A few moments later the door came bursting open. I turned my head to see both Fred and George standing in the doorway. Both of them quickly coming to my side as they held me. Resting my head against Georges' chest as I wrapped one arm around both of them.

"We are going to keep you safe," Fred said as he back away. Leaving me resting George as the tears poured out. 

"We promise," George said, "I am not going to let anything happen to you." 

"Why is this happening?" I cried, looking over towards Fred who immediately looked at George. Tilting my head upwards a little bit as I looked to George. Both of them looking as if they knew something they weren't going to tell me.

"Is there something I should know?" I asked, watching and George opened his mouth as he was going to say something. Then closing it quickly.

"Just tell her," Fred hushed. 

"We aren't supposed to," George said.

"Aren't supposed to what?" I asked, looking between the two of them. Pushing myself off George so I could get a look at the both of them. 

"Well someone better tell me or I am going to hex the both of you," I gritted. 

"The reason..." Fred began as my head shot his way.

"No Fred," George quickly cut in, "I'll tell her." As he stood there quieter than even.

"Well go on!" I protested, wrapping my arms around my self.

"The reason Bellatrix is after you is because she needs to complete the job she was given to do earlier in life. While she went to Azkaban for torturing the Longbottoms. She was also convicted for murder," George said as he took a deep breath as he looked over at Fred.

"Who did she kill?" I asked as George looked to the ground not making eye contact with me. Feeling the heat in my body rise as I looked over towards Fred who quickly looked away. 

"I'll ask this again," I said as I took in a deep breath, "Who did she kill?"

"She murder your mother," George finally said as I looked back over towards him. I quickly stormed out of their room as I headed down to the kitchen area were I could hear Remus talking with Arthur still. Fred and George followed closely behind as I kept pushing there voices aside of them telling me to come back upstairs. Slamming my hands on the table as I drew the attention of Remus and others around.

"Bellatrix killed my mother and you keep this from me! How could you?!" I screamed, everyone startled by my anger.

"It was for your safety. We never thought we would have to tell you," Remus said.

"I have a target on my back and I have for years now. What was she tasked with killing all three of us?" I asked

No one said a thing.

"She was," I scoffed, "And I am the last one left. So I am going to die and have her task fulfilled."

"You aren't going to die," Molly spoke softly.

"How can we be sure?" I asked as I felt George's hand on my back.

"Because as long as she doesn't know where you are or who you are with you are safe," George said.

"Yet in the meantime, she will be coming for all of you."

"Not if she doesn't know where we are as well," Remus said, "Daisy you have to believe us. Not only are we protecting your life now. We are also protecting Harry's and everyone else in this room. Both of you are wanted by powerful dark people. I've kept the vow I made to your parents the day you were born. Lily and James kept their vow too until they passed. I will not let anything happen to you."
