Part 16

"Harry, where on earth are you going?" I shout across the wooden bridge and he whips around to meet my gaze. 

"To get Sirius and you're staying here" He says trying to get away from me but at the end of the day, Sirius is Harry's godfather. I'll try my best to help him get him back from Voldemort. 

"I am coming." I bluntly say being stubborn as I'm not willing to let him go without me. 

"We all are, you can't do this alone Harry" Hermione smiles and I'm for once grateful that she's here. We have to work together if we want to get out of this alive. 

With that, we were on our way to the ministry of magic. Time to get Sirius back to us all. 

_____________________

As we walk into the Ministry all is quiet, almost too quiet. We reach a room full of crystal balls, or prophecies as wizards and witches call them. I get a small shiver up my spine as I realise how dark it was, how little light is actually entering this room.  

"Lumos" We all whisper in unison and the room brightens up a bit. 

Suddenly a (what I'm assuming to be) death eater appears and slowly makes his way towards us. His mask making my skin crawl. 

"Where's Sirius?!" Harry tries to command but fails miserably as his voice shakes a little, after all these people killed our parents. 

"You know, you should be able to tell the difference" The deep voice starts. "Between dreams and reality" 

The death eater removes it's mask, and it's no other than Lucius Malfoy. Draco's father. "You only saw what the dark lord wanted you to see!"

"Hand me the prophecy" Lucius demands holding out a hand to my brother as if he will hand over the crystal ball. 

"If you do anything to us I'll break it" Harry threatens, making Lucius smirk a little. Out of no-where a bone chilling laugh brings me back into reality. Bellatrix Lestrange... 

"He knows how to play!" The psychopath begins. "Itty, bitty, baby. Potter" She spits out our last name making me jump and stand back a little. 

"Bellatrix Lestrange?" A boy from Gryffindor Neville Longbottom speaks up. I've heard about the terrible things Bellatrix has done to that poor boys family. 

"Neville Longbottom is it? How's mum and dad?" She laughs daringly at the memories of torture in her mind. 

"Better now they're about to be avenged!" He points his wand at her making her gasp and bring up her wand but Lucius keeps her back. 
"Let's everybody just calm down" He says calmly trying to calm the situation. 

"Why did Voldemort need Harry to come and get this?" I speak out, making Bellatrix look at me in confusion. 

"You dare speak his name?" She almost whispers, looking me up and down in disrespect. "YOU FILTHY HALFBLOOD!"

"It's okay...Who's this we have here?" Lucius asks but I'm stopped before I can say anymore. 

"It's my sister, and if you dare hurt any hair on her head-" Harry starts shouting but gets interrupted by Lucius again. 

"We wouldn't dream of it" He lies staring at me in wonder, I guess Draco never told him that I exist. Funny. 

Suddenly Hermione and I notice the death eaters circling around us, caging us in like animals waiting for its prey...
