I really hope you guys like this. It is inspired by the fanfic "Just a game." By Ellalah. Definitly check it out.

Disclaimer: Oh yeah, I own this...in my dreams.


The girl had been seen by everybody. At different times,in different places. But everyone,whether they were a Slytherin, Gryffiondor, Ravenclaw, or Hufflepuff, saw her. It did not matter. No one knew this girl. She did not belong to a house or a club. She did not play quidditch. She only would appear to a person who was alone. It had started happening like this.

Draco Malfoy trembled down the corridor and sat in a corner. The stress of being a death eater was eating him alive. He was terrified, his aunt was insane, and she was her only mentor besides Snape. No one cared that he was distant, everyone had just given up. He was the new resident lunatic. Even loony had friends. But he was alone. Alone in this cold, dark time as if someone was controlling there lives as if it was a game. A sick, twisted game with ever changing rules and teams. He wanted the game to stop. It might as well just be best to end it. He took out his wand and pointed it at him. And then the glow appeared.

"What are you doing?" the girl asked in a haunting tone. She was surronded by a blue light. Her skin was very pale, her eyes electric blue, and her hair seemed as if it was darker than black it self.

"Who are you?" Draco trebled

"I asked what you were doing?" She stated again, her eyes narrowing.

"Yo...You ddon't understand. You don't know what I have to do." He said, still trembling.

"I know lots of things."

"Well you don't know what I have to do, alright?"

"You could just tell me, I have time. Not really any thing to go to." She stated calmly, staring off into space.

"I tell you after you tell me who the bloody hell you are." He glared, standing up.

" I am a lot of things, Draco Malfoy. Your hopes, your dreams, your fears. I know them all. I know them for a lot of people. This war is damaging the minds of all of you students, all of you slowly going insane. Seeing people drop dead, and fight the death, and torture their own family members. It is very terrible, and we are doing things we are not proud of. From both sides. But I have seen things even the dark lord himself does not know happen in this world. For everyone, muggle or wizard. And it is very awful that so many of you think you should end yourself for it. You have done nothing wrong. You are young. Do not poison your soul when so many things could be much worse, now what is it you need to tell me?"

"The dark lord asked me to kill Dumbledore. Kill. And my aunt is pressuring me to do it. She's insane, bloody mad. What if I turn into her? A down right nutter. I'm scared. No one has talked to me in weeks. I'm alone, in this sick and twisted world. And no one will help me." He said, almost crying now.

" I agree, sometimes the world can seem as if it wants you to die of madness. But you must not cower away and end it. Life is a game, with ever changing rules and strategies. But does there always have to be only one winner? Instead of ending it for yourself, finish the game. Play your pieces well. And then claim the prize and celebrate. Be a winner of life and then part this world happily and great death as a happy new beginning. Your turn is not over Draco. Use it well."

And with that she vanished. No one would ever know where she came from, or how she knew the things she knew. Or why she was just at Hogwarts. But she helped the players win the game, and would continue to keep setting up the pieces and helping everyone claim victory, as long as hogwarts existed.


review? Please. It means a lot.
