"Do you know how to get out of here?" Draco asked readying himself.
"I do." Elanor said, "But why should I tell you?"
"Um... because I saved you." Draco said after thinking for a while.
"But I saved you as well, the debt's already been paid." Elanor said shrugging her shoulders.
Draco looked slightly annoyed as he ignored her and started walking away.
"Are you just going to leave an injured lady alone?" Elanor called out.
"The debt's already paid, isn't it?" Draco repeated her line and continued walking.
"Wait! If you find me some blood, I can tell you the way out." Elanor called out again, "If you were to just wander around all alone without knowing where to go, you'll surely fall under the traps of those veelas, without me, you can't get out of here."
Draco stopped, "What kind of blood do you want?"
"It was my first time drinking a human's and as expected it's nothing useful." Elanor said, "If you can get me Dragon blood that will be good... but you can't find any here so maybe hunt some animals and collect their blood for me. I will taste them on whether they suit my taste or not and how much it will take for me to heal completely. If it's low-quality blood it might take a lot but it will still work and make sure to not bring any Veela's blood, I just tasted it and it tastes like garbage."
"Why are you ordering me around?" Draco snorted, "And didn't you say that you carried me here? Why can't you hunt your own food then?"
"I did but I have bled too much right now." Elanor said, "Soon the veela's would follow up and kill me and you, so why not make this deal with me."
Draco thought for a while, "Wait for me then." He said heading out.
"You'll come back, wouldn't you?" She asked again.
Draco looked at her beautiful pale face, as he quickly turned back, "I might." He said going outside the cave.
He looked around the place and saw nothing but trees all over the place. Draco wanted to fly up and look but decided not too, since if what that girl said was true then he would be spotted immediately.
"What to do?" Draco thought for a while. He quickly found a secure place and hid his suitcase, getting inside it. Inside things were slightly a bit of mess.
Fluffy suddenly came running towards him quickly hiding behind his back, "What happened to your chains?" Draco looked back at Fluffy who was growling looking back at his house. Instead of trying to attack him, Fluffy was hiding behind him, wanting Draco to protect him, which surprised Draco a lot. Draco looked over to see Norberta eating Fluffy's meal and figured what had happened.
Draco sighed and looked back at Fluffy, "Guess you will have to share for a while." He said walking over to Norberta.
"Norberta, come here." Draco called out in whispers. As soon as Norberta saw him, she came stumbling towards him happily, since she wasn't old enough to fly she could only walk around.
"Good girl." Draco said patting her, "Did you harm anything here?"
Norberta quickly shook her head looking at Fluffy who was still behind Draco. "It's okay, I knew you would be hungry, sorry I couldn't come any sooner but next time, don't chase him away, I will separate food for you differently.
Norberta nodded rubbing her face towards his, "Be careful girl, I already have a lot of scars."
After separating a living space for Norberta and leaving her with plenty of food, Draco sat back resting for a while. He didn't create a habitat for Norberta separately since wasting mana here would be a dumb thing to do. He really wished that he could apparate right now. He started feeling a bit sick remembering all the killing that happened today. He thought this would be easy but it really wasn't. The more time he spent thinking the more weird and bad he felt, even though he didn't kill any of them directly, but indirectly he murdered plenty of them and he had blood in his hands nonetheless.
"If I didn't act so stubborn none of this would have ever happened." Draco thought to himself wondering whether Lucius's was fine or not. And what was happening to Theodore? Was he okay? Did Pius harm him?
He started remembering Lucius last's word and started connecting the dots. "So from what I know, Pius is the head of the anti-dark force created by the ministry but he wasn't acting like a ministry worker at all. He wanted to take me away no matter the cost since he went far as to kill people without any warning. There were Aurors there as well but none of them stopped him, instead joined forces with him to attack me and father-- Does he just wants to kill me to prevent me from gaining power in the future... Wait, the other forces, how could I have forgotten about them--" Draco said quickly going back to his room and taking out a couple of letters. "The people who wanted me to join the dark side is he from there... that explains why he didn't harm me too much. So is he the one in control of that group as well or is he acting under the order of some other people-- Sigh! Wasn't Voldemort enough, now I have to deal with Pius as well."
He got out of the room and walked towards the door which lead to nowhere, no matter how one looked at it, it was just a door on the empty ground. Draco walked up to the door and knocked on it three times as the door suddenly opened leading to the 12 Grimmauld place. Luckily Draco and Theodore had managed to build the formation, so this could be used in his time of need.
(So I skipped the formation making process since it was too boring to write and didn't fit well in the context.)
"Kreacher! Dobby!" Draco called out. Both the house-elf came out and looked at him in surprise.
"Master! you are here." Kreacher bowed,
"What happened to you master?" Dobby asked in concern looking at Draco's face.
"I am fine." Draco said shaking his head, "Dobby, go back to Malfoy Manor and make sure whether Father is okay or not and don't let anyone find that you were there. If you find out some information that would be much better as well. Come back to me as soon as you find out."
"Master is something wrong with..."
"Just check whether he is back, home or not." Draco waved his hands. Dobby didn't ask anything more and disapparated back to the Malfoy's.
"Kreacher, how far can you disapparate?" Draco asked.
"I can do it all over the country... but it will be harder the further we go." Kreacher replied. Draco shook his head in disappointment, "Go get me some raw meat that I have stored, all of them."
Kreacher nodded and disappeared. Draco went towards his library and started searching for a clue for where he was. Knowing the place was really important, even though he could come and go whenever he wanted to, his suitcase would be stuck there, so he had to learn the location of the place and get his suitcase out of there immediately.
After searching for a while, he stumbled across a map that showed the Venus forest and had some information on it. It was written that the Venus forest housed a special veela clan but that was all that was written about the place. It showed where in Romania the forest was but he couldn't figure where exactly his suitcase was since the map wasn't detailed at all.
"It at least confirms that Veela lives there." Draco thought out loud. He thought about Elanor the beautiful vampire, wondering whether he should continue on with the agreement or not. He could provide her with Dragon Blood which wasn't a hassle but he was wondering whether he could trust her or not.
