BACKSTORY: Scorpius gets kidnapped. Draco goes to Auror Harry Potter and they search for him and find him. This is the ending.


Ten months. Finally, they would find Scorpius. Draco cried out in relief as he heard that his son's location had been discovered. Oh, what a happy day!


The Auror and former Death Eater sprinted through the halls of the abandon fort where these wretched people were keeping the young Malfoy.
"Draco," Harry panted as he fought off about ten more guards. "Get Scorpius!"
Draco nodded and ran through to the ancient labyrinth. He would find Scorpius no matter what it took.


Draco shut the door behind him, successfully blocking off the guards.
"D-Daddy..."
That voice!
The older Malfoy quickly scanned the dark room for his son.
"Scorpius!"
A smaller, blonde boy lay undressed on the ground not two meters from Draco's feet. Crossing the distance in one swift motion, he kneeled next to the little Malfoy heir.
"Oh, Scorpius," was all he could whisper as he couldn't help but notice the damage that had been done.
Scars. Stitches. Open wounds. Showing ribs. Bruises. Pale skin. Darkened eyes. Worst of all, blood dripping from his ass1...
Draco was filled with hatred and disgust as he saw how frightened, how traumatized, how hollow his son looked.
A terrifying thought hit him.
"Daddy..." Scorpius coughed pitifully.
Draco gently picked up the boy, cradling him as tears formed in his eyes. He could feel his child's trembling, either from fright or malnutrition. He heard the deep breaths that needed to be taken in order for oxygen to get to those small lungs.
"Scorpius," Draco said softly, gently rocking the boy. He knew it was too late for the Aurors and Healers. "I want you to always remember that I love you. You're daddy's little boy. You always will be."
The small, blonde boy's eyes fluttered shut. "I'm... tired... Daddy..." he murmured between pants.
Draco nodded before replying softly, "I know, Scorpius."
The small child struggled to keep his eyes open. "Daddy, w-what's happening?" His voice was barely a panicked whisper.
Draco held the boy tighter, trying to lull away his uneasiness. "Don't be afraid, Scorpius. Daddy's got you. You'll be ok. I promise. Have I ever lied to you before?"
Scorpius shook his head, willing his eyes not to close.
"Daddy," he spoke after a few seconds. "Will you sing the Perry Song?" he asked, his hands trembling violently as he held up his favorite stuffed unicorn, Perry.
Draco nodded with a watery smile. "Of course."
He gently took the stuffed unicorn and began moving him with the beat of the song. His voice was shaky as he sang.
"Hello there, my name's Perry. The world out there ain't so scary. As long as we're friends, the fun will never end. You can never be down when Perry's around."
As he sang those last lyrics, he heard the child in his arms giggle, followed by the twisting of fingers into his shirt.
Then nothing.


Hope you liked it! Sorry it's so short! Thanks for reading! :D
