Taken Blissfully

It was a cold and dark outside as it is every night during winter, but on this night in particular there was eerie feeling in the air. I stepped out of my freezing hiding spot from under Harry’s invisibility cloak and lit a small fire with my wand on some nearby twigs. This has become a nightly routine for me since the war ended . It seem as though I can’t go to sleep with stepping outside. It was always so peaceful at night and I would come and think but tonight I couldn’t seem to get one straight thought formed in my head. I felt a pair of cold dark eyes burning into my head. I wasn’t going to let whoever it was watching the pleasure of knowing how uncomfortable (and scared) they were making me feel.

I wrapped the invisibility cloak around me and tried to make a sneaky retreat to the castle where it was safe. I stepped around the fire and saw a shadow moving through the trees. I turned and in a swiftly tried to sprint to the castle. As I came closer to the castle I turned back to see if the shadow was still there but I found myself running into something and fall hard on my bum. I lost my grip on the invisibility cloak and it fell open as I hit the ground. I looked up to see what I ran into but I wasn’t given a chance. As quickly as I fell I was flipped onto my stomach and restrained so I couldn’t turn back to see my capture.

I tried so hard to turn my head but found it complete useless. I cursed under my breath and tried to move the rest of my body and again it was useless. Suddenly a new darkness fell upon my eyes. I was being blindfolded. I tried to scream (why didn’t I think of that earlier) but I see why now again a failed attempt. Now I was bound, blindfolded and silenced what else could possibly happen, and just then as I was thinking those horrid words it got worse. I felt that horrible tug at my bellybutton as if using a port key and then I fell again harder that the first, but it was warm now.
The floor was hard and probably of stone it was cool but not cold like how it felt on the ground outside. The room (I’m guessing it’s a room hopefully) was warm. I had a strange feeling of security.

Odd I’m bound, blindfolded and silenced but yet I feel safe where could I be. Oh no I’m going to be tortured oh Merlin no please their going to kill me, whoever it is oh no please no.

In mid-hysteria my blindfold is being taken off. I try to move the rest of my body before opening my eyes but find it again useless. So I open my eye and try to look around. There is a dim light coming from the fireplace and I see a large hunter green couch facing the stone fireplace. As I suspected the floor was stone a dull grey stone. I see the mouth of bear peeking out from the edge of the couch I’m guessing that it is a bear skin rug that is lying in front of that wonderfully warn fireplace. I can’t seem to physically move my head so I look out of the corner of my eye and spot severally bookcases filled with books. Books of all sizes big, small, thick and thin.
Oh how wonderful if only I could reach out and touch those wonderful books.

My body seems to have gotten used to the cool stone floor because I was no longer chilly. I still have yet to see the shadow that has brought me here. I have a feeling that I am alone because I do not feel the presence of no one else. I let my eyes wonder some more but other than the couch, the rug and the bookcase there really is nothing else in the room other than me still bound and silenced but at least I can see. I try to clear my head I mean I’m not going anywhere might as well get so sleep if I can. At least I’m alone.
