Mine - Drabbles 004 & 005 (plus a quick ramble)  
Hey all! Long time no-post!

Um, well, to keep this short, uni is kicking my ass, work is kicking my ass, and now I'm sick. Needless to say there has been very little progress on the chapter. Oh, well, other that to decide (rightly) that half of the chapter is totally off and I need to do some serious re-writing. All and all not a lot of forward-progress is being made. Right now I am too sick and tired to concentrate properly on anything much (and yes, that _does_ include fanfiction, (of the reading sort), and anime) but I have been sideways inspired to do some sideways work on my sideways project.

Thus, have a Mine update for you. Working on another, too, but I thought I'd post this one before the sickkie-attacks overwhelm me.

A/N: Part of the reason I'm actually blathering on here is that I wanted to tell the readers that there is going to be a teeny tiny change to this series. From now on there will be one of three titles attached at to each drabble as we go along, simply to give some semblance of coherency. Mixed-time drabble series' are confusing enough when written well and I don't think I would apply that descriptor to this collection of brain explosions. Anyway, all drabbles will have one of these titles: 'Fear', 'Pain', & 'Pandora'* applied. (This includes all previous entries!) These titles are to help the reader put things into context in terms of a veeeery general timeline. I'm sure you'll pick it up fairly easily. I don't know if these will actually help, or if they're completely unnecessary or whatever, but we'll just have to see.

*I just feel I should say that I am a pleb when it comes to mythology but I wanted to use this word anyway because of what the word makes me think of. Hopefully I'm not so off the beaten track that it makes no sense to everyone else!

~ Fear ~


--


Draco looked at his Father, “What?”

“You heard me.”

“I can’t believe it,” Draco whispered faintly.

An eyebrow was raised, “You doubted the Dark Lord?”

Draco shook his head, “No, I just... I just never thought Hogwarts would fall.”

Lucius made a dismissive noise, “Dumbledore encouraged the mentality that Hogwarts and the ‘Light’ were infallible, indestructible. Fudge was more practical - more fearful. He was quick to betray Dumbledore and his Golden Boy when his personal safety was assured by our Lord.”

Draco was startled, “Potter?”

“Captured and delivered to us last night. Hogwarts’ defenders lost heart without their beacon of hope.”

“Did our Lord kill him?”

Lucius just looked at Draco, “Not yet.”

~ Pain ~


--


Breath,

Heat,

Suffocation.

Draco bit down on the sheets and tried not to scream.

I won’t cry, I won’t I won’t I won’t!

Weight pressed down and the smell of blood and sweat and-

I won’t I won’t!

Hands. Touching and-

No!

Pain. That damn smell.

Closing his eyes just made it worse.

I won’t cry! I won’t scream!

White, mocking bed-sheets.

If only he could turn off his senses.

Choking on blood and sweat and-

No no no no no

Draco bit his lip, and cried, and screamed, and only laughter listened.

^_^; I wondered if I might ruin the mood a little with that, but I just hate leaving the post with no further comment. Guess it's just one of those strange quirks.

Glad the serious bits hit the spot before I ruined it though :D >_>;

Haha! That's alright! You're supposed to be! That means I'm not being too obvious. The idea behind this story is that you get heaps of pieces of a puzzle thrown at you randomly, and you have to figure out what's going on. So far I think it's fair to say that it's been shown that a) Draco is taken to the Dark Lord, (hostage? servant? prisoner? Who knows!), b)Draco doesn't like the Dark Lord much for some reason, c)Harry was captured by the Dark Lord but not killed (yet), and d) Draco had something really, really nasty just happen to him. the rest you have to guess/wait and see. Hope it's interesting tho!
