Chapter 27: Sarah's Death
Sarah Lupin sat in a large chair in the room Remus and her shared. Remus was busy with Order business with Dumbeldore. Sarah didn't mind. She liked the few moments when she could think.
A copy of the Daily Prophet lay close by on the floor. The headline blared: Seven killed in Deatheater Attack!
The headline chilled Sarah to the bone. Her experience with Deatheaters was not a happy one…
Sarah crept silently through the dark alley ways just outside the Ministry of Magic. Her heart hammeredin her throat. Blood pounded in her ears, deafening her.
Remus had told her not to go. Sarah had to though. She wanted to get the Deatheaters and get them good. She knew that 5 of Voldemorts most trusted followers would be in the Minsitry tonight. They were looking for the prophecy. Foolish, because Dumbeldore had stolen it.
Sarah wanted to kill the Deatheaters. Hurt them in the way they hurt her. Kill her friends. Her best friends. Her blood boiled as she heard their voices. She saw 4 of them standing around the telephone booth talking. Suddenly a hand shot out and seized her around the throat. Lucius Malfoy was the owner of the hand. Sarah felt anger well up inside of her when she saw him smile. Smile like he did the day he tried to kill Remus. The day she threatened to rip out his innards.
Sarah flung herself off Lucius. She yelled
"Avada Kedvra!" There was a blinding flash of green. Sarah's eyes quickly adjusted and she saw a young muggle girl no older than 17 fall to the ground. Sarah's eyes widened and Lucius laughed.
"Well done Sarah. I knew there was evil in you some where."
This threw Sarah into a blinding rage. She drew her wand again and said the words. Lucius quickly dodged the spell and this time a middle aged mad that was walking his dog hit the ground.
Sarah could feel her vision being blurred by tears. She could faintly make out Lucius and the others being taken into the Ministry. Gathering her wand she chased after them. Sarah ran down the hall way of the Ministry. Her lungs and feet felt like they were on fire. She'd killed someone. Not just one person but two.
Sarah could make out their voices again. Instead of planning out a smart attack she threw herself into the room with the many prophecies lining the walls. She raised her wand and yelled the fatal words once again. This time she hit a Deatheater and their body crumpled to the ground. The hood fell back and the other Deatheaters gasped. Sarah looked down at their face. It was Fredrick Grime. Voldemort's most trusted Deatheater.
"Wench." Lucius spat and raised his own wand. Just as he was about to utter the words as Sarah stood their frozen a blast of white knocked Lucius to the ground. Sarah and the remaining Deatheaters turned and Sarah's heart leaped with joy. Standing in the door way was Remus with a murderous look on his face. Following quickly behind him was Faith with her wand pointed at the three remaining Deatheaters. Remus had his eyes concentrated on Lucius.
"Stand up!" Remus roared. Lucius gave a cold look and carefully stood up and did something that no one even realized till it was done. As Lucius stood up he produced a wand out of his sleeve. He pointed it at Sarah. Remus turned just in time to see Sarah crumple to the ground. Then the 4 Deatheaters all apparated.
Remus rushed over to Sarah's side. He picked her up and looked at her cheeks which had quickly lost their color. Her skin was cold and Faith made odd noises behind him. A noise startled Faith and she looked towards the door. Fudge had arrived. Faith gave a desperate tug on Remus's arm saying that they had to leave.
Sarah could hear all this very faintly. She could make out a very hazy image of Remus and Faith dragging Remus away so she could apperate with him. Sarah made an odd moaning noise and rolled over on her side. She raised her wand and apparated into a dark place. She then remembered blackness.
Sarah snapped out of her memory as Remus entered the room. Sarah watched as He walked over and stared out the window. Sarah noticed the small glitter of the crescent moon and thought about bringing a child into a world filled with fear. A world filled with Voldemort. Her heart wanted to cry when she thought about it. She didn't get long to think about it though. Because suddenly Remus began to make an odd sort of pained noise.
In her own room Faith sat in front of the fireplace. Sirius's head reflected in its light.
"Hows school going?" He asked. Faith opened her mouth to answer but never got a chance because at that moment there was a high pitched scream. From the room across the hall. From Remus and Sarah's room.
(A/N: Yes, I know that Remus and Sarah's room is not across the hall from Faith's but Remus and Sarah got moved into the room across from Faith's because it was bigger.)
(A/N: What is the best odd couple? Ex: Severus/ Faith, Sarah/James etc.)
