Chapter 13 forest fire

"What is bloody going in here?" Professor Lupin said/yelled. Alex got up and looked out the window and I have to say that what she saw was very unpleasant. What she saw was the forbidden forest being set aflame.

"Oh, no." Alex said. Everyone was silent. Alex ran out side toward the forest. They rest went too. By the time they had got to it almost a half of a quarter was destroyed. Some one was heading toward them from the forbidden forest. It was professor Snape on Alex's unicorn. It was professor Snape. He came up to them then got off the unicorn. He was holding no one other than Draco Malfoy. He was unconscious.

"I saw Draco run in to the forbidden forest when it started to catch fire. I went after him." Professor Snape said. "He was trying to get this unicorn out and he probably breathed in too much smoke and passed out." Snape laid Draco down on the ground. Alex Looked at the forbidden forest and then her hands started to glow blue and she some how pushed a lot of force and the fire went out so did Alex. She passed out because that used all of her energy. Alex and Draco were taken to the hospital wing. The next day Alex and Draco woke up in two separate beds in the hospital wing. Ron, Harry, Hermione, and Ginny were besides Alex's bed. No one was there for Draco. Actually he was not there. Harry thought that he left before they got there, but then he came from the bathroom. He was drying his hair. He must have gone in to the bathroom to ashes and smoke smell off of him. His white shirt was black. But them Harry saw Draco walk over to the bed that was next to Alex's. There was one of Draco's clean white shirts. Draco took the black shirt like there was no one there. He probably didn't see them. He turned around to put the clean shirt on. Harry and the others saw that Draco had tremendous scars on his back. It looked like they were from a whip. Draco buttoned up his shirt and then he rolled up the sleeves. Harry realized that he must have burned his arm and hand because his left hand was bandaged. He walked out the hospital wing.

"What are you all looking at?" Alex said sitting up. They all had forgot that she was there.

"Oh, sorry." Ginny said. "Nothing, nothing at all. How you feeling?" Professor Lupin was not there because he had to go back home because his train was leaving today. If he missed it he would be stuck there for the whole year.

"I'll live." Alex said. "Where is victor?"

"He needed some time to think about things." Hermione said.

"And Hagrid will not let him go near you until he has cooled off." Ron added. Alex got up. They decided to go to lunch.

There were not a lot of people at lunch. Draco was at the Slytherin table with Crab, Goyale, and victor. The doors opened and Lucias Malfoy walked in. He walked over to Draco's table. He said something. Draco got up and left the dinning hall with him. Draco looked at Alex and mouthed the words help. She nodded and let them leave the dining hall before she got up. Then she walked out after him. The others followed. Draco and Lucias were arguing over something. Alex walked up to them.

"What do you want?" Lucias snapped.

"I … I just wanted." Alex started to say something, but she couldn't get out.

"Shut up." Lucias said. "No one cares what you want."

"Don't tell her to shut up!" Draco said. Lucias hit him across the face and Draco stumbled to the ground.

"Don't you ever use that tone again with me." Lucias said. "Got that? Answer me!"

Alex went after him. He put his staff up, but Alex didn't see it and she ran in to it. It pierced through her stomach. She let out a gasp in pain. For a minute she let what happened sink in and them she took both hands and pulled the staff out and trough it on the floor. Alex was wearing a white tank top that showed her stomach. If she wasn't everyone would not have believed what everyone saw. Alex's wound started to heal fast. In seconds it looked like that a staff didn't pierced through her stomach. Lucias flew backward about five feet. Then Oliver Wood appeared out of nowhere next to Alex.

"You think you guys have the most powerful person." Wood said. "Think again. Tell your master that were more than ready." Lucias got up.

"Are you coming Draco?" He said.

Wood held out his hand to help Draco up. Draco took wood's hand and got up. He looked at his father. Draco started walk to his father but then he stopped. Put a hand in one of his pockets and took out a ring that had the death eater sign and he through it at his father. Lucias caught it. Draco turned to leave.

"Draco!" Lucias said. Draco turned to look at him. "What?" Draco said.

"You're throwing away your dreams." Lucias said.

"No, I'm throwing away yours." Draco said and he walked back to Alex.

"Traitor." Lucias said.

"Sorry, Lucias he had to be on your side before he can become a traitor. This is called making the right choices." Alex said.

Lucias stormed out of Hogwarts. Oliver hugged Alex.

"I'm so proud of you." He said. "Mom would have been too. I'm Shock at Draco. You had the courage to stand up to your father."

"I'm shocked myself." Draco said.

"Any way." Wood said. "You two need to be extra careful. Don't go out at night or anywhere by your self for any reason."

"Yes." Alex and Draco said at the same time.

"Alex?" Draco said.

"Yes." Alex answered.

"Why did he say mom. Not your mom?"

"Because we have the same mom but different dad. He is adopted. His father didn't want him and my mother was told that his father killed him. He later was found in his home dead. He killed himself. Until this year I didn't know my father. Oliver visited when he wanted. But mostly it was my mom and me. I didn't feel like looking for my dad, because I didn't need him. I kind of hate him. He left my mom when things got tough. I don't care anymore. All I know is that my mom did not die from an illness. She was killed by voldemort and he is going to pay."

"Alex, Draco just the people I need to see." They both turned around. It was Blaise one of Draco's Slytherin friends. "How are you two these days?"

"What do want now?" Alex asked.

"I was just asking how you guys are. I'm actually looking for Crab and Goyale. Have you seen them?"

"Try where ever a large amount of food is." Draco said.

"Ok. See yeah." Blaise walked away. Draco and Alex headed for the library, not realizing that Ron, Harry, Hermione, Ginny, and Victor were following them. Draco and Alex took a seat an empty table near the window. Alex looked out the window. It was a beautiful day out side. There was a warm gentle breeze coming through the window.

"Alex?" Draco said. Alex looked at him. "How did you do that back there? That should have killed you."

"I don't know." Alex responded. "I found that out when I was six years old when I fell out of a tree on a six inch metal rod. I didn't know that it pierced through my heart. I went in the house and my mom almost had a heart attack. I saw what was sticking through me. I didn't feel anything so I pulled it out. Seconds later it looked like nothing happened."

"Oh."

"Now that we're on the subject. What is with the scars on your back? I saw them in the hospital wing when you were changing your shirt. I think Harry, Ron, Ginny, and Hermione saw too." Draco looked at her and then he got up and left. He headed for the Slytherin common room. Alex put her head on the table baring it in her arms.
