Lives Entwined

"I've had Enough of your nonsense Potter" the pink goblin pulls out her wand and summons her patronus. "Of course its a cat" I say under my breath, Ron snorts the patronus runs through the door and Umbridge turns her attention to us, just then the inquisitorial squad comes in with Luna, Ginny and Nevile at wand point Draco saying something about Nevile trying to help Ginny.

Well this is a disaster what am I going to do

"You were going to Dumbledore weren't you?" Umbridge says getting in Harry's face then slapping him just then Snape comes in, he looks at me then at Harry, nearly imperceptibly was squinting his eyes before looking back at Umbridge

"You sent for me, Mistress?" He says making his presence known, Umbridge bolts upright.

"Snape, yes the time has come for answers whether they want to give them to me or not, have you brought the veritaserum?"

"I'm afraid you've used up my stores interrogating students, the last of it on miss chen. Unless you wish to poison him, i assure you i will have the greatest sympathy if you do. I cannot help you" He says turning to leave

"Hes got Padfoot, hes got padfoot at the place where its hidden" harry says

"Padfoot, what is padfoot, where what is hidden, whats he talking about snape?" Umbridge says

Snape slowly turns back around "I have no idea" he says feigning ignorance before he turns and leaves

"Very well, you've made your choice potter, as this is an issue of Ministry security, you leave me with no alternative, the cruciatus curse ought to loosen your tongue"

What the hell is she on about "Thats illegal" is she insane?

"What Cornelius doesn't know, wont hurt him"

Merlins Sweaty balls Granger think, what to do what to do what to FUCKING DO, DAMNIT "TELL HER HARRY" I yell out when i see the words form on her lips

"Tell me what?"

Shit now look what you've done Granger "If you won't tell her where it is I will" WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING

"Where what is?"

"Dumbledore's secret weapon"

"Well then show me, come on we don't have all day" Umbridge says pulling me from my spot "nobody is to leave this room till i get back" she says before she pushes her wand into my back "walk, you too get up" she says grabbing Harry pulling him up "I SAID MOVE" Umbridge says sending a stinging jinx to my arm

Well now where am I going to go? The forest maybe we can lose her there I think as my feet carry me past Hagrids hut into the dark forest

about 2 kilometers in Umbridge starts complaining "how much further?"

"Not far" i say "it had to be somewhere students wouldn't find it accidentally" maybe Grawp can help us

"What are you doing?" Harry whispers in my ear

That's a good question "Improvising" I whisper back as we come across Grawp's tree, the rope had been broken, hes not here shit hes not here... Now what, cmon think Hermione

"Well? Where is this secret weapon?" Umbridge says "there isn't one is there, you were trying to trick me" Took ya long enough to figure that one out "you know, I really hate children" yea and we hate you

We hear a crunch and there is a small group of Centaurs just on the ridge Umbridge pushes us in front of her, I roll my eyes pussy

"You have no business here Centaur" she says with a tremble in her voice "this is a ministry matter" this causes them to step forward and draw their weapons "lower your weapons" umbridge says uselessly "I warn you, as creatures as near human intelligence"

god shes dumb i think as one fires their bow. She deflects it oh how nice

"How dare you, filthy half breed, Incarcerous" Oh well now you've done it

The rope strangles the centaur and it falls suffocating i
run up to it "Please, please stop it please" i beg

"No Enough" she yells "i will have order

Grawp comes out of nowhere and picks up Umbridge like the rat she is, the spell is dropped and the centaurs swarm grawp trying to get Umbridge

"Leave him alone" i say to the centaurs when
they start attacking him "it's not his fault, don't he doesn't understand" an arrow gets shot into his arm and he drops umbridge into the centaurs hands, they carry her off all the while shes screaming her useless information good riddance

"Thank you grawp" i say before harry pulls me and we run back to the castle

We see the rest of our friends i ask them how they got away but i don't really listen, ron hands me my wand and i see a dark figure at the end of the bridge, long black curls blowing in the wind, i blink and shes gone and Harry is talking.

"Look its not that i dont appreciate all that you guys have done but ive gotten you all into enough trouble as is"

"Dumbledore's Army is about doing something real" Nevile says "was it all just words to you?

"Maybe you don't have to do this all by yourself" ron says

"So how are we going to get to london?" Harry asks us

"Well we could use the floo network since Umbridge is gone" I say Harry shakes his head

"Too obvious, and we could get caught by draco and his crew again" Nevile says

"Well how about we fly?" Luna says dreamily Harry grins

"Fly? You mean with brooms?" Ginny asks

"No with Thestrails" Luna supplies as she starts walking back towards the forest Harry following close behind

"What are Thestrails?" Ron asks

"They are creatures that can only be seen by people that have witnessed death" i say amazed "but where are they"

"They let them roam the forest when they aren't pulling the carriages" Luna says

"They pull the carriages? I thought they pulled themselves" Ginny says as we come to a clearing

"Here they are, me and Harry will help you on them"

"There's nothing here?" Ginny says uselessly, Harry nods his head and grabs Her hand, but doesn't notice her blush, he pulls her towards a part of the clearing and hold her hand up and places it on something solid "Morgana, there's something here" harry kneels down motioning for her to step up, she does and sits on an invisible something, luna pulls Ron and Nevile to their own and harry brings me to mine, helping me up before running to his own. Luna is the last one to hers.

"everyone on?" luna says "Right" she leads hers into running and the others follow "Hold on guys"

My stomach lurches... I do NOT like this. We fly over the castle towards london.
