara snapped.
"Where's who?" Theodore questioned
"Father." Kiara looked around hastily. "He tried to kill me!" She announced
"You're being delusional. Father wouldn't kill you. Neither one of us" Theodore said.
"I wouldn't be too sure about that" Kiara took a gulp of air.
"Kiara stop it!" Theodore scoffed. "Father wouldn't"
"He killed our mother!" Kiara snapped.
"Stop it!" Theodore snapped back. "He would never! Just stop it!" His voice raised
"But it's true! You have to believe me Theo.. I practically told me that night he threw me in his study room" Kiara pleaded, a tear running down her cheek as she made her way closer to her brother.
Theodore took a big gulp. Kiara could see that he was trying to hold himself back.
"It's.. it's not true.." his words trailed so hesitantly. A part of him possibly believing Kiara's words.
A loud crash nearby snapped their heads round.
"We have to go!" Kiara quickly announced grabbing onto her brother's hand, guiding him back up towards the main hallways.
Kiara and Theodore ran down towards the large crowd, crashing into someone as they turned the corner.
"Oh my.. KIARA! You're okay!" Pansy screeched, placing her hands on Kiara's arms in relief.
