Blood of the Innocent

Chapter 2: Home Coming

" Harry," screamed Hermione as she neared platform nine and three-quarters. The closer that she came the more her eyes bugged out. " Did a bit of growing this summer did you." Harry almost burst out laughing as she had to look almost straight up to look him in the eyes.

" What are you talking about," he said shrugging it off (His voice coming out a bit deeper than usual). Just then she gave him a OH-YOU-KNOW- EXACTLY what I'm talking about look.

" HARRY! HERMIONE ! WAIT UP," screamed another familiar voice. Harry looked over to see five balls of bright red hair. Harry realized that it was half of the Weasleys flying at him.

" Going without us," said one of the twins.

" Really Harry I thought that you liked us,' said the other getting on the train.

" Come on now," said Mrs. Weasly. " Don't want to be late for the train," she said looking at Ron and Harry the whole time.

" Honestly you would think she would have forgotten by now," whispered Ron as he put his bags on the train.

Before they knew it the scarlet train was in motion, but them being as late as they were with no seats.

" Ginny , come sit with us ," called one of Ron's youngest sister's best friends. Ginny looked sadly at her trying to figure out if she should go.

" Go sit with your friends," said Hermione. " No use in all of us being seat-less."

" Are you sure," she said looking at all of them.

" Go on," said Hermione giving her a little push.

" We're going to sit with the others," said Fred dragging George with him.

" Well, now where are we going to sit," said Ron after everyone was out of listening range.

" Are you need of seats ," said a black hooded figure behind them. Her face was complete covered so that nothing could be seen except the black robe with deep purple and silver flames running up from the floor. Her voice sounded so familiar to Harry must have looked like he was almost trying to look though the robe.

" Yes," said Hermione. " Yes we are."

" Well then follow me," said the girl. They were though to the very back of the huge train. Voices from the other compartments came to their ears.

" Good to see you again, Lupin ," said a familiar voice that only could have been Snape. ' Happy about it indeed ,' thought Harry.

" Lupin's back," said Ron.

" Wonder what took him so long ," said Hermione.

" Must have heard about what was happening," said Harry remembering reading what happened to the secret society of shape shifting humans called The Order of the Phoenix after Voldermort got a hold of it. "Nothing was to be found in the ruins of the Order," he quoted in his head.

" Poor dears, " said Hermione. " I hope some of them survived."

" I'm sure all that did are now under his control," said Harry a bit hatred burning in his voice.

" Here we are," said the girl opening a large door to one of the larger compartments. Three other hooded figures sat within their faces were completely hidden. Each with different colored flames running up their robes (red , green,blue). Both parties stared silently at each other until the purple robed girl spoke. " Told you that there was going to be someone without a seat."

" Didn't think you'd find three people," said the girl in light blue robes.

" Does it really matter," said the girl in light green robes. " You were the one that said the more the merrier."

The girl in purple went and sat back a mid sized cage that was cover in a black sheet. " Well come sit," she said beckoning for someone to sit next to her. " I don't bite you know."

The other two started to giggle with the other sitting in silence. This broke the ice for everyone to get comfortable. Ron and Harry seemed to stay quite as they sat on the other side of the green flamed girl. Her hood remained on as she reached behind the cage to a small bundle hanging from it. She took it and unwrapped it in her lap reveling a small gray tabby cat.

" Well, wake up you sleepy head," she said to the cat.

The cat got to its feet never opening its eyes. It stretched in a cat like fashion and hopped on her shoulder. " Looking" in Harry and Ron direction opened its eyes in reveal two unnaturally aqua colored eyes. Harry and Ron both jumped as the cat meowed which was quite loud for such a small cat.

" Tiger, don't scare these poor people ," said the owner of the cat that looked at her like she could understand every word the girl said. " Her bark is much worse than her bite," said the girl to Harry. " She's really a sweet cat." And as if she heard what the girl had been saying the cat jumped to Harry's shoulder. Harry was nervous wondering if he was going to get the scratching of a life time, but was put to ease when the cat started to purr in his ear. Her whiskers tickled his ear so that he started to giggle. He started to pet her as her purrs become more intense. " See ," said the girl. The cat migrated to Harry's lap where Ron joined in.

" Hope your not planning to go anywhere," said the girl.

" I wish I had a cat like this," said Ron pointing to Pig buzzing around the cage at the sight of the cat. " All I have is that stupid owl."

" It's so cute," said the girl getting up and moving next to the cage. The small owl quickly shut up and moved against the cage to let the girl pet it.

" Blaimy, how did you do that I can get the stupid thing to shut up," said Ron.

" This little thing may be hyper, but certainly no stupider than Hedwig over there," said the girl. She opened the cage to let the very calm Pig out of his cage. The little bird happily took a perch on the black robe. Ron looked like his eyes were going to fall out.

" How did you do that ," said Ron. " Why he's so tame." Ron reached out of the small bird who opened his small wings and took flight landing in Ron's red hair.

" Wow ," said Ron as the little bird fell asleep.

Something was bugging Harry in the back of his mind.

" How did you know my owl's name ," said Harry who stopped petting the cat in his lap. The cat quickly jumped to Ron who was sitting very still..

" Ummm.." The other two stopped to look at the blue flamed girl , and the third in red flames that Harry thought was asleep still didn't move. " You'll find out soon enough."

************************************************************************

" Everyone take your seats," bombed Dumbledore's voice over the students. The whole hall took their seats. " The sorting shall now commence." The first years came before the three-legged stool. On top of it was an old, beat up, dirty, wizards' hat. Everyone stared in silence waiting for the hat to sing it's little song. It's silted mouth opened widely as it took in large breath.

Colors from the rainbow,

Control your very fate,

That you didn't know you had,

Noble Griffendor in fiery red,

Clever Ravenclaw in sly blue,

Friendly Huffelpuff in mellow orange,

Power hungry Sltherian in an acid green,

These colors choose your meaning,

So put me on and try your luck,

Hope that your meaning will not fail and bring about something else,

A thunderous applause come from the whole hall, so that only the people in the back heard the large door swing open. The teachers stopped and looked as the lone hooded figure came in taking aim with a large cross bow. The whole hall went silence as one by one people saw that they had a visitor.

" Sheba ," boomed her loud voice taking aim in the enchanted sky." Don't make me make you come down."

She was answer by a swarm of metal stars. " Fine have it your way," she said escaping them easily. She took aim at nothing and fired on the ceiling. " You're loosing your touch," she said mockingly as she heard a cry. The whole hall looked like it was under some kind of spell. Even the teacher's table Dumbledore was frozen, only his confused eyes moved. His mouth open ready to tell instructions telling them to stay calm. All eyes were on the ceiling looking for any kind of movement in the thick thunderclouds that had been forming since they had gotten there.

Another swarm was sent from the ceiling from behind catching the hooded figure off guard. Her movement was a blur as she moved at the last possible moment. She stumbled clutching her right shoulder as she fell.

" Who's lost their touch now," said a thickly accented shadow in the "sky". A blur of a shadow swooped down to the middle of the room. The whole hall was divided in their reaction. An arrow was sticking out of one of the eight legs of the spider-like person. Black hair covered everything below the abdomen that looked completely spider. The only part that looked even remotely human was from the waist up. Her skin was a dark olive color, and long braided hair of midnight that matched her eight eyes. Her face was beautiful besides the yellow fangs that were contorted into a smile.

The fallen figure made no move as the spider moved cautiously closer to her.

"A bit speech less," she said taking out a large whip and uncurling it. " Well, that's a bit out of the ordinary. That poison must have been better than I expected." She cracked it in the air above the figures head." You know we do miss you back in the Order." She came closer all legs clicking on the stone floor. " Voldermort would love to have his pretty little lioness back. You know he's offered a lot of power for whoever brings anyone of you back, but why should I stop at one of you," her voice was venomous.

" We will never go back to the Order," she said getting up. Her hood still covered her face, but her eyes glowed a murky gray. " And you will never live to see it again." They were nothing but blurs as they sprang into the attack. The clang of metal rang in the hall making the sound reverberate against the walls. Dishes and food where thrown to the floor as they stopped to struggle against each other's weight. Grunts of effort came from both of them.

" It's taking effect," said the spider. " I can feel your muscles relaxing *grunt* , and soon they will be completely relaxed.. forever."

" Then I have to live just long enough to kill you," she growled. Her muscled tingled with the energy she was burning.

" Karen," called the girl in green flamed robes as she suddenly skidded into the hall. " Oh crap," she said feeling a blade being pressed against her throat.

" Never leave you back open to attack," whispered her blond attacker.

" Arson," she asked questionably.

" In the flesh," he whispered kissing her neck affectionately. "Bet you never thought you'd see your life in my hands again."

" You blood sucking freak," she said trying not to draw blood against the blade.

" Can't fight what you truly are," he whispered. " Ok, lion give up the fight, come along peacefully and I promise I won't kill the wolf," his voice echoed in the silent hall. She growled frustrated that she would have to just give up, but she couldn't let her friend be killed. She let her weight slowly back off against the stalemate.

" Do anything to harm her and I'll come back to haunt you," she said her stare dead as she looked at the large stained glass window behind the teacher's table.

" What are you looking at," said the spider shoving her off the table.

" Nothing really.. just Death," she replied her eyes becoming glazed over, so they were only dim gray orbs under her hood.

" Don't worry kitty if your not dead by the time we get back the master might take pity on you."

She laughed never looking at her. " It's not coming for me. yet. Good-bye Arson," she whispered her eyes crackling gray.

" Where am I.." He said as an arrow ran him through. The glass shattered above the teacher's table. The strong winds whipped around the room carrying the vampires dust as he reached toward the window. Everyone watched the storm rage on in the night. A clash of thunder streaked across the sky showing the figure that had launched the arrow. It flew into the room with its unmoving wings outstretched into the hall landing softly with powerful grace. It quickly reloaded the another arrow into the large black bow.

" You guys miss me," she said letting her hood fall. Harry eyes must have been popping out, because he swore that she looked like the girl from his dream.

" Took long enough," growled the green robed girl as her friend helped her to her feet. " Hey, you wanna go deal with the others outside," she said pointing to the window. She turned her head to the Griffendor table where the two figures were frozen. " What's with the spider chick," she cocked her head to the side. " What's the matter with Karen." Her brow started to wrinkle with worry as her green eyes started bulge and glow. " You so better tell me what's in those stars," her voice became dark as she took one step in the spider's general direction. " NOW," she shouted.

" She'll never live long enough to find the cure," said the spider. " Put the poor kitty cat out of her misery."

" You better hope that's not true," she said taking another step. " Cause if she dies I have a large can of Raid that I've been itching to get rid of."

" If you only knew how wrong you are little Dragnet," she said looking around her. She pushed the hooded girl off the table letting her fall to floor as she grabbed the person closest to her." How wrong you are," she repeated jumping toward the window.

She came up short being cut off by an on coming arrow that snapped a leg clean off. The student flew from her arms stopping inches from the stone floor. He hovered there waiting for the impact of the floor that would never come. Opening one eye he realized he was out of harms way he ran to help the girl in green.

" Dare to try that again," she said taking another arrow out. " You only have six legs left. " Make that five," she said taking aim and letting go.

" STOP," said a weak voice from behind her. " You will gain nothing from killing her."

" She's not getting away with killing you," hatred made her voice darker. " She's already gotten away with too much."

" She never killed Eric," said Karen. " She can't help the fact that she's Wasp's sibling. What is wrong with you? How can I trust everyone with you if you go chasing after childish revenge?"

" But Voldermort will know where we are," she said her voice starting to break. " He'll kill everyone. Did you forget what happened at the Order? You were going to kill her anyway."

" I hate to break up the little walk down memory lane, but you're the one who killed my brother. You know you can't just go around killing my family off without me retaliating," said the spider as she changed at the un- hooded blue girl knocking her to the ground. She stayed down not caring that her weapons were knocked out from under her. "It will be fun to put my brother's killer to rest."

" Get Karen out of here," she shouted from the floor. " I can't help the fact that she wants to redeem her family honor. So if it's my blood noble spider you want please feel free to die for it , because as you can see my lioness friend is NOT doing well. Or." She said standing up and motioning to the large window. " You can be free to fight this somewhere else."

" And let these innocent people miss out on this never," said the spider taking out a large whip. " Let us begin. Chose a weapon."

"TALON, I'LL NEVER FORGIVE YOU. NEVER.," said Karen sweat pouring from her brow. " Just stop the fighting."

" Chosen," she said her voice breaking again. "I thought I told you to take her out of here."

Other hooded figures came from the darkness to help the only green.

" You wish," said the spider cracking the whip across her shoulder drawing blood. " Care to chose something else."

" No," she whispered feeling the whip cut across her abdomen. She winced as the whipped rained down on her bring silver to the surface.

" I didn't know Dragon's bleed silver," she mocked taking a second to wipe it from her whip.

" Why," she said no pain in her voice. " Don't you just leave. I don't want to kill you."

" Well, I want to kill you," said the spider cracking the whip.

" Fine," she shouted . " Finish the warrior whose heart was murder in the hands of you brother. I'm already dead, so put my soul to rest."

" Oh yes, my brother told me about that one," she said her voice becoming dark. " He barraged about taking down that hawk for weeks. He used to tell me how he held all the information from him until the very end. Then it came out like a damn busting open when he started to threaten people in the Order. Seemed like he was almost happy to get it off his chest"

" I know how he died. Had I been there five minutes earlier it would have had your brother."

" Well, you didn't did you," said the spider. " So you killed him always."

" You are going to pay for this," she said snarling.

The spider giggled then. " Your weakness goes so deep. It's so easily to provoke."

" Provoke this," she said pouncing on the spider easily overtaking it. Her eyes glowed bright red as she waited for it to go still. " Your soul will be his," said the spider as she stopped struggling.

The girls in green and red flames returned skidding into the hall.

" Karen's dead," said the one in red tears visible on both their hood.

" She wanted you to have this ," said the other throwing a large red stoned necklace. She caught it easily and slipped it on. As she did the hall seemed to come back to life.

The hooded people ran out not wanting any attention. Most of the older students wanted to know what they could do to help including Harry, Ron , Hermione, Fred , George ,and Oliver ( Ginny had ran after one of her friends that couldn't take it). The teachers took action float the corpse though the broken window with the help of some students, and clear . The girl had crawled out before anyone had touched it and was now in the middle of the hallway outside the hall where she was discovered.

Her bowing and lay off to the side. She was punching the wall , and leaving a large indent were her fists touched.

" Stop it," said Hermione bravely. Everyone looked at her like she had kicked a large wasp nest.

She stopped and turned her head. Her eyes glowed a mix of red and green with tears running like small rivers. Long fangs were bearded and a long whip mark was pouring out silver blood. There were other marks all over her body including one in a similar spot of where the ax had been. Her face flashed pain that seemed unbearable to those who looked on. " You want some of this." Her words were more animal like than human.

Hermione was frozen with fright as the girl turned by and leaned against the wall.

Her sobs were quite and almost couldn't be heard. " Well Harry," she said still sobbing. " This is why I knew your owls name. I'm one of the surviving members of the Order." She sank against the wall and started to sob again.

" Could one of you take her to Madam Pomfrey," said Professor McGonagall looking at the girls depressing state. They all started to circle around her.

" Please don't touch me," she whispered her sobs stopping. She got up and started to limp in the wrong direction.

"I'll help her," said Wood as he watched her go down the wrong hallway. " After all she did save me."
