A/N: I am so sorry for the late update! Oh goodness, I've posted this same note up like three times. Okay I just updated "A Different Kind of Love." Now I'm on this one. "A Simple Fairy Tale" will be up soon. In the upcoming weeks I shall post an epilogue to "Give into Love" my Rent fanfic. I'm also currently writing a Harry/Ginny fic, but that hasn't been posted, I'm trying out a new system and to have that story outlined before I post anything.

The reason I have not updated in so long is because of Band and School. I don't get home till nearly eight every night, and on Fridays till 10. By then I need to unwind, do homework, then sleep. So I shall only be updating on the weekends. I apologize for that, but I have so much on my plate: Honors...technically Dual Enrollment English, Honors German, and AP. Plus an Algebra 2 teacher that believes homework should be given in mass amount (I should have taken Honors Algebra II) and with color guard I'm stressed because everyone else is so. Our rival game of the season is coming up, and we have to do pre-game with the other band bleh. So I really don't have much to look forward to. Please review, they mean so much to me.

Disclaimer: I do not own the original HP charcaters.

No More Nightmares

Sophia tossed and turned in her bed. Her forehead was drenched with sweat and her bangs matted themselves against her face. She was screaming, yet her physical torment was nothing compared to her dream.

People were running in every direction, but it was useless. There weren't that many Death Eaters compared to the attendees of the funeral, but the cloaked demons knew who had the power. Them. Sophie looked in horror as men and women were shot in the back with curses of every kind. She clinched her fists and bit her lip trying to stop the tears from flowing, she had to keep quiet, she couldn't let them know she was here, hiding. She pushed her face into her knees to stop the sobs, and thought she had succeeded when she heard a laugh. Not just any kind of laugh, it was the kind that froze the blood in your veins and stopped your heart.

"Hiding princess?" Sophie didn't answer. "Perhaps you did not hear me; I asked if you were hiding." Out of this came foolish courage.

"I heard you, I just thought it was quite obvious what I was doing."

"So the air to the Miller wealth has a mouth does she?"

"I suppose."

"Why you insolent wench, you will speak when I allow it."

"That would imply ownership, you own no part of me."

"I can change that princess."

"You could try."

"Malfoy!" Sophie cringed. "Please accompany Miss Miller, you know where. Be careful with her though, I will be the one to mar that face of hers."

"Yes My Lord." Malfoy stated.

"So this is your free time hobby." Sophie stated.

"If you want to live whore, you'll do well to keep your mouth shut. Voldermort is not one to anger."

"You're pathetic."

"Perhaps, but I'm not the one in your place at the moment."

"What's that-where are you taking me? Please. Let me go. Please!"

Malfoy laughed. "Shut it blood-traitor. Matters will be worse if you beg. The men love beggars." Sophie immediately shut her mouth. Malfoy dissappareted and apparated at a manor. He roughly pulled her down cold stone steps and threw her into a room. Sophie expected worse. Something along the lines of chains and straw, instead she was amazed at what she saw. A room made of silver and green. A soft bed, and even a window. Malfoy shoved her in. "Don't get too comfortable, you will soon leave this place." He laughed and shut the door. It locked. Sophie ran to the door and began banging on it. Hoping, praying for a release. She fell to her knees and cried. Everything was being taken from her. Everything! Someone opened the door sometime later.

"How many did you kill?" Sophie asked.

"Don't talk."

"How many?" She said looking up at the body of evil. "Everyone."

"Every-my brothers."

"Dead."

"My cousins, my aunts, my uncles, my parent's friends?"

"Dead."

"You are pathetic!"

"Excuse me."

"You heard me."

Voldermort slapped Sophie. She recoiled and grabbed her cheek. "A coward too." He slapped her once again.

"You're bravery maybe admirable in the Gryffindor home, but here, it's annoying. CRUCIO!"

Sophie cried out in pain, thousands and thousands of knives were shoving into her gut. Voldermort thrived in her pain. "That's more like it." He shouted. After twenty-minutes he removed the curse. Sophie stood on all fours panting. The last thing she heard was his laugh before she blacked out.

Sophie was removed from her dream by the shaking of Remus. "Sophie! Sophie! Wake up! It's only a dream, it's only a-" He stopped as Sophie's motions and screams halted, she opened her eyes and saw Remus. She immediately began to sob. Remus sat down on the bed and pulled her in. She clutched onto his arms as her tears wet his shirt. Remus said nothing, there was nothing to say. He only rocked her as she cried. After an hour, her tears subsided and she fell asleep in his arms. He kissed the top of her head, and gently laid her back against the pillows. He pushed her hair out of her eyes. "No more nightmares...not tonight."

Sophie woke up the next morning and saw Remus asleep in a chair next to her bed. She smiled at him and stared at his face for a while. He was adorable asleep, she decided after a while. "Stop doing that." He murmured. Sophie pulled back slightly as Remus opened his eyes.

"Beg your pardon."

"'S not polite to stare."

"My apologies." Remus nodded. He leaned over and kissed her. She smiled into his kiss and returned it.

"Do you remember last night?"

"I remember my dream."

"Anything after that?"

"Nothing."

"Oh."

"I should talk to Dumbledore, I know a little more."

"Do you?"

"Yes."

"What?"

"I'll tell everyone at one time."

Remus nodded

Around noon, everyone gathered around Sophie's bed as she recounted the first night of her imprisonment. Lily closed her eyes when Sophie described the pain she endured during the curse. "Is that all you remember Miss Miller."

"I'm afraid so."

"We'll find out in time."

"Yes, but am I going to have to relive each night?"

"If that's the way your mind chooses to reveal it, I'm afraid so."

Sophie closed her eyes and clenched her fists. Remus grabbed her hand. "I'll stay every night."

"You can't, you have school." Remus was about to respond when Dumbledore interrupted.

"I'm sure something can be arranged."

Sophie looked at him incredulously. "Are you serious."

"If this is what it takes."

"Th-thankyou Professor."

That night, Sophie was found the same. She was shaking and trembling, her body soaked in sweat, she was still screaming.

Sophie awoke the next morning finding herself collapsed on the floor. A young woman walked in and washed her wounds and changed her into black robes before leaving. Sophie sat on the bed and stared ahead. She sat there for hours, just waiting. For what, she didn't know. She ate one meal that day, dinner. After she finished, a figure walked in once again.

"You look a bit pale princess, did last nights visit leave you in this condition?" Sophie tightened her lips. "Learned your lesson have we?" Sophie still said not a word. Voldermort chuckled. "I'll take your silence as a yes. Tell me about the Potter's." Sophie kept her mouth shut. "Answer me." Nothing. Voldermort walked over and dragged Sophie off the bed by her hair. He pulled her face close to his. "Answer me wench."

"No." She spat.

"No? So you haven't learned your lesson. Fine. Crucio!" He left her screaming for five minutes before he stopped. "Change your mind?" He sounded much like an annoying five-year old.

"No."

"Crucio." Sophie screamed. He laughed.

"Tell me about Dumbledore."

"He works at Hogwarts." She replied.

"I know that." Sophie grinned. Voldermort punched her. She looked back up at him as he replied, "I meant what disillusions does he hold about stopping me?" Sophie grinned and bloody grin and shook her head. "Crucio." She tried to fight it, she failed. "You insignificant traitor, tell me what I want to know."

"NO!"

"Lily Evans is lovely." Sophie stilled. "Struck a chord have I? What about James Potter. Snape and Malfoy would love to watch him shrivel. And Sirius Black...I have a follower very close to him. How about Remus Lupin, now he's a nice catch, but you would know wouldn't you. You've had your eyes on him since you were eleven, and now that he sees you're a woman, he's not running is he? Tell me what I want to know."

Sophie did not reply so quickly this time. He had just threatened her entire existence, he had threatened her friends. She shook her head, No, betraying the good would not save them. "I'll tell you nothing."

"Crucio!" Sophie gasped and cried. Finally he removed the curse. "Tsk Tsk, your Gryffindor courage will get you killed some day." He said before leaving the room. Sophie sat on the floor, blood dripped from her mouth and she wiped it on the sleeve. She looked out the window.

How long would this last?

Sophie's scream became louder, and Remus realized he had to wake he up. He shook her and called to her. Finally her movements stopped. She cried into Remus until finally she once again fell asleep. "No more nightmares, not tonight." Remus told her quietly.

Sophie recalled the account of her nightmare the next day, and the dream of that same day was much like the one of the night before. Full of pain, questions, threats, and curses. The dream of Tuesday was different though.

Sophie woke up the next morning, her robes torn and she could barley move. Her ribs felt broken her face swollen. Her ankle was sprained, she was in agony. The same maiden walked in that day. She looked at Sophie and her eyes misted over.

"Miss. Miss." She called.

"Yes." Sophie whispered.

"There is a way out."

"What?"

"There is a way out of here if you will listen to what I say exactly. Around noon each day Voldermort and his top followers leave the home to meet with some high ranking officials. That leaves the main floo network unattended. I can remove the guards from this hall for thirty minutes at around 12:10. You must leave between that time. No earlier, and no later."

"Won't you"

"Just do it, I'll be fine."

"I don't know what to say."

"Then don't say anything, do we have an agreement?" Sophie nodded. "Good. Remember, 12:10."

The hours passed by slowly, but finally the maiden came in giving her the "go-ahead" signal. "Good luck."

"You too, what's your name?"

"Yolana Greene."

"I won't forget this." The maiden smiled.

"Go." Sophie nodded then hurried from her room. She ran to Voldermort's office and opened the door. She jumped back as she found two Death Eaters conversing.

"Shit." She whispered. Realizing that this was however her only chance, she pushed through the barriers. The Death Eaters threw curses at her immediately. Sophie took some, but threw some right back at them. One clutched his heart in pain, and Sophie finally ended up using muggle tactics and kicked the second one between the legs. She ran to the floo network and called out to the only place she could think of, "Potter Manor."

Remus looked over at Sophie, he was holding onto her hand, yet he noted that she did not scream or tremble. He frowned, maybe she didn't dream tonight. It wasn't that he wanted her to relive her nightmarish ordeal, but he wanted her to live through them quickly. Sophie opened her eyes and looked straight at Remus. He smiled at her, and she tried to return his smile but only ended up crying. Remus held her as she cried. Finally she pulled and she kissed him. She tasted of salt Remus noted. He pulled back and searched her eyes. She shook her head. "No more nightmares." She stated. "No more." Remus nodded.

A/N: Please review, it's 2:41 a.m. I'm tired, and I need something to make me smile.
