Chapter 7-The Night Before
The next week flew by in no time at all, it seemed. It was the night before the full moon and Evelyn and Remus were both really nervous. They kept running into each other, and would both blush furiously when that happened.
As if that wasn't enough, Mrs.Weasley had thrown them a party three days ago. Everyone in the Order was invited. Saying they had been surprised to see Snape show up would have been an understatement, (especially because the purple hair incident. When they had asked him about it he claimed he only came because he needed to speak with Dumbledore and knew he would be there.
As soon as Snape went off to the punch table they had started laughing at his hair and at the fact that Evelyn and Remus had spiked the punch, being the Marauders that they are, and a bright purple donkey had stood in the place of Severus Snape.
But that wasn't all that had happened to Snape. He turned back into himself with a small 'pop'. He looked around the room and his insane-looking glare landed on the innocent-looking faces of Evelyn and Remus.
Snape, thinking he might be safe with a small pastry from one of the other tables, picked a good looking one off the plate and ate it.
Two words: BAD IDEA!!!
Fred and George, of course with the permission of Evelyn and Remus, (they had asked permission because they idolized Evelyn for what she did to Snape's hair), had accidentally mixed a few Canary Creams in with the other goods on the table and there was a small 'pop'.
A few seconds later a bright purple canary was chasing Evelyn and Remus through the house, until, that is, there was another small 'pop' and a shocked-looking Snape fell seven feet to the ground and landed on his bum with a 'thud'.
Evelyn and Remus were so caught up in their laughter that they almost didn't see Snape get up and persue them on foot. Almost. Evelyn and Remus had taken off running like there was no tomorrow, perued by a very livid looking Snape.
It had been a short-lived glory, but it had been worth it. For a grumpy, old, Potions Master, Snape sure could Run, Evelyn had pointed out. This had resulted in Evelyn and Remus holding onto each other for support so they wouldn't fall to the floor laughing.
Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Fred, and George, who had also been allowed to go to the party, had witnessed the whole thing and had been laughing hysterically.
Unfortunately for Harry, Ron, Hermione, they had to return to Hogwarts for their sixth year, and Ginny for her fifth. Remus and Evelyn had been a part of Harry's escort to Platform 9 ¾, along with Moody, Mr.Weasley, and Tonks.
Harry had gotten there safely and had boarded the train with Ron, Hermione, and Ginny.
There had been only one minor setback, when Evelyn got into a duel with Lucius Malfoy and refused to leave until she hexed Malfoy into oblivion. This had caused Remus to pick her up, throw her over his shoulder, and carry her away from Malfoy before she got sent to Azkaban for murder.
Remus had to resort to apparating together with Evelyn back to Grimmauld Place, with Evelyn held tightly around the middle, (without her wand so she couldn't hex anyone), because whenever Remus would loosen his hold on her, she would make her way to a sneering, taunting, Lucius Malfoy.
Although Malfoy was sneering, you could still see the panic in his usually cold grey eyes when Evelyn would get close enough to actually inflict damage with her bare hands.
At that time the train had not yet left and most students, meaning everyone except the Slytherins, were hanging out of doors and windows cheering Evelyn on until the train started to move, but you could still hear the cheers even after the train had rounded the corner.
-------------------------------
Now Evelyn sat in the kitchen enduring what seemed to be her twentieth lecture about exposing the Order and whatnot from a very disgruntled Mad-eye Moody. That is, until Mrs.Weasley whipped out her world famous apple pie.
Everyone shut up the moment they smelled it and some people, including Remus, had started drooling right there on the spot, with there eyes glazed over and dreamy expressions on their faces.
All nervousness Remus and Evelyn had been feeling about the next night melted away instantly as they sunk their teeth into Mrs.Weasley apple pie.
Everyone's worries seemed to be gone, until a panting Snape ran into the kitchen looking even paler than he already was. His hair contrasting badly with his paleness.
"D-Death Eaters! A-Attack! Muggle town! NOW!!!" Snape panted. Snape looked like he'd been running a lot, which if what he said was true, he most likely had been running.
"What town, Snape?" asked Moody setting down his fork and walking closer to Snape.
"Manchester," was all he said before disapparating on the spot.
"Well, you heard the man! What are you waiting for?" said Moody turning to the rest of the people in the kitchen.
Evelyn and Remus didn't need telling twice and also disapparated, followed by everyone in the kitchen. All of who happen to be Order members as well, in hopes of saving the Muggles and subdue the Death Eaters.
When Evelyn and Remus appeared in Manchester they were shocked beyond belief at what they saw.
Hundreds upon hundreds of Death Eaters. Maybe even thousands. From the looks of it the Light was losing quickly. They were no match for that many Death Eaters. That's when reinforcements showed up.
Aurors, Ministry Hit Wizards, Order Members, and lots of them. From what Evelyn could see everyone from the Order were dueling with Death Eaters.
Evelyn and Remus went to their aid and started stunning every Death Eater they could reach while dodging various spells and curses, which included the unforgivable curses.
Tonks was dueling with Avery, while Remus was dueling with Bellatrix Lestrange, and Evelyn with Lucius Malfoy, and from the looks of it, Evelyn was getting her revenge from the day at Platform 9 ¾.
Malfoy looked absolutely terrified, seeing as he was cornered by Evelyn. He was looking around everywhere for help, since Evelyn had disarmed him.
"Oh…oh my…what's this…oh…Malfoy doesn't have his wand…oh what a shame!" Evelyn taunted smirking at Malfoy.
"Shut up Variati!" said a familiar cold drawl walking up behind Malfoy. Evelyn smirked and turned to the shorter person and disarmed him also.
"Oh…and what's this…Mini Malfoy come to his old man's rescue…that's laughable!" Evelyn taunted once again.
"Hey! I'm not that old…am I…?" Malfoy senior asked uncertainly. Evelyn rolled her eyes and stunned both Malfoy senior and junior.
"Remus? REMUS!?!? Where are you?" Evelyn yelled after magically binding the Malfoys and getting two aurors to apparate with them to Azkaban.
"I'm over here!" Remus yelled back from somewhere behind Evelyn. Evelyn turned around and spotted Remus, who had managed to stunned Bellatrix and also spotted Avery lying stunned at Tonks' feet.
Several hours later, the Light was slowly, but surely gaining on the Dark. Bodies lay scattered everywhere. Some stunned, some dead.
"Remus? What time was it when we left?" Evelyn asked ducking a killing curse and stunning the Death Eater that shot it at her.
"It was around eleven pm!" Remus answered stunning another Death Eater and turning to look at her curiously.
Evelyn looked at her watch and then up at the sky. Remus looked at her still curious as to her actions.
"Remus!," Evelyn walked up to Remus eyes wide. "Remus, tonight's the full moon! It's already five in the morning! These Death Eaters aren't giving way; we have to get back to Headquarters on time," Evelyn whispered urgently.
"We will Evelyn," Remus said reassuringly, stunning a Death Eater behind her. Evelyn stunned another one to the side.
"We have to find Dumbledore and tell him," Evelyn said grabbing Remus' arm and pulling him down together with her just as about three killing curses flew above their heads.
"Thanks for that," Remus said going a little pale.
"Don't mention it," said Evelyn, "but never mind that; we have to find Dumbledore…" she trailed off
"Remus, you're really pail…oh yea…the full moon," said Evelyn looking at Remus with concern.
"We have to get you out of here," said Evelyn getting up. She extended her hand to Remus. He took her and let her help him up.
"No! We have too find Dumbledore," said Remus determinedly, "besides, I actually feel just fine…usually it's twenty times worse…"
Evelyn grabbed Remus' hand and Ducked behind a car on the street they were on. She looked him over for a minute.
"Are you sure you're ok?" Evelyn asked looking concerned.
"I'm sure, don't worry. Now lets go find Dumbledore," Remus said smiling and stunning another Death Eater.
"I can't help, but worry about you sometimes," Evelyn said jokingly, shaking her head and smiling.
Evelyn and Remus made a run for it from behind the car and stunned all Death Eaters that got in their way.
