Previous Chapter:
"I know of a safe place for us to go, follow me when we get out," Remus said before he turned into his wolf form and bound into the tunnel, James, Sirius and Lily following, Draco paused to sadly glance at the three spectres in his doorway before turning and running after the four animagi, the wall falling back into place behind them
"This will all end well, he has allowed another to care for something he values more than his own life while caring for another human being himself, I believe he has begun to thaw his frozen heart," Flitwick said, Minerva and Snape nodded in agreement just as the sound of the large wooden doors that were the front door of the castle groaned and splintered under the onslaught of spells hitting it, the three spectres fading back into the magic surrounding the castle
Victor snarled as he stormed into the last room of the castle to check, the room Harry himself had been occupying just moments before, but upon seeing it empty he yelled in anger and fury, grabbing the first thing closest to him he flung it across the room where it shattered with a crash against the wall with the paintings, causing the one of Narcissa to fall to the ground
Whirling around at the sound Victor frowned at the portraits in question before moving closer to see them better, but seeing nothing of interest there he turned with the intent to leave the room but was stopped by the appearance of a spectre right in front of him
"Are you the one searching for the Potter boy?" the spectre spoke with a haughty drawl, Victor frowned turning slightly to look between one of the portraits and the spectre before him
"And what if I am? I assume you are Lucius Malfoy, the old Lord of this here castle," he replied
"That would be correct boy, however I do not know your name, but that is of little importance, that Potter brat is currently trying to escape this castle, away from you who I am sure would be a fitting influence on the poor child," Lucius smirked giving a small bow
Victor feeling flattered stood a little straighter, "It's true that I wish to help young Harry, if you would be willing to tell me where they will leave I would be willing to take him from the hands of whatever has taken him and keep him under my wing, I'm sure a regal Lord as yourself would not want him sullying your castle any longer than necessary," he grinned back giving a small bow in return
Before they could continue Narcissa appeared beside Lucius, eyes frantic, "Lucius no, I will not allow you to let harm come to that child, he's..." she was silenced by the icy glare Lucius sent to her as well as his tight grip on her spectral arm
"Narcissa remember your place, we wouldn't want for you to embarrass yourself in front of company, now leave us," he hissed at her before forcefully sending her from the room, her scowl the last thing he saw before turning back to Victor. "Sorry about that, my wife can be a little emotional at times, as I was saying if you will follow me I'll point you to where they will emerge when they leave the castle, sadly I cannot show you an ancient spell prevents me from leaving the confines of this castle,"
Victor smiled, "Then let us make haste," he said while motioning with his hand for Lucius to lead the way
Harry held on tight to the front of Draco's shirt as they ran, eyes wide in fright as the sounds of banging and shouting echoed down the hall from within the castle, watching his newly found parents running before him he almost missed the silvery glow forming before them, but when he did he froze in Draco's arms causing him to stop and look down at Harry
"Harry, what is it?" he asked, Harry didn't answer but he lifted one hand to point at the slowly solidifying form before them, by this time James, Lily, Sirius and Remus had also stopped noticing that Draco and Harry were no longer behind them
What at first had been a small silvery ball had grown and was painfully taking the form of a tall woman with pitch black hair and silver eyes
"Mother?" Draco gasped, eyes wide in shock, the spectral figure smiled
"Yes my dragon, it's me, I'm sorry I can't last for long, Dumbledore placed a spell on me and your father preventing us from being in the same room as you and from leaving this castle, I'm doing my best to fight it but I have to warn you, your father has told that boy Victor where you'll be leaving the castle, you'll be walking straight into an ambush, I want to . . . apologise . . . " Narcissa's image began to flicker as the strain on her became too much, Narcissa smiled at Draco, noting the tears forming in his eyes, years before they wouldn't have been there. "I love you . . . dragon . . . keep Harry safe . . . good for you . . . goodbye . . ." her image flickered once more in finality before it died, a small platinum brooch falling to the floor where Narcissa had previously stood, the heirloom the grounding point for her magic and now that it was gone, she was no more
Draco stood there in shock, tears slowly falling down his face, Harry looked up when one landed on his face and seeing the devastated look on Draco's face he reached up and wrapped his arms around his neck, using Draco's shock to allow his feet to fall back to the ground and stand properly as he hugged him. Draco gave a small sob and gently wrapped his own arms around Harry's waist as he cried out his sorrow
James bent down and reverently picked up the brooch, it was formed in the shape of a dragon curled around a narcissus flower, sadness in his own eyes before turning to Draco
"What shall we do Draco? Your mother gave her life to warn us of the treachery of your father, when we leave his tunnel Victor and his gang will be waiting for us, we cannot go back and yet we cannot go forward, what do you suggest we do?" he asked holding out the brooch to Draco
Draco looked up from where his head had dropped to Harry's shoulder and reaching out gently took the brooch from James
"We go forwards, now that we know he will be there waiting we can foil any trap he has placed to capture us, it will be us who take him by surprise, I will not let him harm your son again, I pledge my life on that," he growled softly, silvery eyes looking like frozen ice with the determination that showed within them, pulling back slightly from Harry he gently placed the brooch on the collar of the shirt he was wearing before gently grasping his hand and turning back to the others, "Let's go," And again they set off down the tunnel but this time with Harry running alongside Draco easily
After almost another 20 minutes of running they finally reached the exit, which took the shape of a cavern behind a waterfall, there's was no one waiting for them there so thinking that Victor was waiting for them outside the waterfall they paused to catch their breath
"Harry I want you to wait here for now, we'll go out and knock them all unconscious and when you hear us call come out and we'll escape, no arguing son," James said, Lily smiled at the pout on her sons face and moved to stand in front of him, gently she placed the glass case in his hands and gently pried him away from the four men who were now planning how best to surprise Victor
"Harry, I need you to look after this please, keep it safe for Draco, we won't be long I promise," she smiled softly, gently placing a kiss to his forehead
"Alright mum, but come back safe please, I've only just gotten you back," he asked, gently holding the case to his chest, Lily nodded before they both turned when Sirius called their names
"Okay the plan is, me and Remus will jump out first in our animagi forms, they don't know about us so won't be expecting it, then Lily, James and Draco will follow taking down those we haven't yet, remember just knock them unconscious, no killing of any kind," he said with a pointed look at Draco
"I can't promise anything, I'll try but if Victor tries anything, he's mine," Draco growled seeing the others nod they all turned to face the waterfall as Sirius and Remus changed and bounded through
Harry ran forward and quickly grabbed Draco's hand to get his attention, "You be careful out there Draco, there's something I need to tell you when this is over and it won't do if you're hurt in any way when I tell you, deal?" he asked with a small frown on his face, Draco smiled in response and gently squeezed his hand
"I promise to be in one piece when this is over and done with," seeing the smile that bloomed on Harry's face made him want to keep that promise even more and he blushed when Harry stood on his toes to press a small kiss to his cheek
"You better," he smiled before returning to the back of the cavern to wait
Draco turned to the waterfall again and seeing that Lily and James had already leapt through he changed into his own animal form and jumped through as well
Landing in the centre of the clearing he froze as he saw Lily, James, Sirius and Remus caught beneath some kind of golden net that pulsed with magic, because of this he didn't sense in time the net that was falling on himself before it was too late and he too was caught beneath a net of gold, as it touched his skin it burned and he could feel the magic running through the wires trying to strip him of his magic
Suddenly a loud laughing bean to fill the small clearing and Victor Krum stepped out with Ron and Hermione behind him, Hermione's wand raised and trained on Draco, telling that it was her who had cast the netting spells
"Oh this is beautiful, truly beautiful, five beasts caught in my nets, five beautiful pelts to carpet my new home," Victor grinned happily, moving to stand beside Draco he swiftly kicked him in the side, causing him to growl in pain
"And I have the true beast where he belongs, beneath my feet, now all I need is my new spouse Potter, who will bear me many children, strong boys, but first he will need to be taught his place so I'll be 'teaching' him how best to please me and why he will never disobey me, I'll start with binding his magic, he's not going to need it, and then I'll keep him tied up in my room for my pleasure until I'm positive he's broken and will never try to fight against me again, then I'll take him to see Madam Pomfrey and Snape, I'll tell them that you were the one who hurt him and they'll heal him and make him suitable to bear my children, which he will do willingly by that point, but first I'm going to kill you, can't have him hoping you'll save him can I?" he grinned maliciously, raising his own wand he pointed it directly at Draco
"Farewell beast, AVADA . . ."
I was going to be cruel and leave it there but I thought you deserved a treat with how long it's taken me to update so the next chapter will be up today as well, enjoy
