Voldemort's plans were ready and his followers were lined up outside the building. He raised his wand and a red spark came out. It was the signal. The Death Eaters fired at the door and ran inside, killing anybody in their way. Voldemort walked in last, his black robes spinning around him. Screaming was heard in the upper floors. The invasion had begun.
More than 200 wizards and witches live in that tower, so more than 200 wizards and witches were all trying to escape. Green smoke filled the hallways from the curses the Death Eaters were using. The electricity went out, but that didn't stop people from trying to escape. The front doors were barred close, trapping all the people inside.
"Emily!" Adeline screamed reaching for her sister. Going through all the drawers in her bedroom.
"Adeline! What are we going to do?" Emily said frantically through her tears.
"We're going to get out!" Adeline was throwing anything she could into her's and Emily's backpacks. Items such as- wands, spell books, the tent, clothing, and all the money they could find. Basically everything essential for them to survive. Their parents were in the lobby just going out to work, so Adeline and Emily were left upstairs by themselves. They knew that their parents probably didn't make it, so they had no choice but to leave.
"We live on the 20th floor! How are we going to get out!" Emily cried.
"My broomstick!" she said grabbing her firebolt.
"Okay- you have one but I don't. We both won't fit, will we?"
"If you don't move around then we'll both fit."
"But what about the backpacks? They're heavy!" A blow was heard out in the hallway. One of the wizard sent a spark all the way through the roof. Emily screamed and reached for her sister's hand.
"Do you remember Hermione from my stories? She gave me this bag." Adeline held up a little purple bag that was tied around her neck. "It can fit anything into it. I mean anything!"
"Like the fridge?"
She sighed. "Yes, like the fridge." Another blow was heard; this time the Death Eaters had reached their floor. Emily was about to scream again but her sister's hand flew to her mouth. "Don't let them hear you!" she whispered. Adeline ran to the window and opened it. "Get on the broom stick!" While Emily was getting on, Adeline stuffed the backpacks into the little.
"Are you coming?!" Emily said.
"Yeah! Calm down, the Death Eaters aren't to our room yet!" But as if by coincidence, the main door blew open. "Move Emily! Give me room to get on!" She managed to mount the broom and fly out the window just in time. A green shot flew right past their heads, missing them by just a few inches. Emily turned around and saw a man dressed in all black holding his wand out towards them.
"Go Adeline!" She was focused on the flying, if she made one mistake they would be falling more than 300 feet. That'd be a little bad.
"Be quiet!" she screamed back at her sister. Adeline continued to fly on till they reached a safe spot. After hours it seemed like of flying, they landed in a field. The clouds looked dark and it began to get humid. "It's going to rain soon I think. Let's set up camp."
"Okay." Emily said with a yawn. "I can't believe that we lost the tower."
"Don't worry. This is just God giving us the freedom we wanted."
"Well, next time, remind me to be careful what I wish for." Adeline smiled as she was pulling her wand out of the bag, along with the two backpacks. She picked up a rock and transformed it into a tent, earning her sister's mouth to drop.
"That's why I value magic so much." They climbed inside and found that the tent was furnished with a kitchen and a bedroom, along with a couch and a fireplace.
"This is so cool!" Emily said running to the fire to get warm.
"I say that we sleep on the couch tonight. It might get cold due to the rain."
Emily ran to the door and looked outside. "It's started raining already." She went to sit down on the couch next to Adeline. "I miss the tower already."
"I kinda like this better. It actually doesn't seem as crammed as it was."
"I guess so." Emily stomach started rumbling. "I'm hungry."
"I can hear! What do you want?"
"Chicken." She closed her eyes then opened them suddenly. "And mash potatoes, and green beans, and gravy with rolls, and sausage, and some steak would be good too."
"Do you think I have a restaurant in my bag! I can make some PB and J sandwiches."
"That's it?" Emily said, looking disappointed.
"We also have water. Hey! Just be happy that we're alive! You know most of the people back at the tower died!" Emily looked at her sister in horror and started crying, thinking of her mother and father. Even though they didn't like them that much, they still depended on them.
"Shh, shh. Don't cry. Soon, somebody will defeat You Know Who. We'll travel somewhere and live in a nice place, an actual home. Ok?" Adeline said, hugging her sister whose face was covered in tears.
"Where will we go?" she said.
"I don't know yet. But I know we have enough money to get there. Mom and Dad kept a secret safe in the wall. You know how they don't trust the banks here. They told me the combination a little while ago just for emergency. Well I took all the money in there."
"How much?"
"I don't know. A lot? I'd say maybe about 5 thousand dollars."
"Seriously!" Emily's eyes light up. She had stopped crying and decided to look at the bright side of things. "Cool! I say that we go shopping tomorrow. I hate the clothes I have now!"
Adeline laughed and said, "Let's take care of the necessities first." Emily sighed and lay down then began to fall asleep. Her chest began moving steadily up and down. Adeline covered her sister with a blanket and then stepped outside for a moment. She looked up to the sky and saw a great mass of stars. Living in the city- she could never see them, but she knew they were always there. At that moment she gave consideration to staying in the field forever. It was so much more peaceful than the city, but what would happen if Voldemort happened to find them. They'd be dead within 50 seconds. She shook her head to rid herself of that though. Adeline turned around to go back inside, then fell asleep.
