Insert Epic Title Here.

It took what felt like forever to make it to the address on the parchment. Chloe was tired and wanted nothing more than sleep. By the time they landed, the sky was a light pink with the color of the next day. "I have no plan, so...." Chloe started, looking at the house. "We're just going to wing it. Stay close." She finished, turning the knob slowly, sighing of relief when it opened easily.

Phoebe nodded softly, her hand resting softly above her pocket, ready to whip her wand out at a moments notice. She nibbled her lower lip nervously as she looked around, keeping close to Chloe, her hands shaking slightly. What if he wasn't here?

Chloe stayed as quiet as possible, looking for the first thing she could set on fire to distract them, her usual technique. Walking softly, incase the floor creaked, she made it to the livingroom, sending the sofa up in flames before quickly pulling Phoebe into a bathroom to wait until they heard rucus in the livingroom. She kept the door cracked to determine what room they were all coming from, and jumped when the fire alarm went off. "If anything happens, keep running. I can handle myself, alright? No need to get you caught too. I'm going to go upstairs first. If any are left up there, i'll get them out. And if Nathans in there, get him out." She whispered to Phoebe, reaching to squeeze her hand before slowly opening the door and inching out, then running full speed into the room they had all came from.

Phoebe nodded softly, squeezing Chloe's hand back gently, following her up the stairs, a little slower, slipping into the room once Chloe had gone inside. She quickly scoped out the room for Nathan, seeing him slumped in the corner she quickly jogged over to him, kneeling down next to him, resting a hand on his cheek. "Nathan." she whispered. "We need to get out, Nathan..."

Nathan, barely aware of his surroundings, held back a groan as he slowly lifted his head to see Phoebe. It took all the energy he had to shake his head at her. "Get out" he whispered, because it was all he could manage.

"Nathan if we don't leave now you're going to die." Phoebe hissed, grabbing his hand gently, trying to tug him from the floor. "I can't lift you." She sighed in frustration.

No part of Nathan wanted to move, let alone stand. But if he didn't Phoebe was going to get caught, because she was too stubborn to ever listen to anything he said. He took as deep a breath as possible, and pushed himself onto his feet, losing balance and leaning back against the wall for support. Once he decided he could walk, he noticed that Chloe was coming back in the room as well. He took another deep breath, realizing what he had to do, and took both of their hands. "Whatever you do, don't let go." He said quietly, sure that this was only going to add to the pain he already felt. After much focusing, he finally apparated into Hogsmeade, then fell to the ground, exhausted. Chloe left them, to throw up, after apparating for the first time, then sat down beside him. "I can't go." Nathan muttered, nodding towards the path to Hogwarts. "Thank you guys, but I have to go back."

Phoebe rested a hand on her head, feeling dizzy. She looked at Nathan in shock, shaking her head at him. "You're impossible. Nathan you are not going back there. And if you are, I'm going back with you. Your choice." she stated, grabbing his hand quickly, looking at him. "You're hurt and tired." she stated. "We need to find someplace to go. If you're not going up to school then I'm not either. I'm not leaving you Nathan. Not when you're like this."

Chloe quietly looked back and forth between the two of them, and almost threw up again out of jealousy. Guys that actually liked her were hard to come by when everyone wanted her for her fame. Nathan could care less about Phoebe's parents. "You're just going to go off with him?" She asked, confused. That definitely didn't sound safe, but she couldn't protect Phoebe all the time.

Nathan laughed, then put a hand to his stomach to ease the pain that laughing caused. "I'm impossible? You're the most stubborn girl I've ever met." He murmered, looking at Chloe when she addressed Phoebe. He would walk away to give them privacy if he thought he could stand.

Phoebe shrugged. "He's not ready to be alone Chloe. He's probably been tortured countless times." she shook her head softly. "Plus if he goes off his father will find him and you will just have thrown up for nothing." She smiled softly, pushing a hand through her hair. "Now, you can go back up to the castle and make friends with Adam again. Or else." she winked at her before turning back to Nathan. "And yes, I am stubborn, I'm stubborn because I care." she stuck her tongue out before resting her hand gently over his stomach. "You okay?"

Nathan nodded, "We don't have anywhere to go" he admitted, too tired to put work into thinking of somewhere to go. "I've got an idea. You guys go home, and I'll fend for myself." He said with a small smile, already knowing it wasn't going to work. "We'll figure something out." Chloe put in, biting her lip, and staring at the ground. "If you guys don't mind me going." she added quickly. "I've been through a little too much to just go to class like nothing's happened."

"It's fine Chloe." Phoebe smiled brightly, not really noticing she was still holding Nathan's hand until she looked down and saw, blushing deeply and pulling her hand away. "Though where are we going to go? Isn't there some sort of hotel around here or something?" she suggested, standing up and brushing herself off, looking around, trying to hide her dark cheeks from Nathan.

Nathan smiled as Phoebe's hand slipped out of his, then slowly stood as well, wishing he could just go to sleep right there. "I'll disapparate us" he decided, hoping he could even get the strength to do it again. Chloe put a hand to her stomach when she figured out that she would have to apparate with him again. Nathan went through every town he'd ever been in in the muggle world, trying to remember a hotel or something he'd seen. He didn't visit the muggle world much, so it was a possibility they would end up in an unfamiliar place, or even worse, deadfrom splinching if he couldn't concentrate. He nodded, remembering what the street looked like and put his hand out to help Chloe up before taking Phoebe's hand again and closing his eyes. A minute later, they were standing in front of a dirty looking motel. "It's the best we got." Nathan explained, doubling over from the loss of strength.

Phoebe nodded softly, looking at the motel with a look of distaste before looking at Nathan. "Come on." she said softly, wrapping her arms around him gently to straighten him up. "As soon as we get inside you can sleep okay?" she said, keeping one arm around his waist, to steady him, even though she knew she wouldn't be much help if he completely lost strength. She nodded to Chloe before walking over to the door with Nathan, opening it and walking inside quickly, keeping her arm tight around his waist.

Chloe laughed when she realized they hadn't brought money. "Here I go again" she said, before catching the nearest curtain on fire and ushering Nathan and Phoebe past her when the manager was busy putting the curtain out. They hurried to a room, which Chloe unlocked. The room looked just as dirty as the rest of the motel but  they had no other choice. "One bed. We'll sleep on the floor. Take the bed." She said, turning it down for Nathan.   

Phoebe nodded, walking Nathan over to the bed and letting him down onto it gently. "Sleep well." she whispered to him softly, giving him a small smile before going over to Chloe. "Where are we going to get stuff to sleep on from?" she questioned, looking around the room.

OOC: Just a suggestion, at some point the DE could take Phoebe, because they know each of the others have a strong bond with her and when they go to get her back she's been tortured etc and Nathan's father is guarding her to make sure she doesn't get away easily?

Chloe put the blankets delicately over Nathan before laughing and going to the door. "I'm going to complain that the ones in our room are dirty." She explained, walking to the front desk as if they'd been in the room all along. After retrieving a relatively clean bed set, she entered the room again and dropped them to the floor. "I'm the worlds best liar." she bragged, taking a look outside the window before lying down in the floor. "What are we going to do, Chloe? Stay on the run for the rest of our lives? Call me crazy, but I'd kind of like to see my family again someday."

OOC: that sounds good

Phoebe rolled her eyes, lying down next to her. "I don't know. There must be some way of defeating them." she shrugged lightly, her eyes fluttering closed. "I'm tired though Chloe. We can think of a plan in the morning." she decided, curling up, quickly falling to sleep.

OOC: Thank you(: And HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
