Rationale - This piece is inspired from a challenge set down by a friend. I won't say what it was since it deviates from it too much. I seem to be quite rebellious.(Although Jo you'll notice that it doesn't feature Snape or Lucius. I hope you like whoI chose!)

I Thought I Knew

Prologue

Only silence and the feel of skin moving to fulfil lustful fantasies.

No words of love, just a hand caressing its way down a naked torso, or a light feathery touch on a milky white breast. Desperate orgasmic hands grasping at the red waves of hair. This wasn't love, this wasn't a relationship, and this was just an arrangement. True, it couldn't be with anyone else except her.

I've touched the darkness, Draco.

I'd forgotten what she'd told me. I'm beginning to understand it all now. She has the one thing I crave and she needs to share it. Otherwise it will all be lost and nothing could change. No one else would understand, that's why she chose me.

I was wrong.

She drew me to her to tease and taunt and drive me wild. I wanted to corrupt her and taste her purity, but she had none. It was eaten long ago, the snake within her.

She took me and sculpted my soul. Now I know not of the shadows that will confuse and tempt me from the truth. Now I see the truth and it's her.

I know the other side.

He left her empty and powerless, but he taught her and she built herself a new soul from the tattered remains of her heart. You have to know the darkness to see the light. Her light was glorious; she shone like a sunset of pinks and reds. Her time with me was the sunset, the time she finally said goodbye to the old day. She was moving into the night where she would rest and build her strength to fight the new day ahead.

She would fight the nightmare and take him down. She knew him better than Harry did, they had shared a soul. She knew his faults and learned his mistakes. She would be the sunset.

I've felt the power.

She will be the morning light and lead us all to the new world. A clean world. Pure.

Ginevra.
