The Swan Princess: A Dramione Story
Prologue and First Meeting
Heyo booklovers! I recently heard the song "This is my idea" thanks to a super awesome friend. (You know who you are ) And then I saw it with Draco and Hermione and I fell in love Let me know what you think!
Once upon a time, there was a king named Stefan, who ruled a large and mighty kingdom.
And yet, he was sad, for he was growing old, and had no child to inherit the throne,
Then, happily, a daughter was born,
A princess,
and she was given the name Hermione
Kings and Queens came from all around to offer their gifts to the child,
Among them was the widowed Narcissa,
And her young son, Prince Draco.
It was then, that Stefan and Narcissa happened the same idea:
Draco and Hermione would be brought together each summer in hopes that they would fall in love
And join their kingdoms forever.
But unknown to all was another plan,
that of the evil enchanter, Voldemort.
Hermione's birth was of little concern to him, for he was preparing to take Stefan's kingdom by means of the forbidden arts.
On the eve of his assault, Stefan attacked, and Voldemort's powers were plunged to darkness.
Despite calls for his death, the enchanter was only banished.
Many feared King Stefan too kind,
But in time, the threat was forgotten,
And all hopes turned to that not-so-distant summer
when Draco and Hermione would meet.
"Oh here they come!" A herald yelled as he saw King Stefan and Princess Hermione and their guards approaching. Unfortunately, as he blew his horn, a nest of all things flew out of it. (I don't know why a NEST flies out of it. Could someone explain that please?)
"Dear Narcissa, looking as lovely as ever!" King Stefan began, but was interrupted by the nest falling onto Narcissa's head and she looked up at it and said, "Oh, a nest!" and laughed, Stefan chuckling with her.
"And, who is this terrific young man? Prince Draco, no doubt!" He said, looking down at the platinum-haired young wizard, who seemed to be sulking.
"Welcome to our fair kingdom, dear Stefan and to you, dear princess." Narcissa said, looking at the young witch, who had brown frizzy hair, teeth that were slightly too big for her mouth, and was wearing pink robes.
-"Go on, Prince Draco!"
-"Mother!"
"Hello, Princess Hermione, I'm very pleased to meet you." Draco said sarcastically, still sulking.
"Pleased to meet you, Prince Draco." Hermione replied, curtseying and looking annoyed as Draco ran back to Narcissa, who pushed him back over to her. He slowly raised Hermione's hand to his lips, looking like he was bracing himself. Hermione scrunched up her face and rubbed her hand on her robes as soon as Draco said "Yuck" and dropped it. "I can't believe I'm stuck with her all summer! I bet she doesn't play Quidditch or duel!" Draco thought, looking alarmed as she glared at him and pulled her wand out of her robes. "He looks like a conceited prick!" Hermione thought. "What a total bummer!" He thought and they thought in unison, "How I'd like to run!"
"So glad for you to come!" Draco said, bowing slightly
"So happy to be here!" Hermione said, curtseying.
They crossed their arms, turned their backs on each other and thought, "This is not my idea of fun!""The children seem to get along well." Narcissa said, oblivious to said children dueling. Well, more like sending sparks at each other as they didn't know much real magic yet. "We'll join our lands if this arrangement clicks." Stefan said, stating the obvious, which Narcissa pointed out by saying, "My dear King Stefan, that's my point precisely! It's such good parenting and politics!" They shook hands and said, "So happy we agree, I think we've got a deal!"
"Draco's quite a catch!" Narcissa said cheerfully.
"This is my idea of a match!" They said together, catching the children and holding them away from each other as they tried to pummel each other. "And such fun!" Narcissa added.
For the next three months, the children fought and argued constantly about everything. Draco would tease Hermione about not doing too well on a broom and Hermione would mock Draco about having problems with charms. Needless to say, it was a very long three months and neither child was upset to see the other leave. They now dreaded the coming summer though.
Whew! That's the first chapter! Let me know what you think and if you come up with a better name for Hermione's dad. Peace out, booklovers!
