Chapter 26: The Flying Fight
A black haired boy and a blonde haired girl sat together on a pier looking out over the lake. The two talked quietly to one another, but no words could be heard. Suddenly the young boy turned his head towards his companion, showing the outline of a hooked nose and dark eyes. In a daring move, the lad quickly leaned towards her and planted a soft, yet hurried kiss on her cheek; before pulling back just as quickly. The boy blushed slightly, as he smiled awkwardly at the lass. The girl turned her head towards him, smiling softly, with a faint tint of red rising on her cheeks. The setting sun created a silhouette of a delicate nose on the young girl; as well as illuminating her hazel eyes.
'Hazel?' Severus shot up from his lying position on the sofa. He was confused to say the least; the dream was so different from the ones before. His mind raced trying to recall the details of the reverie. The boy was most definitely him, but the girl…he was sure it had been Katherine, but then she turned and he saw hazel eyes, not blue.
As he thought harder, the children in the dream couldn't have been more than eight years of age; and he hadn't met Katherine until the summer of his ninth. Plus the lake looked like the Great Lake, but it couldn't have been. The sun was setting on the wrong side of the lake.
Then their was the stolen kiss. He had never done that either. He had never kissed Katherine until the night of their initiation; not even one as innocent as the boy gave the little girl in his dream.
Severus pinched the bridge of his nose with his thumb and index finger, and closed his eyes as he tried to figure out where the dream had come from. He opened his eyes and looked around the small sitting room. He was alone and Katherine's spot on the sofa was cold; indicating that she had already been up for several hours.
The room was dimly lit as tiny rays of sunlight tried to break through the dark-curtained windows. Severus reached over and picked up his discarded pants off the floor. He quickly put them on, before rising and heading towards the kitchen. There he found Katherine, sitting at the table with paperwork spread out before her.
She tapped her quill absentmindedly and she stared at the pages, that were filled with the flight plans for the coming battle. Severus leaned against the doorframe, crossing his arms over his chest. He watched her silently, as she broke her trance to run her fingers through her hair.
"Something's going to go wrong tonight," Katherine sighed, as she tugged a bit at her hair. "I can feel it."
"Like I said last night," Severus said, as he pushed himself off the frame and went to join her at the table. "Your flight plans are accurate. You will not fail." Katherine sighed heavily again, before letting her hands fall back to the table.
"I've got to do something to keep myself from going insane," Katherine said, as she began gathering up her documents.
"Well, I thought about brewing some elixirs this morning, with the ingredients we gathered in the forest," Severus inquired. "You could join me, if you want."
"I'd love to."

After a full day of brewing, Severus and Katherine decided to finish up a half and an hour before they were expected to meet at Malfoy Manor. Severus' thoughts of the dream from the night before, still weighed on his mind, but not as much as it had during the morning hours.
He found himself easily slipping back into the old routine with Katherine. She became a different person behind a cauldron; more relaxed, more at peace.
But nine o'clock came all too soon, and as soon as they were fully dressed in their Death Eater robes and mask, they departed for headquarters.

"Rabastan. Rodolphus. Mulciber," Katherine shouted over the group, as her and Severus entered the grounds of Malfoy Manor. "A word please." The three men followed Katherine to a secluded part of the gardens, as Severus went to stand beside Avery.
"The Dark Lord picked the right person to lead this mission," Avery said, as the two wizards watched Katherine and the small group discuss formation set up. "She was always good at tactics and flight planning. If it wasn't for her, Slytherin would have never seen a Quidditch cup, especially not five in a row."
"Indeed," Severus agreed quietly.
"She won't fail us," Avery stated, before walking over to Nott and Rookwood. Severus sighed heavily and closed his eyes. Watching Katherine instruct the others brought memories back to when she would drag the entire Slytherin Quidditch team out onto the field every day of the week, and drill them unto it became too dark to see.
"Alright everyone listen up!" Katherine shouted, as the Lestrange brothers and Mulciber came to stand behind her. "We take off in ten minutes. You all know your groups and what the flight plan of each group should be.
"Once we have located Potter, we are to call the Dark Lord, and he and he alone will take care of the boy. We have been instructed to take care of any of the Order members or Aurors involved. Understood?" Severus looked at Katherine, and watched her look out over the group with a satisfied smirk on her face.
"Good. Let's fly!"

"Perfect night for a flight," Avery shouted as the group rose higher and higher into the cloudy night sky.
"Indeed," Katherine said. "Couldn't be any better." Katherine flew slightly ahead of the five groups, guiding her Firebolt into the clouds in the skies above of Little Whinging. Severus flew tensely behind her on her old Nimbus 1700, that he had kept at Spinner's End ever since her capture.
He hated flying. Period. Katherine had always been graceful on one, but he had always felt awkward and out of place. Suddenly Katherine stopped, and hovered in one spot.
"Everyone to your points," Katherine yelled, as the other flew off to take their positions. Severus, Avery and Macnair flew up beside her and watched the skies in the direction towards Potter's safe house. "Everyone ready?"
"Of course Dumbledore," Avery snorted. "Your plans are flawless as usually. It can't fail."
"I should hope not." The group of four continued to hover in the same spot, and constantly watched cloud-littered sky around them.
"Katherine," Severus said, reaching his mind out to hers. "Moody is likely to be a part of the group."
"Your point," Katherine stated dully.
"My point is, is that I do not want you going after him and him alone," Severus mind growled at her. "Keep your mind open to me tonight. We can watch each other's backs easier that way."
"Alright," Katherine sighed inwardly. "Just promise me one thing."
"And what is that?"
"Don't fall off your broom," Katherine smirked. 'The ground is a lot further away being all the way up here.' Severus turned to look at her, raising an annoyed eyebrow in her direction. Even after all these years, she would never let him forget his first time on a broom at school. He had only hovered slightly off the ground, but his broom had other ideas, and had suddenly dropped him to the ground in a heap. It quickly became the focused point for mocking from Potter and Black.
He watched as Katherine's eyes suddenly became focused on a single point in the night sky. Following her glaze, he saw two figures rise into the dark clouds on a broomstick.
"Lumos!" Katherine said, lighting her wand and rising it into the air to signal the other groups. Severus watched as the broom came nearer and nearer. It was Lupin and Potter. He watched Katherine smirk as she saw the boy come into view. "It's almost too easy," she grinned, and waved her wand to signal to begin the attack. But she stopped in half movement, as another broom came into view.
Arthur Weasley and Harry Potter? Severus sighed in relief on the inside; his plan had worked, Mundungus had actually gotten the Order to listen to Severus' polyjuice plan.
"Shit!" Katherine yelled, as a thestral came into view, with Kingsley and another Potter riding on it's back. "ATTACK!" She brandished her wand, and soared off towards the now fourth Potter that appeared with Tonks on a broomstick.
Screams and streams of green light flashed in the night sky as the Death Eaters began the attack on the seven Order members, with their seven Potters. Severus flew off to follow Remus, remembering that the werewolf wasn't as comfortable on a broom either. Suddenly, Selwyn came out of nowhere, and moved ahead of him towards Lupin and the other Potter. Without thinking, Severus raised his wand and pointed it directly at Lupin's back.
"Sectumsempra!" Severus shouted, moving his wand slightly towards Selwyn's wand hand, but at the last second, he was hit from the side. His mask was knocked off and his wand jerked in his hand causing the spell hit the other Potter, slicing his ear clean off.
'NO!' Severus shouted in his mind.
"Severus? What is it?" Katherine ragged voice entered his mind.
"Nothing," Severus answered quickly. "Where are you?"
"Following Hagrid," Katherine stated. Severus stomach sunk, as he blocked the spells that shot around him. They wouldn't put the boy with Hagrid, would they? He looked around and located Katherine flying off after the Care of Magical Creatures professor, and quickly took off as fast as he was able towards her.
Katherine flew as hard as she could, to keep up with the half-giant and the boy, who were riding on a flying muggle machine. Three of the other Death Eaters caught up with her, seeming to have the same idea as her.
The others shot spell after spell towards them, but Katherine remained steady on her course, flying straight towards the muggle contraption.
"Stupefy!" she heard the boy shout, and a bolt of red light shot towards them, causing the four to break apart in order to avoid getting hit. Then, out of nowhere a wall, a solid brick wall, appeared before them.
Katherine and two of the others swerved in time to avoid it, but Jugson was not as lucky; as he smashed head first into it and dropped like a lead weight towards the earth below. Travers held back and dropped out of sight in order to save the man from the fall, as Katherine and the Imperiused Shunpike continued on.
Shunpike shot out another killing curse towards Hagrid, that was answered by another stunning spells from the boy. Suddenly, a great net burst forth from the muggle motorcycle, but they were ready for it this time. The two barely have to swerve to avoid it, and soon Travers, who was now carrying Jugson with him on his broom, managed to catch up with them.
Severus was flying as hard as he could, but couldn't manage to catch up with the others. He heard a bellowing roar, that sounded almost like a dragon, and looked up to see Hagrid's flying motorbike shoot forward like a bullet.
But Katherine, Travers, and Shunpike managed to keep up with them, closing in on the now severed motorbike. Severus caught another figure out of the corner of his eye and turned to find Avery now flying next to him.
Suddenly, another red light burst forth from the boy's wand and hit Travers in the chest. The man became spread-eagled in the air as though he had hit another brick wall, but his riding partner Jugson, fell from the broom, colliding with Katherine's broomstick.
The force of the blow, snapped the broom in two and sent both Katherine and Jugson hurling towards the earth. A broken end of the broom, struck Katherine hard in the face, ripping the skin on her cheek and rendering her unconscious.
Severus watched in horror as Katherine's lifeless body tumbled over and over, getting smaller and smaller.
"KATHERINE!" Severus shouted.
"I'll get her!" Avery shouted. "Continue the pursuit!" Severus watched as Avery went into a dive after the falling witch, and easily snagged her out of the sky. He sighed with relief, as he saw Avery haul her onto his broom.
"That's him! It's the real Potter!" someone shouted in the distance. Severus watched as Shunpike dropped back and stopped the broom all together. Avery had now managed to fly back to Severus' side, awkwardly trying to keep a grip on Katherine's motionless form.
"They found the boy," Severus informed him. "The Dark Lord is coming."

Between Severus and Avery, they managed to wake Katherine long enough to get her properly situated on Severus' broom before heading back to headquarters. And as soon as they landed, he pulled out a vial and poured the potion down her throat.
Katherine coughed and gagged as her pale skin regained some color. She opened her eyes and looked around before sighing with relief as to being alive.
"Was it him?" Katherine asked, as she sat on the ground, looking between Severus and Avery.
"It was," Severus nodded. "The Dark Lord came, so we came back to headquarters."
"Is everyone here?" Katherine asked, as she looked around wildly from her spot on the ground. "Help me up Sev."
"Katherine, let's get your cheek healed first…"
"No, it can wait," Katherine said, as she forced herself up off the ground. Severus watched as Katherine looked around the group, counting them silently.
"Where Selwyn?" Katherine all but whispered at first. "WHERE'S SELWYN?" She bellowed, but no one answered. A noise broke her worry, and she turned quickly to find Selwyn, himself, strolling through the gates.
"Where the hell were you?" she snarled at the Death Eater, brandishing her wand before him. But her anger soon vanished as the Dark Lord appeared behind the man.
"Everyone inside. NOW!"
