His mother had been gone for a year. The war had been over for nearly 5. After a short stint in Azkaban, Draco had fled Britain with vengeful Death Eaters on his heels. After Australia proved to have too many dangers, he had immigrated to the US, finally landing himself in a quiet suburb of Seattle. He quietly settled in, taking a muggle job when his money ran low. As time passed, he had grown less fearful, and became more comfortable in his new life. The bigotry and prejudices he had been raised with had slowly faded, and he was finally ready to try to integrate into wizarding society again. There was only one thing he had to do before he could find other wizards. He picked up the image that he was going to have tattooed over the Dark Mark that still was emblazoned on his arm. He smiled at the simple twisting vines that formed his mother's name, with a large rose to cover a good chunk of his arm. He set it back down, and pulled his shirt on. The bright irish green looked good with the sandy blonde he had charmed his hair to, as well as the slight tan he had earned working in Louisiana the year before. He slipped his wand into his pocket, and headed out the door.

Lexi looked up as the bell on the door rang. The man who walked in looked nothing like Jax's normal cliental, but who was she to judge. She was sitting behind an oak desk, a curtained doorway behind her. The walls were covered in small framed drawings, showing off what the artists who worked her could do.

"Name?" she drawled.

"Draco Malfoy" she grinned when the man winced at his own accent, so out of place here in Seattle.

"Well then Draco, take a seat, roll up your sleeves, and relax! Neat name by the way" She smiled at him.

Draco watched the girl brush her hair over her shoulder and stand. 'If I didn't know any better,' he thought 'with that hair, and those eyes, I would think she was related to the Weasleys.' He sat down in one of the chairs and with his head down, started rolling up his sleeves.

Lexi started as the man rolled his sleeve up, revealing the Dark Mark on his arm. She flew across the counter, tackling the man.

Draco was flat on his back, the girl straddling his chest, a wand jammed into his chin.

"What do you want Death Eater?" she growled out, her blue eyes sparking. Shocked at the unexpected attack, not to mention the prescience of a witch in such a muggle place, all he could do was squeak out "um.. a tattoo?" A man was suddenly standing over them, with one eyebrow quirked at the scene at his feet.

"Lex, why are you sitting on my client?"

"I, I, I thought I saw a weapon boss" she stuttered out. Draco looked at her, noticing that her wand was once again hidden.

"I'm Jax," the man said offering Draco his hand "come on back" He walked towards the curtain at the back of the store, and disappeared behind it.

"I'll have my eyes on you, Death Eater." she hissed at Draco as he followed Jax back.

A few hours later, Lexi saw Draco reappear. His face was dead white, and he looked like he was in shock.

"worse than the Cruciatus curse..." she heard him mutter. Jax stuck his head out "Lex, give him some of that stuff you make, and schedule him for 4 more sessions about 2 weeks apart, okay?"

"Yeah, no problem man." she turned and sneered at Draco.

"since there is no way I am getting stuck with your evil butt for 8 weeks, I am going to give you a healing potion too, and make your appointments 4 days apart. We will just tell him that you have to get back to your country sooner than expected. Understand me?" All Draco could do was nod and take the bottles she handed him.

"Drink the blue one." she pointed at it. Draco hesitated.

"Oh, like I would lose my job over you, It's not poisoned, its a pain killer." He shrugged, opened it, and drank. He visibly relaxed as the potion took effect.

"the green one is healing. Be back here in 3 days. I don't want your kind around here any longer than need be." She glanced over her shoulder making sure they were alone. " I will be owling Aunt Molly this evening just to make sure your not on the run or anything."

"I served my time. I also betrayed the rest of them. They killed my mum, and are hunting me." he said quietly.

"Well, I'm still keeping an eye on you." She narrowed her eyes. Draco winced, wondering why he hadn't noticed the aura of magic on her before.

"Goodbye Mr. Malfoy." she escorted him to the door and shoved him out.
