How Did We Come To Be
Ok if you are re-reading this story I re did this chapter. My ending got all twisted and I just decided eh time for a new one J This is waaaayyy shorter than my normal writing because it isn't! My co-writer ,and best friend, wrote it since I write most of the time so show Kyara some love and enjoy this chapter. She will write more and more often so enjoy this small treat for now (Huge grin) Ok well here ya go….
Narcissas POV:
"Whe'e mum ma" A tiny Lyra cried in the air.
"In a happier place dear, in a happier place" I cooed to Lyra. She was three years old today, her mother, still under the imperious, was dead. Never to be with Lyra, and her good for nothing father would never give Lyra the time of day. I never liked Rodolphus, he had been a crappy husband to Bella. He put Alecto under imperious so she would produce an heir and have perfect kids. I don't let him around Lyra, she will be the Black sheep of the Lestrange family. It's the least I can do for her mother.
"Will da da bring her home soon" Lyra smiled up with her baby teeth showing. How do you tell a small girl like her she will never get to meet her mum? Get to be close with her father? Never live a normal life?
"No, he is to busy to find her and bring her home, but you will always have me" I tossed the small girl in the air and caught her. She giggled and squirmed as I tickled her. She let out a cry of happiness and smiled up at me. She had her fathers strange brown eyes. Her mothers blonde hair, a Carrow treat if you will. She is small but smart. She is beautiful, no one even questions that.
"Cis'a I hungry can I have cake?" She peered into my eyes and put on her best puppy dog face. I threw my head back as I laughed at the small girl.
"Yes dear it will be tasty too" I picked her up and to the kitchen we went. Karina(Lyras older sister)
and Hydrus(Lyra's twin) were already eating cake. Karina takes in her mothers dark ,almost black, blue eyes and her fathers black curly hair.
"Karina dear, where is Orion?" I asked her knowing the two of them were close.
"Upstairs with Lucy getting ready" She smiled at me, the kids all called me Cissa and Lucius, Lucy. It was a nickname he hated with a vengeance. So we all naturally used it. Orion the oldest of the four was older than Lyra by three years and Karina is older than Lyra by one. Hydrus being her twin is older by thirty minutes. Lyra is the sweetest of the three and got the worst end of the deal. I hope one day she will be friends with Potters and Weaslys so she will have a chance at life. Hell I hope she marries one of them, but knowing Draco he will never allow it. The kids are moving in with him since I had gotten a teaching position at Hogwarts as Transfiguration teacher. I will be deputy head mistress and head of Slytherin.
"Thank you dear, you all look very nice" Karina smiled with her chin up, Hydrus smiled then ate some more cake while the house elves cleaned up. Lyra was wearing a black Flaming Fairy dress that Astoria bought her a few weeks ago, Karina was wearing a Dashing Darkness red dress that suited her. She reminded me of my sister, Bellatrix. Little Lyra reminds me of myself, she looks just like me except for the eyes. Hydrus was wearing dress pants and a black shirt. Astoria was bringing my grand babies over to Lyras and Hydrus's party, the Mcnairs, Nott's, Zabini's, Goyle's, Mulicibers, Yaxely's and Baxley's while I went out to see someone for …. Business.
Astoria's POV:
"M'm whe'e we going?" Lacey mumbled in my shirt. She was just a tiny two year old that I love to pieces. She is getting Draco's straight white blonde hair and sparkling grey orbs, you could mistake her as a Vela if you were far away. Scorpius, being her twin looked exactly the same but a little bigger, her being petite. Virgo has gotten my dark brown hair that is off the walls curly just like Draco's aunt Bellatrix and Andromeda. She is very like Andromeda, she isn't like a Malfoy she has my Greengrass eyes, forest green. She is the sweetest girl, but so is Lacey. My eldest Cassiopeia reminds me of the devil sometimes. She tries to push Virgo down the stairs, off her mini broom smoother Lacey. She has Draco's blonde hair but has piercing ice blue eyes. Who knows where they came from, I do believe from Narcissa but yikes.
"We are going to your cousins party then bring them home to live with us. O.K." I smiled at the small girl who loved her cousins.
"O.k." She giggled.
"Virgo dear we must be off soon, we are to be early" I yelled upstairs.
The girl ran down the marble, spiral stair case smiling. She was wearing a Flaming Fairy much like her cousins today and her hair flowed down and her eyes sparkled with happiness. Draco finally came down the hall with a small Scorpius in a suite of black and silver. I smiled at my husband of five years tomorrow.
"Hello darling, are you ready" He hugged her, the children being in the way of course.
"Um do you know where Cassi is at the moment" I hadn't seen the devil child in a day or so. She doesn't spend time here a whole lot.
"Oi, I forgot to tell you! I took her to stay with Andromeda, the girl needs to detox for awhile" Draco shook his head, he wasn't wrong at all means.
"Well then lets go" I said joyfully stepping in the fireplace with my two daughters "Black Manor!"
Harry Potters POV:
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
"Ill get it" I yelled down the hall as I walked. I grabbed the handle and yanked the door open.
"Hello Harry Potter" The grim voice of Narcissa Malfoy rang clearly and elegantly. She had just turned 45 but she still looked 35. Her blonde and Brown hair twisted elegantly in a half down half up style Ginny had tried many a time but never succeeded. She looked calm and well put together obviously not caring her husband was under investigation at the moment. While her face says that her eyes say she is tired of the media inter viewing her a million times about her husband and grand children.
"Hello Narcissa Malfoy" I greeted warmly. "What brings you by on such a fine summer day" I smiled at the women who looked a little more relaxed.
"I need a favor of you Harry" She said sadly, I had never seen her look this upset.
"Please do come in Narcissa we can sit while I hear of what you need." She smiled grimly and nodded as I led her through the door and slammed it. We sat in my study and she took a deep breathe.
"Im sorry if I came at a bad time but, I have to give up the Lestrange children" She sobbed. My heart froze. She was the only relative the Ministry found stable enough to take care of the children. The only one who didn't give a shit about blood purity.
"Why must you do that Narcissa" I asked quietly.
"I got a job at Hogwarts, Draco has custody of them now. Astoria is a sweet girl, will take very good care of the kids. She will give them a chance at normalcy as will Draco. Tori has calmed him down a great bit and they know share my view on things, except on one thing" Astoria had been part of the DA when we had been younger, she had been sweet . So im not worried about that, just yet.
"What is that one disagreement on Narcissa" I asked worriedly. If it had worried this strong lady so much it had to be pretty bad.
" Draco thinks Rodolphus and Rabastan have rights to see the kids" She sobbed quietly. The Lestrange brothers? The idiots who have eluded the ministry for years now?
"But they are fugitives-" She shook her head and sobbed.
"I can lure them to you as long as you make sure they are locked away forever" I smiled sympathetically at her.
" I can do that Narcissa, now go say goodbye to those children and we will be in touch."
"Thank you so much Harry, I look forward to seeing them in Azkaban" She smiled gently and left my office .
