Chapter Ten

"HERMIONE!" Draco yelled as he fell to the hard ground where she disappeared and started pulling up grass and digging up dirt with his bare hands, expecting to find her lying under it.

"NO! HERMIONE! WHERE DID YOU GO?" Draco's hands were all sore and cut up before he gave up. He fell onto his back and cried. "Hermione." He chocked. "I love you!"

Draco was about to sit up and run to Dumbledore for help, but he couldn't move. Seconds later, he fell into the ground the same way Hermione did. He was falling through what felt like a very thin, hot liquid for a couple of seconds until he hit a very hard surface.

"OUCH!" He yelled as he struggled to get up with pain. "What just happened? Where the bloody hell am I?"

He looked around and found himself back in the same hot cave room he was in with Voldemort a couple of weeks ago. He tried to find an exit but this room didn't have any.

"Hello?" Draco's voice echoed through the room. It was getting harder and harder to breath. The room filled with a thick black smoke. But then it disappeared as quickly as it came, and then a human figure with a heavy black hooded cloak stood in front of him.

"No need to shout Draco Malfoy." A deep evil voice came from the hooded man.

"Voldemort!" Draco growled. "What do you want? Where is Hermione?"

"Oh, she is being taken care of." Voldemort stepped aside so Draco could see a figure hanging from the wall by chains attached to their arms. It was Hermione and she wasn't moving.

"Hermione!" Draco started to run towards her but he was thrown back, and he flew across the very hot cave room.

"No, No, Draco my boy!" Voldemort walked over to Draco who was struggling to get up onto his feet. He was in so much pain, that he couldn't move. "The more you try to run to her, the more pain both of you will go through."

Draco looked up at Hermione and saw that she was screaming but couldn't hear her. He saw that she was being electrocuted, then it stopped and her little body went limp again.

Draco glared up at Voldemort and barked, "I AM NOT YOUR BOY!"

"You will not speak to me that way or your little mudblood will get it." Draco looked over at Hermione and saw that she was going through more pain. "Once the chains break, then she will be dead. It won't take much more. She is very weak."

"STOP IT!" Draco yelled while struggling to his feet.

"I will not stop for you unless you become a Death Eater."

"NEVER!" This time the room filled up with a loud scream and Draco looked over and found that it was Hermione.

"Do you not like that noise?" Voldemort asked.

Draco didn't answer. His eyes widened as he watched Hermione go through something like this. It was making him sick but he couldn't say anything. The electricity got stronger and her screams got weaker till no noise came out of her. The chains then broke and her body tumbled to the floor.

"NO!" Draco started to run towards her body but Voldemort threw a spell at him to try and stop him. Then something took over Draco's body. He pulled out his wand and without saying anything; he somehow blocked the evil spell and it shot back at Voldemort, throwing him against the wall and he disappeared. Draco stood there, wide eyed, with his wand still up in the air, and wondering how the bloody hell he did it.

Moments later, he snapped out of it and turned towards Hermione, who was laying dead on the hard, warm floor in front of him.

He closed his eyes. This can't be true. He thought. She isn't dead. When I open my eyes, she will be standing in front of me with a smile spread across her beautiful face. But when Draco opened his eyes, she was still laying limp in front of him. The only thing that changed was the environment he was in. He was now standing in the middle of the Quidditch field. Just like in my dream. He thought. Oh, no! Tears started to fill up in his hurt gray eyes.

He slowly knelt down next to her and lifted her head onto his lap. A drop of blood trickled from her mouth and onto his pajama pants. Then another drop of blood traveled from a gash in her forehead to her hair.

"Drops of blood." Draco said to himself. "Someone once told me about drops of blood."

"I did." Said a very familiar voice. Draco spun his head around. He couldn't believe who was standing behind him.

A/N: I'm so sorry it was so short. Then next chapter will be better I hope. I am sorry to say that this story only has like two or three more chapters left till it's the end. I hope you all enjoyed it. Anyway, please review and the next chapter will be up VERY soon! Thanks!
