Chapter 6
It was Saturday and Harry had been at Headquarters for almost two weeks. He had gained a lot of weight but was still terribly thin. Harry was now allowed out of bed but rarely choose to leave his room. He didn't even come down on his birthday. Harry didn't want to put anyone in danger so he decided that he was going to leave.
He quickly scribbled a note and hid his wand in his pocket. Mrs. Weasley had just brought Harry up some more food so he had a half hour to escape. Harry silently crept down the side of the house.
Once on the ground Harry felt someone's presence. An unwelcome persons presence. Bellatrix Lestranges' presence.
Harry froze in his tracks while the Slytherin and Gryffindor sides of his brain fought it out. The Slytherin side was trying to convince him to run away and save himself. The Gryffindor side was trying to convince to avenge Sirius' death. The argument went on for five minutes when the Gryffindor side finally won out.
"Show yourself Lestrange!" Harry yelled. He waited a few seconds. When it was clear that nothing was going to happen he tried again. "I know you're there Lestrange. Show yourself now unless you're to cowardly." At being called a coward Bellatrix promptly removed her invisibility cloak.
"Well, well if it isn't Potter. You're just the person I wanted to see." Bellatrix said.
"To bad the feeling's not mutual." Harry responded.
"The Dark Lord will be pleased that I was able to capture you." Bellatrix went on as though Harry had not said a word.
"You haven't captured me. Has Voldemort not taught you that to capture someone they have to be under your control. At the moment I'm quite capable of doing anything I please." Harry told her.
"I told you not to say his name!" Bellatrix shrieked. "Stupefy!"
At jet of red light flew toward Harry. He easily side stepped the spell and started sending every spell he had ever learned at Bellatrix. The result was that she was so busy dodging spells that she wasn't able to send any toward Harry.
After fifteen minutes of dodging spells, Bellatrix was hit with a disarming charm. Once Harry had broken Bellatrixs' wand in two he walked over to her. She flinched a little when she saw the hatred in Harrys' eyes but regained her composer quickly.
"Are you going to kill me like you did back at the Ministry the night my dear cousin died?" Bellatrix asked.
Ron, Ginny, Hermione, Neville and Luna were all heading up to Harrys' room. Ron knocked three times then entered. The five friends were surprised to not see Harry, quickly looked around the room. Hermione found a note on the desk and called the other's over so they could read it.
Dear whoever gets this note first,
I have decided that everyone would be safer if I was not around. Don't worry I will be on the Hogwarts Express on September 1 like always. I would greatly appreciate it if you could bring my luggage to the station. Don't come looking for, you won't change my mind. Please make sure that Hedwig stays safe. Sincerely, Harry Potter
Ron was the first to break out of his trance. He quickly ran out of the room and down the stairs. Ginny, Hermione, Neville and Luna were not far behind. They burst into the kitchen and Ron said.
"Mum, Remus Harry's gone."
"What do you mean?" Lupin asked jumping up from the table.
"He left this note. You have to find him." Ginny said handing the note to Lupin.
"He hasn't been gone for more then fifteen minutes." Mrs. Weasley said. "Ron I want you to take everyone to your room and stay there. I'm going to call Dumbledore."
Lupin hurried out the door to try and catch up with Harry. It didn't take Lupin very long to find him. What Lupin saw made him pale.
"How dare she bring up Sirius." Harry thought.
Harry had cornered Bellatrix. She was exhausted from all the running she had done and was in no shape to apparate. Harry wanted to cause Bellatrix pain, she deserved it. He was brought out of his thoughts by Bellatrixs' screams. When Harry looked at her she was twitching around on the ground screaming.
"Only one curse can do that." Harry thought. "The Cruciatus Curse."
Once Harry realized what was going on the curse was lifted. He looked around for another person even though he knew no one else was there. Bellatrix made it to her feet and said.
"You learned how to use an unforgivable curse I see."
"I didn't do that." Harry said firmly.
"If you insist." Bellatrix answered. "Kill me if you dare. It won't matter much. The second war has started, Potter, and let me be the first to tell you that you won't live to see it end."
Harry paled slightly. His attention was then ripped away from Bellatrix when he felt Lupins' presence.
"I'm going to kill her this time." Harry thought.
No sooner had Harry had this thought did he see Bellatrix fall to the ground dead. She looked as though she had been killed by the Avada Kedavra Curse.
"She's dead! I killed her!" Harry yelled joyfully as Lupin ran up to him. Then the words Harry had just said hit him. "I killed her. I killed someone." Harry said shakily.
Lupin levitated Bellatrix back to Headquarters. He kept a hand on Harry's shoulder even though Harry was to shaken to run. Once inside Harry ran up to his room. Lupin left Bellatrixs' body with Dumbledore and then followed Harry. He found Harry sitting on his bed shaking.
"What happened?" Lupin asked.
"She's dead. I killed her." Harry said to himself. Then noticing Lupin said. "R-R-Remus?"
"Yes Harry, what is it?" Lupin asked.
"I-I did all o-of it w-without a w-wand." Harry answered.
"What do you mean?" Lupin asked staring to get worried.
"I-I t-thought th-that I had t-taken m-my w-wand out, but I d- didn't." Harry replied. "Remus." Harry said suddenly realizing what he had just done.
"What Harry?" Lupin asked.
"I just used two of the unforgivable curses without a wand." Harry said coming out of his trance. "Get out! I might use them on you too!" Harry said to Lupin.
A/N Ok so there's three more chapters. As I said before the story is complete so all of it will be posted but it would be nice to get some feedback. I really like writing (duh) and would like to know what I could do better for next time. Thanks. Padfootgurl
