Fade

It was cold in the school dungeons and everyone slept. Except for one boy.

Draco Malfoy sat at his window in his dormitory. Memories of all the things that had happened these passed few years seem to keep coming no matter how much he tried to block them out. His Father's memory was haunting him.

I tried to breathe. Memories over taking me.

I try to face them but the thought is too much to conceive.

It had been only two years since he faced his father and then joined Harry Potter's noble order. But he also ended up being betrayed by his own father. In order to prove his allegiance to Voldemort he tried to kill Draco. He also went after Ginny.

I only know that I can change. Everything else will stay the same. So now I step out of the darkness that my life became cause. I just needed someone to talk to you were just to busy with yourself. You were never there for me to express how I felt. So I just stuffed it down. Now I'm older and I feel like I can let some of this anger fade. But it seems to surface I am scratching in this bead that I have made.

Draco got away. But Lucius had gotten a hold of Gin. Draco and the others went to save her. But they had to go through a thing that made you face your most painful memories. Draco was reminded of how his father was never around when he needed him or how he was neglected when his father felt

Draco was a disgrace. Like in his second year when his father was angry because he didn't like that

Draco was second best next to Hermione Granger A muggle-born.

So where were you? When all this I was going in through.

You never took the time to ask me just what you could do.

He had tried everything to please his Father. God knows he tried. But all in vain. The man was only going to please if Draco got a bloody tattoo on his arm. All the while Draco was slowly starting to change after two years of being around Potter and the thing was... he wanted it.

I only know that I can change. Everything else will stay the same.

So now I step out of the darkness that my life became cause. I just needed some one to talk to.

You were just to buys with yourself you were never there for me to express how I felt.

So I just stuffed it down. Now I'm older and I feel like I could let some of his anger fade but it seems to surface I am scratching in the bead that I have made.

When they got to Lucius, they found Voldemort there with him and a lot of Death Eaters. Draco and Harry went to take care of Lucius and Voldemort while the others fought off the Death Eaters. It was a long battle and both sides were getting exhausted. Harry and Voldemort were so evenly matched that you could tell they would battle for a long time. Till one gave out. But Draco was being taunted by his father and as in the old days mentally abused. "You were always a disgrace to the Malfoy family name," Lucius said to him.

" You could have been the heir of the greatest Dark lord ever known to the wizarding world, and you chose that brat over him and duty why?"

Draco simply stared. It was all he could do. He was fading into nothing to these words.

But I never meant to fade away... I never meant to fade!

Draco looked up at his father. He had answer to everything at that moment and he was ready to give it. He stood up tall and looked at the man he once called father and narrowed his eyes in way signifying painful sadness.

"I chose Potter because he gave me something that not only I needed but mother needed. A family that cares.

And I didn't want the Dark Lord for a father. I wanted my father. But I was denied that by the one person I wanted the most to be there. Now that person shall remain and always be the enemy I never wanted, and I will no longer live in the pain he gave me. This is my farewell."

When I needed some one to talk to you were just to busy with your self. You were never there for me to express how I felt so I just stuffed it down. Now I'm older and I feel like I could let some of this anger fade but it seems to surface. I am scratching in the bed that I have made.

The battle ended and Ginny came back safe and sound. But Voldemort and his Death eaters got away along with Lucius. Draco looked down. The pain of the past was gone and now only scars were left. The memories surfaced and it sometimes left him feeling some pain. But now he was going to learn from his past. Because he was expecting some one who would get what he never had. He looked at Ginny's photo by his bead when she was only a week pregnant and everything ceased to pain him.

Yet still he found it hard to breathe when his memories returned.

I try to breathe.
