A/N: I know who I was thinking, even if it isn't cannon. Still, it could apply to anyone, muggle or wizard. Werewolf/Giant Squid. Hell, the giant squid would be kind of funny.
She sat at the crossroads, staring out into the mist, cursing her lack of sight. She could not go back the way she came, she had come too far to turn back now. Her only options were to go either to the right or to the left.
Both ways, she knew, were fraught with difficulty and danger. One would alienate her parents, one would alienate her lover. One would make her happy, one would make other people happy. One way is life. One way is death.
Only she can decide.
And she has decided just to sit at the crossroads.

A/N: Nah, got nothing.
"On the count of three."
She nodded and took a deep breath.
He counted, "One, two, three. Push!"
Panting and red-faced, she pushed, screaming with the effort.
"Come on, baby, just a little more." He was trying to encourage her, "Just one more. Push!"
Hermione glared at Ron, "I am pushing, you moron."
"Excuse me." Ron turned around to see Luna at his elbow. Stunned, he watched as she walked up to the door, turned the handle, and pulled the door open.
Hermione growled in frustration, turning to face Ron, "Ronald Weasley, you are a dead man!"
Ron just groaned.

Just breathe, Molly.

It will all be alright.

Deep breath, come on, you can handle this.

You don't want to scream, Molly.

Alright, maybe you do.

So scream already.
In.
Just let it all out.
Out.
Let the neighbors hear you.
In.
What neighbors?
Out.
Good point. So there is no one to hear you scream.

Ignoring Author's restraining hand, Molly yanked the door open and stuck her head outside, "Charlie, Bill, Fred, George, and Ronald Weasley! If you slam the door one more time, so help me, you will regret it!"
Title: Intervention

Challenge: Direction
Word Count: 100
A/N: Just torturing Theo some more.
Draco pillowed his head on the bar, blearily blinking in the dim light. When a hand snaked in and grabbed his glass, he growled, "I'm not finished."
Theordore's lip curled, "Oh, yes, you are."
"What the hell do you want, Nott?" Draco slurred, reaching for the glass.
Moving his hand, Theodore glared at Draco, "I want you to change."
"What?"
He couldn't believe he was doing this, "The direction you are taking will only lead to your death."
Draco took the glass from Theodore, "Why the fuck do you care?"
"I don't." Theodore snapped back, "But Pansy loves you, Malfoy."
