Bet | Draco Malfoy Fanfic🍏 [Completed]

Rescue Mission

Draco's POV

It was finally time to rescue Krystal. I can't wait. I needed her back.

We all got ready before apparating. We faced the gates of the infamous Malfoy Mansion. My mansion. And I was infiltrating it even thought it's my home.

Life is shit.

We managed to get through the few weak death eaters guarding the door and quickly got in. They didn't even put up a challenge. And then as planned, we left a group there and the rest of flee to the inside. I sighed nervously. "Make sure to quickly come to us if something happens", Harry ordered. "We know what to do", Snape said through gritted teeth. "Come on then!" I said.

I was undeniably nervous. What if something goes wrong and we fail? What'll happen then? I can't fail. I can't fail her. I wanted to get this quickly over it and bring home everyone save and sound.

We entered the mansion, only to be greeted by a number of death eaters who seemed a little surprised and then started attacking. I hid and was out of the view. I watched for a while. They were all fighting each other. They weren't too hard to fight off.But of course because of all the ruckus created, the powerful ones appeared.

Bellatrix shrieked, Lucius widened his eyes and the other death eaters that came (who weren't covered with masks) scowled. The real fight began.

Bellatrix started shooting spells left and right. Same with everyone else. Sounds of glass shattering filled my ears along with groans and screams. She didn't hesitate to throw killing spells at both the teachers and the students. She gave no mercy. A ton more of death eaters finally appeared so now she was no longer outnumbered.

I looked away. I should be finding Krystal! Not watching the show. I quickly but quietly went down the stair steps and to the cell. It was quite dark so I couldn't really see we anything. "Lumos!" I quickly said.

And I saw her. She was bruised up. I immediately worried. The sight was poisonous to my heart. I gasped and she did too. She didn't seem to expect me, she looked like she was expecting someone else as she quivered in fear before seeing it was me.

I quickly tried to open the cell. Not any luck.

Fuck how was I stupid enough to forget that I should also know how to fucking open the door?!

After some time of no luck, I finally stopped. "Krystal, just stay here. I'll be right back, ok? I'll get that key somehow. Do you know who has it?" I asked, pained. "Bellatrix", she sighed sadly. She looked like she was thinking of a memory as she shivered at the thought. Though, she seemed to be relieved I was there. And that motivated me even more to get that damn key.

I rushed upstairs and looked at Bellatrix who was fighting of two teachers with a cackle.

"Avada Kedavra!" Seemed to come out of her mouth the most. Fortunately, it didn't hit anyone. I didn't know whether she had a bad aim or if the teachers were just great Dodgers. I quickly gestured Professor Flitwick who just finished attacking 3 death eaters and he thankfully saw me and approached me slyly. "What?" He asked. "Bellatrix has the key to where Krystal's in. Help me get it!" I sorta demanded. But he ignored my tone and obligated.

He quickly rushed over to fight between Bellatrix and McGonagall and Sprout before attempting to get that key. He tried the accio spell but of course that didn't work. In between fights, I don't know but he managed to inform the other two teachers about the real goal ; getting that key. They both understood and attempted as well.

It was taking forever and I was afraid someone might spot me.

"Stupefy!"

While Bellatrix finally fell, McGongall took the time to take the key and threw it over to me. Bellatrix noticed and screamed as she saw me. I widened my eyes in fear before running away to the cell to get Krystal quickly and leave the place. I could feel and hear Bellatrix following me. She threw spells at me but failed miserably. I got a headstart after all.

I reached the cell and opened it with success. I took Krystal's weak body in my arms before trying to go back upstairs. But just as we turned around, Bellatrix stood infront with a smug smile.

"Disappointing and embarrassing for a Slytherin, Draco", Bellatrix frowned. I returned the frown, and so did Krystal. "What the fuck did you do to her?!" I brought up, as I felt Krystal shift. "Nothing that'll kill her", she answered.

A mad woman she is.

She raised her wand. "Now, I don't think anyone will mind if I stop your heartbeats for...forever", she smirked. "NO!" Krystal screamed. Bellatrix smiled. "AVADA KE-"

"Petrificus Totalus!"

Bellatrix froze midway and well...paralyzed. I scoffed at the face she made. It was quite funny, really. I would've laughed if it weren't for the fact that I needed to see who casted that spells and saved our asses from death. We both looked up and saw, out of all people, Harry.

I looked over to Krystal who was smiling gratefully at Harry as she thanked him. "No problem. Now come on, we should go! Voldemort might come soon. We should go!" He ordered quickly and so we ran upstairs and as soon as we had everyone, we apparated back. Around 5 minutes after Lucius called his dark lord.

We arrived in Hogwarts save and sound, thankfully. And everyone bombarded Krystal questions regarding her bruises and her frail body. "Out of the way!" Madam Promfey yelled as she demanded them to leave the hospital wing.

I was the most stubborn one to stay. "Just let me stay please!" I pleaded but she continued to drag me away. I groaned in annoyance before looking over to Krystal who was giggling at what she saw cutely. I stopped groaning and instead showed a small smile. Once out, I could hear Madam Promfey mutter, "love".

I walked away with a smile. Not only because Krystal was back, though see seemed a little traumatized both mentally and physically. But because Umbridge was taken care of and the school was in Dumbledore's hands again. I'd never thought I was glad he was our headmaster. But I guess love changes people.
