The Lady of Durmstrang

by RavenNM

From the moment she stepped through the doors of the great hall, she was a mystery. The lone female student of Durmstrang Academy that had come for the Tri-Wizard Tournament. Who was this girl that Dumbledore seemed to know and have so much interest in? A crossover drabble series that begins during the four book.

50. Chapter 50

*Here's one of my favorite chapters to stories that I don't own. Enjoy!

They had found the room; along with Potter, the diadem, and his wand. The four of them had their wands trained on Potter, although Draco's eyes kept straying towards Kagome. The timing couldn't have been more perfect in his mind. She was due for another dose very soon and, from what he could tell, whenever something came up that reminded her of who she really was, it brought her back that much quicker. This was his last chance to save her, even if it meant sacrificing himself.

When Weasley and Granger came running up, he quickly pushed Kagome into their arms and ran. He winced when he saw her crash into a pile of junk, but turned to follow his fellow Slytherins while Weasley chased them away.

He heard Potter telling Granger. "Stay with her."

As Harry quickly climbed the mountain of discarded furniture to retrieve the diadem from where it landed, Hermione did her best to help the girl in her arms. Harry had told them a while ago that Kagome had been taken against her will and that she had seen what had happened to Dumbledore in that tower. He had also told them how Draco had not only lied about not recognizing the three of them, but that he had seemed to silently beg Harry to take her away and save her when they escaped Malfoy Manor. She had not believed it, of course, but this time she saw it. When the pale haired boy had pushed her towards them, he had looked hopeful and relieved.

Kagome came around quickly, looking around before her clear blue eyes met hers. "Hermione, are you alright? Are you hurt? What about Ron and Harry?"

She nearly laughed, leave it to this girl to spend months under the effects of a mind-altering potion and be more concerned about everyone else. "I'm fine, what about you?"

Before she could answer, Harry jumped down with the diadem and Ron was yelling at them to run. It took barely a second for them to notice the heat rising in the room, something dangerous was coming.

AN:I think it's really important to show that when Draco had another chance to save Kagome, he took it without hesitation, even when he knows it will cost his life when he returns to Voldemort. Don't you agree? Warm-Fuzzies and please review!
