Ron's (POV)

I stared into her eyes.

"What do you mean? Why would Hermi...."

"DON'T YOU DARE S-SAY HER NAME!"

"I'm sorry. Why would she hurt you?" I said calmly.

"Oh don't act stupid, WonWon." she said, her eyes on fire, "You know exactly why she did it."

But the truth is, I didn't. Hermione has never hurt anyone ever, well except for Malfoy but he deserved it. I looked into her eyes, grabbed her hands and said "No, I don't. I don't remember. Please tell me."

She blushed and looked down at our hands.

She sighed and said "She's jealous Ron. Jealous of us."

Hermione's (POV)

I spit in his face. He stood there with his eyes closed as his face twisted and turned. He finally wiped it off his face and started opening the cage. Once he dragged me out by the hair, he held me up and whispered into my ear "You shouldn't have done that."

He slammed me up against the wall, hard. He did this again and again. It hurt like hell and I screamed at the top of my lungs. He pulled me back and held a knife against my throat and said "Don't you EVER spit in my face, Mudblood. I don't want your pathetic germs all over my Pureblood body. Afterall, Purebloods ARE better."

He started putting pressure on the knife.

"SAY IT!" he screamed. "SAY IT!"

I managed to whisper "Purebloods are better."

He slammed my head into the wall again and everything went black.

Cold water splashed on my face. I groaned and immediately felt all the pain rush back to me. I sat up fast and scurried to the back of the cage, pressing my back into the cage bars.

"Relax, Mudblood. I'm not here to hurt you." said someone's voice.

This voice was definitely not Lucius. It was a women.

"W-who's there?" my voice shook and cracked as I spoke.

"It's Narcissa, or Mrs. Malfoy. I prefer Narcissa."

"What do you want." I said sharply.

"I came to offer you food and water. I do not agree with what Lucius is doing but I can not help you. He has put a spell on me that bounds me to not touch you. But that does not mean I cannot give you food and water." she said with a smile.

Narcissa wasn't as bad as Malfoy or Lucius, but I still didn't trust her. I crawled toward the food and water and grabbed it. I dug in immediately. She watched me eat with a sad expression on her face.

After I finished I said "Does Draco know about this?"

It was strange saying Malfoy's first name, being used to saying his last, but I was with his mother so I showed a bit of respect.

"No," she said firmly "and that's how it has to stay."

"Oh"I said with a sigh.

All of a sudden there was a bang from up stairs and Narcissa got up quickly and head towards the door.

"Thank you, Narcissa." I said quickly before she could leave.

She turned and said "Your welcome, Hermione. I wish I could help you. I really do. But I can't and I hope you understand. I have to go before he figures out where I am and what I have done."

And with that she was gone, leaving me in the cold, dark dungeon all alone, again.
