Bellatrix brought you into a large dome shaped room at the bottom of a long flight of stairs. It looked very much like the old courthouses at the Ministry of Magic that you had seen once before. There was a circular area in the middle with a chair adorned with rusty, iron shackles on the armrests and on the legs. Around this spot were at least a hundred chairs encircling it; about half of them were occupied with Death Eaters smirking at you as your mother marched you over to the chair. She pushed you roughly forward, so you nearly fell over. "Lock her up Martin" she hissed, before turning around to a group of sinister looking men who were talking a few feet away.

Your jaw nearly dropped when you saw the person she had ordered to lock you up. There he was, Freddie Martin, standing in front of you by the chair. He looked completely different from the last time you had seen him over the summer going into your seventh year. His dark blue eyes no longer sparkled with a love for life, his once spiky brown hair was now lying flat and tangled, and his face was ghostly pale and bruised. He looked like he had seen way too much pain and suffering for someone so young. "Well if it isn't my old friend Frederick" you said coldly with a smirk on your lips.

His tired eyes looked away from you and down to the floor with what almost looked like guilt, but that soon faded away. "It is nice to see you Darcy, looks like you have landed yourself in some deep shit, huh?" he taunted you.
"Yeah and whose fault is that?" you hissed glaring maliciously at him. "I know what you have been up to you jackass, telling them peanut butter and jelly was my favorite food. Oh very clever, very clever indeed!" you said in mock praise.
"Oh I told them more than that mate" he replied threateningly grabbing your small wrist and planting you down on the chair brutally.
"Well it doesn't matter anymore now though, does it? I am going to be dead soon enough. How does it feel to know you betrayed one of your best friends to her death Freddie? How does it feel to know you helped end the life of someone who was never anything but kind to you. I hope you can't sleep at night Frederick Martin" you spat at him. Your comment seemed to catch him slightly off guard, because he paused in locking you up for just a second and just stared at you.

"Get on with it Martin, I don't have all bloody day you twit!" Bellatrix scolded angrily.
"Right, sorry Mistress" he apologized bowing to her before turning back to you. He glared at you and continued to lock you up in the shackles now with a lot more added force. "Have fun being tortured to death" he whispered in your ear before walking off and sitting himself down in one of the chairs in the front row.

Bellatrix smiled as Freddie finished and walked over to you placing a hand on your shoulder. "Today you will all have the honor of watching me get some answers out of my daughter here" Bella chuckled.
"You aren't getting jack out of me" you declared jerking your shoulder trying to get her hand off of you.
"Ooh she is a feisty one isn't she" one of the men commented, "Definitely has your genes in her Bella, this should be a fun one my friends".
"Yes fun indeed" Bellatrix sneered in agreement pulling her wand out of her back pocket and pointing it right at your chest.

"Alright let us begin... Where is the location of Dumbledore's Army Headquarters?" she inquired and you couldn't help but snort at her question.
"Like I am going to tell you that" you mocked rolling your eyes at her.
She glared at your less than satisfactory response, "CRUCIO!" she screeched and you felt a pain like no other pain you had felt before rush through your body. It was like fire was searing every inch of your skin and every bone in your body had shattered into a million pieces. "That is what happens when you don't answer a question right" Bellatrix laughed.
"Bring it on" you hissed at her with the utmost confidence even though you were trembling from head to toe in horrible, throbbing pain.

"Which wizards are members of Dumbledore's Army?"
"Who is he recruiting?"
"Where will Harry Potter be traveling to over the summer?"
"Where will Harry Potter be living after school finally lets out?"
"What are Dumbledore's plans of attack?"

Each question she asked you answered with nothing, but silence or possibly a smartass remark here and there until you could no longer speak. This was because after every unanswered question a blast of the Cruciatus Curse followed, each one hurting more than the first. After about the fifteenth time your vision started to become blurry and you slowly felt your mind slipping away from you like you were going into a sort of coma-like state. Your body was convulsing so violently that you couldn't even make out Bellatrix's words anymore. "She's done; she lasted longer than the boy though" you were barely able to decipher her last words. Soon you felt the shackles around your ankles and wrists release you and someone lift you rather forcibly off of the chair and into their arms. You were carried up the stairs and then thrown on to a stone floor; that is where everything went blank.

You fluttered your eyes open to see Raven and Draco leaning over you both looking nervous. Draco's face lit up when he saw you awake; he pulled you gently into his arms and kissed you sweetly on the lips with such a love that it took your breath away. "I love you so much Anna" he whispered in you ear.
"It is nice to see you too darling" you chuckled, "But what the hell happened?" you moaned clutching your pounding head in severe pain, "It feels like I got run over".
"I bet it does, Bellatrix kicked the bloody crap out of you with the Cruciatus Curse" Raven answered.
You moaned again as the memory of the interrogation came back to your mind again. "I didn't tell them anything" you told Draco and he smiled at you.
"I know you didn't, you are the strongest person I know Anna" he responded stroking your cheek.

"Here take these, they will help you out... just don't tell anyone about it, you hear?" Raven said sternly before handing your three bright orange pills and a glass of water after you had been complaining about the pain once again.
Without a second thought of what might be in these mysterious pills you gulped them down and almost instantly felt a good majority of the pain leave you, though you did still feel pretty horrible. Unfortunately for some reason you weren't able to use the Healing charm on yourself. "Thanks Raven" you said with a small smile before you noticed something that troubled you. "Where is Ron?" you asked in a clearly panicked voice, your eyes darting around the room.
"They took him about two hours ago" Draco mumbled in response looking down at the floor.

Another hour passed by with no sign off Ron just yet. You had buried your head into Draco's chest that was slowly going up and down with his breathing. He had wrapped his arms around you very lightly so as to not hurt your severely sore body and was absentmindedly playing with your hair. Your mind buzzed with worries about Ron as you sat in the silence praying to yourself that he would be okay and that he wouldn't tell them anything. Ron definitely was not the strongest person in the DA, but he was loyal to Harry and you had faith in him.

Suddenly the door of the prison cell swung open with a loud bang that echoed through the room. You jumped and let out a little yelp in surprise; Draco in protective instinct pulled you closer to him, which in truth was somewhat painful, but you appreciated the gesture. "Looks like you are all just as stubborn as the next; we are going to have to resort to legilimency for you kiddies" Montague stated before throwing Ron violently to the ground at your feet making him moan in anguish. "I will see you all in three days; enjoy your stay" Montague sneered with a sick smile that showed his disgusting, rotting black teeth.
"I will make sure they do, now get your ugly mug away from here... you are making me sick Monty" Raven spat before slamming the door in his face.

As soon as Montague was gone you sprang to Ron's side and lifted his head up into your lap. "How are you feeling mate?" you whispered stroking his various bruises and muttering the Healing spell quietly under your breath.
"Like shit... but I kept my mouth shut" he said with a triumphant look on his face.
"Of course you did mate, we knew you would" Draco said with a smile.
"Hey Raven, you got anymore of those pills?" you asked and he threw the bottle right at your head. "Oh thanks you twit" you mumbled rubbing the spot where he hit before picking the bottle up. "Here swallow these down it will help you out a bit" you instructed Ron and he did as you said without any hesitation.

"It hurts doesn't it little Anna? You have got some willpower in you though my daughter, but we will soon break you of that. CRUCIO!" a cold, callous voice echoed in your ears. Excruciating pain was shooting through your body like you had never felt before in your life. It was almost as if someone was stabbing daggers into every single inch of your body and then suddenly it ceased. But you were still trembling and with every breath you took sharp twinges of pain shot through you. Your vision was blurred and indistinct; you could barely make out the person standing in front of you pointing a wand straight at your heart. You squinted a little to see that it was none other than Bellatrix Lestrange with a cruel grin spread across her face and hatred glowing in her cold black eyes. "She's done; she lasted longer than the boy though" you could barely make out in your now almost coma-like state. 'Thank Merlin...' ran through your mind as you felt someone undoing the shackles around your wrists, 'I would have been dead in a few more curses, I don't know how Draco handled this so well...' With these last thoughts everything suddenly went black as you felt yourself plummeting into a hard, cold stone floor.

Harry sat up suddenly in his bed panting with sweat pouring down his forehead. The dream had felt so real, like it was him that had been sitting in the chair and receiving Bellatrix's Cruciatus curses. He replayed the scene over again in his brain, 'It hurts doesn't it little Anna? You have got some willpower in you my daughter, but we will soon break you of that...' he thought about the words Bellatrix had said. It was Anna; he had been in Anna's body; felt what she felt, saw what she saw, and heard what she heard. Anna was in trouble, which meant so was Ron, and apparently Draco was there too... but how? He had to tell Dumbledore.
