005 - In Which Penny Gets Mad
[Charmed against Dark Aligned People]


I have a right to my anger, and I don't want anybody telling me I shouldn't be, that it's not nice to be or that something's wrong with me because I am angry. 
I am not a happy camper and while I’m hardly confrontational I feel a need to express my general disillusionment here. Heaven knows I’ve held my tongue long enough! I am angry that people write in their journals about meaningless happy times when people are being killed because of who their parents are or who they align themselves with. I’ve come to the conclusion that some people have lost sight of what is going on in the world around them. They are so clouded by drugs and booze that they wouldn’t know that the sky is blue if you told them.  We’re allowing ourselves to accept this half-life or a world of injustice. I will never accept this world. I don’t see how so many of you have let this occur.

 I will never be happy hiding.  I will not be content until I can be out in the world again and walk hand in hand with Percy.  I will not give up until I can see my family again.

The world for me is larger than this box of a room.  I haven’t spoken to my parents over half a year because I had to send them to safety.  I hardly see my husband because he’s sacrificing for you all.  Do you think he’s happy being a Ministry stooge?  Do you think he gets a rise out of being away from his family and loved ones?  Do you think he loves laughing at the mindless Muggleborn jokes over coffee when his own wife is one? My husband is doing something and if I could do the same I’d be out there doing something worth while as well.   We are in a war.  We’ve allowed it to stagnate and I can’t take much more of it.  I cannot spend another month of my life stagnate and waiting for change.  We’ve been gathering intelligence for months and what have we done other than twiddle our thumbs?

Oh that’s right! We’ve read about the drunken escapades of the Weird Sisters;  We’ve allowed Umbridge to infest Hogwarts with her bigotry and cut off children from their families.  Excuse my language but what the hell are we doing? I mean really. What are we doing?  I’m sick of cooking and reading books. I’m so tired of it all.  I’m burnt out and I just … I need out. Even the Outdoor room can’t help me now.

I agree. I am sick of watching the students suffer.

I don't know what to do anymore to help. You don't know how easy it would be to make my way outside and just walk down the street and wait for them to come in on me.

What do either of our opinions mean anymore? We're cattle before slaughter. We're being held here waiting for them to come and finish what they've started. What is the point? Why bother? They've already won because we've allowed them. We've proven ourselves incapable of doing anything but hiding.

I admit I've felt that way a good amount of the time in the last years, but...something about being here gives me hope. Perhaps I only wish to prove my cousin wrong or Mrs. Weasley's opinion means more than it should, but...we can fight. I'm not a dab hand with a wand. I couldn't kill for them, but...perhaps...

It's been that hope that's been keeping me sane all these months. I'm losing it. I'm lashing and I'm sorry. Hope only works when we're moving toward something though. I need out of this cage, Draco. I need out.

Then let's do it. I don't know what all this waiting is for. I haven't heard from my parents in weeks --- there's nothing left to lose and everything to gain.

Other than a select few, you are the only one to give me the time of day. I'm dead serious. Pardon the pun, miss.

I don't know how Percy would feel about you calling me a Miss but how quick can you put a bag together?

I'll write Percy one. Meet me at my room when you're ready. We're going to have to make a run of it. You know if the others catch wind they're going to try and stop us.

Guess no better way to prove myself, hm?

They're going to think I kidnapped you.

I don't quite know about that.They're all going to think we're mental.

If we get caught it wouldn't be such a bad lie really. You were uncover working for them and you caught one of the dreadful, muggleborns that were working against them. They'd murder me but you'd be let back into society.

I won't lie about that nor am I watching you be killed.

We'll figure something out.

Don't make promises like that. We don't know what we're getting ourselves into.

Just hurry.
