Continue story (I copy and paste from internet) - Chapter 45 - 'SAVE ME'
CHAPTER 45
“Well about time,”Draco huffed arms crossed.
“Well its not like your the most pleasant person in the world to deal with Malfoy,”Harry stated arms crossed. Draco merely rolled his eyes before leaving the room. Next thing he knew they would be expecting hugs. He couldn’t deal with this cuddley gryffindor thing, touching moments made his stomach upset.
“Hey Draco?”Neville said quietly, glancing at Draco from across the room, Neville was sitting on his bed, looking at a book. Draco, who was brooding looked up.
“Longbottom. How hard is it for you to understand the rules? Noise out of your mouth equals death.”Draco hissed. Neville either was very brave or very stupid.
“Harry, Ron, and Hermione are leaving tomorrow, don’t know if they told you, what with all the excitement today,”Neville continued. Draco’s silver eyes flashed at him.
“Well good, it’ll be more peaceful around here. Where is the Potty squad going anyway?”Draco asked.
“Harry told me it was top secret, even the rest of the order doesn’t know, something Dumbledore told him to do. He says it will lead to Voldemort’s death in the end,”Neville said. Draco frowned, a bad feeling in the pit of his stomach.
“Leaving tomorrow you say? When will they be back?”Draco asked.
“Harry said it could take months, that he might not even go back to Hogwarts,”Neville said with a sigh. Draco frowned. Oh this was not good. If he had to kill Harry, he had to do it before Harry left tomorrow, or else he would fail. Draco groaned.
“Yeah i’m gonna miss him to,”Neville said. Draco sighed.
“More than you know.” Neville sighed. Draco bit his lip looking at the ground. Kill Potter, and his mother is saved, let Potter go to kill Voldemort and his mother dies. He couldn’t pretend to even have the naive hope that Voldemort would spare his mother if Draco missed this small window. Or that Potter would kill him before his mother was hurt, it could take months. Draco had to kill Harry to save his mother. It was tomorrow, or never.
“Malfoy you okay? I didnt know you liked Harry so much,”said Neville. Draco looked at Neville.
“Me either.”
“An unfortunate loss, a blunder the order will pay dearly for. On to other matters, Bellatrix, you did the spell on Lucius’s boy correct?”Voldemort said softly,dangerously.
“Yes my lord. The boy remembers his mission,”said Bellatrix. Voldemort’s crimson eyes landed on Lucius Malfoy.
“You see Malfoy? Your wife’s life is in your sons hands. I am sure he will complete this mission and Narcissa will be returned to you.” Lucius nodded, though he didnt look confident.
“My lord, if I may be so bold as to say something,”Lucius said quietly.
“Speak Malfoy,”Lord Voldemort snapped, looking curiously at Lucius.
“Harry Potter has proven hard to kill, even you have failed twice, along with several deatheaters, his friends protect him more than he even knows, this mission is even more impossible than killing Albus Dumbledore if Draco trys and fails-“
“Narcissa will die,”Voldemort finished, a cruel look had taken over his features, “and I did not fail.”Voldemort said coldly. “I merely played with the boy, gave no effort, and he is but an annoyance to me.”Voldemort hissed. Severus looked at Lucius shaking his head at him as Lucius went to speak. Lucius ignored Severus.
“My lord, don’t you want to kill Potter yourself, rather than some low rank deatheater?”Lucius questioned.
“What I want is of no concern to you Malfoy!”Voldemort snarled.
“Really? Isn’t that the point of us all following you my lord? To acheive what you want? Well, if what you want is of no concern to us, I say we go do what we want, shag some girls, raide a few shops, all in favors?”a sarcastic voice questioned. Voldemort turned, crimson eyes narrowed in anger, Draco Malfoy stood at the entrance to the bar, a blonde eyebrow raised. Severus Snape sighed loudly, his face meeting his palms. Draco’s tongue would kill him.
“How dare you!”Voldemort snarled.
“My lord, forgive him I beg you, he is insolent!”Lucius said shooting Draco a dissaproving look. Draco merely held a chipper look, a sarcastic air about him.
“Very insolent indeed,”Voldemort hissed drawing out his wand. Lucius looked at him in fear.
“My lord- he will be punished I assure you,”Lucius said quickly.
“Right again Lucius,”Voldemort said, and paused, lowering his wand, a dark look, a merciless look crossing his features.
“Punish him then Lucius now.”Voldemort ordered. Lucius’s stoic expression dissipated he looked shocked.
“I- what?”
“Punish the boy for his insolence or I will do it for you, and I am not gentle.”
