The Story Of Our Lives {Draco Malfoy Fanfiction}

21》 Caught (Again)

The 4 of us reached Umbridge's office. "Y/n, stay out here for lookout." Harry ordered me. I nodded and closed the door behind them. Not even a minute later, I saw Umbridge coming. I knocked on the door to let them know, but I guess they didn't hear. I gulped as she looked at me with rage. Without saying anything, she harshly grabbed my collar and burst in the room, wand ready. "We're in this together." I heard Hermione say. "That. You. Are." Umbridge said.

***

Before I knew it, Harry was sat in a chair in front of Umbridge, and Luna, Ginny, Neville, Ron, Hermione, and I were held in place by the Inquisitorial Squad. I looked down at my feet as Draco, of all people, kept his hands on my shoulder and wrist, making sure I don't do anything.

"You were going to Dumbledore weren't you?" Umbridge questioned Harry. "No." he lied. Umbridge slapped Harry across the face, not believing him. Then, Snape's sluggish voice was heard from the door. "You sent for me, Headmistress?" Umbridge looked at Snape. "Snape, yes. The time has come for answers, whether they want to give them to me or not. Have you brought the Veritisium?"

"I'm afraid you've used up all my stores interrogating students, and the last of it on Ms. Chang." Everyone stayed quiet. Snape continued. "Unless if you wish to poison him, which I would have the greatest sympathy if you did,...I cannot help you." He was about to leave but Harry spoke. "He's got Padfoot. He's got Padfoot at the place where it's hidden."

Umbridge got confused. "Padfoot? What is Padfoot? What is he talking about, Snape." Snape turned around. "...No idea." He left. "Very well." Umbridge said. "You've given me mo choice Potter. As this is an issue of Ministry security, you leave me with no alternative. The Cruciatus Curse ought to loosen your tongue."

"That's illegal." I interfered. "What Cornelius doesn't know, won't hurt him." She set the picture of the Minister face down. She was about to cast the spell until Hermione yelled. "Tell her Harry!" We all looked at her. "Tell me what?"

"Well if you don't tell her where it is, I will."

"Where what is?" The Professor started getting annoyed. "Dumbledore's secret weapon." What? But... Dumbledore doesn't have a secret weapon. What's Hermione playing at?

Luna, Ginny, Neville, Ron, and I managed to escape from the office. We met with Harry and Hermione outside. After arguing a little about whether Harry should go alone or not, we decided to go with him to the Ministry. How did we get there, you ask? We flew on thestrals. I'm able to see them because I was there when my grandmother died. Anyway, we followed Harry in the Department of Mystery, our wands lit up with the Lumos spell.

Although, instead of finding Sirius, Harry had found a prophecy.
"The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches. And the Dark Lord shall mark him as his equal but he shall have power the Dark Lord knows not. For neither can live while the other survives." it said.

"Harry!" Hermione called out, looking in a different direction. We all turned towards where her gaze was directed to, Hary in front. Someone was walking towards us. A Death Eater. "Where's Sirius?" Harry demanded. "You know, you should be able to tell the difference between dreams," the Death Eater took off his mask, revealing himself as Lucius Malfoy. "And reality." Hold on. Lucius is a DEATH EATER?! "You saw only what the Dark Lord wanted you to see. Now hand me the prophecy."

"You do anything to us, I'll break it." Harry threatened. A voice cackled from behind Lucius. "It's her! The one next to the Mudblood." ...I'm next to Hermione. "Ah, yes. Miss Jeon. What a pleasure to finally meet you. Although how unfortunate that we meet this way."

"How do you know who I am?" I asked, angrily. My grip on my wand tightened. "Oh, Draco has told me a lot about you. It seems he's taken an interest in you." I clenched my teeth. The figure from behind Lucius came out. It was none other than, "Bellatrix Lestrange." Neville said.

"Neville Longbottom, is it? How's mom and dad?" Bellatrix asked. "Better now that they're about to be avenged." Neville was about to cast a spell at Bellatrix, but Harry held him back. More Death Eaters surrounded us as Lucius continued speaking. "Now, let's, everybody, just calm down. Shall we? All we want, is that prophecy."

"Why does Voldemort need me to come and get this?" Harry questioned. "You dare speak his name?" Bellatrix whispered. "YOU FILTHY HALFBLOOD!"

"The prophecy can only be retrieved by those about who they are made. Which is lucky for you. Really. Haven't you always wondered what was the reason for the connection between you and the Dark Lord? He was unable to kill you when you were just an infant. Don't you want to know the secret of your scar? All the answers are there in your hand. All you have to do, is give it to me. And I can show you everything."

I've waited 14 years...I guess I can wait a little more. Now!"

"Stupify!" We yelled as we hit the Death Eaters and we broke into a run. As I shot spells wherever I saw a Death Eater, I eventually grouped with my friends again. "Reducto!" Ginny sent a last Death Eater flying back. But that spell made all the crystal balls start falling. We ran again, this time towards the exit. I ran as fast as my legs could take me. I couldn't and I wouldn't slow down any bit. Luckily, we were able to get out of the room. On the downside, we fell right when we stepped foot out of the room.

Death Eaters vs. The Order

We fell until we stopped right above the ground. A second later, we dropped and hit the ground. Looking around, there was some sort of veil. Whispers filled my ears. "The voices. Do you hear what they're saying?" asked Harry. "There aren't any voices, Harry." Hermione responded. "He hasn't gone crazy. I hear them." I said. "I hear them too." Luna added.

"Get behind me!" Harry ordered. I did as told and so did the others. Black clouds of smoke surrounded us. Before I processed what happened, I found myself in a tight and harsh grasp. Lucius held me captive. It's not necessary to say, but it's obvious he loathes the idea of me and Draco. Death Eaters pointed their wands at the necks of the others, except Harry. "Did you actually believe,... that you were truly naive enough to think the children stood a chance against us?" Lucius mocked.

"I'll make this simple for you, Potter. Hand me the prophecy or watch your friends die."

"Don't give it to him, Harry." I protested. "Shut up, child." Lucius warned me. Despite my saying, Harry handed Lucius the prophecy. Out of nowhere, a bright light shone, then disappeared. Lucius turned around, making me turn too. There, stood Sirius. "Get away from my godson." Sirius punched him in the face and I got out of Lucius' grasp. The prophecy fell and broke. More white lights appeared, knocking the Death Eaters. The Order had come. Remus appeared next to me. "Go get some cover." I nodded and ran to where the others were.

Eventually, it came down to Sirius and Lucius, Harry standing next to his godfather. Sirius sent Lucius flying back. "Avada Kedavra." The green sparkes hit Sirius in the chest. He disappeared through the veil and Harry ran to where Bellatrix left. How could she so carelessly kill her cousin? Then again, she's a Death Eater. Of course she wouldn't care.

***

When we came out to the main Ministry room, the was dust everywhere and Dumbledore kneeled where Harry was laying. Voldemort was there. The Minister and a few others also came out right when Voldemort vanished. "He's back." The Minister whispered. That didn't matter to me right now. What mattered was if Harry was alright.

***

Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Neville, Luna, and I were making our way to the red train, trunks in our hands. "I've been thinking about something Dumbledore said to me." Harry spoke up. "What's that?" Hermione asked. "That even though we've got a fight ahead of us," he explained, "We've got one thing that Voldemort doesn't."

"Yeah?" I said. "Something worth fighting for." Harry replied.

And so, our 5th year ended. I'm curious on what 6th year has in store for us. Guess I'll have to wait and see.
