Numb

Harry sat on the hard floor in the dungeon. He had no idea that he was at Malfoy Manor. He didn't even have a clue that he had been locked up for over a year. Ever since Harry killed Voldemort and Draco Malfoy's father, Lucius Malfoy, Draco had wanted to take revenge on Harry. Therefore, he captured Harry out of his own home, and took him to Malfoy Manor. Draco had a weird way to take revenge on Harry. He would give him a potion to make him less aware of what was going on, and then he would us the Imperius Curse to get Harry to go out and kill people that he loved. Draco was hoping that eventually, Harry would be so out of it that he would be just like Draco, and go out and kill people without the Imperius Curse.

I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
(Caught in the undertone just caught in the undertone)
Every step I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertone just caught in the undertone)

"Come on, Harry," Draco said with a smirk. "It's time for you took take your medicine."

Harry just sat there and let Draco pour the potion down his throat.

"That's a good boy," Draco responded. "Now, who shall we kill today?"

Harry just looked at Draco.

"Well, we killed most of the Gryffindors, so this time we can go for the know-it-all Mudblood."

Draco unchained Harry, and started the curse on him. Harry stood up and started walking toward the door. As he walked to the door, he grabbed his wand that was sitting on the shelf. He knew what he was doing was wrong, but he couldn't help it. He was so out of it that he didn't even know whom the mud-blood that he was talking about was. He just wanted to get it over with and get back because he was starting to get tired.

I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I've become so tired so much more aware
I've becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you

Draco led Harry to a small cottage by a river. It looked vaguely familiar to Harry, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it before. He got to the door and cast a spell on it to open it.

"Alohomora!" he shouted. The door creaked open. When he looked inside, he saw a picture in the middle of the table. It was a picture of him with a girl. He had remembered that day. It was their Hogwarts graduation, and they were fooling around in the park. He tried to remember more, but his head told him to go into the bedroom to find the girl. He walked past the picture, and pushed open another door. Inside was a girl sewing a scarf. Suddenly, Harry remembered that it was Hermione! Hermione and him were going out, but then he was taken by Malfoy! Harry tried to resist not casting a spell.

"Harry, what are you doing?" Hermione asked. "Harry, stop! You're scaring me!"

Harry's wand crept up a few inches, but he resisted a pushed it back down.

Can't you see that you're smothering me
Holding too tightly afraid to lose control
Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you
(Caught in the undertone just caught in the undertone)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertone just caught in the undertone)
And every second I waste is more than I can take

Draco came running in when Harry didn't come back out.

"Potter, what are you doing!" Malfoy shouted. "Kill her!"

Hermione raced over to her bedside table and grabbed her wand.

"Crucio!" Draco shouted at Harry. Harry shook viciously. "Imperio!"

Harry raised his wand, and since she didn't want to hurt Harry, she flinched. "Harry," she screamed.

"Av..Ava..Avada Kedavra!" Harry shouted out. It took him a lot of effort to try to resist, but it was no use because the potion Malfoy gave him made him weak.

As Hermione fell, she hit her head on the table, causing her head to bleed as she hit the floor by her bed.

"Nice job, Potter," Malfoy congratulated. "You even made it look like she died on her own." He laughed heartily, and led Harry out of the door. They Apparated back to Malfoy Manor.

"Well, Harry, you're doing much better than I would have thought that you would have been doing," Draco said as he chained Harry up to the wall in the dungeon. "Tomorrow we have a big day a head of us. We are going to train, and then go get the next victim." Draco left the dungeon.

I've become so numb I can't feel you there

I've become so tired so much more aware

I've becoming all this all I want to do

Is be more like me and be less like you

Harry awoke with a sudden jolt. He had noticed that Draco had been hitting him with sparks from his wand, but the potion he had used the other day was still making him drowsy.

"Now, Potter, before we leave to go to the Weasel, we are going to have a little bit of target practice. We don't want another fiasco like we did yesterday." Draco took Harry's wand off the shelf, unlocked him from the chains, and gave him the wand. "Now, I trust you that you will do well enough so that I won't have to control you this time." Where Harry's wand once was, Draco replaced with a picture of Ron Weasley. "When I say...Go!"

"Avada Kedavra!" Harry shouted at the picture. After that picture was blown to bits, Draco replaced it with another picture of Ron. The had done that practice for about ten minutes. Draco had made a mistake though; Harry couldn't see the face of whom he was curing because he was so far back.

"Very good Potter," Malfoy said. I think that we can go now, but first, I think you should have a drink." Draco took out a vial and gave it to Harry to drink from. It was a potion, and Harry knew that it probably was, but he was thirsty, so he had no choice but to drink it. "Now, lets go." They disapparated out of Malfoy Manor.

***

Immediately, the were in what seemed like the middle of now where except for an old house in the middle of a lot. Harry seemed confused because he thought that he had visited this place in his dream.

"Let's go Potter, you can do this," Draco encouraged in. "Just go on in, and cast the spell quickly."

"Alohomora," Harry whispered at the doorknob. He quietly pushed it open. He walked over to the stairs and noticed that Malfoy was following him. He couldn't see anybody downstairs so he started up the stairs. He jumped over the first step, and climbed up the rest. He didn't know why he did that, but when Malfoy stepped on the first stair, it creaked, and Harry remembered why. They both walked through a narrow hallway, and looked into every room. There was nobody home. Suddenly, the front door closed. Somebody had finally come home. Malfoy let Harry go down the stairs' first. He slowly walked down the stairs. When he got to the bottom, he couldn't se anybody. Slowly he turned a corner, and saw...Ron!

"Harry!" Ron shouted with glee.

"Imperio!" Draco shouted.

And I know

I may end up failing too

But I know

You were just like me with some one disappointed in you

Harry slowly raised his wand, resisting with all his strength. Ron searched for his wand, but couldn't find it, so he ran into the kitchen.

Harry crept towards the kitchen still resisting. He remembered playing chess in first year. His wand slowly crept down. Then he remembered the Chamber of Secrets in second year. He turned around. He remembered saving Ron in the lake in fourth year, during the tri-wizard tournament and the Whomping Willow in third year.

"Av..." Harry started. He remembered the Department of Mysteries in fifth year.

"Ava..." Harry stuttered. Then his thoughts were clear, and he remembered killing Voldemort and his death eaters in sixth year, and graduation in seventh year.

I've become so numb I can't feel you there

I've become so tired so much more aware

I've becoming this all I want to do

Is be more like me and be less like you

"Avada Kedavra!" Harry shouted at Malfoy. Draco flew up against the wall, and slid down to the floor.

"Harry, you killed him!" Ron shouted.

"I had to," Harry said out of breath. "He has been keeping me hostage for, um, well I'm not sure how long."

"It's been a year now," Ron said.

"I'm really tired, Ron." Harry yawned. "How about I go take a nap, and then you can tell me all about what I have missed."

"Well, I know that I missed you," Ron said grinning.

I've become so numb I can't feel you there

Is everything what you want me to be

I've become so numb I can't feel you there

Is everything that you want me to be

*The End*
