Draco POV

"Hello?" I responded to the voice with fear and cowardice. I knew it was a mistake after it was done.

"Draco.  Tomorrow you get your mark. I don't want to hear any excuses. Got it?" The voice yelled with hostility. I knew this voice well. I hated when he yelled.

"Yes Father," I was astonished at how calm I sounded. My father was an evil man. With no emotion or regrets or even night-terrors. He had no fear.  He was too pompous for that. I despise my father. But I go by his word.

"NOW!" He screamed while I was gathering my thoughts. He meant business if he was this upset.

"I'm coming," I mumbled under my breath. Father was letting - forcing - me to get my death eater mark.

He had told me of the dark lord. The 'gracious hero' to 'our people'. Ugh. I want no part in any of this.

The Next Evening in Malfoy Manner

It was time. I knew it would happen sooner or later, but I would rather have never.

Being a death eater didn't seem like fun. It seemed like hurting innocent people on widescale and causing havoc on a rampage.

If you ask my father what he thinks of the dark lord, he would rave about him for hours on end. How I hate my father.

"Ready Draco?" My mother asked sweetly before I walked into the dining hall.

"Yes."

No.

The dark lord was uglier than I thought he would be. His nose was missing and he looked like a turtle. But at least turtles are cute. He was repulsive.

I tried not to cringe when I first saw him. But I think he noticed.

"Hello. Draco, is it?" He even sounded disgusting.

"Yes, sir," you have to be careful about what you say to people higher in power than you.

"Are you ready? To become one of the greatest, most powerful people alive?" He had a grin filled with yellow teeth and grime.

"Yes, sir,"

"Please, call me Voldemort," even his name was nasty. Moldy Voldy. Perfect.

~ The Next Morning ~

I awoke to a burning sensation in my left forearm. As I looked at it, I remember the events of last night.

The mark.

How I wanted to die.
