Lexi let out a blood curdling scream as she was tossed against wall, her body curled as she fell, tears falling down her face.
“Please, please stop,” Lexi whispered as she flinched in pain, Bellatrix standing over her, letting out a cackling laugh.
“Bellatrix, that is enough!” Narcissa screamed, swifting walking over to the corner where Lexi laid. “Come on dear, you should eat something,” Narcissa placed her arm on Lexi but she flinched.
“You filthy half blood!” Bellatrix screamed, flicking her wand hard infront of her, causing Lexi to cry out in pain, her whole body extended as her body felt like she’d been electrocuted.
“Has our guest spoken yet?” Voldemort asked standing behind the two girls. Bellatrix shook her head, moving out of the way to Voldemort could see Lexi. “Narcissa, help our guest upstairs,”
Narcissa nodded her head, placing her hand gently on Lexis arm, she slowly helped the girl to her feet.
“Please,” Lexi weakly said, placing her head down as she walked. “Kill me,” She whispered as tears fell on her bare feet.
Bellatrix and Voldemort followed Narcissa and Lexi up the stairs, placing Lexi at the end of the dinning hall table, her head falling backwards.
“I would like everyone to meet Lexi Baller, our guest of the evening,” Voldemort smirked, sitting at the end of the table, looking at Lexi.
Walburga Blacked looking at the girl, standing up and shooting her wand forward, hitting Lexi causing her to scream and fall, but Wormtail held her straight.
“Enough, sit down Black!” Voldemort hit his fists on the table, causing Walbruga to sit down in anger, muttering something under her breath.
Severus Snape looked at Lexi, keeping a straight face but his mind was running in circles, unbeloved that he was looking at Lexi, he hadn’t known where she was, until this moment.
“My lord,” Severus said turning his head to look at Voldemort. Severus was about to say something but stopped himself.
“Our dearest guest here will be joining us for dinner, everyone welcome her,” Voldemort smirked looking around the table. “Something wrong Severus?”
Severus took his eyes away from Lexi, who had her head swung back, too weak to even keep her head straight.
“No my lord,” His voice was miserable, something in his stomach felt horrible, Lexi was the nice girl when he went to Hogwarts, but he’d also felt a bit of joy seeing her horrid and half alive, she’d also been a complete bitch to him.
“My lord, we’ve had her here for nearly nineteen years, surly she’s not good for us anymore, wouldn’t it be easier to kill her?” Bellatrix asked gripping her wand tighty in her hand, grinning at the girl.
“No!” Voldemort snapped banging his fist on the table. “She is valuable to us, a bargain at the most, people care about her, and that is what will get them,” His voice calmed.
“Please,” Lexi whimpered, using all the force she had left to stick her head up, unable to see almost nothing, her face nearly unrecognizable, even to her bestest friends.
“Wormtail, get our guest some food!” Voldemort shouted raising her wand in the air, Wormtail quickly ran out of the room.
Narcissa turned her head to Draco, who had been looking at Lexi, he heard stories from his aunt Anadaroma, who talked about Lexi, so he’d known about her disappearance as well, Adaorma taking it harshly.
“Nausicaa take our guest back to the dungeons, Wormtail will bring her food, and you’ll take care of her, the morning she’ll give us information,”
Narissa stood up from her seat quickly walking over towards Lexi, she looked for a second then placed her hand on her shoulder.
“Please,” Lexi whimpered again closer her eyes, she shook her head letting tears fall down her face, knowing she wouldn’t last the morning torture, knowing it’ll be the worst of it.
Narcissa helped Lexi up, tossing her right arm over her and bringing her to lean against her.
“I trust Lexi dearest, that you’ll give us what we need,” Voldemort crackled as Narcissa kicked the door infront of her open, she used her free hand to hold her wand tight, just incase Lexi had tried anything.
“I’m sorry they’re doing this to you dear,” Narcissa whispered as she helped the girl down the hallway.
“Your food,” Wormtail quivered as he walked behind Lexi and Narcissa. Lexi knew she had to do something, and this was her change.
Lexi pushed all her body weight on Narcissa, collapsing the both of the ground. Wormtail dropped the food in fear as Lexi laid on the ground, Narcissa helping herself quickly.
“Wormtail help me get her up!” Narcissa command looking at Wormtail, he quickly walked over to Lexi who was laying on her side. Her eyes open just a bit, looking over at Narcissa wand that blended in almost completely with the ground.
Wormtail put his hands on Lexis back, pushing her just enough so she’d only have to stick her hand inches from her face. Grabbing Narcissa's wand she turned falling on her back and causing Wormtail to go flying with a squill, hitting the wall.
Narcissa stood looking defenseless at Lexi who pointed the wand up at Narcissa.
“Now now Lexi, you don’t wanna do this, he’ll kill you, he’ll kill both of us if you do that,” Narcissa put her hands up in the air.
Lexi used her left hair, pinning herself up and helping herself up to the ground, shaking her head.
“I can’t do this anymore,” Lexi shook her head harder, pointing the wand straight ahead, it was the first time she’d stood up by herself, her legs felt like spaghetti as she slowly backed away. “I’m sorry,” Her voice cracked as she looked at the door, her freedom.
“Go,” Narcissa whispered putting her hands down. “Go and run, the bus will find you, I wish you the best of luck,”
Lexi dropped the wand, pivoting on her feet quickly. Narcissa took off running towards Lexi, grabbing her wand, pointing it quickly infront of her, the door swung open and Lexi was hit with fresh hair.
Lexi hadn’t look back, she took off running, using all the adrenaline that rushed through her body, she was scared as it was completely dark outside, unknowing of where her wand was, if she even had a wand anymore.
“Get back here!” Narcissa called out, smiling inside, knowing what she had done was good, knowing eventually that if Lexi hadn’t given them what they wanted, and no one seemed to care for her, they would have killed her.
“What have you done,” Wormtail mumbled standing in the middle of the room, Narcissa shot her head around, she felt guilty for what she was about to do, but she had a family to protect.
“What have you done!” She spit out pointing her wand towards Wormtail. “You let her go, LUCIUS!”
Soon footsteps grew lounder, Draco and Lucius entered the room, followed my Voldemort, Bellatrix and the death eater gang.
“Where is she!” Voldemort yelled walking passed everyone, he approached Narcissa, then turned his head to wormtail.
“He let her go, ran right into me, and didn’t catch her, she’s gone my lord,” Narcissa shot her head down, Wormtail quivered in fear, unable to comprehend any words.
Lexi on the other hand, she couldn’t see as well, especially in the dark, but she was running down a long hill, coming to a small village, and what she could see, a purple bus.
“Bus for the stranded witches and wizards,” Stanley Shunpike said standing outside the bus handing on. “What are you doing here?”
Lexi looked up at the boy, taking a look around, she could see a bit clearer with the lights from the busses.
“Please help me,” Lexi whimpered walking towards Stanley who nodded his head confused.
“Where are you going my dear?” He asked grabbing her hand lightly and helping her on the bus, now seeing how dirty she was, her hair was a dark brown color, nothing like her golden locks before, dirt covered her whole body, clothes ripped to shreds, and filled with bruises.
“Sirius, Sirius Black,” Lexi whispered, Stanly looked at her, cocking his head.
“You don’t look so good miss,” That was the last thing he had said to Lexi before she fell forward, Stanley catching her in his arms. “Contact the Aurors, we’ve got a problem, He placed Lexi on the bed and the bus began driving.
“Lexi wait please!” Regulus Black cried out running after Lexi who was about to get off the train, he grabbed her arm pulling her back.
“Reggie what the hell?!” Lexi yelled looking at him, he pushed her alone in a cart, locking the door. “What are you doing?” She crossed her arms.
“I need you to bring me home with you, secretly, you’ve got a protection charm on your house don’t you?” Regulus asked looking around, he looked nervous as it is.
“You think that’ll stop your mom from finding you, Reg I can’t and you know it, Dumbledore would have my head if I had you with me, I already have Sirius,”
Regulus said shaking his head and leaning against the door. “I can’t go home, I can’t, you don’t know what they’re plotting, its horrible and i’m sixteen, I don’t wanna do it anymore,”
Lexi looked out the window, she saw Sirius talking to her parents, he had a big grin on his face, then a smile, Walburga stood tapping her foot on the ground, shaking her head and looking around.
“How are you going to get passed your mom?” Lexi asked turning back to Regulus.
“James and Remus, they owe me a favour,”
Lexi sighed, shaking her head, she walked towards Regulus then took him into a hug, wrapping her arms around him.
“You know i’d do anything for you Regulus, anything,” She whispered in his ear, stoking the back of his head.
“Thank you, so much Lexi,” The two had bonded more over the past week, more than they had in almost seven years, had only he known he wouldn’t be seeing Lexi in a week.
James and Remus jumped off the train when Regulus nodded to him. They both smirked as they strutted over to Walpurga who shook her head.
“Hey Mrs Black,” James smiled crossing his arms. “I hear Regulus is already on the other side of Kings cross, something about chasing a half blood away, wanted us to tell you,”
Remus nodded his head. “You should be proud of your son, those half bloods well tell you,”
Regulus had Lexis hood on, drapped over his head, all they had to do was get t her parents, who was already looking at the two confused.
“We’re kidnapping him, go,” Lexi chuckled, looking over at James and Remus. “Just toss your stuff in my room, Sirius you’re welcome,” Lexi planted a kiss on Sirius cheek then turned to walk towards James and Remus

“What do you mean my son is chasing a half blood away?” Walpurga asked then looked at Lexi. “Hello Baller, since your reasonable, do you know where my son is?”
Lexi smiled looking over and James and Remus, then back at Walpurga. “Heard he went to America, fancied a girl there” She shrugged her shoulder with a smile.
“No no I heard he went to Paris, chasing a muggle girl,” Remus bursted into laughter ter elbowing James.
“You both are so wrong, he went to China, chasing a muggle boy,” The three turned into laughter, making Walburga turn red with anger.
“If I find out you three have something to do with my son's disappearance, i’ll have your heads!”
Lexi took James and Remus hand, giggling as she walked back to her mom who shook her head.
“You guys are going to get in trouble one day you know, real trouble,”
