As long as you like it Lilly, there is no need to moan... You seem to be m only reader at the mo... Unless no- one else is posting... Ooh... I might be adding you in again if that's okay?

I printed off Chapters 1- 17 earlier today and gave them to my English teacher as my coursework... She wasn't very happy with me... She only wanted the first chapter... And then my Technology Construction teacher told me to et it copyrighted and to see if I can get it published!?! I said no... XD

Maybe if I wrote a story all by myself and then got Lilly to check it... Naa! I'd never pull it off!

Chapter 18

Landing was easy. The hard part was trying to stop Alicia. It took all six of them to stop her running in to the building and pinning Snape up the wall. She did blow half the front of the house off though...

''SNAPE!'' She screamed as Jamie flung his arms round her waist and Harry grabbed her left wrist while Ron grabbed the right.

Hermione and Ginny had moved so that they were standing in front of her while Luna rested a restraining hand on her shoulder.

''LET GO! SNAPE! COME AND FACE ME! JAMIE, LET ME GO'' She shouted as she fought against them.

''NO ALICIA! YOU DON'T WANT TO DO THIS!'' Jamie shouted back. ''THIS ISN'T LIKE YOU!''

She relaxed in their grip and everyone moved away slightly apart from Jamie. As soon as Harry had let go of her wrist, he regretted it. She pushed out with both hands and all six of them flew backwards into the rubble or each other.

Jamie looked up in time to watch Alicia step forward towards the living room.

''ALICIA!'' He called to her but she didn't turn round.

Snape looked up from the lass into the bright light, listening to the yells and shouts coming from the garden without hearing them.

As he went to stand up from the couch, he saw a blonde haired girl walk into the room before everything was a blur. As the girl stepped into the room, he was thrown backwards off the couch and was pinned against the wall behind him.

''Snape...'' He knew this girl. He recognised her voice. She was one of the seven they had to fight, the one who's brother was killed a few weeks ago in front of his eyes.

''Miss Daniels. May I say that Blonde suits you more than the usual red and blue.'' He said as he looked down at her.

''Thank you. Now, if you don't mind, I would like t know why you attacked my house and Family'' She said as she sat down on the arm of a chair opposite him.

''That was our way of making sure we could trust you in the future. Make the wrong choices and people can die. Your brother made the wrong choice by trying to talk to us. Fenrir decided that th Werewolf population was beginning to get over crowded...'' As Snape was talking, Jamie had run into the room, stopping dead as he listened to his teacher talking.

''So you're planning on torturing the rest of them until I do what you want?'' Alicia said calmly as Jamie's temper was growing slowly. He didn't know that he hated the man in front of him this much.

''That would be the plan. Good afternoon Mr. Starlight'' Snape added on at the end of his sentence as he looked over at him slightly.

''Professor, or should I say Death Eater?'' He spat as he glared up at him. Alicia didn't turn to look at him as he spoke. Snape noticed this and his smirk seemed to make Jamie even madder.

''Fighting, are we?'' He said with a slight ring of laughter in his voice. Alicia shook her head and Snape directed his attention back to her.

''Yes. The plan is to use your family to make you choose the path we want. Of course, we will ask first. Call it blackmail if you wish'' He spoke calmly as well. It was like jamie was the only one truly mad in the room.

Outside, Jamie could hear Ginny shouting somthing but was more interested in Harry's shouting.

''JAMIE! SHE'S BLOCKING US! ALICIA'S NOT LETTING US IN!''

Jamie turned to look at Alicia. She seemed oblivious to Harry's shouts whereas Snape seemed to enjoy them.

''What's Potter done Daniels?'' He seemed pleased that Harry wasn't in the room though. ''Can I say that our visit has come at an awkward time? You see, I'm expecting Bella, Cissy and Lucius over shortly''

Alicia smiled. ''I know. I would like to speak to them too... If you don't mind me staying. I'll make sure that the others won't gate crash your party. It will just be Jamie and me'' She said as Jamie turned towards her.

'Have you lost your mind! Outside you wanted to kill him! Now your being polite to him... And can you let th others in now please... I've got a plan...'

A smile appeared on Alicia's face as she looked over the plan in Jamie's mind. Snape looked from her to Jamie and back.

''I don't see why the Dark Lord doesn't keep you Daniels... So much power in a Mudblood... Maybe he could look over that...'' At his words, Alicia's smile vanished and Jamie snapped.

''DON'T YOU DARE SPEAK TO HER LIKE THAT!'' He said as he raised his wand at him. Alicia stood up and walked towards Jamie.

''Calmly... He knows that will never happen'' She said as she rested a hand on his outstretched arm.

''Starlight, it doesn't matter how I speak to her, the last memory of you he will ever have will be your dying moment'' Snape said slowly. Then Alicia snapped.

''NO!'' Before Jamie could stop her, she had raised a hand and directed it towards him. Jamie was thrown backwards as Snape laughed. He hit something that splintered underneath him. Looking down he saw a smashed up table.

''JAMIE! ALICIA!'' Harry's voice sounded behind them, signaling that Alicia's barrier was gone.

Jamie turned round as Ginny, Hermione and Luna entered the room. Looking round at Alicia, he could see what she was about to do in her eyes.

''NEVER THREATEN HIM!''She screeched as she pointed a large pile of bricks and rubble, which rose into the air behind her.

Jamie scrambled to his feet and ran towards the girls shouting. ''LOOK AWAY! DON'T WATCH!'' As he reached them, he turned back to Alicia. ''ALI! NO, DON'T DO IT! NOTHING WILL HAPPEN TO ME! DON'T-'' He cringed and closed his eyes as Alicia's upturned hands opened and the fly debris flew at a now scared Snape. ''Do it...'' He finished his sentence as he felt Luna's grip on his arm tighten slightly.

Alicia stood with her back to the others. Her shoulders were shaking and her head was hanging. Luna stepped forwards quickly as she started swaying.

''It's okay Alicia... It's okay...'' She said as the girl blacked out in her arms.

''We need to leave now before the others come...'' Jamie said as he helped Luna get Alicia out the room. Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny followed behind them. None of them looked backed.

Maybe in the next post I'll add a few new (And old) faces... Not sure yet though...
