Nobody can go back and start a new beginning,
but anyone can start today
and make a new ending...
Well it was time for Draco's favorite class—transfiguration. Oh, joy. He thought as the teacher started her lesson. Draco's yes drifted to the girl next to him. Today she was wearing a Three Days Grace tee-shirt (how strange…I wonder what it means…), torn up jeans and many bracelets and necklaces. Her face showed him that she didn't even notice him. She was drawing something again, but Draco couldn't see exactly what it was. His eyes where entranced with the movements of her hand and the sheer intensity of her body towards her work.
"Ms. Drake, would you please pay attention!" McGonagall said in an annoyed tone. Draco looked yup in surprise at the name and saw that the teacher was looking at his table. His head turned to the other body there to see the girl look up.
"Sorry, wasn't listening, what'd you say?" Kari hardly stopped drawing as she said this. All eyes where on her, surprised that she would say such a thing to the teacher. Well all eyes except one pair, one pair wanted to laugh at this attitude and then commend her for not being intimidated by the icy glare she was receiving.
Draco looked at this situation and remembered the plain old teenager that he had met yesterday. The teenager that had shown him that humans did still exist in the world. McGonagall looked like she wanted to rant and rave to the girl who just sat there. Instead she gave Kari a three scroll essay on the importance of the human ear in a life.
"Alright, whatever" Kari said going back to her work as though nothing had happened in the last ten minutes. She worked for the rest of the class period ignoring the frequent stares and the boy next to her.
Prison gates won't open up for me
On these hands and knees I'm crawlin'
Oh, I reach for you
Well I'm terrified of these four walls
These iron bars can't hold my soul in
All I need is you
Come please I'm callin'
And oh I scream for you
Hurry I'm fallin', I'm fallin'
The bell had rung and Draco was walking down the hall to his next class. For some reason the halls were almost completely empty as an owl flew past Malfoy dropping a note at his feet. The boy bent down and picked up the black envelope, holing just at the corners. He opened and read quickly, his eyes getting bigger as he read. It was from a man, Montague, Voldie's new right hand man.
Show me what it's like
To be the last one standing
And teach me wrong from right
And I'll show you what I can be
Say it for me
Say it to me
And I'll leave this life behind me
Say it if it's worth saving me
The voices around Draco seemed to get louder and louder. They sounded like they where accusing him; Saying that he killed innocent people and tortured children. Yet when he looked around no one paid him any heed as the walked to their next class.
Draco lit the letter on fire and watched in burn on the floor, then scattered the ashes with his foot. He hurried down the hall and around the next corner, running smack in to something that fell on the floor. He looked down to see the one person that he wasn't excited to see. The one person he felt could look into his soul and see the real him. Those eyes haunted his darkest nightmares now.
Heaven's gates won't open up for me
With these broken wings I'm fallin'
And all I see is you
These city walls ain't got no love for me
I'm on the ledge of the eighteenth story
And oh I scream for you
Come please I'm callin'
And all I need from you
Hurry I'm fallin', I'm fallin'
"You should really watch were your going you know, you could hurt some one!" Kari said looking up from the floor. The robe that it seemed she was forced to wear was gathering around her wrists and on the floor. Draco looked down almost in shock that he had run into some one. "What your not gonna help me up? What a gentle man…"
"Umm… O, right sorry" Draco took her hand and pulled her up so she could dust herself off.
"Hmmm… you seem a little out of it… running into me and all…" Kari finished brushing herself off and looked at Draco's face.
"Haha" Draco laughed nervously and looked around. He really didn't want to talk about personally thing to her. She…well… frightened him (he was sad to admit it). She seemed so…unnatural and just plain not human.
"Alright right then… great conversation, very enlightening, lemme tell ya…" Kari rolled her eyes and started to turn around when Draco caught her arm, his eyes downcast.

"You know about Voldemort and the war and such right?"
"Haha, of course I do. Why do you ask?" Kari looked skeptically at the boy.
"What side are you on?" he asked in a hushed voice, letting go of her arm.
"Well, neither, I tend to try to stay out of these types of things. People get too worked up about them. It really all just history repeating it's self. If you want to know who wins, go open a history book." Kari had turned fully around to see the boy look at her straight in the eyes. Hmmm…that's a first…
"Hey Kari!" A familiar voice said behind Draco. The two people in the hall turned their heads to see Harry Potter, followed closely by his friends. Draco noticed that they tow behind Potter reminded him of his two side kicks. Hmmm… wonder were they are… "You shouldn't trust Deatheaters, who knows when they'll turn around and attack you, no matter how much you've done for them." Potter glared at the dark version of the Draco Malfoy he used to know.
"Well, actually I-" Kari started but was cut off by Draco.
All I need is you
Come please I'm callin'
And oh, I scream for you
Hurry I'm fallin', I'm fallin'
"You have a lesson tomorrow, see you then" Draco simply walked off after that, no fight nothing. Potter and his friends look shocked at this action, while Kari wave good-bye.
"Drakie, pray tell why I'm here?" Blaise sat whining in the library. It was 8:45; they two boys had 15 minutes to get back to their dorms. Draco figured that no one would be in the back of the library so close to curfew.
"Because I got a letter today from Montague." Draco whispered to the dark-haired boy. Blaise immediately sat up, eyes focused on Draco, a rare serious expression on his face.
"What did he want?" Blaise whispered angrily.
"I have to become a deatheater during Christmas break, or… they'll kill her" He finished in a weak whisper, feeling slightly sick. They had found her, after they tried to hide her so well, and they still found her.
"How? How did they know we she was?" Blaise looked concerned, their plan played over and over in his head. Yet he still found no flaws.
"I don't know… I just don't know any more…" Draco looked out a small window in to the dark black sky.
Just then the two hear a book be put back in place and another one being removed. They looked at each other worriedly. Who had heard them? What would they do if they did?

"You know this is the only section of the library were one can find books about old, forbidden curses." Draco knew that voice… "Yet they still don't have any information on the one I need… how sad"
Draco saw a form leaning against one of the bookcases, though due to the lighting or the lack there of, the person was shrouded in shadows.
"Now I just over heard some very…" the speaker paused as if to think of the right word, "…valuable information. I could go to the headmaster and every other authority figure around and tell them every juicy detail." It was a girl speaking, Draco was sure of it, but he couldn't place it. Was it echoing against the walls, distorting it?
"Instead of that I'm willing to make a deal" The person continued, standing up straight, but still in shadow. "You need to get this girl back and more or less disappear, yes? I can help you do. There is a catch though, I need information-"
"I won't give you any information about Voldemort or his followers" Draco cut the girl off. He wasn't going to just give in the people that had raised him, no matter how bad they were.
"Oh no, you have it all wrong, I need information about a curse, a dark one. One that seemed to have vanished from the face of the earth." The girl came out of the shadows and sat on the table between the boys. Draco's eyes widened when he saw who it was. He wondered why she would need a curse…
Hurry I'm fallin'
