Daisy's father said, and she herself agreed, that the Weasleys were one peculiar bunch.
They weren't as affluent, sociable, and affable as her other neighbours. They never came to the local kids' birthdays, they never invited the local kids to their...
Her vision was tunneling and she was swimming in and out of consciousness. She could hear her heart beat and blood rushing in her ears, incessant loud ringing, and the echoing sound of her father screaming "How could you?!

She saw a hint of red and she smiled, thinking it was definitely one of the Weasleys. Fred, maybe, being her wizard in shining armor. Saving her.
'Hang on, I'm calling the police.'
'Vincent, this is not what you—'
'Sir, I'm calling the police! And an ambulance!'

Jane...
JANE.
"JANE!"
She took a sharp intake of breath and saw her two best friends, looking down at her. Lucy was crying, while Vincent seemed frightened and pale, a phone stuck to his ear. Something gave a loud pop sound and Lucy screamed, whimpering.
And Daisy fell asleep.
