Summary: Draco's been gone for nearly 6 years after the Great War ended. No one has seen him since. While travelling through Dallas, Texas and running from her abusive ex-fiancé, Harry, Ginny's caught between a strong blizzard. Her hero who comes to her rescue isn't who she would ever imagine it to be.

After the Great War, Draco couldn't stand the sight anymore of the bloodshed and death. He had to get away, anywhere would do, as long it was away from his murderous family and their evil ways.

**************************************************************************
The snow came down hard and fast, blurring the windshield of the borrowed-muggle contraption Ginny needed to cross the States. It was because of Harry, her ex-fiancé, which had her running for her life, afraid to use magic in case he detected it. She couldn't stop if she wanted to, not with Harry on her tail. She could remember it like it was yesterday, when Harry said he loved her and asked her to marry him. She said yes.what a food she had been. Everything had started out good, with Harry always by her side saying he loved her and needed her. However, soon after all that, Harry had started acting odd.possessive. He would monitor every move she made, what she wore, who she was allowed to see. Because of Harry's ways, Ginny could never hang out with her friends. Harry would always say things like, "you don't love me anymore, do you? That's why you're leaving." He would say things like that, and Ginny being the kind-hearted person she always was, was always made to feel guilty. Harry just wouldn't back off, and as a result, Ginny had no one to turn to, her friends gone as well as her most of her family.

Most of them, except Charlie and Bill had died in the Great War. Bill and Charlie were away, over seas. Harry had closed her off from her family as well. She had no one anymore, and it was all Harry's fault. Ginny hadn't realized what he had been doing, but just like the predator catching its prey, Harry had slowly closed off all her connections, leaving her vulnerable. She left him as soon as she knew what was going on, after he abused her in a physical way. He just wouldn't leave her alone. Ginny went to the Ministry to file a complaint against Harry, but no one believed that the top auror and head of the Ministry's defenses was all Ginny had made her out to believe. They believed her to be a jealous lover out for revenge. This only furthered Ginny's anger and gave her no choice but to leave and head out to start over. Only one problem, Harry was on her trail.

Now, she was stuck here, driving this muggle car through a blizzard in the middle of nowhere. Her windshields were filling up with snow and if she didn't watch were she was going, she would get into an accident. The road lights above only cast a light glimmer over the cars on the 506 highway to Dallas Texas. All of a sudden, Ginny could feel the steering wheel jerk from underneath her hands and see the care head for the large ditch on the side of the road. Put all the force she could into her foot, she slammed the brakes down, only to find them frozen from the winter chill. It was unbelievable! After all she went through, she ends up in a ditch. As the care swerved to the side of the road, the car jerked to the left, causing Ginny's head to hit the glass on her side. With a last glimpse of her snowy surroundings, Ginny fell into unconsciousness and was out like a light.
