Remember Me, Forever and Always

Chapter 12

Ok guys so I am going to start going by my pen name, Vanessa Carly.

Just letting you know.

Draco's POV:

I panicked.

I was surely going to die.

I never even got to tell Hermione goodbye.

I hope that she'll be alright without me.

I snapped back into focus.

"A pleasant reunion, Lucius." The Dark Lord said.

I backed away.

He saw my movement.

"Oh. It seems that the traitor is back with you, Lucius." Voldemort said.

"He is here by force. I have taken him to influence him back onto our side." My father said, looking at me.

"I will never go back to killing the people that I have grown fond of." I snarled.

Voldemort laughed.

"Boy, you think that you have a choice? A choice to stay away from us? Once you begin, you can't escape." Voldemort said.

"How are you even alive?" I challenged.

"The being that Harry killed was an innocent wizard under the Imperius Curse. He had a polyjuice potion to look like me. It was the perfect plan to fool Potter." Voldemort said, smiling.

"What do you what with me?" I asked again.

"That is up to your father." Voldemort said.

"Hopefully something grueling, to teach you to never leave our side again." Voldemort said, disappearing in a small puff of smoke.

My father turned to me, smiling.

"Let's get started." He said.

He flicked out his knife and advanced towards me.

I shut my eyes, willing myself to not cry out at the pain.

However, as soon as the knife blade pierced my skin, I cried out in agony.

The pain was excruciating.

After what seemed like hours of the knife carving my skin, I felt the blade being pulled out from under my skin.

I opened my eyes.

My arm was covered in blood.

My father had spelled something on my arm.

It said "traitor".

My father stepped back and smiled at the result.

I began to feel dizzy.

I stumbled and fell to the floor, the world becoming dark.

Hermione's POV:

I had spent the last couple hours wandering the streets and alleys, looking for Draco.

I figured that by this time, his captors had taken him into a building.

I suddenly had an idea.

I apparated back to my house.

I wrote Harry a quick note, since I was supposed to meet him and Ginny for lunch at one to go over the details.

Harry,

I decided to go look at the Malfoy Manor for Draco.

If I don't come back by 6:00 tonight, come to the building, but do not try to come find me.

Sorry,
Hermione

I sighed.

I apparated to Harry's apartment and placed the note on his front door.

I then apparated to the Malfoy Manor.

I quietly opened the front door and stepped inside.

I scouted the halls before going down one that seemed to lead to the basement.

I tiptoed down the hall before coming to a door.

I opened it.

A flight of stairs led down.

I progressed quickly and quietly down the stairs.

I came to a door at the bottom.

I opened it.

I gasped.

I had come upon a room with none other than Lucius Malfoy in it.

He jumped up and started toward me.

I was frozen.

He grabbed my arm.

I meekly followed him.

He led me to another room.

It had Draco in it.

I gasped.

He was crumpled on the floor, blood covering his right arm.

Lucius forced me into a chair.

He tied my ankles around the legs and tied a rope around my chest tightly.

I began to panic.

If Draco or I didn't make it, neither could live without each other.

So.

You probably didn't like this update.

Well, it will all work out in the end, my little dumplings.

Idk.

Anyway, bye.

Lots of love and Potter vibes, Vanessa
