Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter
~ This is my first fanfic that I am putting online. I have kinda been writing them randomly as I have a chance. With 2 children under 5 it isn't a lot, but apparently it is enough, since I have 5 notebooks full. I don't have a reliable computer to upload, so they won't be update regularly. I'm sorry. I hate that, but sorry.
Agate
Chapter 1
Draco was dealing the cards to his former classmates. They got together every week to play poker since Greg Goyle's cousin showed them how. Tonight they had two more ex-Slytherins joining them. Adrian Pucey and Marcus Flint had just moved back to England. Blaise had invited them to join Draco and Greg at their flat.
"So Flint, you taking a break from Pro-Quidditch?" Draco asked the large man scowlling at him. Adrian chuckled at his friend. "Nah Draco, Flint here got in trouble for fighting."
"Fight? Marcus Flint? Never!" Greg said not even trying to keep the smile off his face.
"Look are we here to play poker or talk about me?" Marcus said scowling again. The other men chuckled. "Sorry mate, but it is something you would have done in school. I haven't seen you this upset since school. You are really have changed. What happened anyway?" Adrian asked opening another drink that Blaise handed him. "It was the new keeper the team got. That Gryffindor , McLaggen." Marcus growled.
"Cormac? That git is in the pros?" Draco asked shocked. "He wasn't even on the house team for long."
"Yeah, well he isn't good enough. Idiot hit a bludger at me. Knocked me off my broom." Marcus grumbled as the heard the floo come to life. The men turned to see a small girl with long, curly black hair and large brown eyes. Her face was red and tear stained.
"Uncle Draco.. whimper.. He hurt Mum! ...sniffle... She won't wake up!"
Draco scooped the girl into his arms as Blaise and Greg were looking her over. "Are you okay, love?" Blaise asked her as he reached up and wiped a tear from her face. Marcus and Adrian looked at each other then back to the scene in front of them.
The girl nodded. "Your mum is at home, right?" Greg asked her gently. She nodded and tucked her head into the crook of Draco's neck. Greg look to Blaise and he nodded. The two men flooed to 83 Lotus Drive, Surry.
Draco sat in his chair and pulled the girl away a little. "Sweetie, look at me." She look up, sniffling at her uncle. "What happened?" He asked gently.
"Uncle Ron came over and yelled at mum. He said he knew her secret. Mum sent me to the other room. I heard him yelling something about a snake and one stand." She wrinkled her face in confusion. "I don't know what he was talking about but I heard a crash and then the yelling stopped. I peeked out the door and heard the floo. I ran out to see mum and I found her on the ground! She wasn't moving and she wouldn't wake up!" She buried herself in his neck again.
Draco looked up at the other 2 wizards in the room, who looked very confused. "Uhm, Draco, I know we weren't close, but you never told me you had a sibling." Adrian says.
Draco shook his head. "No Pucey. This is Agate. She is my friend's kid." He told them cautiously.
Adrian and Marcus looked confused. They didn't know any ex-Slytherins that had a kid named Agate. Draco looked at the small child in his arms. "Honey, while Uncle Blaise and Uncle Greg check on you mum, would you like to meet my friends?" She slowly leaned back to look at her uncle with tear stained cheeks and nodded.
She looked at the other men in the room and smiled. Adrian laughed and walked over. He held out his hand to her. "Hello Pretty Witch, I'm Adrian." She smiled and gave him her hand. He brought it to his lips and kissed it. She giggled and buried her head into Draco's neck but kept smiling at him.
Marcus got up slowly. He was a little worried, most kids didn't like him. He was a large guy at 6'3" and 220 lbs, he tended to intimidate people and scare kids. He smiled at her. "Hi Agate, I'm Marcus" He held out his hand and was shocked when she took it. She smiled sweetly at him and muttered, "Hi, " before blushing.
Draco laughed. "You two have a way with the witches, no matter the age." He leads them to the living room and sat on the sofa. Agate slowly released uncle and sat next to him. She reached down and smoothed her dress and sat up strait. Draco chuckled at her trying to act like his mother.
"Did you go to school with Uncle Draco?" She asked. Marcus and Adrian just stared for a minute, before Adrian spoke. "Uhm.. Yeah, we were a few years older though. How old are you?"
"It isn't nice to ask a lady her age." She tells him, before jumping up and down. "Do you know Uncle Ollie! He lets me ride his broom. It goes really fast!."
Marcus spoke up. "Uncle Ollie? Oliver Wood?" She smile and sat on Marcus's lap. "Yeah. Does he like you? He doesn't like Uncle Draco." She then stood up and whispered in his ear. "Uncle Draco says I'm going to be in Slytherin. Then he thanked him for teaching me, so I can beat Gryffindor's team in school." The large laughed at the small witch. He then repeated it to the other men, who burst out laughing.
Everyone froze when the floo came to life again, when Blaise stepped out. Agate ran to him as he scooped her up. "Uncle Greg is taking her to the hospital. She is awake." Blaise turned to Draco. "You need to call the Auror Potter." Draco nodded. Blaise turned back to the child in his arms. "I have to go back with your mum." She nodded and hugged him. Then opened her arms to Adrian. He walked over and took her. Blaise turned nodded to the men then flooed out.
