The girls walked up to the Castle thinking they were in for a lovely meal. They were most wrong. Katie went in first about 5 steps in, then stopped suddenly. Anna came through the door.

"What is…Oh my God!" Anna came up to Katie. Katie looked at her friend wildly.

"W-we missed d-dinner." Katie broke down sobbing. It took Anna a second to realize what her friend just said. At first she thought she was upset because she was very hungry. Anna took a second look at the Great Hall. It was on fire.

"Well, by the looks of what the fire has done, it's been burning for a while. It would have started before most people go down to dinner." Katie nodded.

"Ok, right…George always goes down in the middle of the dinner." Katie nodded quickly to her self and turned out the window. She smiled. Anna noticed.

"What is it?" Katie pointed out the window.

"My broom." Anna looked out the window. Katie's broom was floating over the forest. Anna shook her head.

"That charm worked well" Katie had charmed her broom to stay floating unless she told it to go down. It worked well in quiddittch. Katie nodded.

"We need to go back to the common room. You know, to see if everyone is ok." Anna nodded.

"Yea, let's go." The two girls turned and went out the door. Anna looked around nervously. She finally said, "Hold on for a second, wait here."

"Ok." Katie watched Anna fly off on her broom and sat down. 'Hmm… I wonder what was wrong with her. She seemed very nervous. Could it be about Draco?' Katie thought until she say Anna's figure emerging over the forest with Katie's broom.

"Hey! You got my broom!" Katie jumped up and went over to her. Anna smiled and handed it to her. Katie got on her broom. "Hey! Why don't we fly back to the common room? I'll race you!" Anna smiled. She mounted on her own broom and pushed off.

"Ok." Both girls flew into the air and raced towards the common room. Katie swerved just before she hit the window and raced up the building's side. Katie was about to go into the girl's dorm when Anna flew in front of her and crashed through the window of the dorm.

"Continuing the tradition, Anna?" Katie flew through the broken glass into the room. She got off her broom and leaned on it smirking. Anna and Angel had a habit of flying through windows and ceilings instead of opening them or going out a door.

"I try. I see we're taking after Draco." Katie blushed and put her broom away. Then took a deep breath.

"Down stairs?" Anna nodded and then two went down slowly. As they approached the room, they could hear whisperings and some crying. As they reached the top of the steps leading down to the common room, everyone went quiet and looked up at them. Anna leaned over to Katie.

"Is something wrong here, or is just me?" Katie nodded in agreement. Before she could respond, a badly covered sob broke the silence. Katie walked down the steps. She followed the sound to Fred who was crying into a pillow. She looked next to him at Ron who was trying hard not to cry. She raised her eyebrows in concern. Ron got up and sat further down the couch. Katie sat next to Fred and rubbed his back.

"Fred?" Fred looked up at Katie who was about to cry herself from looking at Fred. "What is it?" Fred controlled himself enough and dried his tears on his sleeve. He sighed.

"G-George." Katie gasped. "We can't find George." Katie's mouth dropped.

"You don't think…" She couldn't finish the sentence. Fred nodded. "But, he never goes down at the beginning." Fred shook his head.

"He was getting food from the kitchen so that he could bring it up here and study for the NEWTs." Now Katie did cry. Fred pulled her into a big hug and she cried on his shoulder, while he cried.

Once Anna heard that, she ran up stairs at top speed. Not from sadness, although she was, but from anger. Harry saw her do this and ran after her.

"Anna! It's Harry, open the door." Anna got her wand out and pointed at the door.

"Aloha Mora." She mumbled. Harry could sense the anger in her voice.

"What is it? I've never seen you like this." Anna smiled slyly at this.

"That's because being a Malfoy isn't all bad. Draco gets Snape to brew me a PMS potion." Harry laughed.

"Oh, but honestly, what is it?" Anna sighed.

"Who started the fire?" Harry shifted uneasily.

"Some Death Eaters." Anna swore under her breath. "What?"

"How many?"

"One of the people that got out said 5." Again, Anna swore.

"I knew it."

"You knew what?" Anna got up.

"He was part of it. I should have done something earlier. I knew something was up when he had that big meeting after Christmas. Get Katie." Harry knew better than to protest. He nodded and went out. When he came down, talking had started again and Fred and Katie were still in the position they had been when he left them. Harry went over and rubbed Katie's shoulder gently, much like she had done to Fred.

"Katie." He said it so quietly, it was almost a whisper. Katie let go of Fred and looked at him with red puffy eyes. "Anna wants you in the girl's dorm." Katie nodded and waved to Fred weakly. She walked up and found Anna sitting on her bed with her head in her hands.

"Anna." Anna looked up. "What now?"

"He was part of it, I know it." Katie didn't have to ask who he was.

"Do you think Draco was part of it?" Anna nodded.

"Yea. AHHHH!" Katie looked at Anna surprised. "Sorry, had to get that out." Katie smiled. "I have to go, you can come if you want."

"Sure, where are you going." Anna shook her head.

"Just get your broom and follow me." Katie raised an eyebrow, but then shrugged and got her broom. "Ok, let's go." They mounted their brooms and flew out the window which Anna actually opened instead of flew threw. They flew over to where Katie had met Anna before.

"Anna, why a…" She didn't have time to finish. Anna threw her hand over Katie's mouth.

"Sh! Here wear this." Katie felt a cloak being thrown over her. She fell backwards from the weight of the heavy cloak. When she looked around she couldn't see herself.

"Anna! I can't see myself."

"That's because your wearing an invisibility cloak and be quiet, Draco's coming." Katie quieted down without further question. After the Crucio incident, Katie had become quite afraid of the blond haired boy.

"I see you came." Anna turned quickly to see her brother leaning on a tree. Ann rolled her eyes.

"I see you like leaning, you've made it quite a trademark today." Draco laughed his evil laugh.

"Really? I believe, this is the first time I've talked with you today. The note from breakfast telling you to come here doesn't count of course."

"What is it Draco?" Anna was getting annoyed. "Cut the crap."

"Oh, growing up I see, Anna? That was some strong language." He said sarcastically and teasingly both at the same time. For a second Anna was amazed at his skill for putting so many emotions into two sentences. Then she came back to reality and glared at him. Draco stood up and walked towards her. "I wanted to discuss your future Anna."

"And?" Draco was obviously not expecting this response as his eyes widened for a second then narrowed VERY tightly.

"Don't play dumb with me, Anna. I believe your friend must have told you about what I did to her." Anna's eyes now narrowed like Draco's and she walked over to him. "Sit." Anna sat reluctantly, not wanting to give into her brother, but at the same time not wanting to get him mad. To her surprise she sat next to him. "As you know, I am following in Father's footsteps by becoming a Death Eater. When I am old enough, I will become Voldemort's right hand man." Anna shuddered at this thought.

"And why does this concern me?" Draco looked like he was about to hit her.

"Because if you don't join the Death Eaters then you will be up there with Potter on people to kill. It may be a surprise to you, but I don't want you in the kind of danger. I want you to become a Death Eater." Anna sighed.

"Funny you should bring this up today." Draco raised an eyebrow. "I was thinking of becoming one today." He smiled.

"Good. Now will you become one?" Anna closed her eyes for a moment and was silent for a good 5 minutes.

"What will happen if I don't."

"You will die." Draco seemed reluctant to say it. Anna nodded.

"Then yes." Katie couldn't restrain herself and gasped. Draco smirked.

"Anna, may I ask what that was?" Anna paled and shook her head quickly.

"No clue!" She said this a bit too quickly. Draco smirked more and walked over to where the sound had come from. He reached a hand down and smiled when he came across something solid. He pulled off the cloak and found a scrunched up, quivering Katie. Draco must have been expecting this was who was under it because he grinned.

"We meet again." Katie turned to face him and sat up.

"Y-yes, we d-do." Draco just smirked and moved so he was standing by her face.

"What are you doing here?" Katie regained her confidence. She stood up and faced him.

"Anna asked me if I wanted to come and I said ok." Draco nodded.

"And I assume you heard what we said?" Katie looked down.

"Yes." Draco nodded and sighed. "Are you really going to be one, Draco?"

"Yes. In fact, I'm already in training." Katie groaned and sat down next to Anna.

"So what now?" Katie asked turning to Anna. Anna smiled weakly.

"You knew what you were getting into when you became friends with me." Katie smiled and nodded.

"Katie," Katie turned to Draco, who was talking to her, "You know what the problem is now, don't you?" Katie sighed, looked down and nodded.

"Yes." Anna looked down.

"Damn it, Anna! Why did you bring her, you knew what would happen!" Draco yelled at his sister.

"Because she needed to know, Draco. That's why. She knows I wanted to become a Death Eater or was thinking about it. I wanted her to know the whole story." Katie sighed exasperatedly.

"What do you want me to do?" Both Malfoy's turned to her surprised. "Well?" Draco walked over to her and looked her in her eyes.

"To join us. If you don't, Lord Voldemort will kill you." Katie closed her eyes and looked down.

"How long do I have to decide?"

"Tomorrow. I have to go to a meeting and I'm telling Him that Anna's joining me. Then tomorrow Anna will have her inauguration. Because you know, I'm going to have to watch you all day." Katie raised an eyebrow.

"But, you're not in my house and I have classes not with you!" Draco smirked. And pointed his wand at Katie. Her eyes widened.

"Eyeioasa." Katie looked very relieved.

"What?" Draco asked smirking. "This allows me to see you 24/7." Katie paled and shook her head fast.

"NO!" Anna laughed when she realized what Katie was worried about. Draco rolled his eyes.

"Grow up, I've got to go, see you soon." Katie glared at him as he disappeared into the forest.
