Chapter 6: The Incident- Part two
"Well…Krum was walking towards the dungeon, and I had no choice but to follow…" she stopped crying but was still sniffing, "He walked into a room, one which I never knew existed. He walked to a cauldron which was filled with a purplish liquid, that was boiling over the black misty fire…I thought this was odd, but I did nothing as I thought it was you…" Hermione was about to uncover a secret she had kept from that night on…what she was about to say even Harry and Ron didn't know.
Hermione, hold yourself together! She thought to herself, cant believe I'm risking my life again for his sake!!!
"Ok, well few minutes later…Krum told me to come closer, I did, he pulled my hand, I tried to let go, but couldn't. He then did this…" Hermione pulled up her right sleeve of her top, and revealed a mark, the one and only Dark Mark, "It was so painful, but he wouldn't let me go, I tried to scream but nothing came out as I was put under a silencing charm," She began to cry once more. Draco stood there, dumfounded. Hermione has the dark mark on her pale skin.
Why? He thought, then remembered, Oh yea, I needed a "future Queen" but why her? I mean I would think father would have picked Pansy! He shuddered at the thought.
"Look Draco! Just look at my arm!" Hermione sobbed, "Why the fuck do I have this on my arm!? Draco! Answer me!!!" she was screaming, but was crying at the same time, all the while, pointing at the mark.
"Hermione calm down," Ron comforted, "I'm sure we can find a way to get rid of it, it'll be ok," Loud sobs were escaping Hermione's mouth.
"Look Weasley, you cannot, take the mark of once it has been fully marked onto the skin!" Draco explained, he tuned and looked at a crying Hermione, "I'm sorry Granger, but there is no spell, potion or any kind of cover up you can use, until your task is completed,"
"And – and, what is that exactly!?" she said rather angrily.
"Well until you're married to the King of course…" Draco said with awkwardness in his voice.
"And who might that be!? Seeing as you know everything to do with the dark arts!" Hermione asked rather confused, "Look explain everything to me! I'm very confused about this matter, and I count tell Ron or Harry, considering that they would go crazy if they knew!"
"Alright alright! You see, I was suppose to become a death eater tonight, my ceremony was suppose to take place here as well, I need a future queen who would stay with me until the day comes in which I am Dark lord!" said Draco with a drawl, a gasp escaped from Hermione's and Ron's mouths, "just so you know, I will never, and I mean NEVER become a death eater, or a follower!"
"But what about Hermione Malfoy?!" Ron asked through clenched teeth.
"Well she will probably die in a few days!" he said planting a smirk on his face which was under cascaded under the moonlight.
"What do you mean she will die!?!?!?" Ron was angry…very angry!
Oh my god…I'm going to die? Hermione thought, fighting back the on-going tears I don't want to die, why did this have to happen to me? I did nothing to deserve death…
"Weasley you are thick aren't you!? I said she will die you know what I mean right!? We'll all be going to her funeral in, say 4 days!" Draco answered rather casually.
"STOP IT! Isn't there anyway that I can stay alive, and kill Krum in the process?!" She said, malice in her voice.
"Well, Krum will be killed by my father for failing, but nope, no way for you could stay alive. Well, the thing is my dear Hermione, you need me to survive, but as if I'm going to wander around with a mud-"
"Malfoy!" Ron interrupted, "Does it really matter what kind of blood she has?" Draco was about to answer but Ron spoke first, "You know, she has put up with all your name calling, curses, hexes, I mean, she even risked her own life last year, or don't you remember that? I mean least you could do is tell us what can be done,"
"Oh Ron give it up, he doesn't care about me, after all I am just a mudblood!" She sobbed.
By now Draco felt…felt…guilty. He wasn't sure on what to do, so he thought of what would be best for her, for the first time in his life, he thought of someone else rather than himself.
"Alright! Look Granger, I am doing this for my own good, not yours! The thing is, Voldermort can't kill you if he still wants me. You are suppose to be my future Queen, that is if I want to be a Dark Lord… which I don't!" Draco added, "This is the plan, screw whatever plan you had, but this is it," He looked at Ron, "And Weasley you better keep your mouth shut, 'cause I know what will happen to you if you don't!"
"Malfoy, what are you going to do?" Ron asked, sounding rather confused. Hermione had stooped crying and looked up, giving Draco her 100% attention.
"Well Draco what do you have in mind?" asked Hermione.
"Firstly, don't call me Draco, only people I actually care about call me Draco!" he spat out, "Look like I said before, they can't kill you if they still want me! So what I'm saying is, well…"Draco got tongued twisted, he was nervous, he wasn't sure how they would act.
"Wait…wait a sec! You're not serious are you Malfoy?! What are you getting at, I'm not quite sure on my query…" Hermione was certain, but she didn't want to say something that she would regret.
