A/N: YAY! Time for another chapter!! What shall happen? Let us see!! Also my e-mail isn't working so I couldn't e-mail you update people. SORRY!!
Lucius smirked as he led the two through the streets of the dark city. Paris was like a ghost town that night. Nobody was in the streets, and it was deathly silent. The snow continued to fall softly.
Lucius seemed very pleased with himself that he had two innocent people in his evil grasp. Hermione and Draco were terrified deep down, but they could not let Lucius see how frightened they were. They had to remain as strong as possible.
Lucius turned around and shook his head, "You poor little children. I hope you know what waits before you. Your friends are not in the best condition one might say."
Hermione avoided Lucius's dark gaze as she muttered, "I am sure they are fine. You are just trying to scare us."
Lucius chuckled, "Am I now? Well, Jewel always thought I would 'just be trying to scare her' Well, Jewel learned better from that."
Draco looked up and stared at his father. He thought about Jewel again, and he could not take the pain that was building up inside of him. Jewel was dead, all thanks to Lucius Malfoy.
"Why did you do it?" Draco shouted before he could stop himself, "Why did you feel like you needed to murder Jewel!?"
Hermione stared at Lucius, and nodded. Draco's shout echoed through the dark empty streets of Paris, and cut the silence in half. Draco continued to shout, "Why did you kill her! She was your own flesh and blood! Why father! You did not HAVE to do it! She was my sister! She was-"
Draco couldn't take it anymore. He gripped onto Hermione tightly and turned away from Lucius. Hermione hugged Draco close to her as though she were frightened that he would slip away from her at any moment.
Hermione felt herself whisper, "Jewel is better now. She is so much better not being here and seeing all of this."
"But why did you do it?" Draco said painfully.
Lucius glared at the two, "Do you want to know why? Nilam. It's his entire fault! He was considered 'perfect', and everyone liked him, even Narcissa! He tried to take her away from me on more then one occasion!'
Draco shook his head, "Father, you are making little sense! That has nothing to do with Jewel!"
Lucius snarled back, "Jewel acted just like Nilam in everyway. The annoying way she attracted people was just like my brother. Everyone simply loved him! I could not take it! Killing both of them was the only way to stop the pain. You should know that, Draco. But there was another reason I had to- wait a second."
Lucius stopped walking for a moment and began to think. He seemed to dwelling on something that was very important. He mumbled under his breath, "I still can't find it, but maybe Nyssa would know-maybe."
Lucius shrugged and continued to walk. Hermione and Draco followed him. They did not have much of a choice after all, since they were bound by a spell that kept them no more then five feet away from Lucius.
~*~*~*~
They walked for about an hour. Lucius suddenly stopped. They were standing before the great statues of Helen and Pansee. Hermione bit her lip and thought ~ Why are we here? I thought he was going to take us to our friends. ~
Lucius smirked and walked up to the bottom of the statues. He read the inscription and grinned, "Oh! That was such a shame wasn't it? Why did they have to be killed?"
Hermione felt a cold sweat break out on her forehead. They were in very grave danger. They were trapped with an evil Death Eater who did not hesitant to kill his own brother and daughter.
Lucius turned around and continued smirking wickedly, "Oh, I am taking you to your friends, dear little mudblood. You don't need to worry about that."
Hermione felt herself trembling. How did Lucius know what she was thinking? She did not say anything aloud! Draco snarled, "Well, hurry up father! You know how I don't like to wait for things I want!"
Lucius flinched, "I know that well enough, Draco. However, I find it hard to believe that you want your foul 'friends' back. Then again you would drop everything that you believe to date this foul little mudblood. So I am not surprised."
Draco glared and Hermione was silent. She could feel her heart pounding very rapidly in her chest. Lucius bent over the inscription and rubbed his hand gently across it. He did this three times, and muttered something in a language that neither Hermione nor Draco understood.
Then suddenly, a huge entrance beneath the two statues opened up. There was a staircase that led deep into the darkness below the statues of the grand princesses. It seemed to simply drop into the darkness.
Hermione gasped, "Are they-"
"Yes little mudblood. Yes." Lucius sneered, "Well hurry along now!"
Lucius slowly descended into the dark stairway and Hermione and Draco were forced to follow.
~*~*~*~
It was dark as the blackness of midnight. There were spider webs hanging from the ceiling of the chamber. The walls were crumbling from old age, and were made of dark stone. But the worst of all, was that there were skulls and human remains lying all down the hall.
Lucius laughed a cold laugh that bounced off of the walls, "Oh yes. This is the Crypt of the Royal Family's Army. Most of them were killed, and buried under the statues of Helen and Pansee. Very interesting."
Lucius continued to walk. Hermione and Draco closely followed him, because they were forced to of course. Draco whispered, "I am glad Jewel was buried in the lake. I can't imagine a happy eleven year old girl in the ground like this."
Hermione nodded and whispered, "I know."
After walking down the huge hallway, Hermione, Draco, and Lucius entered a tremendous room. It was a dungeon and the only light came from the dimly lit candles that were on the walls. There was a whole group of Death Eaters standing in the room. They were all masked, and Hermione thought she saw the one who nearly killed her in the library that night. There was a faded red carpet that led to a wall with chains.
Hermione cried out with horror and Draco went paler then ever before. Harry, Ginny, Pansy, Ron, and Blaise were chained to the frigid stone wall. They were uncoucious and breathing very slowly. Hermione could see their breath for they were so cold. Her best friends looked on the brink of death.
Lucius smirked, and the Death Eaters snickered amongst one another. "There are your friends." Lucius sneered in a most evil and nasty way.
How much darker can you get? Am I going overboard guys? Well, I hope you liked it nonetheless ^_^
