Chapter 2. Coldness Comes...
Professor Snape was about to finish marking a potions test, when some sort of struggle outside of his office reached his ears.
Cautiously Severus grabbed his wand and made his way to the door, he reached out a steady hand and grabbed the handle before opening it swiftly.
What ever Snape was expecting, wasn't there, instead an ill at ease coldness and a layer of mist was outside his door. Snape's black eyes widened as he saw a crumpled figure that he recognized, at his feet.
Draco's once tame blond hair was now disarray and a small trickle of blood from his lips showed Snape nothing was right. The Professor quickly gathered the boy in his arms and brought him into his office.
Snape laid Draco on the floor and felt for his favorite student's pulse; it was erratic. Snape looked at Draco's wrist someone or something had grabbed it with so much force its claws had pierced the skin and blood seeped onto the marble floor. Quickly the potions master grabbed and bandaged it to slow the flow of the crimson liquid.
Severus peered outside his office for a culprit, "What did this to him?" he murmured shaking his head. Severus Snape turned back to the young Malfoy, who, to his shock was writhing in pain, something was happening. Snape grabbed a potion of a shelf and read the label.
'Tranquille Anima'
"Perfect" Snape murmured as he swept to Draco's side as his cloak billowed behind him. After a few seconds of struggling, Snape finally forced the lip in the vial onto Draco's trembling lips, then after a pause got some of the thick silver liquid down Draco's throat but only just before one of his flailing arms hit the bottle, smashing it a few feet away.
Snape moved back and watched as slowly Draco stopped moving and his breathing slowly returning to a normal pace.
But still Draco didn't wake. This worried Snape.
After Severus also calmed his heart, he whispered an S.O.S
"Ornamentum" a silver snake crept out of his wand and slithered in the direction of Madam Pomfry's dorm.
Snape watched the young blond with his dark eyes. Draco lay ultimately still but the odd twitch told Snape something was still terribly wrong.
Madam Pomfry heard a hiss and a sharp pain stabbed at her ankle, she sat bolt up and starred in annoyance at the sliver of mist that took a form of a snake.
It belonged to Snape; it meant an emergency so she quickly prepared herself for the worst.
Dumbledore met Madam Pomfry as she waddled down the hall, "Something's Wrong" she murmured, "He never calls for help".
"I know," answered Dumbledore simply trying to hide his own fears, "let us be prepared for anything".
Dumbledore felt the nurse tense up as they neared the door. "Stay calm," he said, they turned the corner to see Snape leaning against a shelf gazing at something. The two followed his dark stare to Draco. Madam Pomfry sighed with relief and went to Draco who was shaking all over as if in shock.
Dumbledore walked towards Snape, "What happened?"
"I found him outside of my office... it sounded as if something attacked him... something's wrong" murmured Snape looking uneasy.
Dumbledore looked again at the boy.
"I gave him some Tranquille Anima to calm him... but not much" Snape told Madam Pomfry who was worried why Draco was starting to twitch and make small movements "It'll wear off soon so be careful".
Dumbledore looked at the smashed remains of the liquid, "How long would it take to make more?" asked Dumbledore.
"About 5 minutes" answered Snape sighing,
"Then lets get started," murmured Dumbledore.
Soon the two returned with the liquid, it's deep silver color made it look like mercury... just like the blonds eyes. Snape breathed a sigh but it was short lived as a little whimper reached the two's ears.
The two men quickened their pace and both of their eyes widened at what they saw next.
Draco was once again writhing on the ground as Madam Pomfry tried to hold him still. Suddenly a blood-curdling scream escaped the boy and he curled into a compact ball trying to escape a strange presence in his mind.
"Draco!" yelped Snape running to his godson's side...
