This is the first of many of these "one shot" kind of story excerpts that most authors have on here. I'm bad about drifting from idea to idea and never really lingering. Some of these will be shorter than others, some will just suck. But if i don't post them here, no one will ever get a chance to see them.
These are Jo's toys. I own nothing.

"Dracodin"
"Come on Potter! What's a puff like you going to do? Nothing! That's all you ever do. You sit there like a lump with your head in the dirt. You're nothing, but a freak who doesn't deserve to be at a school with people like me" Draco pushed at the the boy, the thunderstorm raging outside left the hallway rather calm. "Hey Vince, didn't I hear you say you were going to show his girl what a real man can do for her?"
Before the thick headed teen could respond, they heard the last thing they ever expected to hear out of 'Hufflepuff Harry' Potter. It started as a chuckle, his shoulders bounced a bit and he threw his head back and nearly howled with laughter.
"Draco Malfoy, you are truly an idiot." He said between laughs, calming himself down. "You have made mistake after mistake over the years but I ignore them." the blond teen starts to retort but is stopped by a hand around his throat. "First year, you attacked my family but I let it slide." He stepped a little closer to his bully. "Second year, you got my best friend killed with your father's book. I moved past that."
Draco sends a look of panic to Crabbe and Goyle but before they can respond, they are held in place, the stone floor enveloping their ankles.
"We both know what you and your mother did last year, there's no sense in opening those wounds again. But tonight..." Harry takes his free hand and lightly pats the blonde's cheek with his open palm.
"Draco, you made one mistake too many tonight. Want to guess what it was this time? I'll give you a hint. It wasn't mentioning my Millie." He leaned in close to the blond boy's ear, Draco's face turning a nice shade of red as he tried to struggle. "You started talking to the wrong Harry" The scion of House Malfoy pales a bit as the man holding his throat looks down at the ground.
His grip shifted as he lowered his once tormentor to his knees. Seemingly out of nowhere, a knife glimmers and appears against his pale forehead. Harry pulled back a bit and spoke in a near whisper, the sound echoing in the hallway as if carried by the storm itself "It's said that Odin gave his eye for wisdom. I can't help but be envious of what you are about to learn."
Not even the thunder could keep quiet the sounds of enlightenment.
Draco Malfoy would never forget that in this world there truly are demons of both the light and dark. He would always consider himself lucky. Lucky that he was given the chance to learn from his childhood mistakes, lucky that he could set things right. It was written that "Mad Eye Malfoy" started on his path to became one of the most vicious and loyal taskmasters of the new guard after his moment of clarity; but to Draco, he was still working to atone for the sins of his forefathers.

Again, these will be little bits and pieces that don't quite fit in with other stories, or could eventually become them. If anyone is interested in expanding on anything i post in this file, let me know.
