A/n: This is my longest chapter yet, at 793 words without any notes. I was
thinking of redoing the prologue, but do you want me to redo it? Oh, I
stopped the Harry chapter there because I am an evil bitch.
Disclaimers: All I own is a three-legged leprechaun named Pixie.
Dedicated: to paru/paul cuz I made you review and read the chapters and cuz you said you would help me take over the world, so this is for you 'paulie' *giggles* told you I was evil.
Draco had tripped because the steps were built in a staggered pattern. Every seventh step was either deeper or shallower then the step before and after it. It was just one of the ways Lucius kept his prisoners from escaping. He fell back one flight of stairs before managing to catch himself.
When he was trying to get up, and putting weight on his arm, he discovered that his left arm was broken or sprained. It took him five minutes to get up, and he nearly blacked out from the pain. It took him another ten minutes to get up the flight of stairs he had just fallen down.
~~~Half hour later~~~
'Jeez, who would have thought that climbing stairs would be so hard,' he thought as he stared at the door in front of him. He would have to walk through the basement, go up another flight of stairs, and sneak through the house, and get through the wards his father had set up around the premises, and get to a safe place. 'Well, step ones done, now the basement, I'm going to be in serious pain by the time I'm done.'
He limped through the basement towards the stairway when he heard a noise. He jumped into the shadows, but when he saw what was making the noise, he laughed at himself. 'It was just a dormouse. I can't believe I was afraid of a dormouse.' Heart pounding, he continued towards the door, but began to notice the bottles with poison warnings lining the shelves, and illegal substances. He saw cyanide and arsenic, and gryphon blood, and dragon eggs? He didn't want to know why Lucius had dragon eggs in the basement. He stumbled into the bottom step and lost his train of thought.
At the top of the stairs, he opened the door and jumped when it creaked. He waited for ten gut-wrenching minute before being sure no one was going to investigate. He stepped into the hallway, and looked down it worriedly. His father's study was in the next hallway, and that was the quickest way to the door.
He soon came to the hallway, but noted with a sigh of relief that the door was shut. He walked as silently as possible past the door, but he heard voices and decided to investigate.
"Ssssttoppp, pppllease mmmyy lord. I wwwill hhhelp Lucius gget Ppppotter," an unknown voice said. "You are to kill Potter after he arrives a Hogwarts, sometime before the end of the year, Quirrel. I will make my move towards the middle of the year to get mud-blood loving Dumbledore removed from his office," Lucius drawled in an even, yet excited tone.
Draco filed that information away before continuing on his way. He hobbled as fast as possible towards the front door, which was straight ahead.
He went through the door, and meet the ward closest to the house. It was pain, pain enough to drive someone mad, and had done so to attackers in the past. He nearly gave up from the pain, but the pain would be worse if he gave up. Li he died before getting out, at least that would be better then being a broken slave to Lucius. 'Besides, didn't some squib once say, Give me liberty, or give me death?' That determination was what got him past the rest of that ward, and into a clear area.
If he remembered correctly, the next ward would show what he feared the most. It worked sort of like a boggart, but his father was fond of saying it was ten timed worse. He really didn't want to know what he feared the most. He figured he would see himself, as a mindless slave to his father. However, that wasn't what he saw. He saw himself, sitting at the Slytherin table, then a scene change, and he saw Voldemort, alive. He ran forward in anger and broke out of that ward, but immediately hit the next one.
This was supposed to entrap someone with what there heart desired the most. It could be anything to Draco. He had never had time to wonder what he wanted as he tried to survive his father's anger. He stepped forward, and saw himself with friends. He had never had a friend before. He saw himself as one of the best in the class. He saw himself loved, and people who actually cared for him. 'No, it's a lie, no one cares about me.' And Draco tore himself away from the enticing visions and stumbled out of the last ward. He summoned the Knight Bus, and asked it to take him to The Three Broomsticks, where he say a red-haired man with a bundle wrapped in his cloak.
A/n: See Harry gets rescued, but this chapter ends ahead of the other chapter, so you will see Harry getting rescued.
~~~~~~~~To Reviewers~~~~~~~~~~~
Prophetess of Hearts: I was already planning that, but I couldn't think of a name. Any suggestions would be helpful.
Paru: Yes, I am an evil malicious little bitch, and English class is no fun without you. Getting ISS on a Friday is just plain stupid! How is the fic coming along, wait, you won't know till Monday, that's what you get for letting your parents know you lied to a teacher.
Shinigami: Yes, it was. This is what happens now. Maybe, maybe not
Nicky: *grins* Yes, I can, it will be continued though.
RandomBabbling: Yes, I could do with some practice, but I'm trying, and that's all that counts.
Moonlight: Thanks for reviewing.
Blueflames: cuz I'm an evil psychotic bitch?
I tried to make the chapters longer, and sad to say, this is long for me.
Please leave a review on the way out. I accept flames to. I like to have insult contest, and I don't get anger, even when a friend calls me a he/she, cause I can insult right back.
