A/N: Hi! This is my new story with my new OCs, Gloria, Periwinkle, Barbara and Mark. All characters but those four belong to J.K. Rowling, Queen of All Potterness lol You might like it if you gave it a chance :) Should I continue this? Bye now, Megan Malfoy.
"Honey, Barbara! Honey, where's Gloria? They're here!" A man shouted down the stairs, frantic and worried for his wife and daughter.
"I know Mark. We have to get Gloria somewhere safe!" The woman, his wife Barbara, yelled back. "Ah, Periwinkle!"
"Missus called?" the house elf asked.
"Yes, take Gloria somewhere safe where the bad men can't find and take her. We'll protect you both for as long as we can. Please, just take her, and if they come into the house, make sure she doesn't make a sound."
"Yes missus. She should come with Periwinkle now." Barbara nodded. They didn't have much time before the Death Eaters came. This wouldn't be happening but it was Mark and Barbara's choice to not join the Dark Lord. She signed to herself, tears starting to stream down her face, wondering what it would be like if they had joined the Dark Lord and their family would be safe.
"Mommy! Where are you going?" Gloria came out from beneath the kitchen sink for a moment, with her eyes red and puffy.
"Sweetie, daddy and mommy are going to . . . protect the house and you, because we love you, and we don't want the bad men to get you. Perry's going to protect you too, don't worry. Perry, when it's safe enough, go to the Ministry of Magic right away, but don't leave without Gloria." The elf nodded, and was prepared to give her life for the young girl.
Just at that moment, the couple heard a loud bang, which meant they were here.
"Gloria, baby, I love you and daddy does too. Don't come out unless Perry says it's safe, stay hidden and don't make a sound. We love you, sweetheart," Barbara whispered and kissed her daughter and held her tight before she left to fight with her husband for their daughter to live. Gloria wanted to cry so much. She wanted to know why her parents were acting so strange, and why her mommy was saying things as if it were her last moments alive with daddy.
"Mommy! Daddy!" Gloria cried but Periwinkle held her back, and tried calming the crying little girl. So young to lose her parents, Periwinkle sadly thought, but still held the girl close. They heard shouting and lights flashing in the next room. Gloria, being a curious four year old, gently and quietly opened the kitchen sink curtain and saw a great green light flash before her eyes. She watched as her parents, hand in hand, fell to the floor motionless. She wanted to scream and shout, but her mommy told her to be quiet so the bad men who killed her parents wouldn't find her.
"Mo – mommy, da – daddy," the young girl cried. Her parents didn't have to die like that, but she knew they were protecting her. The young child and house elf waited together for wait seemed to them to be eternity for the Death Eaters to leave, after searching everywhere for the girl.
"Young miss, the bad men are gone. Time to go," Perry said and Gloria opened the curtain to climb out from beneath the sink to find a Death Eater standing right in front of them.
"Perry!" Gloria screamed and the elf grabbed the girl's arm and disapparated them out of the house to a place where Periwinkle knew that Gloria would be safe: Malfoy Manor.
