My thanks to:

Skimbleshanks, The Railway Cat - I read your story and reviewed but something's been wrong with my review thingy. Did my review come up? You like when Malfoy and Hermione chat huh? I tried to make Malfoy as cold hearted as possible.

Z. Riley - Who's a bastard? Thanks for the great review though made me all warm inside.

Chapter 6 - Payback pt. 2

Ambulance, fire department, police, passerby's all surrounded the area. The burnt charred black car lay in ruins before the crowd. Heavy breathing and sighs of relieve that the flames hadn't jumped to the building beside it. But were their any survivors?

"We've got a live one over here Captain," a man shouted. "Funny though when we saw him looked like his hair was on fire so we hosed him down."

A limousine drove passed the scene and the window came down slightly revealing a glimpse of silvery hair. Then the limo moved on down the block.

"So my dear," Malfoy began. "What do you think of my plan? Wasn't it just so exquisite so well though out? That's what I think but I need another opinion."

Hermione glared at him. 'He just killed two nearly innocent men well actually they would have killed me so they weren't so innocent, but still he just killed and he's happy about it fool.' She thought to herself.

"I know exactly what your thinking my dear your thinking how could somebody be so cruel? So uncaringly heartless how could that be possible? Well I have to honestly say I have no idea none at all I just am."

Hermione still said nothing.

"How come on," Malfoy nearly shouted. "You didn't even know the little bastards how can you be this stuck on them? They kidnapped you for Christ sakes."

"I felt safer with the ones that do the dirty work not the one that was afraid to. Who knows what sick and twisted things are going through your mind right now!" Hermione shouted so quickly it startled Malfoy.

Draco stared for a long while getting as much eye candy as he pleased. Hermione was quite the woman now very attractive and easy on the eyes. "You have no idea what kind of things go through my head. No idea." He finally let come from his mouth with a dry sort of tone to it.

This made Hermione uncomfortable so she brought her legs in and pulled her dress further down to cover more of her legs. She eyed Draco suspiciously but said nothing. She was trying to be as nice as possible until she could figure out how she could escape. To bad that kidnaper had taken her wand.

She thought for a moment remembering the events when she was first kidnapped. All she knew was that her kidnapper was a wizard.

"No!" Hermione shouted. In an instant she had pulled her wand from her thigh and pointed it. "Veletay incantarto!"

"Expelliarmous," Harry easily deflected the blasting charm and summoned her wand from her hands. "You were nervous. Nervous makes one easy to defeat." He said pointing his phoenix feather wand at her. "Please come with me."

She wished so badly she had her wand right now so she could hex Draco to the next century. His wand had most likely been destroyed when that man was killed by the explosion. He was surely dead the flames engulfed his body like vultures on a carcass. The other however she had no idea about.

"Don't be so quiet Hermione." Draco broke her thoughts. "We are all friends here we can talk about our problems and get them solved. What is on your mind my dear?"

"FRIENDS!" Hermione shouted. "Friends what kind of friend pays a man to kidnap his so called friend?"

"The question you should be asking," Malfoy paused to sip some champagne. "Is what kind of friend would take money to kidnap his so called friend?"

Hermione had no idea what that jerk was talking about and frankly didn't want to talk to him anymore so she let the subject drop and went on to her thoughts. Draco however smiled at how stupid Hermione was about the whole situation.

'How could she not recognize Potter and Weasly when she sees them?' he thought smiling. 'Fear and nervousness do strange things to a person.'

He smiled brighter and Hermione noticed and turned away quickly. 'Now that their dead the second part of my payback can begin. My plans are working perfectly.'

The limo cam to a stop and the driver lowered the tinted black window that separated the driver from the passengers. "We're hear Mr. Malfoy."

Hermione thought it was impossible but Malfoys smile got brighter. This filled her with a sudden jolt of fear. 'What was he thinking?' she asked herself. 'What was he going to do to me?'

"Come my dear," Draco said extending his arm to her as the driver opened the door. She reluctantly took his arm and he led her out the car. She half expected to see another run down building that he was hiding in but she found that they were at a beautiful castle like structure.

"Welcome to Malfoy Manor." Draco said waving his hand to add to the beauty of the structure before her.

"So how's he doing Doctor Phillips?" a nurse asked as she brought in some kind of liquid in a sack and began applying it to the figure lying in the bed.

Sweat drenched the figures head and gave his hair a burnt out fire look. His eyes were squeezed tightly shut. He moaned every once in a while and moved slightly but besides that he was good as dead.

"Not much better," Phillips began. "He has nearly all his ribs broken. His temperature is off the charts his breathing is slow and he might have amnesia when and if he wakes up."

"That bad huh?" the nurse responded finishing her work.

"Yes the police investigators said that he most likely wasn't close enough for the explosion to kill him but it knocked him back and he hit the concrete wall behind him pretty hard." The doctor took a thermometer from the man's sweaty armpits and shook his head sadly.

"They said he was muttering something about Harry find Harry over and over again. The police searched the area but found no other body except for his. They said if it was another person the explosion must have completely wiped him out."

"How sad," the nurse said. "That Harry guy was killed in the explosion and all. That's a horrible way to die being blow up."

The doctor nodded with agreement and the two left the room leaving Ron in the alone his life support beeping every other moment. He moved slightly and murmured some soft words from his wet lips.

"Harry…Harry…Harry…"
