"we located them." Said Tonks, sitting next to Alicia as she brought her coffee.

"where are they?"

"In Gloucestershire, at the vey center of the fucking forest..."

"then we're leaving."


Lena and Bellatrix where woken up by red and green lights and fighting noises coming from the camp as Rodulphus Lestrange came in.

"The aurors are here..."

"WHAT?"

Lena's heart started beating faster when she realised what was happening. Saved, she was about to get saved! She rose from her campbed.

"you stay inside." Ordered Bellatrix without bothering to look at her as she got out...never minding the order, Lena followed, and started running around the camp as fast as she could, desperate to find her aunt.

Bellatrix let out a raging exclamation when she saw the girl running around the battlefield that had become the camp. She started chasing after Lena. Real mad...

Lena finally saw her aunt, the blonde woman was fighting three death eaters at a time and petrified them a few moments before catching a glimpse of her niece.

Bellatrix pointed her wand at Alicia. "Avada ke..."...no, she couldn't. She couldn't take the risk of hitting the girl. She threw an unforgivable spell that knocked the blonde woman out for good, and made the few steps that separated her from the girl, grabbed her arm and transplaned.

Lena had seen the red lightning pass her by, she'd seen the expression on her aunt's face...Alicia was dead, she was sure about it and started crying helplessly. She loved her aunt so much...her mother had died when she was young and her father ended up killing himself for he could not bear the sadness that his wife's deacease had brought into his life...so when she'd been left without parents, Alicia had been everything to her: both a sister and a mother. And now, she was dead. She still felt Bellatrix's grip on her arm, and she promised herself she'd kill the Death Eater as soon as they'd arrive.


Most Death Eaters had disappeared into thin air, and the snatchers had run away further into the woods. Tonks let out a disapointed sigh, they had done all this for nothing after all. Such a pity! She then noticed that Alicia was not there.

"Alicia?" she called hesitantly as she started to slightly panick, understanding something was wrong.

"Where's Adams?" Asked Kingsley.

"I don't know...that's no good..."

They started looking for the blonde woman, getting more and more worried every minute of searching that went by. Finally, Tonks got a glimpse of her friend's body and hurried over it, praying for her to be still alive.

"Kingsley! Alastor! I found her!"

Both men hurried to them.

"Is she alive?"

"Not for long..." she said, taking her pulse. "We've got to do something. Quick!"

Alastor leaned over the unanimated Auror's body.

"She'll need Severus Snape's potions...and for that, we need to take her to the 12th Grimmauld place...and we can not take that risk. Sorry Tonks."

"no! We're bringing her there..."

Alastor Moody rolled his only eye with unhidden annoyance...

"Fine then."

Tonks hugged the uncouncious Alicia tightly and teleported, whatever they did to save her now, they had to do it fast.

Alicia woke up in a dusty room...her whole body was hurting, she felt weaker than ever...she did not even find enough strentgh to keep her eyes open for more than a few seconds. She heard ushing sounds coming from the hallway.

"TONKS! WHAT IS SHE DOING HERE?" asked a voice she recognized.

"She was dying, Sirius!"

Sirius. It was Sirius' voice. Her heart started beating faster...she'd have liked to make a sound, to ask him to come closer, but she did not manage to. He and Tonks had started talking again, but she did not manage to get what they whispered. "where am I?" she wondered.

Then, she heard footsteps. Heavy ones, definitly not Tonks'. A strong, manly hand took hers and she knew her love was sitting next to her bed. She opened her eyes. Her mind was racing, she had no idea what to do.

"Sirius..." She managed to articulate weakly. " I have...missed you...so much..."

"Shhh." He said. "You need to rest. I'm here now. Sleep."

"n-no...because...when I will wake up, you won't be there anymore, will you? Promise...me...you will..."

She had not really seen his face because of the darkness, but she felt him leaning in, and his once familiar lips gently brushed against hers.


Lena and Bellatrix landed in a pinewood forest. As soon as she had gotten her balance back, the brunette jumped on the death eater. Hitting and kicking her as hard as she was able to. Bellatrix let out a small shriek of surprise as she got attacked, but soon enough, she got hold on the situation. Lena was strong though, and she managed to lay her ennemy on her back, straddling over her. She got her wand out.

"you killed my aunt, you bitch!"

"and what are you going to do? Kill me?"

she had a dispiteful laugh.

"Exactly!"

Bellatrix spread her arms wide open, exposing herself.

"What are you waiting for?" she challenged her.

Lena marked an hesitation, just as Bellatrix had expected. The death eater slapped the brunette's hand, sending the wand flying a few meters away. She then grabbed the girl's wrist and turned her around, finding herself on top.

"What did you expect, you filthy whore? HUH?"

She got up, grabbing Lena's brown hair as she did and making the girl's head tilt as she was still on her knees.

"apologize."

"She's gonna kill me anyway, so if I day today, I might as well die with class." Thought Lena...so she gave Bellatrix a defying look and she spat to her face.

The witch jolted away from her, letting out an angry scream. She tried to get her wand out but Lena jumped back on her, pinning the death eater to the ground again.

No matter how strong Lena could be, Bellatrix knew she had total over control over the situation. Her hands were stuck over her head by the girl, and for the first time since they'd started fighting, she noticed how...nice...it felt to have Lena's body over hers. A silence had taken place, all that could be heard was the two women's breath. Bellatrix slowly raised her lips to the Lena's, making her sit back up with panick as she tried to avoid a second kiss.

"My turn to have fun!" Exclaimed Bellatrix as she pinned the brunette on the ground and sat over her hips. She had finally managed to take her wand out, and leaned in with a twisted smile.

"Do you want to know what you are?" She whispered. "You are a coward."

Lena tried to break away, but Bellatrix violently put her back in place. Then, the dark haired witch started to slowly burn "COWARD" on the brunette's forearm. The pain was almost unbearable and she started screaming.

"Calm down, pet..." said Bellatrix, slowly. "We're only just getting started."

The next morning, Lena woke up, her tears had not totally dried. She tried to sit up but she suddenly realised she wasn't able to do so, and let out an uncontrolable sob of pain. Bellatrix got out of the tent, taking her time as she watched Lena suffer. She lit a fire and sat facing it, turning her back to the brunette. They had nowhere to go yet, so the state of her prisonner did not really matter to her, since they did not have to move.

The black haired witch was lost in her thoughts when she heard footsteps behind her.

"Doholov?" she asked.

"Yup."

She turned around.

"Where are the others?"

"In this very forest, Lestrange." He answered, sitting next to her. "it's a few hours walk, you can't apparate there."

Bellatrix sighed. She was gonna have to heal the girl fully if she hoped to get there without lingering. She looked at Dolohov.

"Are you coming with us?"

"No, the Dark Lord asked me to do something else, but he ordered that I re-orientate you on my way."

She nodded and he got up, walking away. Bellatrix turned to the girl, the brunette was now staring emptily at the sky, her hazel eyes full of tears, breathing heavily with her jaws clenched. She crouched next to her and rolled part of her shirt up.
