Harry Potter And The Prince Of Slytherin 112 Worries.

"Well, that's the plan in the very least." Draco said shrugging his shoulders, "I still need the permission of Dumbledore but I am sure he will give it to me."

"I don't understand why--why would you even need to go there."

"For an experience to say the least." Draco said, "And it's not like I am going in there forever, I will be back before the year ends, at least that's what my plan is."

"I just can't seem to understand you… especially these days." Pansy said, "Do others know?"

"Except for my parents and the ministry, along with the headmaster of Durmstrang, I am sure no one knows." Draco said, "I wanted to tell you about it first."

"So not even Hermione knows?"

"Even Theodore doesn't know." Draco said coming closer to her, "I didn't want to tell you before well at least not until I was ready to leave before but since you've decided to trust me a bit, I decided to tell you early on as well."

"Sigh! Can't I come…" Pansy said looking at Draco, "Or at least take Theodore with you, he is much better at spells than me."

"I am just going to Durmstrang for a bit of academic exchange." Draco said, "Not in war—so don't worry too much about it. As far as I know, the ministry won't allow me to stay there for longer than half a year."

"Was there such a rule?"

"Well there is but since most schools stopped doing such exchange, the rules have died down." Draco said, "Besides the place seems too interesting to visit and Crabbe and Goyle are moving in this year as well, so I won't be too lonely."

"Fine do what you want to do, just be safe." Pansy said, "After last time, I am always worried whenever you're not by my side. I keep having this bad feeling, that something bad is going to happen."

"You worry too much." Draco said caressing her hair, "Just believe me, I am very strong you know."

"Yeah…hha" Pansy giggled making fun of Draco.

'I am sorry that I can't tell you the truth. Since lies can make you happier and worry less about me, I will be willing to do so every time.' Draco thought to himself.

Pansy poked Draco's cheek, as he looked too lost in his thoughts. "So what's keeping you busy before school, I wanted to spend some more time with you."

"It's just basic stuff, but meeting again would be difficult as I have a few stuff that I need to take care of and I will be out most of the time." Draco said, "But don't worry, I will make it up to you when school starts."

Pansy nodded, "So are you going to tell Daphne about this? And what about Theodore and Hermione…?"

"Daphne has enough in her plate right now so I don't want to add to her worries so early on but I will be sure to tell her couple of weeks before I go there. As for Theodore, he would likely want to come with me, if I tell him early on so it will be more bothersome and as for Hermione, I will tell her, the same time I do Daphne."

"Why are you so insistent on not taking Theodore?"

"Well since last time, I am kinda afraid that he would be affected along with me since most people are out there to get me. I don't want him to get in trouble because of me." Draco said slowly as he stood up, "Wait a minute."

Draco walked back in his room and later came back with a small book in his hands, sitting back he handed the book to Pansy who looked at.

"What is this?"

"A list of spells and basic potions." Draco said, "Learn the things according to the book."

"I can understand the spells but why potions—and these potions are something, I have never even heard of before."

"Oh! That's an explosive potion which creates an explosion of gas which is way hotter than fire and much more destructive as it carries acidic properties to it." Draco said explaining the page she was turning into, "But this is a bit advanced, you won't reach this point in a year, so don't worry about it."

Draco turned to book to the first page, "So the first spell I want you to learn is a basic Expelliramus spell, not too advanced but is enough to throw even trained wizard off as many wizards can't do anything without a wand…"

One by one Draco began to explain the spells and some basic healing potions to her. Pansy didn't understand why Draco was teaching her this stuff but she still listened carefully, keeping each and every word Draco said in her heart.

"--So after that is the Expulso spell. This spell is much more advanced than the others I have explained before but you might have seen me use this spell before."

"You mean the one used at the party?"

"Yeah." Draco nodded, "The spells effective enough to burst through anything with force as long as you know how to use it properly. I want you to learn at least all the spells and potions that I've mentioned today by the end of this year, as for the other spells, you can learn it on your own if you managed to finish learning all the spells that I've told you about. If not, I will explain the spell to you on my own after I come back."

"Okay." Pansy said nodding, "I will try my hardest."

"As long as I am in school, I will teach you these spells myself but you've to practice these spells on your own after a while." Draco said, "Don't worry, these spells aren't that hard but still are very handy."

"Aren't you going to teach it to Daphne?"

"I talked with Hermione over this topic today and she gave me a brilliant idea." Draco said, "I will select a few students, I deem worthy and create a club. I will teach it to them in a similar way, and make sure that they follow my rules."

"Why? Are you just going to teach Slytherin students or is it something for everyone?"

"To gather followers of course, with my current fame, I doubt it would be hard and as for who would join… I don't care as long as they ensure their loyalty."

"And how will you do that…?" Pansy said, "You shouldn't trust people so easily."

"I won't teach them advanced magic, to begin with… as for their trust, I haven't thought much about it but I can come up with something for the people to ensure their loyalty to me." Draco said, "Maybe something like the Dark Mark." Draco said the last part silently.

"What?"

"Nothing." Draco shook his head. "I have a lot of free time today; we can do something that you want."

"I want to go outside but I am not sure if it's safe."

"It's safe." Lucius suddenly came in through the fireplace, "As long as you don't go out of line."

Looking at Lucius's grim face, Draco knew something was wrong.

"What is it?" Draco asked.

Lucius didn't say anything and handed a letter to Draco, Draco furrowed his eyes as the letter was from the ministry. He opened the letter and read it. The letter was a warning to Draco for underage magic and his punishment.

"What is this?"

"Lockhart came complaining that you used magic on him in public." Lucius said, "And offensive magic at that."

"Is Fudge willing to let this happen?"
