No one gave where the door led to a second thought as we opened it and plugged into darkness.
The lights around us had been gone. Vanished. without a trace as we fell.
Inches.
Feet.
No one knew.
But as we saw the light glowing down the tunnel at us. We quickly saw the approaching rock ground. There was no way that we were going to stop falling. And we were going to slam straight into the ground if we didn't stop. I pulled my hands over my face as all of us came to halt. My face was just inches from the ground. hovering. Then as if with the flick of switch we dropped. Barely tapping the ground. A felt a pair of hands brace me and help me up. My gaze's locked onto Harry's. Then sliding down to the blue orb still gripped in his hand.
Thank goodness it was safe.
Whatever this orb..prophecy had said/ showed Harry I don't think giving it to Lucius was the right idea. Especially if Marcus had anything to do with it. I wasn't about to let him or any other death eaters get their hands on it. Not while I was still alive and breathing.
Standing back up on my feet the circle like room or area around us was unlike anything I had ever seen before. Nothing was really visible due to all the haze and smoke that swirled around in the very room. Glancing around a second time my eyes focused on the large rock arch sitting in the very center of the room. A Smokey dust of clouds swirled within the arch as if it was a portal. Or a doorway to somewhere else.
"I guess were here". Ron spoke ever so softly. Harry seemed to be intrigued by the arch as we made his way up the little hill to it.
"Voices". He exclaimed. "Can you hear them?"
Voices? What voices? My ears were not picking up anything. Glancing over to Ginny she shrugged her shoulders. She didnt hear them either. However as i slowly moved closer to Harry i began to hear a whisper of voice. Calling me.
"Harry, what voices?" Hermonie firmly asked him.
"I can hear them too". I stated standing perfectly still, next to Harry.
"Harry!" The cry in Hermonie's voice motioned us just in time. Both of us looked up to see multiple clouds of black smoke coming down at us.
Harry raised his wand high in the air, "Get behind me!" She shouted. Doing exactly what he said. I shifted my body behind his as did the rest of them.
She shouted. Doing exactly what he said. I shifted my body behind his as did the rest of them. Raising our wands up like Harry did, the black smoke engulfed us.
It was if all light had been sucked out of me. I couldn't see. Couldn't hear anything clearly. Flickering my wand each and every witch way, trying to fight against whatever was here, i felt a firm hand grab onto my arms and slam me against the hard rock. Each of us was fighting our way out. trying to evade the darkness and enter into the light. I wasnt going down without a fight, but as I struggled against it, firm hands gripped onto me and pulled me out. Away from my whole world.
Anger, fear and frustration shot back into me as i felt the tip of wand pushing its way on the skin of my throat. As i tried to struggle against whoever had held me down, I noticed all of us, minus Harry was caught. Wands at out throats.
"I'd hate to kill you too, deary". Marcus's vile hands were touching me. holding me down as my eyes wondered to Harry's. Rage and worry embraced him. I knew that his worst fears had been realized. His friends were in danger. At risk because of him. I shook my head at him. To show him that it was not his fault.
"Did you truly honestly think that you, children would have a chance against us". His slimly words rang across the room.
If only the order was here. They could have stopped this. Stopped any of this from happening.
"I'll make this simple for you, Potter. Give me the prophecy now or watch your friends die".
No no.
Don't do it Harry.
My eyes spoke it all.
He couldn't give anyone, especially not Lucius that orb.
Not now. Not ever.
Harry's green, desperate eyes glazed over all of us and then finally landed on me.
"Do not do it, Harry". I uttered, barely as the hand around my throat tightened.
"Don't do it Harry". Neville spoke with me.
Harry's arm began to reach up. Slowly. But too much. As he then was just inches from Lucius hand.
Harry no!
Harry then placed the orb in Lucius hand. I shook my head as much as i could. Harry you didnt.
Harry's face so stern yet soft told a different story as a small burst of bright white light popped into the room. Lucius seemed quite taken aback by it as i gasped escaped my mouth.
Sirius Black.
In the flesh stood facing Lucius. Harry couldn't help but gape at him. As did I.
"Get away from my godson". And with that Sirius fist collided with Lucius face.Don't why but I struggled writing this..had to watch this scene over and over again to get it just right lol. Stayed up till 3 am this morning to get it done before I had studying to do this weekend.
