Chapter 8

A month later Jade was walking through the corridor when someone grabbed her and pulled her into an empty classroom. Turning around she saw someone she didn't expect.

"Draco what the hell are you doing?"

"Just came to give you an option since I still haven't gotten through to you."

"I know what you want and the answer is still no."
"Just listen or your decision could kill one of your friends."
"Fine. What do you want?"
"What I wanted last time. I am now ordered to give you a choice. You either become a death eater or I will kill your friends. The last one I kill will be Potter and I'll make you witness his death. So I ask you what is your choice now." Draco asked cruelly.

Jade stopped and thought about it. She didn't want to be a death eater but she didn't want to be the cause of her friend's deaths. She pondered over it for a minute and finally came to her hard decision. "Fine ferret. You win." She said defeated.

"Good come with me and don't even think about going back on your word now. You have sealed your fate."

He took her to Professor Snape's office and told Snape that one of his missions had succeeded. "Well Jade I can't say how happy I am you finally came to your senses and joined the winning side." Professor Snape said tauntingly.

"Not like I have much of a choice Snape. Become a death eater or be the cause of my friend's death. So here I am you traitor."

"You got guts Miss Malfoy. You won't be given a dark mark for you will be used as a spy. You will report any information directly to me and no one else. Go back to your dormitories both of you and speak to no one of this." Snape said dimissively

Jade and Draco left his office and Jade turned to Malfoy. "Just so you know dear brother of mine I HATE YOU!" she said before running to her common room. She sat in her favorite chair and thought about her new problem. Harry and Ron came in from quidditch practice and she pulled Harry away from everyone else to talk.

"Harry I can't explain but I got to give you the ring back. I'm sorry and I love you but I just can't explain." She said quietly.

"Jade tell me what's wrong."

"I can't. Please understand."

"Jade Black tell me right now before I go and tell Sirius you're acting weird."
"If I tell you will you promise not to tell anyone else?"

"I promise. What's up?"
"Voldemort wants me to be his spy and I had to agree. I'm sorry but don't hate me."

"Jade why would you agree to something like that?"
"To save you and our friends."
"Why would you want to do this just to save me and our friends?"

"Don't you get it Harry? I'd do anything for you and anything to save our friends. Don't do anything stupid and I'll try to pass information to you. Don't tell anyone else." Jade asked quietly.

"I won't tell anyone else." Harry lied to her.

That was the end of that. Jade went to her dormitory and fell into a restless sleep.

AN: Was that something you expected to happen? Anyway I think one or two more chapters will finish up this story. Please R&R. Take care of yourselves.
