"No! Please! No! Don't do it!" I begged as realization washed over me. She laughed maniacally and walked over to Clevely.

I wracked my brain for a way to try to get us all out of here. I looked up at my dad pleadingly, and he shared the same scared expression as me. Very slowly I crawled  over to him. He loosened the ropes around my body and I threw my arms around him. "Daddy, I'm scared." I cried. He patted my hair and rocked me back and fourth.

"Shh.." He whispered. "Moomma will come and get us. I promise." He whispered. I nodded my head and searched my pockets. I felt someone's wand on the inside of my jacket, whose wand I had no idea. I slowly lifted it out and into my father's hands. He mumbled something and he was free of his bonds, but he left them on his wrists.

"When I say so, get behind me." He whispered ever so quietly. I nodded and stared out at Toby. He was throwing curses at the cage to try and free himself, but it wasn't working.

"Toby." I whispered. He immediatly stopped what he was doing and stared at me. "You can hear me?" I whispered again. He nodded and gave me a weak smile. I tore my gaze from him and looked at my dad. "Dad, can you disarm Clevely? I can have Toby disarm Bellatrix." He pondered it and then nodded.

I looked out at Bellatrix and Clevely who were still talking. I slowly stood up and took in a deep breath. "NOW!" I shouted. Both dad and Toby threw disarming charms at out two captors and there wands fell to the floor.

And then there was a pop! Dad and I turned around and saw mum. How did she get here?

Maddie's pov

"George! What are we going to do?!" I said, panic stricken. I paced back and fourth, trying to figure something out.

"First you need to calm down. Panicing woun't get us anywhere." He paused. "Maybe we shoudl go to Harry, or McGonagall-"

"George! Don't you understand? By the time we will find them they will be dead, and I honestly can't let that happen!" I nearly shouted. The words Remus Lupin told me the day I went up to heaven with Molly and Arthur echoed through my head.

It'll be sooner than you think..

It'll be sooner than you think..

I let out a strangled cry and paced over the whole shop. I stopped when I felt the temperture drop significantly. "George- George! Do you feel that?" I asked. He walked over to me but shook his head. "Oh my- George! It's a trace of apparation and only I can feel it cause I'm a ghost! I can follow it and find out where they are! Go get Harry and telll him what's happened." I said quickly. Before he could say anything I aparated; which was something I haven't done in a while.

I felt traces of Arabeela and Toby during apparation, and when I landed I was in some dark cellar.

"Mum?" Two familiar voices called.

"Get down!" A deeper voice shouted. I saw Arabella dive to the floor and Fred followed, protecting her. Behind them Bellatrix and Clevely had there wand pointed at me.

"So we meet again mum." I said visciosly. She cracked a grin and laughed.

"So we do. You do know why I brought you here, don't you?" She grinned. I cocked my head to the side and she grinned even more. "Have you ever heard of the Orb of Life?" I felt my face fall and felt as though I was turned to stone.

"No- No please!" I begged. She laughed and looked at Clevely who was trying to curse Toby. "Leave him alone!" I shouted. Clevely shot the torture curse at him and he squirmed around while letting out a strangled cry. I orbed over to Clevely, wrapped him in a headlock and dug my wand into the base of his throat.

"What are you going to do to him, kill him?" Bellatrix asked.

"Try me." I said menacingly. "I've killed people before, what makes you think I won't do it to him?"

"Go ahead." She almost urged me to do. I whispered the killing curse and he fell to the floor.

"You're next." I shouted. But she wasn't where I was expecting her to be. She already made her way over to Fred and had her wand at his throat, her hands gripping his hair roughly. "Please don't!" I cried. I expected her to answer, but then everthing froze. Like someone paused a television. They were frozen in place, Bellatrix had her mouth open, about to say the killing curse.

Then, from the ceiling, white smoke reigned down. And then I was somewhere else.

"Madeline. Jane Weasley, nee Potter." A deep voice whispered. "You have been brought forth to the Councel of Tempus."
