Disclaimer: I regret to inform you that I, in fact, do not own Harry Potter, or anything affiliated with it.

A/N: I have decided to redo this chapter. There were a few minor details that needed to be fixed. Also I wanted to make this chapter a bit longer since the last was only like 200 word.

I'm a Zabini

At exactly midnight on October 1, 1981, a tall, thin man with long blond hair and gray eyes appeared in a dark alleyway with a loud 'POP'! Looking across the street, Lucius Malfoy, saw that he had indeed reached his destination. 'The Grand Adoption Agency. Looking down into the small pink basket that he currently carried in his hand, he gave a heavy sigh, before slowly and dreadfully making his way across the street to a place that he dreaded reaching. It would be the place that would haunt his memories for many years to come.

Once he reached the building's stone steps, he carefully laid down the basket and from it he withdrew a beautiful baby girl. Carefully he cradled her in his arms and placed a small kiss upon her tan forehead. The child was only eight months old, but she already resembled her mother. She had received the family's trademark black hair and blue eyes. As he looked at her, she awoke and gave him that little toothless grin that he loved so much. Silently tears fell from his eyes. He had volunteered to drop her off because her parents were not strong enough to do so, but he didn't think that it would be this hard. The little girl was only eight months, but already he loved her. It broke his heart to do this, but he knew that it was for the best and that he had to let her go.

For the next five minutes he rocked the child until she fell asleep. He had always been amazed at how easily this child fell to sleep when he sang to her. His own child's screams would only grow louder when he sang, yet this girl would quickly drift off to sleep. First looking up and down the street to make sure that no muggles were in sight, he withdrew his wand from his pants pocket and placed as glamour charm on the sleeping baby girl. Her black hair quickly changed to a light brown and her lively blue eyes changed to a dull brown. Lastly her tan skin changed became pale, but not so pale that she would be mistaken for a Malfoy. It pained him to see the child he loved like his own look nothing like her birth family, yet he knew that this was something that he had to do.

Lucius knew that he should be happy that she no longer resemble her family, but he just couldn't bring himself to it. No one, but the Malfoys knew that the Zabini's had had twins. As for as the public knew, Chloe and Thomas Zabini had only had one baby. The only child they knew about was Blaise Damien Zabini. At the moment, the wizarding world was not safe for a baby girl to grow up in. With the Dark Lord running around, Rayanna was as good as dead if she grew up in the wizarding world. Both the Malfoys and the Zabinis knew that the Dark Lord would not let the twins grow up together. He would take one and place it in a home of deatheaters. She would grow up in a way that neither family would allow. That all had led him to this adoption agency. By placing her in a muggle agency there was a low risk of her being adopted by wizard and about a ninety nine point nine percent chance of her being adopted by a loving, caring family.

Gently, he placed the child into her basket and attempted to wipe away his tears, but it was no use as more just fell from his eyes. Taking a step back, he placed two charms on the basket. The first charm allowed only a worker from the agency to remove the child. The second charm was placed to keep the basket warm until she was found in the morning. For the last time, he picked up the small child and placed a kiss to her head. Placing her back in the basket, he withdrew from his pocket a stuffed green snake. Embroidered on in black was "We love you, RKZ. From CEZ, TEZ, BDZ, SAS, LXM, NEM, and DXM." He reluctantly turned and made his way across the street before turning to face the agency once more.

"Good-bye Rayanna Kaydence Zabini, someday we will find you and bring you back home where you belong. Until then, good luck. Your godfather will never stop loving you no matter how long you are gone." he whispered as he apparated away with another loud 'POP' leaving behind a small pool of tears.

Lucius apparated back into the manor and walked into the living room where his wife and the Zabinis sat. Seeing him caused Chloe Zabini to go into fits of tears. Her daughter was really gone and who knew how long it would be when she saw her again, if ever. She knew that giving her daughter up was for the best that she could do for her baby, but to her it just felt like abandoning and she couldn't stand it. She loved her daughter so much and all she wanted was to have her back again. It had broken her heart when she and her husband had decided to give Rayanna up.

Lucius quickly left the living room as Narcissa and Tom comforted Chloe. He

made his way up the stairs and down a hall until he reached the room he was searching for. Entering the nursery, he found that he son and his godson were play quitely on the floor with one another. When the two noticed him in the room, they both crawl to him as he sat in the bean bag char in the corner of the room. As the two boys reached them, Lucous coulding help, but look into thier eyes. The sight before him only brought another round of tears to his eyes. When he had looked into their eyes, they had seemed to be questioning him. As if they were asking where Rayanna had gone. Not knowing waht else he could do, Lucius took both boys into his lap and to tickle them, all the while thinking of times when there had been three precious babies instead of two.

A/N: well that is the redone version of chapter one. There were a few things that needed fixing and I'm sure that you all of noticed the differences in the chapters. Anyway, I hope to get chapter seven out soon.
