Chapter 9:

(Ellie's POV)

As we left the portal entrance, she took my hand once again and then blinked us to the doorway of our old house. It was similar to the house we left, just not as many acres of additional land. The house was Georgian style, the walls covered in large windows and a grand doorway. The land around it was looking derelict and the house looked dated and unkept.

"Now this won't do." My mother spoke. She tore a dandelion out of the ground and blew on the plant, the stems on the dandelion spreading across the grass and house. Like a veil, it was washing and restoring the house to how it was before we left.

"Better." She said.

"Now we need to protect this house. News will spread of us leaving and people will use this as an oppurtunity to attack. We need to channel my power to the house so we can be protected. No one can enter the grounds without our permission." She said putting the grimoire down on the ground and taking my hands into hers.

"Sub pedibus terram protege et ne transgressores transeant" She chanted. As she spoke, the veil from the dandelions spread over the house and then a bright light locked it in place before it became invisible.

"Come on. Lets get inside." She stated letting my hands go, picking up the book and walking inside. It felt surreal as I walked like I was going into a past life as I walked through the door. My mother used her magic to close the door behind us with her finger.

(Harry's POV)

"Oh mother of god what is that?" Liam spoke making us all turn in the direct he was facing. We saw as a Dragon like creature was coming towards our direction. Dragons? Really?

"It's coming towards us." Niall commented.

"I thought you said we're in Cottershire." Zayn asked 

"I said the outside of it."

"Since when were there dragons in Cottershire?"

"I don't know but we're not staying here to find out what it wants." Zayn said. We all went to him and put our hands on his. I could hear his inner thoughts and could see a restriction. 

"Why isn't it working?" Zayn muttered.

"We need to get out of here." Niall said. As we were about to run for it, the dragon gently transforms into a male figure. The others tried to run but were being stuck by an invisible boundary. 

"Wow. You boys are smart aren't you?" I heard a familiar voice speak. I tried focusing on the figure as it came closer towards us and recognised it was Ryan, Ellie's Dad.

"And I was even fooled to think you would stay in there for the rest of eternity, How wrong was I?" He said sarcastically laughing to himself as the end of his comment.

"Ryan?" Louis asked.

"And point to the main man at the back" Ryan replied. We all started walking away from him when all of a sudden a force pulled us back facing him. We all ended up in the air with branches wrapped around our ankles and wrists. I tried to struggle out of the branches but the more I resisted the tighter the branches would get.

"Tut tut tut boys, it's rude to walk away from someone who's talking?" He stated using his magic to tighten the grip on us.

"What do you want?" I spat out.

"It seems that my family have decided to leave me to go back to the regular world with you" He said. Ellie's out of the portal? Where was she? Panic set in as I realised she was at risk. She was part of the most powerful magical families, this always put her at risk but I knew whilst I was by her side I could protect her, but now she was out there and alone, fear and worry fell over me.

"Are the consequences of your actions finally catching up with you?" Liam spat out.

"That's not our fault" Zayn said trying to defend us.

"Actually it is, this young man here has influenced my daughter to take risks. Risks that are too dangerous for her." Ryan said pointing at me.

"What risk?" I asked.

"You know better than anyone how powerful she is. You also know how defenceless she is too. She is unprotected and wild. She may be a risk to us all but she is still my daughter. There are many beings out there that want her dead. In fact, you saw someone today didn't you." He spoke only talking to me trying to aggravate me. I hadn't had the opportunity to bring up Simon to the guys yet and I know the moment I did it would only cause panic. Simon had created us for a purpose, and he hadn't made good on that purpose yet.

"I would have protected her." I said.

"You and me both know that you put her at more risk." He replied.

"See, I thought the only thing we having been fighting is you." I said back trying to antagonise him.

"What do you want from us?" Liam asked.

"It's nothing you can provide. My wife has taken my grimoire away from me and has cast a protection spell over our home so I cannot gain access to it." He explained.

"So?" Niall asked.

"So I want you to get it me back." Ryan continued.

"Why on earth would I help you?" I spat back practically laughing at the Irony.

"Because if you don't, I'll kill your friends." He answered. He wouldn't. More so that he couldn't.

"If he had the power to kill us he would have instead of putting us in that portal." Louis spoke up.

"Don't confuse my leniency with defeat." Ryan replied.

"And what if I don't get this grimoire?" I asked trying to see what my options were. 

"I will force you to lose all memory of Ellie. It's a simple as that. It will be as if she never existed. Of course everyone else will remember but you." He explained. 

"What makes you think they won't tell me after you go?" I asked. 

"Because I will cast a spell where if they do they will die." He replied. I look around at the others and I could see the pain in their faces. 

"Well I'm not going to help you get more power." I replied.

"Then you've got two choices. Let them die or forget." Ryan answered pacing 

"Harry, we will find a way to get you to remember. I promise he won't win." I heard Liam speak through his thoughts. 

"Tick tock Harry I don't have all day" Ryan exclaimed. I hated how he bested me. Zayn was right, they wouldn't be in this position if it weren't for me. If I didn't love Ellie, she would finally be at peace. If I forgot about her, she could move on and lead a normal life. The life she was supposed to have before she met me. I looked towards the others and I couldn't use my ability to protect them. I tried to control their minds so they wouldn't feel the pain but I was just as restricted as I was tied up. 

"Fine, I'll forget" I muttered. I watched as he began muttering something and a light went through the branches towards the boys. Once the light reached them, it made their core light up brighter than a bulb and then the branches vanished making them drop onto the floor. 

"Alright then lets begin" Ryan said walking up to me.
