That Damn Weasley Charm II G.W

Part 7, Chapter 7- The Great Escape

Uncle Lucius sends Draco down to the cellar where we've been keeping the other prisoners. He thinks that if the goblin can tell my mother that the sword is fake then we can summon the Dark Lord. And according to the goblin, the sword is in fact a fake, which means...

"And I think, we can dispose of the Mudblood. Greyback, take her if you want." My mother says now that's she's done with Hermione.

"NOOOOOOOO!" A voice, Ron's voice, the blithering idiot.

My mother and I spin around, "EXPELLIARMUS!" Ron and I shout at the same time, his spell hits my mother, her wand soars across the room and Harry catches it in mid-air. My spell hits Ron straight in the chest and his wand, or whoever's wand he has, goes soaring across the room.

Uncle Lucius, aunt Narcissa, Greyback, and Draco all join me in sending hexes and jinxes towards the two boys, not like I'm trying too hard of course.

"STOP OR SHE DIES!" My mother screams. Everyone stops and looks at my mother. She's got Hermione up on her feet, holding a silver dagger on her throat. "Drop your wands," she whispers now, deadly, "Drop them, or we'll see exactly how filthy her blood is." The two boys look at her stunned for a moment. My mother pushes the knife into Hermione's throat more and little droplets of blood show up, "I said, drop them." She hisses

"Alright!" Harry shouts. He tosses my mother's wand to the floor. The two of them raise their hands in surrender.

"Draco, go pick up that wand. Violet dear get mine." My mother hisses. Draco goes running across the room to get the one that I sent flying out of Ron's hands. I walk over, staring at Ron and Harry as I pick up my mother's wand. I don't turn my back to them. I know they can't hurt me, won't hurt me, but I make sure that they are always in my line of sight just in case.

"Now." My mother says with an air of confidence, "Cissy, I think we ought to tie these little heroes up again while Greyback takes care of Miss Mudblood. I am sure the Dark Lord will not begrudge you the girl Greyback, after what you have done tonight."

As soon as those words left her mouth there was a grinding noise from above, we all look up just in time to see the great big chandelier start to fall out of the sky. I jump out of the way, my mother throws Hermione to the floor and jumps just a second before the crystal chandelier crashes to the floor. It falls on top of Hermione and the goblin who was still holding onto the sword.

Ron runs over to the chandelier, Harry looks at Draco and attacks him, trying to get the wand out of his hand. I go over and pull Harry off of him, slipping my mother's wand into Harry's hand as I do so. Harry looks at me shocked for a second before he points both the wands at Greyback and shouts, "Stupefy!"

My mother jumps up to her feet again, wielding the silver dagger. My aunt Narcissa has her wand pointed at the doorway, "Dobby!" She shrieks. Even my mother jumps at the sound of her sister's voice. I spin around and look at Dobby, my old house-elf and do my best not to smile. "You! YOU dropped the chandelier-?"

Dobby trots into the room, pointing one of his long fingers at my aunt, "You must not hurt Harry Potter!" he squeaks.

"Kill him, Cissy!" My mother shrieks.

There was a loud CRACK and aunt Narcissa's wand goes soaring through the air and clatters to the floor a ways away.

"You dirty little monkey!" My mother roars, "How dare you take a witches wand, how dare you defy your masters!"

I've never seen Dobby mad, it's a refreshing sight, "Dobby has no master! Dobby is a free elf, and Dobby has come to save Harry Potter and his friends!" The little elf squeals.

"Ron! Catch! GO!" Harry screams. He launches the wands through the air at his friend and pulls the goblin out from under the chandelier. He grabs onto Ron, who's holding Hermione, grabs onto Dobby's hand.

My mother screams and throws her silver dagger at them, as soon as it hits the group they apparate away, leaving all of us standing there awkwardly looking at each other.

The Dark Lord appears out of nowhere and my mother screams in anguish. I grab Draco's arm and pull him out of the room, far away from the Dark Lord's anger. I pull Draco up into my room, I can hear shouting and screaming coming from downstairs. I close my door and put up my usual charms.

"We stay here. We don't leave for anyone." I say panting.

Draco looks at me from the other side of my room, "You gave Harry aunt Bellatrix's wand." He says.

"If I didn't then he wouldn't have been able to get out and he would have been killed. Did you really want that to happen? Do you really want the Dark Lord to win this war?" I snap.

Draco looks at me with a blank expression on his face, "No I suppose not... that was pretty badass Violet. If the Dark Lord ever knew..."

"Yeah well, he's not going to know. He thinks that I'm the next Bellatrix LeStrange. Loyal, dedicated, all that shit. And you're not going to tell him anything are you?"

Draco shakes his head a bunch, "No course not. Never."

"Then we don't have anything to worry about do we."

Draco and I look at each other for a while, "I wish I could have done more, protected them in some way." He says to me.

"You did what you could, told your parents that you couldn't recognize them."

Draco rolls his eyes, "Yeah and look how good that worked. They were locked in the basement."

"But they're gone now... alive... as safe as they can be..."

"Aunt Bellatrix sent a dagger with them, who knows which one of them it hit." Draco points out.

We go quiet again, "If it hit Harry the Dark Lord would know."

"Oh yeah? How would he have known?"

Silence.

"He just would have."

"Cause that makes me feel better. What if it was George in there?"

"It was George in there when the Death Eaters attacked Bill and Fleur's wedding. I know how you feel."

Draco sits at my desk chair and bounces his forehead off the desk a few times, "This isn't my war. I don't want to fight it."

I sit on the end of my bed and pull my legs under me, "I'm not going to fight it. I'm going to protect."

Draco looks at me, "Protect?"

I nod a bunch, "When the time comes because merlin knows its coming soon, I'm going to protect the people I love on the battlefield. I don't have a side, I just want it all to be over with the people I love still in one piece."

Draco nods a couple of times, "Yeah... yeah I like that..."

There's a loud crash from downstairs and Draco practically jumps out of his skin, "God I want to be back at school." He sighs.

I look at my bedroom door half expecting the Dark Lord to come in at any second and hex the both of us, "I do too honestly, I do too."
