I press myself up against the wall. My wand in hand and ready to fight. Astoria, Marcus, and Adrian are all close behind me. A stray spell flies past me and shatters against the end of the hall.

"We gotta advance" Adrian whispers to the three of us.

I nod and crouch before slowly walking towards the source of the spells.

We had gotten word that some of our Deatheaters had been taken and kept captive in the Order safe house we were in now. Our mission was to save every Deatheater.

I'm blindsided when I'm shoved up against a wall with a wand to my throat. All wands point in my direction ready to blast whoever it is off me.

"That's a bit dramatic" I smile up at him through my Deatheater mask.

He lowers his wand and steps back "you're an idiot"

"I'm the brightest witch of my age how can I be an idiot?"

"More like the dimmest"

"You wound me you really do"

"Who is that" Marcus exclaims interrupting my conversation.

He pulls his hood off showing the shock of red hair that covers his head. "Fred Weasley not a pleasure to see you again"

I roll my eyes at his way of reintroducing himself.

"Now back to the topic at hand, Hermione you need to get the heck out of here right now." Fred says turning to me.

"Why just me I'm perfectly capable of handling myself"

"Rabastian is here and if he finds out any of you are here he'll kill you"

Just then Fred is grabbed from the back of the shirt and thrown to the other end of the hallway where he crumbles to the ground.

"He's right I will" Rabastian says standing in front of us.

Marcus, Adrian, and I all step up and stand in-front of Astoria.

"How sweet all of you protecting the youngest one" Rabastian sneers.

I slowly start to raise my wand so I can apparate away all the other do the same.

"Expelliarmus"

My wand flies out of my hand along with everyone else's.

"How stupid do you think I am" he scoffs before rocketing forward and grabbing Adrian. He holds his wand to Adrian's throat while holding him against him.

"Now start walking where I tell you before I blow his head off. Go forward"

We start walking forward with no other choice what else are we supposed to
do. 

We get to the end of that hallway and are faced with two different directions.

"Right"

We keep following his instructions until we make it to a large door.

"Open it and go in"

It's filled with Jail cells. Great.

"I'll even give each of you the curtesy to pick your cell. Only one per cell though wouldn't want any of you hatching any plans."

He shoves Adrian free who stumbles for a minute before steadying himself.

Defeated I pick a cell in between Astoria and Marcus. Adrian is next to Marcus on the other side.

"Now I'm gonna ask a question and you're gonna answer or one of you will end up hurt. Understand?"

Instead of answering we all just glare at him.

"I'll take that as a yes. First question how do I get into Malfoy Manor now that Bellatrix changed the wards"

"Just go through the gates if the wards work like they are supposed to they will cut you into millions of tiny little pieces" Marcus answers from his cell.

Rabastian's eyes spark before turns his wand towards Astoria.

"NO" we all scream but it's no use.

"CRUCIO" Astoria falls to the ground screaming and writhing in pain.

"STOP" I scream.

After a few seconds he removes the curse.

"Now I want a real answer or someone else is going to get hurt"

We all stay silent. No way are we telling him how to get into our home.

"Fine" he growls pulling out a knife from a sheath on his belt.

He pulls his arm back and throws. I don't even realize where it was aimed until it sinks into my stomach.

"Oh" I squeak before falling to the ground.

"HERMIONE" all three of them are screaming my name.

I look up at my cell door as it opens. He bends down to pulls the knife out of my stomach but before he can do it I pull it out first. And drive it hilt deep into his thigh.

He screams before jumping out of my cell and slamming the door.

"Now I'm just gonna let you bleed out on the floor" he hisses out still in pain.

I start to fade in and out of consciousness.

"Hermione please you have to be ok" Astoria says from her cell.

I turn my head so I'm making eye contact with her through the bars separating us.

"Tell D-Draco t-that I th-think I was starting to fall in l-love with him"

"Hermione don't say that you're gonna be fine" Marcus says from the other cell. I can tell he's struggling not to cry.

"A-and tell Pansy th-that she's o-one of the b-best friends I've ever had"

"Hermione stop" Adrian yells from his cell.

"Make sure everyone I-in the m-manor knows how much I loved them all you guys I-included"

Just then the door slams open and our wands are thrown at us.

Fred spots me on the ground and his face pales dramatically. "GET HER OUT OF HERE" he screams. Now blocking Rabastian from getting to us.

Marcus slams my cell door open and picks me up that's the last thing I remember next thing I know we're apparating and I'm losing consciousness.

Draco's POV

I sit in the kitchen with Theo and Blaise eating dinner. The three of us and my mother were the only ones home at the minute. All the others were on missions. All were remotely easy missions so I wasn't to worried. Until I heard the pops of apparation and the screams.

"HELP HERMIONES BEEN STABBED IT'S BAD REALLY REALLY BAD" Marcus is screaming.

I jump up and sprint towards the sounds of yelling, Blaise and Theo right beside me.

I make it into the room to see both Hermione and Marcus covered in blood.

Astoria and Adrian arrive seconds later.

Astoria immediately collapses onto the floor. Adrian has a giant gash going through his forehead.

My mother rushed into the room as Marcus lays Hermione on the floor and I can see the stab wound in her stomach.

My mother kneels down next to Hermione. She checks her pulse and her face goes pale.

"Vivifica" she mutters under her breath.

The reviving spell. Used to attempt to restart someone's heart instead of cpr.

"No no no no no" I mutter I stumble backwards.

"Hermione you're fine. Mione please just wake up you're fine you're ok" I keep muttering.

Blaise and Theo walk forward and grab me. 

"Draco I don't think she's going to wake up" tears stream down Blaise's face.

"Why'd you say that Blaise she's going to be fine she's always fine"

"Draco I think she's gone" Theo says with a shaky voice.

"NO SHES NOT GONE SHES FINE SHES ALWAYS FINE AND SHES GOING TO WAKE UP" she has to wake up I never got to tell her that I love her.

"Draco's she's not asleep" Blaise mumbles.

I ignore him and stare at her waiting for any sign of life.

My mother looks up at me her face sad and defeated.

"Do it again" I command

"Draco I don't think it's going to do anything" my mum reply's

"TRY IT AGAIN please just one more time"

She sighs before turning back to Hermione.

"Vivifica"

I hold my breath and I can barely see it. Her chest moves.

My mother jumps into action. Pointing her wand at Hermione she says healing spell after healing spell and the wound starts to shrink.

I collapse to the ground and put my head into my hands. Blaise and Theo collapse next to me each of them wrap their arms around me. I look up at Adrian who's healing Astoria. Marcus is still standing over Hermione covered in her blood.

Just then the other group arrives home to what look like a scene from a horror story.

"HERMIONE" Pansy screams and is held back by Aunt Bella. My father runs into the room and starts to help with healing Hermione. Uncle Rudolphus starts to heal Astoria as Daphne throws up into a trashcan due to a mix of morning sickness and what's happening.

In a joint effort my mother and father take Hermione up into her room should forbidding us from going up there.

An hour later the adults come back into the living room and tell us that Hermione is in stable condition and we can go see her even though she's still asleep.

We all run up the stairs Astoria a little slower than the rest of us with Luna helping her. She has been owled by someone not any of us but we had a feeling that it was the dark lord who had sent for her. They had a weird connection.

We make our way into Hermione room. She's laying in her bed extremely pale and fast asleep. I sit at the end of her bed.

After awhile I'm the only one left in the room. That's until everyone in our wing starts filing back into the room.

Astoria comes in first with a pillow and blanket and claims one of the chairs in Hermione's reading area. Daphne comes in and takes the other. Adrian sets up right next to Daphne on the floor while Luna does the same but on Astoria's side. Marcus and Pansy come in and curl up next to each other on the floor. Finally Theo and Blaise walk in and make themselves comfortable right next to Hermione's bed.

I lay at the foot of her bed and close my eyes. We're all in this together.
