GONE
Hello again! Sorry about starting things off a little sadly, I promise things will look happier a little later on. Unfortunately, I wouldn't call this chapter very happy either, but it has to be done. Also, sorry about this, but I forgot to mention that I don't swear much, so any implied bad words (there shouldn't be all that many) are in * * or symbols. This is just something I do. Please don't criticize me for it!
Big thanks to everyone who added this story to their favorites and subscribed to it! Don't forget to review at the end
No, I still don't own anything. I'm just playing with what J.K. Rowling made.

I stood solid; the shocked sight of Tonks' seemingly lifeless form gripped at my insides and prevented me from moving. A few strands of her mousy brown hair had been flung around her head and into her face. Her mouth was slightly agape, forming a tiny "o".
Suddenly, my eye caught the slight up and down movement of her chest, and her head stirred feebly. I released a breath I hadn't known I had been holding, relief flooding through me. I hadn't lost her yet; she was definitely alive.
In my elation at the realization that Tonks was alive, I hadn't noticed Dolohov making his way towards me. His raspy voice shouted "Crucio!" from across the corridor.
My whole body felt like it was on fire, like a million hot knives were stabbing their way into my stomach and chest. I immediately wanted it to end, anything to make it end. It felt like I had been in unbearable pain for an eternity, but Dolohov eventually released the curse. My muscles relaxed, and I finally felt at ease to breathe. I looked up to see Dolohov making his way towards me.
I picked up my wand, and shouted "Confringo!" He leapt out of the way of the spell, causing the wall behind him to explode in a cloud of debris.
The Death Eater quickly reoriented himself and yelled "Avada Kedavra!" I dove to the right to avoid being hit by the singeing jet of green light.
I quickly rose to my feet and countered with "Locomotor Mortis!" The spell hit Dolohov straight on, causing his legs to bind immediately. He struggled to break free of the spell, but he remained unmoving in the middle of the corridor. I pointed my wand straight for his chest. "Stupe-," I started, but a deafening crash echoed down the corridor. I felt myself being thrust to the side, and I closed my eyes, bracing myself against the impact. My ribs and back collided hard with the stone floor, and I slid to the side into the wall. A sharp pain coursed down my neck and back from where my head had made contact against the wall. I heard footsteps from across the corridor, and their pace was quickening.
Just then, I heard someone shout "Avada Kedavra!", but the voice was unrecognizable. I saw a flash of green through my closed eyelids, and something hit my face with unbelievable force. That was the last thing I felt before my mind slipped away.
Sorry for the shortness. I promise that the upcoming chapters will be longer! I'll try to have the next chapter up soon. I already have it written so hopefully it'll be up by the end of the week. Don't forget to REVIEW. They honestly make me so happy!
