Lifeless eyes stared back at Kagome, '...I...daddy, I...I'm so sorry!' She shook her head, staring at her father who'd been none the wiser, she felt tears burning a path down her cheeks. Beside him, Lance was lying face down with his face turned away from her. His wand had fallen away from his form and was of no use to him own wand wand was held limply between her fingers as she tried to digest what just took place. 'No...I wouldn't do this...'she stared at the bodies, her mind arguing over how fierce a duelist her father and Lance were. Thinking about it, her dragons were no where in this mind numbing vision she was seeing, and she knew Fáfnir had followed her down stairs.
Forcing herself to take deep breaths, she chuckled and calmed her nerves. Steeling her mind, and allowing the image to sink in before coming to the acceptance that this was not real. She couldn't see her father, she couldn't see Lance, she had to leave before the illusion wore off and created a fracture in the implemented memory. Running to the broom closet, she took her Nimbus, grabbing a small shoulder bag that she'd packed with a few of her things the night before, she ran quickly past the dead bodies of Lance and her father before making her way outside, she felt the sting of the rain beat down on her. Her heart was aching from the memory, be it real or not. Double checking that she had her wand, she mounted her broom and was off. Wearing simple pajama bottoms that were black, and a button up pajama top, she was freezing in the rain...all the better though.

Draco was sitting across from his father with a book open in his lap, the thunderstorm outside their windows was soothing to listen to, the crackling of the fire in their fireplace was one that promised serenity and relaxation. Nothing was to go wrong for a good many hours. Draco had been keeping in touch with Kagome via the enchanted parchment she and her father used while they were at school. She'd given him the one she used and had been writing to him nightly with her fathers. The last they spoke, she'd told him that she would most likely arrive sometime tomorrow evening.
Or so that was the plan.
"Ceely! Bring a towel to the foyer!"
The hurried and panicked sound of his mothers voice carried into the office where he and his father had been sitting. Both glanced at one another with similar looks of curiosity before standing and making their way to the foyer where the front door was now wide open and Narcissa was no where to be seen. Draco reacted to this first as he ran to the door, his eyes widened and he dropped the book he'd been reading on the floor as he ran outside and into the storm where both his mother and Kagome were. His mother was kneeling before his girlfriend who was unconscious on their lawn, her nimbus lay across the way from where she'd hit the ground. He wasn't certain if they should try lifting her or not, but when his father stepped up beside them and waved his wand at her battered body, a soft glow told them that she was at least in one piece and they could move her without causing additional harm.
"Shall I floo the Doctor?" Narcissa asked her husband.
"No, have Severus come take a look at her. Until we know what's happened, I'd rather not let anyone else near her."
She nodded and ran inside. Draco lifted Kagome and her head lulled against his shoulder gently as he carried her inside. Nodding his head towards the only house elf they had left. The elf offered him a towel before popping away to get another towel and a change of clothes for the girl in her young masters arms.
'I guess there was a slight change in plans...but, this way, at least we were all surprised...right?' He stared in worry at Kagome as he laid her down on the couch in his fathers office, directly in front of the warm fireplace. Using the towel, he laid it beneath her head and tightened it around her hair. His mother came in and ushered both him and his father out as Ceely appeared with clothes and another towel.
"You can come in once I've dressed her warmly, out!" Narcissa snapped.
Both Draco and Lucius sighed as the door slammed shut with a wave of Narcissa's wand. Draco was silent, running through every scenario he could, trying to figure out what must have happened to send Kagome crashing into his yard at six am. Glancing outside from one of the windows, he squinted before making out the lines of Kagome's broom. It was still dark outside from the heavy rainstorm and thunderous clouds, not looking like morning at all. "Ceely," he called, and of course, the little house elf responded with a poof. "Can you get Kagome's broom and place it in my room."
"Ceely will, yes." She smiled and popped out of sight.
The broom vanished from the yard and Draco nodded his head in contentment. A moment later, Draco heard the door open, his mother walked out with a soft sigh before stepping out of the way so that Draco could walk in. He did so without question, still not knowing why she was so early, he was happy she was at least okay.
"I dare say, something must have happened. She'd have flooed here were there no impending trouble." Lucius commented offhandedly as he entered his office and returned to the prophet he had early been reading. "Let us see what Severus has to say when he arrives." He eyed his son who was running his hand carefully along the sleeping girls arm. "Boy, don't coddle the girl."
Draco turned a glare to his father before returning his eyes to the flushed cheeks of his girlfriend. He knew she was chilled, he could feel her slight quivering beneath his fingertips. Running his hand along her arms, he hoped to provide her with even a little of his own warmth. 'What...what happened?'
