mudblood 34

chapter 10

" Someone yanked lily by her ponytail dragged her a short way, pushed her violently down into a sitting position, then they started binding her back-to-back with the other people When at last the man tying then together had walked away, she whispered to the other prisoners. "Anyone still got a wand?" "No." Said Draco from the side of her "This is all my fault. I said the name. I'm sorry " Draco said " Draco?" it was a new but familiar voice and it came from directly behind lily from the person tied to Draco's left " Charlie " Draco questioned almost in a whisper " it is you, you and that girl on the papers their snatchers all they want is gold "charlie said " I have lots of gold " Draco smirked sarcastically trying to put on his snobby rich pureblood act to impress his friend Charlie had dark brown hair and freckles he was a Slytherin half-blood who was the same age as her and Draco hazel had mentioned him once saying all the girls thought he was cute but lily didn't see it he also had a deep dark secret he was a werewolf.

Charlie pic " not a bad little haul for one night " greyback growled eying them " 2 truants and a good werewolf he will be dead by morning like that dead Remus lupin or whatever his name was" lily hated being reminded that the people she cared about most were dead back in her 3rd year she had enjoyed the lessons with him with boggarts he had to be her favourited defence against the dark arts professor she didn't care he and Charlie were both a werewolf " you checked their names on the list yet " he growled looking over to scabior " yeah there's no Greggory Goyle un ere greyback " "Interesting," said Greyback. "That's interesting." He crouched down beside Draco "So you aren't wanted, then, Greggory? Or are you on that list under a different name? What house were you in at Hogwarts?"," Slytherin" said Draco automatically lily could see right through Draco's smile he was scared but he didn't show it "Funny 'ow they all think we want to 'ear that." leered Scabior out of the shadows. "But none of 'em can tell us where the common room is." "It's in the dungeons," said Draco clearly. "You enter through the wall and it's under the lake, so the light's all green," Draco stuttered There was a short pause. "Well, well, looks like we really 'ave caught a little Slytherin," said Scabior. "Good for you, Greggory 'cause there ain't a lot of Mudblood Slytherins. Who's your father?" " He works at the Ministry," Draco said coughing up the remaining blood from his mouth he knew that his whole story would collapse with the smallest investigation "Department of Magical Accidents and Catastrophes." "You know what, Greyback," said Scabior. "I think there is a goyle in there." Draco could barely breathe: Could luck, sheer luck, get them safely out of this he knew goyles farther worked in that department. "Well, well," said Greyback, and lily could hear the tiniest note of trepidation in that callous voice, and knew that Greyback was wondering whether he had just indeed just attacked and bound the son of a Ministry Official. draco 's heart was pounding against the ropes around his ribs; he would not have been surprised to know that Greyback could see it. "If you're telling the truth, you've got nothing to fear from a trip to the Ministry. I expect your father will reward us just for picking you up. " "But," said lily her mouth bone dry, "if you just let us ¨go " lily was panicking she knew lucious still worked at the ministry as a very high ministry official "Hey!" came a shout from inside the tent. "Look at this. Greyback" as greyback walked into the tent "hang on a minute, Greyback! Look at this, in the Prophet,"
"Lily Leigh," Scabior was saying, "the Mudblood who is known to be travelling with Draco Malfoy after an escape," Draco heard the creak of Greybacks boots as he crouched down next to lily who was panicking but trying not to show it "you know what, little girly? This picture looks a hell of a lot like you."
"It isn't! It isn't me!" Lily managed to muster as greyback pulled at her hair.
Lilys's terrified squeak was as good as a confession. "... known to be travelling with Draco Malfoy a Malfoys son,"
"Well, this changed things, doesn't it?" whispered Greyback. Nobody spoke: Draco sensed the gang of Snatchers watching, frozen, and felt lily's arm trembling against his. Greyback got up and took a couple of steps to where Draco sat, crouching down again to stare closely at him wondering if he was truly a Malfoy. Greyback peered into Draco's grey eyes and stroked his claws through his hair for s few moments before declaring "It Is!" rasped Greyback. "We've caught Draco and the mudblood"
"Heard Draco kissed that filth of a girl Time to fly... " greyback ordered "... To the Ministry?" "To hell with the Ministry., growled Greyback. "They'll take the credit, and we won't get a look in. I say we take him straight to You-Know-Who he wants to teach him a lesson about what happens to blood traitors " lily could feel Draco's heart beating rapidly they knew this was going to end badly "Will you summon 'im? 'ere?" said Scabior, sounding awed, terrified. "No," snarled Greyback, "I haven't got " he said pointing at his arm lily and Draco knew he was talking about the dark mark " they say he's using the Malfoy's place as a base. We'll take them there." "... completely sure it's them? 'Cause if it ain't, Greyback, we're dead." "Who's in charge here?" roared Greyback, covering his moment of inadequacy. "I say that's Malfoy and him plus his wand, that's two hundred thousand Galleons right there! But if you're too gutless to come along, any of you, it's all for me, and with any luck, I'll get the girl thrown in!" The window was the merest slit in the black rock, not big enough for a man to enter... A skeletal figure was just visible through it, curled beneath a blanket... Dead, or sleeping...? "All right!" said Scabior. "All right, we're in! And what about the rest of 'em, Greyback, what'll we do with 'em?"
