These are all now late for Halloween as I have had loads of work to do and was without Internet service over the weekend. But there's nothing saying we can't extend Halloween all week, right? Enjoy!

Word Count: 200

DramioneDrabble's Halloween2011 prompt 3: vampires, portkey, boggart

Notes/Warning: little bit of horror


She was rummaging through an abandoned warehouse, tracking down a Dark artifact which her informant claimed to be here. The place was musty, ill-lit, and crawling with Dark magic.

Opening up another crate, the thing inside unfolded itself and began to reach out for her.

Hermione shrieked with absolute terror.

It couldn't be what her eyes told her it was. Even with wizard space or a shrinking charm, there was no way he could have fit in there.

Thinking of the most humourous thing in the world, she cast, "Riddikulus!"

Draco's image took on spectacles, braces, pimples, redneck boots and a ten-gallon hat. She laughed herself silly while stuffing the boggart back into its box.

Finding the item her museum wanted, she portkeyed back home, safe and sound.

"Did you find it?" a silky voice whispered in her ear as strong arms came around her.

She turned her head and smiled up at him. "Of course I did. They don't call me the best artifact hunter for nothing."

She leaned up for a kiss but stopped halfway when she saw his eyes turn red.

"That's my girl," Draco said.

Her fear became truth as his fangs descended onto her throat.
