All original characters found in this story are copyrighted © 2001, by me (Erin). Please do not use them
without my permission. ^_^

This is meant as a Sequel to Iniga’s trilogy "Innocence Lost and Found," "Cyanide," and "Raised to the Third
Power".  I recommend you read them before reading this story if you have any real hopes of understanding
what’s going on and why. (At least read ILF and RTP, Cyanide is not necessary but it is well worth the read! :)

Authors Notes: I think I should have addressed this in the first chapter, but just to clarify… This story is NOT
about religion. But it will be necessary at certain points in this story to reference back to religion, but it is NOT
and will NEVER BE the focus of this story.  I’m not trying to push religion on any of you. This story is being
written completely for your enjoyment, so… Enjoy! ^_^

Thank you’s and dedications: I would like to thank Iniga for letting me play in her universe and for writing such
inspiring stories, if it wasn’t for her this story wouldn’t be happening. This chapter is dedicated to my onee-chan
Rei, who first introduced me to the wonderful world of Harry Potter and to my other onee-chan Jess who is
just as big a HP nut as me, and inspired me to get off my butt and write this chapter. ;-)

Summary: Draco never dreamed he’d be given another chance at life and love, but when that chance arrives
it will be more then Draco could have ever thought possible...  ( * -_- Never said I was all that good at these…)

Dragon's Song

Chapter 2
Saving Grace
 

An angel.

He…was…an angel.

Draco was in awe of what he now was. He had never really believed, but he had
always wondered if maybe there really were angels. Now he knew!

“There is one more thing,” the voice said, interrupting Draco’s train of thought.

“Yes?”

“When you return to earth, you will be able to touch things, even move them, but no
one will be able to touch you,” the voice said. “This will not always be so. At the end
of your test, if you pass, and should you choose to return, you will become a living,
breathing being once again. But remember should you fail this test you will no longer
have any choices.”

Draco’s eyes widened. His heart raced inside his chest. His knees were weak for
he knew the importance of passing this test. To have another chance, to be able to
live again depended on him making the right decisions…on him being able to show
compassion where it was needed.

It seemed so little a task, how hard could it be? Yet he recalled he had been told he
might not want to help this person.

“Are you ready?” interrupted the voice.

Draco hesitated only a moment before answering. “Yes.” Then his breathe caught in
his throat when he realized that his time in the clouds was over. He now felt himself
being drawn downward until he again saw bright blue sky. Blinking Draco took in his
surroundings. He found himself standing in what appeared to be the backyard of a
large two-story home.

Amaranthus, begonia, forget-me-not, candytuft, impatiens, and snapdragons spread
out like a sea in front of him, encompassing the yard in a rainbow of colors. Morning
glory and yellow jessamine had beset the garden walls and were working there way
up the side of the house. Daisies, violets, starflowers, and poppies swirled in vibrant
masses of color. Carnations, baby’s breath, and lilies intermingled with weeds such as
clover and foxtail. A small angelic fountain, overrun by moss, resided in the middle of
the chaos.

Turning Draco found himself gazing upon a very familiar figure…
 
 
 

Authors Notes 2: Yeah I know, I know. Cliffhanger… *ducks objects being thrown* Don’t shoot me yet!
I’m in need of some help here. I’m not exactly sure what pairing I want for this story. I have several ideas but
I would like some reader feedback. So whom would you like to see Draco with? Please leave your response
in the form of a review or email me with your suggestion at PrincessSerena40@hotmail.com or IM me at Erin
Finnlaith. This will not develop into a shounen ai story so please refrain from requesting a m/m relationship. I
think that was pretty well outlined in the story. He’s being sent to help a FEMALE not a MALE. Thank you!!
I’ll keep the vote opened until Sunday after that I’ll get started on chapter 3. Until then Read and Review! ^_~
