Okay, so I'm not very satisfied with this chapter but thought I would publish it anyways, since I haven't updated in a while. Let me know what you think.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything.

Draco groaned and slowly opened his eyes. His head hurt so much and the world had black spots all over. Were they supposed to be there? No, he didn't think they were. He realised that someone was holding him. He looked up with squinted eyes. Even the light hurt his head. He realised his mum was holding him and he sighed in relief. He tried to talk to his mum, but his jaw hurt so much. He started to feel panicked when he felt his jaw was in a funny angle. He couldn't even move it. It was then he remembered how he had gotten hurt and why. Harry. Where was his friend? He hoped that ugly, mean man hadn't hurt him. With great difficulty Draco turned his head and saw a skinny man pointing his wand at a red haired woman holding Harry. Harry was pale and he looked dead. Draco felt a sinking feeling in the pit of his stomach. Was Harry dead? His mother raised her wand and pointed it at the woman. The woman looked scared. What was his mother doing? Like she was a million miles away he heard her begin a spell. He did the only thing he could. He pulled down on her wand hand. She yelped and Draco tumbled to the ground painfully. There was a crunch and then excruciating pain in his left arm.

"Draco!" His mother yelled in concern. Draco tried to talk but he couldn't. It was then he heard one of the Unforgivables.

"Crucio!" His mother writhed on the floor. Draco crawled with one arm towards her. She looked at him, her eyes full of fear and pain.


5 minutes earlier

"You thought you could get away, you pathetic little mudblood?" Narcissa asked with a sneer.

"No matter how much you beg I will not let you go. You've ruined our family's reputation." Narcissa looked at Lily in contempt. Suddenly angry Lily retaliated.

"It isn't me that caused your family's ruin; it's your pathetic husband and yourself, for allowing him to torture my son!" She said the last part hysterically. Angry tears ran down her face.

"He didn't touch your son; as if he would lower himself to touch a filthy half-blood." Narcissa said; her face scrunched up in an ugly sneer. Lily opened her mouth to retort when Narcissa pointed her wand in her face.

"Bomb-" The little boy, who Lily thought was still unconscious, yanked on his mother's wand arm, causing her to lose her grip on her son. He fell to the ground head first. Lily cringed but did not move. Draco saved his fall by putting out his arms. But because of the angle he had fallen he broke his arm. Draco opened his mouth to cry out, pain filled his eyes, and he snapped his mouth shut without letting out a single sound. Lily realised with a sinking feeling that his jaw was also broken. She felt sympathetic towards him, but couldn't help him because her first priority was Harry.

"Crucio!" The voice startled her and she looked back to find the owner. To her surprise Allen was looking down at Narcissa with disgust. He released the curse and watched Narcissa catch her breath. Draco had silent tears running down his face as he hugged his mother's trembling form.

"Quickly. Get out of here!" He pushed the pot of floo powder into her hands. Lily stood there stunned. She didn't understand what had just happened.

"Draco. I-I can't leave him." Impatiently Allen grabbed Draco from behind and dropped him into the fireplace.

"Dr-Draco." His mother croaked, reaching out a weak hand towards her crying son. Lily didn't feel sympathetic at all for the woman who had been willing to kill her and her son. Nonetheless she spoke to her.

"I'll take care of him." Narcissa looked up at her blankly and then collapsed on the floor, motionlessly.

Lily entered the fireplace with Harry in her arms. She didn't know how she would travel with both boys. She gave Allen a questioning look when she saw Severus' tall form behind him.

"Severus!" She yelled out.

"Lily." He said relieved.

"Allen?" Kingsley asked puzzled.

"Shacklebolt." He said nodding towards him.

"What are you doing here?" He asked angrily.

"Come on, Lily. We need to get the boys to the hospital." Severus said over the arguing voices. Lily looked at him numbly.

"Lily!" He said, shaking her slightly to get her attention.

"Y-yes." She said, snapping to attention.

Severus bent down and grabbed Draco. He stepped out of the floo, allowing Lily to leave first.

"Saint-Mungo's!" She cried out tremulously. Severus watched Lily and Harry disappear. Draco whimpered as he entered in the fireplace. Severus looked down at him and gasped.

"Saint-Mungo's!" He cried out urgently. Immediately there were two mediwitches that rushed to their side. They laid him down in a gurney and rushed away with him. Severus found Lily watching mediwitches push Harry away in a gurney.

"Lily." Severus said softly, standing in front of her. She stared up at him, her lips trembled and an involuntary gasp left her lips. She fell boneless into his arms and cried into his shoulder.

"H-Harry! They..." But she couldn't speak.

"They what, Lily?" He asked urgently.

"When I asked if he would be okay...They said... they said... I can't say it!" She cried out.

"Please Lily, tell me."

"They said... he..." She sucked in a deep breath.

"He might never wake up." She rushed out and gasped. Severus suddenly felt dizzy and couldn't stand anymore and on the ground. His mouth was open wide in shock and he stared at Lily's feet. She knelt down across from him and grabbed his hands. She held them into hers and stared at their intertwined hands. There was nothing to do now but wait.


Back at Malfoy Manor

"Allen?" Kingsley said puzzled.

"Shacklebolt." He said nodding towards him.

"What are you doing here?" He asked angrily.

Allen, to Kingsley's knowledge, had been put on probation because he had been compromised during his undercover mission. His mission had been to catch Lucius and Narcissa during a criminal act. His mission had been compromised when he entered into a romantic relationship with Narcissa Malfoy. Once the ministry got wind of this information, they pulled him out immediately, and then put him on probation.

"Word got around the ministry about today's mission. I heard about what the Malfoy's did to that boy. I'm not heartless. I wanted to be part of the mission. I visited this mansion many times during my mission and snuck through the tunnels more times than I can count. The Malfoy's trusted me; I knew if you got in a bind I could help you." Kingsley glared at him angrily.

"This will cause a lot of unwanted paperwork." He growled.
