RP one million and seventeen; (26)

Cassie went back to her room sometime later wondering if this war was ever going to bloody end.

Lyssa had fallen asleep just before Cassie had left. When she woke up the next morning, she was still sore and stuff. Her mum was in her room, looking as though she was getting some stuff together. Lyssa guessed it was for her...

A few days later Cassie and Lyssa found themselves standing (or well kneeling (bleak)) in front of Voldemort. "I have a proposition for both of you, though there is no refusing." That made Cassie's stomache clench. He had saidthe same thing beforeforcing her to become a Death Eater. "I want you to join the Order Of The Phoenix, and report back to me any information you gather."

"They...they wouldn't let us in....we're too young..." Lyssa muttered, fighting the want to wince. Her mum was going to have a fit when she learned that Lyssa was out of bed.

"Addedwith the fact that we'veboth been herre for months." Cassie replied feeling slightly irritated. "And that I was captive and then aren't, I can sooo see that going down well. 'Hey McGonagall, yeah I was being held captive but you know Voldemort for some randomly weird reason let me free. Oh wait, no the reason was so that I could spy on you and probably get you all killed. yeah.'"

"Yeah and that too..." Lyssa agreed.

Voldemort flicked his wand causing pain to burn across Cassie's mark. It was kind of like crucio but different. She gasped and held her arm protectivly into her cheast but it still continued to burn. He flicked his wand and the pain stopped but her mark still ached slightly. "I will not be adressed in that way," He snapped at Cassie who looked up at him glaring. The little that she had changed completly unraveling now but held in her want to yell at him.

"I'm sorry to say, but the chances of this actually working are slim to none..."

Voldemort looked at her, taking his eyes off Cassie who was still nursing her arm. The pain had been unbelivavly painful and it was all directed at the one place. "They know you apose me thanks to you antics while you were back at school, and you both can be quite gifted when you do as your told. Try and do not fail."

Lyssa sighed. "Fine," she muttered, then even quieter, "but when this goes wrong don't say I didn't warn you."

"It won't go wrong and if it does the both of you will find yourselfs under very dire consequences." Someone's cocky Cassie thought to herself while sending a glare at the Dark Lord.

Lyssa frowned, but didn't say anything. She didn't want to tick him off, still having not completely recovered from the last time yet.

"And what if we refuse?" Cassie challanged.

"You don't have that choice." (yes, it fails, i'm sorry)

"But what if we do?" "You will both find yourselves being only childs."

Lyssa stared at him. "Y-you wouldn't dare hurt Draco..."

He just looked at her clearly stating that he did not care if Draco got hurt. The two were dismissed and told that they had until the end of the weak to secure themselves a position in the Order's ranks.

Once out of the room, Lyssa leaned on the wall, since she ought not be walking around on her own or at all at the moment, but was forced to anyway. "This is never going to work...." she muttered.

"And we're screwed if it doesn't, we're also screwed if it does. Great. I hate lose-lose situations." Cassie sighed and made a face.

"Me too," Lyssa said. Then she frowned. "I need to get back to my room before mum notices I'm missing." Then she thought about the stairs..."Ugh."

"Yeah and we're going to need a way to contact the Order aswell. Guh." Cassie made a face. "Stupid fricken Death Eaters."

"This is going to be interesting..." Lyssa said, as they went toward the stairs. She looked at them, made a disgruntled noise, and frowned.

"Need some help?" Cassie asked her thinking sbout how annoying the Hogwarts stairs had been for her when she had been beaten up. "I suppose we can write a letter...bleh."

Lyssa nodded at Cassie. Then she said, "We could write McGonagall I suppose. But we'll need a story as to why you're not captive anymore and stuff like that."

"Yeah," Said Cassie with a frown. "We're going to need to come up for an idea for that." Cassie helped her freind up the stairs and the two ofthem went to Lyssa's room. Where they encountered a very annoyed looking Narcissa. "Andjust where were you?" She asked Lyssa giving Cassie a distrustful look probably thinking she was behind it.
