Disclaimer: Once again for you illiterate people. I own nothing but the
plot, so kiss off.
A/N: I know it took a really long time to get this chapter up and I apologize. The problem was I wasn't sure how to put the scene I saw in my head down in words, so after about 2 weeks I think, I finally got it. So please enjoy and R&R. Thanks to the people who have reviewed.
Chapter 11: Show down
"Maybe you guys should leave." Ginny yawned. "I'm getting very tired and besides you guys have class today."
Hermione nodded agreeing with the fact that they can't miss classes. Ron and Harry sighed knowing what would come next.
"Are you sure you're going to be alright, here all by yourself?" Ron asked hoping she would change her mind and ask them to stay.
"I'll be fine. I'm just really tired." She answered disappointing Ron, who really didn't want to go to his classes. "I'm not trying to be rude but I really would be grateful if you guys did go. I haven't gotten much sleep lately."
"How could you, when you have that stupid git bothering you all of the time." Ron said very clearly still annoyed that Ginny and Draco like each other.
Ginny gave Hermione a pleading look. She understood and turned to the two boys. "Come on you two, we have Professor McGonagall right now. And we know how strict she is. I also don't think Madam Pomfrey is going to give us a pass, so we better go to class, while we have some minutes to spare."
Both boys glared at her because they knew what she was trying to do.
Hermione winked at Ginny as she escorted the boys to the door.
Ginny watched them as they left. She sighed with relief; she could now put her plan into action. Draco wasn't going to get rid of her that easily. She was going to help him. Even if he didn't want it, she could care less.
She watched as Madam Pomfrey walked into the office. She had decided to make her move while She wasn't looking. She climbed out of bed and carefully made her way to the door.
There was no way she was going let Draco do this alone, she thought as she slipped out of the room and down the hall.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Draco reached inside of his cloak and remembered his secret weapon. He knew it wasn't the best thing in the world to use but it would hopefully get the job done.
He pulled out a sword. It was the muggle way of fighting but Draco had had lessons with them when he was a boy. Besides if it serves its purpose, that's all that mattered to Draco at this moment.
Lucius started to laugh at his son. "A sword? You expect to beat me with a sword." He straightened his posture. "I was the one who taught you how to fight with one boy, I'm sure your memory isn't that bad."
Draco didn't say anything about the comments. Of course he remembered, how could he forget when he had so many scars on his back, or the long nights he had spent in his bedroom trying to recover because if he wasn't fine by the next day the lashing would've been worse.
"There is no way you can beat me with a measly little sword. I know all your moves boy and trust me they aren't very good one's."
"Well if you think you can beat me, why don't you shut your trap and fight me. Then we'll see the real man walk away from here." Draco challenged.
He smirked and grabbed one of his own swords off the wall. "Fine, but I don't think your mother would've approve." He said knowing that would hit the right button.
"Don't you dare talk about my mother you bastard!" He yelled letting his anger take control as he leapt in the air and his sword came crashing down on Lucius's.
"You should've seen the look on her face when she knew her loving husband was poisoning her. I'll never forget how she begged me to stop."
Draco paused. "She knew? She knew all along?" He wasn't sure if he should be disgusted that she was devoted to the family name that much, or if he should be ashamed because she knew that Draco would've came and got her if she asked for it, was she that afraid to ask for help? Did she think it would make her weak, like Draco always thinks.
Lucius smirked. He wanted to get Draco upset and angry, it will make him unable to be in tune with all of his abilities and then he will have the advantage and do what he should've done to Draco a long time ago. "Of course she knew. Did you actually think she would disgrace the family name by turning me in, besides I had already told her it would just be more painful if she tried."
"How could you do that to someone? Didn't you love her at all?" Draco already knew that answer but he wanted to hear Lucius say it.
"Of course I didn't."
"She did everything you asked of her! Even on her dying bed, she didn't tell anyone and yet you still disrespect her. She never revealed any of the Death Eaters plans, she stayed out of your way when you asked or yelled, she never did anything without your permission, She never came to my help after you beat me even though you knew she wanted to, and the list goes on. How could you not love her? What did she do?" Draco asked as more anger then he knew he had swelled up inside of him.
"She didn't do anything. She just wasn't what I was looking for; I only married her because she was a pure blood. Besides Malfoy's don't love, we can't afford to lose ourselves in something as stupid as that."
"That's where you're wrong. We are human; we're not some super beings that can with stand anything. We have emotions, I know it's just most of the time you wouldn't let me show them. We have all emotions including the ability of falling in love. You just must have hidden them so long, you've forgotten how to feel." Draco raised his sword once again and pointed it at Lucius.
Lucius smiled evilly and disapparated.
"Son of a Bitch. I forgot about that!" Draco looked all around trying to keep his guard up. He should've expected Lucius to cheat that way. These were times he really wished he could apparate.
He sighed, in a way he hoped Lucius wouldn't come back; but then again he would never get to kill him and that would've made his trip here a waste of time.
Lucius watched Draco from the shadows. He knew he had Draco just a little paranoid and he liked having the upper hand. He clutched his sword in his hand. He couldn't wait to sink it into Draco's skin; he had waited so long for them to have a fight with no restrictions. He was sure Draco had waited this long, maybe even longer, for this fight as well.
He sliently moved from the shadows and deeply sliced Draco in the back.
Draco cried out in pain and swooped around and met the sword before it could cut him again.
There was a loud clang that echoed through the corridors as the two swords collided.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ginny panted as soon as she stopped running. She hadn't run all the way but the Malfoy's estate is big. She wasn't sure where the front door was. Lucius probably did that on purpose, she thought bitterly.
She came to the biggest door she had seen since she had arrived. This must be it, she walked up to it and opened it as quietly as possible, which didn't seem to be much because the creaking sound it made would've most likely woken up all of England.
She held her breath and hoped that nobody heard that. She walked past a couple of house elf's that acted as if she didn't even exist. That made her nervous.
She turned down a corridor; they all started to look the same, like she was in a maze.
She hoped that this wasn't going to take very long. She prayed Draco was alright and at least was still alive she got there.
She took another turn and there was a big mountain troll. "Wrong way." She started to run. The troll had spotted her as it squinted it eyes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Draco jumped back before Lucius could make contact. "And you call me weak. I think you're getting to old for this father." Draco smirked.
Lucius growled as he pulled out his wand and directed it towards Draco. "You'll pay for that." He wiped the blood from his forehead, where Draco had cut him earlier.
Draco quickly looked around frantically; he felt like he was a child again looking for a place to hide.
"Avada Kedavra!" He yelled sending the green light Draco's way.
Draco dodged it and skid under Lucius's desk for safety. He saw the green light hit the wall where he had been standing. He sighed with relief, but he knew the battle wasn't over yet.
"Why are you hiding?" Lucius asked in what he thought was a comforting voice. "Are you a baby again?"
Draco closed his eyes. He wasn't going to let his pride talk him into stepping out. Damn it he hated being called a baby. He came out and stood up.
"Well at least he does have some pride left in that little skull of yours." Lucius flipped Draco's sword out of his hands, caught it and hurled it across the room. "Too bad. What are you going to do now?"
Draco gazed around to find something, anything to hit Lucius with; something that'll at least distract him for a tiny bit, so Draco could get his sword back.
Lucius knocked Draco to the floor and put his foot on his back. "This is where it ends Draco." Lucius raised his sword.
A/N: YAH! Cliffy, don't pout about it too much it's not as bad as a cliff hanger that I left in Boy Trouble so get over it. Clue, the more you review the more I write. ::wink wink::
