Innocence

Chapter 48

CAMILLA'S POV

I studied in the library until the sun went down. I decided to take a break and stretch my legs. I left my things and headed for the bathroom. I walked down the empty halls enjoying the peace. I had a strange feeling I was being followed but every time I turned around, I didn't see anything suspicious. I was washing my hands when I heard the door open. I always use the abandoned girls bathroom just to avoid people. So when I heard footsteps, I got a bit nervous. I was reaching for my wand when I realized I had left it at the table in the library. This was the absolute worst time in the world for this to happen.

My heart started to pound as the footsteps drew closer. The people came into sight and I was screwed. Evan and 2 other Hufflepuffs. "You should have stayed with those friends of yours." Evan said. I started to back up until my back hit the cold tile wall. "Remember when I told you I was going to make you regret ever coming back here." he asked. I shook my head in fear. "Please just leave me alone." I said, my voice coming out shaky. "The other day, outside the Great Hall, when Nathan told everyone what happened with you and the death eaters..." he started. My stomach churned. "It gave us an idea." one said. "I was most afraid of losing my best friend. Thanks to you, that happened." he said. "We know what you're most afraid of... that happening again." He said. The other two Hufflepuffs stepped closer. "Don't- Please" I said. They grabbed my arms and I screamed. I was thrown to the floor and I tried to crawl away. "Don't do this, Evan please. Cedric, he- he knew. He knew about what happened. He wouldn't want you to do this." I pleaded. He kicked me in the ribs hard. Then delivered a crushing blow to my cheek. "Don't say his name and don't fucking tell me what he would want" he yelled. I tried to move but my whole body hurt. I felt like I couldn't breathe because everytime I did it felt like my ribs broke a little more. Tears poured down my cheeks and I tried to drag my body back. "Hold her down" Evan said. They both looked hesitant. "We aren't actually going to do this are we?" one asked. "Yes, we are. She deserves it." Evan said. "But-" he started. "Do you not care about Cedric?" he asked. "You know I do mate." he said. "Then hold her down" he said. "No, no please don't" I cried. I screamed as Evan's friend held my wrists and the other pulled off my skirt. Evan kept his wand pointed at me as I thrashed on the floor. Then Evan climbed on top of me. He started to slowly unbutton the buttons to my shirt as he spoke. "Do you regret coming back yet?" he asked. He leaned close to my face. I fought but I couldn't move under his weight. The buttons were undone and my shirt fell open exposing my chest. "Answer me!" he snapped. I nodded. "Yes, I do, please. I do, I'll leave, I swear just let me go." I cried. He palmed my breast and pulled my underwear to the side. I screamed and screamed for help but nobody came. He thrust himself inside me and I cried out in pain. He covered my mouth with his hand and pounded into me. Once he finished, he pulled out and pulled up his pants. "Go ahead." he said. The other one grabbed me and pulled me up to my knees. "Incarcerous" Evan said and ropes bound my wrists behind my back. The boy stood in front of me and his bulge was right in front of my face. "Please no" I cried. More tears poured down my face. He grabbed the roots of my hair and forced himself inside my mouth. I choked on his length and I could hear them laughing. He finished in my mouth and I spit it out. The ropes disappeared from my wrists and I fell to the floor. They kicked me a few more times until my body was limp on the floor. Evan pulled out a knife and the blade sprung out. They held my arm down and he began to carve. I screamed and screamed as the knife cut through my flesh. "There, it goes with your dark mark" he said smugly. Then Evan knelt down next to me and grabbed my hair and forced me to look at him. "Be happy we didn't kill you, that's what you deserve." he said. Then he threw my head down and it hit the tile floor. They walked out and slammed the door. I could feel blood seeping from my head and I felt dizzy. I tried to call for help but I couldn't. I looked down at my arm where he had cut and a tear fell as i read it. Killer was carved into my arm and blood poured from the wound. I tried to stay awake but I just couldn't. Then it all faded and faded and everything went black.

HARRY'S POV

"That was bloody awesome." Ron said as we got ready for bed. "I know right." I said. We got into bed and turned off the lights. A few minutes later, I heard a knock. "Just ignore it. I'm tired." Ron said. "Whatever," I said. "Alohomora" a voice said and the door burst open. Ginny and Hermione ran in frantically. "What the bloody hell are you doing?" Ron yelled. "It's Cam, she's gone." Hermione said. "What!" I yelled jumping up. "We got back to our dorm and she wasn't there. So we went to the library thinking maybe she fell asleep there. All of her stuff is there but she's gone." Ginny said. "She even left her wand." Hermione added holding it up. I pulled out the Marauder's Map and pointed my wand at it. "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good." I said. The ink appeared and Ginny and Hermione walked over. We searched the map for Camilla's name. "There!" Ginny said pointing to the map. "The abandoned girls bathroom. She's there" she said. We all ran down there and through the halls. We got to the bathroom and burst through the door. Then I saw her.
