Disclam: I own nothing
"California, fetch me my black cape!" Shouted Lucius Malfoy my adopted father.
"What do I look like to you? A house elf? Go and fetch it yourself!" I shouted back to him from my seat in the main living room of Malfoy Manor. I heard Lucius moaning about what an ungrateful little girl I am.
For you to understand what is happening, you will need to go back a bit.
Basically my mum Mary Morgan was a single mother, a single witch mother. But the magic eventually went to her head and eventually drove her mad. I had just turned ten and I had to look after her. Because of this I have never been to school, so I wasn't able to control my magic. I was looking after her until one day when I came home from the shops, she had disappeared and left me alone, not that I cared to be honest. This happened when I was fifteen. So I found myself in Diagon Alley trying to scavenge food off people that was until I bumped onto a blonde headed boy that looked the same age as me. My blond headed hero. He took me back to Malfoy Manor and I have been living there ever since.
Back to the story. Its mid August, Draco my adopted brother is back home from his fifth year at Hogwarts. Even though I haven't been to school Lucius has been teaching me the craft all year so I would be ready to join Hogwarts with Draco in his sixth year. I turned to face Draco.
"Remind me why you don't have an house elf?" I asked him. He let out an angry breath,
"Dobby he was called and somehow he was set free," he answered not looking up from the potion book he was reading.
"Don't you need to give them clothes to set them free?" I asked confusedly.
"Well yeah. That's why the whole situation is confusing. Father won't explain it to me. But all I do know is that it happened when I was in my second year at that school." I nodded in response to his answer, but I realised that he wasn't watching me so he didn't see the nod. We sat there in silence for a few minutes. Well that was until Draco closed his book and faced me.
"Our Hogwarts letters with the equipment should be coming soon, so I do believe a trip to Diagon Alley is in order soon." Draco told me, "What?" he asked because I was shaking my head.
"We can't be seen together ever. It would completely ruin the plan that you have been working on for a year. Besides don't you have to go to Borgin and Burkes when you go Diagon Alley?" I asked. Draco put on his famous smirk,
"Ah yeah the plan to completely humiliate and kill Potter," he sneered. "And why do I need to go Borgin and Burkes?" he questioned. I let out a breath and rolled my eyes,
"To carry out the plan the Dark Lord assigned you. And we don't want to kill Potter, I told you that the other day." I said to him getting up from my chair. My legs were getting tired; I have literally been sitting down all day. Time for a stretch. I walked to the other side of the room and poured myself a drink,
"Do you want a drink?" I asked Draco turning around to face him. He shook his head.
"Why can't I kill Potter?" he asked. I just glared at him as I took a sip of my Pumpkin Juice.
"Are you seriously asking that question?" I asked him. He just gave a look telling me to hurry up and answer. "Well besides the obvious that it's evil, and inhumane. But its murder and you would only being doing it out of spite hate and jealousy."
"Well I have to kill Dumbledore, isn't that evil, inhumane and whatever else you said?" he challenged. I took another sip of my drink.
"Well of course, but that is different. Killing Potter out of teenage jealousy is one thing. But you have to kill Dumbledore because it's the Dark Lord's wish, and you know as well as I do that if you don't do it, he will kill you. And we don't want that do we?" I shot back. Draco let out a sigh before he spoke.
"I guess your right, as always. I'm going to my room." He said and stood up and left. I smiled to myself as I watched him walk away.

It's been a couple of days and we have now got our equipment list. Narcissa said that she would get my robes for me. She already measured me, so all she needs to do is take the measurements to Madam Malkin's and my robes will be made. So the Malfoy's made their way to Diagon Alley by floo powder and left me in the house alone.
I've been in the house alone for the last hour and a half. I was reading, but now I'm, bored. What to do? I thought to myself, and then I had an idea. I can practise some wandless magic. I went into the library and picked up six books or so, and laid them in a circle large enough so I could sit in the middle. I sat cross legged in the middle and closed my eyes. I thought back to my lesson with Lucius. It kind of reminds me of Thai chi, it's all about breathing. I focused on my breathing, breathing in for four slow counts and breathing out for four slow counts. I did around ten repetitions before I would start on the magic. I focused my mind on the books - but also continuing the breathing – each breath I took in, I imagined the books rising off the ground. And every time I breathed out, I imagined the books staying at the same level. I continued this for another couple of minutes before I opened my eyes. I looked down at the ground and saw that the books were no longer there. I looked up and saw that the books had risen around a meter and a half into the air. I smiled to myself and let out a little laugh, before I let the books fall down to the ground. I started to pick up the books, when I heard quite footsteps coming towards me. Hmmm, that's strange, I thought to myself. I was picking up the third book when I heard a rustle and a voice,
"Stu-." The voice started, but before they could finish the word, my wand was already out and pointing at them,
"Expelliarmus!"
