Chapter 74: Captured
We were walking in the woods when we saw the snatchers.
"Hello there, beautiful." One told Hermione.
The four of us quickly ran to different directions.
I followed Hermione then have my wand at a ready.
We began to fire up spells as we ran.
Hermione turned then saw Harry on the ground.
She quickly casted a spell to make Harry look different and swollen.
Hermione and I went to Harry. "The Hallows exist." Harry said.
"What?"
"But he's only after one of them. The last one. He's gonna have it by the end of the night. He knows who find the elder wand." Harry said.
The snatchers grabbed Hermione and I, making us squirm.
"Don't touch her!" Ron said, trying to break free from the snatcher's grasp.
"What's your name?" One of the snatchers asked Harry.
"Dudley. Vernon Dudley." Harry said.
"And you, lovely. What do they call you?" He asked Hermione.
"Penelope Clearwater. Half- blood." She said.
"And you- no need to ask who you are, my sweet." The snatcher said, looking at me.
"You don't?" I play dumb.
"Of course I know you, Y/N Rosecharm." He said then leaned in closer to the fact that we're inches away from one another.
"There's no Vernon Dudley here." One says.
"Hear that, ugly?" The snatcher said. "The list says you're lying."
"The list is wrong." Harry said.
The man took a closer look at Harry.
"Change of plan," he started. "We're not taking this lot to the ministry."
———
Malfoy Manor. Just great!
We watched as Bellatrix guard the gate.
She saw me then whispered to them.
"Get, Draco."
The gate opened, making us enter the manor.
As soon as we are inside, I saw Draco stepping in the room. "You ask for me?"
His voice seems emotionless and cold.
He looked at my direction then his pair of grey eyes met mine.
Draco's POV
I'm utterly happy my girlfriend is alive and okay.
But what is she doing with Granger and Weasley?
"Draco," Aunt Bella called, making me turn my attention to her.
She presented a boy. I know it's Potter. Who else will be hanging out with Granger and Weasley!
"Well?" She asked me with hope in her eyes.
I can't tell her. I need to protect the trio
because if a monster like me can't protect my one true love, they can.
"I can't be sure." I lied.
"Look closely, son," father grabbed my shoulder. "If we were to hand over Potter to the Dark Lord, everything will be just the way it is."
"Now we won't be forgetting who actually caught him I hope, Mr. Malfoy." The snatcher said.
"You dare talk to me like that in my own house?!" Father yelled.
"Lucius!" Mother hissed then grabbed father.
"Don't be shy," Aunt Bella said, bringing me closer to Potter. "We need to be sure."
"What's wrong with his face?" I asked.
"Yes, what is wrong with his face? Give me her wand. Let's see what her last spell was." Aunt Bella said, walking towards Granger.
Mother gently tapped my shoulder, making me stand next to her.
Then Aunt Bella frozen when she saw the sword of Gryffindor inside Y/N's bag.
My eyes widened. INSIDE Y/N'S BAG.
"Where did you get that?" Aunt Bella asked.
"We saw it in her bag when we searched her," The snatcher said, pointing at Y/N. "Reckon it's mine now."
Then my crazy aunt started firing spells.
"Go! GO!" She yelled, holding the sword.
"Put the boys and the mudblood girl in the cellar!" Aunt Bella ordered, pointing at Potter, Weasley, and Granger. "I'll have a conversation with this one. Girl to girl." She said, grinning at Y/N.
"No!" Granger yelled.
"Lucius, get Draco away from here." I heard mother whisper.
"No, no." I said.
Father brought me to another room.
"No! What is she going to do to her?!" I yelled.
Then I heard Y/N crying and screaming.
Y/N's POV
"That sword is supposed to be in my vault at Gringott's. How did you get it?!"
"I- I didn't. I didn't get anything!" I sobbed.
"LIAR!" She yelled.
Then I felt pain on my left arm. She's carving on my skin, making me scream even louder.
Draco's POV
"Father! Please let me go to her!" I said.
"No, Draco."
"Please, father! I need to go to her!"
Then I was able to get out of the room.
I began to ran to where Y/N is.
She is sobbing as my aunt continue to carve her skin.
"NO! STOP IT!" I yelled.
"Bella, please stop." Mother plead.
She stopped then walked to me. "Your lover's being stubborn." She chuckled then walked away.
Then the sight made my heart broke.
Y/N, laying there with a bloody carved arm that says 'traitor.'
I walked to Y/N then hugged her. "I'm so sorry."
"Draco?" She whispered.
I smiled sadly. "Yes, yes it's me."
Y/N's POV
"Expelliarmus!" I heard Ron chanted.
Draco pulled out his wand then looked at me.
"I'll be back." He said then fight alongside his mother.
Then I felt a harsh pull in my hair, making me stand.
Bellatrix placed the top of her wand on my neck.
"Stop!" I yelled, making them freeze.
"Drop your wands," Bellatrix said, tightening her grip on me. "I said DROP IT!"
They reluctantly dropped their wand.
"Get it, Draco, now."
Draco walked to the trio then got their wands.
"Look what we have here," Bellatrix whispered.
"It's Harry Potter. Shiny and new again. Just in time for the Dark Lord. Call him," she said,
facing Draco. "Call him." She ordered once
more.
Draco met my eyes, and I shook my head no.
Since Draco doesn't have the stomach to do it, his father rolled up his sleeve to call the Dark Lord.
Then we were interrupted by the crashing of the chandelier.
Bellatrix gasped then let go of me, making me ran to Draco.
Draco caught me. "Are you alright?"
"Yeah, yeah I'm fine." I said quietly.
He reached to his pocket then gave me the necklace. "Never take this off."
"I'm sorry for this, Draco." I said then smashed my lips on his, making me sneakily grabbed the wands he's holding.
He pulled away then looked at me in confusion.
"I love you." I said then walked to Harry's group.
I threw Harry his wand. "Stupefy!" He said, blasting Lucius.
"Stupid elf," Bellatrix said. "You could've killed me!"
"Dobby never meant to kill, only severely injure." Dobby said.
Narcissa raised her wand, ready to cast a spell.
Dobby clicked his fingers, taking her wand.
"How dare you take a witch's wand?! How dare you defy your masters!" Bellatrix yelled.
"Dobby has no masters," Dobby said. "Dobby is a free elf, and Dobby is here to save Harry Potter and his friends."
The trio and I went to Dobby then we started to apparate.
Little did we know that Bellatrix threw a knife at our direction.
My birthday is coming soon!😍
