Chapter 7- Magic can't hurt them…
Ginny came out of the bathroom and heard a bloodcurdling scream. She ran to her room and grabbed her wand and stake along with a few extra weapons and ran downstairs. What she found was her entire family at the mercy of four vampires.
"Don't bother with magic, it can't hurt them," Dawn said from her place behind Ron, who had pulled out his wand. Bill, Charlie, the twins and Mr. Weasley were all bound, their wands out of reach, one vampire guarding them, while another stood by Mrs. Weasley, Ron, Dawn and Harry. Ginny looked around frantically for Hermione and found Damien holding her.
"She's right you know," Damien said coldly. "Besides I'm just going to take who I came for and I'll be gone."
Harry moved to step forward his eyes flashing. "I guess I'll be coming quietly then,"
"You boy? No, although my master would be pleased, but I dare say he's got other plans. No, it's not you I want,"
Harry looked at him confused. He was shoved backward by another vampire and knocked into Mrs. Weasley. His eyes widened as he realized that the youngest female Weasley was not present.
"I don't think your master tells you all of his plans then," Ginny said from the stairway.
"Ginny no!" Harry said, struggling to get free.
"It's okay Harry, I know what I'm doing," she sent a look at Dawn who nodded.
"Don't worry Harry, she can take care of herself, just wait for the signal," Dawn whispered.
"I told you next time we saw each other Damien I'd kill you. I'm not backing out of my promise." She looked at Hermione and saw unmistakable fear in her eyes. Damien licked Hermione's neck and took a deep breath.
"I can smell the fear," he said.
"Let her go Damien, this is between you and me."
"Ginny what are you doing? Are you crazy?" Ron cried from his spot.
"Hush Ronnie, I know what I'm doing." she said, eyes flashing. "I said let her go Damien."
"Fine slayer," Hermione's eyes widened as she recognized the title. Damien pushed Hermione to the floor and motioned for one of his lackeys to pick her up.
Damien and Ginny circled for a few seconds, until he lunged at Ginny. She met him head on and began kicking with all her force. Her family watched astonished as the two fought. Damien caught her startled, lifted her up and threw her against the wall. Ginny was immobile for a few seconds as the wind was knocked out of her. He kicked her in the face, and picked her up by her neck. The others were raging now and were doing their best to try and escape, but were failing horribly, they watched as Ginny struggled to gain the upperhand. Finally she kicked him in the stomach, causing him to lose his concentration. She stood up again and punched him a few times, and he tackled her to the ground. Ginny's arms were pinned beneath her as he straddled her.
"Well this position seems oddly familiar," he drawled as he looked at her. Harry struggled if possible even more, but was tied to the spot. He took one glance at Ron who was purple in the face, and realized he was not the only one that caught on to the comment made by Damien.
Damien lowered his face to her neck and sunk his teeth in.. Ginny mustered her strength and forced him to roll over, causing her to be on top of him. She put the stake to his neck and said
"So does this one. Dawn NOW!" she screamed and threw her a spare stake. Dawn caught it and within minutes lackey number one was dust. Ginny was holding her own against Damien, who had thrown her off him, and Dawn was struggling against the other vampire, while trying to free the boys. Ginny turned from her battle with Damien to see Dawn up in the air, her feet dangling four feet from the ground.
Harry ran to help Ginny but she took another look at Dawn. "No Harry! Help Dawn, I'm fine!"
Dawn was beginning to turn blue, and starting to panic. Harry and Ron went to help her, knocking down the vampire and helping Dawn who was gasping for breath.
In the process of making sure Dawn was getting taken care of, Ginny lost her focus and was once again thrown against the wall. "This is getting extremely old," she said getting up. She was sure she had broken a rib and dislocated her shoulder this time, as well as lost a lot of blood from the neck wound but continued to fight.
"Harry I need something pointy! NOW!" Ginny shrieked as she dodged another blow.
Harry frantically looked around and threw her the stake that Dawn had thrown on the ground. Mrs. Weasley was sobbing while Mr. Weasley was comforting her in the corner. Ron and Hermione were helping revive Dawn, and Bill, Charlie and the twins were watching horrified, unable to move, restrained by the last remaining vampire as they watched their little sister fight. Ginny tackled Damien to the ground and finally plunged the stake into his heart, causing him to turn to dust. She turned to the last vampire, blood dripping off her, and caught fear in his eyes. He turned and ran out the back door, too afraid to face Ginny.
"Shit he got away. Is everyone okay?" Ginny asked looking around. When she saw everyone was accounted for, and alive, she promptly passed out.
