Belle then backed away from Draco, "I have to get home, I need to do some things there. I havent seen my horse Rocket in forever" she laughed and gave him another hug. "See ya in two days Draco!" she yelled and ran back to the fireplace. She threw in some floo powder and arrived back at her estate. She found Sophie sitting upstairs on her bed and ran over to her black notebook.
Milo& Lia,
Just got home and things are already boring, going out for a run then coing back home. I found a great dress of my mothers and will be wearing it to the Malfoy ball. I will need to have some pictures to show you both. I miss you both already, I love you and dont forget me. ~Pixel~
So with that she closed her book and ran outside and out her back door. She turned into a unicorn and ran as fast as she could through the forest. She once again saw the thorns and felt the cold wind hitting her. She ran as fast as she could feeling the ache each time her front legs stretched far out in front of her. She saw a dead tree laying over the path ahead of her and decided to jump it. She felt all of her body throw into the force in her legs as she leaped over the log and continued running. She felt her mane get whipped to the side and her tail flying high behind her.
This was free, this was her doing whatever she pleased. Nobody could stop her in this so wouldnt stop herself. She saw the trees whip by her and only stoped when seeing her horse pastures. 'Finally home' she thought and changed back into her normal self. She walked into her house and ran upstairs to her bathroom. She took a shower then got dressed for dinner. She dressed in a silky emerald shirt and a long black skirt before meeting her father downstairs at the table and taking a seat. "Good evening father" she said and started on her supper.
After supper she gave her father a kiss on his head and walked into her room. She then walked over to her desk and started a note to Ron.
Ron,
Long trip home, but happy to be here. Send the twins my love, and I hope your doing well. I miss you so much and am wishing that I'll glance out my window and see you standing there in the garden waiting for me. I find myself doing a doubletake quite often. If I hadnt left my message clear enough the other night then, thank you for the hairsticks. I found a dress that they will fit perfectly with. I will be wearing them to the Malfoy ball. And more good news, I wont be atteding with Percy. Best news of all though is that my father invited two of my friends from America to see me when I got off of the train. Their names are Chris and Aly and we were all animagi together. We even went as far as to getting tattoo's saying our animagi nicknames. My nickname is Pixel, I'll have to show you when I get back. Well its very late and I will be very busy tommorrow so I will try and write to you. I love you ~Isabel~
She then gave the note to her fathers owl and sent him out. On her way back to her bedroom she met up with her father. "Belle, tommorrow night we are having the Malfoys for dinner. I urge you to dress for company and be at the table at a normal time." he said before giving her a hug and going off to bed. She simply said "Yes father" and went back to her room.
'So Draco is coming over?' she thought and laid on her bed. 'Last time Draco was here we shared a kiddie table' she laughed and closed her eyes. "Night Sophie" she whispered and went to sleep.
When she awoke the next day she got dressed into a pair of black jeans, a green turtleneck and put her hair back into a long braid. Her father was downstairs in his study, so she quietly tried to sneak past him. "Isabel" she heard and went in to see him. "Good morning father" she said and sat in a chair in front of him. "Isabel, I've spoken with Percy Weasley this morning and told him of your non willingness to go with him to the ball. He seemed quite shocked and thought that you were both getting along so well" he said now looking at her over his book.
"Father, I dont know what you call being interested in a girl. I'm just guessing though that you believe that hitting a woman is wrong. He's trying to hurt my father, he doesnt want me as a wife, he wants me as a sex slave!" she screamed and stormed out of his study. She saw him get up after her and yell for her "Isabel Oakes you get back here!" he screamed as he saw her jump out the large open bay window. When she landed she was a unicorn and took off into the forest behind the estate.
She ran and ran as far as she could She had to get away. She would surely be in trouble for this. Her father had no idea of her animagi backround but she had no place to go. Her father would attack her mother when she was a wild spirit in this way. She admired her mothers wild spirit and how she was never broken. Belle hated it when she cowered to her fatrher but now realised that she had stood strong to him. She had butt heads with him and had escaped. She an for an hour then returned home to her room. Her plan was to grab Sophie, the journal, and the dress of her mothers.
She got up to her room and ran in for the things that she wanted to take. She then heard her door slam and new she wasnt alone. She looked back and saw her father standing in front of her closed door holding a whip in his hands. She turned around by instinct and kneeled down in front of her bed. The whip stung her back and she let out a piercing scream as she flung forward onto her bed to brace the pain.
When she was hit with the next lash she fell to the floor reveiling her back and the tattoo saying Pixel. Her father looked to her "What is Pixel!" he yelled. She then looked up from the floor to him with tears streaming down her cheeks and put on her most angry face. "Its me dad.....I am Pixel!" she screamed, he then back handed her and she fell back to the ground.
"You have no right to speak to me like that! I am your father and you will show me respect!" he yelled. She then pushed herself up to stand in front of him "I dont respect you, I fear you!" she screamed and he again slapped her but this time she braced the pain and shot her face back to him. Her eyes were now burning and the tears in them had dried and were now replaced with anger and hatred.
"You will stay in here until dinner then you will accompany me to dinner. We have guests and your dislike for me wont interfere with that. She then sat down on her bed as he exited and slammed the door. She quickly wrote of the whole thing to Chris and Aly. They were still on the plane and hadnt kept the notenook with them as they didnt answer. She then decided it was time to get ready for the party and got dressed into a long black skirt that was slit up to her knee and a long tight silver shirt that flared at her wrists. She had put her hair up in the hairsticks Ron had bought her and she walked out of her room.
When she walked down the stairs she saw Draco, Lucius, and Narcissa all standing there. She smiled sweetly and tried to ignore the stabbing pain in her back from the lashes. "Good evening" she said. Draco then walked with her into the dining room. They took their seats and started with supper. Belle was silent throught out the whole meal and would only speak when spoken too.
Afterwards she asked to be excused and Draco followed her out onto the patio and into the garden. She walked out into the gazebo and sat there staring up into the sky. leaning over exposed the small of her back and the red lash marks accross her tattoo. She then felt a icy coldness against her back and turned to see Draco with an ice cube. "Give it a few minutes then you'll be better he said as she winced from the pain.
Belle then backed away from Draco, "I have to get home, I need to do some things there. I havent seen my horse Rocket in forever" she laughed and gave him another hug. "See ya in two days Draco!" she yelled and ran back to the fireplace. She threw in some floo powder and arrived back at her estate.
