Thanks to Imketys for reviewing! It means a lot that you are looking for me to continue this.

Like I said last chapter, this is my first fanfiction published, EVER. So feedback is welcome. This chapter is REALLY short, but it has been a while and I really wanted to publish something, hopefully I will write more soon...

I own nothing in the Harry Potter universe. Just Capella.

This is un-betaed so mistakes are my own. Enjoy!

CHAPTER TWO

~o0o~

As my parents were stuck in their shock, I tried making a run for it, but I had to pass my father on my way out. As I passed him, he broke out of his shock and grabbed me by the waist, easily picking me up and preventing me from going any further. I pulled at his hands, trying to get out, while screaming bloody murder hoping that the aurors would hear.

My father's grip got tighter, "Oh no you bitch, you ain't getting us caught today, we still have too much to do for the Dark Lord."

My struggling doubled when I saw my mother leave the tent, her wand held high, one of the unforgivables on her lips. As the flap shut, I dropped to the floor after getting in a lucky kick to my father's groin.

I dashed out and ran away as fast as I could, followed closely by the bastard who was out for my blood. Before he could locate me however, a stray stunner from an auror hit him, which gave me a chance to view the chaos that was around me and catch my breath.

At the back of the group I saw Mrs. Finnigan, who was scanning the clearing, looking for something. Or someone, which was proven to be the case as she surged forward when we made eye contact. She began skirting around the edge of the fighting, as I began rushing that way.

I got to Seamus's mum who I had only really met twice and buried myself in her arms that were held out. For an eleven year old, I was very lacking in physical displays of love, or any display of love for that matter. But when her arms went around me and she started running her hands through my hair I felt right at home. Before long I let out a sob that shook my whole body and lost all of my composure. I buried my face into her embrace and let my tears run free, something I had not been able to do since I could understand what my biological parents were saying.

I heard a shriek that came from over my shoulder that most definitely came from my mother. I chanced a glance and saw that she had been hit by a curse on her wand arm, which was now bleeding freely. Many of the aurors seemed to ease up, thinking that she would go down easy after that, but if anything, she just got more vicious.

Eventually, one of the older aurors got lucky and got a stunner in and knocked my mother out before the situation became even more devastating. I looked on as they tied up my parents and apparated them away.

When all but one of the aurors had left, Mrs. Finnegan pulled out of the embrace and guided me over to the man. He was a tough looking, missing part of his nose, in addition to his wooden leg (which was hidden, but still made a clunking noise on the forest floor when he walked) and his electric blue fake eye (which was darting from side to side separate from his normal, darker eye). I could tell by the way he was standing and looking around that he was always suspicious of his surroundings and that he was a seasoned auror.

He gruffly asked Mrs. Finnegan, "This is her? The Lestrange girl?" while nodding in my direction.

"Yes. But please, keep the questioning to a minimum Alastor. Please. She's been through a lot recently." He nodded, then looked down his nose at me.

He asked me several different question, mostly about what my parents had been doing the past decade, and how I came into play. Eventually, he left, saying that that was all he had to ask me. He gave me a small, almost grim looking smile before turning to Mrs. Finnegan. "Well Moira, looks like I'm done here. Keep a watchful eye on this one? There will be plenty death eaters out looking for her if they were to find out she was responsible for her parents being brought it."

"I sincerely doubt that Alastor, she's only a child. But I will kept an eye in her just the same." At this, she looked down at me, giving me a soft smile.

"You never know. CONSTANT VIGILANCE!" With this exclamation, the Auror turned and began thunking through the clearing, before stopping next to a pink haired woman for a quick exchange. Then, they both turned on their heels and vanished with a pop.
