Chapter 18B

Draco was reading over a problem when his changed mark exploded with pain in his arm. He flew out of his seat. "Something's wrong." Even when Harry fainted it wasn't this bad.

Snape dropped his quill, "What on earth was that?" He frowned; feeling the power but not really knowing where it was coming from.

Draco rushed for the door, "That was Harry. Something's happened." His heart pounded in his chest. Was Harry hurt? Did something happen to the baby?

Harry clutched the robe to his scarred frame, Draco...he rocked one hand on his stomach. "I'll protect you Iris. I promise."

Draco couldn't get the words out fast enough as the door to their room opened. "Harry," he looked over the other, eyes worried and frantic, " What's wrong? I felt you. The professor did too." He took Harry into his arms, "Are you okay?"

Snape stayed closer to the door but looked at Harry as well. Power like that doesn't show up with out a reason.

Harry let Draco pulled him into his arms, "That worthless excuse for a headmaster was here." he spat bitterly. "He...he..." he couldn't say the horrible word... "…wanted to kill Iris.." his voice broke with a sob. "…told me I had o go to the Dursleys." he was so angry he wasn't thinking what this news might mean to Draco...

Draco did his best to hide his anger. What right did Dumbledore have to tell Harry such a thing! Quickly, the blond pushed his thoughts aside and focused on Harry. "Professor, give us a minute please?"

Snape's wide eyes returned to normal size. He nodded and stepped into the hall, letting the news sink in.

Draco's eyes soften as he looked into Harry's, "It's okay," he said gently, "everything's going to be alright. Nothing is going to happen to you or Iris. I won't let that happen."

Harry waited for Snape to leave and started to cry. "He was so...cruel. Telling me things like I didn't already know. How I would be a bigger target now. He wanted me to let him kill Iris. I told him I'd already bonded to her. He said I hadn't known about her that long so I'd get over it quickly. I don't know why he would want to send me back there. I hate it there. When I showed him my scars he just said I didn't understand the big picture. He even told me that I didn't know you..." his voice broke again.

Draco was furious. Dumbledore had crossed the line. "Harry," he soothed, wiping away the others tears, " calm down; we're fine. He just doesn't understand. Nothing is going to happen to you or Iris," he stressed. "Breath baby...it's okay. He won't hurt you. No one will." Draco would die to protect his family and if that meant getting rid of their Headmaster and fulfilling his mission from the Dark Lord then so be it...

Harry let Draco soothe him, "Isn't there a rule about...threatening the heirs of a bloodline? Can we use the curse story? I want him ruined."

"Hey hey, lets not think such thoughts, even though I'd love to do the same thing." Even though he was chuckling softly, Draco felt he could kill the headmaster with his bare hands right about know. His head ran down from Harry's jaw to Harry's stomach, "We don't want Iris thinking that too."

Harry swallowed choking on a sob, "I don't want her to grow up hating anyone." It made him happy to hear Draco being just as upset as him.

"And she won't, will you Iris?" Draco asked looking down. "Here that she said no." He was shaking but tried to make sure Harry didn't notice. Never in his life had he'd wanted to hurt someone this bad. Dumbledore was going to pay.

Harry let Draco comfort him. He was still angry but he didn't want Iris to be exposed to his murderous rage. "I want her to be like my Mum. Everyone says what a wonderful person she was..." he really hoped that Draco was that connected to their child, to know that she wouldn't be a bad person. He swallowed, "So I won't let myself be so angry...why don't we let Professor Snape back in? Maybe he can help us find a way to be safe. He knows that Person better then we do." he was terrified that Dumbledore would find a way to hurt Iris so he would lose her hoping to break him and Draco up.

Draco slowly let Harry go and opened the door. "Professor?"

Snape was frowning at the wall but looked at Malfoy who ushered him back inside.

Draco sat down next to Harry. "Professor. Is there something we can do to keep any one from hurting Harry?"

"I was just working that out myself," he took a few steps in thought. "There are several ways," he started. "The easiest would be to get Harry got of Hogwarts..."

"Can I still take my OWLS if I'm not in Hogwarts? I know you're supposed to be a really talented wizard..." vaguely remembering Snape was the Half-Blood Prince. "Could you ward our home? I'd trust your wards..."

"Suppose to be?" Snape repeated but didn't dwell on the almost insult to his skills. "That's another option. I can make it strong enough to keep anyone out."

Draco wanted to ask about another option but decided not to in front of Harry.

Harry swallowed, "I didn't mean any insult. I've heard more about that person's intelligence. I don't know who is truly the better wizard that's all. I mean in ability. That task you mentioned you were given...can it help us? I told you what that person was doing. I wonder...he claims to trust you but did he inform you Professor? About Vol...He Who Must Not Be Named's Horcruxes?" changing his mind about speaking the name of the dark lord.

Snape and Draco exchanged looks.

Draco took Harry's hand. "That right now is not important. I'll deal with that later right now it's your protection that's the main issue."

"Malfoy is right," Snape added, "making sure you are protected should be our main priority. The place you two visited through my floo, you could be able to live there while still taking class or some place closer to here."

"You're tutoring Draco. Can you help us both so we can pass without coming back? Is it true we're not really adults until we graduate? Can I be forced to attend?"

"Harry has a point," Malfoy added, "there are forms for that right?"

Snape nodded. "There is. But it will take a few weeks for them to pass through the proper channels to avoid certain pitfalls. You would have to show up a few times, Draco, since Potter is pass the hiding stage."

Harry sighed, "That task you don't want to discuss. Can we trade Dumbledore's life for mine? Would he accept?" He didn't really want to fight in this war if he didn't have to. He didn't like Voldemort, he thought he was mad but he was starting think Dumbledore was too. Where did the Wizarding World turn if the two greatest wizards of the era were both crazy?

"Its not the simple Harry," Draco almost whispered. "Even if the Headmaster was gone...the Dark Lord...he would still..." Draco couldn't finish his sentence.

Snape shook his head. "He would still have you as a target Potter, there is nothing that is going to change his mind."

Harry laughed, "When he looks at Draco's mark maybe he'll actually have a reason to fear me. I never asked Professor, if that mark could be changed, would you accept?" he still didn't really understand what power he had that Voldemort did not. "HE didn't hear the whole prophecy. I wonder what you would make of it. You are smarter then both of us...would you like the hear it?"

Draco stilled. "Harry...it's only changed for me and you. It looks the same to anyone else. I don't know if it will work on the Dark Lord though."

"Maybe some other time Potter," Snape declined. Having something in his mind that the Dark Lord wanted so badly was not such a good idea when everything that has been going on. He was already straining his talents as an Occumens and Legimens.

Harry chuckled, "Worth checking. I don't know any other Death Eaters who might ever want out. Besides, I owe him a life debt." Giving him his freedom would make them equal right? He didn't hate Snape, he just didn't understand him "I wanted to tell you because I want your interpretation. I don't trust that Person. Not anymore."

Snape gave an almost smile. "Maybe after Draco's next tutoring session."

"I like that idea," Draco gave a nod, happy to see Harry's mood lift.

"So when should we leave? I'm sure we can get Dobby and Winky to take our stuff." Harry smirked, "If we tie them to the Potter line as house elves doesn't that break their contract to Hogwarts? They can't tell him anything right? Dobby can't really say anything bad about Malfoys still. Besides, Kreacher might like me better if I'm carrying your daughter." three house elves should be adequate for their comfort right?

Draco chuckled, "Woah woah, one thing at a time." He turned to the professor. "Would it be okay to move in the morning?"

Snape thought about this. "...That can be arranged."

Draco nodded; glad they could get as far away from the Headmaster.

Harry blushed, "I'm just excited. Hermione will worry but she's at least trying to accept us. Ron will say you've kidnapped me. I haven't heard from Mrs. Weasley. I guess Ron and Bill hadn't told her about Iris. I'm a bit scared to tell her. Ginny has been pursuing me for a bit, since she broke up with Dean. I hope they don't all think I'll end up with Ginny..." he shivered, he wanted to be with Draco...

Snape cleared his throat, "I'll make sure you are protected tonight and get everything prepared for your move in the morning."

" "Okay, and thank you Professor," Draco said and waited until the door was close to get something to drink. "You don't have anything to worry about Harry. Mrs. Weasley loves you, anybody with two eyes can see that."

What do you think? Outstanding? Exceeds Expectations? Acceptable? Poor? Dreadful? Troll?
