A/N: Hello All! This is my first fan fiction. I tend to lean toward odd pairings such as Draco/Ginny and Hermione/Snape. This happens to be a D/G pairing. I hope you like it.
FYI, I already have 36 chapters written. I would guess that I have a few more to write and it will be complete. I also speculate a sequel could be in the works. You can expect a new chapter every three to four days.
Last, but most definitely NOT least, I want to thank my Beta-reader. Alinora, you know who you are, how much you have helped me and how much I value your friendship.
Title: Merlin's Oath

Prologue
In the foreground, they could see the great castle known as Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. They were returning from a fun-filled day in Hogsmeade. Skipping, like the young schoolgirls they were, with bags filled to the brim with an assortment of candies from Honeyduke's, neither one of them noticed the black robed men heading straight for them.
"Stupefy!" one of the men yelled. The attractive, blonde girl fell into a heap on the ground.
The gorgeous redhead quickly grabbed her wand from her pocket and began yelling curses at the three robed men.
"Expelliramus!"
A wand landed in her empty hand.
"Petrificus Totalus!"
Another of the men dropped in a full body bind. His wand fell uselessly to his side.
"Stupefy!"
The last robed man fell to the ground completely dumbfounded. His wand also fell to the ground uselessly.
She grinned and thought right back at you! Then, she began picking up the other two wands of the robed men.
By this time, several professors were running to see what all the yelling was about. They stopped in awe. They saw three men, lying on the ground, completely helpless at the hand of the petite, redheaded girl.
Professor McGonagall quickly pointed her wand to the blond girl and muttered, "Enerviate."
The blonde girl immediately awoke. She was a little disoriented, but quickly regained her bearings. Her disorientation quickly changed to shock as she noticed the black robed men.
As the blonde girl was gaining her strength back, the Headmaster placed binding spells on the other two men.
"Oh my gods and goddesses! What happened?" asked the blonde girl.
McGonagall replied, "It seems your friend saved you both from a fate worse than death."
The blonde girl quickly got to her feet and ran to the redhead and grabbed her in a tight embrace. By now, both girls had tears running down their faces.
The blonde girl pulled back and silently swore to Merlin that her first born son would marry the redhead's first born daughter to offer restitution for saving her life and only the gods and goddesses knew what else.
According to plan, it had begun…
