Runaway
Walden walks forward not even realizing that I apparated along with him. He walks up to the back gate of my former house and knocks on the door. Lucius Malfoy, Narcissa's boyfriend, answers and lets Walden in. It isn't going to be as easy to get in as I thought. All of the sudden I hear a screaming from the front parlor; like someone is being tortured. It is a girl and suddenly I realize it is Nymphadora. I feel like screaming myself but that isn't going to get me anywhere. Hearing her scream brings relief to know that she is alive, but pain to know that she is being hurt. I have no doubt now that this is headquarters for the death eaters.
I walk towards the house trying to stay in the shadows. Nymphadora's screaming has stopped but there is shouting in the parlor. A mans icy voice is shouting at someone, but I can't quite make out what he is saying. I run along the back of the house praying no one will see me. I've decided that I will enter through my old room. I had an old makeshift latter when I would sneak out to meet Ted when I was younger. As I reach right below my room I realize it is still there. The manor is only two stories tall so I should be able to climb up to my room.
I begin to scale the wall when I hear people talking in one of the guest rooms on the second floor. As I come closer to my room I realize that it is mum and dad. "Why did Bella bring her here? We have no need for her." mum says. "Bella wants to lead that filth here so she can kill it." he replies sharply. "Quite frankly I wouldn't mind if she did." This doesn't shock me, after I ran off with Ted my parents were shocked and angry. There most decent daughter had run off with a muggle-born, or as they put it mudblood. Bella was always a dissapointment running around sleeping with dozens of men, mum and dad gave up on her quickly. The burden of being a proper lady fell to me quickly. Narcissa now must make mum and dad happy or suffer the consquences.
"With Narcissa wedding coming Cygnus the last thing we need is a piece of filth on our property" mum says quickly. Narcissa's getting marrried to Lucius! This surprises me she is only 19 years old. I continue up the ladder and try to keep my mind off of my crazy family. I climb up onto the balcony of my former room and I walk through the doors into the place I used to call home. As I enter I stop and nearly gasp. The room hasn't been touched since the day I left. The bed is still unmade from the last time I slept in it, and my old schoolbooks are still open on my desk. All of my old robes are in my drawers as well. I walk up to one of the shelves were some old pictures are in frames. I look at the first picture and it is off me and Bella. It was our first day of term and it was my fifth year her seventh. I took that picture to school the two years after she left.
I take the frame and open the back. I carefully pull out the picture and put it in my pocket, for some reason I feel connected to this picture. I hear shouting and I am brought back to why I am here. I walk out into the hallway and past Bella's room. Before I can reach the end of the hallway Narcissa suddenly comes out of her room. She is wearing revealing langerie and I suddenly wonder if she is waiting for Lucius. She turns for the stairs and doesn't notice me until I step on a loose floorboard. She whips around and lets out a bloodcurling scream. "Cissy no" I shout but it is too late. Mum and dad come out of the guest room. "Andromeda" mum says. She bursts into tears but dad isn't so sympathetic. "You get out of my house this instant." he shouts. He looks by me and at Narcissa "Narcissa what is the meaning of this." Cissy starts crying realizing that losing her virtue won't be happening tonight. I start to run to the stairs, but I find somebody else is running up them.
Lucius runs right past me and straight to Narcissa and starts kissing her. "Are you all right honey" he says. "Yes" she mutters wiping her tears. I start down the stairs but now Bella is on her way up. "YOU!" she shouts. She is carrying Nymphadora how shouts "mummy" as soon as she sees me. I back up onto the second floor and more people are heading up the stairs. "Thats it" Bella shouts "I'm ending this now." I have to get out of here, I grab onto my wand. "Mummy's sorry" I yell to Nymphadora. I hear a "Avada-" come out of Bellatrix's mouth and I apparate back to Diagon Alley.
