(LOL. Who are you?)
A/N: Okay, here it is! A brand new chapter! This took me a long time to write and I was sick when I wrote it, so PLEASE be nice! Remember to R/R!!
Hermione felt her forehead break out into a light sweat as she followed Pettigrew down the long hallways in the auditorium. Draco appeared too be as equally nervous. They both expected that at any time, Pettigrew would recognize them, and then they would be captured or worse by Lucius.
Pettigrew suddenly stopped in front of a dark and forbidding doorway. He smirked, "Are you ready to see the little princess?"
Hermione flinched at the rude way that Pettigrew was calling Blaise a little princess when she was in so much danger. However, she just nodded to answer Pettigrew's question.
Pettigrew eyed Hermione, and Draco. He shook his head, "You two just seem so familiar, but I just cannot put my finger on why."
Draco put on the best brave smile that he could, "Oh! Don't be ridiculous. We only know you, because the Dark Lord would brag with how wonderful you were! You never met us before. We are newbies!"
Pettigrew could not help, but look pleased with himself, "Well, the Dark Lord does believe I have great qualities. Maybe someday I will be his heir."
Draco continued to smile back, although his thoughts were ~ You can only wish, you moron. ~
Pettigrew continued to say in a cocky voice, "Oh yes! The Dark Lord has great plans in store for me. Anyway, here is the star of the show!"
Hermione bit her lip as Pettigrew opened the door. Draco gasped when he looked inside, and he was also repulsed.
Blaise was in no condition as a princess would be. Blaise was unconscious in her gurney. Blaise was wrapped up in filthy white robes, and her long flowing curly black hair, had been chopped off in an uneven bob. Also Hermione and Draco could see her arms lined with horrible black and blue bruises. Even though Blaise was not very nice when Hermione, Draco, and everyone else were at Hogwarts, they still felt like she did not deserve this.
"Doesn't she look lovely?" came Pettigrew's voice, "Well, we better hurry! We are on a tight schedule as you know."
Hermione nodded, and Pettigrew instructed them to push the gurney as he led the way to the entrance of the main area of the audtitroum. Hermione looked down at Blaise as they pushed her. Hermione felt terrible for her. They should have made Blaise run with them when she helped them escaped Hogwarts after Voldemort made his appearance. Yet then again, Lucius would have tracked them down anyway. Hermione looked at Draco. His eyes avoided the vulnerable Blaise. Hermione could tell that it pained him to look at her.
Finally Pettigrew opened two huge elegant doors that lead to an enormous room with lots and lots of seats. Hermione gasped with wonder. This auditorium was simply amazing. Draco thought it was incredible too. There were just so many people in this one huge room. Pettigrew looked at the two and winked, "Break a leg!"
Hermione forced a tiny smile, and nodded. Pettigrew turned to the audience, and said in a booming, magnified voice, "Ladies and gentlemen! I am Doctor Cusuil. I am here to present the Relegarecoromy that your wonderful professor Dulandez had promised you! Now, these are my two assistants that will be here to help. Take a bow, you two!"
Hermione and Draco gulped and hesitantly took a bow for the large group of students in front of them. Hermione noticed that the professors had the front row reserved for themselves. However, she took notice that Fleur was missing. ~That's odd. ~ Hermione thought.
Pettigrew smiled, and continued to say, "This is the first time ever such an operation was performed for students. Beauxbatons shall be famous for this occurrence."
The student clapped loudly. Hermione tried to smile, but she couldn't. Hermione was frightened that Lucius would come bursting in at any moment. He was evil, number one, and number two, he was not as stupid as Pettigrew, and would surely recognize them. Pettigrew slowly turned to Draco and handed him a large sharp object that appeared to be a knife. Hermione gasped with horror. It was the same knife that the Death Eater had tried to attack her with. Hermione had to do her best to keep her shock and surprise hidden.
Draco took the knife with trembling hands and looked down at the helpless Blaise. ~ Please have her wake up. ~ Draco thought.
Pettigrew turned around and whispered to Draco, "You begin the lovely killing process, while I explain what is going on. It appears that Lucius is running late, and I have no idea why, so we better start ourselves."
Draco nodded, and looked back down at Blaise. Hermione sighed, and joined Draco at staring at Blaise. She seemed so innocent, which was probably something that she was not for a long time. Hermione bit her lip, and remembered how Blaise helped them escape from Hogwarts. Pettigrew began talking about how interesting the operation was, and it left Draco and Hermione lost in thought about Blaise, and the different things that she had done.
Pettigrew turned back around to the two, and snarled, "What are you two idiots standing around for. Start ripping her chest into bloody pulp so we can get the job finished!"
Draco nodded, and whispered, "Y-Yes sir."
He looked down and raised the knife. Hermione stared at Draco and mouthed to him, "Can we run?"
Draco shook his head. He figured that there was going to be basically no chance of escape. He knew it deep down that they would probably not get away.
As Draco looked down at Blaise, he remembered Jewel and how helpless she was to her father's attack. She was defenseless, and now so was Blaise. Draco shook his head, and muttered too loudly, "I can't do this."
"What!" Pettigrew cried, while a horrified Hermione looked on.
Suddenly a loud voice was heard that Hermione and Draco had no trouble recognizing. "They are NOT the real assistants you fool!"
Hermione felt a sick swoop of worry in her stomach. She glanced up toward the entrance of the great auditorium. Standing there was a furious looking Lucius with two Death Eaters, Crabbe and Goyle standing on each side of him, who were obvious meant to be the real helpers in the operation. Hermione and Draco could tell that Lucius was looking murderous. (A/N: I was going to leave it here, but ugh I would be killed).
Draco felt his heart stop. They had been caught. Pettigrew looked confused, "What is going on L- ugh Dulandez? What do you mean these are not the real assistants?"
Every face in the auditorium was now focused on Lucius/Dulandez and Pettigrew. Lucius looked like he was really to lose his patience. Hermione felt a smile tug at her mouth. Maybe Lucius would give himself away.
Lucius was about to scream every horrible thing that he could think of, but stopped. Then a huge and evil smirk appeared on his face as he stared at Hermione and Draco. Lucius turned around to face the huge audience, "I have just discovered a hideous crime on the scene of Beauxbatons Academy."
There were several gasps heard in the audience. Hermione felt her insides shaking. What was this horrible person up too? "Yes," Lucius continued slowly and evilly, "there was a terrible murder performed on the grounds of Beauxbatons. A while ago, a man named 'Lucius' was convicted of crimes, but was murdered before he could be brought to justice. It is evident that his own son murdered him."
There were several gasps heard in the audience. Lucius sneered and continued, "Oh, yes. Draco Malfoy is responsible for killing Lucius Malfoy. His foolish muggle girlfriend also helped, and his little friends were also involved. And now look! They were about to perform the operation totally wrong, and murder this poor young lady."
Draco looked at the knife that he had clutched in his hand, and back down the still knocked out Blaise. He felt hopeless. The audience would surely believe Lucius, because practically everyone was looking down at Draco and Hermione with immense disgust. Suddenly another voice was heard from the audience, "YOU ARE A LIAR!"
Lucius glared into the audience to see a group of students making their way down closer to the front of the auditorium. Harry, Ginny, Ron, and Pansy were walking closer and closer. "You are a liar!" Pansy retorted, "We all know that the only murderer here is YOU!"
Lucius laughed, "Oh! Well, look who it is! It is the group of gangsters who was responsible for several different crimes!"
Everyone stared, and some students began to cry out, "We never trusted those strange British children who came here anyway!"
Lucius looked completely smug, "Yes, it IS them. The worthless people who claim to be heroes but really are murderers. Look how they were about to slice this poor girl's heart out. Well, don't just stand there. Catch them!"
Hermione and Draco wasted no time. The entire audience believed Lucius. Hermione and Draco immediately began to push the gurney out of the huge room, with Ginny, Harry, Ron, and Pansy running at their heels. Lucius's voice boomed loudly, "DON'T LET THEM ESCAPE! STOP THEM! GET THEM!"
Hermione and Draco ran and ran, and Pansy was screaming, "What are we going to do! We have to get out of here!"
Ron gasped, "TRAMS!"
Ginny was panting as she ran, "What in the world do you mean by 'trams'?"
Ron continued, "Those buses that brought us to Beauxbatons on the first day. We can escape on one of them. There are some at the entrance of Beauxbatons!"
"Good thinking," Harry replied.
The group continued to run and push Blaise as fast as they could until the reached the outside. The students of Beauxbatons were screaming and there was complete chaos everywhere. The group could still here Lucius's voice calling over the crowd, "Those vile killers won't get away! Catch them!"
Harry immediately stopped one of the trams at the front entrance of the school. "Come on," he cried, "Hurry!"
The Draco lifted Blaise up onto his shoulder, and climbed into the tram, followed by the rest of the gang. Fortunately the trams were run purely by magic, and there was no driver to stop the group. Soon the magic came into effect, and took the group away from Beauxbatons, one place where they thought they would be safe from Lucius's grasp.
OK, things get really complicated (no pun intended) from this point on. Are you ready? I hope so!
