See the first chapter for the disclaimer. Sorry this is so short, I was
sitting at my computer typing and we lost power, one of the perks of living
in California, and I lost the five pages I typed. This is part of it. The
rest I'll recover later. Leave me reviews!
* * * "D-Draco?" Harry stuttered.
"You were expecting maybe the Tooth Fairy?" Draco drawled. Harry looked at him oddly. Draco's look softened.
"You mean you really don't remember me?" Draco inquired. He took a step towards Harry. Harry took a step back. Draco took another step forward and Harry took another one back and hit the brick wall of the cell. Draco stepped up next to him and reached a hand out as if to lay it on Harry's face. Harry flinched and shied away, ducking under Draco's arm, then running to the other side of the cell.
"A.Are you real?" Harry asked. He took a step towards Draco. He tripped over an invisible bump in the floor. Draco's seeker reflexes kicked in and he caught Harry before he hit the ground. Draco swept Harry up in to his arms and looked down at his skinny malnourished body.
"Don't they feed you here?" Draco asked, gently, softly not wanting to press the over-taxed man in his arms. Harry raised his head and looked in to Draco's steel gray eyes. Draco almost flinched at Harry's eyes. They were no longer the vibrant green they had been at school, they were now the color of dying grass, as though something in Harry has died along with his eye color. Harry's reply was barely audible.
"Only if we're good." Draco's temper flared at this one statement. Azkaban was no longer controlled by the dementors. The Ministry had pulled them off Azkaban when Voldermort came back in to power. The Ministry was afraid that the dementors would turn Azkaban over to Voldermort. The Ministry had been hard pressed to find guards, they had ended up hiring humans. Unfortunately, many thought that the prison was better off in the hands of the dementors. At least the dementors were impartial. Many of the new guards took it upon them selves to punish the inmates, usually with beatings. When they had gotten word of the Boy Who Lived and his crime, they were especially excited about helping to punish him. Barely a week went by where Harry didn't get a sound beating.
Draco fumed at the thought that the guard had been starving Harry. He looked down at Harry. Harry had paled visibly. His eyes rolled back in to his head and he passed out, the excitement of the day catching up with him. Draco readjusted how he was holding Harry, moving his arms so one was behind his back and one was under his legs.
"Fuck, you're light, Harry. Akuuma's gonna be pissed." Draco said to Harry's unconscious form. "Why do I always get the search and rescue missions." He then continued to him self. Draco sighed, and took one more glance at the still form in his arms. " I hope this works." Draco morphed back in to the bird form pulling Harry in to it with him. He hopped back on to the window sill and took off in to the night.
* * * Thanks to all who reviewed the first chapter. I had to reload it once or twice so some of the reviews got deleted, but thanks for reading all who did. Fanny chan - no he's not animagi, its something else. But im not saying what yet. Muse - Glad you like it Slashybubble - I didn't really want to kill off Sirius, but he was the only one I could think of a bunch of reasons, why in the public's eye it would look like something Harry could do. Rachelfan5000 - I was hoping that the summary would throw people off, glad you liked the chapter
* * * In the next chapter - We find out who Akuuma is Light is shed on the current Voldermort problems We find out why Draco is working for Akuuma and how she got involved in the wizard war.
