Bellatrix winced as Sirius palm connected with her face. She had made him mad and now she would pay. He hit her again, only this time it wasn't his palm, it was his fist. He hit her two more time before finally she crumpled to the ground.

Bellatrix tried her hardest to keep the tears from falling, but they fell anyways. As she lied there wishing the abuse would stop, she remembered her wand was in her boot. She drew her knees up as if she was trying to get in the fetal position, slid her hand into the top of her boot and quickly withdrew her wand yelling, "Stupefy!"

Sirius fell to the ground stunned. "Don't you ever hit me again!" She said and sent a big kick with the tip of her boot right into his ribs.
