Bellatrix walked into the leaky cauldron, and as she walked in some walked out, clearly they were smart and didn't want to get in the way of Bellatrix Lestrange. With Damian and Demeter going back to Hogwarts - they'll be on the train by now. Bella needed something to do, been stuck in the house was not her, she was basically bored. Her husband was on a mission for the Dark Lord - she had heard from him so she knew he was safe which had put her mind at rest. She didn't say it out loud but she deeply cared for her husband - nothing was more important to her than her family. Yes she was still the Dark Lord's most faithful follower but she still made sure her children came first. Her son Damian was also a death eater but she wouldn't let Demeter become a Death Eater until she completed her studies at Hogwarts.
She got a firewhiskey from the bar and sat down at one of the tables. All of the mudbloods had left when she walked in - there was very few people left in the pub. She smiled to herself as she glanced down at her arm where her dark mark was - course at the moment it was covered by the dress she was wearing. It was raining outside so she undid her cloak and put it onto the chair next to her.

Andromeda had left Ted no choice as she left the home they shared and made her way into Diagon Alley. Truth be told she'd needed the space. Much as she loved him it made her feel slightly claustrophobic to be stuck at home.
She was thinking about her sisters as always, her brown eyes clearly tearing up even as she wiped them and pushed through the doors to the Leaky Cauldron. She could clearly remember Cissa's gentle laugh and bright blue eyes framed by blonde hair. Of Bella she remembered only dark eyes and dark hair... that and a look of pure royalty. The look of someone who would grow to be powerful if dark.
She headed straight to the bar, ordering a butterbeer from the bar before looking around. Her gaze came to rest on Bella, though she didn't recognise her as her sister. Glancing around she made her way over, settling at the table despite people's warnings. Her long brown hair was smoothed thanks to use of a potion and she wore a simple yet clean white dress.

Bella's black dress was a big contrast to Andromeda's white dress. But Bella and Andy was almost always complete opposites from each other even when they were younger. She twisted some of her black, tangled curls in her fingers. She looked up as Andromeda sat at her table, she must have a death wish, because Bella hadn't regraded Andromeda as her sister since she turned blood traitor on her family and married the mudblood. Bellatrix would never know how she could even let him touch her. Never mind marry him and have a child, least her children were pureblood.
"Seen the error in choices and come to beg for forgiveness have you... bit late for that." She said to her cruely. She noticed the looks she got of people from round the bar they were scared of her - they had every reason to be. There was no room in the family for blood traitors that was made clear when Andromeda was blasted off the family tree.

"Dream on Bella." Andromeda fired back lightly. She hadn't recognised her sister, not until the woman spoke. This cruel woman was not the sister she remembered, to her Bella had been fair if a little vicious, now she clearly hated her. Well, that was up to her.
She drank from her drink and watched Bella quietly, not bothering to react at the glare Bella was giving her. She was used to staring and hatred. "The only reason I'm here is because I got bored... I wouldn't doubt that you felt the same." She spoke softly still, a hint of steel to her tone.
"As for regretting something, I was rather helping you might have learnt from the years in prison." It was clear she still cared from the fact she wasn't cursing Bella to all hell, something she had wanted to do the first she heard of Bella's husband of choice. "You might scare people." Here her voice raised and she stood, shifting only to direct her gaze directly into Bella's, keeping it level despite the fierce sadness she felt. "You don't scare me Bella... you are still my sister."

"You lost the right to call me Bella the day you turned your back on the family and married that flithy little mudblood." She snapped. She took a drink from her fire-whiskey. "I am the dark lords most faithful follower... his most trusted." She had spent 14 years in Azkaban for the Dark Lord, never once denying that she was a Death Eater, in her trial she had sat proudly in the chair, in chains as if it were a throne, She had said the Dark Lord would return and he would reward those who remained loyal to him. Bellatrix's only regret was that she didn't get to see her twins grow up. They had been raised by Narcissa since Bella and Rodolphus were thrown in Azkaban.
She stood up, she was still taller than Andromeda, So the bloodtraitor was either brave or stupid. Bloodtraitors were just as bad as mudbloods in her book. "You are not my sister." she said coldly, the frostiness was clearly heard in her voice. Her fingers clenched around her wand in the pocket of her dress. She didn't need a reason to curse Andromeda, Andromeda was just lucky that she hadn't done so already.

Androemda glowered darkly at her sister. "I was hoping you'd grown up Bella." She deliberately spoke the woman's shortened name, determined to prove a point. "Maybe one day you'll discover just how stupid you're being..." She made to walk away, then paused and turned to look again at Bella.
"You know, for a smart witch you're one crazy..." Her voice fell flat then and she shrugged. "You know what? Forget it, I'm wasting my time." She was leaving, she'd decided that much already. If Bella wouldn't listen then maybe she should just leave... better than crying in front of her sister.
"I may be an outcast Bellatrix " Her voice came louder at Bella's full name. "At least I'm not going to die for a 'Dark Lord' who will be beaten." She made to go again, clearly struggling to cool down again, she cast a quiet shiled charm as she turned to look at Bella one last time, her hand on the door.

"I'm not the one that needs to grow up, It wasn't me that turned my back on my family." She remembered that day very well, the day that day Andromeda was blasted off the family tree, well there was no room in the family for bloodtraitors. Bellatrix had quickly disowned Andromeda from the family, as you can guess she was disgusted when she heard that Andromeda - had a child with the mudblood. Bella had only met her niece once and Bella had tried to kill her.
She glanced at her long freshly painted black nails, usually she wouldn't have bothered because she would only chip them - as usual. But Demeter had painted them, mainly out of boredom and Bellatrix hadn't been in the mood to blow anything up. Everything in that house must have been blown up this summer then repaired again.
"Azkaban will do that to a person." She said folding her arms, She was slightly mad even before Azkaban she was even worse now. Her eyes flashed as her comment about the dark lord. "You think someone can defeat the Dark Lord... the greatest wizard of our age." She smiled cruely. "or you think icicle baby potter can defeat the Dark Lord.... he may have been lucky before but we will win Andromeda."
When she turned her back on her, she pulled out her wand. "Crucio!" As she had told Harry Potter a few years ago in order to cast a good crucio curse you had to mean them - to really want to cause pain. At the moment Bella really wanted to cause Andromeda pain.

The shield charm cast had rebounded the curse, the shot clearly missing Bella, but hitting a tin can, which gave a loud ding, which made Andromeda smile a little, okay, so at least she didn't kill her sister, this time. "Shield Charm Bella, get over it." She turned to face Bella again, smirking slightly at the look on Bella's face. "Oh get over it Bella, you're like a schoolchild with a crush... 'My lord is better than your boy.'... He doesn't love you Bella." By now the natural spite was surfacing and she spoke icily.
"Harry will defeat your precious Lord... and I wouldn't be too stunned if you got yourself killed for your idiocy." She turned again and left, letting the door slam behind her, let Bella chase her, if she could be bothered. Maybe going out had been a stupid idea, she thought to herself, a little amused.
