A For Short

Chapter 5

"Ana!" Dad came into my room. "Someone would like to meet you downstairs."

"Who?" I asked.

"Now why would I tell you?" He smiled. I smiled back and followed him down the stairs of the Malfoy Manor. I felt my body grow cold. I saw Mum talking to Aunt Bella in the Living Room.

"Hello, Ana." Mum greeted. I nodded in agnknowledgment. Dad continued walking until we reached the Dining Room area. I saw a man with no hair. The back of his head looked almost blue. I instantly got the shivers. The man turned around and his face made me want to throw up. It was pale with slits as his nose. His eyes looked almost red around the outside. It made me sick. This must be Voldemort. The man my dad served. The Dark Lord. The one I must serve now.

"My Lord, this is my daughter."

"She is very beautiful."

"Thank you." Dad said. "You said you wanted to talk to her?"

"Give us a moment, Lucius." Voldemort said. My Dad smiled weakly and walked out.

"Wait!" I called after him. I ran over to him, led him to a corner, and gave him a hug. I let go. "Why are you doing this?"

"To protect us." He hissed.

"This," I said pointing back to the Dining Room. "is not protecting us."

"Do you want to be killed?" He asked. I shook my head. "What about Draco or Mum or me? Do you want us killed?" I shook my head. "Then you better listen to him."

"Dad, please." He gave me a kiss on the top of the head.

"Everything will be okay." He said. "Now go." I walked away and back into the Dining Room feeling a little more brave.

"Anastasia," Voldemort greeted. "I have waited until you have come of age."

"I'm sorry? I'm only 14, My Lord."

"To be my servant you only have to be 14, Ana." I nodded in understatement. "As being the daughter of my most faithful servant, Lucius, I have a very difficult task for you." He walked towards me. "You must befriend Harry Potter and help me with my plan." Soon he was right in front of me. "Ana, can you do that?"

"Yes, My Lord." He smiled.

"Good because if you fail, you will pay."

"Yes, My Lord." I answered.

"It was right in here." Harry said walking fast through the prophecy room. We all tried to keep up with him.

"Harry? Is there someone over there?" Neville asked in a scared tone. We all stood still and held our breath.

"Where's Sirius?" Harry asked coming out in front of the group of us.

"You know, you should really learn the difference between dreams..." I smiled. I knew that voice. The Death Eater took out his wand and wiped it across his face so you couldn't see the mask. His long blonde hair fell down. "And reality."

"Father!" I exclaimed running to Lucius Malfoy and hugging him.

"Ana, you did a great job bringing them here."

"Thank you!" I grinned and faced Harry and his friends.

"This was a trick, Ana?" Ginny asked alarmed.
