Just an odd thing.
Narcissa walked into the drawing room, her calm masking her panic. "Bella!" she called. Bellatrix turned round and saw her "Cissy" she greeted her.
"It's over Bella" Narcissa spluttered.
"What?" Bellatrix asked confused, her hand twitching around her wand in her holster.
"The Dark Lord has fallen" Narcissa sobbed. Bellatrix fell to the floor shocked and started sobbing, Narcissa fell to her knees next to her sister "He's dead" Narcissa breathed.
"No" Bellatrix shook her head.
"The ministry's coming" Narcissa said her eyes wide "We have to tell them we were under the Imperius curse, that's what we'll tell them"
"I'm not going to lie, Cissy, I'm proud" Bellatrix had stopped crying "He'll come back, we'll stay loyal"
"I have a son, I have to lie" Narcissa started crying as she thought of her 18 month old son, Draco.
"Be proud Cissy, when Draco is older he will be proud of you, for being on the right side" Bellatrix enthused.
"I can't, they'll send us to Azkaban" Narcissa tried to make her sister understand "They'll take Draco, Bella, your own nephew. They'll take him" Narcissa collapsed holding onto Bella's skirts.
"The Dark Lord will rise again and he'll reward the loyal" Bellatrix told her sister.
"I can't Bella, for Draco" Narcissa shook her head.
"Then Lucius must be proud" Bellatrix took her sister's hands. Narcissa shook her head mutely, Bellatrix's face fell. She pulled herself up, her sister still on the floor "Where's Draco?" she asked.
"Upstairs" Narcissa whispered, she fell to the ground. Bellatrix disappeared.
She came back with Draco in her arms; he was playing with the beads on his aunt's rich silk dress. "Cissy, you can hide and stay with Lucius and Draco but I will show the Dark Lord that I am proud and loyal" Bellatrix sat Draco on her hip, not looking at him "I have to go Cissy"
"Where?" Narcissa asked red eyed.
"To find out where he is" Bellatrix answered "I know he's alive"
"Don't go Bella" Narcissa stood up.
"I have to" Bella said coldly. She gave Narcissa back Draco. Bellatrix summoned her cloak and left. That was the last time Narcissa saw her sister for 14 years.
