Prologue

"Harry! You ponce! Get over here! And stay low." hissed the said boy's Potions Professor. Harry slid over to him, and rolled his eyes, he crouched low behind the wall with Severus Snape, the wind fluttering through both men's black, hooded robes.

"One, don't call me a ponce, Snape. Two, stay here, I'll get him out, I told you I would, so don't fret." Harry started to creep forward, throwing his Invisibility Cloak around himself, Snape managed to snag the boy's wrist. Harry looked back at him.

"Be careful Harry, most of them are in there; you can't go getting yourself killed now. You're needed," Snape said.

"I got you Professor." Harry said, and then threw the hood of his Invisibility Cloak over his head, vanishing into nothingness.

"You're needed...in more ways than you know, kid, come back to us alive." Snape muttered, sinking into shadows, waiting.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Harry had gotten in to the Riddle House, and had searched the cells, until he found his target. He saw Lucius Malfoy open the door, and Harry flew in, without the blonde man even knowing it. Harry crouched in a corner, wand ready. His target was Draco Malfoy. He had been forcefully abducted from school by his father and was going to be forced to have the Dark Mark implanted on his forearm. Harry was the only one powerful enough to save his enemy.

Lucius strode in, the door closing and locking behind him. Harry looked at him, baffled, as Lucius cast a silencing charm on the room. Harry then paled to chalk white when realization hit. Harry narrowed his almost neon green eyes, and crept forward. Lucius strode to a high backed chair, facing the fire and yanked the boy from his seat roughly by the hair. Harry suppressed a growl, and slid closer.

Draco was glaring with his silver eyes at his father, who was a few inches taller than the boy's own stature. The blonde boy yanked himself away from his father when he felt Lucius' grip loosen slightly, backing away from his cold gray gaze. He stopped right beside Harry; the ebony-haired boy had to let Draco know he was there. So very gently, Harry placed his hand on Draco's, and the blonde boy's hand gripped his tightly before letting go and backing up against the wall, as his father advanced. Harry scrambled out of the way, and fought the urge to throttle Lucius when he ripped the clothes from Draco, leaving the boy bare before him. Friend or not, Lucius was not going to touch Draco. After Lucius removed his cloak, and placed his wand on top of his things, Harry discreetly snatched the wand.

Lucius advanced and started to grab Draco, who yanked away in disgust. Harry saw red, when Lucius caught Draco, and the blonde boy started to struggle. His silver eyes pleaded with someone, anyone, to stop his father. Harry growled and went to the window, making sure he could jump through the glass. He then went back to Draco and Lucius, pulling on the black hood beneath his Invisibility Cloak. Harry removed the Invisibility cloak and placed it in a secured robe pocket on the inside. Then twirling both wands, he stepped behind Lucius and pointed both at him.

"I'd step away from him if I were you, Malfoy." Harry's voice was dark, and dripping with venom.

Draco's eyes widened, when he realized who it was, he had thought it to be Snape. Lucius froze, and straightened. As soon as Lucius turned his back, Draco, still rooted against the wall in resistance, ran to Harry. He was instantly pushed behind the ebony-haired wizard.

"Who are you?" asked Lucius, his eyes narrowed.

"Your worst nightmare, Malfoy." hissed Harry.

"Ha! My worst nightmare isn't in this room; my greatest fuck toy maybe, but not my worst nightmare," sneered Lucius. That did it.

"Crucio!" the word was out of Harry's mouth before he could think.

Draco pressed into him, feeling secure, and safe around the ebony-haired boy. Not because he just used an Unforgivable Curse on his behalf, but the light he radiated. As Draco watched his father writhe in pain, he felt no anger towards the one doing it. He felt no sympathy, no nothing. When he heard a snap, Draco reverted from his thoughts. In his hand, was Lucius' wand, in pieces. Lucius stood shakily. The three suddenly looked toward the door as it burst open and, to Harry and Draco's horror, Voldemort himself strode in.

Harry inched towards the window, stuffing a cloak into Draco's arms, which the blonde boy dressed in hurriedly.

"Draco, when I tell you to, jump out the window, and get to the South Wall where your friend will be waiting for you, run and don't look back Draco. I mean it." Harry whispered softly, Draco nodded, though he still clutched Harry's robes.

They had their backs to the window, and Draco positioned himself, to jump backwards out the window, when given the signal.

"Well, well, well, Harry Potter has come to save the Malfoy boy, has he? How sweet, but neither of you will leave this house alive," Voldemort sneered. He withdrew his wand, and stared at them.

"We are going to leave here, and you will not. You are through with your insolent acts of Darkness. I am never going to let you hurt another person dear to me! Got it?" Harry growled.

Voldemort laughed a harsh evil sound. Then the air tensed around them. One move and it would snap. Suddenly it burst, everywhere around the house, explosions were taking place. Floor by floor, a blue wave, would reach out, killing all life with in the floor, before vanishing. On the first blast, they acted.

"Now!" shouted Harry, as he and Voldemort lunged at one another, Draco was out the window, running faster than the wind as he touched the ground.

Draco then made a mistake, he had turned around and stopped all though almost to his destination. He had heard Harry scream, a horrible gut wrenching sound that filled Draco with such a fear that he froze. He was snapped back into action when another explosion took place. He hopped down over the South wall to meet face to face with none other than Severus Snape.

"We need to move, there is a Blue Rinse set around the perimeter of the grounds as well- Draco? Where's Harry?" asked Snape, going deathly still.

"Still....inside..." Draco gasped out between heaves for air.

He saw the color drain from Snape's face, he saw the onyx eyes that used to be so cold, go wide with complete and utter fear, horror and shock. After three more explosions, the world around them became dead quiet, not a sound to be heard. Snape and Draco looked back at the Riddle house, its windows were dark and empty, and nothing moved or made a sound. Snape choked down a sob, and looked away.

But Draco noticed something. An eerie glowing figure, the moonlight making the mist around it glow as it staggered towards them, its robes fluttering in rags in the wind. Snape looked up and was at the side of the figure in seconds, he tossed it over his shoulder, and raced towards Draco. Snape shouted for Draco to start running and he did. He knew that Harry had given his life and as he Disapparated, he could follow nothing, it was all a blur, until finally the darkness claimed him.
