Green for Envy | Draco Malfoy x y/n

§ㅅ26ㅅ§

The room hummed eerily, there was a black flash to my left in my peripheral, so I strained my neck so see but there was nothing there. 

Theres a deep rumble and we turn around as the door behind us slides. My breathing got heavier, my heartbeat louder in my ears. And the ringing, the ringing got louder as if I was at the bottom of a pool.

We turn to Harry as he walks down the corridor of crystal balls, whispering under his breath "92, 93". His pace is so brisk that we have to sustain an awkward jog just to keep up with him. "94..." We stand still, his pace becoming to fast for us to catch up.

"95..." he stops and looks at the floor, pointing his wand to get a better look under the light. He looks frustrated, he looks over at me. I walk up to him and look at where he is looking "It should be here." "This place, it's the same." I whisper.

"Harry" Neville says, I turn to see him looking at a shelf. "It's got your name on it." Harry drops his wand to his side and slowly walk towards Neville. The whooshing of the crystal ball Neville was looking at got louder each step Harry took towards it.

Harry extends his hand towards the crystal ball, he hesitates and turns towards us before turning back and continuing reaching for the peculiar orb. 

He grabs it and holds it up to eye level. I hear a raspy voice -and by the look on Harry's face- one he recognised. "The one with the power," it said, "To vanquish the Dark Lord approaches." Spooky.

"And the Dark Lord shall mark him as his equal, but he shall have power the Dark Lord has not." We look at Harry as his eyes became wilder. "For neither can live while the other survives." The voice whooshes away.

"Harry!" Hermione says. I turn to see a figure with a mask, thats not good, not good at all. Harry storms in front of us, determined to protect us from harm if the being decided to strike us, an unrealistic expectation but sweet nonetheless.

As the being walks closer towards us, I could see more details on the mask as our wands' Lumos made it brighter. 

"Where's Sirius?" Harry asks, his feet shifting underneath him as his nerves rise. "You know, you really should learn to tell the difference between dreams..." The mysterious being says, reaching for his wand. He unsheathes it and waves it over his face and removes his mask.

"And reality." Lucius. "You saw only what the Dark Lord wanted you to see." "No" I whisper under my breath. "Now, hand me the prophecy." He says.

"You do anything to us, I'll break it." Harry says. Cackling echos throughout the hall. "He knows how to play!" Bellatrix says, my second auntie. "itty, bitty, baby, Potter." she chuckled again, the wild gleam still in her eyes.

"Hi Auntie" I looks at her and pout "You've grown up so much." I wipe my eye with a fake tear. She runs up to me and holds her wand to my chin. I instantly regret my taunt and swallow my pride as she grits her teeth. 

"Bellatrix." Lucius warns, barely needing to raise his voice for her to pull away. 

"Bellatrix Lestrange." Neville says. Bellatrix turns to him "Neville Longbottom, how's mum and dad?" The blow was low, but Bellatrix wasn't the kind of person to think of that. "Better now that they are about to be avenged!" He launched towards her, wand at the ready.

I make no effort to grab him, entertained by what might happen but Harry other ideas. "Now, lets everybody just calm down." Lucius says, pushing his hands down slowly, as if he was cooling down the energy himself.

"Shall we?" Neville lowers his wand "All we want, is that prophecy." the smooth tones of Luciuses voice were unnervingly familiar, close to Draco's, the thought made me shiver.

"Why did Voldemort need me to come get this?" Harry asks. "You dare speak his name?" Bellatrix says, I think dad mentioned something about her having a thing for the Dark Lord. Strange taste in men then.

"You filthy half blood!" She shouts at Harry, obviously they weren't pro mug-bloods if they were not even pro half bloods. The words showed how filthy her teeth were, just as my father's was when I met him again for the first time in years.

"It's alright, he's just a curious lad, aren't you?" I look around to see more and more masked men spawn out of seemingly thin air, Lucius continues speaking but I'm more concerned about the people surrounding us.

Then the world began to shake.
