Suddenly the door opened all by itself. Crouch must have let me out. I walked towards to the door but no one was there. Off the in the distant down the hallway I heard the sounds of struggle. Running as quick as I could with my wand drawn, I made my way to Junior's room.

Slightly out of breathe I peered into the room afraid of what I would find. To my shock Junior was wide awake strangling the life out of his father. 

"Stupefy!" I yelled and point my wand at Junior. 

He becomes pinned down to the bed and Barty Crouch Sr is thrown to the other side of the room away from his son. This man was holding my family hostage and yet I still saved him. Sometimes being the good guy blows. 

I walk up to the side of the bed and held my wand at Junior's throat. He sits up with his arms raised. 

"Well hello there. Aren't you the pretty one? You must be one of father's play things."  He said in a bitter way. 

"Shut up. You knowing nothing." I said angrily. 

"She speaks too? Father this is not usually your type." Junior said to his father laughing. 

Minister Crouch got up from the ground and stood behind me. 

"Son, this girl saved your life." He said, trying to rationalize everything. 

"Well good, then she will be spared when Lord Voldemort takes over." He said smiling.

All of a sudden I felt a sharpness on my back. I turned around and Minister Crouch raised his wand towards me. 

"What are you doing? I thought we had a deal?" I asked scared. 

"The deal was I would let your family live if you saved my son. You have done so, and your family is safe back their home. You on the other hand are a different story. You've seen too much my dear. I do apologize for this. Avada K-" Crouch said. 

Just then I felt someone pull on my arm. It was Junior. He pulled me onto the bed and held me tight, putting his hand over my mouth. 

"Father! Shame shame! The noble Minister of Magic Barty Crouch about to use the Killing Curse on some girl? How the mighty fall. She must be important and for that reason I'm afraid I must take her from you. Goodbye father." Junior said.

Before Crouch could do anything a cloud of smoke surrounded us and we disappeared from the room.
