Goodness me, Expelliarmus!", I said as I raced towards Sam who was cornered. "Get away from him if you value your life!", I exclaimed as I caught a stray wand."Crucio!", I shouted aloud and one of the men writhed in pain. "You don't want to end up like him", I threatened. "Oh yeah?", he asked. Trust me to be stupid for I loosened my grip on the wand and lowered it. Snap! Somebody pulled it from my grip and I felt someone keep a knife at my throat. Sam turned pale, I tried to fight but the knife dug deeper into my skin. "I was looking forwad to killing my neice. It's such a satisfying feeling", the unmistakable voice of Bellatrix reached my ears. "One down, and this one will go too if you don't give us your wand", she told Sam. "Never! Don't-", the knife dug deeper, and I felt pain. I kicked my foot back, and she left me. "Don't wait there! Do something, Sam!", I remarked as I clutched my hair back in frustration."Crucio", A whisper caught my ear and I felt pain as I fell to the ground and was immediately flung against the wall. "Call help", I mumbled as Sam held me in his arms. "No, Relia. I won't leave you alone", he whispered as he clutched me. "Go! They need you. I'll be okay, Sam.", I mumbled as I stood up. I saw a wand near my foot, Sam's.I grabbed it. "Protego Maxima!", I whispered as I pointed it at Bellatrix who was flung back. "Go, get Skye. Get our friends!", I exclaimed. Sam nodded, took the wand and left, and I stood up. "You sure might be his chief, but does he even care for you?", I asked as I circled Bellatrix, after having yanked my hidden wand out. I had started to keep a wand in my socks since his rise, and this had helped a lot. "Yes, and you are a filthy illegitimate. Nobody ever cared for you", she taunted. "Stupefy! Say that again, and you'll regret it so much, you piece of junk", I spat back. our taunts led to a duel, which was interfered when I had to block a spell headed towards Pansy. As much as I loathed her, she didn't deserve to be over so quickly. It had to be painful. As soon as I was freed from dueling Bellatrix, I ran where the main battle was taking place. I couldn't spot Sam anywhere, and in one corner, I saw Roselette sitting with Skylar who was crying. I walked upto them. "What is wrong? Where is Sam?", I asked. They didn't reply. "Sit, You will need to", Xavier said as he pushed me onto what remained of the stairs. "Okay, but where is Sam?", I asked confused. "WHY CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND! SAM IS GONE! ALL BECAUSE YOU COULDN'T COME ON TIME!", Skylar burst out. I gasped. "I- I- I am sorry, is he-", words failed me as Skylar pushed me away. "I- I'll go. They probably might need help with all the damages and injuries", I said and quickly retreated away. I could see Roselette's worried look but I ignored it. Sam was...de? But that wasn't possible, was it? He couldn't have. Not while he owed me. I walked to the used-to-be Great Hall in a daze. Air. I needed Air. "Aurelia, could you help us out here?", I heard Ron. I turned and saw Hermione injured. I waved my wand muttering the incantation to numb the pain. Maybe this was all a dream, a nightmare, I would wake up in my dorm with Octavia smiling at me and a letter from my mother.
