Annabel (A Harry Potter Fan Fiction)

Draco's quest

Ok, so I am sorta disappointed on my last chapter's turn out. But, that is fine, because I am just starting out! I am not discouraged... Alright, I am a little discouraged. But, I refuse to stop! So, here is my second chapter! Yay! And, also, I apologize for not updating for a long time. I wanted to update, but then school started, and then cheer interfered, and stuff like that. But it is up now, so it is a time of celebration! Well, for me it is....

*Spoiler Alert*

Annabel's POV

Harry, Ron, and I were searching for Hermione on the train. As I looked throughout the compartments, I noticed a patch of bleached, blond hair. 'Great' I think sarcastically. Draco Malfoy, the biggest jerk at Hogwarts. Him and his Slytherin goons have torchered my friends since day one. Also, I hear him insult my father as well. However, that aragent git treats me completely different. In fact, I have caught him flirting with me several times. Harry has noticed it, too- but, when he does, it isn't pretty. But, Draco's attraction towards me doesn't falter my opinion on him. He is, and always will be, a jerk. Inside, and out.

Malfoy was leaning against a door, looking completely lost in thought. I could tell because his pale face was scrunched up in concentration. His hair was shaggy, which is unusual for him. He also had hi hands stuffed deep inside his pockets. I couldn't help but think he was somewhat attractive from this view.

"Hey, guy! I found her," I heardRon call from a few compartments away. I turned to look for Harry, but he was standing right behind me. He, too, was staring at Malfoy. Correction, he was glaring at Malfoy. I nudged his arm lightly, and he sharply turned to face me. As soon as he saw me, his expression softened- or maybe it was just me.

I smiled and told him, "Ron found Hermione," then grabbed a hold of his wrist to drag him to the compartment. Once we got to the room, I let go of his arm and open the door. Ron was already seat next to Hermione. I couldn't help but smirk. I knew about Hermione's crush on Ronald. I also knew about Ronald's equally evident crush on Hermione.

When Hermione saw me, she jumped up and wrapped me in an embrace. I giggled and returned the hug. "I have missed you so much, Anna! I haven't seen you all summer! How have you been?"

"I have been fine, how about you?" I respond. After that, she released me, sat back down, then started on this long rant about what happened over the summer. I sat down across from her and Harry sat down next to me, so I was nearest to the window. After awhile I tuned back into Hermione's monologue.

"-Oh, and you'll never guess who we saw while in Diagon Alley! It was Malfoy, and his parents walking into Borgin and Berks! But, that isn't the crazy part. Harry thinks that it was some sort of ritual."

I turned to Harry, who turned a deep shade of red. "What kind of ritual?" I ask.

"Harry is under the impression that Draco Malfoy has become a deatheater." she explained in a whisper. I have always assumed Draco would become a deatheater eventually because of he no-good father.

"Really?" I ask as though the idea had never crossed my mind.

"I know! I think Harry's gone completely bonkers," Ron exclaimed in a not so quite whisper. I just giggled as Harry hit Ron with a book in retaliation. Then, I started to spread out on the seat, placing my head on the window and my feet on Harry's lap.

"Well, as fun as it is to watch you two bicker, I think I am going to try and catch up on some sleep. Wake me up when we are close, will you please?" I asked Hermione. She nodded her head so I closed my eyes and entered into a light slumber.

Draco's POV

I can't believe what I have gotten myself into. I never wanted to become a death eater. This isn't me! This is all my idiotic fathers fault. If he had refused to join the dark lord, we wouldn't be in this mess.

*Flashback*

I was walking down the dark hallway to my father's old study. For awhile now, my father has let the dark lord hideout in our manor, and he holds his deatheater meetings down in the study. I have never been allowed down here, however, apparently my appearance has been requested by Lord Voldemort himself, so I had no other choice. I was so afraid. 'Why does he need to see me?' 'Did my father do something to get our family in trouble, again?' 'Will he kill me?' Questions were running around my head as I made it to the old wooden door.

"Come in, dear boy," came a snake-like voice before I could even knock on the door.

I took in a deep breath, then reached for the handle. As I turned it slowly, I tried to focus on the creaking of the door, instead of my impending doom.

"Ah, Draco, how nice to officially meet you," greeted the eerie voice as I walked into the room, at last. I bowed my head in respect, then fully looked at "the darkest wizard of all time." His face was sickly pale, and boney. His eyes were a startling shade of blood, red, but other than that, there didn't seem to be any other colors on his face. While studying his facial features, I noticed his nose- or rather lack there of. "Come, join us. We have matters to discuss," Voldemort requested.

I followed the order and waited for him to continue. I took an empty seat next to my father at a long table. All around the table were older witches and wizards with either angry/violent faces, or scared, tired faces. Deatheaters.

"Now, Draco, let's get straight to the point shall we?" I nodded and the dark lord continued. "Alright, so, do you know a female Gryfindor of the name Annabel Dumbledore?" I, again, nodded, somewhat curious to know what Anna had to do with anything. "Great! Well, 16 years ago, we uncovered a profecy acknowledging some very important information that even Annabel, herself, is unaware of," At this, he whipped his wand and a ball of light formed in the middle of the table.

"As the darl lord grows stronger, so does another. her powers, which are unknown to many, will show themselves once her and the love of her life share a kiss. These powers, when used for good, can concur all dark magic. However, if used in the hands of evil, everyone is doomed."

The crackly voice that came from the light scource Echoed throughout the room. Annabel has powers? What kind of powers? Who is the love of her life? What does the dark lord want from me?

"My plan 16 years ago, was to kidnap her and raise her as my own. But, when I got to her bedroom, she wasn't there. Apparently, someone had discovered my plan and alerted Dumbledore. He had removed Annabel from the house the night before. I torchered her parents, but they refused to reveal their daughter's location. After I killed them I searched for her, but with no success. Until one day, when I came across an article in the Daily Prophet.

"I am now aware that she has been attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Therefore, I have decided to continue my plans, but instead of kidnapping the child, I plan to... persuade her, if you will. That's where you come in, Draco. When you return to Hogwarts in September, I want you to either find out who she loves, or make her fall in love with you. If the love of her life is on the good side," he said with discust. "then you must do whatever it takes to change her mind. Make sure she doesn't kiss anyone without being positive that he is on our side."

I nodded my head, afraid to say anything. I was somewhat relieved that it was just that and I didn't have to do something crazy like kill someone.

"Oh! And, Draco, there is one last thing I must ask you to do," Crap! "In the Room of Requirments, there us an old vanishing cabinet. It's sister is located at Borgin and Botts. We need you to mend the cabinet so that later on in the year we can smuggle death eaters into the school without being noticed. After that, I need you to kill Albus Dumbledore."
