Barney Killer| Wattys 2016

the chase and aftermath

We turned down alleyways, down the wrong way of the road which caused a lot of tyre screeching and horns blaring, we even shot down a bridge much to everyone's annoyance. We went down a alley way across from parliament and wander through a maze of streets. The van started to slow showing signs of its ambush. Controlling my bike with one hand I turned my wand into a metal staff with a curl on the end of it and opened the van doors by placing it on the handle and yanking it open.

Lilly was in lion form and hanging from her paws om the ceiling! She appeared to be unconcious and i was confused. Lilly knew the risks and we had agreed to not transform unless nessarcary. I jumped in, much to annoyence of The Barney Killer. She was sitting in the front seat and there was a guy sitting next to her. Instead of eliminating them I ignored the pueoke haired bombshell and companion. I was untieing Lilly instead. I was neaely done when I felt a sharp pain in the back of my head and spun round but the object connected with my forehead knocking me out.

I felt waves at my toes? Wait beach? No London still. I could hear the roar of traffic and looking over my right shoulder i saw the London Eye. I sat up and looked to my left and saw Q still bound in tape. I rolled over and untied him and gently shook him awake. "Im alive" he opened his eyes and looked into my piercing green ones "God Beth your left eye" I reached my hand up shaking sand felt blood pulsing out my eye. That is probably not good, no that's definetly bad. I tried my ear piece but it didn't work, "Q can you mend my ear piece, I have a nail kit"

Sitting on a bench overlooking the themes we looked a right pair. Me with my bloody eye and lumpy head then Q with cut up face adorned with broken class hair accessories. "Fixed" he handed me back my in ear piece "where's yours" I asked as I put it back "lost it" he looked around when it was in the thames, somewhere. Here goes nothing i spoke into my speaker "#notdead" it seemed to take a age but the cries of "OH MY FUCKIN GOD" and "BETH BLOODY HELL" were soon heard "right I'm coming down " that was Beth and John simultaneously. I spoke again "Guys have you recovered Lilly?"

The silence was the answer I had been dreading. I sat there numb with shock. Sure people had kidnapped John, Sherlock, even Jack but no one had messed with my best friends Lilly and Beth. Ever. They were going to pay, big time

"Beth you have simply sustained a gash to part of and surrounding your eye. And a broken ankle" John remarked "ambulance" he looked at Q "ambulances are on their way. Let's have a look at you" while he inspected Q I spoke to Beth well we hugged and shared a tear. Shortly after my call I saw John clinging for dear life on the back of Beth in wolf form. Lestaurades team were combing the beach but to no success. I looked at my best friend of many years who looked worse for wear "Beth i solemnly swear to find Lilly and" I looked at John "cough kill cough find them. " Beth laughed then said "Im going for a prowl so you want me to pick Jack up?" "Yeah" it was at this point the ambulances arrived I hopped over while John helped Q over. I looked up as I heard a familiar voice "Beth? " the ambulance driver looked at me "Cat?"

I will explain: Cat was a year above and one of the chasers for Hufflepuff Quidditch team. We were friends after I saved her during the Triwizard tournament. She had been one of the few believers that believed that a new voldemort had been born. "Ambulance strike so MUM ambulances have been drafted in" she chatted happily "Now what has happened since graduation" i said. We chatted all the way to hospitals then exchanged numbers. MOM to those of you that don't know is Ministry of magic that can go quickly to scenes where magic injuries have occured in muggle areas. To muggles they were simply special areas within the emergency surface and more recently the armed forces.

"Beth" I was ambushed by Jack "im fine broken ankle, not for long, gash to the eye and no major head wounds just a couple lumps " "glad to hear it" he chuckled then I was ambushed by everyone "God your ok" "Magic awesome" "your eye!" "Your head" we're heard all round. It took hours but finally I was alone, and now the next mission was find Lilly.
