Tonk's and Remus' Death
Tonks rushed down the stairs, almost skidding off the end of them as they moved. She was being reckless but had good reason to be. Remus was out there, fighting Antonin Dolohov according to Aberforth. She had to help him, little Teddy was in good hands with his grandmother. It was Remus who needed her now.
She ran down, pushing past students who got in her way, her long violet cloak billowing out behind her as she sprinted. She ran down the grand staircase, her wand held tightly in her hand. She lifted it, seeing the doors to the courtyard closed, she grunted, flicked her wand in the air and thrust it in the direction of the doors, burst them open to show the war.
Different spells of different colours were soaring through the air, death eaters ran, their own wands swishing, aiming killing curses and more at the innocent students. Some fought back bravely; others didn't have a chance as they were thrown the length of the courtyard by the flick of a wand. Tonks hurried forward, hoping to find her husband and father of her boy here somewhere.
Instead she found Bellatrix Lestrange, cackling as she killed student after student without showing even a hint of remorse.
Bellatrix turned, spotted her niece and smiled widely. As did Tonks.
Bellatrix's wand raised high in the air and she let out a high pitched cackle before she slashed it through the air in Tonks's direction. The jet of green light reputed from the tip of Bellatrix's wand and travelled across the air at her. Bellatrix Lestrange was Tonks aunt. But Tonks was nothing like her, or the rest of the Black Family. Only she, her cousin Sirius and her mother Andromeda were the members of the Black Family she cared for. This meant. She was going to kill Bellatrix. Her wand came up, flicking upwards, using the shielding charm known as Protego, though silently. The curse was cancelled.
Bellatrix was confused at first, on how a pathetic witch like Tonks could have deflected her, a powerful witches', spell so easily. Tonks grinned at Bellatrix, angering her. Bella's wand slashed left, and then right, then left again, though each time the flash of green, red or blue, Tonks deflected the spell easily.
Bella let out a high scream, angry this time. "How are you doing that?" she yelled.
Tonks replied with a wave of her own wand, and Bellatrix was hit directly in the chest and was thrown backwards over a giant piece of broken rubble as she did. She turned, and just as she spotted him, Remus Lupin was on the second floor of the main Hogwarts building, a giant whole had been blown out off it. He stood there, looking injured, but still so brave.
"Remus!" she called.
"Tonks look out!" he screamed, she dropped down low, spinning and ducking under a jet of green light cast by Bellatrix. She replied with multiple attacked, Bellatrix was barely able to deflect them. Suddenly Bellatrix stopped, looked up behind Tonks and let out a laugh.
Then Remus screamed.
Tonks spun, ignoring Bellatrix to see Antonin Dolohov stood directly in front of Remus, and there was a flash of green light that tore Tonk's heart into fragments before she watched Lupin's lifeless body, simply topple over the edge of the hole and plummet to the floor. Tonks lifted her wand.
"Arresto Momentum!' she pointed her wand at him; he slowed to a stop before landing softly on a pile of rocks. Tonk's ran to him, and dropped to her knees. Tears blurred her vision. "Remus!" she called, shaking him. "Remus answer me!" he did not.
She cried soundless sobs.
She saw a shadow overhead. Of a woman, with a slim figure, wild busy black hair and the shadow raised a wand.
There was only a flash of green.
