Weasley Rage
Despite Draco's wonderful attempt at cheering her up the dread in Ginnys stomach did not fade and within an hour, she was pacing along the length of the library. Her thoughts were a whirlwind of chaos and worry. Draco watched her pace, his frustration growing with every step.
Ginny suddenly froze her eyes turning to his. A look of fear filtered across them, then with a quite sigh and the thought peppermint she relaxed. sorry. She thought. She moved and sat beside him. She took his hand under the desk. "I'm trying to relax." She assured him.
Draco grunted. He dropped Ginnys hand and stood. "Let's go see Truth, maybe she can snap you out of it."
Ginny, just relieved she hadn't pushed him to the point of violence immediately followed him out. They moved up to his room watching for anyone though with their new 'abilities' it would surprise them if someone could remain unnoticed near them for very long.
The door opened as they came to it as usual and Truth yawned up at them. She stood and shook scale dust from her wings. She purred a greeting and Draco could almost feel the tension in Ginny lower. They moved to the bed and once Draco sat Ginny slid into his lap.
"Tell me something true Dray. Something you've never told anyone before." She asked snuggling into his neck softly.
He sighed. "I don't have any more to tell you." He lied.
Ginny stopped. "Oh, ok." She whispered. She pet Truth softly between her wings. There was silence again and he felt her swallow a sob.
"What?" He demanded. "Ron'll be fine, ok?"
"I hope so..." She whispered. "But that's not...I'm afraid."
Draco frowned, his anger cooling somewhat. How many times had he heard his mother whisper those word to herself? How many times had he denied his own similar thoughts every time Lucius touched a wand? "Of me?" He asked his voice emotionless.
Ginny was shaking her head even before she felt him tense. "I think I understand you a little Dray. I'm scared about what I did on the dreamtrails."
"The curse." He murmured, unsure how he'd forgotten. "It'll get easier, the guilt fades."
Again, Ginny was shaking her head before he could finish, and Draco was surprised that didn't piss him off more. "I'm... I'm afraid that I don't regret it." She confessed. "I enjoyed throwing my magic against Tom and leaving him dead." She truly sounded scared then. "I want to do it again."
Draco ran his hands along her shaking back. He was making comforting noises in the back of his throat while his mind moved on to other things. Ginny...His Ginny wanted to kill? Who had changed her so quickly and when?
"Oh Draco." She whispered. "What can I do?" She whispered more to herself then him.
Truth mewed a little and he turned her eyes to the reptilian beast. He quickly brushed away the thought that this was her doing. It was Ginny, of that he was sure. "I don't know." He heard himself confess." I'm sorry Gin."
Ginny had fallen asleep sobbing in his arms and he gently laid her down on the bed. He watched her face relax in sleep and wrestled with his emotions. Avada Kedavra was a powerful curse and not one to be played with.
She had delved into deep magic and found that shed enjoyed it. Maybe that's why she had forgiven Draco so easily? Because she lived for pain. Giving it, getting it... maybe it was her nature.
He groaned and rested his face in her hands. She'd obviously felt this pain since the dreamtrails, yet he hadn't even noticed until she let him. What kind of protection could he be if he didn't notice thing like that?
Suddenly Truth jerked awake, calling a shriek into the night that ached Draco to his bones. Ginny bolted awake. "Danger." She whispered. "Ron, Danger, Malfoy."
Draco flinched. "What the hell?" He questioned. Then a loud alarm shouted through the room and the entire school. "Death Eaters." He leapt of the bed with Ginny, who gathered Truth up in a motherly embrace.
"Where do we go?" Ginny asked. "I was unconscious."
"We need to find an Auror..." He conceded. He spared a look to the Dragon. "This is going to be awkward. An auror in an attack will think the magic is suspicious."
"Then I'll have to distract him. I need Truth to be ok."
Draco looked at her. "I know that Gin."
She nodded. "Good, let's go find an Auror then."
They moved calmly though the fear in the back of her mind told Ginny to run. The castle was in panic, there was a furious crowd of people surrounding them. It was then Draco remembered he was Head boy.
"Ok, everybody calm down!" He ordered. The shoving and shouting stopped and the room began to look less like a moshpit.
Ginny pulled the invisible Truth against her leg. The dragon had grew enough for her to reach below Ginnys knee. A shiver traced her spine.
"Now, where are all the 7th years?" Draco said and began sorting them into teams to follow him through the dungeons and into the Great Hall, where everyone else was gathered.
Draco... Ginny thought worriedly as she watched him help the first years to calm down. Draco missed the thought; he was surrounded by the many magical thoughts.
Someone brushed against Truth, making her yelp and nearly knocking Ginny over. They shifted back, until they were in the entrance hall and out of every ones way. Even here the stench of fear was over whelming her other senses. She watched the space she knew Truth stood in, attempting to control the nausea in her stomach.
Suddenly she couldn't control it anymore. She ran for the nearest door, out into the cool snowing air of outside and promptly let out the contents of her stomach behind a nearby tree. When she straightened, the world was spinning.
She heard Truth call out something but it sounded so faint so far away.
The world blurred as she fell faint. Snape stepped out of the castle and moved towards the fallen witch. He looked her over and threw a bubble of concealment over her in a large olive bubble. He threw a spell at the Dragon that lunged at him and Truth went flying, hitting a tree with a horrid crunching sound.
He sneered towards the castle and marched away, Ginny floating behind like a red haired cloud.
Draco cursed and rested his neck against the wall. He hated all this, people looking to him for help and all that. He'd much rather be snogging Ginny. Thinking of her he looked around, unable to see or feel her mind a form appeared and he headed outside.
"Ginny?" He asked the darkness, to no response. He was worried, she hadn't left his side since the shower and seemed unable to leave. "Ginny?"
He glanced around quickly. There had to be some clue as to where she had gone. She wouldn't just go for a walk with Death Eaters around would she?
He heard a soft mewling noise and searched with growing worry for both his loves. "Truth?" He called.
He found the young soft-scaled dragon curled up around herself and writhing in pain. With gentle hands, Draco picked the whelp up and cuddled her to his chest. "Who took her Truth?" He asked.
Mark. She thought in the speech of beasts that made Draco's mind ache. Dark...Mark.
Draco cursed and took off at top speed. If Voldermort had Ginny, she wouldn't live very long.
A scream tore itself from Ginnys throat and she fought against the bindings that held her in place beside Lucius Malfoy. She swore in every language she knew 3 times each, then moved on to inventing her own.
Finally, annoyed with this speech Lucius cast a silencing spell over her. "Shut up Muggle lover." He hissed, before once again concentrating on the man who had gifted him Ginevra. "Are you sure she won't be hunted after?"
"I destroyed the force helping her and the others that know her are Potters unit." Snape assured the elder man.
Lucius nodded. "Good." He glanced back at the red head who was still screaming silently. "You've done well. Just one more test before you can rejoin us Serverus."
Snape looked up, listening attentively. "What is it?" He inquired.
"Potters weakness is his love." Lucius explained to him. "You will find out who he loves dearest and report back as soon as possible."
Snape nodded and with the slightest rustle of coat he moved away, into a portal barrier that would lead him closer to the castle.
Lucius watched him go before turning his gaze on the girl glaring at him from her bound corner. "I remember you. You're the one we tried Tom Riddle on."
Ginny scowled. She growled something, but he didn't hear her.
He smirked and lifted the spell off her. "What was that?" He asked.
"I hate you." She hissed. "Harry has no weakness. He has trained the weakness out of himself. You precious Dark Lord will die like Tom Riddle and then you will die in Azkaban."
Lucius laughed. "Trained the weakness out of himself? Do you really buy that? I remember when he risked life and limb to rescue his Ronnie's little sister, and last year when we caught the mudblood with trolls and he came running."
Ginny growled and fought in her binds again.
"Well, we can't use the weasel, we've already killed him." Ginny fell limp with shock. Killed Ron? "And the mudblood is out of range and nearly dead herself."
"Ron?" She whispered, blinking slowly. "Killed Ron?"
Lucius sniggered. "Of course. He was in the way."
Ginny looked up at him. She searched his eyes and found no trace of a lie there, or in his smell. "No..." She whispered all the same. "You're lying."
Lucius shook his head. "Far too noisy." He commented. "Your brother is dead. Accept it. Your mine now and you will not be allowed to speak again."
He struck her with the back of his hand. "Nod if you understand."
Ginny growled primitively. "You killed my brother." She hissed. "You killed him and you tried to kill me."
Lucius slapped her again. "I said silence!"
"No!" She screamed. "I am not yours! I never will belong to anyone!"
"That is not your choice." Lucius told her. "You are mine, whether you wish to be or not."
Ginny clenched her eyes closed as his foot connected with her ankle. "No." She whispered. "No I am not." Her eyes opened and seemed to scream for revenge though they were not her own. The chains holding her arms snapped under pressure. "ACCIO WAND!" She screamed in a voice seethed in power, though it was not her own.
"You have killed your last whelp Lucius." The voice hissed. "Dragon or otherwise." She watched him make a futile grasp for his wand.
"Crucio!" He demanded.
'Ginny' flicked her wand in a strange pattern and Lucius screamed in agony as his own curse tore through his pain barrios one by one. She watched without emotion as the blonde man screamed and begged for mercy. Suddenly a tug on her heart snapped her out of the strange trance.
She shivered violently and broke wand contact with the Death Eater.
He looked crazed. "Tom, Why are we following orders from Tom instead of our Lord?" He muttered rocking back and forth. We killed the Weasel did we? Tell him we killed the Weasley boy, go on."
"Kill him." Ginny told her wand as her brothers image appeared in her mind. "As he killed my brother." She looked up and found the mans eyes. "AVADA KEDARVA!" She shouted, letting her voice echo through the lush area.
There was silence after that and Ginnys eyes regained some of the red colour they'd been possessed by when she broke free. "It had to be done. For Ron."
The tug in her heart repeated and she looked around. Draco and Truth emerged from the shadows. She stepped back shaking her head. "Stay away." She warned.
Draco looked at the lifeless form of his father and made no move towards either. Truth was hurt, Ginny could smell the blood of another Dragon. Another Dragon? She thought.
Her thought caused Draco to look up at her again; his eyes were shining with forced back tears. "Ginny, I…"
"No." Ginny whispered, silencing him. He went to move closer and she immediately moved back. "Nonononononononononono." She chanted. "Immobuluos!" She called. She dashed off, just seeing the baby dragon turn herself invisible as three Aurors apperated upon the group.
"Freeze!" They called when they got over the surprising scene. She was already long gone.
Oh damn it Gin. Draco thought.
