Draco is a Malfoy and he will never be allowed to forget it - in much the same way that Sirius was a Black, yet reviled its ideals. How do you fight against centuries of history pushing you in a cetain direction?

Sirius did it because he had the will and because he was a natural rebel, but I think Draco would be perfectly happy settling down as Potions Master at Hogwarts!
Which I think would be nice.

Wrll, i've read just first -razz's post so forgive me if i'll be perhaps little out of topic. My opinion is that Draco joined Voldmort only because he wanted to show himself what a "hero" he is, though he is rather coward. I don't know what about his path -good or evil, but possibly evil. Also... he can't simple came to Voldemort "Hi Tom, it was all nice, but you know, i need a little change so bye!" LV wouldn't be pleased with him. Most likely he'll follow his father's path. But it's possible he'll be important in 7th book. There are too much things which could be important, though...

[The One]

it would be awesome to see like

Harry and Malfoy Vs. Bellatrix and Voldemort

as the final fight for the book

and JK herself had said that a student we know would come back to Hogwarts to teach maybe Darth_Oz is right in saying that Malfoy would come to the good and teach Potions at Hogwarts and eventually help Harry

he may even be the DADA teacher since Slughorn is the Potions master and is currently quite comfortable with his crystallized pineapple and safety from Voldemort (although now that DD is gone are the protections still around the school? I mean the night he died he had removed them then died are they back? is he the only one able to re-do all the protections he put on them or is McGonnagal/the Ministry aware of all the spells and enchantments?)

well me personally i think that draco will sooner or later go to harry's side and help. How? i don't know yet it will be difficult getting away from voldermort though. I just hope that jk doesn't kill him because i fell that he is good. The only reason of cource that he acts bad is because of the way he was brought up

Draco is definitaly not a killer i mean he was crying and talking to moaning myrtle in the bathroom. He's sentimental. Really deep inside of him. That night he was supposed to kill DD he chickened out.But that is a good thing though. It made draco realize what it truly means to be a deatheater.

Well once again I think draco is good and not evil

[LilyPotter]

Maybe we will have some sort of Draco-Lucius face-off, kind of like Star Wars. Draco definately wouldn't have killed DD... he didn't have it in him. But his father is another story. Lucius is a dirt bag.

[Buckbeak/Witherwings17]

I think it would be cool to see a Draco/Lucios faceoff or a Draco/Bella faceoff.
I do think that Draco will eventually turn to the good side. (Possibly because lv kills Narcissa for his "failure"?)
Draco just doesn't have enough evilness to be a death eater.

First of all, I think we should take Draco for what he is. I think that JKR has worked very hard in her series to show that the world is not divided into black and white and Draco is an example of that. Through previous 5 books he has shown himself to be arrogant, irritating, power loving (bullying), a leader among his group, and VERY MUCH ATTRACTED TO THE DARK ARTS.

1. If nothing else, Draco is a member of a pure-blood family and he prides himself with that. 2. His father used to be and is one of the Death Eaters>> I think he just sees himself as fitting into LV's line. It's like it were PREDESTINED. So Draco is attacted to the Dark Side because he only sees its' "glorious" side-- they're powerful and power surely attracts many.

With the assignment VL gave Draco, he gave him somewhat of a test and a punishment. Punishment for his father's mistake and test-- to see what Draco was capable of.

We all saw how excited Draco was at the beginning when he got this assignment to kill DD. He felt SPECIAL. It was HIM of all the others who got assigned such an important task, however, he saw the bitterness of failure. He cried and was nervous about his own and his parents' lives. He saw the other side of the Dark Side-- now that it threatened him he's FORCED to obey, but I'm sure that if he got a chance, he'd love to avoid it. Thus, Draco seemed quite compelled by DD when he talked of Draco's choices and giving him another chance.

Another thing. I see (and i think JKR might've mentioned it herself) DD as a character voicing the writer. I think in a way it is JKR who is the beleiver in Love's true power. I think she, like DD, is willing to give Draco another chance.

Maybe not throughout the entire 7th book, but I think at one point Draco will be unable to bear all the strain of LV ( I do not think that LV will punish him by death quite yet just because he did not kill DD) and will switch sides. I think not Ron, but Draco will sacrifice his life for Harry. Maybe not for HARRY as a person, but for the cause. It will make a much more dramatic effect, which will also clear up Draco's old deeds in our minds (I sound like his big fan, but I've quite disliked him in the past..). Just remember, like DD, JKR beleives in the power of good, so I don't think she'll leave Draco at the evil's mercy.

Excuse me for the long post,

Long Time reader, firtdt time poster. I think maybe Draco helps harry in the end and they become realy good friends. Crazy I know, but how would you feel if it happend? Answer honestly

[Ginevra_Molly]

I think that maybe Draco will end up like Regulus Black. Malfoy is a coward as it is demonstated thoughout the whole series. Maybe he will get to far into the Death Eaters then try to back out and be killed....or something like that.
OR
if you are convinced Snape is good, maybe after he runs away with Draco they will both go into hiding together and Snape with turn Draco good and then when he is ready and DD reveals himself as not dead, they'll come out of hiding and he will be protected by the OotP and maybe not become friends with (i dont think thats possible afer all hes done) but mabye be able to have awkard conversations every now and then with the trio and everyone else. i mean they are all very good at trying to see the good in people and maybe they will be able to forgive and forget what he had done in the past. oo except ron will probably be more hostile than the others because he seems to hate draco quite a bit more than the rest!
sorry if alot of that doesnt make sense...its all just comin to me as i type

I think Draco will go to the order and ask for their help. I think that Voldemort is going to let Lucious stay in azkaban and kill his mother. But would that upset more than just draco? wouldnt blatrix also be distraught? So he may just get Dracos mother locked up to. But Draco will run to the order and he and harry will develop problems, but in the end i think draco will help harry find and/or destroy a horcrux. Because as said draco is a powerful wizard and voldemort and dumbledore may have seen this. If Draco is on Voldemorts side then basically he has most of the A's and Jokers in his deck.

[ohlalaylee]

Draco is not evil! He's an arrogant, stuck up little git, but not evil.

He's obviously talented- evident in the fact that he was going to Crucio Harry, and i think that he will turn against Voldemort.

Personally, i think that Harry will help him. He saw that Dumbledore was offering him help, and Harry has great respect for Dumbledore.

Also in answer to the will they become friends, i would love to see it! Me and one of my npw best friends hated eachother all through school and uni, and now we're god mothers to eachothers children! Like Harry and Draco, we were both good at sport and on opposing teams, were good in different subjects and our social groups hated eachother. It is entirely possible that strong friendships come out of those situations. I feel that if Harry and draco could actually work together they would make a fairly formidable team with their relative stregnths. They would have a great deal to get over, but id imagine that war could change ones perspectives on life.

[lilyblue]

i don't want to think about it but i think that draco's gonna die in the next book
*sob*
my poor little baby!

I understand he is weak and feeble at heart but he should still have the commonsense to understand what it means to be a Death Eater. Knowing is a very powerful strength as it allows you to see everything with crystal clarity. Hopefully this clarity will lead him to abondoning his old ways. Still we cannot ignore his obviously greedy and malevolent nature. He cares a great deal about power and having it. This is what makes him weak and likely to stay with Voldemort. Unless Draco suffers somehing unbearable at the hands of Voldemort he will stay on his side. He is still a scared little child and scared children are the easiest creaturs to manipulate and exploit. Frankly I don't care as he's little more to me than an annoyance but a lot of you seem to care and I thought I'd toss in my two bits worth.

[therearethree]

Unless Draco suffers somehing unbearable at the hands of Voldemort he will stay on his side.

There is the fact that Draco still failed in his mission to assassinate Dumbledore, despite Snape succeeding in his place, to consider when one speculates about how Voldemort may receive him back. I wouldn't be surprised in the least if he has a "punishment" coming, despite what happened, especially since there were other DEs present who could report on him. Moreover, Draco isn't completely stupid, so he may realize that this is possible. What if he decides to flee, and Voldemort sends one of his "special" allies after him? Yes, I think he may be hunted by at least one Dementor before too long....
