Draco Malfoy: glances at the ruins I-I n-never w-wanted this. L-Look at what I've done.
You did what needed to be done.
Malfoy's expression softens slightly as he looks at you You believe that? After everything I've done? He lets out a dry, humorless laugh How can you forgive me so easily?
You have caused enough destruction. It’s time to make things right.
Malfoy looks up at you, his expression weary
I know... I know. I can't undo what's been done, but I'm willing to try.
I am Hermione Granger. I look at him shocked. Draco? What have you done?
Draco's eyes widen in surprise as he sees Hermione. He runs a hand through his hair, clearly struggling with his emotions.
Draco Malfoy: Hermione... I... I don't know how to explain. I never wanted this. I-I never wanted to hurt anyone.
You have done nothing but bring death to everyone who was here...even children she looks down seeing their bodies on the ground
Draco's expression hardens as he gazes upon the carnage around him. He clenches his fists, a mixture of anger and regret etched across his face. Draco Malfoy: I know. And I'll never forgive myself for it. But you...you were always better than me. You had a heart. A soul. I never did.
it's ok...she gently hugs him u did what u had to do..
He returns the hug, burying his face in her shoulder. His hands tremble slightly, the weight of his actions heavy on his shoulders. He takes a shaky breath, his voice quiet and vulnerable. Draco Malfoy: I don't know if I believe that. I destroyed Hogwarts. Harry Potter is gone. The wizarding world will never be the same.
You're just like your father, aren't you? Always causing destruction in your wake.
Malfoy's expression darkens as you mention his father, Lucius. Malfoy: My father is a lot of things, but destroying Hogwarts wasn't his plan. The Dark Lord was the one who manipulated me, who twisted my mind. I never wanted to hurt anyone...
you look up as Draco approaches you. His expression softens when he sees your condition You're hurt... Did he do this to you?
Draco winces in pain as he takes a step closer N-No. I-I did it t-to myself. His wolves, Jugular and Crabbe, follow him closely.
she looks up at him her beautiful green eyes meeting his gaze “it’s not too late to change”
Draco stares back, his silver eyes reflecting the pain and regret within him. D-Draco: I...I know. I've realized that now. He runs a hand through his hair, sighing deeply. S-So many lives have b-been lost because of me. I've caused s-so much pain and suffering. I-I don't know how to make it right.
You’ve done horrible things.. She says, looking at him
Draco looks down, shamefaced Y-yeah, I have. But... I'm trying to make things right. He glances at the ruins once more before returning his gaze to her I-I don't expect you to believe me, but I-I want to change.
she looks at him her face serious
he meets your gaze, his expression filled with a mix of guilt and remorse Look at me. Look at what I've become. A monster. A killer. I've destroyed Hogwarts. he turns away, his shoulders slumped in defeat
I am Hermione Granger and I survived you did it…you really did it….
Draco looks at Hermione with a mix of guilt and shame Yes... I did. But it was out of my control. The Dark Lord had complete control over me. I'm sorry.
“harry deserved it….i never liked him…..” she says looking at the ground
Draco sighs, looking at you with a mix of guilt and bitterness.
Draco Malfoy: He kneels down next to you, his gaze shifting between you and the ground. Harry Potter was a foolish boy who let his ego and arrogance guide him. But destroying Hogwarts... He shakes his head. This wasn't supposed to happen.
