Chapter 21
She appeared on an alley of Diagon Alley. She was going to collide, but was able to rest from the wall as she started to cry.
"I'm sorry…I'm sorry…"
She whispered and kept crying.
"I love you too…Fred…George…I'm sorry…"
She said and sniffed. She cleaned her tears, but more kept coming.
"Awww. The poor girl…"
She turned around and saw a group of snatchers appearing from the shadows with smirks.
"Get her."
Kat started to run and they went after her. It was back to this life again. Everyone just sat down and they were still quiet. Only Hermione's sniffs were heard.
"I still can't believe this…"-Tonks said.
"Can't you?"-Mad-eye asked standing on a corner.-"The clues were right in front of our faces. She dropped off Hogwarts. Ran away from her parents. She might have even killed her friend and just told us it was someone else to get us more into her trap."
"No…"-George said and everyone looked at him.
"We have to look for her."-Fred said
"You two…you two will stay away from her and forget what ever you feel for her."-Molly said pointing at both.
"Promise me you won't look for her. None of you."-Arthur said looking at the kids. They were all looking down.
"I can't promise you anything."-Fred said getting up of his chair.
"Me neither, dad."-George added looking at his parents.
"If you get close to her, do you have any ideas what can happen? She's a huge danger to us!"-Arthur said trying to knock some sense into them
"I better secure the house. We don't know what might happen now."-Lupin said as he left
Fred and George left the room with Molly calling them. Kat had disappeared from Diagon and appeared on the woods. As she walked, her tears kept falling. She has never felt so guilty, disappointed, awful and broken. She sat under a tree and hugged herself, feeling so cold. She rolled the sleeve of her jacket and saw the mark. She was part of them; this was the side she was born to be in. No matter what her heart felt about the others. The sky turned gray and thunders sounded. The rain started to fall in a few drops and then more came along. She stayed there and let her face get wet with tears and raindrops. She thought lying to them would end it, but she didn't know it would impact her so much. She really fell for Fred and George and grew to be a good friend to Harry and the others. Fred and George were sitting on the bed of their room, just quiet. None have talked. Only tears fell down their cheeks in silence.
"I know she didn't mean what she said…"-Fred said hitting the mattress
"I know too…we have to look for her. If not who knows where she might end up."-George got up from the bed and passed his hand trough his hair.
George's eyes opened wide and he looked at Fred.
"What?"
George walked out of the room and checked no one was around. He went to Hermione's room and searched her stuff and came back with the Crystal ball. He looked the door and sat beside Fred with the crystal ball on his hands.
"Eyes that don't see, heart that doesn't feel. Katherine Skye."
The white smoke cleared and it showed them Kat. She was still sitting under the tree with a few tears. She had her hands together and she had something on them that she was looking at.
"Look…"-Fred said pointing at the ball.-"She's looking at your necklace. Look the string on her necklace how it just falls on her hands."
"And she is not wearing your ring. She might have it in her hands too."
"Yeah."
"Or not. Face it, she misses me more."-George joke to light up the mood
Fred just let out a little laugh.-"Don't start Georgie."
Kat got up as she heard a noise. A group of snatchers came behind her with smirks.
"Look who we have here…the little girl that plays thief…haven't seen you in a while"-Said a bald guy with a scruff and dirty teeth.-"You have something that's mine."
"Yeah, I remember. Your wand. It broke. It was useless, same as its former owner."
"Don't play with us girl. Just stay still and it will all end fast."
Kat got her wand out quickly and pointed at him.
"Crucio!"
The guy fell to the floor and started to twist. She made a run for it, but he got up and they all went behind her. Fred and George were watching with eyes wide and getting worried, both whispered 'Run, Kat. Don't let them catch you'. Kat let go of George's necklace that stayed around her neck, moving to her pace as Hermione's necklace. But she was holding on tight to Fred's ring inside her fist. Roots came out of the ground and wrapped around her feet, making her fall. The ring left her hand and fell a few feet away from her. When she was going to get up a snatcher put a foot on her back. Another one grabbed the ring. The bald guy went to her and kicked her in the head. Fred and George made a jump, as if they were going to enter the ball.
"You will pay for that you bitch!"-He said pointing a wand at her.
"Awww, this one has a boyfriend."-The snatcher said getting close showing the others the ring.
Kat raised her head and saw he had the ring. She quickly moved her arm to the front pointing at the guy.
"Avada Kedavra!"
The green light hit the guy and he fell dead to the ground. She pointed at the guy over her and did the Stupefy spell, making him fly.
"Accio ring!"
The ring hit her hand, closing it into a fist and she got up and started to run. The snatchers left ran behind her. She threw two more Avada Kedavras and killed two snatchers. It actually killed Fred and George to see her like that. Acting like what the others saw, they knew she was doing it for her safety. Another thing that killed them was that she was on her own in that situation. She disappeared, but the crystal ball kept showing her. She appeared at a dark room. The light of the moon was coming from a broken window and spaces from the wooden wall that were missing. There was a dirty old mattress on the floor with a dirty and ripped sheet. She took her messenger bag off and placed it carefully on the mattress. She opened her hands and took the ring on her fingertips and sat on an old red-gray sofa that made a sound when she sat and went down a bit.
"I'm sorry…"-She talked to the ring as it was Fred himself.
She gasped in the ring, letting her warm breath hit it and then she wiped it with her shirt and put it back in her finger. She lay back on the sofa and a few more tears started to drop.
"We have to find her!"-Fred said getting up.-"Look how she is! I can't see anymore!"
"I know we have to! I can't see anymore either."
Fred started to pace around, trying to figure out where she was and his eyes opened wide after 3 laps around the room.
"She's at the Shrieking Shack! Look. That's one of the rooms! We have to go there!"
"Yeah! It is! We should probably hide this."
George and Fred walked all the way to the attic and hid the crystal ball in a box that was in a dark corner and placed more boxes around it and over it.
"What are we going to say?"-George asked Fred who just shrugged.
"Let's just go. We'll figure it out there."
