Draco's POV

I walk into the court, already filled with witches and wizards who will decide my fate. I see Harry sitting alone at a table in the front of the room. He looks nervous and I can't help but smile slightly at his focused gaze.

I see Pansy sitting with the flood of others who came to watch. Multiple are scowling at me and smirking. I see very few people who appear to be on my side. I gulp  anxiously as they bring me to my seat. The chair automatically wraps metal cuffs around my wrists and legs, forcing me to sit still.

I try to see who could be performing the spell but I can't see anyone. I bite my lip terrified whoever it is will not show up. I am in luck, however, when I see Neville walk through the door, followed by a few tough looking wizards. He is sat down across from Harry and he glances in my direction, smiling encouragingly.

The judge begins to drone on about the trial and what it will consist of. I space off, looking into the crowd for supportive faces. I see Luna Lovegood, smiling down as if we are best friends. Sitting directly next to her is Lavender Brown, and from what I can tell, they seem to be holding hands.

Finally it is time for the spell. Neville stands in front of Harry and closes his eyes. He points the wand at Harry's chest and says under his breath, "Praeteritum Erinnerun." A maroon colour floods from his wand and goes into Harry's chest.

Harry gasps, falling forward onto the table in front of him, and a cloud of grey smoke erupts from his head. Harry passes out as the memory plays.

It is extremely vivid. You see Nott standing above him, using spells to torture Potter. You can see the cloud shake and grow red when he was in pain. It is like watching an action movie play out. You hear Nott say "Mortem Koma!" While flailing his wand around. The memory fades to black.

Harry doesn't wake up for the rest of the trial, which lasts about an hour more. I admit to using an unforgiveable on Theo and am raised for honouring their great hero.

We make it back to Hogwarts and go to sleep.


A/N Again, sorry for the shitty chapter and short chapter. I have had pretty bad writers block. I hope this isn't as horrible as I believe it is. I created the spells, which is why they aren't creative. Just translated words. :) Please comment any opinions or ideas. It feels amazing to see my readers interact with eachother and create theories! ~Love Aly<3
