A/n: Hi there fellow readers! Oh my goodness, I managed to nail the largest numbers of reviews in the last chapter. Yay! I would really like to thank all of you for reviewing my fic and that particular chapter. True, I have a very different approach when it comes to writing this fic. I like the fact that Ginny's character is not mentioned a lot because it brings more opinions from the author. I had one reviewer asking me whether I am a slut or a slut wannabe. Hehehe, I can't help but laugh at that comment. No, I am not a slut or a slut wannabe. I don't go screwing guys around getting my reputation. Nah that is totally not me. I'm just an author who has low self esteem in her writings but tends to make a different approach with her ideas. However, I am very grateful to those people who reviewed my stories. I am absolutely grateful and flattered by your words. :D I think that would be it from me because this is so long! So continue on with the story, enjoy and review the story. :D Thanks again.

The Princess of Darkness stands next to her Prince in crime and in prosecution, kindness no longer seen but cruelty and harsh reality slaps through the edge of the tale, giving you the reason to read this story.

No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..............................
Please don't kill me...
Who are you? Why are you doing this???...............
She's only a child.. Please spare her....
Oh God. No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A struck of pain hit her chest and she bolted up. She woke up covered with sweat and fear. She opened her eyes just to find that she was still in the Malfoy Manor, in her room, nonetheless. She felt very weak as though as she had used up all of her energy. The sky outside was still dark with the winter's night. She felt really different somehow. She had a massive nightmare. She had dreamt about killing people right after an initiation gathering with Voldemort. She had dreamt that she killed many people with her own hands. She killed innocent children, women and men all together. The worst part of her dream was that she had enjoyed what she had done.
She went to the bay window and looked outside. Just then, she noticed her reflection on the mirror. She looked different. Her long red fiery hair had black streaks in them and her skin was so pale. She gave herself another look over just to find a scar on her collarbone. That was when it hit her.
*Flash back*
"No.... Please don't kill her. She's only a child. Take us and be done with it.... Just please spare the child..." the mother wailed for the child.
A middle aged woman was holding her child, protecting her. Virginia had already stood in front of her, cold and heartless. Draco was behind her with the same expression on his face. The man had already been killed and was hanging by the fan. It was an easy kill. It had felt good. Virginia stood in front of the mother and child. Her eyes black as coal and without a single feeling in them. The woman tried as far as she could to hurt Virginia but it didn't work. She went to the level of scratching her but all she left was just a scar.
Virginia waved her hand at the woman and she went flying towards the wall, knocking her head with a hard impact. It was hard enough to kill her. The child was lying on the floor, looking scared and innocent. Virginia made it an easy one for the child. She blasted an energy ball at her and immediately, the child fell to the ground with blood coming out of her mouth. The souls of the three muggles that they just killed were collected as energy. It had brought them power and hunger for more. The two left for another helpless home to do another kill.
*end of flashback*
It had happened for real. She felt pain on her chest. Something was wrong. Then, she heard Draco yelling in pain from his room. She ran to his room through the connected door. Draco was on his bed, twisting and turning as if someone was torturing him. She could see that blood was staining his shirt. It was happening for him, for real. His dream was consuming him. She had to wake him up. Flashes of sharp light were hitting him and with every hit there was a cut. She shook him hard, trying to get him to wake up.
"Draco! Get up! Draco!!!! Wake up!!!" she shouted.
He twisted and turned again. He was moving in pain. She could see him in pain but he wasn't waking up. It scared her and it made her worried. Tears just started to pour out. She was scared and she didn't know what to do. She didn't know what she could do. She just ripped his shirt to see that blood was dripping from several scars. She just did what she thought would work. She climbed on top of him and kissed him with everything she had. Tears were falling down and fear was taking over. She couldn't think of anyway else to wake him up. As soon as her lips touched his, he started to calm down a bit.
He was still not waking up. She shouted for help and immediately a few house elves appeared. They saw what Ginny wanted them to do. Together, they busily got to cleaning Draco and trying to wake him up but nothing worked. He had calmed down but he was losing blood. The house elves cleaned up his wound and bandaged them. When Ginny saw that they couldn't do anything anymore, she dismissed them.
In the dim lights of the candle, she watched as he slept. She couldn't figure out what had been put on him. She held his hand in hers. She was scared for him and obviously very worried as well. For the past few months, it had been magical being with him. They had gone through a rather random kind of phase. It had all begun with a game of seduction and a game of provoking anger out of the Dream Team but now, it was something more than just infatuation. The relationship went deeper as they both found out that they were both ranked Death Eaters. Tom had done it to her and as much as she hated him for it, she had accepted it as her life and the way she's supposed to be with Draco.
"So you have finally fallen for the boy, Virginia", a cold voice said.
She flinched at the sound of his voice. It was the Dark Lord himself in his younger form, Tom Riddle. He stood at the very dark corner, just behind her. She turned around to face him and nodded to his statement. She admitted it. She had indeed fallen for Draco. As much as she wanted to admit that emotions are weaknesses, she must accept the fact that she has them. Voldemort stood behind her and looked at the unconscious form of Draco. Ginny felt chills running up her spine in a sense of fear.
"He certainly stands out as the Dark Prince, doesn't he? Emotionless, cold, heartless and icy but a prince must always have his princess by his side. She must be an equivalent of him. She must be a seductress, a temptress, a fiery character but cold in hatred. She is sitting in front of me, feeling warm and caring towards the Prince. What a pity?" he said.
Ginny felt anger overtaking her, followed by hatred. As hatred filled her mind, her eye color changed to pure black. She had completely transformed to her dark mode. She stood, glaring at the Dark Lord. Some sort of a fiery hoop had encircled her.
"Why did you choose me? Why did you lead me to think that you had once cared for me? Why me, Tom?" she asked.
"You were a mistake at the beginning. You weren't supposed to be the one who receive the diary but since you got it, I made use of you to open the Chamber of Secrets. As I got to know you through the diary, I found that you have something very useful to me. You have desires, hatred and revenge unlike any other girls of your age. I turned the mistake to my advantage and made you the Dark Princess", he explained.
"Was he a part of your plan as well? Draco?" she asked.
"From the very beginning I had sense anger out of the boy and it was in his blood to be a Death Eater but I had foreseen that you two will come together. He has exactly what you have, emotion wise. He is as fiery as you are and he is as cold as you are. The hatred that you both share for Potter and his two friends are equal. What I could not stop from happening is this weak emotion that bonds you two together but then again, it is a powerful emotion enough to destroy anyone that comes through your path", Voldemort said.
"Why is he in this condition now?" she asked.
"Its time to feed from souls. As long as you two don't feed, this will happen to either one of you. Unless you want to do the impossible, suck the poison in him to your own", Voldemort said.
He had answered all her question but he did not leave. Instead, he faced her and traced her jaw line with her icy cold fingers. He lifted her chin up and gave her an overall look. She stiffened. She knew what this was going to lead to. He was so close. He had done it to her before and it would still be the same.
"So beautiful and yet so deadly", he murmured.
She stood shocked. The moment her eye color changed, he leaned in and kissed her lips. His icy lips were somewhat seducing her, tempting her to respond but she didn't. She felt nothing but hollowness. The touch of his lips on hers made her think of how she was so alone before she had met Tom. She had always been overcastted by the three people who made her life miserable. They had always excluded her from everything. The only reason why they want anything to do with her is when they needed something. For example, Potter only asked her to the ball after he was rejected by Cho. As for the other two, it had been a real pain having them around acting as if they did care when they obviously didn't. Her own brother had used her and Granger, being Miss know it all was just as worst.
She felt the dark orb inside her turning every single emotion she had into hatred. She was in the mood of destruction. She felt like she could destroy anyone that walked her path. Voldemort stopped kissing her and smirked at her. He left her alone to her thoughts. She looked at Draco, still unconscious. She knew that she had to do something. She heard what Voldemort said about doing the impossible. As much as she feels like killing, she didn't want to go there. She knew that once she starts, she'll never stop.
She climbed on top of Draco and went to his neck. Her instincts told her that it was where she should bite him. According to her Vampire studies in DADA, the vein that leads to the blood circulation should be just right on his neck. If it was right, she should be able to suck the poison in him out easily. She leaned her whole body towards him and reached out to him through her mind. She leaned her head down to the crook of his neck and bit him deep. She could taste the salty blood in her mouth as she bit into him. She could feel him moving, as if aroused by her actions. She sucked his blood until she felt some sort of a dark poison traveling through his veins into her mouth. The taste of bitterness hit her tongue and she started choking on it. She spitted it out but it had gotten to her as well. The taste of blood still lingered in her mouth but she felt darkness overtake her and she wasn't up to anything at all. She just fell, unconscious.
* *
A calm soothing energy traveled from her stomach up to her brain. She felt like she was in someone's arms. She felt weak but strong enough to wake up. Her eyes fluttered open and the first person she saw was Draco. Oh Merlin, he looked miserably pale. The sparkle in his grey silver eyes was gone as well. It was as though as he had not been sleeping for days. He was looking deeply into her eyes. He had noticed that she was awake. She reached out her hand to his cheek as he looked at her. He smiled before leaning down to give her a kiss on the forehead.
"You shouldn't have done the impossible. You had me worried", he murmured.
She saw the red mark on the crook of his neck and blushed. She had bitten him the other night but if someone were to notice it, they would have thought that it was a love bite. He smiled at her. She reached out again to touch his face as she leaned against his chest. As she traced her fingers on his face, she felt a very calm feeling from him. He held her hand to his check and kissed her palm. She smiled weakly as she remembered what she had done. He leaned down to her after that to claim her lips. She had felt such a wonder happening to her. This was it, this was what she wanted. She had wanted him all this time. The feeling of his lips on hers was ecstatic. What Tom did to her no longer mattered, it was Draco that she wanted and she wasn't going to let go of it.
The two was then disturbed by a knock on the door. Narcissa and Lucius appeared, looking as elegant as ever. They did not mention anything about the two being in each other's arms. They had just simply came in to talk to the both of them, as if as they had accepted the two for what they have become. Lucius gave Draco a knowing nod.
"I see that you have finally awaken, Virginia. Nice timing, may I add to that. Tonight will be a ball to celebrate both you and my son's initiation towards the Dark ranks. Tonight you will be meeting a lot of old friends of mine and some of your colleagues towards our plan for this year", Lucius said.
"How are you feeling dear?" Narcissa asked.
"Father, we're going to back to Hogwarts in three days time and when will the plan exactly take place?" Draco asked.
"As the both of you know, the Dark Lord intends to strike at the end of the year but your assignment is to get to Potter before that" Lucius answered.
The two nodded their heads. They looked at each other. Time had managed to build them up as dark followers. Ginny didn't regret what she had become at all. She was glad of it. Her family had meant something for her but greatness needs sacrifice and if was to sacrifice her family bond, let it be. She had come too far to give it up. After all, she had enjoyed her killings whether she wanted to admit it or not. The conflicts of good and evil no longer played inside her mind. Evil and darkness had already overthrown everything.
* * *
"Gin, are you ready/" Draco said.
He was outside the door, waiting for her to come out. The guests have already arrived and it was just moments before they were to head downstairs to meet the people. Draco was just waiting to escort her down. The door opened and he went in. He was going to start grumbling about how girls take their time fussing over their vain looks but he stopped as soon as he saw her. His jaw almost fell to the ground. He was shocked and rather surprised but in a good way.
She stood gazing at herself in the mirror. She had on a black velvet gown which was off the shoulders. The sleeves were tight and it clung to her arms just nicely. The middle section encircled her waist in a tugging fit. The bottom was nicely flowing down the ground. On her neck was a locket of a serpent which had diamonds as its scales and ruby as its eyes. He realized that it was his mother's and he must admit that it suited her well. Her hair was up in a nice messy style with two strands, lingering down her face. She looked down her feet, not even gazing into the mirror anymore.
He went to her and lifted her chin up. He gave her a bewildered smile. She seemed to be troubled to him. She never did tell him what had happened. Then again, she only woke up this morning after 2 days of unconsciousness. During those two days, he had been told by their Master to go feed off souls to bring her back. So, he did, for the sake of her well being. He didn't tell her because he thought that she would have known about it as well. He held her after that, in his arms, waiting for her to wake up. It had not been easy.
It was strange how it had all began. He never knew the girl for Merlin's sake and all of a sudden he's in love with her. He remembered insulting her at Flourish and Blotts during his second year and how he had embarrassed her with the Valentine gift that she had bought for Potter. Then, everything changed in this year when she had appeared to be more than what she seems to be. He had been attracted to her in a game of seduction. How she pulled him down, he would never know.
She was amazing to him. She was more than just a Weasley. She had fire, she had the beauty and she absolutely has the wits. He respected her for that. After finding out that she was also a ranked Death Eater and his partner in crime, he couldn't help but feel even more protective over her. Just the other day, he had admitted his weakness to her. He felt that what they shared were more than just a mild crush, it had gone deeper than that. Voldemort had warned him about it but he ignored his warnings. If love can be such a powerful emotion, he would rather not lose it. It may be a weakness but it is a weakness that will turn to strength.
"Draco? Are you alright?" her voice said.
Her voice snapped her out of it. He shook his head and smiled at her. He gave her a quick peck on the lips and offered her his arm.
"Don't worry. I'm just a bit astounded by your beauty tonight", he said.
He watched her blush. As he led her out, he sensed some sort of a discomfort around her. He patted her hand and gave her an assuring smile. Together, they went down the stairs as the butler, Martin, announced them to the crowd. The crowd was quiet as they walked down the staircase. He knew that she felt nervous. She had never really been to a ball where she became the center of attention. Eyes were looking at them, almost in disbelief. There were several gasps as what a Weasley would be doing at a Death Eater's Ball. Then again, those who attended the Initiation ceremony would have known the couple's rank. As they made their way to Lucius, many people bowed as though as they were royalty. It was a sign of respect to the Dark Prince and Princess.
The night went on quite well. Both Draco and Ginny were introduced to practically the whole force. Snape wasn't there out of surprise. It was obvious to the two that Snape was a betrayer but they weren't going to say anything because Dumbledore would have him guarded well. If they want to get to him, they'll have to kill Dumbledore first and deal with Snape later. Almost the whole Slytherin house students were here. Blaise, Pansy, Crabbe, Goyle, Flint and the rest were here. They were rather surprised to see Ginny at the ball. They were told that the Dark Prince was escorting the Princess but they didn't realize the Princess was indeed, Ginny.
Just then, out of nowhere, Ginny recognized a familiar face in the crowd. A tall guy who had jet black hair and dark blue eyes stood out amongst the crowd. He walked towards her and asked her to dance. Draco was a bit reluctant but he did allow Ginny to dance with the guy. Ginny was surprised that Kevyl McElion was here. She didn't expect him to be here. He led her to the dance floor where everyone else was dancing and bowed to her, she curtsied and they began their dance. It was silence for a few moments till Kevyl spoke.
"Je dois dire que je suis étonné de vous voir très ici. Que faites-vous ici?" he said. (I must say that I'm very surprised to see you here. What are you doing here?)
"I'm a Death Eater and I happen to be Draco Malfoy's girlfriend. Why else do you think I'm here?" she answered.
"Je ne sais pas. Vous pourriez être forcé A être ici pour autant que je sache. J'ai reçu pour dire cependant, comment c'est que quelqu'un aime que vous pouvez être un Mangeur de Mort?" he asked. (I do not know. You might be forced to be here for all I know. I have got to say though, how is it that someone like you can be a Death Eater?)
"It's a rather long story but the main point is that I am one. What are you doing here though?" she asked.
"Madame, I am what you are. Tonight, I'm here to meet the Dark Princess which I still do now know who she is. I heard that she has many great powers and mind you, I've been sent to kill her by my father", Kevyl said.
A pang of anger aroused in her. She kept on a straight face, not letting Kevyl find out who she was. She kept dancing with him.
"Why would your father want her dead? Who is your father?" she asked.
"My father is standing next to Lucius Malfoy right now. He feels that she is unworthy of the Master. He doesn't like the fact that a girl is running the show. All I know is that I'm just supposed to seduce her and kill her. Still, I need to know who she is. It makes it easier. Do you know who she is?" Kevyl asked.
"Actually, I do", she said, in an evil whisper.
With a simple movement, she kept close to him. Her hands went up to his neck as his went down to her waist. Slowly, her eyes changed color. Darkness has consumed her to the killing mode.
"Tell me then, who is she?" Kevyl said.
"She is me", she answered.
Kevyl was shocked. He stepped back away from Virginia. The crowd went silent as a dark black aura appeared around Virginia. Kevyl had his wand out and they were ready for a duel. Virginia was as calm as she could ever be. She sensed Kevyl's fear and she knew exactly what to do. He sent the Cruciatus curse on her but it turned into a simple gust of wind that just blew her hair. He used the curse again but it still didn't work. She waved an arm and his wand flew away before breaking into half. He charged her but she sent him flying to the ground. The crowd watched in excitement. She slowly walked towards him and held her hand out at him.
"C'était savoir agréable vous, Kevyl. Cependant, un betrayer, toujours sera un betrayer et betrayers sont seulement inacceptables", she said. (It was nice knowing you, Kevyl. However, a betrayer, will always be a betrayer and betrayers are just unacceptable.)
He knew what was coming. He wasn't afraid of death. She did it quick and easy for him. With a snap, his body turned into ashes and fell on the floor. She turned around to face Kevyl's father and held her hand out to him. She waved her hand and he was sent hitting the walls with an impact hard enough to break his skull. He was only unconscious. Her sense of killing made her very unsatisfied. She waved her hand again and the body started to burn with flames. Ashes fell down and were blown away by a slight wind. Everyone that was there, looked in fear. They did not dare move for they were afraid that they would be next. Draco stood, impressed as well. He thought that she hated killing but she killed 2 people in a breeze. He walked to her and stood just beside her.
"Let this be a lesson to all of you who are present today. Any attempts to kill me or the Dark Prince will result to this. If you think that I'm unworthy of the tasks that are assigned to me, I suggest that you get over it. As far as I'm concern, the Dark Lord chose me, not anyone else. Any more betrayers will end up to this", she said, making it loud and clear.
Everyone remained silent. Then, Lucius clapped and everyone else clapped. It was a sign of respect for her. Virginia had made it loud and clear that she doesn't want anyone to mess with her. Virginia seemed to have calmed down as soon as Draco held her by the waist. Draco nodded to the orchestra band and pulled her to dance with her. She smiled a little. She was surprised to find that the kill that she had taken just now had actually meant nothing. Slowly, killing people were no longer bringing her guilt and she liked that very much. The two continued dancing and twirling around the dance floor.
"So tell me Virginia, how did that feel?" Draco asked.
"It felt good. Killing isn't so bad, after all", she said.
The crowd was afraid of both Virginia and Draco. If Virginia was capable of killing without her wand, they didn't want to know what she was able to do with her wand. Some held utter respect for her while others started to fear her. Many murmurs of confusion were heard from around the crowd. Then suddenly, someone appeared running through the halls towards Lucius.
"My Lord! The manor has been surrounded by the armed forces of the Ministry of Magic!"

"Was he a part of your plan as well? Draco?" she asked.
"From the very beginning I had sense anger out of the boy and it was in his blood to be a Death Eater but I had foreseen that you two will come together. He has exactly what you have, emotion wise. He is as fiery as you are and he is as cold as you are. The hatred that you both share for Potter and his two friends are equal. What I could not stop from happening is this weak emotion that bonds you two together but then again, it is a powerful emotion enough to destroy anyone that comes through your path", Voldemort said.
"Why is he in this condition now?" she asked.
"Its time to feed from souls. As long as you two don't feed, this will happen to either one of you. Unless you want to do the impossible, suck the poison in him to your own", Voldemort said.
He had answered all her question but he did not leave. Instead, he faced her and traced her jaw line with her icy cold fingers. He lifted her chin up and gave her an overall look. She stiffened. She knew what this was going to lead to. He was so close. He had done it to her before and it would still be the same.
"So beautiful and yet so deadly", he murmured.
She stood shocked. The moment her eye color changed, he leaned in and kissed her lips. His icy lips were somewhat seducing her, tempting her to respond but she didn't. She felt nothing but hollowness. The touch of his lips on hers made her think of how she was so alone before she had met Tom. She had always been overcastted by the three people who made her life miserable. They had always excluded her from everything. The only reason why they want anything to do with her is when they needed something. For example, Potter only asked her to the ball after he was rejected by Cho. As for the other two, it had been a real pain having them around acting as if they did care when they obviously didn't. Her own brother had used her and Granger, being Miss know it all was just as worst.
She felt the dark orb inside her turning every single emotion she had into hatred. She was in the mood of destruction. She felt like she could destroy anyone that walked her path. Voldemort stopped kissing her and smirked at her. He left her alone to her thoughts. She looked at Draco, still unconscious. She knew that she had to do something. She heard what Voldemort said about doing the impossible. As much as she feels like killing, she didn't want to go there. She knew that once she starts, she'll never stop.
She climbed on top of Draco and went to his neck. Her instincts told her that it was where she should bite him. According to her Vampire studies in DADA, the vein that leads to the blood circulation should be just right on his neck. If it was right, she should be able to suck the poison in him out easily. She leaned her whole body towards him and reached out to him through her mind. She leaned her head down to the crook of his neck and bit him deep. She could taste the salty blood in her mouth as she bit into him. She could feel him moving, as if aroused by her actions. She sucked his blood until she felt some sort of a dark poison traveling through his veins into her mouth. The taste of bitterness hit her tongue and she started choking on it. She spitted it out but it had gotten to her as well. The taste of blood still lingered in her mouth but she felt darkness overtake her and she wasn't up to anything at all. She just fell, unconscious.

A calm soothing energy traveled from her stomach up to her brain. She felt like she was in someone's arms. She felt weak but strong enough to wake up. Her eyes fluttered open and the first person she saw was Draco. Oh Merlin, he looked miserably pale. The sparkle in his grey silver eyes was gone as well. It was as though as he had not been sleeping for days. He was looking deeply into her eyes. He had noticed that she was awake. She reached out her hand to his cheek as he looked at her. He smiled before leaning down to give her a kiss on the forehead.
"You shouldn't have done the impossible. You had me worried", he murmured.
She saw the red mark on the crook of his neck and blushed. She had bitten him the other night but if someone were to notice it, they would have thought that it was a love bite. He smiled at her. She reached out again to touch his face as she leaned against his chest. As she traced her fingers on his face, she felt a very calm feeling from him. He held her hand to his check and kissed her palm. She smiled weakly as she remembered what she had done. He leaned down to her after that to claim her lips. She had felt such a wonder happening to her. This was it, this was what she wanted. She had wanted him all this time. The feeling of his lips on hers was ecstatic. What Tom did to her no longer mattered, it was Draco that she wanted and she wasn't going to let go of it.
The two was then disturbed by a knock on the door. Narcissa and Lucius appeared, looking as elegant as ever. They did not mention anything about the two being in each other's arms. They had just simply came in to talk to the both of them, as if as they had accepted the two for what they have become. Lucius gave Draco a knowing nod.
"I see that you have finally awaken, Virginia. Nice timing, may I add to that. Tonight will be a ball to celebrate both you and my son's initiation towards the Dark ranks. Tonight you will be meeting a lot of old friends of mine and some of your colleagues towards our plan for this year", Lucius said.
"How are you feeling dear?" Narcissa asked.
"Father, we're going to back to Hogwarts in three days time and when will the plan exactly take place?" Draco asked.
"As the both of you know, the Dark Lord intends to strike at the end of the year but your assignment is to get to Potter before that" Lucius answered.
The two nodded their heads. They looked at each other. Time had managed to build them up as dark followers. Ginny didn't regret what she had become at all. She was glad of it. Her family had meant something for her but greatness needs sacrifice and if was to sacrifice her family bond, let it be. She had come too far to give it up. After all, she had enjoyed her killings whether she wanted to admit it or not. The conflicts of good and evil no longer played inside her mind. Evil and darkness had already overthrown everything.

"Gin, are you ready/" Draco said.
He was outside the door, waiting for her to come out. The guests have already arrived and it was just moments before they were to head downstairs to meet the people. Draco was just waiting to escort her down. The door opened and he went in. He was going to start grumbling about how girls take their time fussing over their vain looks but he stopped as soon as he saw her. His jaw almost fell to the ground. He was shocked and rather surprised but in a good way.
She stood gazing at herself in the mirror. She had on a black velvet gown which was off the shoulders. The sleeves were tight and it clung to her arms just nicely. The middle section encircled her waist in a tugging fit. The bottom was nicely flowing down the ground. On her neck was a locket of a serpent which had diamonds as its scales and ruby as its eyes. He realized that it was his mother's and he must admit that it suited her well. Her hair was up in a nice messy style with two strands, lingering down her face. She looked down her feet, not even gazing into the mirror anymore.
He went to her and lifted her chin up. He gave her a bewildered smile. She seemed to be troubled to him. She never did tell him what had happened. Then again, she only woke up this morning after 2 days of unconsciousness. During those two days, he had been told by their Master to go feed off souls to bring her back. So, he did, for the sake of her well being. He didn't tell her because he thought that she would have known about it as well. He held her after that, in his arms, waiting for her to wake up. It had not been easy.
It was strange how it had all began. He never knew the girl for Merlin's sake and all of a sudden he's in love with her. He remembered insulting her at Flourish and Blotts during his second year and how he had embarrassed her with the Valentine gift that she had bought for Potter. Then, everything changed in this year when she had appeared to be more than what she seems to be. He had been attracted to her in a game of seduction. How she pulled him down, he would never know.
She was amazing to him. She was more than just a Weasley. She had fire, she had the beauty and she absolutely has the wits. He respected her for that. After finding out that she was also a ranked Death Eater and his partner in crime, he couldn't help but feel even more protective over her. Just the other day, he had admitted his weakness to her. He felt that what they shared were more than just a mild crush, it had gone deeper than that. Voldemort had warned him about it but he ignored his warnings. If love can be such a powerful emotion, he would rather not lose it. It may be a weakness but it is a weakness that will turn to strength.
"Draco? Are you alright?" her voice said.
Her voice snapped her out of it. He shook his head and smiled at her. He gave her a quick peck on the lips and offered her his arm.
"Don't worry. I'm just a bit astounded by your beauty tonight", he said.
He watched her blush. As he led her out, he sensed some sort of a discomfort around her. He patted her hand and gave her an assuring smile. Together, they went down the stairs as the butler, Martin, announced them to the crowd. The crowd was quiet as they walked down the staircase. He knew that she felt nervous. She had never really been to a ball where she became the center of attention. Eyes were looking at them, almost in disbelief. There were several gasps as what a Weasley would be doing at a Death Eater's Ball. Then again, those who attended the Initiation ceremony would have known the couple's rank. As they made their way to Lucius, many people bowed as though as they were royalty. It was a sign of respect to the Dark Prince and Princess.
The night went on quite well. Both Draco and Ginny were introduced to practically the whole force. Snape wasn't there out of surprise. It was obvious to the two that Snape was a betrayer but they weren't going to say anything because Dumbledore would have him guarded well. If they want to get to him, they'll have to kill Dumbledore first and deal with Snape later. Almost the whole Slytherin house students were here. Blaise, Pansy, Crabbe, Goyle, Flint and the rest were here. They were rather surprised to see Ginny at the ball. They were told that the Dark Prince was escorting the Princess but they didn't realize the Princess was indeed, Ginny.
Just then, out of nowhere, Ginny recognized a familiar face in the crowd. A tall guy who had jet black hair and dark blue eyes stood out amongst the crowd. He walked towards her and asked her to dance. Draco was a bit reluctant but he did allow Ginny to dance with the guy. Ginny was surprised that Kevyl McElion was here. She didn't expect him to be here. He led her to the dance floor where everyone else was dancing and bowed to her, she curtsied and they began their dance. It was silence for a few moments till Kevyl spoke.
"Je dois dire que je suis étonné de vous voir très ici. Que faites-vous ici?" he said. (I must say that I'm very surprised to see you here. What are you doing here?)
"I'm a Death Eater and I happen to be Draco Malfoy's girlfriend. Why else do you think I'm here?" she answered.
"Je ne sais pas. Vous pourriez être forcé A être ici pour autant que je sache. J'ai reçu pour dire cependant, comment c'est que quelqu'un aime que vous pouvez être un Mangeur de Mort?" he asked. (I do not know. You might be forced to be here for all I know. I have got to say though, how is it that someone like you can be a Death Eater?)
"It's a rather long story but the main point is that I am one. What are you doing here though?" she asked.
"Madame, I am what you are. Tonight, I'm here to meet the Dark Princess which I still do now know who she is. I heard that she has many great powers and mind you, I've been sent to kill her by my father", Kevyl said.
A pang of anger aroused in her. She kept on a straight face, not letting Kevyl find out who she was. She kept dancing with him.
"Why would your father want her dead? Who is your father?" she asked.
"My father is standing next to Lucius Malfoy right now. He feels that she is unworthy of the Master. He doesn't like the fact that a girl is running the show. All I know is that I'm just supposed to seduce her and kill her. Still, I need to know who she is. It makes it easier. Do you know who she is?" Kevyl asked.
"Actually, I do", she said, in an evil whisper.
With a simple movement, she kept close to him. Her hands went up to his neck as his went down to her waist. Slowly, her eyes changed color. Darkness has consumed her to the killing mode.
"Tell me then, who is she?" Kevyl said.
"She is me", she answered.
Kevyl was shocked. He stepped back away from Virginia. The crowd went silent as a dark black aura appeared around Virginia. Kevyl had his wand out and they were ready for a duel. Virginia was as calm as she could ever be. She sensed Kevyl's fear and she knew exactly what to do. He sent the Cruciatus curse on her but it turned into a simple gust of wind that just blew her hair. He used the curse again but it still didn't work. She waved an arm and his wand flew away before breaking into half. He charged her but she sent him flying to the ground. The crowd watched in excitement. She slowly walked towards him and held her hand out at him.
"C'était savoir agréable vous, Kevyl. Cependant, un betrayer, toujours sera un betrayer et betrayers sont seulement inacceptables", she said. (It was nice knowing you, Kevyl. However, a betrayer, will always be a betrayer and betrayers are just unacceptable.)
He knew what was coming. He wasn't afraid of death. She did it quick and easy for him. With a snap, his body turned into ashes and fell on the floor. She turned around to face Kevyl's father and held her hand out to him. She waved her hand and he was sent hitting the walls with an impact hard enough to break his skull. He was only unconscious. Her sense of killing made her very unsatisfied. She waved her hand again and the body started to burn with flames. Ashes fell down and were blown away by a slight wind. Everyone that was there, looked in fear. They did not dare move for they were afraid that they would be next. Draco stood, impressed as well. He thought that she hated killing but she killed 2 people in a breeze. He walked to her and stood just beside her.
"Let this be a lesson to all of you who are present today. Any attempts to kill me or the Dark Prince will result to this. If you think that I'm unworthy of the tasks that are assigned to me, I suggest that you get over it. As far as I'm concern, the Dark Lord chose me, not anyone else. Any more betrayers will end up to this", she said, making it loud and clear.
Everyone remained silent. Then, Lucius clapped and everyone else clapped. It was a sign of respect for her. Virginia had made it loud and clear that she doesn't want anyone to mess with her. Virginia seemed to have calmed down as soon as Draco held her by the waist. Draco nodded to the orchestra band and pulled her to dance with her. She smiled a little. She was surprised to find that the kill that she had taken just now had actually meant nothing. Slowly, killing people were no longer bringing her guilt and she liked that very much. The two continued dancing and twirling around the dance floor.
"So tell me Virginia, how did that feel?" Draco asked.
"It felt good. Killing isn't so bad, after all", she said.
The crowd was afraid of both Virginia and Draco. If Virginia was capable of killing without her wand, they didn't want to know what she was able to do with her wand. Some held utter respect for her while others started to fear her. Many murmurs of confusion were heard from around the crowd. Then suddenly, someone appeared running through the halls towards Lucius.
"My Lord! The manor has been surrounded by the armed forces of the Ministry of Magic!"
