Unbind Me: I’ll write a drabble about your character freeing mine, or the other way around

Narcissa shouldn’t have found it so funny. Really, she should have been mad at her children. But Narcissa would have been lying if she said the sight of Ella Mckinnon strapped to the wall didn’t amuse her a little. Ok, a lot. They had managed to tape over her mouth, so the only sound Ella could make was an angry grumble.

It was what Ella got for offering to babysit.

Trying hard to keep her face stern, even though she desperately wanted to laugh, Narcissa looked down at her children. They were in turn smiling up at her, the very picture of innocence.

“Which one of you did this?”

They all shuffled their feet, not wanting to own up to the crime.

“Well you can all go to your rooms then.”

Leaving Ella still stuck to the wall, helpless, Narcissa herded the four of them out of the room. But as she deposited each one in their room, she slipped them a chocolate frog, making sure to remind them not to tell their father.

A good ten minutes had passed before Narcissa made her way back to the dining room. Ella, of course, had not moved. She just looked more pissed off. After a flick of her wand and a few words, Ella fell loose and tumbled to the ground. Narcissa smiled blankly at her, secretly pleased that Ella had fallen with such a thud.
