AN: Hi Peoples! It's me again. *laughs evilly* I'm trying to convert all of my chapters and I hope that chapter five will be ready for all of you soon.
Harry Potter and the Green Flame Torch: Chapter Four
Trapped
She could tell that something was wrong as soon as they got near Remus's house. Something in the air crackled with anticipation and maliciousness and then there was something else. Something she had felt before but didn't know what it was. She couldn't quite put her finger on it.
She looked over at Sean. She knew he felt the same thing that she did. They had learned to read each other's thoughts over the last few weeks. They didn't know how or why they did it. They just did. They could also tell when the other person was around.
Remus opened the door with a huge grin on face only to be replaced with a look of utmost surprise.
Chris and Sean slowly peaked around the door to see what Remus was looking at. There on the couch sat five people that looked about to be Remus's age.
Remus went around introducing them to Chris and Sean.
First was a lady that smelled oddly of cats. This was Arabella Figg.
Next was Mungundus Fletcher, a rather stout, balding man with a scroll on his hand. He looked extremely nervous.
After that there were various other people. That Chris didn't really remember their names.
She was very doubtful about that big black dog in the corner. The thought, "where is Padfoot?" kept running through her mind.
She could tell that Sean was equally apprehensive. Everyone's eyes kept darting to that dog in the corner. Finally Remus said something.
"Sirius, it's alright to come out now."
Suddenly there wasn't a dog in the corner anymore. It was a man that looked as though he hadn't had sleep in quite a few days.
She suddenly realized that this was Sirius Black. She almost screamed and ran out of the house but Remus's presence was keeping her there. And as she looked at Sirius he suddenly didn't look threatening or even guilty. She actually started to like him. She didn't know why she liked him. She just did. That seemed to happen to her a lot.
"Hello," he said. "It's nice to finally meet you."
She knew there was something special about him. Something that she didn't really know but was right behind the surface.
She couldn't really say anything she was just dumbstruck. Before she could do anything she heard in her head, "Furnunculus! "
"Sean no!" she screamed, as Sean sent the spell towards Sirius.
(What happened next was not really clear to anyone. It was mostly a jumble of things that all happened at once. I will try to tell you as Chris and Sean saw it.)
Chris jumped to have the spell hit her instead of Sirius. When she jumped, there wasn't the charm that Sean sent, but a different charm. It came from behind her.
Suddenly a cold, calm feeling spread over her. She didn't really feel it when her body went joltingly onto the floor, she didn't have to think or feel. It was bliss.
A thought, that wasn't her own, popped into her head. It said, "Kill everyone"
A little voice in the back of her head said back to it, "I don't want to kill these people, just say no."
The word came bubbling up from her inner-self, ready to explode and break the curse. It got almost to her vocal chords when it stopped. The curse was broken. For the first time she saw the things that were going on around her. Men in masks were shooting curses left and right and behind them there was a mirthless laugh. It was a terrible, unforgiving laugh. It chilled her bones to hear it.
All of a sudden, a curse came out of no where and hit her. The last thing she remembered was Sean running to her side and falling and not moving, then, all was black.
An indeterminable time later…
She woke up in a cold deserted room; there was a small window that was barred up. She couldn't tell where she was or how she was going to get out. If there was a way to get out.
Chris hated gut feelings. Hers were always right. No matter what.
She heard a buzzing sound and the light from the window went out. After what seemed like an eternity, the door creaked open and two of the hooded men walked in. She cowered in front of them; something she had never ever done to any one before.
Her entire being filled with hatred. "These were the men that took away my future, my friends, my home, every thing that I held dear. These men will pay in blood."
They loomed over her; slowly one of them lowered their hood. He was a tall man with white blond hair and silvery gray eves. They were like steel. She had seen those eyes before. They were Cassia and her sisters' eyes. She knew this had to be a relation of theirs, and she didn't like him one bit.
He said, "Well, if it isn't the little orphan girl, and she's all alone yet again. Why who would ever do such a thing to poor helpless little girl."
He and the person next to him rocked with mirthless laughter. It rung in her ears and wouldn't leave her alone. It just kept ringing and ringing, taunting her.
After they had stopped laughing, the blond man looked at her with a glint in his steely eyes.
"Avery," he said, "take her to the chamber on the third floor. I think I am going to have some fun with this one.
"Are you sure you want the third floor Mr. Malfoy?" said Avery in a shaking voice. "You could break her in on the second and then do the third floor."
"Would I have said the third floor if I had not wanted it?"
"No"
"Why would I want to break her in?"
"I do not know Sir."
"Then take her to the third floor."
"Yes Sir."
A silent shudder went through Chris. The cold that had been seeping through her had suddenly hit her hard. She was frozen to the spot. She couldn't have moved if she had wanted to.
Avery grabbed her from under the arms and dragged her roughly out into the stone corridor. It was dimly lit and had many branching halls that went this way and that. It was labyrinth.
Chris decided then and there that she was never going to give up hope that one day she might see the sunlight again.
AN: Thank you for reading my series. This series is hopefully going to stay this way and not have to be changed again. Thank you to every one who reviewed all the previous chapters.
Thanx -Chris Lillith
