I wanted to take this time to thank everyone for their lovely reviews. I hope this story can live up to your expectations.

Also I wanted to make a correction. I made a mistake in calling the mall two different names. The name is Midnight Mall, sorry about that. Which reminds me, I need a beta reader so if anyone is interested please e-mail.

I don't own Harry Potter or any character within. So I'm not adding any new important characters. Once again this is a H/D fic, and soon I'm going to be adding some really slashy moments, thought I'd let you know.

Chapter 3

Harry's POV (Someone let me know if I should continue this story this way, go back to a normal view, or alternate POVs. I'm aiming for whatever sounds better.)

I looked at the big vacant building in front of me. This is 'Midnight Mall'. The wonderful place that Malfoy was so excited to show me. It looked like an old abandoned warehouse to me. I could not reasonably understand what was so special about the place it was kind of eerie if you asked me. The kind of place you see in movies where the bad guys are all hiding out. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if Voldermort was inside the very building itself. It was nothing more than an old abandoned factory, empty parking lot, busted windows and everything. Great..

"You're such a pessimist. Harry. You shouldn't always judge a book by its cover." Malfoy smiled at me.

I sighed. "You know Malfoy, you really need to stop reading my thoughts that's becoming really, really annoying." Malfoy just gave a smirk that just screamed, 'yeah, okay, sure pal. Whatever you say.'

I followed the dumb blond to an old rusted metal door. The door had a bent and barely legible sign that read 'employees only'. I couldn't help but roll my eyes as Malfoy walked up to the door and knocked loudly three times. After a few seconds Malfoy knocked again but this time a series of combinations, reminding me briefly of the first time I went to Diagon Alley from the Leaky Cauldron with Hagrid.

The door opened and there stood a tall guy with dark brown hair and golden skin. "What's up dudes?"

"Harry, this is Aaron, he's American. Aaron this is my life's line, Harry." Malfoy looked at me and grinned widely.

Bloody Wanker. I thought to myself only to hear the two 'dudes' laughing at me.

"New blood, huh?" Aaron laughed.

"Yeah just crossed last night. Isn't he beautiful?" Malfoy said to the other bloke causing my cheeks to become red with embarrassment.

"Looks better than you that's for sure." Aaron laughed and for the first time that night I joined in on the fun. "Better make sure he learns to block his thoughts before he gets in trouble." Aaron said finally stepping aside to let us pass.

"Yeah I know." Malfoy grabbed my hand and lead me through.

We walked into a darkened tunnel that had dim lights on each side every few steps apart. Once we far enough from Aaron I yanked my hand from Malfoy's grip and stopped.

"What the hell was that all about?" I asked angrily.

"What. Oh Aaron is the gatekeeper. Not original I know. But Aaron is very good at hypnosis so if any muggles or. Well if anyone is not a vampire who just so happened to be wondering through he changes their minds for them and they wonder off. Sort of like the type of thing wizards do except it's not a spell."

"That's not what I'm talking about, Malfoy. What's all this hand holding and life line and."

"It's Life's line. It's too hard to explain so come on." Malfoy made a grab for my hand and I instantly pulled away. He sighed. "Harry, come on, I can tell you all this stuff later but let's go into the mall."

Just then two girls walked passed us giggling. Malfoy stepped away as the girls passed and I couldn't help looking at them just thinking that they were vampires. Once again the realization that I was one of these creatures was upon me. It hit me like a brick wall every time I stopped to think about it. I was a creature of the night. We're not talking about being that can do a few magic tricks this time. I was a living dead thingy, bullocks!

"Harry." Malfoy's voice was soft this time, as if he knew what I was thinking. Well he probably did. "Harry, take my hand, please? The tunnel into the mall becomes a lot harder then this and I don't want you to get lost. When your vampire senses kick in you'll be able to lead yourself into the mall but."

"Fine, let's go." I did not want to discuss it any more. I was done with this conversation. Malfoy keeps telling me everything and nothing at the same time. I just took his hand silently and let myself be lead into this. tunnel.

As we walked deeper into the tunnel the lights started to get few and far between. Soon there was no light at all and although it was pitch black and dark I could see everything perfectly as if the lights were on. I looked at the tunnel, which quickly became a labyrinth of twist and turns and I'm sure there were a couple dead ends but Dra. Malfoy knew exactly where to go. The walls even began to close in so I had to walk behind Malfoy while being pulled by my hand. Just as I thought the walls could get no smaller a door opened to show a blinding white light.

Malfoy and I stepped through the door and my eyes quickly adjusted to the light. My shock must have shown in my face because Malfoy leaned into my ear and whispered. "Welcome to Midnight Mall, Harry."

A/N let me know what you think. It's a short one I know.
