1"And Where Have You Been?"

Hermione stared through the little crack in amazement. Sure Percy had been horrible to his family and Dumbledore, but Hermione never thought he would go to the dark side.

"Hahahaha, I tell you those fools of muggles actually thought they could stand against us"Hermione noticed the way Percy emphasized the word us.

"Oh well just a couple more whores to add the collection back home"Another man took off his mask and Hermione was unsurprised to see Lucius Malfoy.

The rest of the men had taken off their masks and were standing around talking loudly. Hermione caught bits of the conversation and she assumed they had attacked a group of young teenage girls. They had to kill one of them and after that the rest went fairly quietly. Hermione's eyes filled with tears as she listened to how they planned on raping every girl eventually whilst the girls were locked up in a manor.

She recognized all of the men as Crabbe, Goyle, Malfoy, Zabini, Percy, and Macnair.

"Oy Malfoy, how many cells you got left in that manor of yours?"A dark haired man who slightly resembled Blaise called out across the room.

"About twenty why? Yours getting full, Zabini?"Lucius Malfoy smirked evilly.

"Hell yeah, Got five to a cell now"Blaise's father answered.

Percy closed a door on a small cabinet on the other side of his desk. Setting the bottle down on the desk he magiced six cups. He poured the alcohol into the cups until they were full to the brim. The other Death Eater's crowded around it and all drank deeply from their cups.

"Ow"Percy Weasley dropped his glass and it shattered on the ground as her grabbed his left forearm.

Five other crashes quickly followed.

"Come on let's go"MacNair grunted.

All six of the men apparated to an unknown spot where Voldemort was probably waiting for them. When Hermione was sure they were gone she slipped out of the wardrobe cautiously. She crossed the room over to the fireplace and began searching for the floo powder. She looked all over the mantle and through the many green and black and silver vases but found nothing. Hermione stood back and looked all around the room wondering where it was kept.

There on the right side of the desk was a navy blue velvet bag. Hermione hurried over to it and opened it up. Inside was floo powder. Grinning Hermione took a small bit and put the bag back in its place before practically running over to the fireplace.

Just before she was about to leave she heard more footsteps outside the door. As fast as lightning Hermione was back in the wardrobe peeking out through the crack again. She was extensively surprised when a young teenage girl probably only thirteen or fourteen entered the room.

"Mr.Weasley, are you in here?"the young girl asked timidly"Your wife is waiting for you in the lounge"

The girl watched the leather chair intently as it was turned around and from her position you couldn't tell whether or not someone was sitting in it. Hermione studied her clothing carefully. Her skirt was so short and her shirt so revealing that if she bent over she might as well not be wearing anything at all. They were frayed on the edges and had stains everywhere. Hermione's heart went out to the young girl. She was very tan and looked Hawaiian.

"Miliani"a woman's screechy voice echoed up to the room.

"Coming Ma'am"she young girl's eyes widened as she heard the voice.

She ran out the door faster than Hermione had ever seen someone run. Hermione waited a few minutes before getting out of the wardrobe and flooing quickly, before someone else could stop her, to Apartment 109 Malsburry Apartments.

She spun quickly but her thoughts reeled faster. She had to warn Draco and Blaise that their fathers were in the country. At that moment she wished she could go faster than ever. As soon as that thought was over she felt her self falling face first...fast.

Much to her surprise something grabbed her waist before she hit the ground. She was pulled upright to look into the face of Draco.

"And where have you been"he scowled practically pushing her into the couch crossing his arms.

His expression however softened when he saw her pale face that had a scared look plastered on it.

"Hermione"he whispered softly sitting down next to her.

"He...he's in America"she gasped between breaths.

She hated floo powder for a reason it always took the breath out of her.

"Who's in America, who?"Draco grabbed her shoulders and pulled her closer.

"Your father, and MacNair, Crabbe, Goyle, Blaise's father, and Percy Weasley"Hermione's breath was back.

"Shit...wait did you say Weasley?"he stood up with his hands behind his head.
Hermione nodded"Yeah, Percy Weasley"

"Ha, who would have guessed that a Head Boy would go to the Dark Side?"Draco grinned sitting back down next to her.

"It's not funny Draco and have you forgotten already that your father is in the country?"Hermione was now agitated at hin for not taking this very seriously.

"Don't worry I still know but I can't do squat until Blaise gets back from work"Draco smiled sadly at Hermione"But in the mean time tell me everything that happened"

Hermione now launched into the story of how she had come to find out this valuable information.

"Wow"Draco whispered"But like I said we have to wait until Blaise comes home"

"Yes I know"Hermione replied softly before they slipped back into silence.

"Draco?"

"Yeah"

"Did you have teenage girls locked up in your dungeons?"

Draco looked into the fire with tears brimming in his eyes but he didn't answer.

"What happened to them?"Hermione's voice was barely a whisper.

"What do you think?"Draco leaned back in the couch keeping his eyes on the ground.

"A lot, like rape and torture and starvation and loads of other stuff"Hermione pulled her legs up onto to the couch a few tears slipping down her cheeks.

"Don't cry"he muttered pulling her into a hug.

"You didn't...I mean you never"Hermione started.

"No never"Draco held her tightly in his arms.

"That's good to know"Hermione murmured into his chest.

Hermione felt perfect in his arms as if she was meant to be there forever. Not wanting to get up Hermione moved a bit to make herself comfortable. They stayed in the same position until they heard the door open behind them.

"Oh hey Jake"Draco turned around looking to see who came.
"Hey"he plopped down in an armchair nearby.

"Do you know when Blaise is coming home from work"Draco asked shifting back into his original position.

"Yeah he should be here in like one minute"Jake stood back up"Night"

Hermione watched his retreating back until the door swung open for the second time to reveal Blaise standing in the doorway.

"Hey Blaise"they both said in unison.

"Well aren't you two just ever so cozy"Blaise smirked as he sat down in the armchair Jake had been sitting in.

Hermione and Draco glared at him in mock rage.

"Oh shut up Blaise"Hermione snapped.

"Hey I only calls em' as I see em'"he shrugged.

"Well now that that is over we have a very serious matter to discuss"Draco said solemnly.

"Don't worry serious is my middle name"Blaise smiled stretching out over his chair.

Hermione burst out laughing and Draco closed his eyes while counting to ten.

Blaise glared at them"Well I love you guys too"he muttered.

"Yes well anyway this is very serious"Draco opened his eyes as Hermione stopped laughing and straightened up.

Yet again the story was told but this time Draco told it all with a bit of help from Hermione when he forgot certain parts. Blaise remained silent after the story was told.

Standing up he muttered"I'm going to bed"

He departed from the room before either Hermione or Draco could stop him.

"I'm going to bed"Hermione told Draco after they had been in silence for a couple minutes.

"Yeah, I'll be in in a minute"he waved her away with his hand.

"Okay goodnight"Hermione walked into Draco's room and turned on the light.
Walking over to the corner where all her clothes were she pulled out her pajamas and quickly changed into them. Turning off the lights she crawled in bed and tried to fall asleep but her thoughts wouldn't allow her to. She kept thinking about how Blaise and Draco had reacted to their fathers being in America and so close. they hadn't seemed very surprised but they had probably expected for them to come after them.

Hearing the door open she looked up to see Draco coming. She turned away as he pulled off his pants and shirt. He crawled under the covers next her and muttered:

"Night Hermione"

"Night Draco"she muttered back before falling into a restless sleep.
