A/N: Thank you all for taking the time to review my last chapter. I apologize for the delay in getting this chapter up. I had to get it just right if it were to set up the next part of the story. Also, I must warn you, there is strong language in this chapter and what could be construed as violence.
It was early in the evening and Draco was pacing in his room at Hogwarts. He had just told the other man; who was sitting on his couch about what the ministry was planning on doing later that night. The man had told him what they could and would do to stop the situation from happening, and that was what made him upset. He did not like the idea one bit. After all, he had done enough already and was still going to have to do more. But this…this was just going way too far he thought.
Stopping in mid pace and whirling around to face the other. "Look, I do not like doing this. I have already told you that. How can you even sit there and suggest that I; alone get Potter out of the castle? Don't you know what will happen if anyone finds out that I was the one who kidnapped the boy-who-lived?" Draco sneered.
"I understand perfectly what could happen, Draco. Just take a look at my position in this fiasco. What do you think they would do to me if they caught on that I was even behind any of this?"
"Yea right," Draco scoffed. "A perfect little Gryffindor doing something like kidnapping; you know they'd never believe it."
"We are not kidnapping Harry, and you bloody well know it." The other man yelled. "We're the only ones who are even willing to help him. So, you tell me how that is kidnapping?"
"It may not be kidnapping in the truest sense of the word, but those idiots would never believe that. Especially of a Slytherin and a Malfoy like I am," Draco replied sarcastically.
"Look, I told you once we get him out of here; you can step back once again into the shadows."
"And how am I supposed to do that with you staying here for school?" Draco sneered.
"Who is better at hiding their true self," came the question from the other man.
Draco's brows raised in surprise at the come back. He had found out that this man was in no way the perfect Gryffindor everyone thought he was. And he had also found that the man was down right scary at times with his ideas. Still, he didn't like what the man was suggesting he do.
"Look, just take the portkey and get him out of the castle to the safe house as soon as everyone has gone to bed. Once there I will meet you and we can explain everything together."
"And why can't you do the dirty work? Don't want your hands dirtied?" Draco sneered.
"My hands are in no way clean, and you know that. They haven't been clean in a couple of years now." The other man drawled.
"Fine, fine I'll do it." Draco said in a huff as he threw his hands up in the air. "But if I get caught…"
"Don't worry about getting caught?" Then a sky but evil looking smile came over the other man. "I will make sure that you are well covered in your escape. Now I better get going if I am to get everything ready for the big surprise." And with that the man stood up and headed for the fireplace.
Draco just stood there watching the other man leave. After a few minutes he shook his head and telling himself that the other man should have been in Slytherin like he was. Strolling over to the small kitchenette that he had, he began to make himself a cup of tea.
Unknown to Draco and the other man, they had been eavesdropped on. This person had listened intently to everything that was going to happen later that night. And by the end of their conversation, it had made up a plan of its own to help Harry and his true friends escape. There was no way that it would allow anything to happen to any of them. And if that meant showing all of the others, especially the ministry just what it could do; then it would do just that with all of its capabilities.
HPHPHPHPHPHPHPHPHPHPH
Harry wasn't sure exactly how late it was when he laid down and closed his eyes. He knew that tonight was the full moon and he wondered just what was going to happen with Moony. A smile crept up on his lips at the memory of getting the better of Remus. It was probably one of the better confrontations that he'd had so far since he'd been out of Azkaban.
He slowly drifted off to sleep with thoughts of trying to get out of this horrid place that once considered too be his true home. To disappear to somewhere he could finally start the life that he had always dreamed of and desperately wanted since he was a child.
Meanwhile, outside the gates of Hogwarts a group of ten aurors waited for their leader to arrive. The men were all nervous about what they were about to do, knowing that if they were to be caught, their lives would be forfeit. However no matter how they felt about their mission that night, they all knew that they would have to carry it out as they were loyal to Fudge. That is all of them except for one; the one who had gone to Draco and warned him of the plot.
That man was currently standing a few feet away from the others with his wand grasped tightly in his hand. His mind filled with thoughts of hope that Draco had gotten Harry out of there before they entered. He really didn't relish the idea of having to battle Dumbledore or for that matter any of the professors in an attempt to his escape.
A few minutes passed before they all heard the telltale crack of someone apparating in behind them. As a collective group they whirled around with their wands at the ready. To their relief the person they saw striding over to them was their leader of the mission, Dolores Umbridge. Seeing her, they all lowered their wands and waited for her to reach them and give the order.
"I am pleased that you have all agreed to this little mission. It is for the best that Mr. Potter is taken into hiding where we can train him. Now, I want you all too quietly enter Hogwarts. Two of you are to stand guard at the main doors, two outside the hall leading down to the dungeons, and the others to follow me to the infirmary. When we get there, I will stun Potter and then cast an invisibility charm on him. Once that is done, we will move out to here, where we will apparate to our destination. Now, I must warn you that it is quite possible we may have to fight our way out. If that scenario does occur, then you are all hereby granted full immunity in how you fight the enemy. Yes that is what I said…the enemy, as everyone within the walls are considered that by the ministry. Now, move out and be quiet." With that said she started through the gates with the men following her.
In the meantime, Draco was carefully making his way up from his room. His eyes darting every which way, making sure that he spotted anyone coming towards him. It would do no good if he were to be caught, especially by the idiots that were coming to take Potter away. He had just made it to the main entrance when he heard the doors start to creak open. Muttering a profanity, he jumped behind a suit of armor, wand ready and a spell on his lips. In his mind he kept telling himself how he was in deep shit.
Draco watched as the group of aurors and of course Umbridge walk into the castle entryway in silence. He was certain that they were all using a silencing spells on their shoes as to not make any noise. He had to get down to the infirmary before they could, but how was the problem he was currently having. Especially as he watched the group of would-be kidnappers separate. With one group led by Umbridge starting down the hallway that would take them to where Harry was and two left behind to guard the door.
Draco thought about stupefying the two remaining aurors but quickly through that thought out the proverbially window. After all, it would only cause the others to hear the noise and come back to investigate. And even if they didn't return, he would still not be able to get there before them. It was then that he began to feel a strange vibration coming from the suit of armor that he was hiding behind.
Upon feeling this strange vibration, his eyes turned from the aurors to the armor and his eyes grew wide in astonishment. Backing up as far as he could he watched as the suit of armor began to move and step down from its pedestal. 'What in Merlin's name is happening?' He thought. It was then that he heard the noise coming from his right, causing him to jerk his head to the right. And what he saw made him only try to melt into the wall. There a few feet away was another suit of armor stepping down.
There was nothing Draco could do at this point but to watch the suits move towards where the aurors were. Seeing this he began to wonder just what in the seven levels of hell had he gotten himself into?
Meanwhile the two Aurors; Sylvan and Watts were talking quietly in the moonlight about their current mission. They were both voicing their opinions on how they weren't too sure that this was such a good idea. Sylvan had just voiced his fear of them possibly losing their jobs over this when a sound caught his ear. He noted that Watts had also heard it.
They swiveled their bodies around, wands at he ready only to see darkness in front of them. Sylvan immediately cast the light spell only to drop his wand in shock. There standing only two feet away was a suit of armor, and it was slowly advancing on them. It was then that he also noticed another suit standing directly behind the other one. And there were at least three more suits that were moving up from further down the corridor.
Sylvan, even though was a top Auror immediately forgot his training and his partner. Spinning on his heel he tried to make a dash for the doors, however, that didn't happen. Instead of making out of the large doors, he slammed directly into one of them, effectively knocking himself out in the process.
Watts was just standing there the entire time, jaw open like a large gaping hole and eye wider then the largest plate in existence. He was literally frozen in place at the sight of the suits of empty armor. By the time he regained any sense of a brain, it was too late for the man. He soon found himself sinking into the concrete floor. He began screaming at the top of his lungs as he sunk further into the floor; like he was in quicksand. However, instead of sinking completely under the floor, he stopped when the floor reached his chest. Leaving only his head, shoulders, and arms; which by the way were flailing around visible for anyone to see.
Meanwhile, Draco tried to keep from laughing or snickering at what was happening to the aurors. Instead all he could do was try too hold it in and shake his head at the stupidity of the aurors. But all too soon he realized that he had the perfect opportunity to start working his way down the hallway towards the hospital wing. So with that, he took a deep breath before darting out from his hiding spot and making his way down the corridor.
Umbridge who was in the lead had no idea that by the time she reached the doors to where Harry was that she wouldn't have any help from her aurors. Or for that matter that she would find herself facing a very pissed off castle, that would make her worse nightmares come true.
As they were making their way down the darkened corridor one of the aurors that was bringing up the rear began to fee the hairs on the back of his neck rise and tingle. At first he shook it off as nothing more then nerves, but that changed as they continued to make their way.
They'd only gone maybe ten more feet when he suddenly felt a strange presence directly behind him. Forgetting to warn the others of a possible attack, the man whipped around, a curse ready on his lips only to find that there was nothing behind him. Furrowing his brow at this strange turn of events, he lowered his wand. However he was still feeling the tingling sensation on the back of his neck. That didn't make any sense to the man as he was certain there was no way anyone could have gotten in between him and his group.
At that point he felt himself rise up off the ground by an unseen force. He tried to shout for help, at the same time to cast a spell, but nothing happened. Now, he began panicking as his wand clattered to the ground and he was still rising in the air. The next thing the man knew; his entire upper half of his body was stuck in the ceiling of the corridor while his legs were thrashing about wildly.
Now there were two that had gone down to stand guard at the stairs leading to the dungeons. These two men were the most nervous of the bunch about the whole mission. Neither one relished the idea of being on the opposite side of Dumbledore's wand if it came to that.
They hadn't been standing there even five minutes when they both let out startled screams, wands falling to the ground. They felt themselves grabbed by thick concrete hands and pulled towards opposite walls. In their hysterical screaming they soon found themselves stuck into the walls, as if someone had purposefully tried to cement them. However, their screams didn't last long as the two were put to sleep to wait for the coming sunrise.
There were now only five aurors and Umbridge left to deal with, and to their attacker it was perfect. Especially, since she had some exciting plans for them in the next several minutes. Meanwhile, Draco was slowly creeping down the corridor toward the group after having successfully made it up the stairs to the second floor. That is until he stopped dead in his tracks when he saw the aurors legs frantically waving above him thanks to the lumos that he had cast. Seeing this, he couldn't help but snicker out loud at the sight he was seeing. After a minute or two, Draco began to move once again down the corridor, silently snickering and wondering what was going on to do this too the men. But that didn't stop him from thanking whoever his invisible ally was for the help that he was being given.
The next auror to fall was the one that had fallen behind from his group. He had heard a strange muffling sound coming from behind him. He listened intently for the sound to be repeated, except that he now only heard silence. This only made him more apprehensive as he had already felt apprehensive about sneaking around the castle. Shaking his head and silently telling himself to get a grip he began to move again. However, the poor man only made two steps before finding himself sailing through the air towards a solid wall. Only it wasn't a solid wall any longer as it opened up to allow the now screaming man to go directly through it and to a twenty foot drop down to the grounds if Hogwarts.
Umbridge and the final three reached the steps that led up to the third floor completely unaware that they had lost the rest of their little band of would-be kidnappers. It was also at this point that they lost the next member of their group.
Auror Barkley stopped and looked up the stairs to where he thought he heard what sounded like a clanging sound. Narrowing his eyes and pointing his lumos lit wand, he tried to see what or who was up there without actually going to investigate. Nevertheless, the sound was repeated again forcing the man to go investigate. He knew that he wasn't supposed to leave the group, but he also knew that they had been ordered to stop anyone from impeding their mission. And with that he started to climb the stairs.
Barkley only made it about halfway up the staircase when it began to shudder and shake
As if it were about to move like all the others did. Forgetting all about his training; Barkley dropped his wand and grabbed a hold of the railing to keep from falling down. And that would turn out to be his downfall as the stairs opened up and he found himself falling downward.
He landed painfully on his back and slowly sat up moaning from the fall when his eyes fell upon a feral looking house-elf with large blazing green tennis ball sized eyes looking at him as if he were some piece of meat that needed to be cooked.
"You here to take friend. I no allow you. We house-elves protect friend," Dobby said just as a rolling pin appeared in his hands.
Barkley seeing and hearing what the crazed house-elf said began to slide across the floor as he watched at least twenty more house-elves with the same look on their faces appear. As he slid across the floor, he watched the house-elves stalk him like a hunter would a deer in hunting season with is heart pounding harder then he ever believed it could. He knew he had to get out of the kitchens somehow, but all too soon he found himself being stopped by the wall of the kitchen. His eyes looked fearfully between the now stalking house-elves and the door leading out as he tried to come up with an escape plan. However, that wasn't to be as the house-elves all stopped briefly before pouncing on him.
The house-elves soon started beating him everywhere with anything and everything in the kitchen that was available. He tried to shield his face and head from the blows that he was receiving, but that was to no avail as he soon found his arms and hands being pried from his face.
Poor Mr. Barkley was being hit with everything from a rolling pin to a pan for a cake. Winky had even jumped up on the table next to the man and proceeded to beat him over the head with one of the chickens that was supposed to be served for dinner the following night. He was even hit in the legs with the kitchen sink giving new meaning to the saying everything but the kitchen sink.
The entire time Dobby was telling him that they were going to teach not to play with house-elves. That is unless he wanted to play their games.
While this was all going on with Barkley, Doran, another one of the final aurors soon found himself in a very strange predicament. Peeves, having been given his orders swooped down and grabbed a hold of the man's shoulders before disappearing completely. This was only done thanks to Lady Hogwarts giving him the ability to do more then he ever could before.
Soon Doran and Peeves were now on top of the Astronomy tower where he was being dangled over the side of the castle. The entire time he was screaming like a banshee and Peeves was cackling and talking to him.
"Peeves been told to have fun and fun I shall have." The poltergeist told the man through his cackles. And with that Peeved let go of the man as he screamed his way down the side of the tower.
However he didn't fall to his death, for Peeves appeared once again and took hold of the man and disappeared once again; only to reappear at the top once again.
"Peeves want more fun with you." And with that Peeves once again dropped him.
Doran didn't know how many times he was picked up and dropped off the side of the tower by the crazy poltergeist before he found himself in another part of the castle. This time, however, was even worse as he soon realized that he was known in Filch's office. His eyes went wide at the sight of the chains that were hanging on the one wall. Taking a quick look around and not seeing Peeves, he made a quick dash for the door, but he was stopped by an invisible force. And soon he found himself being chained to the wall by what he could only guess was the mad poltergeist.
The last two aurors didn't know what hit them as they found themselves grabbed by a strong powerful magic force and sent sailing through the nearest wall. Screaming their heads off as they drew closer to the wall they soon saw a hole open in the center before they went through it. However, when they felt their bodies begin to fall back to earth they looked down in fright as neither one had their wand to slow their descent. And then there were the three dark heads growling at them from below. All they could do now was scream their lungs out and pray that Merlin would save them from a horrible death.
By the time Umbridge made it to the doors of the hospital she realized that not one of the aurors that had come with her, were now standing behind her. Her round ugly toad like face began to redden in anger as she assumed that the men decided not to help in this mission and abandon their posts. Huffing and deciding that she would punish them later she turned back to the doors and tried to push them open. But to her dismay they would not budge, which caused her to whip out her wand and cast the unlocking spell. However, even that wouldn't allow the doors to open. By now her face was redder then a tomato in heat as she kept trying to get the blasted doors to open. Still, each and every attempt she made was a failure, causing her to come up with another way into the wing. It was at this point that she heard a low and very deep growl coming from the shadows to her left. Perplexed at this, she turned and trained her wand on the spot where she had heard the growl coming from. And in doing so made her eyes nearly pop out of her eyes and back into their sockets like a jack-in-the-box does when it is opened causing her to slowly step back.
HPHPHPHPHPHPHPHHPH
During all of this Remus and Sirius had been in the shrieking shack for the full moon. Remus had taken his monthly potion even though he hadn't really felt like he should. He was still very depressed about what had happened the other day in the infirmary. And no matter what Sirius or anyone tried, he just wouldn't allow himself to understand that he had no part in the actions of the wolf.
Now as he screamed and howled from the pain of his transformation he was unaware that the wolf inside of him was about to have the most fun it had ever had. It would also be the night that would change his view towards the actions that he had taken over a year ago.
Just as soon as Moony had taken Remus' place, Sirius and him bounded out into the dark forest for their monthly romp. What neither knew as they ran deeper into the forest was that they were being followed by unseen observer. An observer who was just biding their time until it came too when they would contact the wolf for the last part of their plan.
Padfoot and Moony had gone to a small watering hole deep within the forest when they both sensed the strange being. The two canines began to growl low in their throats, trying to warn whoever it was to stay away. However, their mild attempts to dissuade the stranger to leave only seemed to make it move closer. Which caused Moony to growl louder and his amber eyes to glow briefly, giving the intruder a stronger warning then before. Padfoot also growled louder before he began to slowly stalk towards a bush where he sensed the being was.
"I am in need of your assistance Moony." The intruder spoke in the mind of Moony. Of course this made Remus who was in control of his mind to jump. However, it had a very different effect on Moony. Moony began to push with all its might at Remus' mind in an attempt to override the potion and take control, which in turn caused Remus to try and push back at the wolf. All the while Remus was beginning to panic and become terrified at the thought that the wolf would somehow take over once again.
"That is good my wolf. I shall help you. But I must want you, you will obey me."
This strange voice only made Remus panic even more as it was willing to help the wolf take over.
Padfoot sensing something was wrong with his friend, turned away from the bush and ran over to him. He soon saw what he could only guess was the wolf and Remus fighting for dominance. How this was or could happen he had no idea, but he was going to give his friend some help. And with this decided, he began to bark loudly and jump in front of the thrashing wolf in an attempt to gain Remus' attention.
Nevertheless, his attempts were futile, for soon the wolf stopped thrashing abut and stood on its hind legs before giving out a loud howl at the moon. And with this done, he and Moony disappeared from their spot; only to reappear in a dark corridor in Hogwarts.
Immediately Padfoot hopped in front of Moony, who was now growling in an attempt to keep him from moving. But that didn't work as he too heard the strange voice. This time the voice told him to turn around and help instead of being a hindrance. Of course Padfoot being Padfoot refused to listen to the voice and kept on trying to hold the wolf at bay.
Suddenly every torch along the walls lit up causing Padfoot to stop and turn around warily. It was then that he saw Umbridge standing a little ways away from them with her eyes wide and a look of fear on her toad like face. It was then that it hit him like a ton of bricks, Umbridge was after his pup. He began to growl and move towards the witch, intent on showing just what he would do to her. But he was stopped by Moony, who had lunged over him and started barreling towards Umbridge.
Umbridge saw the grim and the wolf coming at her. Her heart leapt into her throat and she let out an ear splitting scream, which of course Hogwarts allowed to reverberate through her and wake the rest of the castle up.
Before she knew it, she was racing as fast as she could down the corridor that she had just come from; her eyes wide with fear and her legs pumping, like to stumps being chopped by a woodcutter. The entire way back down the corridor she was screaming at the top of her lungs; that is, until she reached where she saw the legs sticking out from the ceiling above her. Letting out another ear piercing scream and shouting, "The grim and the wolf are here to kill me." She began to run faster as the barks and growls drew closer.
Reaching the staircase, she didn't even stop for a second as she raced down them and towards the main doors. She had only gone three steps before she tripped and feel which of course caused her to roll down the rest of the steps heard over heels. At the bottom of the stairs she hopped back to her feet and took off running again, only to stop and scream again. She had just come across the upped body of another auror. This one had his arms flailing about and he was screaming to get him out. But instead of helping the man, she only screamed and took off running. In her haste to get away from the canines and the trapped men, she ended up kicking the auror directly in the head. Of course his head snapped backwards from the impact before snapping back into place. And as soon as it did, he began to scream at the top of his lungs at what he saw coming towards him. There bounding down the corridor was Padfoot and Moony.
Umbridge finally reached the main doors, still screaming her head off, where she saw the two unconscious aurors and three suits of armor with their weapons held high above them. Giving one last terrifying shriek, she slammed into the doors, which due to her girth flew open to allow her out. But that wasn't the final thing that happened to Umbridge.
She was just about to step foot onto the ground when she felt two invisible hands pick her up, lifting her into the air. Then a voice began to ring out, echoing through the forbidden forest. "You are not wanted here and now I am taking out the trash." And with that having been said, Umbridge found herself sailing through the darkened night, directly towards the forbidden forest.
She landed painfully on her front, but before she could even get up, she found several sharp objects being jabbed into her. Daring not to open her eyes as she could only guess what was around her, she gave a silent prayer that she would survive another encounter.
"Human, we told you before that you were not welcomed in our forest. Now, we shall show you exactly what we do to those who refuse to listen to us." Bane said before reaching down and yanking the terrified woman up and heading back into the deeper part of the forest.
"Good riddance to bad rubbish." Lady Hogwarts said, which echoed through the walls and the grounds causing all those who heard to shiver in fright.
Meanwhile, Draco had made it the doors of the infirmary, but not before having to dive for cover when Umbridge ran passed him being chased by Remus and Sirius. As soon as they had all passed, he began to laugh at the scene. So far everything was working out for him and the plan, and he couldn't be happier. Even though he had to help his enemy, which was something he hated to do.
Taking a deep breath he pushed on the doors and stepped in quickly as they started to part. It would do him no good if Potter or Pomfrey heard him coming in. However, that didn't happen because there standing a few feet away from the doors was a bewildered and frightened looking Madam Pomfrey. Rolling his eyes at his misfortune, he muttered under his breath, just absolutely fucking great."
"Mr. Malfoy what are you doing here?" Pomfrey asked with a shaky voice and a trembling wand hand.
"Yea, what do you want Malfoy?" Harry asked from his bed.
Draco debated with himself about whether to tell them the truth or lie. Finally he decided that for once in his life he would actually tell the truth and hope for the best. Even though he was certain that Harry wouldn't believe him one bit, still he had to try.
"Potter, I am here to take you out of here." He said as he started strutting towards his enemy and the medi-witch.
"Like hell am I going anywhere with you." Harry said angrily.
"Mr. Malfoy, why are you doing this?" Pomfrey asked him.
"Madam, you are aware that it is dangerous for Potter…I mean Harry to stay here." Seeing the tentative nod from the woman, he continued. "I have been working with a few others to get him to safe place…a safe place where he can recuperate and hide." He said the last with a sneer.
"Good. It is not safe for him to be here. I am pleased that you have finally put your differences to the side to help him." She said with a smile now appearing on her face.
Harry on the other and looked horrified as he turned to look at the woman. He couldn't believe what he was hearing, Madam Pomfrey willing to let him leave sooner then expected, and with his enemy of all people. "I…I'm not going anywhere with Malfoy." He said.
"Then would you rather stay here and be a target for the ministry or a pawn like Dumbledore wants." Draco sneered.
Hearing this, Harry's head snapped to glare at his enemy. "What do you mean a target for the ministry?"
"Umbridge and a few aurors came here tonight to take you away." Draco replied dryly.
"Malfoy, what do you mean take me away?" Harry asked with narrowed eyes.
"Just what I said, Potter. Now are you going to come voluntarily or am I going to make you by force?"
"Mr. Malfoy that will be enough of that type of talk around me," Poppy scolded the blond before turning to look at Harry. "He is perfectly right Harry. You are no longer safe here within the walls of Hogwarts. The Headmaster and your former friends will do everything they can to keep you here. Also, the ministry will try again to get a hold of you. What the reason they want you so bad, is a mystery to me at the moment. But please be rest assured that I will come and check up on you. After all, you are my favorite patient." She said with a smile.
"You…How do you knew where we are going?" Draco stuttered out.
"Mr. Malfoy, do you not think I would be involved in this plan? Were you not told earlier that there were others involved in this daring escape?" She asked him with a smirk.
Harry by now was reeling from the conversation that was going on. In his wildest imagination he never would have believed that the strict witch would ever be involved in something like getting him out Hogwarts. Nor would he have guessed that the woman would openly go against Dumbledore. Then there was the part about him leaving with Malfoy to some undisclosed place, which he assumed was where Voldemort was waiting.
"I am not going anywhere until someone explains to me what the hell is going on!" Harry shouted.
"Harry, there are a few people who as I do believe you know about who believed in your innocence. Well, I told you that I was one of them. Mr. Malfoy here is another one of those people. If it hadn't been for all the work he has done, you would still be in Azkaban. Now, all of the other questions that you have will have to wait until you get to the flat where you will be staying at. Rest assured that he is not taking you to the Dark Lord, but rather to a place where another friend is at. He is probably already there waiting, if I am not mistaken." She said before hurrying back to her office.
Harry could only sit there on his bed staring at Malfoy. This entire night was turning into one big headache and all he wanted to do was to go back to sleep. But that wasn't to happen as Poppy came bustling back into the room with a small bag of what Harry could only guess were his daily potions.
She handed the bag to Draco and began to tell him what he needed to do with them. Harry watched as Draco nodded and rolled his eyes at the stern woman. Once that had been completed, he watched Malfoy cockily walk over to him and grab his arm, which of course he immediately jerked away from and hissed at the blond.
"Look Potter, I mean Harry. We have to leave unless you want Dumbledore and the others to come in. I am certain with what has transpired they will be arriving soon." He drawled.
"He is right Harry. The two of you have to leave now."
Harry wasn't too sure about all of this, but he knew that he really had no choice. Not if he wanted to get away before Dumbledore could stop him. And so with that he acquiesced and allowed Draco to grab his arm before they port-keyed out of Hogwarts.
The two reappeared in what looked like a small cozy living room. Harry, who had fallen on his but, slowly picked himself up. He was mumbling about blood port-keys when he heard a chuckle from one of the seats. His head snapped up in the direction of the voice wishing that he had his wand only to see a familiar face. And it was a face that he had not expected to ever see again.
"Se...Seamus," Harry managed to stutter out.
HPHPHPHPHPHPHPHHPHPHPHPHPHHP
Well, there it is. I know that it ended as a cliff-hangar, but I had no other choice or it may have destroyed what I was going for.
I will try not to be as long as I was on this one for the next chapter. Please leave me a review and tell me what you think.
