Chapter 1
"BUGGER IT" yelled Tonks as she fell over the troll's leg umbrella stand, her hair turning a violent shade of red, like flames. She toppled to the floor with a loud BANG as Mrs. Black started to shriek:
"Filthy Mud blood! Half Breed! Get out of my house! Abomination to the Black Family! Muggle Born Father! Blood Traitor! Get Out!!
"SHUT up, you old hag" shouted Tonks as she nearly ripped the curtains in an attempt to cover the portrait up again. Finally silencing the old woman Tonks crept down to the kitchen, as she neared the door, hushed voices floated up, instantly catching her curiosity.
"Bellatrix is on the move" Mad- Eye Moody's voice was unmistakable over the crackle of the fire, "just today she killed at least six muggles all in one shot, in broad daylight, and still the Ministry is hushing it up, saying it's a mistake, but no dought she was looking for … uh… well..You know."
"Is that why she killed Ted Tonks?" Sirius asked. Tonks pushed her ear against the door.
"Probably, but he was just in the way, and when he refused to tell her where she was, or give any useful information, she killed him."
"But what about Andromeda wouldn't she go after her own sister?" Lupin piped up.
"I talked to Dumbledore about that, he has her under security, although I really don't think she's going to worry about her, we all know who she's out to get. Nymphadora is a very skilled Auror, but against her Aunt, I don't know."
"I will not stand by to watch my baby cousin about to be murdered." Sirius spoke loudly, the sound of a chair being scraped across the floor and someone getting to their feet hastily.
"Sit down Sirius, you're not the only one who is concerned about this" Lupin stated. "We need to keep a careful eye on her, make sure she doesn't do anything stupid."
"Quite frankly, you know how Tonks is, free, a wild spirit, if anything if she found out about this she'd probably track down Bellatrix and try to settle the score by herself, we don't want that happening." Moddy could he heard pacing the room, the clunk of his wooden led against the floor quite loud. "We've got Potter to worry about, but he's in Hogwarts and safe, Tonks on the other hand-"
"Moody, she's got a job to do to, and that job would involve Bellatrix being in it, she is quite capable of handling herself" Kingsley's deep voice echoed around the room.
Tonks who now was feeling extremely angry at being referred to as a sort of kid and thought: Yea, you tell them Kingsley."
"That's where I think you're wrong Kingsley" Arthur Weasley spoke "But for now she cant find out about this or else she's bond to do-"
"Something," Moody finished for him "Don't anybody dare tell her, we don't ant to lose her to a foolish cause."
All grumbling their approval they started to get up and head for their usual places. Above all the noise Tonks quickly scurried up the stairs, slamming the door behind her, hair on fire. The only one to notice something was Lupin, above all the noise his wolfish sensors could make out the shadow of a person behind the door, and the noise of that person hurrying up the stairs and slamming the door.
Reviews would be nice.
