Warning: slash and everything else.

The summer before Draco Malfoy's started his seventh and final year at Hogwart's school of witchcraft and wizardry, the young Malfoy Heir came to a decision that would shatter most of the lives and preconceptions around him. Draco was now of age in the wizzing world. And while it was one of many milestones in his life, it had also started an invisible clock going on how long before Voldemort, the current Dark Lord, called for him to be marked. Draco's childhood had been peppered with stories of the Dark Lord and the glorious world he would establish after the muggles and muddle bloods were disposed of properly. These ideals shaped his life, many of them he felt were valid but others he felt had no veracity. Draco like all Malfoy's before he thought and planned before they acted and after sometime; Draco begun to doubt some of his father's beliefs and the Dark Lord as his plans to killed one teenage boy failed each time.

Since Draco was a small boy, Lucius taught him about his family history, customs and ideals, while stressing what his duty to the Malfoy line should be. At the same time Narcissa taught him what it meant to be a magical pureblood being and his duties as such. From Severus he was tutored in the art of politics and how it was his duty to use it to protect his family. To temper the burdens each placed on him, each one gave him joy to balance him out, Lucius taught him how to fly. Narcissa taught him the magic lyre while Severus introduced him to the art of potion making. Draco was raised to be a well-rounded young wizard.

As a result Draco grew up with an excellent sense of who he was and what was expected from him. At a young age Draco had decided to protect those of his world that was worthy, doing everything his power and magic would allow in order to keep that vow. For a long time Draco thought that protection would take the form of him joining Voldemort and ridding the wizard world of those that destroy it from within. However, after Draco began his education at Hogwarts, Draco found both his Lucius, Narcissa and Severus challenging him to think differently, react differently, each assigned him task to complete while at school. While Lucius and Narcissa task predictable involved learning more about his peers, magic and muggles; Severus task placed him in direct confrontation with Harry bloody Potter. Yet, with each new task Draco learned something new about himself and those around him. Draco began to think for himself and during this awakening Draco began to explore ideas and theories that showed him a different way to think and live and in doing so Draco found his own truth.

While Draco still agreed that both muggles and muggle-borns were a threat to the wizard world, Muggle borns are a security threat, each one exposes them to the possibility of detect by muggles after all it is only by the wizard world staying secret have they survived this long. Also Muggle borns bring with them their beliefs, which normally is a good thing; so while purebloods respect their right to such beliefs, the muggle borns did not grant the purebloods such considerations. And if you look at history, hell even recently purebloods have died due to such differences of belief at muggle borns hands. Lastly the introduction of muggle borns into the gene pool has caused a dilution in children born of the magic. While Draco now sees that muggle borns are necessary to prevent the extinction of the wizard race. He sees that their introduction into the gene pool was not handled currently.

While Draco did not have exact empirical data on what he now believes to be true, he knew in his heart that he had to be true. For years Draco and his friends have made fun of the Weasley's and the amount of children they have had. Well it seems that they had the right idea at the time. As Draco went over families histories and family trees he found out that many of the pureblood families have died out due to the fact that they did not produced enough offspring to carry on their lines. Take the Malfoy family, at one time in each generation five to ten children were born. There where no shortage of heirs. And each of these Malfoy when they came of age went out and made their fortune. However as time when on less and less heirs where born, female children were married off. Hell, even the number of bastard children dropped during this time. Soon in each generation only one male child was born, and if that child died then his parent no matter what their age was required to once again produce an heir. In the family books it is written that Augustus Malfoy and his wife Alexandra were 195 and 185 respectively when they had to once again produce a child when their son and his family where wiped out in an accident. Needless to say pureblood wizards both light and dark needed to produce more children before we really start to be inbred. And they need to find the proper way to introduce Muggle borns in the overall gene pool.

And while muggle borns were the more immediate threat, he could not help but shiver when he thought of what muggles would do to them if they found out that they existed. Draco was sure that there would be a war and that the muggles would do these best to secure them to use as weapons and if that failed then they would destroy them so that their enemies could not use them.

So with this in mind and the fact that he now realized that the Voldemort's ultimate goal would destroy the wizard world faster than the muggles and muggle-borns combined. Draco recognized something had to be done about the muggle and muggle-born problem soon; because soon wizard traditions and customs would be lost. However Voldemort was now their more pressing problem, and Draco had no desire or will to join Voldemort with his insane plans.

While Voldemort's attacks were designed to strike fear in his enemy's heart all it did was harden them and caused them to fight for their freedom. So now the light was gaining strength once they were organized and had some good intel the light side would be unstoppable So the sheer number of light supporters will overwhelm Voldemort and his forces causing his destruction; well that is if Harry Potter didn't kill him first.

So with a light heart Draco concluded that Lord Voldemort was a madman and second, that although the Dark Lord currently had the advantage, he would fall and he Draco Malfoy would do everything in his power to see it happen. Now all he had to do was tell his family.

The next morning found Draco knocking on Lucius' study. "Come in son," his father called out.

With a slight smile, Draco pushed open the door and said, "How do you always know it is me, and please stop saying it is magic."

"But Draco, it is magic, I cast a spell making the door transparent so I can see who it is before I answer," was Lucius' deadpan reply. The look on Draco's face made Lucius conceal a grin. "Sometimes I wonder about you boy. What brings you to my study so early in the morning?"

Looking his father in the eye Draco began, "After evaluating the situation, examining the information I have gotten from you and other sources, I have come to believe that Voldemort is insane and will not win the war. Therefore, I will not be joining you as a death eater." Shifting uneasily, Draco waited for Lucius' response with apprehension.

"Thank Merlin! Draco it's about time that you finally figured that out. I was beginning to think that all my stories and Malfoy pride was blinding you to the truth." Reaching out Lucius picked up his glass of fire whiskey. "Draco you know that the Malfoy is a family of dark wizards and witches. But as we have taught you being dark does not mean that we are evil. When I first joined Voldemort he was sane and actually had a plan, but soon after we started he started to listen to the more evil of his followers. Soon we began killing for the sake of killing, which is just unacceptable. But many of us were trapped. And we soon realized as we started having the next generation our children where trapped. So in order to protect you we taught you what we had to in order for you to survive. Since the Malfoy family was under the constant watch of both sides of this bloody war, your mother, Severus and I had to raise you in a certain way. We hope that you can forgive us for what we had to do. We just hoped that you would see the light before it was too late.

Draco stared as his father as if he had become a three-headed demon, unable to process what he was being told. "Father are you telling me that you raised me for the mad man but hoped I would choose the dark?" After receiving a nod from his father Draco exploded. "Are you bloody mad, do you know how close I came to blindly following your wishes and joining that insane fuck?"

Sitting up straighter Lucius looked at his son with a frosty look, " I know your excited Draco but you are a Malfoy, and there is no need for foul language to be used. It is the sign of an uneducated mind. That is why we sent you Hogwarts instead of Drumstrung.

And although you think it was a close thing it was not. Your godfather and I knew that even with your faults, you would realize what was best not only for you, but what was best for the Malfoy line. After all that is how the Malfoys have survived such confrontations between the dark and the light. For over 10,000 years when such wars arise we have always placed a player on both side of the conflict. Because of your indecisiveness, I had begun to worry that you would not figure this out in time. We have spent so much time teaching you the skills needed to be a master politician, but you rarely think things through. But this shows you did pay some attention."

Draco felt his anger vanished and knew that his family did what they had to do, to see that he and the Malfoy line survived. "So you meant for this to happen all along?"

"The need was not apparent at first", Lucius replied. "The debacle with the Potter boy changed much. But you're correct that the Dark Lord is unlikely to win. In fact, I will do everything in my power to ensure that he does not. You will survive this and rekindle the Malfoy flame. Society has changed since the first reign of the Dark Lord, and you are young enough to be positioned in a way that will restore the line to its rightful place, without any reminders of previous generations poor allegiances."

Draco tilted his head and looked at his father. "Don't you mean that we'll survive this?" Getting up from his desk, Lucius approached his son. Lowering himself slowly into the seat next to him, Lucius reached out as if to stroke his cheek, after a moment he withdrew his hand. Lucius' reply was slow in coming, and when it came, it was quiet and fierce. "Only one side can win this time, and I have determined that it will not be the Dark Lord's. A Malfoy would never submit to banishment or the dementor's kiss. You will be the one positioned to carry on the Malfoy name."

With the absence of any reassurance of his own fate, Lucius continued "I know your strengths and also your failures, you are my heir. I have perhaps been too gentle on you, serving Our Lord would have been difficult for you. I must admit that it is a consolation that I believe that this path will be smoother for you. I have never wished you ill, Draco." Lucius stopped when heard Draco's breathing hitch, and saw that he was fighting tears. He paused briefly allow Draco to gather himself.

"Naturally, there will be a new plan. As soon as you return to school, you will find the Potter boy, and swear your allegiance to him, and only him. You may promise to provide him with any information that you can gather from me, which will be more than he expects. Tell him you will do this in return for him standing by you at the end of the war. And when the war is over, it will conclude your agreement. This should save you and the Malfoy estate. I have taken other steps to ensure that the vast majority of the holdings are protected, no matter how they try to remove them from you. But this is the straightest path to our goals."

Draco looked deep into his father's eyes and saw a hero stronger than Dumbledore or Potter ever was or will be. 'Well, if I can use this turn of events to protect me, I can find a way to use it to protect father,' Draco thought. Out loud he said, "Do you think it will work?"

"Yes, last year the Dark Lord found out that Severus was the traitor, so now the light no longer has a source in the Dark Lord's ranks and certainly not in his inner circle. This has caused the light to lose the edge they had over Voldemort. I am glad I was able to warn your Godfather that Voldemort knew of his duplicity before the Dark Lord had summoned him to his death." Lucius replied.

Nodding in agreement, Draco questioned, "Will this cause a rift between you and Severus?"

"Of course not," Lucius replied firmly. " Since he has been found out, Dumbledore and his Order think that Severus beds me to gather information, not because he is my lover, friend and husband. Besides sometimes half the fun is Severus attempts to make me let things slip. But Severus and I have decided that I would only give him truly critical information, so that when it was time you'd have bargaining power with Potter."

"Father when I decided that I would not join Voldemort, I also decided to do everything that he did not win. So if we are going to do this we will need everyone to aid us, so we need to gather those around us that we can trust. This time we have to make sure that he can't come back no matter what. For this to happen everything must be planed down to the last detail." Draco said. "And my the way father I am tired of being an only child I want brothers and sisters."
