From Darkness to Light by Gryffindorlady
Chapter one
Screams echoed throughout the eerie skies of Hogwarts as students ran to seek shelter from the war. Severus Snape as well as other Hogwarts professors led the students swiftly when he noticed one of his twins running frantically his way along with the Slytherins that kept watch over them.
"Raven hurry up young lady! Where is your brother Conner?"Severus questioned in great concern for them both.
"I don't know dad! He disappeared an hour ago. He told me he was going to the library, but he wasn't there!"Hally cried out in fear over the screaming of the other house students.
"Bloody Hell! He knows better than to pull that stunt….Mr. Goyle where is Mr.Malfoy?"Severus inquired looking down at the over weight sixth year student who suddenly gulped from the question, "Well! Where is he!"Severus drilled the boy
"P-Professor sir we don't know, that is haven't seen him since early this morning when he left the dorms quickly. Said he had something he had to do,"Goyle answered shaking in his shoes.
"Merlins beard, get inside both of you,"Severus ordered making them move quickly pondering on Goyles explanation, then remembered the letter that was sent to him from Lucius Malfoy telling him about Draco Malfoy's inheritance when he turned the age of sixteen back from the last school term. "Dear gods please tell me that this isn't a scheme to get them to surrender," he muttered under his breath heading inside the Great Hall closing its doors.
Dumbledore stood among the professors also noticing the two that was missing, his face looking solemn, but knowing what was to happen down the rough road ahead of them all. 'Harry my boy I do hope you know what you are doing,' he thought in wonder looking Hally's way watching her shake, huddling beside Millicent Bulstrode, who comforted her by trying to keep her mind off of her brother's disappearance. Tears fell down her cheeks, she was never separated from her brother ever since they found out about each other in their first year at Halloween time of the Troll attack, saving Hermione Granger out of a rough situation, now he was missing and she could not contact him from their mind link.
"Kaboom!" another explosion went off near the school this time around, making the students scream once more…
"Silence!" Dumbledore ordered quieting the students, when they heard his voice bellow out through the silence….
" Hally Potter! Show yourself!" Voldemort boomed the demand; every student turned, and looked at her in complete and total shock.
"Tom Riddle! You will not have your demands met….."
"She either speaks, show her ….lovely face, or her brother is doomed Dumbledore!" he hissed his threat, when everyone heard Harry's voice "Hally help! Please help me, he's going to kill me!" he begged from the other side of the door.
Hally jumped up in fear running towards the doors to help her brother being stopped by Severus "No Raven!" he yelled
"Dad please! Please let me help Harry!" she begged beginning to sob once more
"No Raven….
"Severus remember what we spoke about. Let her go" Dumbledore requested making him catch his meaning.
"Albus….Sigh….yes headmaster" Severus relented letting his adopted daughter go seeing her run opening the doors hiding the pain in his face.
Hally opened the doors seeing her brother grin at her…an evil grin
"Told you it would work" he smirked her way. Her eyes went wide from his words, then seen Draco Malfoy standing beside him as well as his father Lucius Malfoy grinning evilly at her.
"Hello little one I believe you belong to someone here now, take your claim to your home young Malfoy and be sure that she yields to you" went the order from the dark lord
Draco snagged Hally swiftly before she could scream and run from him being takened from the school grounds.
She struggled as best as she could to try to get away from him, however his strength was impeccable since their last encounter, this time he was stronger than Hally.
"Let me go!" she shrieked, trying to pull out of his grasp, when his grip tightened like a muggle vice grip whirling her around close to his face glaring down at her.
"You can try to fight me this time little Potter, but you will not win this fight!" he sneered at her seeing the fear in her eyes, then felt her shake in horror from his words. He slowly touched her right cheek watching her flinch from his touch before she struggled once more giving him no choice, but to knock her out with the sleeping drought that was prepared just in case the situation happened, covering her nose with the black silk cloth feeling her body go limp as her eyes closed seeing blackness.
He observed her lovely features taking them into his memory while he lifted her light body up into his arms 'now little one you will not fight me this time' he thought grinning triumphantly carrying her away.
Voldemort looked at Dumbledore, eyes piercing before he turned to leave the school,
"You'll have your school for now Dumbledore, however this is just a taste to come" he hissed loudly, the students whispered in confusion, then looked Harry's way glaring at him for betraying his twin sister to the dark lord watching him stand there in silence.
"Tom Riddle! She must return! Her schooling must continue as agreed!" Dumbledore reigned, shocking the other students
Voldemort gave out an evil laugh before he left outside of the school
"She will return as agreed Dumbledore, however changed to his liking" he assured him heading out of the doors, not looking back.
Every student suddenly stood up to attack Harry when they were stopped "Calm yourselves everyone Harry did not betray anyone here" Dumbledore explained to them.
An eruption of complaints rose just then.
"How can you say that after Malfoy took poor Hally away in front of us all!"
"Why are you upholding Potter after what he done ….
"Silence! Mr. Potter's so called betraying was a front! He, the professors as well as I had spoken of this ahead of time. Mr. Malfoy has also discussed this with us all with his families' presence over Ms. Potter. I am sure everyone here has known about Mr.Malfoy's inheritance, seeing that he is a vampire. You also know of his searching for his mate, am I correct?" Dumbledore questioned seeing nods from Severus's house, when Hermione spoke out making several jump slightly.
"Professor Snape is Hally ….M-Malfoy's mate sir?" Hermione inquired hearing murmurs from the other students as they looked up waiting for the reply.
"I am afraid so Miss Granger" Severus answered noticing the two Weasely children's faces go into shock from the answer he gave them.
Malfoy Manor two hours later
Narcissa Malfoy bustled around the manor, making sure that everything was perfect for their soon to be newest member of the Malfoy family. She wanted the girl to feel welcomed so she wouldn't be frightened after hearing Draco's explanation of why he knocked the dear girl out, Lucius watched his wife's anticipation eyes gleaming over her ranting.
"Narcissa, everything is perfect, relax and sit down" Lucius chuckled, she gave him a look of annoyance, then realized he was right giggling lightly.
"frightened over our son…
"My dear no one can blame her for that one it was a sneak attack upon her, and he didn't help in the matters either exploding some of the grounds scaring her and the students just to get her out of the Great Hall. Not to mention the looks we gave her in the process didn't give us points either" Lucius explained in great details from the ambush.
Draco came in minutes later raking his left hand through his platinum blonde hair remembering Hally's chocolate brown eyes, they looked like they would melt into warm, sweet pools if she was touched or caressed the right way. His parents noticed his anxiety, and eagerness to want to turn the girl, not to mention bond with her.
Lucius cleared his throat getting his attention "patience is a virtue son, besides there is still that fear we must get through to let her know that she will not be harmed by any of us here…..
They heard banging above them just then, " She's awakened finally I see" Lucius commented hearing Hally scream, begging to be set free.
"Lucius she sounds frightened"Narcissa exclaimed as they continued to listen to the screaming, until they heard sobbing coming from the girl.
"Draco I believe now would be best to try to talk to you soon to be wife" Lucius suggested watching the sixteen year old boy head upstairs.
Draco opened the door finding Hally huddled in a corner sobbing quite a bit as he closed the door, making sure it was locked tightly. He strode over towards her stopping right in front of where she was, looking down at her intently.
Hally sniffled softly looking up at the boy, shaking in fear, eyes wide. He reached down to gently touch her…. " No! Don't touch me!" she screamed in fear, trying to get away when he pounced on her holding her still.
"No one is going to harm you Hally! Calm down!" he yelled over her screams
"You're trying to kill me! No! Let go!" she wailed
"No I'm not! I'll explain if you'll just calm down!" he yelled once more
"Liar! Like My brother, you both are traitors….
"Your brother did not betray you Hally! No one did! It was all Planned before this by him, your father, the professors, and Dumbledore!" Draco yelled again, only this time she stopped her screaming, listening to his words. She heard him sigh in relief at last loosening his tight grip on her before he continued to explain.
"First of all you know that I am a vampire, secondly you know that I have been searching for my mate, You're my mate Hally. This was all done because you never gave us any choice, but to. It is up to you Hally, whether you want to believe it or not. Your brother only did this as a front, he never betrayed you ever." He explained seeing her eyes wonder about listening to his every word he spoke to her at that moment. He got up letting her sit up, then held his hand out to her to help her up on her feet, she was reluctant at first, then slowly took hold as he pulled her up to her feet .
"We don't mean you any harm Hally, I just wanted you to know that. Whenever you are ready, my mother would like to meet you downstairs" He informed her waiting for her reply. She only gave him a slight nod, still feeling reluctant letting him lead her out to go downstairs into their sitting room parlor.
They went down, when Narcissa quickly went to her side, Hally flinched slightly.
"Oh I won't harm you dear" Narcissa assured her, Hally looked up into her eyes before calming down a bit more, then noticed Lucius sitting not so far away on a black leather sofa watching her every move.
She backed up a tad bit, " No one is going to harm you young lady, especially here" Lucius told her seeing her relax at last, but still alerted over the situation.
"I take it you had explained everything to her Draco?" Lucius inquired breaking the ice first.
"Yes father I have" Draco answered him. Hally remained silent for the moment, then noticed the rooms' décor taking everything in with her eyes. The walls were a warm green color with grey trimmings for the base, the furniture was of black leather, however a soft feel to them, there were shelves on either side of the staircase filled with many books of different types( Hally was intrigued by this, for she was a bookworm herself), She seen books of curses, hexes, charms, potions, many to which were quite advanced, but to Hally she could understand perfectly being a little prankster along side her brother making her own up herself, putting several first years up in the hospital ward with colored faces, or they were leaping around like frogs, getting several students laughing over the harmless pranks. She then realized that she was being watched by them, she blushed lightly before looking away.
"It seems Narcissa that she is impressed by the décor" Lucius commented
Narcissa beamed with pride from his words.
"What will happen to me if I..I.."
They caught on from what she was trying to ask them, "You will change a bit, but just only to adjust to your new life, You'll still be able to eat normally of course, we are of course are of the rare breed of vampires. And you'll still be able to have children as well" Lucius explained as she noticed Draco looking at her intently.
"And after this is over you will be allowed back to school along with our son of course. We certainly will not interfere in your schooling" Lucius added letting her sink it all in slowly.
Hally listened to his every word before a house elf popped in informing them that lunch was served ,popping back out. "are you hungry Miss Potter?" Lucius asked her
"A little bit sir" she answered quietly "good. Son will you escort her to our dining hall for lunch, unless of course you would like to continue this conversation" Lucius requested before getting up and leaving with his wife.
The two sat there looking at each other in silence until Draco broke the silence "what are your thoughts?" He questioned her "Yes, why me? Why not any other girl at Hogwarts!" Hally demanded suddenly with heat in her eyes after getting over her shock
"Because you were the one that haunted my dreams" Draco answered seeing her face go pale from his answer.
He narrowed his eyes suspiciously from her reaction watching her eyes go downwards moving back and forth remembering some secret she kept to herself except to her brother
"Is something wrong?" He questioned her carefully, "No" Hally answered quickly avoiding his stare as he stood up then headed towards her.
"What are you hiding from me?" He drilled
"Nothing!" she answered quickly once more
"Your lying" he accused seeing her squirm under his stare
"Your nutters….."
He took hold of her swiftly, making her look up with wide eyes
"What are you hiding from me Hally….,
He looked into her eyes seeing what she was hiding from him
"So I haunt your dreams as well, my it is true on what they say about a vampires mate" he smirked seeing her squirm in his grasp.
"Let go, let go…mmft!" Hally's voice was silenced by his lips, he felt her fight him at first, then felt her relax in his arms. He took her down onto the sofa burying his fingers in her soft raven, red streaked hair, his wild hunger taking over control as his lips made their way to the nape of her neck , his fangs appearing as he made sure her neck was exposed just enough, biting down into her soft flesh suckling gently, never giving Hally any pain hearing her gasp a soft breath allowing him to make her his forever.
