bellatrix malfoy (sequel to dracos little sister)

chapter 6

"hey gin" I say quietly my voice sounding normal for thefirst time in months "how have you been"

"how have I been" she says in disbelief "how have I been"

thats when she breaks down. ginny bursts into tears as she tackles me into a hug.

I hadnt thought about the effect my 'death' would have on them.

"im sorry ginny" I say to her "I really am"

"why did you do it" she asks pulling back "why did you fake your death"

"does it matter why?" I ask trying to avoid the question.

"of course it matters why" she says.

"I mean as long as you know I didnt actually die. isnt that enough?" I ask.

"bellatrix elizabeth malfoy you tell us right now why you faked your own death or I swear to god" she hisses.

"fine just....not here" I say. people were standing at the windows eyes wide with shock.

"oh right. yeah" she mutters.

"please follow me to my room" mcgonnigal says.

noone could argue with mcgonnigal so we followed her to her room.

when we enter the past professors are staring.

"miss malfoy. I thought you were killed" snapes voice says.

"so did everyone" I reply simply.

"now tell us. why the hell did you fake your own death" ginny says rounding on me.

"easy gin" harry says walking forward and pulling her back slightly.

"please take a seat" mcgonnigal says.

each of us hesitantly take one of the seats in the room.

"trixie" draco says "will you tell us"

"fine" I sigh "it was about a month before the war. I was being kept in the home voldemort was staying in. yes he had been training me. apparently I had lots of unknown potential. anyway I was sitting in the library reading a book. hogwarts a history I think it was. death eaters walked past the door talking about something.

I was curious and I followed them.

'there's a bigger threat out there. theirs plans bigger than the dark lord. bigger than all of us.the dark lord isnt going to last long. he thinks he Is unstoppable because he has the girl. shes to unpredictable though. she might seem like one of us but she is a gryffindore. and nothi g is going to change that. They know that and are going to manipulate her. bellatrix isnt going to know what hit her" I was thinkig about that just before I started battling voldemort. it was still on my mind when he hit me with that spell. I cant live up to what they think of me. I dont wamt to be some sort of weapon. I know its stupid to trust something a death eater said but I did..." I finish and mcgonnigal nods.

"I didnt think you would need to know this but....theres a group of rogue wizards that are working against the ministry to take down the ministry. and miss malfoy im afraid that your deductions are true. if they knew you were still alive. they would be after you"

the realisation seems to hit everyone at the exact same moment as the looks of horror is all I can see.

I panicked and the next thig I know im running through the forbidden forest as fast as i can.
