Chapter Eight; Fight!

The lynx repeated his words two times before it disappeared.

"Holy crap." Was the first thing that Tonks said when the patronus disappeared, but at the same moment everything started to go so slow, both Alicia and Tonks drew their wands, and started to look around.

"It's so typical that that happens just tonight." Tonks said.

"Yeah." Alicia answered, silently cursing over herself for joking about it to Percy.

Lupin ran up toward them, the guest was disapparating and all running into different directions. "You okay?" He asked Tonks when he arrived.

"Yeah." Tonks said and the two of them ran away to fight of the Death Eaters.

But Alicia couldn't do so much, when she also had run away toward the arriving Death Eaters. But just as she had lifted her wand, somebody grabbed her from behind and apparated away from the scene.


When their feet touched the ground again, she was so angry at the person behind her, so she stomped on his foot and hit him in the stomach with her elbow. He let go of her and she could see who it was.

"Oh, you got to be kidding me." She said, of all Death Eaters that could have brought her here, Rabastan Lestrange was the one who had taken on the job, the same man that her dad had put in prison for the torture of the Longbottoms.

The place that he had brought her to was an old rugged house out in nowhere. "No kidding." He answered in his raspy voice.

"Why did you take me here?" She asked, trying to win some time.

"To kill you, you idiot." He snapped, thinking that she was stupid.

"Why couldn't you have your sister in-law to do it?" She asked, trying to stalk him of time.

"Why does it matter to you?"

"Well, I just think that it's sad about you, who are about to get your ass kicked by a woman." She said. "IMPEDIMENTA!" she yelled and pointed her wand toward him.

But he was too quick so he dodged the spell, but instead he shot a curse at her. But she ran out of the room, and up the stairs. When she reached the top floor she ran into the first room she could find with a door, she ran into the room and closed the door, while she was inside she tried to apparate, but couldn't.

After cursing over the fact that she couldn't apparate out of the house, she ran over to the window, first she tried to open it, but it wouldn't. Scared about the situation she tried to listen to figure out where he was.

She cracked the door open and heard that he was coming up the stairs, when he was almost right at the door she swung it open and grabbed his wrist, where he had his wand, and kicked him in the stomach and drew the wand out of his hand as he doubled over in pain.

But he recovered from the pain quicker than she had expected, so he tried to take back his wand and when he got a hold of her hand he twisted it toward her and threw a blasting jinks at her, like the one that she had used on Percy only a few days ago, but a far bigger and powerful one.

When she landed on her back at the end of the hall, her wand flew out of her hand and down one of the holes in on the floor.

"Shit." She cursed and looked up at Rabastan that now stood fully up.

He smiled evilly and approached her. "CRUCIO." He hissed in his raspy voice, but Alicia rolled over so that the curse didn't hit her, but the floor instead. She didn't want to experience the Cruciatus curse, thank you.

After that he threw another curse at her, but hit her feet. She cried out in pain and looked at her feet, which didn't have any visible damages. She crawled the fastest she could and when she turned right at the hall she could stand up so that she ran, but her feet hurt so much. Rabastan that still followed her tried once again to throw the Cruciatus curse at her, but missed once again.

She continued down the second stairs but stumbled so she fell onto her stomach on the floor. All of her body hurt after she had been blasted across the hall and the fear she felt was just making everything worse. She had lost her wand, how could she have lost her wand? She knew that you could call for your wand just like you could call for your broom, but you had to have eye sight of you wand.

She crawled round the bench in the middle of the room and hid behind it, she looked around in the room, she had reached the kitchen. She took off her expensive shoes and looked around the corner of the bench and saw that he still hadn't come down the stairs. She stood up by the counter and looked through some draws to see if there was something sharp left, like knifes.

She found three knifes. She stood up and turned around toward Rabastan that now had come down, she took the first knife and threw it at him, but he used his wand and slowed it down so that he could take it in his hand. Having no idea how to turn this fight to her own profit, she ducked down by the bench and freaked out a little, what was she going to do? But her mind seemed to have shut down, because before she knew it had Rabastan appeared by the bench and leaned down to grab her.

He grabbed her by the throat held her over her feet; he was much bigger and stronger than she was. She felt the hardness to breath, and that kinda made it harder for her to do anything at all. She tried to kick him with her feet, but since she was now barefoot, it didn't hurt him at all, it only gave her extra pain. In his hand he held a knife, but not the same knife that she had thrown at him earlier. She got a shrill of terror through her body at the mere thought of what he might find suitable to do with it.

"Poison." He said and held the knife in front of her face. "The more you fight it, the quicker it will work, so, pretty." He said, and Alicia could see every inch of his ugly face close to her. "No matter how much you fight me... You'll still be dead in the morning." He almost whispered the last part and then he made a shallow, but still deep enough cut over her stomach.

The pain that came with the poison in the wound was almost unbearable; it felt like fire, like somebody had poured alcohol straight into the wound. But Alicia wouldn't allow herself to show any pain, so she just gritted her teeth and stared at him.

He turned around, still holding Alicia by the throat and threw her through the room so that she hit the wall and then fell damp onto the ground. This time she cried slightly out the pain, she felt the urge to giving up, she had nothing to fight for. She had absolutely nothing left.

George didn't care what happened to her, her sister wished that she could just disappear so that she didn't have to take care of her baby sister. He dad was missing, dead probably. She wished that somebody or something could give her any sign that she wasn't meant to die like this. That there still was somebody that cared for her, that she was supposed to live, not die at the hands of a Death Eater at the age of 19.

She looked around for something to defend herself with, she looked around, and suddenly she saw it, she saw her wand lie in the other room, the other room that was directly underneath the upper hall, where she had lost her wand.

"Here." She said desperately and held her hand out toward her wand. "Here." She said more demanding. She looked up at him again; he was smiling ugly and just looked at her.

"Say goodbye." He said and raised his wand.

She looked with him with tears in her eyes. She knew that this was the end. She knew that this was her very last moment. But a stubborn voice in her head woke up and yelled at her that this is not the way she was going to die, that she just wasn't going to die like this. It told her to just call for her wand once more, that it will work this time that it had to work.

But Alicia couldn't move, she felt completely paralyzed in her body. The tears was burning down her cheeks, she took one last deep breath and look over at her wand. "Here." She whispered and to her surprise it moved. "Here." She whispered again.

"AVADA KEDA...!" Rabastan started to say but was interrupted by Alicia who had not got a hold of her wand and cast another curse at him.

"SECTUMSEMPRA!" She called out with all the strength she has left in her body and pointed her wand at direct at him. "SECTUMSEMPRA!" she called out once again, blood splashing out at the making of the cuts.

He stopped in the mid sentence and got a shocked expression on his face, His breath are getting shorter as the blood come flowing out of the two wounds across his chest. He fell down on his knees and then down onto the floor, the blood still flowing onto the floor, forming a pool of deep red blood.

She couldn't believe that she had just used that curse, that she had killed somebody with dark magic. She had used the dark curse that had departed George from his beloved ear, to kill somebody. But then she remembered what kind of man that Rabastan Lestrange was and realized that she shouldn't think of him as a man, she should think of him as a monster, a monster that had been a part of torturing two people to insanity, then braking out of Prison and probably killed more people that she could count over his years as a Death Eater.

She stood up from where she lay and looked over at the dead body of Rabastan Lestrange. She limped over to him, took his wand, which was laying a feet away from him and broke it into two pieces. She took her time to look at him; the blood from his two mortal wounds was still running over the floor.

She put her hand over the shallow, but poisonous wound over her stomach; it stung, but now as much as before. She took a deep breath; she knew that she needed medical care quickly if she wanted to survive. She took her eyes of him and walked down the hall to the main door, but not so surprisingly; it was locked.

She walked back to him and searched his pockets from the keys and found them. She knew that the magic protection ward around the house had to have a key; it was the easiest way to make sure that she possibly couldn't get out.

She unlocked the door and felt the cold and refreshing night air as she opened the door. She took several deep breaths and quietly wondered what to do. Where should she go? She was definitely too weak to walk somewhere by foot, besides, by the look of it, it must be over a mile to the nearest house, even further to the nearest village.

But she started to form a plan in her head, she had to show somebody that their plan to kill her had failed, and the place that she definitely knew that Death Eaters were was the Burrow and the Ministry, but it was probably too dangerous to go to the Ministry, so she had to settle for the Burrow.

She walked back into the house to Rabastan, and by using her wand she levitated him up and out of the house through the door. When both she and him was outside and slowly lowered him and put his dead and bloody arm around her shoulder, when she knew that she could support him and felt confident enough to apparate; she apparated to the burrow, setting to land as close to the door as possible, since the anti-apparition ward was down.


When her bare feel landed on solid ground again, she saw the closed back door of the Burrow right in front of her face, she just took a few steps back and used her wand to blast the door open.

When the door opened she could clearly see that the most of the Weasley family and some others were sitting silently around the table, guarded by two male Death Eaters. All of their looks turned toward Alicia, she practically threw Rabastan onto the floor, right at the feet of the closest Death Eater.

"Yes." She said with a raspy voice to answer all of their questioning looks. "Rabastan Lestrange is dead. I killed him. To difference from my father and others, I don't mind killing Death Eaters." She said, using all of strength she had left to stand upright. She grasped her wand tighter and lifted it toward the death eaters. "Is it just the two of you, or are there more?" She asked.

"No, just us that's left here." The closest one said with streaks of fear in his voice.

"Take his body and leave." She said. "Tell the others that they won't come near this house again, not to hurt anyone member of this family, and my sister, if you even try to use her or her husband's family to get to me or anyone else, I'll kill more of you. I don't mind killing Death Eaters."She said again to make sure that they got it. "I know more than you think, I might just look like a helpless damsel in distress, but take his body as a hint that I'm not!" She said with a serious and angry voice. "Tell that to whomever it is that you report to. Now go!"

The two of them looked at her with real fear in their eyes and hurried collected Rabastan's body and disapparated away from the kitchen.

She let out a hard sigh and took hold of something solid to keep her from falling. She looked up at the others around the table with a forced smile. "Help me." She whispered and fell to the ground, losing consciousness.
