Chapter 25
Kila led Draco into the dark forest, noises erupting all around them in the dark and cold. She shivered uncontrollably, Partly because of the cold night air and partly because she knew what was coming. After an hour of walking the forest they stopped and Kila pulled the hair away from her neck and let her neck shine in the moonlight with a healthy shine. Draco's grey eyes darted towards it.
"You want me to-"
"Yes I do," She said although her head was screaming no, her heart was screaming yes" Get it over and done with but don't take too much"
It seemed Draco didn't need telling twice he walked towards her and took hold of her gently. She could feel his hot breath on her neck and she heard a low snarling sound. She managed to look round and see Draco his eyes shinning like molten silver, his hair ungelled and his fangs bore. He looked almost like a wild animal to her, something uncontrollable. The fangs were getting closer and soon they would touch her throat pierce the skin..
She heard a pain filled snarl and she was thrown to the floor hard and landed on the mood. She looked up and saw Draco, or the thing inside of him, his eyes on her throat and his teeth sharp and dangerous.
"The cross" he snarled" take it off"
"Ok, calm down" She said. Se undid the cross and slipped in carefully into the pocket of her robes. Draco advanced on her again before she even had a chance to look up. She stood up slowly and he took her again.
"I don't know how to do this to a human" he said his voice distorted" You might have to be patient"
"I'm scared you will take to much" She whispered.
"Don't be, try and relax it will only hurt if you resist" Came the distorted voice again. Oh Ron what would you say, what would you think, if you saw me now, like this. He would hate me, she thought. She closed her eyes and felt a tear run down her cheek. She felt the sting of sharp teeth on her neck breaking the skin to get to the vein and to the blood and then she heard a soft sucking sound. She could actually feel the blood flowing from her to him and her mind had touched his.
Its ok.your going to be fine
The voice in her head made sense and she began to relax and enjoy the life giving feeling and Draco's mouth on her neck. Ron didn't have to know that she was helping Draco. She was only helping him. She didn't love him. Or did she?
Draco pulled away from her neck and she started to feel the cold rush in. She felt woozy and weak and her mind was spinning as she tried to take a step and almost fell. Draco caught her in time and helped her keep steady as they walked out of the forest. In the darkness she could see his skin was rosy like that of a humans and he looked stronger. The blood must have took effect straight away. He helped her up to the castle and they didn't meet a soul on the way, as they went straight up to Dumbledore's office. The old password didn't work so they tried other names of sweets and chocolates. The gargoyle moved aside when Draco said blood lollipop. Draco helped her onto the stairs and they began to move upwards until they stopped at the office door.
Draco knocked hard but there was no answer. He tried again but still no answer. He looked at Kila and she shrugged thinking that Dumbledore must still be away. Draco tried the door handle and the door opened slowly with a creak. Surely if Dumbledore was away the door would be locked? Draco pushed it open further and they could see inside. Kila gasped in horror.
The office was no that which it had been before. Before it had been a calm place with funny looking instruments making stop noises and spinning and headmasters and mistresses snoozing and snoring in their portraits on the wall. The place had been totally smashed to pieces and parchment was thrown all over the place. Kila looked at the parchment and saw a deep red stain that looked like blood. Kila dropped the parchment and walked backwards and walked into Draco. All of the little instruments lay broken and the portraits had been ripped and splattered with blood.
"It is blood," said Draco" I can smell it. Its human"
"Is someone there?" Came a soft voice.
Kila looked around wildly but she could see no one around to make the noise. It seemed that Dumbledore had been taken but he had put up a fight and come to harm.
"Up here miss" Came the small soft voice again. She looked up and saw the portrait of an old man sitting in a seat that hadn't been destroyed. There was blood on part of the picture though.
"What happened?" She asked the old man who was bound to be an old headmaster.
"Vampires, came and took Dumbledore, "he said" Put up a fight of course but they bit him and hut him. Luckily not all this blood is his, most of it is vampire for he managed to stake and kill a few. See the dust over there?"
The old man pointed and she followed his hand and saw a pile of dust and next to it what looked like a broken part of the desk.
"He couldn't take it anymore. He collapsed and they wrecked the office and took him"
"I thought Dumbledore had a phoenix. Wouldn't it have gone for help? How come no one has come?"Asked Draco.
"He had only just arrived back. This happened but an hour ago and they fed off the bird and took it to. The blood made them stronger and Dumbledore attacking them with his wand made them more angry"
"How did they get in?" Asked Kila.
"A boy let them in, called one of them dad. He must have been a vampire as well" Wheezed the old man.
"What in god's name has happened here?" Came McGonagall's voice behind them. They both turned to see her in her tartan dressing gown with her hair down.
"Dumbledore has been taken by vampires, professor" said Kila quickly." The Phoenix as well"
"I want to know what you were doing here in the first place" Said a voice coldly.
"We wanted to speak to the headmaster Sir" Said Draco" me and Kila had seen something on the grounds when we was out earlier today"
Ok he had just lied to the head of his house. She looked at Snape and those cold eyes hoping he would believe Draco and not mention to anyone they had been out together. Snape cast a cold look at both of them and then started to look around the room.
"I must send word to the ministry immediately" Said Professor McGonagall in a shaky voice. She swept off.
Kila looked at Draco who shrugged and they both turned to leave and Snape didn't call them back.
"Alexander you have to speak to him.we have to find Dumbledore" Said Kila when they were out of hearing.
"Don't worry" Said Draco darkly" Ill deal with him"
So Embo what do you think? Thanx loads for all your reviews they mean a lot to me..since no one else is reading this im writing it for you! Love Beth x
