The Dark Lord Is Not Dead: The After Effect Of Loyalty

Draco's Downfall

"MALFOY THE BLOOD TRAITOR!!!
Those were the only words in Draco's head as he and Harry walked through New York.
The thoughts made him angry but he had to keep his cool so Harry didn't worry so much.
Was it too much knowing that his own wife was alone with the Weasleys and Potters? They were a target and knowing the Death Eaters, Harry was on their kill list still even after the Battle of Hogwarts.

Draco hissed as he felt his arm stinging. He knew they were calling him, but he had made the excuse saying that he was recruiting with a few others in New York.
"Drake? You okay?" Harry called from in front of him. Draco  looked up and smiled nodding, catching up and linking his arm to Harry's.
"I'm fine, just thinking.." he said and Harry raised a brow.
"You know I hate when you lie.." Harry chuckled and Draco sighed stopping him.
"Draco, what's going on? You've been quiet since we got back to the city.."
Draco bit his lip and looked up at Harry "You already know the answer. They want me there but I've said it to them many times I've been busy. they know I'm with you." Draco felt his body tense up and he let go of Harry's arm where Harry took his hand and pulled him into a tight hug.
"We have a plan, right? We will find their main goal and stop this once and for all.." Harry wasn't even convincing himself but they had to pull through or things could go wrong.
"Albus had the vision Harry, Astoria isn't safe until everyone is. This won't end until we kill those head followers who survived the battle. There were seven of them.. we have four of them gone or dead.  Three more are out there but they're finding more daily.. if we can kill the last three? We'd be done with this."
Harry shook his head.
"The main one I'm worried about is Fenrir Greyback. I know he's after me. I plan on killing him alone." Harry had hate in that wolf man's heart and wanted to protect his wife and kids.

"Knowing Fen, he has one main hideout in New York. I don't know where it is, but I know who does.. it's a risk seeing they'll report us to him right away." Draco spoke up and sighed grabbing his wand. "He's going to kill me either way for even saying anything." He bit his lip and looked down the alley way toward the wall where Fenrir's hole in the wall could be. He spoke in parseltongue and smirked as a wall opened. Both boys went quickly into the wall and it shut behind them. Draco used LUMOS to light up the room and took a deep breath.
They both walked around the underground and saw a wolf in the kitchen where it was asleep.
"Thank Merlin it's not him.. is he even home?" Harry asked and Draco shook his head "I don't think so.. we have time to look around and find any other maps or plans for his hunt." Draco out a spell on the wolf to stay asleep as they looked around for any parchment or maps.

"Draco. Over here." Harry called out we he was at the kitchen table and opened a map which was the Hogwarts map.
"Shit.. it's Hogwarts. That's his plan? Recruit any student and offer them money?" Harry asked and draco shook his head again.
"Fenrir doesn't need money to get what he wants. He's a werewolf with manipulation in his magic." Draco hissed and sniffed the air.
"He's here. Hide." Draco grabbed Harry and pulled him into a closet hiding their scent from Fenrir who growled and walked into the halls.

"It's warmer in here.. did someone come through?" Fenrir asked and growled as he sniffed the air seeing the map opened. He smirked and made that growl kicking his wolf awake where the wolf jerked and yelped.
"Wake up mutt. Someone is here. Sniff around!" He ordered the wolf who got up and growled at the closet.
Harry thought quick and pulled his invisibility cloak out and put it around himself and Draco when the closet door swung open.
Both boys covered their mouths to silent their breathing as Fenrir's face came close to Draco's which made Draco bit his lip from fear.

"You dumb mutt, you smelt the bad odors in the closet or dead rats.. let's go!" He pulled the wolf out and they left closing the closet behind him.
Draco panted heavily from fear and Harry groaned having his back against the wall.
"Bloody Hell, that was.." Draco started.
"That was luck.. I was relieved Ron found my cloak or we'd be werewolf chow." They both laughed softly and walked out of the alley way.
Draco looked around and sighed
"He can't be far.." he hissed and they both walked into the alley way where he bumped into a couple of death eaters.
"Oh sorry!" One said and turned around with a hiss in their voice "Malfoy.." she looked up and smirked "lookie here boys! We got a traitor with the enemy!" She laughed and they all looked.

"No! This isn't what it looks like! You really think I'd work with the enemy?" Harry made himself look handcuffed with magic and chuckled putting his hands up with fake handcuffs.
"You really think I came alone though? You death eaters are truly dumb and aren't getting away with it." He growled and she walked up and sniffed his neck growling "you're lucky you don't smell like anyone is around. They'd be killed on the spot." She smirked and looked at Draco.
"Summon the alpha, we will bring Potter to him." She ordered and draco raised a brow.
"Are you really ordering the heir to do your job?" Another death eater spoke and she hissed back at him.
"He's not wrong.. tell Fen I'll meet him at the Lady.." Draco was talking about the Statue of Liberty. She hissed and nodded disappearing in her black smoke with the others and Draco bit his lip.
"Are we really doing this?" Harry asked.
Draco smirked and rolled his eyes "of course not. We need to get you out of here. I'll deal with him."
Harry's eyes went wide
"Are you crazy? You'd be marked forever as a traitor." Harry spoke and draco chuckled.
"Fenrir knows my plan.. he acts dark but he is on our side. He hated killing the mudbloods during the battle but his heart was turned black. He was manipulated at the time because muggle hunters did kill his parents without thinking that wizard kind existed. It's not their fault or his, but I had to remind him that he is home when I'm around."
Draco smiled and Harry tilted his head
"Why is he after me then?" He asked and draco shrugged "Maybe your parents did something to upset him? I don't know. But let him fight once and he'll get over himself.." Draco chuckled and Harry shook his head.
"Let's back to the hotel and we can send him an owl. We need to look convincing to the other death eaters at least." Harry said and draco nodded transporting them to the hotel room with Floo powder.

"You know it's rude to sneak into one's home without permission Malfoy.." Fenrir sat on the bed and both boys looked back. The wolf was on the floor growling at them both.
"Easy.. they're not enemies." Fenrir looked up at Draco who bit his lip.
"Y..you're not mad are you? We saw the maps. We saw the plans. Recruiting students? They're too young." Harry spoke up and Fenrir growled, getting up and put his face close to Harry's where he smirked pulling back. "You really think I was there to recruit? I was asking professor Weasley for help. I showed her the plans and what was next. She and I talked to the other professors and the only one who really stepped up was  McGonagle."
Harry chuckled to himself and facepalmed "totally forgot professor McGonagle was Defense against the dark arts professor, it's been too long since I've been over there." He sighed and nodded at Fenrir and sighed "what's your plan? I mean they're looking for you."
Fenrir smirked and looked outside at the Statue of Liberty lit up as the evening was rolling in.
"They don't know everything I have planned. They just know I'm willing to kill something or someone. So here's what we're gonna do.." he smirked and made a plan to make a muggle bloodied and dead, but it was already an Inferi.
