Dusk nodded her head as Katie asked if she could play. Katie never got to play with their victims, and so Dusk felt it was about time that her loyal follower was allowed her fun. She smirked at the thoughts of what Katie would do, and carving something into Parker seemed like a plenty good idea.

She watched with disgust as Pyxis pathetically went over to Parker and spoke to him softly. There moment of sweetness made bile rise in her mouth and she flicked her wand, sending Pyxis flying back against the wall. She chained her to it as Pyxis collided with the wall and then turned her gaze to Katie. "Do what you wish with him, unless," she now looked at Pyxis.

"You want to answer these questions. Changed your mind yet, Pyxis dear, are you going to give me what I want?" She strode over to Pyxis and tipped her head up with the tip of her wand. "Or are you going to watch him suffer?"

Pyxis didn't want this. She wanted it all to go away, she'd never done anything to deserve all this. She'd lived her life, was raising her dead sister's nephew, why should she have all of this? Her eyes widened as she thought of Noah - alone. Who was taking care of him? She could only hope that Alcyone had taken initiative. What if she died here? What would happen to Noah? He would've lost his parents, he would've lost his aunty, he would have no more family members to go to. And she'd just figured out how she could stop him from getting taken to an orphanage! She let out a sob and gripped Parker's hand in an almost deathly way, like she was going to die if she didn't hold his hand. "P-Parker, Noah, where is Noah? Who has him?" She choked out. Not her nephew, she couldn't bear the thought of him alone. She was trembling now, scared, worried, and she felt weak.

She was Pyxis Wilson, Pyxis Wilson never felt weak, but she did now. The pain in her back was to there, and every movement would make it ache. She shifted her position to hold Parker and effectively shield him from them, when she felt a searing pain in her back and let out a cry, hand whipping around to touch to the skin. When she pulled the hand back to stare at it, her fingers were covered in blood. She winced. She wouldn't let that bitch write anything on Parker, she'd rather die. She took in a shaky breath and let go of his hand, spinning around despite the pain and sitting firmly in front of him - a shield. Because Parker didn't deserve to be hurt, she would give them what they wanted. She was going to tell them so, when suddenly she was flung into the wall.

A groan of pain left her lips as her head smashed against the back of the wall and her back ached even more where the skin had been carved into. Everything swam in her vision and she felt her head droop as she was chained to the wall. There was a low thudding in her ears, and it took a few seconds for her to regain her vision and her sense of hearing. She looked across the room at Parker and let out a shriek as Dusk allowed Katie to do what she wanted to Parker. She felt Dusk's wand pressed against her chin, tipping it upwards. She glared at Dusk venomously. She would give them what they wanted. "I will tell you anything, so long as you do not harm him and let me down." She growled.

Parker felt her hand tighten and he tightened his grip even more, neither of them caring if it hurt. It felt like a lifeline that if broken would be the end of them. "Alcyone...I think." He breathed out, realizing it didn't sound very reassuring. He simply didn't know though "He's fine....I promise." He took another breath, still trying to concentrate on stopping his bleeding on his forehead. He kept his hold on her still as she shifted her position. He tensed when she cried out in pain, and still did not dare let go.

But when she let go and turned around, he opened his eyes, startled. He felt his breath catch as he saw her back, bloody and the skin bright red from the marks. He instinctively raised his hand to rest on her mid-back hoping to at least stop the bleeding, muttering harshly, "Pyxis, stop it- you better stop it right now, or so help me-"

He was cut off as she was flung to the wall, with his hand on her back, the force caused him to turn onto his side, facing her. He groaned, feeling slivers of glass from his shirt dig into his skin again. He propped himself up on his elbow, he other hand waving out to try to shove that woman, Katie away. hearing Pyxis' words he yelled. "Pyxis, shut up!! No, don't you dare do this!" He started to try to scramble to his feet, he was not going to not fight back. This was not going to happen. He was not going to be some prisoner of this godforsaken war. And he was not going to lose Pyxis.

Kate smiled as she was given permission to play with their new guest. She walked around him looking for a good place to write her new message. He may not let her talk now but soon she would talk even without his permission. She smiled as she looked at his arms and legs. She could feel the magic from his leg. So this was where Hugo marked him. She shook her head listening to them. She would really do anything for him. The idiots.

She smiled cruelly at both of them. She looked at Parker and shook her head. "Crucio." She said clearly pointing her wand at him. She knew if they wanted Pyxis to talk she would have to keep him alive even if she did want the mudblood dead. She felt evil go though her and her eyes turned black again radiating the coldness in her. The curse was very painful for him. She smirked an evil glint in her back eyes. She stopped the curse and looked at Pyxis. "Are you going to talk?" She asked without waiting for an answer she pointed her wand back at Parker and said again clearly "Curcio."

"Talk or I'm sure I could find something to write on him as well." She said holding her knife out and smiling at her like she was enjoying this, which she was.

Pyxis felt relief course through her as Parker said he was with Noah, and that he was fine. In her panicked state, she didn't take note of how un-assuring those words might sound as she tried to protect Parker. She wished she could shut her eyes, count to three and have everything go away. She would've loved to be by herself, not having to worry about anything other than her job. God, she hated these Dark Ones more than words. She felt an urge to strangle them all rising, but she squashed it down. She just had to protect Parker and figure out how they could get out of here without dying during the task. She grit her teeth and scanned the room, looking for a way out. She saw her wand on the table in the middle of the room, and knew if she could get that she could save them both.

She screamed as Parker was tortured, her eyes blazing with pure rage. She felt as if she were the one in pain. "Deva! Deva H.V. Whie is our leader!" She cried out desperately, sobbing now as he was tortured again. "She works at Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry as the Head of Gryffindor house and the Defense against the Dark Arts professor! Please please, i'll tell you anything, don't hurt him!" She cried out. And then it hit her, and she knew what she had to do. As dangerous as it was, it would be her only choice.

She focused on the ball of rage within her directed at Katie, letting it build up and consume her every thought and feeling. She shut her eyes and focused on spreading the warmth through her body until it was like she was burning. The burning didn't hurt her, as her body was accustomed to it, but this time she let the ball of fire build and build until she felt she could contain it no longer. She began to laugh, because she'd won and they'd lost. Her eyes snapped open and the chains burned away from her hands and legs. She fell to the ground and stood up, confident now. "Oh, Katie~ Didn't your mummy ever teach you not to play with fire?" She let the fire burst forth from her, catching alight the entire room and formed a protective ring around Parker, shoving Katie away from him. She pressed her hands to Dusk's face, burning it enough to distract her before she snatched up her wand and transferred the fire to her non-wand hand. She walked through the fire as if it wasn't there - because for her, it wasn't. She grabbed Parker and waved at them, a smirk on her face. "Tata!" She then pulled him up and turned on her heel, apparating them back to the edge of Hogwarts. Where she passed out from exhaustion.

Parker's trying to scramble up was in vain, as he suddenly felt cramped with unbearable pain. His legs gave out, but he did not scream, he didn't make any sound of pain. He was shaking terribly and let out a groan only when the spell was momentarily lifted. "FUCK YOU" he spat out, "I can do this all da-!" He cut off as she put on the spell again, all of his body felt on fire, every single nerve alight with pain. But he would not give in. There was a point where a person could over come the spell if done enough. He could do it- he'd not give in. As long as Pyxis didn't.

Parker tensed, trying to not writhe in pain, as he heard Pyxis give up the information they wanted, he let himself yell out now, "Damn it! No!" How could she?? He thought she was stronger then that, why would she do that for him?! Now everyone else was in danger. The heat of the pain, seemed to change into a fire-like heat as the spell ended. He curled up in a ball, the ringing in his ears sounding like roaring flames. He felt hands grab him and tug him, and he clenched his hands over his ears, tensing more as he felt them apparate away.

He felt the dirt on his face as he lay on the ground at the outskirts of the castle, the road along to Hogsmeade. He groaned, taking a moment for things to come back into clarity. He suddenly scrambled up on his knees, wavering from dizzyness, phantom pains still causing some spasms. They were out- how the hell- He looked around wildly, seeing Pyx unconscious on the ground. He knelt next to her, a sob escaping as he cupped her face with his hand, sending out all his energy to try to wake her up. He was shaking in pain and anger and weakness. "Pyxis, damn you, how could you-" he said though soft sobs. He leaned his forehead against hers. "What did you do-?" He took in a sharp breath as another spasm wracked him. And he leaned out and yelled out for help, hoping someone nearby might hear them.

Collin was having more fun standing off to the side watching the ladies have all of their fun. It was quite an interesting show, but once they apparated out of there he knew Dusk was going to be a little upset over the whole ordeal.

Collin knew he used have participated a little more, but it excited Collin more to watch.

Storm just stood there and watched she knew lady Dusk would be very angry with her but Storm knew she wasn't the only one watching she had more fun watching and letting the other s have their fun.

Strom watched and was getting excited from watching she just let them have their fun she blinked and continued to watch as she waited for anything else to happen.
