This story is dedicated to Sugar-N-Spice98! She came up with the story line and I'm just making it into a story!
Dumbledore sat in his office at Hogwarts School of Witch Craft and Wizardry rubbing his aged temples. Voldermort was gaining more support by the day. He was pretty sure even a few students or more were already death eaters. The Order members are severely outnumbered, even if Harry could defeat Voldermort that didn't mean his followers wouldn't go for revenge. He just had to think of a way to gain more people for the light. As he looked around his brightly colored office and all its weird trinkets and the portraits of the past headmasters an idea struck him. Lately he had been observing Draco Malfoy. He seemed to be becoming paler than usual and frightened. Always looking around nervously like someone was watching and waiting for him to do something. All the slytherins looked up to Draco so if Dumbledore could get Draco to switch sides he might be able to find out more information than Snape was able to get and could get the students on his side as well. Now how to do that was a different story. Malfoy wouldn't be easily suede to change sides because of his parent's. Mainly his mother, because Snape had told him that Voldermort had threatened his mother's life if he didn't take the mark.
"Minnie my dear could you come in here?" Dumbledore asked her picture frame on his ornate desk that was cluttered with papers and candy. The Deputy's face turned into a scowl in the picture frame then promptly disappeared. Dumbledore chuckled at the display of his beloved wife. She always did have a mind of her own. The fire place roared to life as Minerva stepped through dusting soot off her burgundy robes, then casting a clean spell on her hair which was in a tight severe bun on top of her head.
"What is it Albus? You know I have schedules to work on. The students will be here in a week." Minerva said in her thick Scottish accent. Dumbledore chuckled at her knowing she had those schedules done since a month after the school year ended.
"Of course you do my dear I just have a quick question and then you may go stare at your schedules." He replied with his blue eyes twinkling. Minerva huffed by didn't say anything as she waited for Dumbledore to explain why he dragged her away from her classroom.
"I need to find a way to bring the students together. A way that would change those following the path of Voldermort minds, so that they may follow the right path." At this Minerva's forehead wrinkled in thought. She too had been worried about some of her students, especially the Slytherins. Although finding a way to change their minds when they were raised since infancy to hate muggleborns and purebloods are better than everyone. It would require some serious altering.
"I think we should pair the muggleborns and halfbloods with purebloods in some sort of project to bring them together and help them realize they're not so different, but how?" Dumbledore stated with his wrinkled hands clasped on his desk. Minerva sat in the plush red chair across from him wondering how to as well.
After some time of just sitting there contemplating on how to set them up in a way that would make it seem for academic purposes, yet help bring them together so that they may see that they're really not so different from each other.
"How about a parenting course? That would bring them together and would be to prepare them for the real world." Minerva said sitting up straighter. Dumbledore nodded in consideration but ultimately shaking his head no.
"That would only help the older students and they might spend too much time with the children or fighting each other. We need something for everyone, so the young ones grow up with the knowledge that magic is for everyone with the ability, not just for those who parents r magical."
"How about an in depth history class? That teaches were magic came from and why we have it. We could partner the students and assign them a magical person way back then to do a report on." Dumbledore looked up at Minerva with that same twinkle knowing that she figured out what they needed. A lot of the magical ancestors didn't have magical parents and they gave off to the now pureblood generation.
"That just might work Minnie. We'll spend the rest of the week deciding who to pair up and what person they need to research. Now I must insist on finding the perfect match for our young Malfoy. He's the leader of the slytherins and they all look up to him. We need someone smart and very stubborn." Minnie's mouth tightened into a thin line knowing who Albus wanted to use. Sighing in defeat she nodded her head in consent.
"Very good it's decided. Lemon drop my dear?" Albus said clapping his hands causing Minerva to roll her eyes and smile fondly at the old man. She just hoped they weren't signing over her favorite student's life.
