Fear | Fred Weasley (DISCONTINUED)

15

"Lucius Malfoy" Verena hid her face in her hands, "I should've known before! That day in the Diagon Alley!" She shook her head as the the rest of them sat in confusion.

"What do you mean? What day in Diagon Alley?" Fred asked for everyone and she looked up at him and then at George and Astrid, "Before I met the Weasleys.."

Verena Reeves ran for her life, clutching her wand as tight as possible.
Fenrir Greyback ran faster, right behind her.
"Stop right there!" He called out. She stopped.
She looked Greyback in the eyes. This person has killed her parents. She shouldn't run. She should fight. 

He wasn't afraid of much, Vera sensed. She took a wide stance before lifting her arm in front of her. Her jet black eyes changed to bright red ones. She twisted her wrist causing red sizzles to rise from the ground. A red aura surrounded Greyback. His eyes widened as he heard voices whispering to him, from his childhood. 

Don't kill him
She let go of the man and he fell to the concrete wall. Verena's hair and eyes instantly turned back to their normal colour. Her energy was drained. She was too exhausted to apparate. The girl ran into the closest shop of Diagon Alley and hid. 

She searched the bottom floor with a ready wand for any signs of anyone.
The girl caught her breath and sat down behind one of the shelves. Tears started to stream down her cheeks. 

Her parents were dead
Dumbledore was dead
Voldemort found out about her powers.
She was all alone. She had only one hope. Find someone from the order. Find Alastor Moody.

It was last year that Dumbledore had told Vera, "the order will be there to protect you if ever needed"  
The girl was still too exhausted from her fight with Greyback. She hadn't eaten anything in the past 8 hours since she had been on the run all this time. Verena walked up numerous stairs to find a small apartment on top. It has a kitchen. Thank merlin! Verena thought. She opened the cabinets to find some food. 

Suddenly, the floorboard started to creek. Clutching her wand, Verena walked out of the Kitchen to see none other than Lucius Malfoy.
"Well well, look who's here. Filthy Freak.." He aimed his wand at her.
"You won't. You are nothing compared to me!" though she didn't sound it, Verena was terrified of Lucius Malfoy. His sneer, his dark magic, his depressing home and his torturous methods. But this wasn't a time to be terrified, it was a time to escape
"We'll see about that" Verena's eyes flared into a red colour. She looked into Malfoy's eyes and sensed his greatest fear. Death of his wife.
"You sure you want to use your power? I know your limitations.." Malfoy told her.
"I know your weaknesses" he warned. 

"He said he knew my limitations and weaknesses" She explained in distress and Astrid paced the small living room again.

"Is that stone your limitation? NO. Is it a weakness? No. Lucius can't get to you" Verena wasn't sure if Fred was trying to convince her or himself. 

"But not having it is," George stood up from his chair, "I'm sure he knows something, where it is or maybe he has it"

"If he has it, that means we'll have to get into the Malfoy Manor somehow..." Fred added. 

"You can't. Unless you have either Lucius, Narcissa's or Draco's wand. It won't open, it's protected with beyond a hundred charms! it is practically Death eater hub" Verena told them. She had been trapped in their dungeons for the longest time, after her parents had died. She didn't know how long, but it felt like a lifetime. 

She had learned a lot about the Malfoy Manor in that time. She had threatened Draco to let her go and that's when she escaped to Diagon Alley.

Verena Crept through the halls of the mansion only to see Draco Malfoy wandering around. This was her chance to run away. She had found her wand and now was her time. 

"If you even dare to squeak, I'll kill you" She wrapped her arm around his neck ans pointed her wand at him. Draco tried hard to break free from her grip but was unsuccessful.
"Tell me where the exit is" she demanded, but he didn't answer and kept struggling to get out.
"Tell me!" She whisper-shouted. Draco was starting to give up on breaking free."Look, I don't want to hurt you, so let me get out of here and you'll never see me again" She had said. "I can kill you just by looking at you, I'm powerful and not afraid of you, you don't want to get on my bad side" Draco frantically nodded and the girl reluctantly removed her hand from his mouth.
