CPOV

For the next month the teachers actually left me alone. Neville and Ginny had both tried spells on my cuts and most of them had healed relatively scar free but I was still covered with dozens of them that made me feel sick. All of them just a reminder of what he had done to me.

At Easter Ginny went back home, the remainder of us confided ourselves to the Gryffindor common room. It was the only place that felt safe even when the Death eaters came barging in to check on us. Neville constantly tried to hold me, entwine his fingers with mine but I just couldn't. I didn't feel like me at all and I saw the hurt on Neville's face every time I would flinch or shift a little away from him. I just couldn't explain it.

Ginny never returned from the burrow. We had heard from someone all the Weasleys had gone into hiding. None of us could really see hope. First Luna had been taken now Ginny was on the run. My thoughts would even turn to dean and the others occasionally wondering if they were ok, Even though we didn't have a clue where they were, they could have been dead for all we know.

That night as I lay in bed all I could think about was how awful I had been to Neville lately. I knew what he was like; he probably thought I hated him, which defiantly wasn't the case. I think everything was finally getting to me, being beaten all the time, having to watch my friends go through the same treatment, not know how my aunt or family was. It was making me ill.

I snuck down to the common room but when I reached the boys stairs I stopped. Now wasn't the time to talk to him, I would just wait till morning. Before I could even turn round I Felt an arm wrap around me and a large hand covering my mouth halting my scream.

"Miss me?" A low rough voice said and I thought I was going to throw up.

I recognized the voice right away, the voice of my nightmares. As I struggled against him he held on tighter bucking his own hips against my back.

"You shouldn't do that, I kind of like it."

I stop moving knowing it was pointless, he was a thousand times stronger than I was right now and I had left my wand on my bedside table being the idiot that I am, not like it would have been much use, last time I just got lucky. "Now I'm going to move my hand, and you mustn't scream. Because if you do I will rip your tongue out."

I nodded and he slowly moved his hand away. I didn't do anything, I knew he wasn't bluffing.

He smirked and started to drag me out of the room. "Now, you're coming with me. Mummy wants to see you."

My eyes went wide and I pulled myself out of his grasp doing the only thing my stupid brain would allow me to do. I screamed.

NPOV

I shot straight up when I heard the scream coming from downstairs.

"What the bloody hell was that?" Seamus muttered from his bed.

"Cathy...that was Cathy."

I jumped out of my bed grabbing my wand and running down into the common room.

I heard another scream come from outside as more people were emerging from there rooms standing there looking at me.

"Neville what is it? What's happened?" lavender asked a look of terror on her face.

"Wait here. Just wait here."

I ran out of the common room when I heard another blood curdling scream, I ran through the halls from where the sound came from when I eventually saw him. Greyback holding onto Cathy.

"LET ME GO! DON'T TAKE ME THERE! ANYTHING BUT THAT! PLEASE!" she was trying to pull away from him tears pouring down her face screaming her lungs raw.

"Anything huh?" He grabbed her by the throat pulling her close to his body. "You really shouldn't have said that."

"LEAVE HER ALONE!" Greyback looked towards me as I held my wand up ready to attack.

"Oh look, we have ourselves a little hero." He tugged Cathy so she was against him facing my direction, hand still wrapped around her throat.

"Look Cathy dear. He's come to save the day."

She looked at me with terrified eyes and started shaking her head. "No...Neville…go. Just go!"

"I'm not leaving you!" I kept my wand rose pointing it straight at Greybacks face.

"I think you should do what she says Neville. This could get ugly." He was mocking me now a playful tone in his voice.

"I'm not….I'm not leaving." I could feel myself trembling but I tried to steady myself as much as I possibly could.

"Drop the wand boy. You do realise if you cast a spell it will hit both of us. Not just me. And I have more leverage than you." His grip on her throat tightened cutting off her air supply. She started to gasp sucking in as much air as possible. "Ne…..ville." Greyback gave me an evil grin. "Your move."

Cathy's eyes started to flicker shut her movements becoming less and less. Defeated I lowered my wand.

"Drop it."

It slipped from my hand hitting the ground and at the same moment Cathy with a small thud. I wanted to run over to her but Greyback was looming over her now unconscious form, eyes still fixed on me.

"Well….Neville? As much fun as this has been." He smirked before picking Cathy up like she weighed nothing and placing her over his shoulder. "We should be leaving." He turned and started walking down the hall and I grabbed my wand off the floor.

"STUPEFY!"

When the curse reached him he just waved it off with his wand turning and giving me an amused look. "I'm not unprepared this time." With a flick of his wand I flew backward smashing against the floor, I couldn't breathe as I felt the wind escape my lungs a pain shooting up my spine.

When I managed to pull myself back up they where gone. I got up still in immense pain before running in the direction I assumed they went. I searched for ages but couldn't find them. When I reached the fat lady she gave me a sad look telling me how sorry she was. That was it. I slumped down the wall next to the portrait and felt the hot tears roll down my cheeks feeling like a failure.

I was Pathetic.
