Authors Note: Thank you reviewers for correcting me, I got a little caught up in the story and forgot that the Imperious Curse was the one that controlled people not the Crucious. So I reloaded and corrected that chapter. Thanx!

Chapter 23: Clashing

Charlie, Ron, Fred and Hermione all stepped on front of Harry. Mr. Weasley had apparated which was not much help to anyone, and Mrs. Weasley was hiding behind her sofa. Ginny came running downstairs with her wand in her hands, she fired first.

"STUPEFY!" yelled Ginny, the spell was heading toward Malfoy.

"PROTEGO!" shouted Malfoy, the spell bounced off him and hit the sofa Mrs. Weasley was hiding behind.

"AHH!" screamed Mrs. Weasley, "Nobody attacks my furniture without some consequences!" Molly had now joined the fight.

"AVADRA KEDAV--!" screamed Malfoy, but he was cut off by 3 young wizards spells. Hermione, Ron, and Ginny had all sent stupefy spells at Draco. Malfoy was knocked off his feet and staring stupidly at the ceiling.

"One down two to go," smirked Hermione, but she could tell none of the Weasley's wanted to attack each other.

"Crucio!" shouted George coldly, the curse hit Ginny square in the chest. She was shaking and screaming violently.

"GINNY!" yelled Harry and ran toward the screaming red haired girl.

"Harry! Watch out!" yelled Hermione. A killing curse was coming right for Harry but never had a chance to hit him.

"Protego!" yelled a strong voice in front of Harry, Lupin was standing above him with his wand raised. The curse knocked Lupin off his feet but the Shield Charm took the worst out of it.

Harry turned around see more members of the Order of the Phoenix, Tonks and Mad-Eye Moody were also there along with Mr. Weasley.

"Petrificus Totalus!" yelled Moody with his raspy voice. George froze on the spot.

"CRUCIO!" screamed Bill, but the spell missed Harry and hit the wall causing the house to shake.

"STUPEFY!" yelled Tonks, the spell hit Bill in the head and knocked him unconscious.

They had beat the three wizards but Ginny was still lying shaking and screaming on the floor.

"DO SOMETHING!" yelled Harry extremely angry at himself for letting this happen to her.

"Calm down Harry," replied Lupin calmly, "Finite." Ginny stopped screaming and slowly relinquished from shaking but was still in some sort of trance.

"She'll need to spend a couple of days in St. Mungo's but she'll be back to normal in no time," said Lupin smiling. He proceeded to Bill and George and lifted their curses.

"I'll take the three Weasley's to St. Mungo's," stated Tonks speaking to Mr. Weasley, "But Reamus and Mad-Eye will be searching the forest near your house for you know who."

"Non sense Tonks I'm going with you," replied Molly, "I'm not taking my eyes off any of my children anymore."

"What about Malfoy?" asked Hermione, "what are we gonna do with him?"

"I'll be taking him to the Ministry of Magic and he'll have a date with Azkaban most likely." Replied Mr. Weasley.

Reamus and Mad-Eye went to search the forest for Voldemort. Tonks and Mrs. Weasley went to St. Mungo's. Mr. Weasley took the limp frozen body of Draco and left for the Ministry. Then Harry, Ron, Charlie, Fred, and Hermione all went upstairs. Their hearts and minds racing after fight with there possessed friends and Draco.

"Blimey!" said Ron, "the Hogwarts express is coming tomorrow!"
