Untouchable
Prologue:
I run into Lucius Malfoy. "Is Cissy here?" I ask, keeping my eyes down.
"Yes, Bellatrix. She's here." He says, in his ice cold tone that only tells me that something could have happened to him that discredited him from Voldemort.
I run along stone corridors, with the Black family crest imprinted on the walls, joined by the Malfoy family crest. Doors have stone knockers on them in the shape of a snake. All around me, stone. I felt as if I was in a cell in Azakaban again.
I see my sister, with her blonde hair cascading down her back as she tends to a fire burning in the hearth. The flames flicker, shining light onto the gray circles under her eyes, and highlighting her chin. I can tell that she appears to be, or at least feel ill. If she was ill at heart, which I think she was, then there is nothing I can do, except for guide and help her through it. I realize that I must speak now, because if I don't, then it will have all been a waste to even come here.
"Cissy?" I ask her. She turns around.
"What is it? Having problems with the Dark Lord?" She asks me, laughing.
I roll my eyes. "Cissy, we are all in a danger of which you cannot even begin to think of! It has something to do with the Dark Lord."
"Carry on, Bella." Her tone is feverish, simliar to the look in her eyes.
"The Dark Lord has decided, and in a rather peculiar fashion, that Draco is to join-to join.." My voice breaks. How am I ever to finish it?
"Has he smartened up and decided to join us at long, long, prolonged last ?" She asks, her voice seeming as far away as the pines of Hogwarts.
"No. He wishes Draco to join the Order of the Phoenix." I say, unable to speak.
"He has learned too much about us. We need to find a solution, fast." She tells me.
"I have to go, Cissy." I tell her.
She wraps her arms around me. I wrap mine around her.
