Classroom 13

[Draco Malfoy]

An Empty Classroom.

[Leanna Barker]

Leanna slipped into the empty classroom and looked around. There wasn't as much dust as she thought. She dropped her bag by the door and stepped into the middle of the classroom, her arms lifting to stretch. Her back arched backwards and she planted her hands on the floor, flipping herself back over onto her feet. Patting down her pockets, Leanna slipped her wand from them and tossed them down next to her bag. Waving her wand through the air, Leanna conjured some music, the sweet sound of violins and flutes filled the air. Her wand was tucked into her bun where it wouldn't get lost, she'd die if anyone ever saw it there but being alone and without her robes it was the safest place for it.

She hummed along with the music, tapping the beat on her hip with her palm. Her eyes closed, letting the music wash over her. The dust helped her feet to slide over the floor, the dance a mix of ballet and contemporary. As she moved, her feet left a trail behind her, sweeping the dust aside and making a pattern over the floor.

[Amycus Carrow]

Amycus was bored.

That was never a good thing... But Alecto was busy, Rod was on an errand forthe Dark Lord, the brats just weren't really entertaining him today and both Malfoy and the little ginger runt were conspiciously absent. That made for a ill tempered Death Eater... Prowling around the corridors, the pale man glanced around him in frustration, seeking something, anything to remove his tedium.

At last he found it.

His footsteps paused and hsi head tilted as he picked up the stray notes of Leanna's music, turning slowly towards the sound, expression contemplative as he followed it to the still open door of the room, pausing and letting his shoulder lean against the jam as he watched the brat within frolic in the dust like some flithy muggle.

[Leanna Barker]

Leanna saw someone by the door as she spun, her eyes widening for a moment. She turned twice more then stopped, falling to her knees in the centre of the classroom, the music dying away. Her hands lifted and pulled her wand from her bun, placing it on the floor beside her. Then she looked up, breathing a little hard, a mix of fear and exhilaration. Someone had caught her dancing.

"Did my music disturb you sir?" she asked, lowering her gaze back to the floor.

Dust stirred lazily in the air as it started to settle, a few specks dropping into Leanna's hair. She kept her hands in her lap, a safe distance from her wand without removing the ability to grab it if she needed to. And she wouldn't. She would keep her mouth shut and hopefully he'd go away.

[Amycus Carrow]

Well now... honestly he didn't know whether to be amused or sneer at the act of supplication that she gave him on noticing his person, the redhead postrating herself before him without any prompting or so much as a sneer from him. On one hand, a lot more brats out there could use manners like this, on the other... how dull, no fight in her at all.

"And if it did?" he asked her arching an eyebrow.

[Leanna Barker]

"I'll have to find somewhere quieter." she offered in reply. "Or remember to shut the door. Sir."

If her mother had done nothing else, she had taught Leanna that manners could lessen a punishment. If it would worked with Death Eaters. Even so it was worth a try. Better to just be Crucio'ed than lose a finger. She was still breathing a little hard, trying to bring her breathing back to a normal speed. She could feel her heart hammering in her chest. Her eyes lifted to run over the man standing in front of her, trying to remember which one this was. For a brief moment her eyes locked with his, her teeth catching her bottom lip before she could look away, keeping her eyes firmly on the floor now.

[Amycus Carrow]

A dangerous smile played over Amycus's features as he took her in, looking every inch like a cat with a captive mouse to play with.

"I can't decide if you're just slow, or if you're ill bred," he mused out loud, long fingers lazily toying with his own wand. "Enlighten me. Name and blood status brat?"

[Leanna Barker]

She took a breath, a split second of hesitation, then answered his question. "Leanna Barker, sir. My mother is a pureblood." Leanna hated the way the words sounded as they left her mouth but she couldn't take them back now. Her mouth was trying to throw more words at the man in front of her. She pressed her lips together and recited potion's ingredients in her head.

[Amycus Carrow]

His eyes narrowed, wicked smile growing as her omission rung in the air between them, the atmosphere growing tense.

"And your father...?" he all but purred out.

[Leanna Barker]

"I don't know." Leanna replied, her response almost counted out in her head so that it wasn't too quick, nor too slow to be considered a lie. It was technically true, her mother never talked much about her father's blood status. It was an unspoken shame in the family, he definitely wasn't a pureblood, he could just have easily been a half-blood.

[Amycus Carrow]

Amycus lazily tilted his head as he considered the girl before he flicked his wand in her direction, a silent reminder of the treatment she'd got in his offices.

"Want to try that again precious thing?" he smirked at her. "I'm feeling generous so I'll pretend I didn't hear that. Now, tell me about your father."

[Leanna Barker]

Leanna's mouth tightened for a moment, almost considering taking a run for it. It wouldn't do any good, he'd cut her down too quickly for her to getanywhere. She swallowed a little and let her tongue pass over her lips, wetting them a little so she could speak.

"He was a mudblood." She hissed, anger, hurt and hatred in her tone. It was genuine emotion, not a single drop was faked, and it was all aimed at her mother, the little whore that she'd been.

[Amycus Carrow]

Sharp, white teeth showed in a shark like grin as Amycus pushed himself up off the door to prowl closer, coming to a halt only inches from her form, long fingered hand reaching out to cup her cheek as he stared down into her eyes, his own souless black filled with madness and danger.

"Say it again, precious thing, I didn't hear," he breathed, tone taunting.

[Leanna Barker]

The closeness didn't bother Leanna nor did his cool fingers against her skin. Her eyes lifted to his, dancing with anger and pain as she took a moment to stare into the madness in his gaze. A tiny ran over her form but she didn't pull away, she didn't want to back down, she wouldn't back down. The Raven lifted herself a little, moving closer to Amycus, her gaze holding his. Her tongue flicked over her lips again and she took a small breath.

"He was a f***ing mudblood." she hissed in reply, very aware that she could feel his breath on her skin. When had she gotten so close~?

[Amycus Carrow]

A low, crazed laugh left Amycus's throat as the girl snapped before him, dareing to press closer and hiss in his face. Slowly his grin grew wider, hand tracing lightly down her cheeck to settle on her throat before it wrpped around firmly, crushing her windpipe slightly in warning.

Savage amusement ran through him at her antics. This puppy might prove to be amusing after all. Such fire in her... she would be fun to break.

Turning his face, Amycus let his lips brush her ear.

"And what do we think of mudbloods, sweet-child?" the Death Eater ordered, voice like silk as it ran over her skin.

[Leanna Barker]

She felt his hand around her throat and a slight panic welled up inside her, it seemed every meeting they had ended with her being choked. Leanna gasped softly as his lips brushed her ear, trembling a little as she fought not to pull away. Her mind was nudging her with information about the man, and when she took a breath she could smell sandalwood. There was a hint of fresh earth there too, had he been outside lately?

His question brought her back from her thoughts, though not before she took another deep breath, her eyes falling closed again. "They are nothing more than slaves for those of pureblood and should not be allowed to have privilege above their bloodstatus." Leanna didn't know if that was what he wanted to hear, it was all she could bring from her mind at that point in time.

[Amycus Carrow]

"What privilege is that?" he pressed, voice remaining low and taunting. "Tell me... what does their blood status ear them, halfblood?"

[Leanna Barker]

She looked up at Amycus, her tongue running over her lips. "The privilege to learn magic, sir." Leanna replied. Her fingers shook and her eyes squeezed shut for a moment, bresthing in his soothing scent, such a misleading aspect of him.

HIs dangerous smile grew wider, white teeth showing once more in a sharp grin at her words. He could practically smell the fear on her - oh it was delicious... He bet this one had beautiful screams...

"And what should we DO to these mudbloods to ensure they know their place *intimately* dear one?" he lilted again, gaze daring.

[Leanna Barker]

A shudder went through her and she met his eyes, trying to fight the urge to look away. "Mudbloods should be punished for assuming they have a right to learn magic. No one has a right, sir, it is a privilege to be given to those purebloods who serve the Dark Lord and follow his laws." she shivered a little. "Mudbloods should be taught their place with the Unforgiveables. Or other such harming curses." She bit her bottom lip softly, hoping that she had given him the required answer.

[Amycus Carrow]

Amycus started to circle her, motions fluid and powerful, like a cat with an injured bird, knowing the kill was right before it but wanting to take the time to draw it out, to make the creature suffer.

"Such conviction," he drawled back, feline smirk curling on his lips. "Tell me now, sweet-child... how far does that conviction take you I wonder?"

[Leanna Barker]

Leanna's eyes followed him out of her sight then returned to his face when he came back around. She paused for a moment at his words then turn her head to look at him. "I believe in the cause." she said simply. "I will do anything."

[Amycus Carrow]

His hands settled on her hips as he came up behind her, chest lightly leaning on her back as his head leaned over her shoulder, turning to press his face to the side of hers and inhale her scent.

"You willing to prove that, little Raven?" he breathed into her ear.

[Leanna Barker]

Leanna tensed up a little, fighting down the urge to pull away. His hands were warm on her hips, his chest warming her back. Her eyes closed as his face pressed against hers and she took a shaky breath. She nodded once, needing just a moment to take a breath. "I will prove it."

[Amycus Carrow]

Jasmine and lemon... the scent suited her. Odd and delicate. Something easily crushed under stronger, baser scents. Like blood.

His hand slid up, almost tenderly to bury in her hair as he smiled at her response... before abruptly fisting and jerking back viciously.

"I will prove it Sir," he corrected pleasantly.

[Leanna Barker]

His hand was sliding into her hair. For a moment she was going to relax then he yanked back hard. She let out a soft whimper, her eyes squeezed shut. She never liked having her head tilted back, it felt like she couldn't breathe properly.

"I will prove it, Sir." she gasped out.

[Amycus Carrow]

His teeth flashed in a grin as he continued to nuzzle affectionately at the side of her face, completely at odds with the fist curling cruely in her hair.

"Forget that again sweet thing, and you'll be the one under *my* wand, understand?" he purred out.

[Leanna Barker]

His words sent a shudder through her, his nuzzling doing nothing to keep her mind where it was supposed to be. She could almost ignore his words, but the threat of pain was enough to make her pull a breath to answer the Death Eater.

"Yes, Master." she murmured, pausing for a moment after the word slipped from her lips, unsure why she'd chosen that one.

[Amycus Carrow]

His actions paused at her words, eyebrow arching up as he ran a deeply amused gaze over her for a moment before chuckling, a hand coming up to cup her face as he pressed his own harder to the side of her head.

"Good girl~" he crooned before abruptly releasing her and stepping back, black gaze sweeping her person in idle thought. Master huh? Fitting... perhaps this brat was going to be more fun than he had initially thought.

"Come along pet," he ordered, turning to lead her from the room. "Let's test that resolve of yours..."

[Leanna Barker]

Leanna almost stumbled when he let go of her hair, her eyes squeezing shut for a moment before opening and turning to look at the Death Eater as he started to leave the room. She followed after him, hesitating for just a moment before touching his arm lightly and gesturing to a second year Hufflepuff that was scurrying along a side corridor. Her wand flicked and she sent a tripping spell down the corridor after the child.
