Chapter 34

"I can't believe we have to live in this dump!" Draco mumbled as they entered the small apartment they had found in a concealed neighborhood in the west side of London.

"Just because you grew up in a mansion doesn't mean that anythinglessis 'filthy!'" Abbey snapped.

"What does that mean?" Draco barked.

"It means," Abbey drawled, turning to face him, "that you're spoiled!"

"I am not spoiled!"

"Yes you are!"

"I am no--"

"Listen," Abbey cut him off, sighing, "let's not fight right now, it'll only make our situation worse."

Draco glared at her for another moment, and then grunted in agreement, slamming the apartment door behind them.


"They are gone, my lord."

"Gone?"

"Yes, master. They must have somehow found out about our plan and fled."

"Where could they have gone?"

"Do not worry, my lord, I put a tracking charm on Colin last week. I know exactly where they are."

"Great work, my dear Lucius. Go and get the child tonight. Now that they know our plan we have no time to spare."

"Of course, master, I will go tonight."


Abbey sat sleepily up in bed, yawning loudly. Colin's shrill cries continued to ring down the hallway as she got out of bed.

Shuffling lazily out the door, she froze when Colin's cries suddenly ceased. Abbey's eyes widened in fear as she bolted inside his bedroom and ran over to his crib.

Her mouth opened in utter horror when she saw that he was gone. There was still a small indentation in the mattress where he had lain.

"DRACO!" Abbey screamed at the top of her lungs, turning and running back into her and Draco's bedroom.

"Wha-what's wrong?" Draco mumbled, half-asleep, as he sat upright.

"He's gone, Draco! They've taken him!" Abbey sobbed.

"Taken wh--" But Draco cut off, his eyes widening. "They took him? He's gone?" he cried, jumping out of bed.

"Yes, he's gone!" Abbey exclaimed, tears streaming down her cheeks. "We have to go find him!" she yelled, grabbing Draco by the shoulders and shaking him.

"We will, we will!" Draco replied, ripping himself from her grip and going over to the closet. "C'mon, let's go!" he cried impatiently as Abbey just stood there, sobbing.

"Yes, yes, of course," Abbey muttered, going over and pulling freshclothes out of the closet.

She and Draco quickly got dressed, and when they both had safely stowed their wands in their pockets, they ran outside into the cool night air.

"Wait!" Abbey said, now a little calmer, "How do we know where they've gone? They could be anywhere!"

"Uh…" Draco mumbled, thinking, "Well…Father obviously knew where we went into hiding, so he must've had some way to follow us or something…"

"A Death Eater, maybe?" Abbey asked.

"But we checked if we were being followed," Draco shook his head, "We would've known."

They both stood in silence, thinking. Then Draco's head snapped up and he pulled out his wand.

"A tracking charm!" he exclaimed, "That's the only way he would've known where we were!"

"But that still doesn't tell us where he went," Abbey replied gravely.

"Oh yes it does!" Draco replied happily, "I doubt he thought to take it off when he took Colin, so…" Draco muttered an incantation under his breath and gave his wand a wave. A piece of parchment with a map of London appeared in front of them and there was a red glowing dot moving along on it.

"Is that them?" Abbey asked.

"Yeah," Draco replied, studying the map, "And they've…gone to my father's house."


And the chase begins! Hope you liked it, and thanks for reading!
