The Tales of Hogwarts

Draco Malfoy IV

"Crab ! Goyle ! Get over here !" Draco yelled across the silent common room. It was late and Draco knew it was late but he didn't care, he wanted his project to be completed before Dumbledore's return.

"What is it boss ?" Goyle asked as he reached Draco. Draco was now sat over a large slimy looking cauldron staring down at the pictures that flicked in the murky water. He watched as the image of Ginny Weasly crept slowly into Snape's office. Ginny stopped and looked around before picking up the plaque and then she was gone.

"Is it ready yet ?" Malfoy questioned without even turning round to look at his sidekicks.

"Not quite yet Draco. Another three ingredients." Crab said in a mutter.

"Which are ?" Malfoy asked in a hiss, he was becoming more like his farther everyday.

"Umm.. Basilisk venom, Giants blood and.." Crab paused. "Some of the victims hair."

"Very well," Draco said in a sneer. And at that he was on his feet. "I'll be back in a moment."

The moon light hit Malfoy hard in the face as he walked out of the double doors. What with all his hard work and him being banned from Quiditch he hadn't left the castle in quite sometime. His mother certainly didn't want him over for the holidays. Draco made his way slowly toward the edge of the forbidden forest. He had no fear of it now. Death would be better than the hell he was living in now.

Slowly he walked through the trees and suddenly he was in a clearing. There were no trees for a good square mile and Draco smiled as he saw the brownish lump in the centre of the deserted area.

"Grawp !" He yelled at the top of his lungs and slowly the mound stood up.

"DRAKEY !" The lump yelled, a smile from ear to ear. "YOU WANT BLOOD ?"

"Of course," Malfoy said and he watched the giant grab the large sharp blade and stick it in his face without even flinching. "Thank you Grawp."
