8- Regret Is The Most Painful Thing

Two weeks later, Skyler marches through the halls of the Hogwarts Dungeons. She and Malfoy must patrol until midnight, to make sure there are no students out of bed, every evening. Skyler tries to stay as far away from Draco Malfoy as possible, trying not to answer all his questions.

"Skyler!" A panting Malfoy exclaims as he runs after her. "Please, just wait." Rolling her eyes and sighing, Skyler turns around and looks the boy dead in the eyes.

"What do you want Malfoy? Tell me how sorry you are? Ask me to be your friend again?" She spats, her eyes not once breaking their glare into the metal-blue ones.

"Well... yes." Malfoy says, a little dumbfounded.

"Then forget it!" Skyler growls. "I have forgiven you more than once for this kind of mistakes. You can't expect me to do that again. You and your friends have broken every inch of me last year. I won't allow you a chance to do that again." She says, warm tears forming in her eyes and her knuckles white from the tensing of her fists.

Malfoy just stands there, his eyes filled with pain and disbelief. Skyler wants nothing more than to just run back to her old friends and tell them how much she misses them, but if she does that, she'll immediately lose herself and her morals. Never.

"I'm just..." Malfoy starts, "so incredibly sorry..." He whispers, trying to approach her carefully. Skyler jumps away from him and glares at him again.

"Yeah, you know what? It would have really helped if you said something like this before I almost died. I was risking my life in that maze, Malfoy, and neither you nor Parkinson, Zabini or Nott showed a small act of kindness towards me. Yes, the adult-versions certainly did. By laughing and smirking, whilst knives and swords found their way into my body." Skyler says to him, Malfoy flinches with every insult. Skyler walks towards him and holds her lips to his ear.

"Every scar on my body, is dedicated to you and your despicable friends." She growls into his ear. These words aren't true, of course. But Skyler just needed to say them, she had to make sure he stayed out of her way. Then Skyler turns around and walks out of the Dungeons, out of the school, where she is waited by a black raven.

"Oh my god." She whispers. Her entire body trembles as she walks towards the bird, which holds a piece of paper in his claws. Carefully she takes it, and the bird flies away again. Skyler unfolds the paper and reads the text.

Skyler,

Please, listen to me for this once. Don't leave the grounds of Hogwarts. It isn't safe. Something is coming after all of us. I've already sent your mother and brother to Asgard with Loki and Cassidy. Ultron will try to find and kill you, my dear daughter. Don't let him, please. – Dad.

We all love you, Sky. But he's too dangerous. He's already got Nat. Stay safe. That's what Nat would want too. – The Avengers.

Ps. We're at Avengers Tower, Skyler. I know you'll be there as soon as you get this. – Tony Stark.

Skyler chuckles when she reads Tony's message. Hell yes, she's going to be there. She'll be there within two minutes from now.

"Let hell come lose, for I'm going to give whoever printed this in their mind some real piece of shit." Skyler growls under her breath, before teleporting to the Avengers Tower.
