Chapter 13

He landed swiftly on the ground and shook the water and mud from his hair before he raised his eyes to the mansion; the lightning seemed to course through the sky behind the house, making it eerie. She was in there, somewhere deep in the depths of that manor. He kept a tight grip on the braclet and focused again. Her eyes...they were covered...but why? She was lying against a wall, bound, her skirt was torn exposing her legs which she kept curled up, her blouse slitted across the chest. She was crying; he could hear the light whimpers. He couldn't allow them to hurt her anymore. He needed to find her.

He headed to the side of the buiding before he heard a voice from above. "You actually came, impressive." Over the wind and rain, Taka's voice was drawling and harsh.

"I believe you have something that belongs to me." Draco replied, tilting his head up to the window to his right. "Now I'd like her back."

"You'll have to come and get her then." Taka sneered and disappeared.

"You're mine you son of a bitch," Draco snarled quietly before Apparating again.

He had gone to horrible lengths to make that boy a welcome he'd never forget. His girlfriend was hanging in the middle of the hall from a hook in the ceiling, and she was stripped of everything except her undergarments. She moved her hands slightly, her wrists bound tightly by chains, her long hair fell in her bloody face before she felt his fingers against her thigh. "You really are such a spoil-sport. Don't you want him to see you now?" he played with the waistband of her knickers and grinned up at her. She tried to kick him but he grabbed her legs and held them and she flinched as he ran his hand up her ankle. "He's going to have such a good time tonight." He shut his eyes and focused. She stared as he was now level with her, his feet completely off the ground. His hand slowly tangled in her fiery locks and he jerked her head forward and kissed her, his hips grinding into hers painfully. She moaned against him and he allowed one of his hands to wander down her body, his fingers hovering over the waistband again. "I'll take so much pleasure in killing your lover, Ginny, then you won't have a reason to lift and you can give in to me."

"N-never," she muttered as his mouth sought hers out once more, only giving her a moments peace to breathe.

"Yes you will." He hissed and pulled her head back to expose her neck, his tongue on her skin immediately and she shuddered. "This isn't just about my past anymore and what to make right." She screamed as his teeth sank into her flesh and she felt something odd. He stared at her and she blinked, saw something drip from his mouth and realized it was her own blood. She felt weak all of the sudden.

"You-you're...a..." she never finished, her eyes fell shut and her body sagged as much as it could with those restraints. He slithered down her body and turned just as something came flying at his cheek and he staggered back.

"You will stay the fuck away from her." He eyed her slowly before his lip curled. "Now fight me you..." he frowned as Taka laughed, revealing his change. "Well, shit," Draco murmured as he looked over this new development.

"I'm far from human, boy." Taka said truthfully. It was now the only believable thing. "And unless you want your pretty little girlfriend to die, fight me." Draco went to grab him but felt his back hit the wall. "Come on," Taka smiled and moved as Draco countered and went for his jaw "Surely a great Clairvoyant such as yourself could have seen this coming? Guess not," he grasped Draco's fist, slowly crushing the bones, the boy's anguished cry rang out loudly as he sunk to his knees. "Get up. I'd like it if you at least acknowledged me you snide bastard." His foot plowed right into the Slytherin's face, breaking his nose. He rolled over and tried to stop the bloodflow and he heard the chains jingle and soon after, Taka's raging voice bellowing, "You BITCH! My face!" He advanced on her and Draco reached out and caught his leg, tripping him.

"Gin?" Draco lifted his head and saw that Ginny was leaning on the wall, her shoulder slumped and her bare body quivering. "Accio robes." his discarded robes had wrapped around her and she smiled weakly.

"You piece of shit!" Taka shouted and narrowed his eyes at her, Draco grinned as he saw the claw marks down the right side of the demon's face.

"Heh, now you know not to mess with my girl, don't you?" He winced as and sat up, his nose aching lightly before he healed it with his wand. "You scummy jackass," he growled dangerously.

Taka sneered and grabbed Ginny around the wrist and yanked her up. He snaked one arm about her middle and held fast, his other arm coming up to her cheek, along with a silver-edged knife, the metal flat on her skin, cooling her bruised face. "I'd advise neither of you to move if you don't want her to die," his eyes lingered on Draco as he stepped back with Ginny in tow.

Her eyes shut quickly and her mind faded, the corners became hazy and she concentrated. The voices around her were sinking and something inside of her flickered. You will release him and suffer my wrath. It sounded like a gunshot firing as Taka fell back and hit the ground, his chest soaking gingerly with blood. Draco crumbled against Ginny and held her. "What happened?" he asked, confused.

"I used my power to end his life." She muttered against his chest. "Telekinesis, Draco, that was my gift."

"We need to get you back, come on," he murmured and smiled slightly. They really needed to talk to the headmaster now.

She woke with a blinding headache and struggled to sit up. A hand pushed her back down and whispered, "You're too weak still."

"Yes, alright." She laid back and settled on the pillow.

"You've been through so much." Draco's fingers slid across her cheek.

"What're you doing up?" her voice was cracking.

"I sat by you for three days," she could hear the smile in his voice.

"Three...days? Is he...are they..?"

"They're gone, yes. When I was leaving I saw Megami's body, he killed her, my guess is because she was useless. Or something more happened that she found-" he faltered and she watched his silver eyes dilate slowly. "He killed her because she knew of his younger sister, Ryo's death, and that he plotted her demise."

"How awful." She frowned and slowly remembered what she had heard Taka say...about her...and her baby.

Four weeks later Ginny Weasley found out that she was pregnant. His death had reversed everything he had done.
