was I really seeking good or just seeking attention

Cassie glanced at Lyssa, feeling sorry for the girl. Because she knew that if her parents had been there (which they never would have been) they would have done anything to help her. She glanced away from Lyssa and her eyes rested on Voldemort. "What do you want?" She snarled at him ignoring the clenching of her stomach.

"Simple. I want the Order to know that no matter who it is that opposes me or what age they are that I will punish them."

"You think that's going to make them stop trying?" Cassie asked him. "It's really all the more reason to try harder. Wouldn't you think?"

Lyssa made herself nod in agreement with Cassie, because it was more than likely true.

"People are going to keep fighting till your dead," Cassie said. "Then people will end up fighting to their deaths," Voldemort said.

"They'd be dying for a good cause," Lyssa said impulsively. "Anything is worth it to stop you."

"And it's better to die fighting than sitting in the back row as a coward, though," She glanced around the room. "I doubt your minions would agree."

Voldemort scowled, having had enough of their backtalk. He looked at the two holding Cass's and Lyss's arms. "Take them back to the cellar. You know what to do after that."

The two Death Eaters nodded and pulled the girls out of the room. "Well that was fun," Cassie said dryly as they were pushed back into the cellar.

Lyssa, however, was silent, looking at the two girls who hadn't left again yet. "What...did he mean by you two knowing what to do...?" she asked, fearing the answer.

Regan smirked at her. "Weren't you listening?" She asked with a raised eyebrow. "no matter who it is that opposes me or what age they are that I will punish them." She quoted looking at the two girls. Cassie's eyes widened for a moment, understanding what he had meaned by that.

Lyssa tried not to look scared. "So, you would really hurt students...?"

Regan snorted. "What do you expect us to do? Put you in detention?" She asked sneeringly.

Lyssa didn't comment on it. "So," Lilith said, looking at Regan. "Where do you think we should start?"

Regan glanced at Lilith. "I don't know," She said grinning. She glanced at the two girls. "What do you think?" She asked them.

"You could just not start at all..." Lyssa suggested. Lils scoffed. "Where's the fun in that?"

"Maybe we could start somewhat mildly, but not much, and just get more and more painful as it goes along?" Regan suggested thoughtfully.

Lils nodded in agreeance to this. "Sounds like a plan to me."

"So what spell do you think?" Regan asked her.

"Hmm," Lils muttered. "Standard spells then working our way up?"

"Sounds like a plan to me," Regan replied smirking at the two girls who were doing their best not to seem scared.

Lyssa bit her bottom lip, looking at the two girls in apprehension.

Regan pointed her wand at the girls murmuring a spell under her breath, a spell that Cassie hadn't heard of before. Though it suddenly felt as if something was pushing lightly down on her windpipe. She looked quizzically at Regan. "Oh you'll find out the effects in the next, however many hours," She grinned. "Coming Lilith?" She asked turning away from the girls.

Lyssa watched them leave then looked at Cassie. "What did they just do?" she asked, feeling it too.

"I don't know, what does she mean we'll feel it in however many hours, i'm feeling whatever it is now."
