"RON! You idiot!" Hermione screamed in frustration at a rather confused looking Ron.
"What?! What did I do?"
"Ugh! You-"
"What has Ronnikins done now I wonder Gred."
"I dunno Forge, but it seems bad." Said the twins grinning. You could only see their heads poking around the door of their carriage on the train and they had an evil glint in their eyes. Fred froze. There was a smell in the air, something he couldn't quite place yet … his mate! He smelt his mate!

Fred woke up on the night of his 17 th birthday in a cold sweat. His body felt all jittery, something wasn't right.
"George." He called out to his twin who was also sitting up in his bed looking dazed. "George what's happening?"
"M'dear Fred, I do believe that this is going to be our inheritance." George still had the dazed look about him but obviously knew what was happening. Thinking about it so did Fred. Their mum had been talking about it for the past month, how could he have forgotten? She told them that a wizards inheritance could vary from a small boost in one's magic to a big boost in their magic. Sometimes wizards with creature blood in their lineage would receive a creature inheritance, but this usually only happened with the old blood families, which was what the Weasley's were, no matter how much money they had, they were old blood.
"I wonder what inheritance we'll get George, did mum say anything about creature blood?" Fred asked turning to face George.
"Urrrmmm, I think she said something abo-" He was cut off by a horrible scream coming from Fred. "Well I guess that's our answer."
The pain. All Fred could think about was the pain coursing through his body. It felt like he was being ripped apart from every side possible and then stabbed over and over. He heard a ripping sound coming from behind him and the pain intensified tenfold. He heard a soft "Oh Fred" just before the darkness obscured his vision and the pain melted away into blissful peace.

When Fred finally awoke, he was in his bed, but there was no one in the room with him. 'I suppose that's a good thing, I can get to see what happened without mum and everyone all crowding around me'. He sat up only to feel something heavy resting on his back. Thinking it was the duvet or something, he tried to shake it off only to fail. Then suddenly it clicked, wings. 'Right, wings … how very un-manly … damn it!'
"Oh Fred! How positively lovely you look! Such a gorgeous colour!" squealed Ginny rushing over to him only to skid to a halt when Fred growled at her.
"Don't you dare say I look LOVELY!" he spat out as he sat there in his bed, fuming. George walked in right then, going over to his twin and eyeing him sceptically.
"Well you won't need a broom anymore will ya." he said with a grin on his face.
"Humph" was his reply from a very sour faced Fred. "Well what am I and why isn't George like this?"
"Well dear, it seems that the creature inheritance only really affected you, you see George only got some magic boost, albeit a bit more than usual but no creature inheritance. Now abo-"
"So what you mean is I'm the only one looking like a freak?!" Fred ground out, interrupting a now fuming Mrs Weasley.
"DON'T INTERUPT ME! Now, about what you are. You appear to be a Drakon. A Drakon is a humanoid dragon to put it simply. These wings are a part of what you are, if your mate is also a Drakon, then their wings, which will be clear until you find each other, will be a clear colour and then take on the colour of yours. You will also have talons instead of fingernails-"
"WHAT THE FUCK?!"
"FRED WEASLEY! MIND YOUR LANGUAGE!"
"…sorry mum." Replied Fred glumly looking properly scolded.
"Right then, I shall continue uninterrupted. The talons however are only present when you are angry or protecting your mate or family, or maybe just something important to you. The wings can come and go as you please. Happy now?" finished Mrs Weasley.
"Well…I guess it could be worse…I suppose." Replied Fred glumly "Can you all go now? I want to speak to George."
Mrs Weasley, Ginny and Ron filed out of the room leaving it empty apart from the two twins.
"We have to get away from here Fred."
"I know George, but where will we go?" Fred sagged down deflating before George's very eyes.
"We'll think of something, maybe we can go and live with Charlie in Romania, or Bill if we have to, just away. Now that you're a Drakon, we just don't know what they'll do to you! I couldn't bear it if they hurt you, you know how rare Drakon scales are and how much they're worth! They might try to get them of you when you're sleeping or something!" George said, starting to get into a panic. He was pacing back and forth in their room.
"We have to stay here until we finish our 7th year, okay? Then, once we've got our N.E.W.T.S, we can start up a business, a joke shop maybe, become famous jokers, how does that sound? It'll be alright George, we'll be alright. Why don't we owl Bill and Charlie and ask them to come over for a bit, with them around the others won't try anything, and you never know, but even Percy might be willing to help us out. When he comes back from work let's ask him. Sound good?" Fred had obviously been thinking about this while Mrs Weasley had been lecturing them, and come up with a plan to get them through the year.
"If you say Fred, just don't blame me when you wake up strapped to a table."
"Oh George don't be so morbid! Really, and anyway I shall just ROAR and they shall be so terrified that they will let us go and give us all their money! I have it all figured out!" said Fred smugly.
"Oh dear, we're doomed." George groaned hiding his face in his hands.
