Blaise wakes up the next morning again in Draco's room. She smiles to herself slightly as she feels him shift behind her, it feels nice for someone to hold her, it is nice to know someone is in her corner so close to a fight, so close to a dangerous situation. Plus she can't be in the room with the rest of the Slayers this morning; there would be too many questions to answer, and she just isn't up for it.

Blaise gets out of bed and walks over to where she placed her things. She was instructed to take both potions before breakfast, the anti-veritasum one and also the one that will counter the injection to take away her strength. She downs both quickly, grimacing as she does, trying not to gag one or either of them back up.

"You would think they could make that taste better, the amount of people who are using it now," Draco drawls from his position on the bed.

She turns to face him, "Yes well, I'm sure that would ruin some properties of the potion, you did sit through NEWT level Potions correct?"

"Of course I did, and I bloody well know that," Draco says getting out of bed, "just wishful thinking, like thinking that we don't have to do this today."

Blaise nods and goes through some of her cloths to pull on a skirt and a blouse, something that will look good and less American for when she sees her father again. That is what she was most nervous about. She still held to what she had said a few years ago, Voldemort didn't bother her that much, she can deal with him. Her family on the other hand scares her. So much magic can be done with blood and that part always is like a vice gripping her. What would her father do to her if he found out the truth? If he found out that the last place she wants to be is with the rest of her family?

She turns as she finishes dressing to grab her makeup and sees Draco finishing dressing as well. He walks over to her and puts his chin on her shoulder and looks at both of them in the mirror. "You trust me?"

"Of course I do Drake."

"I know the others don't, but for this to work, you are going to have to trust that you know me."

Blaise turns to look him in the eyes. "You don't have to sugar coat what might happen today for me, I know what happens at Death Eater meetings, with muggles and everything. I grew up in this, just as you did. I'll be fine."

"I know you will, just wanted to make sure. Besides you're a Slytherin."

They smile at each other and start making their way up to Dumbledore's office so that Blaise can be injected with the drug. Draco says the password and they walk up to the office where Dumbledore, Giles, Charlie and Buffy are all ready for her.

"Blaise," Buffy begins, "you can back out at any time."

"Would you back out of this Buffy?"

"Well," Buffy thinks, "honestly no, but I do know it can be hard when family is involved."

Bliase walks over to the senior slayer and gives her a hug, "I'll be fine Buff, but thanks."

Buffy nods at her and sits down on one of the couches out of the way.

"This will pinch a little and you will start feeling weak almost immediately," Giles says starting to prepare the injection. "Why don't you sit here...?"

"I'll do it," Charlie says walking over to where they are. "If you don't mind I would like to do this, as Blaise is my Slayer."

"I would prefer that actually," Blaise says looking at Giles.

Giles nods and hands the syringe over to Charlie who has Blaise sit in front of him. Blaise nods and pulls the sleeve up on her shirt, and Charlie injects the drug into her.

Blaise knows that because of the counter serum, she really wouldn't feel anything, but hopes that she reacts to it well anyway. Charlie will be able to tell immediately that something is wrong if she doesn't, and he can't know about the counter-serum at this point. As she looks at everyone it seems to have worked because they all have looks of pity on their faces. "It's Ok, I'm fine," she says.

Dumbledore nods. "Mr. Potter should be here in a moment. Mr. Malfoy if you could leave and get into position that would be most helpful."

Draco acknowledges Dumbledore and sends Blaise a quick nod as he leaves the office.

Blaise sits down on one of the couches near Buffy, drinking the tea that has been offered to her and waiting for this plan to go into action. One thing does disturb her about this morning is why Professor Snape isn't there. She is almost positive it was mentioned he would be.

"Mr. Potter, good, right on time," Dumbledore says as Harry enters the room. "Now, Miss Zabini, you and Mr. Potter will look as you are having a nice walk. Mr. Weasley will be with both of you but following behind. Try to stay as close to the Forbidden Forest as possible without looking as if it is planned. Now go on."

Blaise stands up and goes out the door first as Charlie puts a hand on the small of her back to guide her down the steps and through the Hogwarts corridors. She knows Harry is there following them. Blaise wishes that she could tell Charlie that the injection didn't work because she had a counter potion, but knows that would not be smart. That Dumbledore knows all. But in thinking about that then he must know about what she did this morning, how she took both of the potions. She doesn't have much time to reflect on this as they walk out the main doors to the school.

"Blaise, I think it would be better if it looks as if we aren't close," Charlie says to her.

"Of course," Bliase says, walking slightly ahead of him. Harry catches up to her and they begin to stroll along the Hogwarts grounds, over towards Hagrids Cabin.

"I was wondering something Harry," Blaise says to him, "How do you fit into all of this?"

Harry knows that he has two options, he can tell her about the prophecy, which is forbidden in case the anti-veritasum doesn't work. Instead, he gives her the most plausible excuse, "I'm involved in the back-up plan. Dumbledore figures that it would be a better looking defeat for us if I happen to be the one that is supposed to be guarding you when you are taken."

Blaise nods her head, looking like she accepts that answer, but actually doesn't. She doesn't think that's all, there has to be something else. She wonders if anyone actually knew all the parts to this plan, the way that everything fits together. She figures that Dumbledore is the only one. The danger he will be captured is minimal, so it is likely he knows all and no one else. Blaise shakes her head slightly at this thought.

Harry is about to ask Blaise what she is thinking when he hears a rustle in the bushes. He pushes Blaise behind him and pulls his wand out to start looking around.

Charlie sees Harry begin to move and pulls his own wand out, and starts to move closer to them.

As Harry looks around, Draco comes out of the forest. "Well Potter looks like you didn't do too good of a job hiding her. Did you really think I wouldn't come for one of my own?"

"I won't let you take her Malfoy."

Draco laughs a condescending laugh, "Of course you will. I know you won't let me but I will take her."

And at that Draco hits the two men with curses that leave them on the ground and grabs Blaise, knowing she would be confused. He isn't supposed to hurt either Harry or Charlie.

Blaise doesn't know what to make of the curses that Draco just cast, but goes along with it, knowing that she can trust him no matter what.

Draco grabs his broom from a spot behind a tree and both get on. As they begin to fly away a commotion is heard from the Castle. People running out to see what is going on. But two men slide back into the forest and take a port key out quickly. Those two men being Lucius Malfoy and Severus Snape.
