Author's Note: My beloved readers. . . please forgive me for taking so long. I'm such an idiot, I accidentally deleted the original chapter. I had to write it all over again. Thanks to the reviewers I will try to update faster on the next few chapters. Love y'all. :)

Chapter 5: Betrayal

Traitor

You were my colleague, my friend

For you, my knees I bend

To you I gave my trust

But you threw me to the dust

I would have gladly died for you

Coz in my heart I knew

You were my friend, my supporter

Now not a friend I see, but a traitor

"Surprised, are you? Now hand over your wand!"

He called out. Her expression was clearly entertainment for the death eater. Malevolently he outstretched his hand impatiently waiting for Cho.

Hesitating, she didn't have a choice. Her hands reached for her wand and the same hand threw her only chance of escaping. She frantically looked around. She was going dizzy, confused by the surprising apocalypse.

"Hi there"

Cho looked up to the owner of the voice. He was quite good looking and she couldn't help but flash him a smile. "Hi"

He smiled back clearly nervous. "I'm new. Just graduated from training and this is my first day as an official auror."

He looked around the room, observing the room. "I can't believe how beautiful this room is."

Cho laughed as she inspected the room with him. True enough, the room was beautiful, oddly beautiful. There on the walls hung the portraits of the previous head Aurors. The walls glowed an eerie but lovely blue. And in the center was a huge wooden antique table. The union of aurors seal visible swiveling in the middle of the room.

"Yeah it is really lovely, strangely beautiful."

She smiled to him. "By the way, the name's Cho Chang."

He smiled back. " I'm….."

"Order. Is everyone here?"

Charlie looked around. All seats were filled. Ron's flaming hair and Hermione's bushy head clear from afar. Neville was talking to the Dutch representatives, lately he has become popular among foreign aurors.

The death eater smiled as wielded the wand to establish that he is now charge. His eye-catching ring glimmered as he caught the wand in mid-air and placed it inside his pocket. He kept glancing over his shoulders, preparing for any attack that may come from behind.

Cho still couldn't get over the horrible revelation that was before her. How could he do this? Why? Her curiosity got the best of her.

"Why are you doing this?"

Smirking, the death eater pulled back his hood. Cho could now clearly see his face. His blonde hair swayed with the wind, framing his face. His eyes weren't anymore warm. It was cold and malicious.

"Doing what?" mocking an innocent look. "This?"

He waved his wand.

"Crucio"

The death eater laughed wickedly at the sight of a pained and helpless Cho. He stopped the spell and gave Cho a breath of air. As a clever Ravenclaw she knew very well what an unforgivable curse was supposed to feel like. It's worse than I expected. It was the most horrible thing she ever felt in her whole life. Determined to get an answer she asked again.

"You hooded monster! Why are you doing this? I trusted you."

"You trusted me because you were a fool, Chang A FOOL. I was tasked to spy on the Union of Aurors and I gladly accepted it. I was honored to be given such an important task by the most powerful sorcerer in the world. When I completed my task I was about to escape before anyone knew I bore the dark mark. But when that poor excuse of an Auror said something about an INNER CIRCLE death eater aiding the light side, I was furious and I knew I just had to find out who he was and punish him for betraying the dark lord."

"So some death eater actually found his senses and stayed away from people like you."

Cho screamed out. She was starting to lose her balance. The pain had affected her and she was quite weak. Nevertheless, she didn't show her pain. She remained strong. She wasn't about to give a death eater the pleasure of seeing her suffer. No Way.

"Senses. Ha! Do you actually believe that the light side would prevail over evil?"

Cho glared at his mocking comment. Looking very fierce, she tried her best to remain standing. It didn't help that she started to get dizzy. Her whole body ached in pain screaming for a chance to heal. Idiot! Just wait till I get my hands on my wand. You'll be sorry. 

"Well?"

She continued to glare at him with piercing eyes, ignoring his question. If looks could kill, there would be one less death eater in this world!

"Come on answer me!"

"Yes, I strongly believe that we can easily take care of creeps such as yourself!"

Pete laughed devilishly. But he stood his ground, not giving Cho a single chance of escaping.

"Cho Chang, witty as always."

He smirked, clearly amused. Then in the middle of the sky something green shot out. It formed a horrid skull, equipped with a serpent. Both Cho and Pete looked up at it, different reactions shown on their faces. Pete smirked even more as Cho looked up horrified. Her heart was racing, all that was in her mind was I need to escape now!

"Oh look at the time. Funny how time flies when you're having fun."

Grinning cruelly, Pete stepped closer still pointing his wand at her. He pointed out the dark mark at Cho.

"Looks like we have to cut this little soiree short."

Taking a step back, Cho had never felt so frightened in her life. The pain had affected her walking; she now walked like a zombie from the grave. With every step that she took, her hope slowly faded away. Help!

Pete took a final step and raised his wand.

"AVADA KEDAVRA"
