Harry Potter And The Prince Of Slytherin 138 Argument Pt.2

"Draco? Why?"

"He's the only one that can handle the Slytherin students off--otherwise we might've to call a teacher," Hermione said looking at the players who seemed to have a weird vibe around them, "Go quick."

Ginny nodded and left the stands while Ron and Hermione went towards them.

"Oh, look," said Flint. "A field invasion."

Ron and Hermione were crossing the gra.s.s to see what was going on.

"What's happening?" Ron asked Harry. "Why aren't you playing? And what's he doing here?"

He was looking at Blaise, taking in his Slytherin Quidditch robes

"I am the new beater of the team Weasley." Blaise said, even though Blaise had only gotten into few scruffs with Ron, he still hated him none the less.

Ron gaped, open-mouthed, at the superb broomsticks in front of him. He looked at Pansy broom and snorted, "How much money did Black pay you guys to let him on the team, or did you just want to wag your tails in front of him further."

Harry and Ron, who knew Ron's problem of not shutting his mouth frowned along with Pansy and Blaise, and Flint in particular. These days he's sick of everyone bowing down to Draco, even though he wanted to openly retaliate against him but seeing that no one in Slytherin had any intention too. Draco being a powerful pureblood wizard and still hanging around with mudbloods made him disgusted. Even though the whole school seemed to respect Draco, Flint could only see a wizard who had lost his way whenever he saw Draco, so being looked down by Ron as being Draco's lackey, p.i.s.sed him off.

"Little Weasley, do you really think I am all forgiving like Black?" Flint said narrowing his eyes taking out his wand, without any hesitation, he chanted a spell and sent Ron flying away.

"Ron." The Weasley twins yelled going to help their brother along with Harry and Hermione.

"Stop it Flint!" Pansy called out but Flint didn't even look at her.

"Not so fast Mudblood!" Flint said smirking as he shot another spell.

Hermione afraid closed her eyes only to open her eyes a moment later to see Flint on the ground screaming in pain.

-----------------------------------------

Same morning and Draco was sleeping late since he didn't have any cla.s.ses today. He had stayed up the whole night practicing spells and potions again, so Draco was planning on sleeping the whole day away when suddenly someone started knocking on the door. Draco who was still sleeping soundly didn't care much about the knocking as he slept peacefully. The knocking sound kept getting frequent and louder as Draco lazily opened his eyes and looked around, Theodore was nowhere to be seen, so he had no choice but to get up and open the door himself.

Still half asleep, Draco opened the door slowly only to see a panicky Ginny.

"Wha.s.samatter?" said Draco groggily.

"Quidditch--" Ginny said huffing seeming completely tired, "In the Quidditch field--"

"I know today's Quidditch and I think you're misinformed, I don't play... Pansy does." Draco said rubbing his eyes with a huge yawn.

"We need to go--" Ginny said being impatient.

Draco squinted at the window. There was a thin mist hanging across the pink-and-gold sky. Now that he was awake, he couldn't understand how he could have slept through the racket the birds were making.

"Where?" Draco croaked. "It's the crack of dawn."

"I'll explain it to you on the way." Ginny said pulling Draco who was still in his night suit.

Draco lazily was being dragged down the hall by Ginny who was pulling him furiously and quickly as she could. Both of them reached the stairs when suddenly Draco pulled her back when she was just about to fall from the end, as the stairs suddenly s.h.i.+fted away.

"You need to be careful." Draco said, "You see rule no. 1 is to not run towards the stairs as they s.h.i.+ft."

Draco was going to continue the joke but seeing Ginny's serious face, he didn't. "So mind telling me what happened, running around like this without any explanation is weird, you know."

"Slytherins-- and Gryffindors are arguing--"

Draco narrowed his eyes, "You have your wand, don't you?"

"Yes." Ginny nodded.

"Give it to me." Draco said reaching out his hand, "And you can back to your dorm."

"But--"

"Do what I say." Draco said a bit sternly.

Looking at Draco, Ginny gave up and gave her wand to him, returning back to the dorm slowly, while she looked back at Draco who went das.h.i.+ng forward without saying anything else.

Just as Draco reached the ground he suddenly heard Flint scream Mudblood and shoot a spell at Hermione, recognizing it was a dark spell, Draco quickly chanted, "Protego Duo."

The spell quickly bounced off from Hermione. Flint in shock and dismay looked at Draco when suddenly he was. .h.i.t by a spell, causing him to ache all over his body.

Draco, of course, didn't use an unforgivable curse but just a small version of The Cruciatus Curse, not completely dark and powerful magic but still painful as h.e.l.l.

"Draco!" Pansy called out wanting him to stop but Draco didn't show any sign of doing it.

On the other hand, Ron was getting up from being knocked out of the spell. Ron suddenly looked pale and sick as he started vomiting a huge slug. The Gryffindor's quickly realized that it was some sort of Slug-Vomiting Charm. The Weasley twins wanted to help but they didn't know any spell that could help Ron right now. Draco glanced at Weasley, 'Looks like even I can't save something from fate itself.' Draco thought to himself as he got closer to Flint.

The Weasley twins helped Ron who was Vomiting Slugs get off the ground, As they looked at Flint angrily only to be shocked finding him on his knees. Hermione snapping out of her shocked state quickly went over to stop Draco thinking a horrible thought in her head.

"Draco stop, you can't use the unfor-- I mean don't use it."

Draco looked at her for a bit as he slowly said, "If it was the Cruciatus Curse, he would already start screaming much more from the pain. Besides, why would you even think that I will use that curse?"

Without replying Hermione pointed at the Slytherin students who seemed a bit afraid looking at Draco. Draco seeing their reaction rolled his eyes, not bothering to explain anything to them, he went over to Flint, still using the spell.

"You've been really getting on my nerves lately." Draco said to Flint who was squirming on the ground due to the stinging pain, "Look at me."

Flint looked at Draco with a bit of resistance and hatred.

"Good now apologize to Hermione and Weasley over there or else--" Draco increased the amount of pain he was causing, making Flint scream out, "Now be a good dog and apologize."

Flint just stared at Hermione and Draco with hatred, gritting his teeth.

"Well, you're only making it harder on yourself." Draco said increasing the pain by another fold making Flint scream out in pain, as he rolled around the ground like a fish out of water.

All the Gryffindors quidditch team, who were angry at Flint just a moment ago couldn't help but feel pity for him now. Some even wanted to stop him, since this was just plain open torture but no one dared to do so.

"Draco, it's okay." Hermione said trying to stop Draco, "I don't need his apologies."

"But I do." Draco said increasing the level of pain making Flint flinch again.

"I am sor-ry" Flint said screaming out.

"I can't hear you." Draco s.a.d.i.s.tically smiled as he increased the amount of pain.

"I AM SORRY." Flint screamed out not being able to hold any longer.

Draco snorted finally letting the spell go. Flint exhausted lied on the ground sweating as he breathed heavily.

Draco didn't look at anyone and went straight towards Flint's wand and picked it up.

"Not so good looking of a wand you have here, Flint." Draco said, "I thought after being held back a year, you would learn from your mistakes but I never thought you would come after my friends."
