In The Dungeon

Chapter 2

*Draco Pov*

I have looked everywhere for Hermione's wand and have not been able to find it. I have had to go multiple days without being able to take her food and clothes because this place is so massive that the wand could be anywhere. I was in the drawing room, a room that I really despised, looking around. I turned in a slow circle looking in every nook and cranny a wand could be. I stopped and looked at the floor under the shelf and there barely sticking out was a handle to a wand. That didn't really mean anything that could just be someones that has had bad luck to have been brought here. I bent down and grabbed the handle and looked at it. It had vines going up from the bottom almost all the way to the top. I knew it was hers, not only by the many times I have had the fiery brunette shove said wand in my face, but it felt familiar, as if I was near Hermione this very second. I almost smiled and shouted but I had to keep quiet. If anyone knew or had an inkling of what I was doing I wouldn't be able to help get her out of here. I slipped it into my pocket, beside my own wand and walked out and up to my room.

My mother was standing in front of my door and I noticed the bag of clothes under her arm. She turned and walked into my room and put them deep in my closet behind everything else that was in there.

"These are for her. Everything needed should be in there. I don't know when you will be able to make a run for it, but be prepared for when you can. I want both of you to escape and go back to the school. Tell everyone what is happening. Your father doesn't have any spies there yet. None of the others are willing to bring their children in until something major happens. Hogwarts is the only place you can stay safe." She whispered while looking around to make sure no one was around, even though we were in my room, it didn't mean anything. Lucius has ways to over hear anything and everything. 

"I don't even have a plan. How am I supposed to get her out if I don't even know what to do?" I whispered back while pacing back and forth.

"I can try to make Lucius plan a raid or something. I can make it to where they won't be here. I don't know what else I can do. They kidnapped the both of you. Everyone is worried, since the Holidays are now over and neither one of you have shown up. I heard that you two are the main gossip. Potter and Weasley are very worried about her and Blaise is worried about you. Remember son, I love you, and tell them everything!" She said and walked out of the room after kissing my forehead. They way she said that made it as if I would never see her again. I sighed and got a piece of parchment and a quill and wrote a note to explain everything that is going on to Hermione. She needs to know that people are trying to help and she needs to keep hope. I set an enchantment so that only she and I can read what is written. I called Tizzy and got a small amount of food. I grabbed the normal under clothes and made sure I had her wand as I headed off down towards the dungeon.

*Hermione POV*

I saw the light at the end of the hallway and a person with a hood over their head. They came in with a bundle of clothes. They opened the door quickly and threw them at me and pointed at them. I crawled, now to weak to stand, over to the clothes and found a letter and my wand inside wrapped up in the clothes. Seeing my wand I could have cried. I wasn't defenseless anymore. Even though I felt better with it, I knew I couldn't use it. It would let them in that someone had been down here. If they came back to get me I could quickly hide it in the small blanket as I have been doing with the clothes. I can now banish those, so I can hide the evidence of being helped. I quickly looked back up, hoping to see who was helping, but the person was gone. I frowned and opened the letter.

'Granger or Hermione,

I'm so sorry you had to be dragged into this. My mother and I have a plan to get you out of here along with myself. Sadly, it isn't a very solid plan at the moment, but it is better than having no plan at all, right? If you hadn't guessed yet, its me, Draco. I swear I didn't know any of this was going to happen, if I did I would have warned you. I'm sorry for how I treated you during school and before you ask yourself why I am helping, I am not someone who is going to let a friend be hurt again. You probably don't even remember me. Anyway, we can talk about that later if you want to that is. Our plan is that my mother is going to try and convince Lucius to have a raid. She has to do it in a way that makes it seems like his idea, so it make a little bit of time. After that, hopefully I will be able to sneak you out of here and get to the school and we can tell them everything. 

To keep you up to date with things going on, school started back a week ago. We have both been stuck here. Your friends are worried about you. My mother said she heard the gossip from the school. Apparently you have the whole school worried about you. So do not lose hope Granger. I will get you out of here if it takes everything I have.

If you haven't noticed yet, you will find your wand mixed up in the clothes but please don't try and get out with magic. It will just make everything harder. I know this must not make much since, but after you read this, even though it has spells to protect it, tear it up, just in case. I will bring you everything you need on the day we hopefully leave.

Keep hope Hermione, 

~Draco'

I couldn't believe it. It's been Malfoy the whole time? What did he mean me not remembering him? He mentioned us being friends, but I am sure I would remember being friends with someone who was an arrogant jerk to me during school. I will be talking to him later about that. I tore up the letter like he asked and ate the food slowly but ate all of it in a matter of minutes. I sighed and went to the farthest corner which was the darkest and changed my clothes after I cleaned up a little with my wand but not much to make it obvious. I sighed and curled up into a ball under the small cloth to keep warmth. I knew I could do a warming charm but I don't want to use magic unless absolutely needed. Now that I know that it was Malfoy helping me, I didn't want to get him caught. He was like me, stuck here against his will. He may be being treated a hundred times better than myself, but he is still a kid being held hostage. Not long after thinking about what Mal- no Draco said about the plan I feel asleep with hope for the first time in days.
