Chapter 2

Millie, Sam, Holly, and Dobby landed outside of a large manor house. Holly lifted Dobby up to a nearby window, and they saw a more-than-nasty-looking woman pointing her wand at a screaming bushy-haired girl. Dobby's eyes wideded in fear.

"Mistress Lestrange torturing Master Harry Potter's friend! Harry Potter's friend need help now!"

Dobby grabbed on to Holly, but Sam said, "Wait! We should wait outside, just in case something goes wrong! You should go in there and rescue your friends!"

Dobby just nodded, and with a loud CRACK, Apparated into Malfoy Manor.

Harry put Griphook's hand in Dobby's, then turned around to see how Ron was doing. He was having trouble pulling Hermione out of the wreckage of the chandelier, and a sudden pang of fear struck his heart.

"Go Dobby! Come back for me later, I have to help Ron!"

"But Mr. Harry Potter sir-"

"JUST GO!"

The house-elf obeyed, and Harry rushed over to Ron. It took a few pulls, but Hermione was pulled out. Putting a hand to her neck, he breathed a sigh of relief at the pulse. A crack behind him told him that Dobby was back. Throwing Hermione between his shoulders, he and Ron ran over to Dobby, just as Bellatrix gave a scream of rage and threw her knife at Dobby. His and Ron's fingers were just inches away from Dobby's-

The knife struck Dobby's chest first, and Harry cried out "NO!" Not only had Harry lost a good, albeit strange, friend, but now their only means of escape was gone. Harry held Dobby's limp body in his arms.

"Dobby, no, don't die, don't die-"

As the elf's eyes met Harry's, his lips trembled, and he choked out "Harry... Potter…" And then the body became still.

Bellatrix cackled madly as she picked up her sister's wand and gave it back to her. "Now, where were we?"

This was it. This was where it all ended. The war was lost, and it was his entire fault...

There was another explosion, and everybody turned their heads toward the smoking hole in the wall. Harry could make out 2 silhouettes.

"Things look a little bleak? Never fear, the Eeveelution Gang is here!"

Then, "Wow, that was the suckiest dramatic appearance in the history of sucky dramatic appearances."

Harry was startled to see how strange their saviors looked, but that did not matter. What mattered was that there was now a way to escape, and that there was still a chance of winning the war.

The blue strange girl formed a blue ball in her hands, and beams came out of the ball, striking Fenir Greyback and freezing him in a block of ice.

"Come on, let's go! Millie's waiting outside!" the yellow stranger yelled, and Harry and Ron did not need to be told twice. The 2 strangers, Harry, Ron (who thankfully had managed to hold on to Hermione, even after all that happened) ran out of the hole to a 3rd stranger.

Meanwhile, Bellatrix recovered from the shock, grabbed Draco, and screamed at him, "Well, what are you waiting for? Go after them!"

Narcissa was pale, but still got angry. "Don't you dare talk to Draco like that-"

"Mother, it's okay! I'm going."

"Take this," Narcissa gave Draco her wand, and kissed him on the cheek. "Be safe, and good luck."

Draco ran outside and grabbed on to Weasley just as there was a flash of light. The group landed on a street…

"MILLIE! VEILSTONE CITY IS THE LAST PLACE WE WANT TO GO!"

"I'm sorry! I just kept on thinking about it, I don't know why!"

" Uh, guys, I think we have an unwanted hitchhiker!"

Weasley finally noticed Draco, and he kicked him repeatedly on the head until he let go. There was another flash of light, and Draco was left alone in the place called Veilstone City.
