I'm warning everyone ahead. This is a Draco centric rewrite of the series, though not with all the school years as I was planning with HtSW. I will briefly skim over the earlier years in favour of getting to the fun parts. It will also be slash, though what the pairing is, I do not know. SO if you don't like any of that idea don't read it. However it probably won't be for a while yet.
Nothing Endures
Chapter one – Sorted
Draco Malfoy smirked, and swaggered towards the sorting hat the moment his name was called after Morag MacDougal was placed into Ravenclaw, certain of where he would be placed. He sat on the stool and the Hogwarts Sorting Hat was slowly lowered onto his head. Draco felt it shift slightly on his head the moment it touched him, and then yell out his placement.
GRYFFINDOR!
Draco froze, and so did many of those in the hall of pureblood descent. No, it couldn't be true. All Malfoys went to Slytherin, with the occasional Ravenclaw. He couldn't be – no! There was no way –
"Ahem!"
Draco looked up at an impatient looking Professor McGonagall as shock took a hold. Silently he took off the hat and walked towards the table decked out in red and gold which had started clapping a while ago, started by a lone student, then picked up by the rest of the house, though most were still staring at him in intense disbelief.
Draco remained in the same shocked state throughout the remainder of the sorting, not noticing as three more students were added to what was now his house. He didn't react when the food appeared on the table, when Dumbledore stood and gave a speech, or anytime en route to the Gryffindor common room. In the dormitory, approximately five minutes after snores filled the room, a horrible thought struck Draco: what would his father say?
