Whirlwind {OPEN}

[minnieweasley]

Minnie struggled against her binds but to no prevail. A man approached her, grinning wickedly. A knife gleamed in his hand. Minnie clenched her teeth as he put the knife to her throat. Just before he cut her neck a figure knocked him to the ground. She stared in disbelief as the figure wrestled with the follower. She saw the figure knock the follower on the head. The figure lifted their wand and broke her binds. The figure approached her. It was...

It was Brandon! He smiled at Minnie. He had been wandering the halls and saw this. It just so happened that the girl of his dreams was here. "Hi" he stammered. She was so cute.

[minnieweasley]

"Uh, hi yourself," she said, her cheecks turning red.She bit her lip nervously."Minnie Weasley," she said as she held out her hand. "And - thanks." She heard voices nearby, though. She peered around the corner to see Callum and Jasmine on the ground, Sierra hovering near them.

Sierra whipped out a gleaming knife from her robes as she approached Jasmine. She dug it into Jasmine's arm. "You - really - thought - you - would - get - a-way, didn't you?" Sierra snickered. Between words she tore the knife down Jasmine's arm. "You - really - thought - you - could - beat us, did you?" She began hacking at Jasmine with the knife at every little bit of flesh she could get to. "That was a mistake," she hissed at Jasmine. She whipped out her wand and with a gentle wave and flick she cast the Cruciatus curse on Callum.

Jasmine barely clenched hr teeth. She could handle pain, she has handeledd pain before. All she had to do was think of when it would be over. But when she saw Cal in pain, she wanted to scream and gut Sierra. "Wow" she sneered. "You wouldn't just kill him before my eyes or before mine. You perfer torture, but no torture ever amounts to losing one's true love before their eyes" said Jasmsine simply. Sierra had interfeared with something and she could barely feel. Jasmine kicked Sierra in the gut and kicked her head. She punched her in the face and gave her a karte snap kck in the gut again. She ran to Cal. She transformed and flew off. Cal right behind her.

But it wasn't over yet. Sierra siezed two knives out of her robes and thrust them into the air. There was a streak of silver through the air before the knives hit their targets and Callum and Jasmine dropped to the floor. Sierra took slow, long strides toward her prey. "So young, so innocent, so... stupid," Sierra spoke to Jasmine. "No matter how hard you try, now matter how many people you bring into this game, you'll always lose. And everyone close to you will die, and it'll be all your fault, won't it? You could've surrendered and let yourself die, but you had to be greedy and let your friends take the blame for it, didn't you? So selfish! They'll protect you - maybe. And only for so long. Eventually, friends for you will become extinct. And you'll be all alone and you'll need to fight for yourself, without any help. And Mummy and Daddy won't be there to protect you, will they? Because they're dead... dead! Dead, dead, dead, dead, dead! I hope you like the sound of the word, because soon, you'll be just that - dead. But look at the bright side - at least you'll be able to join your parents. First, of course, you'll need to watch everyone else die before your eyes." Sierra slipped into a shadow of invisibility and levitated Jasmine and Callum into the air, before throwing them against opposite walls of the corridor. She casually took out her wand and once again cast the Cruciatus curse on Callum. She smirked at Jasmine's expression. She removed from her robes yet another knife, and, returning to her visible state, pressed the tip against Callum's chest. She glanced towards Jasmine. "Just remember - it's all your fault."

[minnieweasley]

Minnie couldn't take it any longer. She whipped out her wand, stepped forward, and cried: "Stupefy!"

[santimeister]

Sierra quickly cast a shield charm and the spell ricocheted off of it and flew back towards Minnie.

[minnieweasley]

Minnie narrowly dodged it and instead the jet of red light shattered a window. She knew she shouldn't have done anything.... She should've just hid in the shadows and avoided danger.

[santimeister]

Sierra started to snigger wickedly. She snapped her fingers, and two followers stepped out of their hiding place in the shadows, each armed with knives. As they stepped up to Jasmine and Callum and held knives against their throats, chains slithered from Sierra's wand like a snake, and fastened themselves around Callum and Jasmine so tight they would be nearly suffocating. She teleported next to Minnie, who had been standing, frozen in fright, the entire time. "Did you want something?"

[minnieweasley]

Minnie knew there had to be some sort of trick to this; it was too easy. But she couldn't miss out on having one tiny second of victory.... "Yeah, I do." She raised her fist and as quick as she could thrust it towards Sierra's face.

[santimeister]

But instead of colliding with Sierra's face, Minnie's hand slammed into the knife that Sierra held up at the last second.

[minnieweasley]

Minnie scowled and lowered her hand to her side, blood trickling down her fingers and dripping to the floor.

[santimeister]

"Oops," Sierra said in a phony sympathetic tone, "So sorry." She added an insincere look that quickly changed to a wicked grin. In a flurry of black, swirling robes, she was holding Minnie up against a wall by a knife on her throat.

[minnieweasley]

Minnie gasped for air. What was it with the followers and knives?! She felt the pressure of the knive increase as she was lifted. Now she was supported by a wall and a knife. Great. A droplet of blood oozed onto the blade and Minnie found that she couldn't breathe at all. She was going to die from suffocation, and no one would mourn her death because there was always someone they cared more about, and in the end they didn't care for her at all. Maybe she should just die. Maybe, Minnie thought, she should just surrender to Sierra and let her kill her. No matter how painful it may be. Then again, Sierra would take so much time someone was bound to save her and her plans would be ruined.
