Christmas Eve

Standing back up Harriate made her way over to her body and tried to take the knife from her pocket. The Pure Silver one that had killed Remus and nearly killer her. Luckily her fingers managed to keep a steady hole and she placed it to her bodys left arm and sliced away the skin where the Dark Mark was feeling sick as she ripped the skin off. She threw it to the ground and looked down at her ghostly arm hoping it would disappear.

Teddy apparated outside the house and walked up to the door again. He knocked and waited for someone to answer. He looked around at all the snow and trees.

Teddy smiled at Cody and walked in the door "Hey,have things settled down here? Or should I go?"

Silver crept up the stairs with the music box in her hand...she wanted to play it for Harriate.

She walked into the room with a gasp, as she saw the ghost of harriate over her own body.

"Har..iatte...that you? Can you hear me", silver asked her hands shacking?

Then she saw Remus was there too.

Harriate hear Remus enter and froze not daring to move hoping he wouldnt see her. She sighed in relief as he ran out after finding the skin on the floor.
She froze hearing the door open again and a gasp and knew shed been spotted. She turned around slowly and faced Silver fear in her eyes.
'i...er....i got to go.' she said and tried to run through the wall again but still her arm got stuck from the bracelet. She re entered the room and pulled at the bracelet hard.

Teddy shook his head and decided maybe he should come back later. He went back outside and went for a walk.

Even as pale as she was as a ghost Harriate seemed to get Paler and backed away from them in fear.

She looked back at the door. "I'm fine..be right down."

I..I just wanted to give you your presnet", she said wiping a tear from her and sitting down.

"Can we talk before you run off?"

'y..you shouldnt have..g..got me anything.' Harriate stuttered eyes still wide in fear.
'c..cant go anyway...w..wont let me.' She sighed.
She steadied her nerves and glanced up at Silver looking more like 12 or 13 than 17.
'Can i use the front door?' She asked hesitantly pulling at the bracelet.
'It wont let me out.'

"Sure you can after we talk...you owe me that much", she said opening the music box and letting the sweet sound fill the room.

Harriate nodded but didnt move any closer. She sat down on the floor wrapping her arms around her knees.

"You do that to yourself, she aked looking at her?

"I cared so much Remus cared so much...our daughter. I thought you cared. I can't tel you how hurt I was you helped put a innocent baby in harms way. We loved you. Can you atleast explain...why?"

Harriate glanced over at her body and noticed. tears came to her eyes as she heard Silver speak.
'I didn't mean to. I didn't know he would do that.I didn't even mean to say it i swear. i never wanted to hurt any of you. I'm so sorry.' Harriate said tears rolling down her cheeks as she pulled harder on the bracelet.
