I Am Lacerta Chapter 53

While I explained the plan, I looked around at all the people to see who Aoife had brought. I was impressed by the sheer numbers on such short notice - she definitely knew what she was doing.

My pitiful uncle, Lucius the furthest on the left, looking grim at the prospect of being bossed about by his 13-year-old niece. Next to him stood Nott, a slimy little man who shook frequently, but I had heard he was a good dueller... sometimes.

Next to him stood Crabbe, who was looking as thick as ever, then Aoife who looked determined and like she understood what I was saying, but her eyes kept darting to the man on her left and right, as Goyle was on her other side.

Finally she had brought three new recruits, who's backgrounds were all virtually the same - hard core Slytherin parents, graduated last year, hated muggleborns, half-bloods, blood traitors, half breeds... basically anything that wasn't them. 

"Okay, have you all got that?" I asked at the end of the explanation.

Lucius and Nott nodded grimly, as did the three new Death Eaters. Aoife gulped visibly and tried to smile weakly. Crabbe and Goyle just looked confused.

I sighed. "I'll say it slower, 'k?" I asked, and they nodded slowly.

"Depending on numbers, we will fight in pairs or threes. I don't think they brought very many people. Lucius, you're with Nott. Crabbe, you're with Goyle. Aoife, you're with.. I'm sorry I don't know you three's names.." I said awkwardly, though I'm pretty sure it may have come across snooty.

A black haired girl with violet highlights and eyes to match, looked like she would rip out my throat at being so socially dissed by me, her pale skin flushed with anger - but she was put to a stop by a poke in the chest from a short, blond haired boy with plain brown eyes and a nose too large for his face. His face was permanently turned down in a snooty smirk.

The last boy had dark black hair and stormy brown eyes, his chocolate brown skin seemed to be glowing - he was in his element. He spoke up first and said;

"I'm Aaron Slater. This is Blake DaVira and Evangeline Brooke. We all just graduated Hogwarts."

"Okay, well I don't know if you know, but I'm La-"

"Lacerta Lestrange? Oh yes. We all know you." he said creepily. 

"I should remember you guys really - I know you were Slytherin prefect, Evangeline along with Paley - he's already a Death Eater." I stated, before turning back to the rest of the group.

"Right then - Aoife you can go with Evangeline - you look like a good fighter, don't let me down - and Blake and Aaron together, 'k?" 

"Who's your pair?" asked Blake snootily.

"Oh... I don't need one." I said ominously. 

"If we completely outnumber them, go in threes. If they outnumber us, split up. Do you guys all know the Unforgivables?" I asked the graduates.

Evangeline nodded, as did Aaron, but Blake just gulped and shivered uncontrolably. 

"Good - that'll do. Let's go. Lucius, take the front. I'll take the back. Don't get captured and don't lose. Go." I said and Lucius immediately ran ahead with Nott, Crabbe, and Goyle. I stayed back as the three new Death Eaters ran ahead.
