A requested Harry X Reader from the ever so lovely Snowflake_Kisses21, thank you so much!! This one takes place during the Deathly Hallows. And I tried to simplify the battle a bit since...well...things are going on and I don't really want to go through too much of the battle.

"Greyback, take them downstairs," Narcissa Malfoy instructed the Death Eater/werewolf as she glared at the four of you with such loathing and hate it made you gulp and cower.

"Wait."

All eyes now turned to Narcissa Malfoy's younger sister, Bellatrix, also known as the murderer of Sirius Black and probably one of the ugliest Death Eaters you could ever imagine to see. Well, of course you've seen worse--Hermione had stunned Antonin Dolohov before and THAT wasn't a pretty sight to see either--but whatever the case, you just hated seeing her face sticking up everywhere.

"I would like to talk to both Mudbloods alone," she said now, pointing her wand at both you and Hermione with a sneer on her face, making you gulp.

"No!" Ron cried. "Don't take them! Take me instead!"

"Pah!" Bellatrix scowled at Ron now, shaking her head. "Oh, you will be next after I kill them both. Blood traitor is next to Mudblood in my book, you know."

"Don't you DARE lay a finger on them," Harry growled, his fists clenching hard at the sight of you in Bellatrix's clutches. But Bellatrix just laughed.

"Oh, that probably won't be guaranteed," Bellatrix said lightly with a hint of poisonous sweetness that made you cringe. Then she turned back to Greyback. "Take the Potter boy and that other boy downstairs. Do not do anything to them until I give my word."

"At once," Greyback bowed, taking Harry and Ron downstairs to the cellar, where you could hear the door slam with a BANG!

Bellatrix chuckled now as she whipped out two knives, pressing the both of you to the walls behind you first before bringing the blades to your throats. You whimpered as she did, biting your lip and trying not to scream or cry. Yes, what Bellatrix said was true. You were a Mudblood, much like Hermione--a witch with Muggle parents who both spent a living as doctors. And now a young student in Ravenclaw and one of the trio's closest friends, you voluntarily decided to go with Harry and Ron and Hermione on this trip to destroy You Know Who's Horcruxes, mostly to help Harry defeat him. But you were never aware of the dangers ahead.

"So! You claim to possess the legendary sword of Godric Gryffindor, do you?" Bellatrix asked icily, pressing the blade deeper into Hermione's throat, making her scream. "Well, go on, tell me!"

"NO!" you cried in Hermione's defense. "No, we don't, it was found! We found it!"

"Damn you!" Bellatrix screamed. "You're lying to me! I KNOW YOU'RE LYING!"

"NO WE'RE NOT!" you finally cried before you felt the edge of the blade pressed further into your flesh, making you scream now. But what you didn't know was that at the same time, Harry and Ron were yelling for both you and Hermione with every sound of protest that leaves your mouth.

"How sweet of you, trying to get out of that," Bellatrix snarled. "But you know you'll never succeed. Snape had placed the sword in MY vault at Gringotts! And it can't just happen to be lying around in the Forest of Dean where you were!"

Both you and Hermione screamed as the blade went further into your throats.

"Well?! What else did you take from my vault? WHAT ELSE?!" she bellowed, pulling out her wand and pointing at the both of you. "CRUCIO!"

An immediate wave of pain sent you and Hermione screaming, but even in the pain you were wise enough not to say anything.

"WE WEREN'T AT YOUR VAULT!" Hermione protested.
