"Draco Malfoy… my boy, you have caused me great disappointment. Your father told me that you would be faithful to yours truly…" I was kneeling at the presence of the Dark Lord. I could feel the evil energy seeping off him. Everything was so dark and so cold. "You forget, I can see everything you do. You want to become a death eater don't you? Well before that you need to show me exactly where your loyalties lie." I can see the anger in his crimson eyes, they pierced me. "Now go back and show me you deserve my trust. Before you go there Draco, you must learn that if you ever disobey me again then… CRUTIO!"
"SHIT!"
I woke up in a panic and I fell of the bed, I was sweating. Why was the carpet red? I must have fallen asleep in Grangers room damn! She got up all sleepy- eyed and said "Malfoy? What are you…? We didn't…? Did we…?" If my dream was really the Dark Lord sending me messages then I cannot risk being her friend "As if I would touch a filthy mudblood, especially not you Granger!" I picked up my box of CD's and stormed out. I decided to get a proper rest in my own bed. This time my dreams weren't a warning from the Dark Lord but a strange blur, a nightmare, that will haunt me forever… I was walking down to the lake and I see her, Hermione sitting there she seemed to be crying. My legs seemed to go faster as I saw this and I yelled out "Hermione!" she stood up not facing me not even turning her body and started to walk towards the lake she walked in and my legs stopped they were frozen to ground in mud. I yelled to her tried to stop her but I could do nothing. All of a sudden I hear a voice saying:
"Fell forth, destroy the source,
Cant see and my voice is
hoarse,
Trying to wash your hands off,
You should know better
than to leave us in disgust,"
Those were lyrics to 'Scream' by Slipknot, and all of a sudden I hear "Filth! Filth! You are no more than Filth! Not pure! Not pure! Cover it in mud…" then the mud started to rise and I was becoming immobilized. "… Filthy! Filthy! MUDBLOOD YOU ARE!" I heard the footsteps and I closed my eyes and then I opened them she was pale and her eyes were completely she was drenched in blood and that's when I woke up. Breathing heavily I moved to the bathroom to shower and shake of the feeling and the memory.
I went to sit near the fire and write my DADA essay on Inferi and Dementors for Snape. Everyone was so shocked to see that he was back teaching at Hogwarts after he killed Dumbledore last year after all I could do it, I'm not a killer I was only thinking of doing it to protect my family the Dark Lord gave me a second chance but I endured days of pain and torture and so did mum that's why I still remain one the Dark Lord's side, for now. Then she came down the stairs her face tearstained and you could tell she was trying to hide the fact that she was crying. This made me feel incredibly bad. Who knew I made such an impression in just one night? I got up and said "Granger? Are you ok? I didn't mean it, I just, I'm… look I didn't mean to make you cry, please don't cry over me…" she looked at me and I saw fury enter her eyes. "NOT EVERYTHING IS ABOUT YOU,FUCKING FERRET!!" she yelled and ran back to her room and I heard 'scream' blasting out of her radio. At that very moment in my mind there was the image of her face saying those lyrics over and over again. This made me think of my other dream of the Dark Lord and he said I wanted to be a Death Eater but the truth is I don't want to be. Its fathers wish that I join them, actually it's more like fathers orders that I join them. I was going to last year but the Dark Lord wanted to test me and asked me to kill Dumbledore. Just then an owl came swooping in and dropped a letter on my lap. The owl was followed by another and it dropped a box on the kitchen table. I put my letter on the couch and went to see the little box. It was addressed to Hermione. I was extremely curious but decided it was best to just stick to reading my letter. It was from my mother. It read;
To my dearest Dracy,
I want you to know that I love you so much. I wanted you to know that I am safe but I have left home because I found that your father has been seeing another woman. I'm not sure who she is but your father has been cheating on me, on us both. I will in time have set up a new home for us don't you worry I am heading towards Aunt Bella's house to sought this out. Don't you worry I love you. Love from your mother.
All at once I felt all this emotions, all her pain seeping into my heart I could fucking kill him! But how could this be so? Fathers locked in up Azkaban isn't he? I decided to write back.
Dearest mother,
I will kill him! He cannot have hurt you so. I have to ask how is he doing this? Isn't he in Azkaban please write back tell me your exact location and whether you will be ok where you are for a while. Remember even though aunt Bella is your sister she can be a bit tricky. She might offer you to the Dark Lord. Be careful P.S: mother I'm falling in love. Remember the girl I told you off that father would not approve? I think I love her! Love always Draco xoxox
I would have to wait for any news from mother and I don't know how the ass did it but he cannot hurt the one person who showed me that I have a heart. The person I loved the most. My mum.
So I decided to go give Granger her package after all it could be important. I picked the box up and went to her room. Her door was left ajar and I could just hear her. She was on her phone. She had many muggle items and that doesn't surprise me.
"I don't know Sara, my life has just gone upside down you know? I feel like I'm drowning. I'm flooded by all these emotions…"
When Hermione mentioned drowning I replayed the image of her walking into the water. She continued.
"Well yesterday I thought I had a glimmer of hope a safe guard that would keep me from drowning in sorrows. I mean I can't tell Ron or Harry… well that's because, they're too busy and I thought he had changed you know? I told you I did. Yea him… he has a name you know. But I don't think he deserves to have a title other than Prick. He broke my heart this morning. I thought he had changed but he's still the heartless monster he has been for the last few years…"
