A/N I did dtart this story on another account about a year ago but I lost that account so I made a new one, I really hope everyone enjoys this story, it came to me in a dream. Rated T for violence and wizarding slurs.

Chapter one: It begins.

There were two kinds of people living in that complex they called the safety house. The first, much to the surprise of the wizarding world, was Muggleborns or as the other group so fondly called them Mudbloods. The other group was Purebloods. They were the ones with pedigree, proper wizarding manors and a proper wizarding upbringing. They called it the safety house because it was a place where Pureblood teenagers could learn the dark arts safely, without the fear of repercussions. Voldemort had this place built especially for that. But there was a reason for Muggleborns being there, but they weren't there to die that was for sure. But for this to make any sense the story will have to go back exactly one week before it can move forward at all.

Hermione awoke with a start, frazzled, upset, and nervous. Today was the day of her graduation. She would graduate top of her class in every subject, but she would share the title of top in Potions with a certain ferret named Draco Malfoy. Even the thought set her on edge, she would accept the top honors with said ferret and they would have to dance together at the ball prepared in honor of the graduation. She was Head Girl, not at all to her surprise. But what had surprised her was that Draco Malfoy was Head Boy. Malfoy that git, he was always ruining everything that ever made her happy! But she couldn't let him get her down, this was her day and it was going to stay that way. No one, not even Voldemort could ruin this day she thought to herself, and she was right for the most part.

"Granger," Malfoy sneered. "What brings you down to the dungeons?"

"Can it Malfoy," he could take that sneer and shove it up his arse! "Oh what brings me here? Oh nothing really I just wanted to see if you were here so I could sneak a kiss, honestly Malfoy do you even have a brain? I can't believe you topped Potions with me! I'm here because Dumbledore told me that you need to be present with me when we have breakfast in his office this morning. Seeing as you never showed at the time I gave you I came looking, sorry to say but I found you."

That girl knew how to push his buttons! Oh how he loathed her, but why not have some fun while he still can? "You know Granger, since Dumbledore and I last talked he seemed to give me the impression that he wants us to move in together! Well honestly I don't want to live with a Mudblood like you, you could get some of your dirt on me but he wants me to be open to possibilities so I've been looking at houses for us Granger." He gave her a devilish smile and turned to exit for Dumbledore's office without another word.

"You know Malfoy it doesn't sound like a bad idea; I mean how could I get a pig like you any dirtier? Plus if Dumbledore thinks me keeping you in line will help Harry win the war then why not? After all I am the only girl here who can match, and best you in wit."

How infuriating could one girl be? Well fine if that is how she wants to play it, then two can play that game, Draco thought to himself. "Fine, true you are the smartest girl here and you are pretty easy on the eyes, but if you want to keep up with me you'll have to prove it somehow."

"Ok Malfoy how?" This is an interesting turn of events, Hermione thought while struggling to restrain a giggle.

"Prove that you are the best girl for me, line up all my ex-girlfriends and we will run some tests, if you come out on top then I'm all yours." He was an arrogant fool, he knew that she would win by a landslide but he hoped to catch her on a technicality. Hermione on the other hand was determined to prove something to herself, and there was no way in hell Malfoy would stop her from her goal.

"Chocolate Frog." Hermione was so furious at Malfoy she could barely say the password in a normal tone.

…

"Ah Mr. Malfoy how good of you to take the time your of your oh so cramped schedule to meet with Ms. Granger and I." Dumbledore had said it so coldly people would think hell had frozen over. "Now you may wonder why I've called you here today on this oh so important day of graduation. Don't ask questions until I've finished. I've just gotten word that Vodemort has finished work on a particularly intriguing project. He calls it the safety house. It has been created for the use of teaching pureblood teens the dark arts. The house will also become a place for Muggleborns to be of service to Voldemort after he's captured them. This is rather disturbing news I've received, but I trusted it to you in the hopes you would take it well."

"Professor, I'm not sure I understand. Are you asking if Malfoy and I are willing to become part of this so called safety house?"

"You are very sharp Ms. Granger, I had been planning on asking you two if you were willing to participate. But you will need to trust one another first. That is why I have decided that for the next week, when everyone is gone you two will remain here at the castle to form a closer bond, and to decide whether or not you want to be a part of this experiment of mine."

"But, Professor does it have to be Granger who goes with me?" Draco said with distain clearly ringing throughout his voice.

"Well yes, Voldemort will only keep some of the Muggleborns alive. The ones he feels to be useful to his effort. Hermione will be a nice bargaining chip for Mr. Potter so he will most definitely keep her around and you Mr. Malfoy would end up dead if you refused to become a Death Eater so going to the safety house would be the best course of action for you. I know you don't like Voldemort's cause Draco but you need to do this to live, do you understand me?"

"Yes sir, I understand perfectly."

"Professor I was wondering where we will be staying in the castle, seeing as after today I'm no longer a Gryffindor and Dra- Malfoy is no longer a Slytherin it makes no sense as to why we would stay in our dormitories, plus we are supposed to be spending most of our time together-"

"Ms. Granger before you complete that thought I believe I just heard you almost call Mr. Malfoy by his given name instead of his sir name, this has sparked my curiosity, would you please elaborate for me?"

"Not until I'm given my proper answer, where will we be staying?"

"I'm not sure if you are away Hermione, but Hogwarts has a special quarter for people like us." Draco hated calling her Hermione but he knew it would drive her crazy. "I assume we will be staying in the dormitories for the house of Carvanteon, home of the lost and in need of help."

"Malfoy, don't you ever call me Hermione again!" But she knew that a shiver of joy went down her spine when he said it, she was so longing for him to do it again. "Carvanteon is a myth! There is no way Ifirion Carvanteon was ever at Hogwarts, she attended Rigion in the colonies, or what now is known as the USA."

"What you say is true Ms. Granger, Ifirion did attend Rigion, actually she attended with me, we were in the same class. Something of an item or so people said, but to me Ifirion was nothing more than a good friend, who was lost and needed some help. She did not make a tower nor did she make her own secret house-"

"See Draco! I was right!" Hermione said with a haughty laugh.

"Not quite Ms. Granger, you didn't let me finish. Ifirion never did any of those things, she never stepped foot in Great Britain in all of her 80 years, but I did and in fact I created the house of Carvanteon in honor of her. It is not recognized as a normal house, but it has two bedrooms and you will share a common room. The house elves will bring you room service and Hermione they will bring you any book that you may desire. You should seldom leave the dormitory unless you would like to speak with one of the professors and of course you can go to Hogsmeade granted you go together and you don't leave one another's side."

"Ok so basically I have one week to make Draco trust me, and in return he has to earn my trust? The former sounds much easier than the latter, but I'll try my best. We will bring down Voldemort even if I have to live in that safety house forever!"

"Hermione I said it better myself. Professor, we are in." Hermione was in shock, they were on first name terms couldn't have, and he had genuinely confused, he had no idea why he was being so nice to Hermione, nor could he fathom why he tingled when she spoke his first name, complimented her, there wasn't a sneer, or sarcasm or anything it was a real compliment! Draco was so
