AUTHORS NOTE: Last chapter

Harry waited outside. Lucious Malfoy Office. He hated the man but did his best to stay cordial. He missed Ron and Hermione. He hadent talked to Hermione since the incident over a year ago. He still ran into her on occasion although they both avoided each other. He knew that she had had another baby. Well Voldemort had told him, telling him that Hermione was no longer needed and that she was free to leave as promised.

Harry didn't have the heart to tell her. He thought she was happy with Malfoy if that was possible and with a new baby and 2 other toddlers it didn't fair to make her leave.

He was jealous of Malfoy. Malfoy was just as bad as him and he still got Hermione he on the other Hand had only gotten her hatred.

They both were there when they said goodbye to Ron, Ginny, Pavarti, and Colin Creevy. They both hugged them all and wished them good luck. Harry was still in secret contact with Ron who had located him self in Ireland with Ginny. For their own safety they had taken jobs as muggles. Ron didn't understand that Harry was in line with Voldemort. He only knew that he struck some deal with him.

He heard a dead beat walk and saw a defeated looking Hermione. She hesitated when she saw him but then countiued to walk on.

"Bad day?" he didn't look up at her as he asked. She hesitated not sure whether or not to ansower him.

"I have had worse."

"I see. But what happened?"

"I only just found out that Malfoy is going to try and kill me but besides that everything is perfect." She said sarcastically.

"Are you bloody serious? He cant do this. I made sure this wouldn't happen" He rolled his fingers through his hair.

"I cant take care of myself, If there is one thing I have learned over the last two years its that." She replied stiffly. She started to head back to her room.

"Hermione wait." She paused. He continued. "Why don't you stay in my room for awhile there is no way Malfoy will go into it, not to mention I have put many protection charms on it.

"You don't have to." He cut her off

"Hermione I still have feelings for you. I know you must hate me still but understand that all my actions have been for you and Ron. I would never do anything intentionally hurt and you know that" He paused waiting for her to reply. "You do know that right?"

She looked at him "I know Harry." He hugged her.

"Come quickly." He quickly showed her his room. It was rustic room. With green and silver drapes hanging from the windows and the bed. There was Red couch and red carpet and golden engravings in the room.

"Its nice." She told him.

"A little bit to slytherin in my opinion but it works."

"I guess I am so use too those colors for it to matter anymore." She hesitated. "Malfoy would not let me put anything up that reminded him of the Gryffindor colors."

"It seems like something he would do." He continued "Look Hermione I have a meeting with Lucious Malfoy. I am going to send a letter to Ron telling him that you will be joining him very soon." She smiled at him but then she remembered what about the twins and Neaveh. "What about my children"

"I am not sure I don't think Malfoy would kill his own kids." Harry said slowly

"I would not past it him." She muttered "Never put anything past a Malfoy." She continued "Harry this is a little off the subject but you know what happen to my parents."

"As far as I know they are perfectly well. Malfoy nor I would let anyone hurt them." She felt relieved.

"Do they know what happened to me?"

"I sent a letter to your mother, telling her a lot of the stuff. I wasn't sure if she knew anything. So I just made sure she knew you were safe." He started to turn his back

"Thank you so much Harry." He smiled at her and left.

***

Harry came back several hours later.

"Voldemort gave Draco permission to kill you."

"But didn't he promise you." Hermione asked

"Yes but he said that it would show weakness to a prominent family. Hermione you got to leave some time in the next two days." She nodded.

"Come away with me Harry." Hermione whispered to him.

"If I could I would but then we would be only putting are selves in more danger."

"We could do it Harry. Just me and you. No Malfoy, No Voldemort." She needed to be loved. Draco no longer loved her. Harry still did and she knew that. She knew she was trying to use him.

"Hermione if I went with you they would have everyone looking for us. I could not live with the fact that I was putting you in more danger than you actually were in." He replied shakily.

"I would risk it." She replied shakily. I have lost everything don't turn your back on me.

"I wouldn't." He continued "Both Malfoys are looking for you and soon everyone will be. There is in escape door in the closet. I want you to go down it as fast as possible. It will lead you down to Hogsmede.

"What about my children?"

"There will be no way of getting Rhydon he is heavily guarded by dementers. Neaveh is in your room and I think there will be no way of getting to that. But I may be able to get Scarlet. Her room isn't to far away from here and no one will notice. Just wait here. I will try to get her; and take whatever you need. There are some gallons in that left drawer. Ron will be in Dublin Ireland I want you to get there as soon as possible ok?"

"Harry I am sorry I haven't talked to you in the last year. I know all your intensions were good."

"It's ok Hermione. I understand." He left quickly. She looked around his room and found a big cloak, she took about 50 gallons. That would be enough to get her to Ireland and to find Ron. She would pay Harry back when the time came.

Suddenly she heard voices coming.

"Draco you had nothing to do with the girl's escape did you?" she heard the familiar voice of Lucious Malfoy

"I would not have had time, but Potter might have had something to do with it." Draco added

"Asshole" Hermione thought.

"Don't be stupid Draco. They have not been on speaking terms for over a year." Lucious added.

" I guess" there voices were drowned out. Hermione nerves were reaching a breaking point. What if Harry didn't return? But that fear was hushed away when she saw him carrying Scarlet. No longer afraid of holding her.

"There is a silencing charm on her" that will last for an hour or two. She noticed that he was leaning in on her and without a second thought they both kissed each other hard. This time there was no interrupting Grandmother, this time there was no Draco to love. There was only Harry. And suddenly she felt like she was in her 17 year old dream. But as the kiss broke off, her reality was woken up. A once enemy, then lover, then enemy child now was held tightly to her body.

"Hermione, Go now!" He screamed.

"I love you Harry Potter. I will always love you."

She walked in a fast pace down the escape door. It was a dark pathway that then lead to a dark, steep, stairwell. It was difficult to hold Scarlet and walk down it without tripping. Then there was a tunnel. That eventually led to a cave, that viewed right over Hogsmede.

It was still Dark out and all Hermione could see were the lights. "We are free from that nightmare Scarlet" At this point the silencing charm had worn off and Scarlet let out of soft babyish giggle.

And they were finally free.

***

Hermione traveled off the path in Hogsmede doing her best not to be seen. She eventually wondered into a muggle town in the middle Newburry. She spent the rest of the day sleeping and feeding Scarlet.

At night she traveled. Eventually after two days of wondering, she was home.

She knocked on the door of the house she had grown up in. She knew that she could spend little time there. Her mother was on the verge of tears when she saw her. After she settled in she told her mother the whole story. Starting on the night when Ron and Harry disappeared, and worked her way up to getting here.

After many tears and admirations of the small baby. Hermione explained to her that they were in great Danger. They packed in hurried manner and within two days all three of them left to Ireland, they moved in with Ron and Ginny. In a small house that border near Dublin.

"It was you!" Voldemort screamed.

"What do you mean? Harry asked. Knowing exactly what his grandfather meant.

"Your just lucky. I am covering this all up." The Dark Lord said angrily.

"You promised that she would live and she did. I don't think you will have any problems covering it all up." Harry told him slyly.

"I also promised Lucious that she would be killed."

"That's your problem."

"Don't you talk back to me boy." Voldemort yelled.

"Expelliumas!" Harry yelled

"Cruciatus" Voldemort cried back as they were both now dueling.

It was pain beyond relief. But before he let it get to him Harry cried one last thing.

"Avada Kedavra" With that Voldemort fell to the floor making Harry the New Dark Lord.

***

Draco starred icily at the small little girl in the crib. It had been her fault that Hermione was gone. It was her fault that Hermione wasn't with him and it was her fault that he had been in the position to kill the one women he ever really loved. Even to some respect it was her fault that Harry Potter was now the Dark Lord. This little baby had changed the course of the wizarding world without ever knowing it.

He tried to hate the Small child before him. He couldn't. He knew he would have to give her up to slaves, he would never allow this child to grow close to him. It would be important for her survival.

He remembered when he told his mother his intensions.

"Are you sure Draco?" She asked him.

"It's the only way she wont be in the position her mother was."

"She is only a baby."

"Exactly." This was for the best and he knew it.

"If your so sure." His mother said somewhat skeptically.

She would grow up with the natural Malfoy beauty. Blonde hair, grayish eyes, and the perfect complexion. He thought as he looked at her. She too was starring at him wide eye while squirming in the cradle. He smiled at her and for the first time in years he cried.

Authors Note: I am sorry it had to end that way but that would have destroyed the sequel. Information on the sequel will be given after I finish a few chapters (I have done two already) so I can update more daily. Once again I want to thank all the reviewers, you guys are the BEST! I cannot believe I finished.

Much Love H. Malfoy
