Hey all! Three chapaters in two days! Aren't you all lucky! I just can't seem to put this fic down!! Anyways, this chapter is dedicated to poor ol' Mecha Springs, who is stuck in a quarantine! TT_TT Poor old you! -Bad pun- This little piggy went to the chemist!!! Oh, I crack myself up!

The Doctor watched darkly as a cell door was slammed shut on his small cell. He kicked at the dust on the floor dismally, hands in his trouser pockets. A slight breeze that wafted through the cracks in the brickwork chilled him slightly; the Death Eaters had removed his coat and had him empty his pockets at wand-point. Bellatrix had taken great pleasure in taunting him with a threat of destroying each and every precious item before locking him inside the dim little cell. He sat down on the wooden bench provided, eying the rats that scuttled around the edges of the cell, uttering numerous squeaks. The lantern on the wall flickered feebly.

He allowed his head to rest in his hands. And there was silence.

Such lonely silence.

'What shall we do with him?! He is too strong to be interrogated.' Hissed a male voice from outside.

'Alas, you are correct.' The Doctor heard Lucius reply, and wrinkled his nose in distaste. Hadn't these people done enough?

'I think…we may have to apply certain… methods.' Lucius mused. The unknown voice cackled evilly.

'Excellent! The Dark Lord prefers them weak…they make much easier pray! But who shall do the deed?!'

'I have someone in mind.' Lucius replied smoothly. 'Wormtail?'

There was some scuffling, which grew louder as its source approached, and then stopped abruptly. 'Yes, Mr Malfoy?' Squeaked a male voice. There was a harsh sounding bang, and the man named Wormtail gave an inhuman shriek of pain.

'Have you your wand?' Lucius asked him indifferently. There was some heavy breathing.

'Yes…Mr Malfoy.' Wheezed Wormtail.

'Then use it upon our…guest.' Lucius sneered, opening the door smoothly with one hand. Wormtail hobbled inside, looking at the Doctor nervously. Lucius smirked at the Doctor, and slammed it shut. Darkness resumed again, the only exception being the glittering lantern on the wall.

There was a swishing sound, and a tip of a wand burst into light. It reflected off of the Doctor's pitiful gaze; Wormtail took a step back.

'You don't have to.' The Doctor informed him quietly. Wormtail shook his head in earnest.

'You don't know what its like.' He protested.

'I think I do.' The Doctor stood up and walked towards him, hands back in his trouser pockets, eyebrows raised. The hunched man looked up at him timidly. 'Forced to fight when you didn't want to? Yeah, I've been there.'

'Get back!' Wormtail hissed, raising his wand. The Doctor stepped back, hands raised in submission.

'Go on then.' He said softly. 'Do it.'

The wand shook in Wormtail's hand as he trembled all over. 'But you don't know what I've done!'

'The past doesn't matter.' The Doctor assured him softly. 'It's what you do now that counts.'

'Wormtail?! I hear no screaming!'

Wormtail wheeled around and backed away from the door. The Doctor noted, as the lantern light shone down on him, that Wormtail had a hand completely made of silver.

'Miss Bellatrix!' He stuttered. 'So sorry…so sorry…'

'Oh, step aside, you useless fool!' There was a bang, and the door flew open. Bellatrix strode forward, shoving a whimpering Wormtail out of her way.

'The Dark Lord will hear of your cowardice, Wormtail!' She shrieked. The whimpering increased. She eyed the Doctor madly.

'Been chatting, have we?!' She taunted, stepping forward and raising her wand. The Doctor kept his feet planted firmly on the ground, and stared her down. Her lip curled.

'Oh, not so talkative now, are we?!'

He said nothing.

'We can't have that now, can we? CRUCIO!' Bellatrix yelled. Wormtail sunk into the corner and covered his ears as the Doctor's scream of pain echoed throughout the tiny cell. He knew the pain. He knew the pain that pounded throughout the mind, and as each and every bone broke and repaired itself at once. He knew the pain of the muscle tearing and then tearing again.

He knew it well. He knew the position that the once strong and powerful man that had reached out to his very soul was in; a small, crumpled figure on the floor, arms thrown over his head in an effort to battle off the pain.

And he knew that it would never work. He knew that if you didn't follow the orders given, or kill the right people on demand, the pain would happen again and again…

And that was why he betrayed the people closest to him.

The Doctor felt himself return to normality as the pain throbbed into nothing, accompanied by Wormtail's continued whimper and Bellatrix's high, cruel laugh.

'That silenced you!' She giggled insanely. 'But yet…you still move! CRUCIO!'

The Doctor screamed again as the merciless pain came back, stabbing and relentless. He had never known pain like it before. He watched, distant, as his hand reached out.

'Help…Wormtail…help…me…'

Wormtail uttered another inhuman cry, and fled from the cell in distress.

'CRUCIO! CRUCIO! CRUCIO!' Chased him, along with screams of pain and relentless, evil giggling.

Wormtail ran away. And didn't stop.

Harry and Ron jumped back from Ginny as the light shone on their faces. They shielded their eyes with their arms as the light increased.

'Hermione! Get back!' Ron yelled. Hermione did nothing; she stared down at Ginny, completely transfixed by the strange golden light that swirled in her eyes.

'So…beautiful…' She breathed.

'HERMIONE!' Ron roared at her. The huddled mass at the end of the console room stared, uttering gasps of awe and wonder.

'Help…my…Doctor!' Ginny said in a monotone. 'Great…pain…need…to…fly!' Ginny threw out her arms again, reaching to the ceiling she couldn't see. 'Need…to…run!' Harry staggered forward, squinting as the light grew in strength. He grasped Hermione by the shoulders and pulled her away from Ginny, taking her place. Hermione stood, swaying slightly. Ron took her by the waist and waved a hand in front of her glassy eyes.

'Hermione?!' Hermione's eyes snapped back into focus, and she looked around her in confusion. 'What happened?' She asked Ron. Ron motioned to Harry and Ginny.

'Ginny…are you still in there?' Harry asked her gently.

'I…am…not…Ginny…Weasly! I…am…the…TARDIS!' Said Ginny in her monotone. 'Where…is…my...Doctor?!'

'I don't know.' Harry said to her. 'But we can help you get back to him. You'd like that, wouldn't you?'

'What are you doing, Harry?!' Ron hissed.

'I've been possessed before, Ron!' Harry snapped. 'I'm talking to whatever's got Ginny!' Harry threw him a glare before returning to his girlfriend.

'What do you need us to do?'

Ginny's head turned towards the console. 'Life…'

Hermione broke free of Ron's hold and dived on the console. 'Harry!' She cried. 'There's a crack! This thing opens! The console opens!'

Ginny's hand shot out. It reached for the console. 'My heart…my heart…'

'Is there any way to open that thing?!' Harry yelled. Ron gripped the edges and heaved.

He tried again.

And again.

He stepped back. 'No.' He said sheepishly.

'Oh for heaven's sake Ron.' Hermione snapped. 'Of course it doesn't! This is something way beyond wizard or Muggle technology! It must have some sort of lock…' She paced around it, muttering under her breath.

Harry rolled his eyes, agitation increasing. He pulled out his wand, and pointed it at the console. 'CONFRINGO!'

The console's top blew open; all students put their fears aside them and crowded around.

'It's empty!' One pointed out.

'My heart…my heart!' Ginny called out desperately.

'Everyone move!' Harry called out, slinging Ginny's arm over his shoulder and wrapping an arm around her waist, hoisting her upwards. She was limp; her eyes cast torch like beams upon the grilling. The students scattered away from the pair. Harry dragged her over, and leant into the empty console.

'Look!' Harry told Ginny. 'Is this your heart?!' Ginny's head snapped up; her eyes became brighter and brighter.

'Doctor…I…am…coming!' The light poured from her eyes into the deep, dark space, the golden light pooling in its base…

The lid slammed shut, and Ginny sagged against Harry. The TARDIS shuddered, and light flooded the console room. The column whirred into existence, creating one of the most beautiful sounds in the universe.

'YES!' Ron yelled as the TARDIS shuddered again, knocking everyone to the ground with joyous laughter.

'Harry?' Ginny said weakly. 'What am I doing here?'

Harry grinned at her. 'You did it, Gin'! We're going to help!' He told her brightly. She smiled weakly at him as everyone hugged each other in joy. As the newly awakened TARDIS flew quicker than she ever had before, Ginny and Harry shared a kiss over the console.

'WE'RE GOING TO HELP THE DOCTOR!'
