Chapter 10

Artemis P.O.V

The Aurors didn't move. Fudge and Umbridge looked at them expectantly. "Well, you heard him!" Umbridge said. "Arrest her!"

"Now, I'm sure we can all work this out calmly. There is no need to arrest anyone." The Professor said.

I could have laughed. He was using his telepathy to subdue the Aurors. "Can I ask on what grounds you wish to arrest Artemis?" Remus asked.

"Be quiet Half- Breed!" Umbridge screeched.

I growled. "You be quiet Delores!" I said dangerously. "None of you have a right to be here. I left Britain. I am no threat to Britain. You can all leave." My temper was rising. It felt as if there was an animal inside of me that wanted to rip them all apart.

"See here Potter, this is for your own good! We have to bind your powers, before you become a threat!" Fudge said pompously.

"You will not-" Sirius started.

"Do not talk back to me Black! You spent twelve years in Azkaban! You are not stable, and as such in any condition to make decisions when it comes to matters such as this."

Logan stepped forward, a growl bursting from his throat. "If you want to take Artemis, you'll have to go through me." he growled, and he unsheathed his claws.

"Leave." I said. "You're back up, I think you'll find, will be unresponsive, and you have no jurisdiction here."

"You will-" Fudge spluttered.

I will not NOTHING!" I yelled. "I don't have to do anything anymore! You lot shoved the responsibility of killing Voldemort off onto me, when I hadn't even finished my schooling! I think I've earned my peace!"

Umbridge raised her wand and pointed at me. I cocked my head to the side and just thought about what I wanted to do. The toad was thrown backwards and she hit the wall. Fudge stared in horror.

"Leave." I said again. The Aurors disapparated, leaving Fudge and Umbridge alone. Umbridge pulled herself shakily to her feet. They both looked at me, and the others, and then disapparated themselves.

"That was easy." Scott said.

"They'll be back. Or someone will be. This isn't the last we've seen of them." I said. I then recapped everything that Winky had told me. "Now, if you don't mind, I am going to go lie down. Today's been hell." I walked past them all, aware that Logan was following me. When got to Logan's room, well, mine too, I sat down on the edge of the bed. Logan sat beside me, and wrapped his arms around me, before pulling me down so we were lying on the bed. I let a sigh escape me.

"What's wrong?" Logan asked me.

"I just want to be left in peace, to live out the rest of my life. I'm sick of fighting."

"I gathered. Well, it's not exactly peaceful round here."

"Do you have manic dark wizards out to kill every last one of you?"

"Not kill, no. We just kind of get in their way." Logan said.

"Then I guess it'll have to be good enough for me. I'll take whatever I can get." I said, turning in his arms to face him. I buried my face in the crook of his neck, and snuggled closer to him. I yawned and felt his hand running up and down my back.

"You should get changed, and go to sleep." Logan said.

I nodded, and reluctantly pulled myself up. I was comfortable, and didn't want to move, but I took his advice. I grabbed a pair of pyjamas, and walked to the bathroom. We may be soul bonded, but I wasn't ready to show off my body to Logan yet. Once I had changed, I walked back into the bedroom, to find that Logan was only in a pair of sweat pants.

We got into bed, and I drifted off to sleep, with my head on his chest, and his arms around my waist.
