Apperation was not Castelias favorite thing in the world. She felt as though her entire body was being sucked into a small jar, and then the jar was chucked in a blender.

Castelia and her three death eater escorts were standing in a large room. Long steel shelves stood in rows throughout the room, each shelf housed an assortment of glittering orbs. Castelia assumes these where the prophesies. Suddenly a large crash echoed through the room, in the distance Castelia could see one of the many shelves cascade down to the floor.

" they're here!" Shrieked Bellatrix, as she dashed farther into the room. Dolohov followed quickly in her footsteps, leaving Alecto with her daughter.

" leave Potter for the Dark Lord" her mother grinned " kill everyone else" with that Alecto was gone, leaving Castelia alone. Castelia hesitated. This was the crossroads, she could run, she could hide from Voldemort. But as much as she wanted to do just that, she couldn't. This was her chance to help the order, to help George . So she ran, she ran through the stacks of glittery orbs like her life depended on it, which I kind of did.

" Castelia?" Someone shouted. Castelia spun around violently, wand in hand. In was Ginny, Castelias heart sank.

" thank god!" Ginny panted " you're exactly what we need, there are death eaters everywh..." but before Ginny could finished, Castelia shouted Expeliarmus, sending the red head flying backwards, and kept running leaving Ginny to shout after her. As She ran past Lucius Malfoy dueling Neville Longbottom, Castelia felt a swell of pride, Neville had come such a long way since the beginning of the year it was almost miraculous to see him doing so well agains such an experienced wizard.

Castelia wasn't paying attention to where she was running, so she accidentally did the exact thing she was trying to avoid. She ran straight into Harry, Ron, and Hermione.

" Cas, what? How are you here right now?" Harry asked, waving his wand around.

"Patrificus Totalus" Castelia shouted, a pang of guilt surged through her body.

" Castelia you can't.." Hermione shrieked " y...you're on our side, you are good!"

Castelia laughed " how stupid are you three? Did you really think I was your fucking friend? I am a death eater, I serve the Dark Lord" she hurled another curse at the trio.

" but what about George ?" Ron yelled " he loved you!"

Castelias heart broke. "I used him" she grinned, trying her hardest not to cry. " just like I used you" she sent another curse flying their way before bolting off in the opposite direction.

Castelia froze, a group of death eaters, including her parents, were standing on a large circular platform. Bellatrix Lestrange stood in the middle, holding none other than Sirius Black.

"Castelia, come here" Bellatrix giggled " we are going to have a little fun. your mother and father thought it would be a tremendous idea for me to teach you the ways of the Dark Lord"

Castelia walked up the platform, steadying her breathing as she went. She stopped directly in front of Sirius.

" Call Potter" Bellatrix commanded.

Castelia did as she was told. " Oh Harry" she shouted in a mocking sing song voice "someone here wants to see you!" She could hear shuffling " is little Harry Potter scarred? I can hear you, come on out and play"

" impressive" giggle Bellatrix.

The shuffling grew louder, and Harry Potter, followed by a small portion of Dumbledores Army, emerged from the aisle. Harry's face fell as soon as he saw Sirius. Terror glittering in his eyes.

"Sirius! No!" He shouted, throwing a curse at Castelia. She blocked it easily.

" restrain them" Bellatrix ordered. The Death eaters waiting around them apparated, and within seconds the DA was struggling in the arms of Voldemort's forces. Bellatrix sauntered over to Harry

"I wonder, how will it feel to lose everyone you care about" she smiled evily, as she ran her wand across Harry's face. " I bet it will hurt... awww is poor little Potter going to cry?"

Harry did indeed look like he was going to cry, but he didn't. Instead he spit at Bellatrix.

" oh so that's how it's going to be?" Cackled the witch.

" very well then. Castelia! Kill the blood traitor!"

To say that Castelias heart stopped would have been an understatement. She couldn't get air to pass into her lungs. Everything came to a halt. Time stopped, as she starred into Sirius Blacks eyes. She felt like she was looking into his soul. And then Sirius winked. It was a secretive gesture, one only she could see. But as she stared into his irises, she knew that even though it would only be the beginning of a whole lot of killing, it would be alright. Time resumed. The yelling had started up again. Castelia lifted her wand,

"Avada Kadavera!"

A blinding flash of green light erupted from the end of her wand colliding with Sirius. In an instant his body lay lifeless on the cold marble ground. Castelia could hear Harry screaming, it was a sound of pure agony and pain. She tried to tune it out as she turned to where Bellatrix was restraining Harry.

" HOW COULD YOU DO THIS!" He bellowed, flailing against the witch. "HE WAS YOUR FRIEND, HE CARED FOR YOU!"

" not sure if you noticed, Potter, but I already killed your precious godfather" Castelia sneered, willing her voice not to crack.

"YOU'RE EVIL, YOU ARE SICK, YOU..."

"Enough!" Shrieked Bellatrix, digging her wand into Harry's neck. " Dolohov, summon the Dark Lord"

Castelia watched as her father pressed his wand against his dark mark, while he grinned like a psychopath. An instant later a large dark cloud appeared, and in its wake it left behind Lord Voldemort. He didn't utter a word as he walked around the room admiring his army, his pale skin almost glittering in the light. He stopped in front of Castelia. His lifeless eyes burrowing into her own. She tried her best to keep her mind as empty and void of thought as possible, just encase he was trying to read her thoughts. However he didn't, he just stood there looking at her.

" Castelia Dolohov " he began, it was weird to hear him call her Dolohov, no one ever called her that. " you have exceeded my expectations, I believe you have more then proven yourself worthy to join my forces and be rewarded with the dark mark, well done" his voice sounded like fingernails scraping along a chalkboard.

He was pleased with her, for some reason this amused Castelia. " I am honored to serve you My Lord, and I will continue to carry out your wishes" she said, keeping her features emotionless.

" excellent" the Dark Lord said, giving her one last look before resuming his strut around the room, his long black robes flowing behind him. This time his gaze rested on Harry.

" ah, the boy who lived." He taunted " not for much longer I'm afraid, let go of him Bella"

Bellatrix did as she was told, and almost immediately Harry shouted a spell at Voldemort. The Dark Lord, of course, easily deflected it. " you are weak, Potter" he said calmly " let me demonstrate the proper technique... AVADA KADAVERA!"

"EXPELIARMUS" bellowed Harry.

The two beams of light collided in a violent clash of red and green. It looked like Christmas, under much less joyous circumstances.

It was then that the Minasty of Magic must have been alerted to the chaos that was taking place, because the deafening rings of an alarm blared through the room. Castelia smacked her hands over her ears and before she could completely comprehend what was happening, some one had taken hold of her arm and the familiar

feeling of being shoved into a jar returned.

Castelia had fallen face first into the dirt. She didn't think she would ever get used to apparating.

"Get up girl" Alecto said, not a shred of a motherly tone in her voice. Castelia did as she was told, pulling herself up off of the ground and taking in her surroundings. She wasn't quite sure where they were. They appeared to be standing in some form of garden which stood in front of a large obsidian mansion.

"Where are we?" Castelia asked, brushing the dirt off of her pajama pants.

" Malfoy Manor" her mother grunted, as she pushed the large door open. Her daughter followed her inside.

" Malfoy Manor? As in Draco Malfoy?"

"Precisely"

Absolutely fucking perfect, Castelia thought to herself.

Alecto led Castelia through the front room into a larger sitting room. The room was decorated very similarly to the slytherin common room. An ornate chandelier hang from the dark ceiling, emerald green arm chairs were scattered strategically around the room, and the carpet they were standing on? Well that thing must have cost a fortune. In the middle of the room stood a woman, who Castelia assumed what Narsissa Malfoy judging by her extreme resemblance to her son.

"I am Narsissa Malfoy, welcome to Malfoy Manor" the woman introduced her self, more so to Castelia then her mother. " you will obviously be staying here for the remainder of term as well as the summer holidays, your mother knows where your room is, she will show you too it." Narsissa said coldly, as she glided off further into the house.

"Follow me, girl" Alecto murmured, and she to began walking through the house. As they moved, Castelia tried to memorize their route. She highly doubted she would be given the grand tour later, and she didn't want to get lost. Eventually that came to a hault in front of a large black door, Alecto pushed it open. " this is your room, your things have already arrived. Don't get in anyones way." She sneered, before she turned around and hurried back down the corridor.

Castelia stepped into the room closing the door behind her. The bedroom was decorated much in the same fashion as the rest of the house. Ornate obsidian bed frame with a emerald green bed spread, dark hard wood floors, and such. There was an adjoining washroom, and a very large window, which lead out onto a balcony overlooking the garden. The room was much more than Castelia was expecting, she wasn't particularly used to living in such a big space. However she was greatful for it. Just like her mother had said, her trunk with all of her things was laying at the foot of the bed. Since she was already in her pajamas Castelia simply crawled under her newly appointed bedding and let the thoughts flow.

She had killed Sirius today. She had known him. He had been kind to her. She felt like her brain was going to explode, but she wouldn't let the tears fall. There was much more killing to come, much more death and destruction. Sirius had known the risks of being in the Order, and in that moment when Castelias wand was pointed at his heart he knew what had to be done. This thought comforted Castelia. Harry probably hated her, hell they all did. To them she was an evil murderous Death Eater. What would George think of her? There was no way he would want to appear within a ten mile radius of her after he finally found out what she had done. He too would hate her. But as much as it hurt Castelia it was for the best, by distancing herself it was keeping those she loved safe. She knew she would have to stop loving George . She would have to stop feelling all together to make her deception believable. But just for tonight she would let herself feel, and in the morning all the feelings and the emotions would be gone.
