Chapter 48

Last Time:

"You heard Shacklebolt. Get to safety. You don't have much time before Bellatrix, Lucius Malfoy and the other Death Eaters arrive" Alex crosses her arms and walks to a chair. She sits down on it watching everyone disappear. Alex grabs a cup full of water and takes a sip. Just then, she hears cracks and pops as the Weasley family waves their wands making it look like it was only the family.

"What's happened here?" Alex looks up and sees it was Bellatrix that spoke.

"We missed the party. But Molly was nice enough to let me have a drink and a slice of cake that is left over" Alex answers and raises an eyebrow, "do you have a problem with that?"

"Since when did you get sarcastic?" Lucius asks.

"I always have been sarcastic stupid. I maybe silent when Voldemort speaks but all of you, not a chance in hell" the death Eaters gasp when Alex said 'Voldemort', "oh get over yourself! I will call him Tom then" Alex stands up and waves her wands making all the Death Eaters get thrown out of the tent. Alex walks to the barrier that she made and crosses her arms, "now go away. Tell Tom I will be back unless I get kidnapped" Alex walks away leaving pissed off Death Eaters that try to break through the barrier, but that never succeeds.

Now:

Alex walks over to the Weasley family. Molly stares at Alex shocked and eyes full of sadness.

"What happened to you sweetie?" Molly asks as she kneels down and grabs Alex's hands.

"Voldemort took me from the school" tears quickly begins to fall from her eyes, "he and Bellatrix has been training me to kill muggleborns, half bloods and blood traitors. I tried fighting it but it's no use. They were going to kill Minnie and Hagrid if I didn't join them Molly" Alex begins to sob, "they even made me kill my best friend Mason" Alex falls into Molly's arms crying hysterically.

Molly hugs the young girl tightly, not allowing her to go. She looks at Arthur.

"Alex is going to stay with us Arthur. Before Dumbledore passed, he told me that Alex has a mission. She is going to start in December. We are going to keep her with us until then" Arthur nods. They both know that they will not be able to keep Alex hidden from Voldemort and his crew, but they could try.

~H&A~

Harry, Ron and Hermione are sitting in the cafe in London, England.

"Do you think Alex is really a Death Eater?" Ron asks Hermione and Harry in a whisper.

"Then she would have killed everyone and took me to Voldemort" Harry tells, "plus she told me to get you and Hermione, and run. She told Luna to get her dad and go. She just stood there letting everyone go" Hermione nods in agreement.

"If she was a death Eater, she wouldn't have done that. She will get in SO much trouble and maybe even get killed" Harry's eyes widen.

"She might get killed?" Hermione's and Ron's eyes widen in realisation.

"We can't think like this. She must be just fine. She is a fighter" Hermione tells them. Ron and Harry nods, "guys, Alex is fine. I'm sure the Order has taken her and hid her away for her protection"

Harry and Ron nods.

"She's just fine" Ron and Harry whispers to themselves in hope of making it true.

With Harry under the invisibility cloak, he watches as two guys pull out wands.

"GET DOWN!" Harry shouts at Hermione and Ron. The three of them ducks and the three 17 year olds begins to battle the two guys.

As Hermione erases their memories 5 minutes later, Ron looks at the guys.

"This is Yaxley. I remember seeing him on wanted posters" Ron tells them, "the other is Pius Thicknesse. He works at the Ministry and is under the Imperius Curse"

Once their minds are erased, Harry, Ron and Hermione runs out of the cafe. They run down an alley way and crashes into... Rose.

"Rose" Harry whispers.

"You guys can't be here. Everyone is in hiding. HE is hunting down Alex. HE wants her back" Rose whispers.

"Why don't you just say his name?"

"It's how he finds everyone. His name is tabooed" Hermione and Ron nods.

"That's must have been how he found us" Hermione tells Harry, "We have to go. We need to get out of here" Hermione, Ron and Harry holds hands and Harry reaches out to Rose.

"Would you like to join us?" Rose smiles and grabs his hand.

"I will for the night. But I am going to go back to the hide out" that next second they disappear and end up at Grimmauld Place.

~A&H~

Alex rubs her forehead and sits up on the couch in the Weasley living room. Alex rubs her eyes and smells pancakes. Alex gets to her feet and walks to the kitchen.

"What do you mean Charity Burbage is missing?" Molly shouts.

"Keep your voice down. Alex is sleeping" Arthur tells Molly.

"I'm actually awake. Thank you for your concern though" Alex smiles walking to the table that Molly and Arthur are talking at. Alex hugs them both and sits down next to Molly, "HE killed Professor Burbage because she was trying to teach us that it is ok to be friends with muggles and that muggleborns are ok. Even that wizards and muggles can marry" Alex explains.

"HE?" Arthur asks, "Why don't you just say V..."

"DON'T!" Arthur stops quickly when Alex shouted at him, "his name is tabooed. That is how he finds people. If you say his name, he will find you and either kill you or capture you"

"How do you know?" Molly asks. Alex lifts her sleeve, and there on her left arm is the Dark Mark.

"I'm not qualified as one of them. When it burns, there's a meeting. When the skull smiles, like right now, his name is tabooed. When someone touches it, only the one that has it, they call him. If I wanted to be found, which I don't, I just have to touch it or say his name" Molly pulls Alex into a hug.

"We will protect you with our lives Alex" Alex hides her face in Molly's neck and starts to cry. Crying for her pain, her losses, Mason, and most important... Dumbledore.

Everyone hears a pair of footsteps thumping down the stairs.

"Ahh, the death Eater is still here" Alex hears Ginny's voice ring out, "why don't you go back to Voldemort and get killed" Alex's head snaps up and feels the burning.

"GO!" Alex pushes Arthur and Molly quickly, making them get up, "they are coming!" Arthur grabs Ginny's arm and drags her to the basement, which no one knows they have. Molly grabs Alex's arm, "no Molly. It's too late for me" Alex takes out a coin from her pocket, "I have the other. I will contact you with this. Now go" Molly hugs Alex and cries. She runs to the basement as Alex covers the trapdoor with the rug. She slips on her cloak and waits a good 2 seconds, before the door bangs open.

"Ahh... Alex is here" Alex looks up and sees Voldemort himself, "so you said my name huh?"

Alex stares at him lifeless and nods.

"Good. Come along" Alex walks to him and he wraps an arm around her shoulders before disappearing.

So much for staying safe.

What do you think? Please review. It's good to know that Alex has her humanity still right?
