The Truth Lies Beneath
By LadySlythindor
Prologue
The two adolescent's stumbled down the steep, dank passageway, tripping an occasionally staggering over one another. The darkness made the pair even more disoriented, as they attempted to make their way to the end of this tunnel of agony. Narrow walls made movement near impossible and jagged rocks emitting from the ceiling of the tunnel making the pair have to stoop low in order to avoid loosing an eye.
"Ow! Granger! That's my hand your bloody foot is on! It's not a bleeding stepping stone! And your hair is practically suffocating me back here! Bleary hell can't you control that atrocity?!!"
Hermione grunted in response to Malfoy's ceaseless complaints. Obviously he didn't do well in dire situations. Nearly tripping Hermione grasped at the wall desperately for support. Too bad the wall suddenly became Malfoy's rock-hard chest.
Prying her hands from him and holding her steady he gasped, "Dear Lord Granger! Right here? Right now? In the dank putrid passageway? I knew you Griffins were kinky but-," Hermione cut him off.
"Shut up you prick!" Hermione could just hear the smirk in his voice and she couldn't take it for another minuet. "It's so bleary dark in this bleary cavern I can't see a blasted thing in this bl-!" she tripped again. Falling forward, she attempted to catch herself but there was nothing below her!
Hermione screamed. She was free falling downward, what felt like hundreds of feet into a dark cave. She couldn't help but wonder how she got herself into this mess. Suddenly she saw a dim light. She could see the ground rapidly approaching and she prepared herself for landing. She hit the ground with bone-shattering force. Luckily for her, the floor was thickly covered with brown fuzz that smelt putrid. Checking herself for cuts and bruises she heard Malfoy's screams as he swooped and gracelessly landed beside her.
"Have a nice trip?" Hermione joked humorlessly. Draco sneered and dusted himself off. The pair checked themselves for cuts and bruises. They thought they were all clear until Hermione gasped.
"Malfoy!" she exclaimed, "I'm bleeding!" Not even flinching Draco continued to study the nails on his stepped on hand.
"Yea," he started, "Chicks tend to do that. But don't worry granger it's perfectly natural"
Hermione blinked, huffed and glared at Malfoy, before angrily smacking him in the head. "Not like that you pounce!" Malfoy rubbed his sore head as he smirked up at Granger, chuckling softly to himself.
Hermione groaned running her hands through her hair. "Look Malfoy this is serious! Theirs Blood and Fuzz all over my—are you paying attention?!"
'Obviously not.' Malfoy was looking behind her his eyes wide and face contorted with unspoken horror. Hermione's brows furrowed curiously as she looked behind her. Hermione's jaw dropped in shock and fear.
Springing to his feet Malfoy grabbed Grangers hand as he bounded for the source of light before the owner of this cave came back. How the hell did he get himself into this mess?!
