Chapter Thirty-Nine

Esmerelda fussed with the robes surrounding her and then she wondered why she was sat there fussing in the first place, she was a witch, she could just cast a spell and escape. The blonde therefore started to say a silent spell, so Lily would not see what she was doing but suddenly found herself screaming.

"OWW" Esmerelda said as Lily touched her on the arm, causing a small round burn to her skin, it was the same type of burn as if someone had burned her with a cigarette.

"Aww you not like?" Lily commented and Esmerelda glared at her. She had lost her concentration from the pain but started to think of a spell again, to escape, she had a feeling that burn was only the beginning.

"Now you took some much from me, I need to take something from you equally as bad but what can I take?" Lily said out loud as she paced, smirking as she spoke.

"What is it you want?" Esmerelda asked but her question was not answered as she was left screaming again when Lily shot another curse at her and she felt like she had been winded.

"Hallow you talk to much, do you know that?" Lily said shaking her head as she carried on with her pacing, as if thinking what she should do to Esmerelda, even though Esmerelda had a feeling she had that all planned out already.

"Maybe I should mirror your precious sisters, they might want to speak to you before it is to late" Lily said knowing speaking about the younger Hallows would strike a nerve with Esmerelda.

"LEAVE ETHEL AND SYBIL OUT OF THIS" Esmerelda shouted as she fought with the robes. She tried to concentrate on performing a spell only her fear was making it impossible to perform it. She waited until Lily had turned around in her pacing and then took a chance, doing a quick spell, but Lily turned around like lightening, as if she had been waiting for it.

"Don't make me angry Esmerelda" the girl said as she walked towards the blonde, eyes dark with anger and Esmerelda sighed, she wished Lily would hurry up with whatever she was going to do.

Esmerelda opened her mouth to reply and then all of a sudden felt a spell hit her face and like someone was punching her. Lily was clearly smarter than she looked, she was using magic to beat the girl. Esmerelda cried out but then was unable to make any sound because she tasted something in her mouth and realised she was bleeding.


"I told you not to make me mad, we can play this nicely or we can play this the hard way, you choose Hallow" Lily said as she dropped the spell and Esmerelda coughed, feeling blood run down the side of her mouth where her lip had cut.

"Please leave me alone" Esmerelda sputtered out, trying to talk through a mouth of blood.

"But things are just getting exciting" Lily told the girl with another evil smirk, as Esmerelda felt another spell hit her and something wet on her nose, and she realised now she had a nosebleed as well as the rest.

"You know Hallow, you really shouldn't leave that curse book lying around, you never know when it will get into the wrong hands" Lily told the girl as she stepped over to stand in front of her and smirked.

"It isn't lying around, it is on MY bookshelf in MY bedroom" Esmerelda replied in a stutter because she couldn't talk properly.

"Yes well, our rooms don't have locks on them so it is kind of out in the open, you never know who will be walking past and get curious" Lily said and Esmerelda wanted to slap herself for her stupidity, she should have made sure that book was out of sight because now someone crazy like Lily had gotten a hold of it and could use the spells in there against her.

"Oh dear, you know for someone smart you are quite dumb" the girl said turning away before she shot yet another spell at her unsuspecting victim, Esmerelda felt such a deep pain in her stomach she almost struggled not to start crying, she didn't want to cry in front of Lily and give her the satisfaction but she also knew she would soon if this carried on.

"What is the matter you weakling" Lily said as she kicked the girl in the stomach then without magic. Without magic it was actually much more painful and the girl this time did start to cry at the pain in her stomach at that.

"Please you can have the belt just let me go" Esmerelda cried out, wondering if Lily was going to hold her here until she killed her. Lily looked at the girl as if she was trying to decide whether or not to agree but then laughed, an evil cackle.

"Why would I agree to that? It takes away all the fun of watching you squirm" she told Esmerelda as the young girl started to full on cry now, not knowing how she would get out of this situation, she knew using magic would make things worse but right now she didn't think she had much choice.

"You don't have to do this...you can be a good person...you have being these last few months" Esmerelda told her, trying to make Lily see sense and that this was not the right thing to do, she didn't have to act like this, she had the choice.

"And I hated every second of it, it was so hard to keep up that charade when all I wanted was to seek my revenge" Lily said before she happened to glance her make-up bag in the corner of the room and smirked again.

"You know Esmerelda, you really need to work on how you present yourself, that is not an attractive look" Lily told her friend as she looked at her bloodied face. Esmerelda though was insulted, she always took pride in her appearance because her parents always expected her to look prim and proper, she didn't wear make-up yet but she was still young, there was time for that when the time came, and obviously she looked unattractive right now because she had blood all over her face.

Lily walked over to her desk and grabbed her make-up bag and Esmerelda watched her with a sigh, at least she can't do any damage with that stuff, she thought to herself.


Esmerelda though wished she had being more prepared because she was very wrong. The girl clumsily put mascara on her eyes, and ended up getting the product in her eye, causing Esmerelda started to scream out as her eye burned and then she felt Lily grab her and start forcing the make-up on her face.

"Get off!" Esmerelda complained as she felt the girl writing something on her forehead, She didn't know what she was doing but she could feel it.

"Lily stop it" Esmerelda fussed, trying to get the girl to leave her alone, her eye was hurting and she wondered if she had an infection but Lily didn't stop, she kept going until she stood up and laughed, admiring her handiwork.

"There we go that is better" she said as she looked at the awful make-up she had put on the girl and Esmerelda wondered how awful she actually looked, she knew she would look bad, she looked bad before with her bruises, but she wondered what she had being writing when she grabbed her.

"Beautiful, this will be the next trend" Lily said as she laughed and Esmerelda fought the ropes harder, risking another spell as she was got terrified about how far this will go.

"I SAID NO MAGIC" Lily shouted grabbing the girls arm and turning it so it hurt her, Esmerelda cried at that, her tears leaving marks on her face.

"Lily I am sorry, I am sorry about everything, please just let me go" Esmerelda said, prepared to do anything to stop Lily and feeling so scared.

"To little to late, now to carry out my full plan" the girl said with a smirk and Esmerelda recoiled by the look she was giving her. She had no idea how long this would last but she wished it would just end.
