The Corenthius Charm
Chapter One: Just Like Always
POOM! The sound echoed through the room as the silvery-blond-haired boy's body slammed right into the marble wall. He fell to the floor with a groan and a thud. Why? Why does he do this to me? The man in front of him lowered his wand. He, half-mockingly, began to speak. "Honestly Draco," he began. He shook his head in disappointment. "When will you ever learn?" He crouched down as he continued. "Accepting who you are and how this family runs would make your life much more pleasant. Resisting will only bring you more pain." The boy called Draco only looked up at his cruel, Death-eater father. Anyone in the world could see he was petrified of him, doing his best too hold back the heavy tears threatening to falls from his eyes.
Lucius subconsciously shoved a lock of long, silvery-blond hair away from his face before grabbing Draco from the front collar of his robes and heaving him onto his feet. His wand was quickly raised again to point at his son's bruised and bloody body. "I'll give you one more chance to accept who you are and what kind of family you come from. Become a Death-eater, Draco. Join the Dark Lord and his loyal servants and be great," Draco was surprised his legs hadn't given way from beneath him after being thrown around so much. However, he suddenly felt dizzy. As he heard his father's voice move further and further away he shouted, "I would never become part of your filthy group of Death-eater scum! No matter what you do to me!" Then before he knew it he was back on the floor, unconscious with his father looming over him, his eyes now filled with malice.
Suddenly he felt a voice pound into his head. "CRUCIO!" Draco let out a deafening scream in agony. His entire body felt engulfed in flame. It was as if acid now flowed through his veins. His entire body was writhing, twitching uncontrollably and his head spinning with the worst kind of migraine you could ever imagine. It felt as if it would never end. Then suddenly it was over. Though only a few seconds had passed, it felt as if an eternity of pain just went by. He clutched his head which still felt like it was about to explode. His entire body continued to twitch as he gasped for breath. He could no longer hold back the tears. At the sight this, Lucius looked at him with disgust and kicked him hard in the stomach leaving Draco gasping even more for breath.
Draco felt himself burning with anger. He had known the question before his father had even opened his mouth. He wanted to do something, escape somehow, but there was nothing he could do. With neither wand nor fist could he defend himself. His father had taken his wand and he was defenseless. There was no way he could ever win, and even so, he wasn't planning on saying yes, no matter what the consequences. He couldn't. Not after what happened last year. Last year, the girl he liked.and flirted with a lot, (much to her displeasure ^_~) lost her only direct family. her father. How did he die? At the hand of a female Death-eater, with a heart much like Lucius': none. He couldn't stand the thought of himself doing that to someone. The very thought made him sick. He could see the look on her face if he had ever turned up at Hogwarts with the Dark Mark on his arm. It was a look of utter disgust and disbelief. For she was his friend but never liked him the way he did her (which seemed to bother her a lot considering how much Draco hit on her) ::painful smile:: But he knew that she'd utterly hate him if he was ever to become a Death-eater. Besides.he knew that any second now they'd be coming. His friends. They were bound to know by now that it had happened again and they'd get him out of here and back to Hogwarts. Just like always.
