A/n: may have some slash. This is a kind of romance/relationship between Luna and a character of mine. I don't know how long it will be or if it is good, but im gonna try to keep it up, or get rid of it if no one likes it. I hope to have reviews, polite if story is hated please. And again there may be slight slash.
Hogwarts Vamps
Chapter One: Wiggy-wargs
Dumbledor stood before the students of Hogwarts and spoke, "Welcome to another year at Hogwarts, I have just one thing to say before we feast, the leader of a vampire coven has asked to seek refuge here with the few surviving members of his coven. They have offered to protect us to their ability if we offer the same. So they will be staying here, they should be here in..." He was cut off by the doors of the Great Hall bursting open with a loud bang and ten black clad men strode into the Hall and looked around.
"Ah Zodiac, I was beginning to worry," said Dumbledor with a smile.
"No need to worry Albus, traveling silently and stealthy is a gift of ours," the vamp in front said, returning the smile.
Zodiac noticed the way people were looking at them and his smile grew. The fact that they were Goth might have been part of the reason as well, Zodiac mused as he looked around again before Dumbledor spoke again.
"We were just about to have dinner, would you care to mingle with the students before retiring to your chambers?"
"Sure Professor. We have time. What do you guys say?" the last being directed at the remaining members of his once great coven.
They agreed and wandered off in different directions.
Zodiac headed for a table on the far left of the Hall and sat down next to a tall red headed boy.
"Hello, my name's Zodiac, what's yours?" he asked, holding out his hand.
"Uh- I'm Ron Weasley."
"Nice to meet you, and you are?" he asked around at the nearby people. A bushy haired girl answered first, "My name is Hermione Granger. I've never met a vampire before. How old are you?"
"Well Miss Granger, I'm glad to be the first vampire you've met and I am six hundred and twenty-four years old." The people around stared.
"Really?" asked a black haired boy.
"Yeah, what is your name?"
"My name's Harry Potter."
"Ah, the boy-who-lived, please tell me, how long have you lived?"
"Sorry?"
"How old are you?" Before Harry could answer, however, Zodiac felt a tap on his shoulder and turned in his seat as a dreamy voice asked, "Are you really a vampire? Have you ever seen a crumple-horned snorkak." Ron sighed beside him.
Zodiac was amused as he asked, "What's your name Miss?"
"My name is Luna Lovegood."
"Well Miss Lovegood, I really am a vampire and I don not think I have ever heard or seen a crumple-horned snorkak, though I might have seen one without knowing what it was," Zodiac said with a small smile, amusement alight in his red eyes.
"Do you have fangs? If you do, may I see them?" Luna asked, still sounding as though lost in a daydream. Zodiac pulled his black lipsticked lips back to bare his four fangs. Two long ones where his canines should have been and two short ones on front of them. Luna reached out and touched one.
"Sharp," she observed. Zodiac was starting to like this odd girl and nodded. He was about to say something when his coven came over and one spoke.
"We would like to see where we are staying now, I'm getting a little weary of all these people," he said. The others nodded.
"Well, I don't know where it is, Dumbledor said it was an unused tower by the Ravenclaw tower, but I've never been here and have no idea where anything is."
"I know where it is," Luna said. The others looked at her. "I used to hunt for wiggy-wargs there, they like dark unused places," she added.
"Would you please show us where this tower is then Luna?" Zodiac asked as he stood up.
"Sure, follow me." And with that she turned and walked away, the others trailing behind her.
"What's a wiggy-whatever?" someone asked as they went up a staircase.
"Oh, they're creatures who live in dark abandoned or unused places, they make invisible webs and trap unsuspecting people in them and turn them into more wiggy-wargs or they'll steal your hair pieces. I think the ones in the tower left though, I guess I visited too often." Zodiac wanted to laugh, what an odd, amusing girl, he thought again.
They went up more stairs and along more corridors until they reached a black door and Luna stopped.
"Here it is."
"Thank you Luna, would you like to come in for a minute?"
"Oh no thank you, I think I'm going to go back down to dinner and see if they have any pudding. Have a nice night," she turned to go but stopped when Zodiac asked, "Would you show us around the castle tomorrow?"
"Sure, it is a Saturday tomorrow so there won't be any classes."
"Cool, 'night Luna."
Zodiac watched her walk away before entering the tower, the others already inside.
Zodiac looked around impressed, Dumbledor, or whoever, had done a good job decorating. The walls were black, the carpet red. The furniture was covered in a soft charcoal grey materiel and there was a large red ice-box in one corner to keep blood cold when it wasn't being consumed. There were three red doors that led off of this room and Zodiac went to the nearest and opened it. It was a bathroom in the same colors as the sitting room. Zodiac went the next room, a large bedroom with enough beds for all of them.
Behind the third door was a large walk in closet with all of the covens clothes and things.
"Well guys, shall we sleep then?" Zodiac asked.
The others agreed and some went into the bathroom to brush their teeth, very important if you drink blood, while others just went into the bedroom and dropped onto beds.
Soon everyone but Zodiac was asleep. He lay awake thinking about how their coven had been all but completely destroyed and that they had had to come to a school for safety. But it hadn't been too bad, the kids were nice, and that one girl, Luna, had been a refreshing person to meet in such a dark world. He had never met anyone like her in all of his six hundred some years and was oddly fascinated by her.
Interesting girl, he thought before turning over onto his side and falling asleep.
A/n: I made up the wiggy-wargs while writing this story and thought it would work for Luna. Anyway, please tell me what you think and if I should continue.
