ShadowMoony: You SO rock!

Chapter 7: Violent Death

After Ginny hadof the burrow, she suddenly stopped. She just realized what she had been doing. How was she supposed to find Harry? She had no idea where he went.

Ginny needed to go someplace quieter to think about where Harry went. She needed to go somewhere where she would be left alone to think. After a few minutes of thinking, she finally decided that The Leaky Cauldron was a good enough place to think.

When she arrived to The Leaky Cauldron through apparition, she looked for a table to sit at. When she found the table that she wanted to sit at, she pulled a chair out and sat down. Then after sitting down, she began to think.

There were so many places that Harry could be. Ginny's first thought was Hogwarts. But then she thought, No. Harry knew that people would think to look for him there. Where else could he have gone? Ginny thought to herself. Her next idea was Diagon Alley. But what would be the point of going there? Maybe he would go to Diagon Alley to go to Gringott's, but I think money is the last thing on his mind, Ginny thought.

"Can I get you anything, miss?" a short, portly elderly man who worked at The Leaky Cauldron asked Ginny.

Ginny thought for a moment. "A butterbeer please."

The man left to go get Ginny's butterbeer and then returned with a nice and tasty butterbeer for Ginny.

Ginny smiled weakly. "Thank you."

The man nodded and then left to get somebody else a drink. After he left, Ginny began to think again about where Harry could be. She took a sip of her butterbeer. She thought about Harry possibly being at the place where the muggles he used to live with lived. But then Ginny thought, he hates them, why the hell would he go there?

Ginny knew she wasn't thinking hard enough. Maybe if she thought about the last few weeks before his disappearance, maybe she could think of where Harry could be. She thought of all the places that he had gone that she knew about during the last few weeks that she saw him. Each place, was less likely than the next. But after about a half hour of thinking, a place finally dawned Ginny where he could be. After a few more moments of thinking about if he could have been there, she was definitely sure that was where he went.

She got out of her chair and stood up. She concentrated really hard on the place where Harry most likely was. And then she apparated to where she wanted to go.

He hit was hit with a curse so hard he howled in pain. He had never been in so much pain in his entire life.

"Get up, you useless pile of filth." said a male voice.

Slowly, he got up from where he was kneeling and tried to stare into the face of his attacker. It was too dark to actually see his face, but he could make it out just a little bit.

"What the hell do you want from me? We did it, Sir! We kidnapped Saint Potter for two years and made him pay for killing the Dark Lord! He has no idea what the hell happened to him for the past two years! We did our job! The dementors, The Ministry of Magic, and the entire wizarding world have no idea that we weren't in Azkaban! Why do you want to kill me? I have been very faithful, please don't kill me, Sir!"

"You just don't get it do you, Malfoy? I don't care if you were faithful or not, I'm still going to kill you. And I don't care who your father is either. You are useless. You are nothing. You are just as pathetic as Pettigrew. Any last words, Draco?" said the voice.

"Please Sir, don't kill me! I'll be your servant for the rest of your life! I can help you be the second Dark Lord! You'll be better than him, I know it! Just please give me a chance!" said Draco, tears flooding down his face. He had never been so scared in his life. He knew there was no way he was getting out of this situation, but he had to try. He just had to.

"Crucio!" shouted the voice.

Draco screamed in sheer pain. He thought the curse that him before was painful. That felt like a simple needle prick compared to the intensity of the Cruciatus Curse. The pain ran through Draco's body like lightning.

"Shutup!" said the voice. He whispered an incanation that made Draco stop screaming. He was only screaming silently now.

"I am tired of carrying you around with me, dragging me down! I have delayed this long enough, Draco! These are your last moments! Remember them well! Oh and before I forget say hello to the Dark Lord for me. Avada Kedavra!" said the voice.

A jet of green light shot out of the man's wand and hit Draco directly in the chest. Draco didn't even have time to scream. After the curse hit Draco, he fell to the ground face first. For several moments, the man just stared at the body of Draco Malfoy. But he knew he shouldn't linger too long. Somebody was going to discover him soon. Somebody was going to know that not only did Draco escape from Azkaban, but so did he. Soon dementors would be after him. And soon, Harry Potter would be after him.

He opened the door of the room that he was in. Piercing sunlight was revealed. He groaned.

He walked out of the room the same way that Harry did only a few hours earlier. He didn't know the town very well. But after a little searching he found the woman that he was suppose to be meeting.

The woman smiled. "Hello Severus. Lovely day, isn't it?"

"Let's just get going, Bellatrix."
