p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;"Draco stepped off the train carefully and headed toward the front gate of Hogwarts. The warm air hit his face and Draco straightened his jacket as he made his way as quietly as possible through the Great Hall and to his seat saved by Blaise. The first years' names were called in a blur, as did the first course of the feast./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;" /p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""Where were you?" Theo asked Draco./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;" /p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""Late." Draco answered simply, helping himself to another bread roll./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;"In the commotion and noise of the feast, Draco noticed a messy black-haired boy making his way to a seat at the Gryffindor table across the Great Hall. Harry's face, from his nose down to his collar, were soaked in blood. Hermione was the first to notice Harry, and rushed to him with a pile of napkins and shoving them at him. Hermione ushered Harry to a seat next to Ron Weasley and sat on the other side of him. From what Draco knew of her, Hermione Granger was probably already questioning Harry non-stop for details of his tardiness, whether he wanted to be questioned or not. Draco also couldn't help noticed the most concerned looking Gryffindor was Jenny Weasley. At least that's what Draco thought her name was./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;" /p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""Draco!" Snapping out of his daze, Draco turned to see Pansy rushing toward him and throwing herself on him her cloak knocking over a glass of pumpkin juice./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;" /p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""God, Pansy, get off!" Draco grabbed her by under her arms and sat her beside him, only to have her lean her head on Draco's shoulder. Giving up, Draco rested his head on his hands and tried to block out the noise./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;" /p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""You alright mate?" Blaise asked later that night./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;" /p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""Yes, Blaise, fine. Just turning in early." Without waiting for a response Draco turned away from a pouted-faced Pansy and unconcerned Blaise and headed down the right hallway in the Slytherin's dungeons to the boys dormitories. Draco expected to get to sleep easily with everyone celebrating a new year in the common room, but it was quite the opposite. Now that Draco was here, his orders seemed real. At the Manor, he could plan without much concern with follow through; but actually at Hogwarts; Draco felt guiltier than ever with what he was planning to do. He couldn't look Dumbledore in the eye, and never would again. Why him? Why not Theo, or Blaise, or Pansy? Their parents were Death Eaters, so why Draco? He had asked himself these questions many times and the answer was simple: revenge for Lucius failing to retrieve the prophecy. Voldemort was truly evil, and Draco was not. He was going to fail. em style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"Shut up/em! He screamed at himself, but he couldn't deny the style="mso-spacerun: yes;" /spanAnd Draco had accepted it. Now he had a new plan. Though he hated to be so selfish, Dumbledore's blood would not be on Draco's hands. Snape would be the one to follow through. Lying in bed that night, Draco swore on his life (and that might be what it took), that Snape would kill Dumbledore. Not Draco./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;" /p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""Draco, come on! Get up!" Pansy was leaning over Draco, her blond hair itching his style="mso-spacerun: yes;" /spanPansy shook Draco roughly until finally Draco jolted awake./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;" /p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""Th'hell Pansy! How did you get in here?" Pansy smirked as Draco rose from his bed./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;" /p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""Theo let me in." She said. As Pansy's eyes and smirk widened, Draco suddenly realized he was in just his boxers. Then Pansy was on top of Draco again, falling over him on the bed./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;" /p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""Pansy! GET OFF!" Draco pushed Pansy off of him, gathered his clothes, and left the dormitories to go to the showers./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;" /p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;"On the way, he wasn't really paying attention to where he was going and bumped right into a mop of brown hair. Draco looked up at Granger, who was shooting daggers at him. I guess Potter told her about the train./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;" /p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""Thanks, Granger, I'll have to go and shower now." He sneered and dramatically brushed his robes with his hands as to get her filth off him. She pushed passed him hard./p

p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;"Draco missed breakfast since he took too long washing up, but he needed to think. He rushed to his first class, potions, and was luckily on time. Professor Slughorn greeted him politely, and Draco took his normal seat between Blaise and, to his disappointment, Pansy. Obviously annoyed from that morning's encounter, she didn't speak to Draco, which he didn't mind whatsoever. After the last students took their seats, including Harry and Ron, Slughorn rose from his desk to introduce the four potions on the main table; one murky and silver yet transparent, one muddy and bubbling green air pockets, one emitting a light pink smoke, and the last; yellowish-gold in a tiny vile./p

p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""Who can tell me the names of these potions?" Slughorn asked the class of Gryffindors and Slytherins. To no one's surprise, Granger's hand shot in the air and waved wildly./p

p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""Yes, Miss Granger?" Granger cleared her throat and began reciting some textbook./p

p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""The first, sir, is Veritaserum. A colorless, odorless potion that forces the drinker to tell the truth." Slughorn nodded happily./p

p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""Its Polyjuice Potion, sir." Her smile widened at the delighted look she received from Slughorn/p

p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""Amortentia! The most powerful love potion in the world." Said Granger./p

p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""Yes! You can recognize it by its pink steam rising and the smell. The aroma emitted from this potion smells different to every person, based on what attracts them most. What do you smell, Miss Granger?" Granger hesitated for a second./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;" /p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""Um, like freshly mown grass and new parchment and-" Granger blushed a bright red and did not complete her sentence./p

p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""Indeed, someone tell me what they smell…" Slughorn droned on about specifics of each potion and Draco concentrated on what he smelt. Five smells were emitted: a carved pumpkin, the mixed and confusing smell of the Quidditch field as he flew, newly baked chocolate chip banana bread his mother made every Christmas, the burning smell after fireworks go off, and one particular smell he couldn't identify, though he wasn't concerned over it. Theo whispered something suddenly to Draco but not listening, or really caring, Draco just cracked a smile as Theo laughed. It must have been an insult, because Potter was now glaring at him./p

p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph; line-height: 200%; tab-stops: 48.9pt;""Yes Miss Granger, 30 point to Gryffindor!" Slughorn announced. Granger shyly lowered her head, but she still smiled brightly./p

Any one who brews a perfect Draught of Living Death will posses this vile of a perfect twelve hours! Your time starts now." That got Draco's attention. Liquid Luck was just what he needed. It would be impossible to fail with it. Draco rushed around the classroom, breaking a sweat from the heat emitting from the dozen cauldrons, and followed his Potion Book's instructions perfectly. He couldn't mess this up./p

Draco looked up from his nearly finished potion to see the teacher handing over the vile to Potter as Granger stared at him, dumfounded. Draco slammed the knife down furiously and gathered his things just as class ended./p
