Hi! I'm back, as promised, with a new chapter! This one is bigger and i hope you like it.

A.N: They are veelas and Weres, so they do not use wands, their magic, it's wild magic, raw, and the only thing that they have to do to use it is point their hands and will the magic to do what they want with their brains, they do not use spells or whatever.

So, on with the show!

The Bird and the Dog

Chap.2

(Draco's POV)

(Earlier that same day)

Today would be a special day. That was the feeling I got when I woke up. Something great is going to happen today. I thought as dressed myself, but didn't duel on the thought for long.

When I was ready I went downstairs to the dining room, to have breakfast with my family. When I entered the room; a big room, with high windows, a roaring fireplace and a table that could sit twelve people in; my parents are already there waiting for me so that we can have breakfast all together. It's one of our family's traditions, to eat all three meals together as often as possible, that way we can strengthen our family bond.

As I seated myself on the sit at the left side of my father, him being seated at the head of the table and my mother at his right side, I turn to him and ask.

"Father, could I come with you and the other hunters tonight?"

"Draco, you know very well that you must stay and concentrate on finding your mate."

"Yes, of course I know father, but I have been trying for three day now, and I can't seem to be able to find the direction of the pull." I say, frustrated that my father doesn't understand my problem.

"Well, then it seems that it's time for you to spend some time in the library looking for a way to find him or her." My father says, very slowly, as if saying something to a little child.

"And," he continues as he gets up from his sit "why don't you go and talk to Blaise, I heard that he's been having trouble with finding his mate too, you two could help each other."

With that last comment said, my father leaves, giving my mother the perfect opportunity to speak to me alone.

"Don't worry Draco, I'm sure you'll find him sooner than you think." My mother says warmly, trying to calm my despair.

"I know, but it's so difficult to know that he's ther--…. Wait, what? How do you know it's a him?" I ask, finally catching up with what my mother said.

"Oh, you know, I'm a female, it's what my sixth sense is telling me." She says, smiling mysteriously at me.

Sometimes, when she talks like this to me, I wonder if she Sees anything, I mean the Black family is known for having Seer blood, it would be perfectly normal if my mother could See, maybe not like a fully fledged Seer, but little glimpses from the future.

"Very well, mother, if you say so, I shall believe it." And, as I say that, I get up; give my mother a little kiss on her cheek, and leave to go find Blaise.

Blaise's house it's the second biggest house on the village, only second to ours, and it stays right next to the library, although we don't usually use it, 'cause mine is much better. As I walk through the village, I see Blaise talking to Pansy, one of our friends, in front of the library, and walk up to them.

"Hey, Drake." Pansy says as she notice my approach, which makes Blaise turn around to me.

"Oh, hi Draco, I didn't notice you."

"It's okay, I wanted to talk to you," I shot a pointed look at Pansy but she doesn't notice, or at least pretends not to notice, with her you never know.

"Alone." I after seeing that she isn't going to get my look.

"Oh, okay, then I'll see you later Blaise, bye. Bye Drake" She finally leaves. It's not that I don't like her, of course not I love pansy, but, god, is she a gossip-spreader.

"Draco, that was kind of mean of you, don't you think?" Blaise says, sending me a glare, but you can see the laughter in his eyes.

"Of course, you're right, I should go and apologize for my rudeness." I say sarcastically.

"Okay,okay, I get it" he says, laughing, "So, what did you want to talk about?" He asks, now serious.

"Actually, it's my father's idea, he thinks that maybe we could help each other out, you know, about finding our mates."

"Ah, yes, I haven't thought about that, but it's a good idea. So have you got any luck lately?"

"No, not even a direction." I say, dejectedly.

"Yeah, well, you're not the only one," he agrees, also dejectedly," but, hey, we can't give up. What was the clue you got?" He asks as we start walking towards my house.

The "clue", as he said, was the glimpse that all Veelas got from their mate on their seventh birthday, on exactly midnight.

"Well, to be honest, I'm kind of confused, you see, all I got was, the feeling of fur, green eyes and howl. Does that mean anything to you?" At this, Blaise's head snaps sharply at me, and I see a mix of feeling cross his eyes: shock, suspicion, and then confusion.

"That's what you saw?" He asks, very slowly, as if afraid from the answer.

Confused by his reaction, I say, "Yes?" it came out more like a question than a confirmation.

"Ookay, this is getting kind of weird."

"Blaise, what are you on about, you're not making any damn sense." I curse, frustrated that he is making me even more confused than I already was.

I notice that we are already at my doorstep, and open the door so that we can enter and go to the library. I enter first and signal Blaise to follow, we go upstairs in silence, until we reach the library. We enter and sit on secluded corner near the windows, and that's when Blaise speaks again.

"Listen, I know I'm not making any sense, but hear me out first and then you can take your own conclusions, okay?"

"Okay, explain."

"Well, I was shock at first when you told me your clue because, my is very similar."

"How so, similar?" I ask, suspicious.

"Hum, there are a few differences, like I didn't hear a howl, but I saw a full moon, and I didn't see eyes, green or not, but heard laughter. Oh, I almost forgot, the fur that I touched was this orange-brown color, really pretty if you ask me, and the fur was so soft, I think I could pet it for hours, and—"

"Blaise, you're bumbling." I interrupt him.

"Oh, sorry," he, grins sheepishly at me and continues, "so, what about you, tell me more about your glimpse."

"Well, it really is very similar to yours, which is very suspicious; I touch fur although it's black and not orange, I see the green eyes, and I hear a howl… oh, and I smell forest, although first I thought it was earth."

"Yeah, I smell that too!" Blaise says excitedly. "Do you think our mates are together? Or, maybe they're family?"

"I don't know Blaise, I really don't know. Look, let's look for something on the books, okay?

"Maybe we'll find something."

"Oh, okay."

With that said, we summon a few books on tracking and start looking for a way to find our mates. After the first book, I look at my watch and see that it's time to eat lunch. I call some house elf and ask politely for some food. Although we do have a few house elves, they are paid and work for the whole village not just for my family. After finishing lunch I return reading, but just after more two books, I find myself reviving my glimpse of my mate.

Flashback

I was lying on my back, on the bed, looking at the ceiling, waiting for midnight and thinking about my mate. I gazed at the clock on my headboard table; 11:59, it says.

' At any moment now' I think looking at the ceiling again.

And then, it starts.

The first thing I see is black, it shins at the moon gaze, I feel this urge to touch it, and as I don't see anything wrong in that, I do, and that's when I discover what it is.

'It's hair' I think feeling it slide in between my fingers, 'No, not hair, fur'.

While petting the black, soft fur in front of me and wonder to what it belongs to, I see a flash of green, and turn my head away from the fur to see what it was.

Eyes, that's what I see; startling green eyes, in which I think I could drown myself into.

The eyes never leave mines, taking my heated gaze steadily and giving me one of their own. They search me, piercing through my own eyes, and looking into my soul, in search of what, I don't know. But they must've found what they wanted for they're giving me an approval look, as if I'd just passed a test.

And then, I hear a howl. It's an animalistic sound, one which no human shouldn't be able to understand, but I find myself understanding its meaning.

It's a cry for help, of want, no, of need, and an instinct, to go and make the despair of its owner go, away blossom inside my very being.

And, as the vision starts to fade, I smell the scent of earth, no, wait, not earth, forest; it smells of life and water and earth, all together.

But then the vision stops.

End of flashback

As I get back from my memories, I look at Blaise to ask if he found anything, but see that he is no longer reading the book, but looking interestedly out of the window, and into the street of the village. Curious about what could be so interesting on the outside, I follow his gaze, and that a crowd is gathering on clearing. Maybe my father came back early? But it's only 21:00? Hmm… maybe I should go and see what it's going on. I thought as I start gathering my books.

"Hey, Blaise, maybe we should go and see what is going on?" I ask, but it sounded more like affirmation.

"You're probably right, besides it's already quite late, I must go home anyway."

With that said, we start making our way downstairs, to the front door. I was at the beginning of the staircase when the smell hit me, and with such force that I stop midstep. But after the initial chock, I start running to the door, two steps of a time, with only one thought on my mind.

My mate was here, right through that door.

So, when I reach the door, I take one shaky deep breath and open the door.

And, when saw what was in front of me, everything made sense; the fur, the howl, the smell; everything.

For, right in front of me, was my mate, a beautiful black furred, green eyed, wolf. But, one moment I'm looking into my mate's emerald eyes, and the next his eyes are closed, and he's falling, unconscious, in to the dirty ground.


Tuntuntuntunnn.

Is harry okay? Why is he unconscious? And why does Blaise's mate smell like harry?

Find it on the next chapter.
