{ConfusionSPINNING}NOAH{Into Despair&&Anger}

[Corliss Malfoy]

Tears streamed down her cheeks, her wand was tightly held in her hand. She was running, running as fast as she could. No one at the entir school had the right to do this. She pumped her arms faster, trying to make it to the great hall. A sob broke her lips. Kallie. The only thing, save Noah, that kept her partially sane was gone. Gone. For only God knows what reason. She couldn't help it if she was angry. She opened her eyes, expecting to see her sleeping baby girl only to see her crib empty, the bars pushed down. No one else was up, so she ran, still in her pajamas, out of the Common Room and out door. She'd screamed a few times, her anger boiling to the point of no return. She was utterly lost, she had no idea what else she could do. Her heart was aching, more than she could have ever imagined.

Her hair was falling over her eyes, she hadn't even pulled it up after she'd woken up. She'd left it in the mess that she woke up with. Images of her smiling baby flashed through her mind, making the tears fall faster. It was a long way to the Great Hall, but she was almost there. She was almost to the place that the person who had taken her baby might be. She'd find them and kill them, put them through unbearable pain then kill them. Put them in the ground forever. She would refuse to let them live, refuse to let them get away without dying. No one took her baby and got away with it. There was nothing that would control her, nothing at all.

Then she was there. At the Great Hall, tears falling freely from her eyes as she looked at the staff table. Empty. Perfect, now no one would have the authority to stop her. She headed straight to the Slythetrin table, attracting looks from all over. She stormed to the table, sobs now coming through her lips freely. No one, besides her close friends, had ever seen the girl cry. No one thought she was capable of loving a single thing so much that she could cry over it.

"WHERE IS SHE! WHICH ONE OF YOU TOOK HER!" she screamed, her voice catching. She held her wand out, pointing it at a few people. "I SWEAR I AM NOT AFRAID OF KILLING ALL ON YOU! DON'T TEST ME! TELL ME WHERE MY BABY IS!" she screamed again, tears coating her face. "JUST GIVE KALLIE TO ME! PLEASE DON'T KEEP HER FROM ME! I SWEAR I WILL KILL YOU! DON'T THINK I WON'T!" she she yelled, her wand pointing at other people. She was not in a good mood. "PLEASE! JUST GIVE ME MY BABY BEFORE I KILL YOU!" she screamed again, her voice catching on her sobs.

[Noah Dale]

Noah yawned as he shoved the piece of toast in his mouth. He was suppose to take Kallie today, so he tried to get as much sleep as possible, but found himself throughly interested in the werewolf section of the reading he needed to know for his N.E.W.T.'s. He hadn't gotten a wink of sleep the entire night, due to the fact he had lost track of time. But he would take his baby girl, bring her up to the Room of Requirements to play with her, sing to her, and dance with her. She, along with her mother, were the only things that could bring a smile to his face when he didn't feel like smiling at all. They were his girls, and even in the short period of knowing both of them, he felt he knew both of them better then anyone in the world.

He was just finishing his eggs when he heard someone storm through the Great Hall. He guessed by the sound of their distress that it was something stupid, he found the fourth years all pulling pranks on one another lately, and it wasn't a rare occurrence that someone would run into the Great Hall and began to shout profanities. None of the teachers wanted to deal with it anymore, so they made plans to eat in the kitchens or staff room from now on. It was only when someone nudged him that he looked up, to see his beautiful girlfriend looking completely lost.

He jumped up immediately, abandoning his breakfast as he moved swiftly around his table and over to her. She was shouting at the top of her lungs about someone, he'd lost half the words in worry for her. When he reached her, his hands reached out for her. "Cor! Cor!" he called, his hands taking her face and directing it to his, making her stare at his face for a few seconds trying to get her to calm down. "Cor, stop shouting, it's doing no one any good. What are you trying to say love? You're not making sense." he said, his thumbs wiping her face from the tears. A look of concern and worry flew over his face, and questions like what was wrong and were was Kallie flew back and forth into his head. But what he couldn't stand was when Corliss or Kallie cried. He'd jump to the moon and back for them if it would make them feel any better.

[Corliss Malfoy]

One moment, everyone was staring at her, giving her odd expressions filled with confusion, the next, she was looking at the only thing she wanted. Noah. But with thoughts of Noah, came renewing thoughts of her stolen child. Sobs consumed her, nuzzling her face in his chest. "THEY TOOK HER! KALLIE......." she screamed into his chest, unable to go on. She pressed her face harder into his chest. "KALLIE IS GONE!" she screamed louder, her heart tearing in two. Nothing could save the person that had done this. They would pay. The would die.

She looked up at Noah, her face covered in tears and stray hairs that had stuck to the wetness of her face. "ONE OF THEM TOOK HER!" she yelled, motherly pain filling every word she screamed. She pointed her wand at the table again. She looked at a seventh year boy who was chuckling to himself. Anger welled up in her chest again. SHe pushed away from Noah, walking to the boy before anyone could stop her. Her hands wound themselves tightly in her cotton shirt. She pulled his body closer to hers. The boy had never liked her. "YOU THINK ITS FUNNY? I'M NOT SCARED TO WHACK OFF SOME OF YOUR LESS VITAL EXTREMITIES! DON'T MESS WITH ME, DOUGLAS!" she yelled, tears falling from her eyes. She looked at him again. "Where is she?" she said, her voice low, deadly even.

The boy removed her hands from his shirt, telling her he didn't know who had taken her child, and that he was sorry for her loss. He stood up then, leaving Corliss unable to hold herself up. She collapsed in a heap of angry, sorrow, and she cried. She let the wall she'd built up bust, letting all of her pain go. "Kallie..." she whispered, her head finding her hands as the tears fell steadily down her cheeks.

[Noah Dale]

Noah watched with agony as she screamed and cried over their child. He felt his heart burst in two as he went into a state a shock. How could she be stolen? She slept by Corliss bedside and she wasn't a heavy sleeper. If this was some kind of joke, he would gladly help his girlfriend kill whoever took her. His arms wrapped around her tightly, with every sob he pulled her tight and kiss the top of her head. Then, she was screaming again, at a boy who laughed at her. Before he could pull them apart so neither party would get hurt she had released him. She whispered the childs name so quietly, he barely got it. He knew her wall crashed down when she fell to the ground and began to sob. His heart broke for his broken angel.

He walked over to her, feeling the eyes of others on his back as he moved closer. "Shh, Cor, it's going to be fine." he whispered, but in reality he didn't have a clue what was going to happen. Which hesitation, he put his arm under her knees and wrapped another around her waist, picking her up with ease. He kissed the top of her head and made his way out of the Great Hall. He climbed up the stairs, not really sure where he was going. When he reached the fifth floor, he turned from the staircases and saw a boy and a girl leaving a abandonned classrom. He walked swiftly over to it, opening the door to find a make-shift common room. He had heard that the Ravenclaw tower had been destroyed during the Great War and they had to live in a few abandonned classrooms as their own. They must've just left it as it was.

He carried his girlfriend over to one of the old couches, sitting down with her still in his arms. His hands moved to her face, looking over at her sadly as the tears kept falling from her face. "None of us took her? You checked with Nikita and Kianthra?" he asked, wiping the tears from her face, fighting back his own tears that threaten to fall. He had to get the facts straight, before he could figure out who took them.

[Corliss Malfoy]

There was nothing but agony. Absolute agony as she felt Noah's arms under her. One of the most important things to her was gone. Gone, and she wasn't sure if she was going to see the precious baby again. Her arms wrapped around his neck, burring her face in the crook of his neck. "Its not ok, baby... I lost her, lost her! I 'm such a terrible mom." she whispered, pressing her body closer to him. Her chest rose and fell in ragged movements, her breath hot against her boyfriend's chest. She felt the tears falling faster, staining his shirt. Her eyes stayed closed as they moved up the stairs, her tears never faltering. The entire time Noah was carrying her, she kept up a steady steam of simple words, the only things shoe could think keep tumbling from her shaking lips. "I love you... I'm sorry... Kallie..." The words, along with others, fell from her mouth, ending only when she felt Noah sit down.

Her eyes opened her eyes, finding her boyfriend's hands on her face. She couldn't think straight, let alone comprehend why anyone would want to steal her baby. "No no no no no. None of them, they wouldn't do that. They know she means to much to me. It was New Order! You know they are the only ones who want to mess with me. They can't get away with it..." she said, her voice breaking. She pressed her lips to his for moment, falling away from him after a few seconds. She saw the tears glistening in his eyes, knowing that he was trying to be strong. "You don't have to be strong, Noah. It doesn't matter." she whispered, her hand resting on his cheek.

[Noah Dale]

The tears were staining his shirt, but he could care less. His girl was broken, and clinging to him like there was no tomorrow. "Shh baby shh... you are not a terrible Mum. You're the best thing that's every happened to our girl." he continued his path forward, forgetting the odd looks people were giving them, the rude comments like "I bet her got her pregnant again" and things like that. He listened to her odd comments, and every once in awhile he would reply back to them such as "I love you too" and "Don't be sorry." This was anything but her fault. He felt the reasons why she was taken in his head, and they all linked to him.

Noah nodded his head as she mentioned the New Order. They hated both parents for one reason or another. "They won't get away with it. I promise sweetness." he said and found his lips going to hers the same time she was pressing her lips against his. They needed for support for the moment. When she told him he didn't have to be strong, he closed his eyes, finding that holding his tears was becoming impossible now. As a single tear fell down his face, he choked back a sob, before leaning his head against her shoulder. "Why Kallie? Why not me?" he said, his voice cracking under the tears.

Eventually he got his voice back, his face wet from crying. "This is all my fault. If it's the New Order who took her, it's because I was so rough on Ted. But, I was thinking, it could've of been Aiden." he whispered his head still resting on her shoulder. "He wanted you gone love, you and Kallie gone. That why I have to thank Tobie, she saved me from him. He was mental." Noah sniffed loudly. "We have to find her, we have to. I don't.. I do not think.." he shut his eyes tightly again, not even to phantom-size a world without Kallie in it. He remembered every moment with her, every little smile she gave him, and the tears fell once again.

[Corliss Malfoy]

Corliss felt horrible. She knew she'd pushed someone too far, and that this was their idea of the perfect punishment. If it'd her sweet child back, she'd never use a single Unforgivable in her entire life. She tried to suppress her sobs, tried to get a handle on her tears, but she was too far gone. "They won't get away with it. Not while I'm alive. They'll have to answer to me if a single hair on Kallie's head is messed up. If they have the audacity to harm her physically, mentally or even bring the death of her, they won't only be killed, they will be killed slowly. Nikita will help with that part." she said, her anger boiling again. When she saw that tears streaking down Noah's cheeks, her heart broke even further, her anger vanishing. She wrapped her body closer to him, one hand in hair while that other was on his back tracing soothing circles on his back. "They didn't want you. They wouldn't have taken me either. They wanted to take something that would affect many people, they wanted someone who was our entire life. They've succeeded." she whispered against his ear, tears still falling down her face.

"Its not your fault, baby. Its as much as my fault is it is yours. I've done worse things to Lupin's little wife, not to mention the rest of them." she whispered back, her voice disappearing as she heard his next words. Aiden wanted her and her Kallie dead? That wasn't true. It couldn't be! She looked at Noah, her face blank except for the tears that still fell down them. "He.... He is my friend.... He wouldn't k-k-kidnap my baby. Why did he want us d-d-dead?" she said, her face finding its way back to his neck where she cried harder. The people she trusted were turning out to not really care for her. What a great thing to find out right after you baby goes missing. "What, love? Say it." she said, her hands soothingly stroking his back and hair. She didn't like seeing Noah being sad, and she hated seeing him in such pain.

[Noah Dale]

His hand rested on heir cheek, wiping away the tears with his thumb while the other one was latched onto her hand, squeezing tightly. He sniffed, and nodded his head, not able to make a verbal response. But once he was able, he was going after their baby's kidnapper, and if Kallie had the little scratch, the little problem with her, they would be dead. Actually, they were going to be dead anyways. No one got away with hurting his family. He had realized a while ago how important Corliss and Kallie had become to his life. At first, the idea of Corliss having a child nearly frightened him off. Yet here he was, crying over the loss of their child like any true parent would.

He hugged her tighter as he began to cry, feeling her hand moving into his hair, the other on his back. He cried as she told him it wasn't his fault. He couldn't believe her words. He always managed to screw up the good things in his life, maybe this was another sign of it? As she cried harder into his neck, his throat clenched. He thought he had told her. "When you were pregnant with Kallie, he was at the Whomping Willow one day. I told him to get away, so he wouldn't get hurt, and then he asked where you were. I didn't tell him I had just left you in the care of Kia and Niki. It's why myself and Tobie became such close friends all of the sudden. She.. she saved my life." Noah said, kissing the top of Corliss's face. "I owe her." he whispered again, knowing if she hadn't stopped Aiden he wouldn't be alive today. He was strong, but not as strong as Aiden when he was mad.

He looked up at his girlfriend, who was looking extremely fragile at the moment. "I've never felt so much pain in my life. But.. when it comes to you and Kallie, every tear, it just kills me inside." he said, resting his head in the croon of her neck, breathing in her scent, trying to calm himself as it always did. "I don't know what I'd do without either of you." Noah whispered next to her ear, his head resting in one spot. He felt the tears dripping down his face but he didn't care. This was the only person in the world he truly cared about, he could share anything with her.

[Corliss Malfoy]

All that she could feel was emptiness. Without Kallie in her arms, a huge part of her was gone. She needed the little girl, she needed to know that she was safe and warm. If anything, she needed to see the little girl, just so that she knew she wasn't dead or severely injured. So many things crossed her mind as she laid in Noah's arms, their tears mixing together as they huddled closer to one another. She was surprised by Noah's actions though. She knew he loved the little girl, but who couldn't? She was just so sweet. Seeing him crying told her that her boyfriend, the best person in the world to her, considered the missing baby his. It made her heart swell, lessening the ache that had come when she woken that morning.

Corliss felt herself being pulled into Noah's warm body. Her own quivering body wouldn't have been able to support her weight if she was on her own. She drew in shaky breaths as she listened to Noah explain what had happened. She felt the pain surge back through her body. She began to shake harder, her sobs becoming uncontrollable. Tears rushed down her face as she looked up, her eyes wide. She was unable to form words, her mind had gone into a state of shock seconds earlier. She wiped the tears from her face, new one taking their place the second she moved her hands. This can't be happening...

[/b] was all she could think. Someone had to be playing a sick and twisted practical joke, and it was not funny. Not even in the least bit.

Corliss felt her chest heaving in sobs. She'd never cried this hard in her entire life, not even when she'd been raped. Damn, the Corliss everyone knew and fear was slowly tumbling down to show the soft, motherly girl that no one thought possible. "We h-h-have to b-be st-str-strong for K-Kal." she whispered, her arms falling into her lap. Just saying the baby's name killed her. "We c-c-can't live w-w-without each other." she whispered, her hands shaking as she used it to wipe the tars from his face.[/left][/size]

[Noah Dale]

Noah felt her body quake in his arms. His grip on her grew tighter, feeling his own tears begin to subdue. He knew that he had to be strong now, not only for Kallie, but for her Mum too. He peppered short and small butterfly kisses on her forehead as he sobs overtook her. He wanted all the pain to go away, he never wanted this pain to be conflicted on her. In all his time as her boyfriend, he found himself comforting her in one way or another. He didn't mind helping her through each of the predicaments, but he just wanted them to stop. Why would someone torture such a perfect girl?

Although tears fell down his own cheeks still, they weren't as bad as Corliss's. It was a constant stream down her face and he watched every time she went to wipe away tears new ones would take their place. He wanted her to stop crying, but he knew this would take over now, until they found their little baby. He breathed sharply, resting his face in her hair again as they curled up on the couch. The ideas began to flow into his had about what he was going to do to the kidnapper. He himself had never before an Unforgivable but the torture he was being put through now seemed reasonable. It seemed like a well thought out plan in his mind, torture torture and more torture, and if she so much had a scratch on her arm, they'd be dead before they could scream.

As her arms fell into her lap, Noah watched them idly, nodded as she told him to be strong. When she mentioned about not living without each other he totally agreed. He took the hand that was wiping her own tears away in his own, bringing it up to his lips and kissing her knuckles. Their enjoined hands then went to work wiping away her steady flow of tears, taking some of his own when she would break out into a sob, covering her face in wetness again. "We're going to find her Cor, I promise you. I will never stop looking for our baby girl." he said, moving their hands to move her chin up, looking her straight in the eye. He didn't move, didn't kiss her, showing how truthful those words were. He'd go above and beyond to find out just who took their girl.
