Introduction: A Spot of Trouble
One would never be able to really trust Lucius Malfoy implicitly, not even his own immediate family- small in number as they were. It was a fact demonstrated quite harshly on Friday the 27th of August, five years after the destruction of Voldemort by the The-Boy-Who-Lived.
The Malfoy family lived in recluse in the county of Wiltshire, in an unnamed spot that was virtually invisible- to Muggles and Wizards alike. The new Malfoy Manor, living up to its name, was made of stone and had a cold, hard feeling about it, that would send (very rare) visitors cold shivers down the spines if not used to the expanse of a mansion, particularly one owned by that family.
Being the cold, hard place that it was suited the elder Malfoy's just fine, but little did they know that their son, pardoned for his few war crimes, was getting very sick of his father's powerful hand and his mothers unquestioning devotion to him. Anyone who knew Draco truly (which was only a few) would have been able to see the trouble that Draco would soon get himself into if he was not careful about how he acted around his father.
As ordinary families go, the three Malfoys' could be seen as almost on the brink of outright hostility! But before that Friday 27th, fights between father and son had never become more than a sneer and a harsh threat with wands outdrawn.
On the day Lucius Malfoy lost his temper, his son paid dearly for driving his father into a rage because "He was bored." Little did he know, but the result of this fight would become the bane and the boon of his existence for the next half a year, resulting in a situation most curious and some very confusing events.
When Lucius Malfoy turned his son into a small wyrm and dumped him behind a muggle restaurant with some serious wounds, he started a set of events that would change Draco's life forever and, though he did not know it, the life of a certain girl who thought she had seen the end of the extraordinary.
Though one could not trust Lucius Malfoy, you could be thankful for his ways- especially if you were Draco Malfoy or Hermione Granger.
