Continue story (I copy and paste from internet) - Chapter 40 - 'SAVE ME'

CHAPTER 40

Harry looked like a fish out of water. His mouth opened and closed several times as his eyes darted from Neville to McNair’s dead body. Harry looked to the others, to see if he was going mad, or if they all saw it too. Draco's lips involuntarily twitched into a smile. Ron hit Harry.

"You seeing what i'm seeing mate?"Ron hissed in question, eyes wide. Harry nodded slowly. Fred and George exchanged looks.

"This is the last time I test one of our products on myself George,"Fred announced. George nodded in agreement. Neville stared at them as if they had all gone crazy.

"Well either i've had to much to drink, or not enough,"Draco stated a blonde eyebrow raised.

"Neville?"said his grandmother unsurely, staring at Neville as if expecting him to also turn into a deatheater.

"Gram? What are you doing here?"Neville said looking at the old woman in concern. She hesitantly took Neville's hands in her own.

"They told me you had died!"she wailed. Neville put on a fake annoyed look.

"I'm gone five minutes and you lot declare me dead? Nice to see you all have faith in my fighting abilities,"Neville said.

"It's not that we, we saw you dead,"Harry said. Neville looked at Harry as if he had lost his marbles. Harry was beginning to think maybe he had.

"You saw me dead,"Neville said slowly looking at Harry in disbelief.

"I- we all did,"Harry said looking at the others for back up.

"Then you turned into McNair,"said Hermione. Neville looked at the deatheater.

"Right,"said Neville sounding as if he disbelieved him. Mad-Eye limped over, now recovered from his injuries from earlier, examining the body.

"It must have been a pollyjuice,"He announced.

"See!"said Harry in desperation to prove is sanity, "He looked like you and we, we thought you were dead and your not,"said Harry lamely.

"Well said Potter,"Draco said.

"Shut it Malfoy."

"Why don't you make me saint Potty?"

"Enough!"Hermione snapped at the two giving them dark looks. Neville's grandmother was hugging him tightly.

"Well, if Neville wasnt dead just then he's going to be at this rate, the bloody woman is going to sufficate him to death,"Ron stated. Hermione shot him a dark look her honey brown eyes reduced to slits. Ron fell silent.

"Thank god,"Neville's gram said, and repeated it several times as Neville struggled for air, and finally he was released, and pulled off by his gram to be pampered. Harry walked back over to Tonks putting a hand on her shoulder, her eyes held a small hope, perhaps maybe, maybe Lupin was a deatheater to, though it was highly unlikely.

"He will have a dam.n good funeral,"Harry said voice cracking slightly. Draco slipped out of the room, to much drama. He never hated Lupin, but he never particularly liked him. Than again he was Draco Malfoy, Draco Malfoy didn't like anyone, Draco Malfoy didn't need anyone, Draco Malfoy was a stupid idiot who just possibly changed the future. Draco slumped into an empty chair in the kitchens staring at the table.

"Good job Malfoy, you saved one life, now you get to destroy one. Potter's. Either him or your mother,"Draco said and he groaned. He swore. "Great, i'm talking to myself. Wonderful i've completely lost my-"

"Who are you talking to?"

Draco turned quickly to meet the eyes of Ron.

"No one,"Draco said stiffening slightly, had Weasley heard? He was so stupid!

"You said you completely lost your than you stopped, continue I want to hear the rest,"Ron said eyes lit up in amusement. Draco relaxed slightly, it seemed Weasel hadn't heard.

"Nothing,"Draco said again, eyeing Ron like a tiger would its pray. Most people felt nervous under this look, Ron was either to brave or to stupid.

"Can't believe Neville's actually alive, lucky eh?"Ron said. Draco nodded slowly and frowned.

"Weasley no offense, but you hate me. Why are you making with the small talk?"Draco asked slowly.
