Disclaimer: I Do Not Own Harry Potter Or Any Of It's Characters


Duel in the Dungeon

"Expelliarmus!"

"Stupefy!"

"Protego!"

"Confundus!"

The dark dungeon lit up as spell shot through the air. Harry and Draco hid around the corner of the hallway firing spells one after the other while Ron and Hermione did the same on the opposite end. Harry quickly turned the corner and rushed at them. Ron did the same, just as he expected.

"Ron, no!" Hermione yelled, her hand reaching out to stop him.

"Stupefy!" bright red light shot out from Ron's wand and past Harry's head as he ran past him toward Hermione. Her eyes widen as see saw him approaching.

Harry lifted his wand and shouted "Serpensortia!" A cobra flew out of the tip of his wand at Hermione, barely missing her throat. She ran to the opposite wall and pointed her wand at the snake as it slithered closer to her. While she was distracted he looked back toward Draco and saw the he and Ron were throwing spells back and forth at each other. Harry felt a pang of fear as he saw dodging and block incoming spells. He knew he had to distract Ron and Harry had the perfect idea. A smirk on his face, Harry pointed his wand at the cobra and said "Engorgio!"

The cobra began to grow until it was almost twice the size of Nagini. "Wrap around her" Harry commanded in Parseltongue. The cobra obeyed and began to circle Hermione's feet. "Expelliarmus!" Hermione's wand flew out of her hand and fell to the floor. She screamed and pushed at the snake as it wrapped around her waist working its way up. Ron turned his head to look just as Draco stupefied him. Ron hit the wall behind him, and fell to the floor. Just as Draco turn to smile at Harry a spell hit him in the back. Draco yelled in pain and tumbled to the floor next to Ron.

"No!" Harry ran toward Draco, skidding to a halt when he saw Neville pointing his wand at Draco. "Neville get away from him or I'll-"

"You'll what?" Neville looked him straight in the eyes showing no fear. "Destroy the snake." Neville lift his hand and pointed to Hermione, who was still trying to push the snake off her.

Harry did as he said, not wanting Draco to get hurt. Point his wand in Hermione's direction he said "Vipera Evanesca." The snake burned away, turning into ash. Hermione sighed in relief and picked up of wand. She walked over to Neville and hugged him. Harry had the urge to jinx her but knew Neville would harm Draco if he tried.

"You alright?" Neville asked her.

"Yes I'm fine, but what about Ron?" Hermione knelt down by Ron, who lay on the floor unconscious.

"He banged his head but he should be fi-"

"You have what you want! Now if you don't put down damn wand down I will kill you!" Harry threatened. There was a soft moan. Harry looked down to see Draco slowly waking up. Neville and Hermione turned their heads to look. Harry seized the moment. He pointed his wand in both their faces and shouted "Lumos Maxima!" They threw their hands up trying to shield themselves from the light. Harry grabbed the half conscious Draco and ran. Harry could hear spells hitting the walls behind them, but he didn't look back. When they made it to hallway near the Great Hall they stopped running, hunched and breathing heavily. A group of first year Ravenclaws stared at them as they passed by, whispering just loud enough for him to hear.

"Look it's Harry Potter!"

"Isn't he the one You-Know-Who tried to kill?"

"Yeah, but my dad says he's working for him now."

"I heard that-"There voices grew distant as they disappeared down the next corridor.

After a moments rest Harry look at Draco and said "Come on, we have to tell Voldemort that Dumbledore knows what we are planning." Harry was sure that if Hermione and Ron knew they were going to kill Dumbledore that meant Neville knew. That also meant that Dumbledore most definitely knew.

"How are we going to tell him?" Draco asked, walking swiftly down the corridor with Harry.

"We'll use the fireplace in the Chamber." Harry replied. Draco stopped suddenly and looked at Harry with fear in his eyes. Harry turned to look at him. "What?"

"I'm not going down there with that damn thing." Draco had always hated going into the chamber were Harry's basilisk slept. Harry had perfected his Parseltongue and was in complete control of the basilisk, but Draco still didn't trust him.

"Draco. It's the only safe place we can talk to him." Harry reached out and grabbed Draco's hand and pulled him close. He looked Draco in the eyes before he leaned down and kissed him. He could feel Draco trembling as they embraced each other. He pulled away and whispered "I love you. I won't let anything harm you. Ever."

Draco looked into Harry's vibrant green eyes and whispered back "I love you to."

They kissed one last time before making their to the deserted girl's bathroom were the Chamber of Secrets lay hidden.
