Chapter 8: Eternal Flame

Next morning Madame Pomfrey allowed Draco to leave the Hospital and go straight to the Great Hall to have breakfast. He couldn't stop thinking how the others Slytherin will treat him. He felt so alone, lonely. When he came to the Great Hall he saw the entire students stare at him and the Slytherins giving him a death looks. He also notice that the teachers are complete and as if they're waiting for him. Before Draco could go to the Slytherin table Dumbledore stand up and caught the attention of the students.

"As all of you know it there were tragic things that happened yesterday. But in all those tragedy a hero was born. Someone who we think is not good enough to be a hero. Let's all welcome back Mr. Draco Malfoy."

And with that the crowd roar in cheers except for the Slytherins who roared in boo. Draco couldn't believe it. This is his moment not Potter's.

"Please come in front for us to have a good look on you and your wounds that you have acquire when you were out there doing the right thing." And once again the crowd roar in cheers as he walk to the front.

"One more thing before we have breakfast. I just want to tell all of you that Mr. Malfoy here will be transferring to Griffindor. It is for his safety as I felt that the Slytherins would torture him until the end of terms. Also for him to have great friends and a great and different life from now on." And with his last words everyone cheer as they have their breakfast.

Draco couldn't believe what's happening to his life. He has a different feeling. It's not the feeling of sadness or anger. It's the feeling of happiness and a new life. Almost everyone shook his hand when he went to the Griffindor table.

"Draco sit here!" someone shouted.

When Draco look to see whom it was and he found Harry asking him to sit with them.

"Is it alright with them?" Draco ask.

Everyone said yes with a smile on their face. Draco felt butterflies on his stomach when he saw Hermone smiling at him. Draco is so happy. Now he could remain with the person he likes. Hermione felt the same way about everything. After breakfast Harry and his friends went near the lake to have a picnic with their new friend.

That night after doing their long homework, with the help of Hermone and so is Draco's; they went to bed and fall asleep soon.

In Harry's Dream …

"Harry stay away from this place! Go back." A girl's voice echoes through the deep water.

Harry kept walking toward the light in the middle. His almost there when Harry notice that the thing that was glowing is a big flower. In the middle of the flower is what looks like a shield. Inside is a girl with long and golden hair, and her eyes' color is green and on her forehead is a tiara that prevents her hair from blocking her face. The girl was praying for something her eyes close. Harry touch the shield that prevents the water from coming in. His hand went through the shield then his whole body went through it. He found himself in front of the girl that is about their age.

The girl opened her eyes and saw Harry standing in front of her. Harry kneel down. Now they're face to face.

"You shouldn't have come here Harry Potter."

"Why? Who are you?" Harry touch her cheeks and the girl close her eyes and feel Harry's hand on her face. Then she hold Harry's hand (the one that touching the face of the girl.). She opened her eyes again.

"It doesn't matter right now. You should go. Never come back to this place." Taking Harry's hand off her cheeks.

"Take this necklace. Never let go of this." She said handing over a necklace with a small red stone in it.

"It will protect you from any harm." Now she's the one who touch Harry's cheek.

"Go. Go and defeat the Dark Lord. Bring peace to our world." Before Harry could reply the girl kissed her in the lips then everything turns white.

Reality …

"Harry woke up! Harry!" Harry heard someone waking him up. He saw Ron looking worried. Ron's face is red and he is perspiring.

"What happened?"

"You're dreaming again."

"Oh I see."

"What was it about this time"

"Still the same it's just that I saw a big flower in the middle. That's the one I told you glowing. In the was a shield protecting this girl."

"A girl?'" Ron said looking very confused.

"yeah she gave me this necklace that has a red stone in it. Then before I wake up she kissed me." Harry turns red when he said it.

"You said a necklace that has a red stone in it" Ron said picking something in the floor.

"Yeah why?" Ron straightened himself up and show Harry something.

"Is this it?" Ron said his voice shaking.

"How the hell did that get in there?"

"It fell when I was waking you up. I don't know it just showed up in your hand." Ron said looking very scared. Then McGonagall came bursting in the door.

"Potter are you alright?" she asked Harry making her voice sound casually.

"Yes Professor." He replied looking at Ron.

"Sorry mate I was too worried because you're not yet waking up so I told Seamus and Dean to call professor McGonagall." Ron said making himself as calm as he could.

"Come with me Potter. I think you have to tell that dream to Professor Dumbledor."
