A week after Fred and I were married, Bill and Fleur were having their wedding. We had a new banner put up in the kitchen, with their names rather than ours, and we had set up a tent outside. And as we were setting up for the wedding, someone apperated into the barrier.

Everyone turned their heads to look and see who was there. It was Scrimgeour. "What's the Minister of Magic doing here?" George asked, the white bandage still wrapped around his head.

Scrimgeour collected Harry, Hermione and Ron, taking the three of them inside. None of us knew what was going on, so we continued to set up, all of us still curious to know why he was here.

Bill and Fleur danced to the music, all of us clapping to the beat and smiling, knowing they were happy. It reminded me of the week before, when Fred and I had been in that same position. I smiled, looking at Fred, who was on the other side of the tent. He was dressed in a nice suit, and I was wearing a maroon dress, with lace around the top of it and fake diamonds around the waist. I flared at the bottom, red mesh surrounding the silk inner part of the dress. I had paired it with the same coloured maroon heels and white leggings underneath.

Suddenly, the lights went out as a glowing ball floated in the center of the tent, causing everyone to gasp as they'd been caught off guard

Suddenly, the lights went out as a glowing ball floated in the center of the tent, causing everyone to gasp as they'd been caught off guard. The ball of light was a blue, glowing lynx. A patronus. It then spoke the words, in the voice of Kingsley Shacklebolt, "The Ministry has fallen. Scrimgeour is dead. They are coming."

Everyone began to run around screaming, and Death Eaters flew in, breaking glasses and shooting spells at everyone who hasn't already disapperated. One of the Death Eaters shot a spell at me, but I blocked it. Arthur jumped in front of me, creating a stream between the two of them.

"FRED!" I yelled out. Fred and George both ran over to me, taking my arms and running out of the tent. We ran back into the house and I stood in the corner of the kitchen, both twins staring at me as I inevitably freaked out. "We have to go back out there and help them-!"

"We can't," Fred said as I tried to run out, but he stopped me by taking hold if my arms. "It's too dangerous."

"I don't care, your family is in there and you're just going to sit back and not help them?" I struggled to escape his grip, but I couldn't.

"You're our family too, now, Liz," George budded in. "We have to help you too. And we sent letting you back out there by yourself. We can't let you get hurt either."

"Then come with me." Both twins stopped what they were doing. Fred loosened his grip, allowing me to escape, running back out of the house.

"Ellie-!" Fred called after me, but the door had closed behind me, creating a distance between us. I ran into the tent, finding Molly under attack by another Death Eater.

"Molly!" I shot a spell at the Death Eater, stunning him and knocking him back out of the tent. I helped her back onto her feet and ushered her out.

"Elizabeth, look out!" Bill yelled as a Greyback sent my flying backwards into a table, the table breaking underneath me, and empty champagne glasses breaking either on me or around me. Bill hit Greyback with another spell if some sort and Greyback disapperated. Bill rushed over to me, helping me back onto my feet. "You need to get out of here, Elizabeth. Find Fleur, she can help protect you. I promise. Now get out of here."

"I'm not going until everyone us safe," I protested, turning to see Remus and Tonks fighting side by side. I turned back to Bill, who still had concern etched upon his scarred face.

"Where is Fred?" Bill asked me.

"Inside," I replied.

"Go with him. Trust everything he says. I know he is not the most serious, but he is when need be. Elizabeth, you can't be out here. I insist you-" Bill was hit with the cruciatous curse and fell to the ground. He yelled out in pain, and I spotted his attacker, firing a stunning spell at him, creating a stream. Bill re-gathered himself and went into a slight crouch, shooting a spell at the Death Eater, breaking the stream as he flew backwards.

As Bill stood up, I searched around for anyone else I could assist. Where were Harry, Ron and Hermione? They were gone. Has they disapperated?

"Liz!" Remus jumped in front of me, blocking a curse from a Death Eater by creating a stream. But it wasn't Remus who had yelled my name. "ELIZABETH!!" I turned to my right and saw George attempting to run through the crowd of people.

"George, LOOK OUT!!!" I fired a spell at the attacker who had attempted to hit George with the Killing Curse. George ducked his head out of sight, and I could no longer see him.

"Ellie, we have to go. Now!" Fred ran in from behind me and took me by the hand, dragging me towards the exit. We found George near the edge of the tent, and Fred grabbed onto him, all of us disapperating.
