Harry Potter and the Prince of Slytherin 179 Sirius Escapes pt.2

"Well you might be a lot for me considering you can use wandless magic and you having your animagus form but I don't need to do all the dirty work, now do I?" Draco snapped his fingers as an elf appeared out of nowhere behind Sirius's back holding a knife to his neck.

Sirius gulped as he stared at the elf he hadn't seen before but before he could do anything the elf disappeared with another snap of Draco's finger.

"I see you have found some good uses for them," Sirius said sarcastically as he rubbed his neck distastefully, "Quiet clever if you ask me."

"Well someone had to right?" Draco said, "But let's get serious, Sirius--that sounded weird-- anyway, this is the only way you have left. You're an Azkaban escapee, as far as I know still guilty and getting hunted by the ministry. Working with me is the only choice you have."

"Why me? You're a Malfoy-by birth at least, you can get anyone to do your bidding for you."

"I need someone I can trust and someone disposable." Draco said with complete honesty, "And you're the only one that fits the description. I can really trust you but at the same time, I won't flinch even if you were to die. As for being the Malfoy part, I do have people working for me but as you can see there are a lot of bases to cover."

Sirius stayed silent for a while, "What about Harry?"

"Harry is safe, I can assure you that," Draco said passing the newspaper to Sirius.

The front page of the newspaper was a huge description of Draco's club that was teaching students some really harmful spell. Though the club was meant for learning, it didn't stop Rita to bash the idea of his club thoroughly even going far as to criticize Dumbledore for it. But that wasn't the worst part at all, the main focus of the club was Harry Potter being in the club as well. Harry Potter who was not in the best position like Draco and was already suspected of being a future-dark lord was now in the spotlight again. The picture in the newspaper was the picture of all the members of the club which included Harry and most importantly Ron and the rat.

"I am sure you recognize your godson, don't you?"

"I do, he looks like his father." Sirius said sighing, but then he noticed the rat on one of the boy's shoulder, that bloody rat was something he could recognize anywhere and anyplace.

Draco noticed Sirius behavior, frowning a little at the way he was acting as if he was going to go Hogwarts this very second and kill the rat. "Calm down."

"Calm down! You want me to calm down after seeing this?"

"If you do something to attract attention, I am sure Peter would be aware and will escape before you can ever find him again." Draco said, "Like I suspected the ministry wouldn't be quick to publish the news about your escape as I am sure Fudge would still want to save his arse, so we have a month at most. We do my job and we will get back at yours after that."

"I know you want to jump right away but I assure you, this is the only way to go." Draco continued, "With Pettigrew in Hogwarts, Harry is safe under the care of Dumbledore."

Sirius was still growling but his facial expressions were calmer than before.

"Stay calm, we have a lot more to do, especially about you?"

"What do you mean?"

"I mean as much as you want to kill Peter, the best way to deal with this situation will be to successfully capture Pettigrew and turn him over to the Ministry," Draco said as he rolled his eyes at the hyper Sirius who began flaring again, "Now, now... listen to me first. You can kill Peter if you want but that won't help prove your innocence but turning him over will. With it you'll finally be a free man, you won't have to worry about being a prisoner on the run but will get to live a proper life again."

"You really think I care about wanting to live a proper life?" Sirius snorted, "I'd rather kill that son of a bitch and die with him if I have to."

"Sure you will but what about Harry?" Draco said, "He's an orphan and all alone. Dumbledore after you being sent to prison sent him back to his aunt's house, where let's just say he isn't leaving the dream, one would imagine he would be in.-- Don't worry, he isn't being physically abused but mentally he sure is. If not for his cocky attitude which helped him still stay sane, I am sure he'd turn into an Obscurial, looking at how against magic his aunt and uncle are but it did help reduce his cockiness though which I am sure Uncle Snape would be thankful for."

Sirius grunted, "You knew this and--"

"And didn't stop it?" Draco cut of Sirius, "I promise you that I didn't know of this before until I looked into it and let's just say your Godson and I are not quite friendly, We went from being friends to enemies then back to an acquaintance in a matter of a year, so I don't know what our relationship is but you get it, don't you?"

"How did the newspaper get access to the information about your little club?"

"I asked my friends to do it." Draco said, "Since you were taking so long breaking out of the prison, I figured this would give you enough of a motivation, though I didn't except Harry and that Weasley brat to join in on my club but I guess it was meant to be."

"You're much like your mother," Sirius said as he snorted, "You know when to use people or should I say a perfect Slytherin at least."

"That's a first." Draco said, "So as I said, we can solve your problem in an instant, all we have to do is catch the bloody rat and we're through. You can stay and take care of your godson and I can live my life as well."

"So when are we attacking and how are we doing it?"

"Leave that to me." Draco said, "You just need to recover as much as possible and wait until it's time to attack the main base. That's all the things you need to focus on."

"How many people do you think would be there?"

"A few, I guess." Draco shrugged, "I am sure there are some guards there but then again since it's their main base, I think only some trusted people would be there."
