it's only fire, it's only blood (cord, liam, elaine, dom)

[Deleted]

Elaine expected the onslaught of spells headed her way. She knew the pretty little kids would want to play some more, to avenge the mudblood. She was also unsurprised by the little Weasleys scream. In fact, she found herself laughing at the sound of it. "Any time you wanna jump in boys," she called back to the two masked men behind her.

In a manner of seconds both Liam and Dom cast spells at her. She, having expected this, knew she had to pick one. She ducked as they shot, choosing to take Liams spell and letting Doms go over her head to destroy a wall behind her. As for Liams spell, as she ducked she rolled so it would catch her in the back. Her cloak burst into flames and she yelped as she moved to shrug it off.

She knew what she had to do, it would just take a little... fanangling. She turned swiftly to one of the men, "get the girl out of my way," she gestured to Dom and the man rushed forward...

As for the other man, he headed toward Liam and Cordelia. "Don't kill them!" Elaine called, hoping they'd listen. She wanted them to live through this. She wanted them to remember what they'd seen.

She wanted everyone to know what she'd done.

Liam screamed as the flames on his clothing started spreading. He jerked his coat off and flung it away. He stared at Elaine, she was fine. She was fine.


How could she be fine when Ethan was dead. He screamed again in fury and pain. The flames had spread to the rest of his clothing. He rolled over quickly, back and forth. Then he ran into a shoe, the flames flickering out. He looked up, bleary eyed from tears. A man was standing there his wand pointing at Cord, but his eyes on Liam. 


No. He would not hurt Cord too. No.


He did the only thing his muddle mind could do. He bit the guys leg. He bit it hard and then brought his legs around to knock the guy's knees out from behind. He gritted his teeth as his injured leg hit the man's bones. The man dropped, tripping over Liam and hitting his head on ground.

dom watched elaine duck just in time and her spell obliterated the wall behind the girl. she almost screamed in frustration. the flames in the corner of her eye drew her attention to the fact that liam's robes were on fire. her eyes widened a little as she raised her wand and made to shoot water at them, her attention off elaine for only a second until she heard the words "get the girl out of my way" her head snapped up and her eyes narrowed on the thug that was coming toward her. they needed to end this. get rid of the two thugs so they could have a chance at stopping elaine from escaping. she needed to pay for what she did to ethan and dom was determined she'd have a hand in it. "sectumsempra!" she slashed her wand twice in the air, the incantation exiting her lips as she stepped forward watching the spell hit the masked man and she saw the gashes appear on his body. one across his neck and the other across his chest. she breathed out as she watched him drop to the ground. she felt a flash of guilt at it, what if she'd killed him .. what!? what the hell was she thinking. she steeled her grip on her wand and stepped toward elaine, raising her wand again, ready for whatever else was thrown at her as she tried her hardest to keep herself composed as she kept seeing ethan's dull and lifeless body in her mind, but that just fuelled her anger more.

"What the...?" Elaine muttered as she saw Liam bite one of the men. That was a pretty strange thing to do, but effective. She made note of it. Anyway, she had other things to worry about. Dom was a little firecracker and used a pretty dark curse on the other man who fell in pain. Elaine rolled her eyes as the Weasley turned toward her, wand extended. Elaine held her hands up for a brief moment, as if giving into surrender. "Aw, you are just precious. Honestly, I've never seen someone so... innocent," she cooed, taking one step... two steps closer to the girl. "I can see that fire in your eyes. It's impressive, I have to say. I only hope you put it in the right pla- Crucio!" mid-sentence she casually cast her spell at Dominique.

She then ran to Liam and Cordelia, swiftly stomping on Liams wand hand. "Sectumsempra," she muttered, her wand aimed at the Blonde Hufflepuff this time as she twisted her shoe into Liams hand. She bent over to him, "I'd watch it if I were you, Davies. Rumor has it people with unfinished business come back as Ghosts. Wouldn't want Ethan seeing you snogging his girl now that he's dead, would you?" she twisted her foot one more time as her wand aimed back at Dom without even turning her face from Liam, "Flipendo," If it worked, Dom would go flying backward.

She stepped off Liams hand, crossing to the man who had fallen beside him and kicking him, "get up. We're leaving." The man stirred and started to come to but Elaine didn't wait. She didn't want her little friends to make any more attack moves on her. She aimed at Liam once more, "Crucio," as the three students screamed, tried to fight back and what have you- Elaine was casually walking toward Ethans body.

She bent down to him, lifting a hand to brush the hair out of his face. "Come on, Ethan. Time to show the Headmaster what we're really made of," she muttered a nonverbal 'wingardium leviosa' and stood as Ethans body lifted into the air. She dropped him into the arms of the man who was now conscious and following behind her. She walked straight out of the hallway, turning a corner without even looking at the three broken students behind her. If they came after her, she and her attacker would be long lost in a crowd of other masked people, heading toward their escape...

Awareness of he scene around him increased. Dom was screaming, Elaine had said something and then Dom had started screaming. The man he tripped was not moving in front of him. He gripped his wand tighter, how had this even happened. Just five minutes ago Ethan was alive, Dom was not experiencing the torture curse and he was getting ready to talk to Ethan, standing on both legs. Now... everything was so wrong!

He felt something on his wrist. He looked over and saw Elaine's foot, as she pressed down on it his wrist his hand opened. His eyes widened as he looked at her. But she wasn't looking at him. She was looking toward Cord. No! Not Cor--- The curse was out of her mouth before he could finish his thought. He wanted to go to her, to help her.
"Leave her alo--" but even as he moved Elaine's foot was restrictive, twisting down harder. 

"I'd watch it if I were you, Davies. Rumor has it people with unfinished business come back as Ghosts. Wouldn't want Ethan seeing you snogging his girl now that he's dead, would you?" she said. As her foot twisted on his wrist, causing him to cry out in pain, she pointed her wand at Dom and shouted a spell at her. 

Thoughts raced through his mind. He was going to tell Ethan, that was why he was here in the first place. The thought of Ethan coming back and finding out that way.... Then she was gone. The pressure was off of his wrist, her footsteps were trailing off in the distance. But he heard her say one more thing.
"Crucio."

Then the pain hit.
