Chapter 11 – "That's the last time…"
Everyone looked up from what they were doing and faced the door. Hermione got up and walked over to the door. She said a little prayer that it wouldn't be who she thought it would. She turned the knob and pulled back the door. When she saw who was standing in the door, her mouth dropped open.
"It's nice to see you to, Granger." Malfoy said with a coy smile. Hermione mumbled something inaudible like, "Well it isn't nice to see you…" but Draco seemed not to pay attention. "What are you doing here?" Harry asked, getting up from where he and Hermione had been sitting.
"I've come to get Hermione, my father and I have some unfinished business with her. " Draco drawled with a fake smile at Hermione. He walked over and grabbed her arm forcefully, causing her to squirm in pain. "Let go, I know what your father wants to do, he wants to kill her! Let me tell you Malfoy, it's not going to happen." Harry shouted, pulling out his wand and pointing it at Draco.
Draco shook his head with a little smile, "You hurt me, and I hurt her. It is quite simple, Potter. Need me to explain it in a more visible way?" With that, Draco kicked Hermione hard in the thigh causing her to collapse in a trembling heap on the ground. "How dare you!" Harry yelped and lunged at Malfoy, punching him square in the nose.
"AVADA KEDAVRA!" Harry boomed. The green light shot at Malfoy, who now lay motionless and cold on the ground. "That's the last time I will ever use that curse." Harry stated, refusing to look at the body anymore. Harry walked over to her and knelt down, she was still shaking. "Are you okay?" he asked quietly. "Now I am." She replied looking up at him with a smile.
Blaise removed the body and no one really cared where he put it, to be quite frank. Everyone was kind of shocked he had showed up, but Hermione knew exactly why Draco had. Lucius Malfoy had wanted to kill her for talking back to the Dark Lord. Hermione shuddered a little, remembering that night.
