Amelia runs down the marble staircase, when a sudden pain filled her head. She staggers to her feet, memories flashing before her eyes.

But it wasn't hers.

A woman quickly ran back to her house, locking the door behind her.

Suddenly, the door bursts open, to reveal a man wearing a cloak. "Where is your daughter?" He asks, sternly.

"No. I'm never going to tell you. "the woman says. "Take me instead." Her eyes landed on a man behind the cloaked figure.

"Peter?" Her eyes widen.

The woman was Amelia's mother.

"Tell me where she is, or you will die." The cloaked figure said, pointing his wand at the woman.

"So be it." Evangeline says as she glares at Peter.

"Avada Kedavra!"

Amelia holds the railing of the staircase, her breath heavy.

Evangeline lays on the floor, her eyes lifeless and her face pale. Something on Her wrist was shining, the bracelet.

The bracelet.

Confused, Amelia stood up from the floor. She runs down the staircase, seeing a familiar face going to the seventh floor.

"Harry!"

Harry staggers against the wall as the pain loosens its grip; the scarlet in his eyes ebbs as the flames flickering in the sconces gutter...

The headache is slowly going away, she helps him stand up to his feet. Harry, still feeling the effects of Voldemort's Shield shattering, stumbles forward as spells fly and bodies fall.

Amelia looks at him worriedly, he shakes his head and looks at Amelia.

"I'm fine," he said, looking at her. "Fine."

Amelia lets out a sigh of relief, and behind Harry, she points her wand at a Death Eater who was about to throw a spell at them, just as Ginny and Neville appear.

"Ginny! Neville! You alright?" asked Amelia.

"Never better! Feel like I could
spit fire!" replied Neville, who looked very dirty. "Haven't seen Luna, have you?"

"Luna -- ?" Harry lifts a brow, Amelia turns to him.

"I'm mad for her!" exclaimed Neville. "Think it's about time I told her, seeing as there's a pretty good chance we'll both be dead by dawn!"

Harry, Amelia and Ginny watch him dash off.

"Be careful, Gin." said Amelia, as Harry takes her hand and they dash off.

"Where exactly are we supposed to be going?!" shouted Amelia, as a Death Eater threw a spell at her, which Amelia deflected easily, and she threw a Stunning Spell back at him.

"Room of Requirement." He whispered, only for Amelia to hear. She nods and they started to run.

As Harry and Amelia pelts down the corridor, an explosion detonates and the windows running the length of the corridor explode -- one after another -- showering the couple in glass. Then the wall itself falls away, rubble falling into the night and below. Amelia & Harry never breaks stride. As the billowing smoke thins, Malfoy appears, flanked by Blaise and Goyle. They follow.
