Chapter 48 - The Mark

Your eyes opened as your arm started to burn. You sat up and grabbed it. You tried not to cry out, scared of who might see this...this...this thing! 

"Dumbledore, we need to tell her." You heard Snape say. You looked up, seeing a curtain around you but you saw their silhouettes. 

"I understand Snape but she has been though enough." You heard Dumbledore say. You let your arm go as the burning stopped and you stood, pulling the curtain back. They both turned and looked at you. 

"Tell me what?" You asked. Snape looked at Dumbledore, who only nodded. Snape walked from the room. 

"(y/n), please sit." Dumbledore said. You sat back on the bed and he walked up to you. 

"You know what that mark means, yes?" Dumbledore asked. You wanted to nodded, but you couldn't. 

"That mark is the mark of a death eater. Voldemort can now summon you, or, try to, that is." He said. You looked at your arm. 

"Is that what that burning is?" You asked, still looking at it. 

"Yes." Dumbledore said. 

"And it will never go away?" You asked, tears in your eyes. Dumbledore was silent for a bit. 

"I'm afraid so." He said. You broke down crying. You then felt his hand on your back, rubbing it. 

"Do not fret, (y/n)." Dumbledore said. You looked at him. 

"How can I not! I'm branded! I'm a death eater!" You screamed, crying more. 

"No you are not!" You heard two voices yell. You looked, seeing Draco and Harry, They looked like they ran here.      

"Draco...Harry." You said, then looked away in shame. Dumbledore moved any and the two boys sat on the bed with you. 

"You are not your father." Harry said firmly. 

"Yeah! Don't you dare say that you are a death eater." Draco said. You looked at Harry, then Draco. 

"B-but my arm." You said, lifting it up and looked at it. It was starting to burn again and you cringed when it did. Draco looked around and jumped from the bed, walking over to Madam Pomfrey's cart and took something. He then started to wrap your arm up, covering the mark. You watched him. 

"There." Draco said, looking at his work. Your whole arm was wrapped and you couldn't see the mark anymore. 

"Out of sight, out of mind." Harry said. You looked at them both before you smiled, then giggled, then laughed. Sure, your mark was burning, but your friends made it hurt a bit less. Draco then hugged you. You hugged back, feeling Harry hug you also. 

"As I said. Do not fret." Dumbledore said. You looked at him. 

"How long was I out?" You asked. 

"About a week. We only left to get some food but when Snape told us you woke up, we ran over." Harry said. You smiled but then frowned. You heard clinking and saw Moody walking it. 

"Dumbledore, Ah, I see (y/n) is awake." Moody said. You jumped from the bed and ran at him but Harry and Draco caught you, holding you back. Moody did nothing. 

"That's not Moody! That's a spy!" You yelled, glaring at him. Moody looked at Dumbledore.      

"You haven't told her?" Moody asked. Dumbledore gentle hit his head with his fingers in a light face palm. 

"Alas, I have forgotten. (y/n), we know about the spy, this is the real Alastor Moody." Dumbledore said. You stopped struggling.

"It's true young one." Moody said. You felt Draco and Harry let you go but you walked up to him. 

"Prove it." You demanded. Moody nodded, taking a step back, moving his cane and he whack you on your right arm. 

"OW!" You shouted, jumping up and down, holding your arm in pain as a bright red mark appeared. 

"I do not have to tell and prove anything to you. I do not care if your the daughter of he who must not be named or even then daughter of the queen her self." He said. You held your arm, glaring at him but no matter how mad you were at him, you knew that anyone who followed your father wouldn't harm you. 

"Anyway, Dumbledore, they are asking for you and Harry." Moody said and limped away. Dumbledore nodded. 

"Well, lets go down." Dumbledore said. You rubbed your right arm as you walked with Draco and Harry. You sat down, seeing Harry was still walking with Dumbledore. 

"Do you see that?" You heard and looked. You saw students looking and pointing at you. 

"Why is her arm wrapped up?"

"Do you think she has...you know." 

"She's a death eater." 

"Is she really you know who's daughter?" 

"Did you see that mark? I did." 

"Yeah I saw it, how could I not see it?" 

You covered your ears, shaking. Even if the voices were whispers, they were loud to you. So loud that you didn't hear what was being said on the stage. You felt an arm wrap around you, helping you up. you looked, seeing it was Draco. 

"Come on." He said when you stood, taking your hand and walked out with you. Once outside the great hall, you stopped, as did Draco.  

"Draco, how many students saw my arm?" You asked. He was silent. 

"Draco, please." You said. You felt a hand on your shoulder and looked. It was Harry's but Dumbledore and Moody were behind him. 

"Almost everyone." Moody said. You looked at your wrapped arm, wondering how you can face the school now.
