A/N: No, you didn't miss anything, I posted two chapters back to back. And it's official! Your favorite line in this story is "He-who-is-annoying"! Wow! I don't think I got one review where it wasn't mentioned. Glad you liked it.

"Crucio," Voldemort said. At that moment, Draco truly hated the wizard responsible for that spell. What he wouldn't have given for a time turner to kill the bastard. However, he did not scream. He would not give those wretched excuses for sentient beings the satisfaction of hearing him scream.

After a few minutes, Voldemort lowered his wand. "I should kill you," he said so calmly you'd think he was talking about mowing the lawn or some other mundane task. Draco laughed.
"Do you think that by killing me you'll finally be able to kill him? It doesn't matter if you kill me or if you kill half the wizard world. There will always be someone willing to protect Harry." He collapsed onto the stone floor.

"I think you killed him," Lucius said after a while.
"Damn," Voldemort said. "And I was hoping to torture him some more later."
"He's breathing," Vincent said.
"Barely," Lucius remarked, inspecting him.
"How long do you think he'll be out?" Voldemort inquired.
"An hour probably," Lucius replied.
"We'll be waiting for him when he wakes up."
"Harry-" Vincent said.
"What about him?" Lucius asked.
"He'll come back for Draco."
"How do you know?" Voldemort asked.
"It's the right thing to do," Vincent laughed.
"H'm. Lucius, make arrangements for when the boy does arrive." Lucius bowed and disapparated. The rest of the Death Eaters left the room. The door closed with a heavy thud. In a corner near the door, Harry Potter appeared.

He had seen everything from under his invisibility cloak. With the aid of the Helper he had found the Death Eaters and followed them here. It had taken all his will power to keep from interfering. A light fluttered into the room through the keyhole. "Are they gone?" Harry asked.
"Yes," the Helper replied.
"Good." Harry knelt down and with much difficulty, picked Draco up off the floor. It was amazing how much he weighed for somebody so small in build. With help, Harry managed to arrange the folds of the cloak to cover him and Draco. "Try the door," he told the Helper.
"Locked," it said. Harry tried his wand. No good. Well he'd just have to wait.

He didn't have to wait long. One of Voldemort's followers opened the door to find that the chamber was empty. He stepped inside to examine it. Harry walked right through the door and closed it behind him, hoping that would delay the Death Eaters. He followed the Helper off the grounds and made his escape on the Knight Bus.

When Draco came to, the first things he saw were Remus Lupin and Sirius Black. "Ah, you're awake," Harry remarked smiling.
"Harry?" Draco said.
"Yes?"
"Are you aware that we're in a room with a werewolf and a convicted killer?"
"Uh-huh."
"Okay, just checking," Draco said. He turned to Harry. "Do you mind telling me why?" Harry laughed.
"Remus is a friend of the family and Sirius is my godfather."
"But why am I here?"
"Would you rather we send you back to your father?" Sirius asked.
"Sirius!" Remus said.
"Don't mind him. We're going to stay here for a while," Harry explained.
"WE?"
"It's just until holiday is over."
"And then?"
"Then we go to Dumbledore."
"And then?"
"And then, we'll see," Harry replied.

The end! That was such a crappy ending, you know there's got to be a sequel! That is, if you're still interested in this. In the sequel to the sequel: I'm not quite sure. Let me know what you'd be interested in, besides killing Lucius. Review!

Love,
