Chapter 13: Capture
Ginny let out a squeal of terror as she looked up and saw the dark mark. She had heard her parents talk about the Dark Mark and Death Eater attacks, but she had never actually been part of one! Ginny felt absolutely terrified.
Harry grabbed her hand and led her down a dark alley where they were safely out of harm's way. They could hear people screaming and spells being yelled. Harry peered out of the alleyway.
"There are aurors coming out now," he told her. "Go find Ron and Hermione. Use the passageway that we did and take them back to the castle. I'm going to go see if I can help the aurors. There don't seem to be very many of them," Harry told her sounding determined.
Ginny felt horrified. She definitely did not want to go out during the middle of an attack. She looked up at Harry for help, but he had already left to help the aurors. She had known what was going to happen when she came. So why did she come? She looked around for some sort of sign of help. She sighed. She couldn't back out now.
Before Ginny lost her nerve, she stood up and ran out of the alley. She thought for a moment where they might be. She ran to the Three Broomsticks as fast as she could. She burst through the door. She looked for Ron or Hermione in the room. Everyone in the room appeared to be happy and probably didn't know that there was an attack going on.
"There's an attack in Hogsmeade!" Ginny screamed.
Everyone turned and stared at her like she was crazy.
Ron who had been sitting at the table near the door got up and said, "What are you talking about Ginny?"
"Ron! Harry and I went for a walk this morning and we overheard these two guys talking about an attack on Hogsmeade!" Ginny told Ron in a rush of words.
Ron looked at her confused, "What'd you say, Gin?"
"There's an attack going on!" Ginny told him frantically.
Ron looked unsure of what to do once she had told him that.
"Where's Hermione?" Ginny asked suddenly remembering that Harry had asked her to find both of them.
Ron shrugged and said, "I don't know."
He still seemed to be taking in what Ginny had told him.
The rest of the people in the Three Broomsticks had left. Ginny wondered why since they hadn't believed her. She looked outside. She could see Death Eaters slowly walking up to the entrance of the Three Broomsticks. Had Ron been the only student? Had everyone else disapparated??
Ron turned and stared wide eyed and open mouthed at the entrance.
Ginny looked around desperately for some place to hide. They had to get out of there or hide or do something! They couldn't just stand there and wait for the Death Eaters to come!
The Death Eaters were inching closer to the door every second. Ginny let out a small moan. Ron was still in shocked.
She grabbed Ron's arm and ran to the bathrooms. She and Ron scrunched down under a sink in a corner.
She looked around for some kind of possible exit. She spotted a small window above one of the stalls.
Voices were now coming out from the front part of the Three Broomsticks.
"Where are they? They were here just a second ago!" a voice shouted from the front.
"Ron! See that window?" Ginny asked him.
Ron nodded.
"We're going to climb out of it!" Ginny told him.
They got out from under the sink and ran into the stall.
"I think they're in the bathroom," a vaguely familiar voice said from the front.
"I know that voice," Ginny said quietly.
"How do we get out?" Ron asked.
"Break the window," Ginny told him nonchalantly.
She heard the shattering of glass. She looked up. Ron was climbing through the window. His left hand was covered in blood. He slipped out of the window. Ginny got up on the toilet to get ready to climb through the window.
The door flung open and Ginny stared at the person who had opened it. Her heart gave a great leap of joy! He wouldn't hurt her!
"Oh Seamus!" Ginny said happily. "There's an attack going on and they came to the Three Broomsticks and I was so scared!"
She climbed down from the windowsill and ran to Seamus and hugged him.
"Thank you for saving me! Thank you so much!" she muttered happily. "You're the best! Thank you!"
Seamus pulled out of her hug. "I knew that there was an attack going on," he told her slowly.
"What? How?" Ginny asked.
Seamus's eyes gleamed maliciously, like Ginny had never seen them before.
"How do you think?" he regarded her coldly.
Ginny thought for a moment and then her eyes widened in shock and surprise.
"You- you - you're the spy, aren't you?" Ginny asked him afraid of the answer. She prayed he was just joking and really going to help her.
Seamus put on a twisted little smile and said, "Yes. Who did you think it was?"
"I don't know! But I didn't think it was a Gryffindor or anything!" Ginny said angrily, slowly edging her way back to the window. "Why?"
"Why?" Seamus repeated. "Power. If there is no hope to resist him, then why do it?"
"Because it's right!" Ginny screamed at him.
"There is no good or evil, Ginny, only power," Seamus told her coldly.
"I suppose your "master" told you that?" Ginny asked.
Seamus didn't answer, so Ginny continued. "It's wrong! You're killing innocent people who didn't do anything!"
"I'm sorry you feel that way, Ginny. You could've joined us," Seamus told her pulling his wand out of his pocket.
Ginny's eyes widened in horror as he pulled out his wand and pointed it directly at Ginny's heart.
"You're not going to kill me, are you?" Ginny asked him slowly.
Seamus smiled lazily. "Of course not, Ginny."
"Then you'll just let me leave," Ginny said turning towards the window and getting ready to exit.
Seamus followed her and grabbed her arm. "I didn't say that I'd let you go."
"Then, what are you going to do with me?" Ginny asked confused.
Seamus smiled at Ginny idly. "We just need to get him to come."
"Who?" Ginny asked more confused every second.
"Harry," Seamus answered slowly.
"Why me?" Ginny asked still confused. "Why not Professor Potter or Evans?" Ginny asked before realizing her mistake.
"Evans?" Seamus asked. Now it was his turn to be confused. "Why her? You were the two who were walking together this morning."
'They think we're going out!' Ginny realized. 'They think he'll come get me.'
"Why Evans?" Seamus asked coldly.
"Nothing! No reason," Ginny told him feeling anxious.
Seamus looked at her for a second and then must have just decided that Ginny must have just made a mistake.
"Let me go!" Ginny pleaded with him.
"I can't," he answered.
He looked at the window and saw some blood dripping on it. He grabbed her hand to examine it.
"Who else was in here?" he asked.
"Didn't you see him when you were attacking?" Ginny asked.
"We were only focusing on you. Who was it? Potter?" Seamus asked.
"No!" Ginny cried.
"Who?" Seamus asked her.
"Ron was here!" Ginny yelled. "I hope he left, too," she silently added.
Seamus nodded at her answer.
"Let me go!" she begged him once more.
"I already told you, I can't!" he raised his voice a little more than necessary. "What happened to everyone else in the front?"
"I think they disapparated," Ginny answered sounding terrified. "Or they left when they saw you coming. Was there anyone left?"
"No, that's why I asked," Seamus answered.
There was a pause. Ginny opened her mouth to beg Seamus to let her go again.
"I have to take you to my master, now, ok?" he asked her.
She opened her mouth and whispered, "Please don't." The sound had barely come out, but she knew that he had heard her.
"I have to," he answered.
Silent tears were now streaming down her face. She walked out of the bathroom with Seamus with her head hanging down. She didn't want anyone to see that she was crying.
"You have her?" asked one of the Death Eaters.
"Yes," he answered.
"Good. I have set up a portkey. You two will take it out of here. Most of us have already disapparated. You'll want to go quickly before the aurors come," the person answered and then must have disapparated.
Ginny wiped her eyes off on her sleeves and looked up around the Three Broomsticks. There were table turned over and chairs were broken. She slowly raised her head to look at the street. It was littered with dead and wounded bodies. The store across the street was on fire.
"If only Harry and I'd left to warn Dumbledore sooner," Ginny muttered to herself.
"It wouldn't have made a difference," Seamus told her.
"What do you mean?" she asked questioningly.
"You'll find out soon enough," Seamus answered.
"I want to know now," Ginny responded coldly.
"And I said that you'd find out soon enough," Seamus answered equally coldly.
Seamus dragged her over to a table in the corner.
"This is the portkey that's going to take us to him," Seamus told Ginny.
"Let me go, Seamus! I won't tell anyone about you! Just please, let me go!" Ginny cried desperately one last time. "You can modify my memory just to be safe."
He looked over at her annoyed. "How many times do I have to tell you, I can't let you go!?!?!"
Hot tears came out of Ginny's eyes once more. She didn't bother to stop them this time.
Seamus grabbed Ginny's hand and held it to the portkey, along with his own hand.
Ginny felt a hook behind her navel grab her and in a whirl of colors she felt herself land on solid ground.
She fell to the ground. She didn't bother to pick herself up; she just lied there and let her tears flow freely. She heard footsteps leave her where she was. She thought about running away, but she was drained of all the energy she had. She just lied still on the ground. The tears came harder and faster. She heard footsteps approach her, but she still didn't bother to get up. The feet came to a stop right in front of her.
"How nice to see you, Miss Weasley," said an unusually high voice.
Ginny looked up. She had never seen him before, but she knew exactly who's face she was looking up at.
"Voldemort," she whispered, forcing herself to say the name. She had to show that she wasn't afraid, even if she was.
"Get up," he told her.
Ginny obediently did as she was told. She didn't think it was a good idea to make him mad.
"I suppose you're wondering why you're here? Or perhaps Seamus already told you?" he asked her.
"He did," she answered avoiding her eyes.
His lips curled into a smile. "Good."
Ginny tried to ask why it wouldn't have made a difference if she and Harry had warned Dumbledore sooner, but she couldn't bring herself to do it.
"Seamus, take her to her cell," he said to Seamus.
"Yes, Master," Seamus said from somewhere behind Ginny.
He grabbed her hand and led her out of the room she was in and down a deep and narrow hallway.
"Why?" Ginny asked Seamus.
"Why what?" he asked her.
"How can you serve him?" she responded.
"I already told you," Seamus answered sounding annoyed with her.
"You're only fifteen," Ginny said slowly. "Don't you want a normal childhood?"
"Going to a school for wizards and witches, isn't exactly normal," Seamus answered.
"Neither is killing hundreds of innocent people!" Ginny yelled.
"Keep your voice down," Seamus warned her.
They walked on in silence until they reached a small damp, derelict, little cell. He pushed Ginny into it and locked the door.
"You told me I'd know why getting to Dumbledore sooner wouldn't have made a difference. I never found out," Ginny told Seamus as he was about to turn and leave.
Seamus smiled wryly and answered, "Generally, dead people can't do anything to stop us."
Ginny stared at him looking shocked.
"You mean you killed him?" she asked, but Seamus had already left and was heading down the hallway.
Ginny went to the corner of the cell and once more laid her head down on the hard stone floor and cried once more.
She was trapped, hungry, tired and she was most likely going to die in this small little cell.
