Remus felt amazing relief from her jocular response. However, his jaw clenched upon seeing her makr. His body stiffened, and his anger began to run through his veins. "No....." he began, but paused, politely to let her finish. He swiftly pullled her into his warm arms. "We'll find a way out. I'll do anything to change your fate, Elizabeth. Trust me....Can I tell Dumbledore? If anyone would know what to do, it would be him," his warm voice was confident.

Eliza shook her head in defeat. "There's nothing you can do..." She said faltering a bit in his grip from the pain. "You can't... The dark lord... Already knows... It's too late... Just let me save you..." She told him. "Let him take me... That way your not... in as much danger..." She whispered. Her heart missing a few beats and her jaw clenched to keep herself from crying out in agony. "Remus... Don't do this to... yourself... You don't want me enough... You just met me..." She told him. The strands in her body were coming loose. He was holding most of her weight now. Her legs felt like jelly. She was really in for it this time, and she knew it. She tried to keep herself concious, and her eyes wide, but it was becoming harder and harder. This thing was her worst nightmare. She wanted it gone.

Remus was flooded with anger and hatred for the dark lord. He was also filled with concern and love for poor Elizabeth. The young wizard was still holding her close, not wanting her to leave his grasp. "EVEN IF I JUST MET YOU, WHO WOULD WISH THIS FATE UPON ANYONE!" Tears began to infect his eyes. The spills slowly on top of her head. Suddenly his voice got quiet and low, "Please...stay with me...."

Eliza could here his voice ringing in her ears, but just barely. She grabbed a fistful of his cloak in her hands holding it tight. She was trying to fight against it. Remus was holding her tight against him in a reassuring manner. She managed a weak shaky smile, before a whimper escaped her lips. She let tears spill from her eyes and then the pain suceded and left her body. She quickly became cold and her body suddenly felt weak and fragile. Her breathing came in quick gasps and she felt sick, but she held herself up and tightened her hold on Remus, as the fire quickly went out.

Remus wasn't quite sure what happened next. Elizabeth appeared to be convulsing. Then, she went limp and weak. Panick took over Remus. "Think Moony...Think. What should you do? I got it!" He was about to start giving her CPR, but instead, she soon was breathing again. Remus picked her up bridal style. Laying her on a desk. "I'm going to get you something. Would you rather it be chocolate or water?"

Eliza shook her head when he asked what she wanted. "Nothing, I just need to lie here a minute. I can't go back to my dorm, everyone will know I didn't answer him." She told him taking in shaky breaths, to calm her body from the shock. She hadn't been through that bad of a pain in a while, and she knew she was going to be going through more. Her punishment was awaiting her back at the Riddle Manor.

Remus nodded, picking her up bridal style. "I'll take you to the Gryffindor common room," he murmured in her ear. It was more of a whisper than anything else. "Sleep. You need rest, Elizabeth. If anyone raises any argument about this, I'm in good with all of the professors." Remus's fingers gently ran through her dark locks. "I'm glad I met you."

Eliza was racking her brain and shook her head. "No your going to get in so much damn trouble!" She told him as he ran his fingers through her hair. "What if your friends see me?" She protested. She didn't want him in any more trouble. "I'm glad I met you too." She whispered with a slight smile.

Remus continued his steady steps. "Nonsense, I won't be getting in any trouble. I'll also be filling my time with trying to find a cloaking spell for you. I won't have He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named hurting you. Do you understand me." His grasp around Elizabeth tightened slightly, pulling her into his chest more. Remus wondered if, perhaps, he could use Jame's invisibility cloak for her protection. James...Hmmmmm? What would he have to say? A better question: Who cares?sang Remus's thought as he answered Eliza's question."If my friends see us? Ha, I have black mail on all of them. Nothing will happen, dear..." Remus turned the corner. At his feet, his robes danced like smoke under him. Remus remember the type of pain she was in earlier. Could he handle taking care of her after that. He made a minor adjustment to his statements."It's either the Gryffindor common room or the Hospital Wing..."

Eliza frowned and set her lips in a hard line. this boy just wasn't giving up. "are you an idiot?" She snapped. "do you really want madame pomfrey to see something that she really doesn't need to see? Something that could get the school attacked!" she mumbled into his chest. "I'm pretty sure your friends won't be so lenient even with blackmail..." she stated. she took a deep breath. she had to tell him sometime. right? "especially lily, and sirius. remember their little run in with a new slytherin girl?" she asked expecting the thud of the floor as he dropped her and she landed on it. "remus why are you being so nice to me, when i'm a death eater?" she asked him quietly with a frown.

"Elizabeth, I know Sirius's story was biased, so I will not pass judgment upon his words. However, you tore Lily up that day. I will speak to you about that at a different time." Remus's face was full of seriousness. His words were direct. His eyes watching where he was going. "You didn't chose this life. I will find a way out for you. I promise you will be okay."

Eliza frowned and rolled her eyes. "Must you get so serious with me, you begin sounding like my dad." she told him trying to make him smile. she pressed her palm to his cheek rubbing her thumb over the smooth skin. "You make me like you more and more every minute." She told him letting her head lean against his chest.

Remus softened his gaze upon her head. "Elizabeth, my dear, you are going to be a handful for me, aren't you?" His eyes closed, feeling her touch upon his cheek. "I believe I feel the same way, love." His hands ran through her hair as he placed a gentle kiss on her forehead.

Eliza laughed when he asked if she was going to be a handful. "Obviously." She replied. "You've only known me for twenty minutes and you're already calling me love. That just makes fall even harder, just so you know." she told him with a sigh, blush rising to her cheeks. She tried to hide it by burying her face in his cloak.

Remus's only response to her words and comments was a soft chuckle, vibrating from his chest. He felt her snuggle her face into his chest. The prefect could feel her soft, steady breaths on his skin, through his robes, and, in his arms, he felt her arm. He assumed she was trying to sleep. Remus placed a soft kiss upon the top on her head. "Have a nice nap, dearest Elizabeth..."
