When I grow up
------------------

Draco trudged the way to Hogsmeade.It was one of those weekends
he liked.But there was something in the air that created a
tension.

(Flashback)
|///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///|

"Draco, a word..."

"Yes Father?"

"I feel the time is right for you to take up the Malfoy honour
and take this blade." Lucius passed an 11 year old Draco a
dagger with peculiar markings on its red and green handle.

"But, but, Father, what do I do with it?"

"Keep it until your own son comes of age, or until you die,"

"Anything else, Father?"

"No.You may leave."

|\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\|

Draco went to the Hogsmeade inn, the Three Broomsticks, and
bought a drink.He noticed that there was a change in decor,
in time for the Easter season.Once he finished his Butterbeer,
he went to search for Crabbe and Goyle.He needed company.

[Well, lil Drakie is lonely!]

"I've been lonely all my life," muttered Draco.

|\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\|

"Mommy?"

"Yes Draco?Make haste, for I have an appointment to attend"

"I wanna tell you..."

"Yes?" Narcissa snapped.

"I wanna be like daddy when I grow up!"

(!!!)

|///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///|

[Like Father?Pah!I no longer want to be like that bastard]

*Grunt* *Grunt*

"Ah, Vincent, Greg, there you are!" Draco said.

"We thought you were having time...ahhh...what's the word?"
Crabbe muttered dully.

"Alone?"[Alone?] Draco questioned.

"Yea, that's it," Crabbe and Goyle chorused.(A/N:chorusedI hope that
is an accurate word)

"Forget it, it's not a problem.Okay?" [Friggin idiots, they wouldn't
understand]

Both the huge boys nodded their heads.

Draco rolled his eyes.[Well it ain't my fault these are dimwits.It
must be hereditary]

Then an announcement was made in the villiage square, telling all
Hogwarts students to return to their school as fast as possible.

[Must be the plan...I just go back until Father summons me...]

Draco sighed, then brought Goyle and Crabbe to the path leading
to the school.

[When I finally come of age, I'm going to go away from this
hellhole.I'm going to fly away...]
