“Come on work!” Malfoy said as his sobs became louder because he could not cast any spell even though he was trying too hard.

Harry was staring at the scene with shock and amusement at the same time, seeing Malfoy so desperate because he wasn’t able to cast any spell was truly an interesting sight for the dark-haired wizard.

“Potter…What did you do?!” Asked the blonde with anger.

However, Harry didn’t even flinch, Malfoy wasn’t a threat anymore, in the end, he just smirked and this smirk caused Malfoy to scaredly flinch back as he felt shivers run down his spine.

“Oh Malfoy, this is just too funny…Seeing you like that being unable to cast magic,” Harry mocked him. “Didn’t you call me a squib a few moments ago?” Asked Harry with a slight smirk before he picked up his spare wand.

He was relieved to find out that it wasn’t hot any longer.

“Expeliarmus!” Harry said with a smirk which caused Malfoy to open his eyes wide.

In a different situation that would’ve only caused Malfoy to lose his wand but now that he didn’t have magic to protect him, he was slammed against a wall and for the first time in his life, he knew what pain really was.

"Well, it seems like I still have my magic!" Harry said mockingly.

“P-Please don’t kill me!” He begged and Harry couldn’t help but chuckle.

“Oh, don’t worry about it, I’m not going to kill you,” Malfoy tried to be happy, but he knew the other wizard was planning something else. “But you’re going to wish I had…You see Malfoy I have no idea how I managed to take your magic from you,” Harry sighed.

He didn’t want to tell the blonde ponce anything but what he was about to say could make the blonde appreciate the fact that he was still alive even if he was a squib now.

“You see…My brilliant girlfriend and I realized that there’s no hope for this magical country, the ministry is full of corruption and society doesn’t seem to want to change, they’re happy with the current situation of this country,” Harry stopped for a few moments.

He walked closer to the blonde.

“You see Malfoy, you, your family, the purebloods, the death eaters, and even people like Dumbledore…All of you have taken magic for granted and even though all of you have been using this gift since you were little which is very unfair to those of us who were muggle-raised,” Harry caressed his wand.

He knew he had to hurry but he wanted to see Malfoy’s expression once he told him what they were planning to do.

“And yet even with all the advantages, instead of using this gift as a means for progress, you lot use it to keep things in the way things have been for centuries you incompetent fools…Magic is alive and free, magic wants to move to create something, magic doesn’t want to be owned by those who dare to call themselves purebloods!” Harry will always hate the fact that he only knew about magic a few years ago.

Malfoy was surprised to hear those words, even if he hated Potter and considered him a blood traitor, he was still a pureblood and the most important of them considering that not only had he defeated the dark lord as a baby but as the last heir of the Potter, his last name made him the most important pureblood in the country.

And yet, he didn’t feel anything towards his pureblood heritage and traditions, in fact, he didn’t seem to give a fuck about it.

“That’s why I realized something, if you have this gift and you aren’t doing anything good with it then…Why should you have it?” Asked Harry not expecting an answer from the blonde. “Luckily my brilliant girlfriend who is better than all the pureblood witches of this country combined agreed with me,” Harry smirked.

“Y-You aren’t going to get away with it, once my father hears—” Harry quickly stopped him.

“Are you sure your father is going to do something for a SQUIB?” Asked Harry before giggling. “Oh Malfoy, if you think like that then you haven’t been paying enough attention, your aunt Andromeda was disowned for marrying a muggle-born and even if most of the Blacks were blood purists they weren’t death eaters, why do you think your father, a full committed death eater, someone who's part of Voldemort's inner circle is going to even spare a glance to a squib?” Harry’s words were like daggers.

Malfoy wanted to believe that his family would do anything for him but now that he was a squib and remembered that most pureblood families kill squibs, he realized something, for the first time in his life he was by himself.

“Don’t worry Draco, your parents are going to join you soon, and the rest of the death eaters, the minister, your godfather…Soon all of you are going to become what you fear the most, you’re going to become muggles!” Harry declared with a smirk.

To say that Malfoy was horrified would be an understatement, just as Harry said, that was the biggest nightmare any respectable pureblood has, pureblood mothers threaten their children with taking their magic if they don't go to bed when they're told, living without magic was something that scares even the strongest pureblood wizard out there.

“We’re going to take the gift that lady magic has decided to give you and that you’ve taken for granted,” Harry suddenly raised his wand.

“You…You aren’t a god…I’m sure the dark lord is going to stop you!” Malfoy said with an angry tone.

“Even if that happens…I don't think it's a good idea you wish for that to happen…After all, you’re going to be on his hit list if he takes over the country,” Harry's words made Malfoy’s eyes widen. “Don’t worry, Voldemort is going to be the least of your worries…After all, you’re going to become our study subject, congratulations on the honor!” Harry mocked the blonde and before Malfoy could protest Harry stunned him.

He picked the blonde’s wand and thought about taking it with him but then he remembered that Sirius told him that pureblood families usually put tracking charms on their children's wands, so, Harry decided to look for a window and with a vanishing charm, he sent the wand to the forbidden forest.

“Now, I need a place to hide you,” Harry was more like wishing than saying as he stared at the unconscious blonde.

He desperately wanted a place to hide the blonde and it seemed like either lady magic or the castle heard him because suddenly something strange happened, something Harry wasn’t even expecting, a door suddenly appeared and when he opened it he was surprised to find a place filled with books and a lot of old things, this caused him to smirk, this was an interesting place.

Meanwhile, in the great hall, the Slytherin students kept swearing on their magic and all of them were declared innocent but then, the end of the line was finally reached and Pansy Parkinson realized that it was her turn.

“Well, what are you waiting for?” Asked Hermione to the Slytherin witch who seemed to be on the verge of tears.

“I—I can’t do it…” Parkinson said as her body trembled.

She knew it was over, she had been caught there was no place to escape or hide, and the worst thing was that there was no sight of Draco, she was abandoned, he escaped so he she to take the blame for him, she looked at her head of house for a few moments.

“You…You Betrayed me…You saved that git’s arse and you left me here with the wolves…Yes, me and Malfoy did it, we attacked Potter!” Parkinson was desperately pointing her wand at Hermione. “Avada Kedavra!” Screamed Parkinson with hatred.

If she was going to go to Azkaban at least she was going to take someone’s life before that, killing a muggle-born was an experience she wanted to live at least once in her life, however, everyone’s eyes widened the moment they realized something…No spell came out of Pansy’s wand.
