It was back to normal school for me; going to classes, pretending to listen, not doing any work. But it was all different all now; I had an ugly scar marking my arm that constantly hurt. It was so bad sometimes that I just wanted to chop off my arm and throw it away. Then there was everything else; Snape was bugging me, my father kept sending me letters asking for updates, all while all I could think of was that I was going to die.

I was scared the Dark Lord would discover that I had betrayed him, that I had been manipulated by the light side. I was going to die; he was going to kill me, it was going to be another public spectacle like last time, with my family laughing at me. All while I still have to kill Dumbledore. I have no idea as to how I'm going to do this, I'm still befuddled about why he would want to die.

It was crazy; nutty, everything that Dumbledore was. Only he would try to save a student by planning his own death. I will have to tell him everything, to tell him of my plans that I am yet to organise. I'm going to become like Snape, trusted by both sides; in a position of power. Power that I don't want to have, I just want to ignore all of this. To pretend none of this ever happened, that I was never made a death eater and that I was never given this task.

I was hiding away in the Room of Requirement, where I've been staying between classes. I didn't want to be in public, I didn't want to see everyone, here I was in solitude, I could see them, but they could not see me. I could stay here in safety, not many knew about this room, but unfortunately Potter did. he's like a terrier with the scent of a rabbit, he just wont leave me alone, he sits out there everyday, I don't know why he cant just leave me be.

It was then I heard a voice that I didn't expect to hear, I thought I was alone, away from everyone, on my own.

"Draco, how have you been?"

"What are you doing in here?"

"The Headmaster of Hogwarts will always have their ways."

"Oh what do you want?"

"To know how far you have come in your plans to end my life."

Great he's gonna bug me too. Why doesn't everyone just make the plans for me, didn't they realise that I'm sooky and don't want to kill anyone?

"I don't want to kill you, or anyone, you know that."

"Yes I do, but Tom doesn't."

"Tom?"

"Voldemort"

"Oh, I didn't know his name was Tom."

"Not many do know his true name."

Ahhh so the almighty Dark Lord, is actually mortal and has a real name. And it is common; I suppose that's why he's such an asshole.

"He's going to kill me."

"Hopefully not, join our side Draco."

"I can't, my father, my mother. He'll kill them."

"We could protect them."

"You can't. They want to remain death eaters. They love it."

"I thought so."

What the hell? Was he checking up on my family? Making sure that it was safe to take me and put me in the order? Maybe it would be safer for me to go under their protection. I could hide out in their headquarters; annoy the hell out of the Golden Trio all holidays. Voldemort wouldn't be able to get me, and I shouldn't care about my parents. They are cold-hearted arseholes who need a reality shock.

"I want to join your side. I can't live like this anymore."

"You have to pretend that you are with them until the end of the year."

"Like Snape?"

"Yes like Professor Snape."

"Oh."

"Will you actually die?"

"No, offcourse not, I have a plan."

What was I thinking, Dumbledore always had a plan; he was a huge walking plan. I have nothing to worry about; everything will be fine; Dumbledore has a plan. What am I thinking? Lets just leave everything up to someone else, I am so weak! I need to prove that I am good; I need to show everyone that I am not weak. I am strong, I am a Malfoy, I will succeed all of this; I will prove them all wrong!

Too lazy to write too much, just please REVIEW!
