Sorry to keep you waiting...

Part Four
Alicia

I felt myself land outside the flat in the dimly lit corridor.

“Al-” Ron said, his voice louder in the narrow corridor. I clapped a hand over his mouth, glaring at him.

“Shh! I had flickers of someone waiting inside for Sam- they know she knows Hermione” I whispered, glaring back at the door.

“How do you know they’re not on our side?” Harry whispered as my hair turned black and my eyes brown.

“When have I ever been wrong?” I muttered and he shrugged.

“Want us to vanish?” I grinned at Harry to answer his question. He and Jamie used the Disillusion Charm to vanish. Ron stood there, staring out the small window until someone, probably Harry, sighed and whacked him hard on the head so that he disappeared too. I nodded and flicked a hand at the door, opening it. I pretended to slip something into my pocket, giving the guys time to get inside. Jamie brushed my cheek as he passed. I stepped over the threshold and closed the door, shrugging out of the jacket I’d conjured outside. I didn’t look at the sofa, where three indents had appeared. I threw my jacket into a chair and headed for the light switch.

“Doctor Samantha Molloy, I presume?” I froze in the middle of the room and turned towards the voice, anger seeping through me. “If you tell me where the Mudblood Granger and her friends are, I won’t kill you”

“You couldn’t even give me a nosebleed, Parkinson, let alone kill me” I saw one of the indents vanish from the sofa as I clapped and the lights flickered on. Pansy just stood there, staring at me. “Me, on the other hand, I could kill you in a heartbeat” I returned to the red hair and blue eyes. Pansy’s confusion changed to hatred.

“Starlight” She said, pointing her wand at me. I crossed my arms over my chest.

“Where are my kids?” I asked, stepping forwards.

“Why would I know anything about your brats?” She spat and I stepped forwards again, my arms falling to my sides.

“Easy does it... Don’t lose your temper yet, love” I clapped again, making Harry, Jamie and Ron appear beside me.

“How sweet- your idiotic cousin-in-law,” She looked over at Ron. “Potter,” Harry glared at her. “And your loser of a husband- what? Do you need bodyguards? Are you scared?” I forgot about magic and lunged towards her. Three pairs of hands pulled me back. Pansy laughed.

“Shut your face, Parkinson” Ron said, shaking with anger.

“Why don’t you? I heard that you married Mudblood Gra-” I sprung again, slipping through Jamie’s fingers. I rammed into her, knocking her back into the wall.

“ALICIA!” Jamie shouted as I punched her in the face, breaking her nose. “She’s making sure you lose your temper! Calm down!” He pulled me away and I looked up at him innocently. He raised a eyebrow and I pulled a face.

“Fine...” I turned round and Pansy flinched, making me smirk.

“You know, Daniels, you seem to lose family a lot- three little brats shouldn’t matter to you, just add them to the list like your brothers, sisters and parents- maybe your blood-traitor of a husband can join them too!” This time it was Jamie who charged at her. Harry and Ron jumped in front of him, holding him back within seconds.

“I swear, if you ever mention my family like that again, I kill you” I hissed. She spat at me. Ron dived and missed me as Jamie broke free of Harry.

“Er- I think we should pull him away” I heard Ron say as I punched Pansy repeatedly in the face.

“Good idea- I don’t fancy getting cursed” Harry answered and I saw Jamie disappear from my sight. Pansy noticed too and started to fight back, trying to knock me over by kicking my leg.

“Let.Me.Go” Jamie said as I hit Pansy in the chest with my knee, sending her backwards.

“No- let it go! Let her get it out of her system- seriously, do you want that to be you?” Ron said over the squeals of pain issuing from Pansy.
