When Things Don't Go According to Plan

Chapter 1: Summer

Draco's POV:

It was the last day of Hogwarts before the summer break and Draco was not looking forward to his summer at all. It was the summer before his seventh year. This was the summer he was to receive the Dark Mark and be brought into the Dark Lords inner circle. (A/N: I don't know when his birthday is so I'm going to say its on July 4 ok? Okay!) He was going to be of age on July 4, that was in 4 days. That would be when he would get the mark. Draco surprisingly did not want to be a death eater but had no other choice. He also did not want to be one of Dumbledore's pets. He was stuck. Either way he would die in something he didn't believe in. He decided he would run away. He had no other choice. He loathed his father and hated Dumbledore and all he stood for even more. He figured if he ran away he wouldn't be forced to do anything he would regret.

As soon as he got off the train he saw his father. He knew that he wouldn't be able to run then like he had hoped. He decided to wait until he was home. That way he could say goodbye to his mother. He didn't hate her like he hated his father but knew that she would never leave him. With saying goodbye he wouldn't say it to her face of course but in his own way. He still had no idea on where he would be going. He thought about this on the long drive to his manor. When he got there he went to his room and devised a plan. He would leave at midnight then next night. He would then floo to the leaky cauldron, from there he would drain all of his savings so as not to be tracked. He would then head away from Britain. He still didn't know where he would live but knew that he would be sought after. He had looked up charms to change his appearance so as not to be recognised too easily. The next night at precisely midnight he woke up. He had already packed and put it under his bed. As he was about to turn the door knob to leave his room, he heard a pecking. He turned around and saw a snowy owl, he had heard the dream team talking about it before, her name was Hedwig. He was wondering what Potter would be doing sending him a letter now of all times. He sighed and walked over to the window to let her in. When he did she flew over to his shoulder and held out her leg with a letter on it. He looked at it and saw that his name was on the front. He turned it over and read it carefully. What he saw was not what he expected.

Hermione's POV:

She had gone home after her fifth year to home that was very different then when she left. Her mother had left her father, leaving her alone with him. She didn't know where he mother was, her father had began drinking throughout the school year and was now a full fledged drunk. When she stepped off of the platform she didn't see either of her parents anywhere so she figured they were just busy. She called a cab and made her way home. When she got there her father was in a drunken rage. He said that if it wasn't for her than her mother wouldn't have left him. He then hit her, from then on it was a daily ritual wake up, be yelled at, get beaten eat go to sleep. She broke down after only 2 days, she devised a plan to escape to the burrow. She packed all of her things put them in her trunk, made it feather-light, shrunk it and put it in her pocket. She did these things at night so as not to be caught by her father. The next night at precisely midnight she woke up wrote a note to her father telling him she was not angry with him but had to leave. She was about to turn the doorknob when she heard a pecking. She turned around and saw Pig at her window. She quickly walked over and opened her window to let him in. When she did he flew over and landed on her shoulder. She took off the note and looked at the front. She saw her name on it, she turned it over and quickly read the note. She was surprised what was on the note she had thought it would be from Ron but she was mistaken.
