Where The Feeling is Criminal

Lani watched as Taylor finished off what she'd brought her. "Just so you know," she said lightly. "Those are laced with Veritaserum. And withholding information is considered lying to the potion."

Taylor narrowed her eyes at the other girl, but then what did she expect. Taylor frowned, wondering what Lani was going to ask. She hissed under her breath.

"So," Lani said casually, "once I'm sure the potion's taken affect get ready to spill your guts. Now, tell me your name age and birthday. Try to lie or hold it back. I need to see if the potion is working yet or not."

Taylor hissed at her again and despite the fact that she tried not to say so she said. "Taylor Marice, twenty, eight of march." She scowled again, she did not like being forced to talk. Not one bit.

Lani smirked as Taylor answered the question/statement. "Excellent," she muttered. "Now," she looked at Taylor with a smirk. "What are the Order's plans at the moment?"

Taylor gave her a look of utter loathing. "Recruiting more people, and trying to get others to believe that Voldemort has returned." It was the truth; maybe not the full truth but it was the truth. It was something that Order was planning.

Lani maed a thoughtful noise. "Anything you're leaving out?" she asked.

"No," Taylor said, she wasn't very high up so didn't really know anything until right before it happened. In case something like this happened.

"What are the names of the members that you know?" Lani then asked, having no reason to assume Taylor was lying.

Taylor then had an inward battle over the veritiserim. She didn't want to say a thing but the potion was forcing her to. Though forcing her mouth shut the names she knew came out as a incoherent mumble.

Lani frowned at Taylor. "Repeat those for me? And could you speak clearly this time?"

"No and No," Taylor said crossing her arms at Lani, she was going to do her best not to tell any infomation. She didn't want the Death Eaters finding out anything if she could help it.

Lani scowled. "Allow me to rephrase my question then. State the names of any and all Order members that you and speak clearly as you do so, please?" There was no fighting that one.

Taylor didn't need to answer clearly, but she did need to answer. So she did, the answer coming out incoherent again.

"You're insufferable," Lani snapped annoyed and drawing her wand. "I'll give you one more chance. Say the names, and say them where I can understand them, or face the consequences."

"Why would I tell you?" Taylor snapped at her. "It's you are your merry gang's fault that I'm an orphan and that I need to look after the twins instead of out living my own life. Why would I aid the organisation that killed my parents?"

"The Death Eaters weren't even around back then," Lani said. "So either you have your facts wrong, or you have your facts wrong."

"They were around, just Voldemort wasn't."

Lani had already known this, she just for some reason hadn't wanted to believe it. It almost made her want to stop what she was doing. She wasn't a homicidal-type person. She'd just had the misfortunate of being exposed to the wrong people at the wrong times.

Taylor rubbed at her eye, even though it had been a few years, she still teared up slightly when one mentioned her parents. She turned her head away from Lani and looked at the wall on the left side of the room.

Lani frowned. "Damn you and damn my heart," she said, voice huffy. Then she sighed. "I'm not cut out for this," she muttered a second later. "You know exactly how to pull at my heartstrings, whether you actually know me or not, and now I feel bad." She waved her wand, although not to hurt Taylor. Instead the room was soon equipped with a proper bed and a shelf of books. "Can't let you leave, but I can make it better. Although, if someone were to find out about this, then I'm dead, quite literally."

Taylor didn't say anything, she in fact just ignored Lani and continued to stare at the wall on the left side of the room. The book shelf having appeared on the right side of the room, though Taylor didn't see this as she was staring at the wall. She did see the bed appear out of the corner of her eye though.

Lani then left the room, not having any reason to be in there at the moment.

Taylor brought her knees up to her chest and leaned back into the wall. Not getting up from where she had been sitting.

Lani went back to her flat. Once inside she sighed and ran her hand through her hair. This was ridiculous. What the hell was wrong with her? She should have already had the information. Had it been anyone else and she would have.
