*I can't claim to own the source material for this story, but I can keep writing about it as much as want.
Potter had been spotted in Hogsmeade Village and Voldemort's army was on the move, Kagome and Draco included. They waited on the hill over Hogwarts, just outside of the barrier that surrounded the area as the army attempted to break through. Although they could see cracks and fractures in the barrier, nothing seemed to be getting through.
In the distance, Draco could see the quidditch field burning and that hurt him. Despite what people thought, he'd earned his spot as seeker on the Slytherin team and had a lot of fun doing it. He had only stopped because his father had commanded it, so he could dedicate himself to Voldemort. He hated what he was forced to do to protect his family, but that would soon be over. This war would end, one way or another, within the next few days. What mattered most to him was protecting the people he loved, and Kagome had moved to the top of that list.
His thoughts were interrupted when Voldemort screamed in a fit of anguish that made Draco glad that he had held her back. He attacked the barrier with the elder wand, tearing it down. The order to continue the attack travelled through the ranks before he turned directly towards Draco and Kagome. "My little Dark Priestess, I have a special mission for you and your future husband."
Kagome's enthusiasm was evident as she rushed forward to her father, taking one of his hands between hers. "Whatever you wish, Father, I'll see it done."
"I know you shall. I want you to go to the Room of Requirement. Inside, is one of my horcruxes. I fear that is no longer safe. Retrieve the Diadem of Ravenclaw and return it to me. Do this and I swear that you and Draco shalt be married after the war is over."
Giddy with his promise, Kagome quickly returned to Draco's side and the two of them apparated into Hogwarts and landed among the throng of panicking students. They quickly found Goyle and Blaise, grabbing the two of them for backup before making their way to the Room of Requirement.
AN: On a roll and coming towards the end. Sorry for the long pause, but... my husband and I just got a house! Hooray! Warm-Fuzzies and please review!
