Run Home Draco
Draco was asleep when the felt the bump of the carriage hit the floor. He jerked a awake suddenly and almost squashed Jezzy who was sat beside him. His mother quickly unlatched the door and climbed out.
"Sybill?" She called out quietly. There was no answer.
Draco peered out his window and looked around. All he saw was a pale haze through the night. He rubbed the sleep out of his eyes and tried again. Again all he saw was the smoky haze. The fog was so thick he could barely see a metre in front of him. He pulled open the latch and stepped out into the mysterious haze. He took a few steps and looked back. There was no more horses, no more carriage. Draco swallowed worry. They are still there, just behind a thin layer of fog.
A dull rattling sound was heard, like chains being dragged. Draco felt a tug on his robes. He started. He almost lashed out at the small house elf.
"Drakky! This is fun!" Chirped the elf.
"Oh, I read Scrooge... I hope this isn't one of your pranks and your sending Marley this way!" Draco scalded.
Jezzy was too busy bouncing and tugging on his robes to notice what he was saying. But Draco was beginning to get slightly more worried than normal.
The rattling metal got closer to where they stood, even Jezzy stopped her bouncing to listen.
A hand grabbed Draco and pulled him forward. Two pairs of huge bespectacled eyes peered at him.
"You stupid, stupid boy... just like your father wandering off when you are meant to be staying put." Scalded professor Sybil Trelawney.
"P.. p... professor?" Draco was almost fuming at the fact he mistook Trelawney's jewellery for Jacob Marley.
"Why are you here when you should be helping save Hogwarts huh?" She said urgently.
"What's up with Hogwarts?" He asked, remembering what his mother had said when he left the Mansion... How long ago was that?
"You better get to Hogwarts.... and Harry!" She almost whispered.
"Harry?"
"I said Hurry!" She barked.
"No you said Harry!" He maintained.
"Young Malfoy, you hear what you wanted to hear." Her eyes narrowed. "So you do have an obsession with Harry Potter!" She eyed him suspiciously.
Draco began to argue. "You are trying to trick me, you definitely said..." His eyes bulged in realisation. "Harry! He's still at Hogwarts. Its under Attack?"
He pulled himself from the surprisingly strong bony hand. "I have to get there and Harry... uhh, I mean hurry. Damn you, you got me at it now. Quick, how do I get there?"
"Draco, what are you doing... oh Sybil, there you are." Narcissa said calmly.
"Mother! I have to go. I have to go and save Harry." He looked around.
"Young Mr Malfoy!" Professor Trelawney held out a brown paper bag.
"Sybill No! You can't send him there. He will die for sure!" His mother whimpered.
"Ah, Narcissa my dear. I am a Divinator of the highest order..."
"Dumbledore said you only ever made two true divinations!" Draco complained. "One was that you predicted the return of Voldemort and his servant."
"Do you know the first one?" Trelawney asked knowingly. Draco shook his head impatiently. "Well, I predicted that two people, two opposites attracting would spark a new beginning for Hogwarts. People thought that it meant the rise of power of the Dark Lord and the war against light. It certainly did change Hogwarts, but what I'm referring to now is something much closer to home." She pointed at Draco's heart. He could feel her shabby nails pressing into his skin.
Draco looked at his mother. She took a deep breath and said. "Go. You have your fathers courage and determination. But if you break a leg, don't come running to me." She forced a smile.
Draco gave his mother a comforting smile. "Don't worry mother. I intend to come back."
Professor Trelawney shoved the paper bag towards Draco. "Take it. Its a portkey, it will take you into my home."
"A portkey, how can it get into Hogwarts with all the wards in place?" Draco questioned.
"Wards created by Dumbledore can be controlled by Dumbledore. No one knows of this portkey, and I ask you to keep it a secret. It was a gift from Dumbledore." She said calmly.
"Why tell me? Surely I would be the last person to divulge this type of information." Draco said, telling what he knew other people thought about him.
"Draco my dear, I know you and what you are capable of. Besides, you will be staying with me for some time." She said to him. Draco looked at her with a look of understanding.
Draco reached into the bag and grasped a small round crystal. He was suddenly pulled forward like someone had grabbed him and yanked. He was familiar with the feeling but it always wreaked fear through him.
A/N: Yes it was all about Draco. Harry and Draco will be in the next one, and expect a bit of fluff - I love fluffiness. Oh and the relationship between Jezzy and Draco will become apparent very soon, as I have a friend writing that particular chapter.
