Narcissa's Answers and A New Black Heir emerges
Draco saw his mother in the dark alley. He went directly to her.
"Draco you needed to speak with me"
"Yes Mother but can we not speak here"
"This must be important if you wanted to speak in alley's"
"Yes could we go to the Grimauled place"
"Why not Manor"
"Father will know"
"Then I have a place in mind" She says as they apparition to a different place.
"Where are we mother?" Draco asks as he looks all over the place.
"My cottage my mother handed down to me" Narcissa says.
"Mother You know Salazar Slytherin"
"Yes I do why"
"You know he's related to the Black family"
"And how do you know Draco"
"He told me and I've had dreams throughout my life"
"It's a family curse only passed down to the one that closely looks like his nephew"
"Who cursed him" Narcissa didn't say anything but Draco knew she knew something.
"An ancestor of Tom Riddle his great-great-great grandfather cursed Salazar and sealed Ms. Grangers fate no matter if you are in love with her or not she will die"
"I can stop it"
"No one can stop it. It's the way of life"
"What if she were with child"
"She could die after or before Draco"
"Mother I don't want these dreams anymore, I want to break the curse"
"Even if it means losing your life"
"Yes Mother even if means that" He says and Narcissa frowns.
"I guess my friend Kat was right"
"Right about what"
"We all have a little courage in us all"
"As in Gryffindor"
"And Ravanclaw Ms. Granger's ancestor" Draco's eyes were wide.
"But why put her in Gryffindor then"
"She has courage but she also cunning and kind has a little of everything in her but you know no muggle born has ever been admit to Slytherin"
"I know that"
"You want to know why we've kept our connection a secret"
"Yes"
"To protect her of course"
"Then why does she always die to early" Draco asks bitterly.
"Salazar's greatest anguish is to see her die"
"But why has she been reborn but not Slytherin"
"That's part of the curse to be a part from her to see her have a family of her own to suffer"
"How can I break it"
"I don't know but you did help him out once upon a time"
"How"
"You became one with him" Draco frowns and his mother continues.
"Your more then a Slytherin Draco your smart like Ravenclaw, courageous like Gryffindor, and sweet like a Hufflepuff" Draco huffs and his mother only laughs.
"I am so not a Gryffindork"
"Well then why are you trying to get Slytherin back here and why do you want to protect her"
"I can still protect her by being a Slytherin" He says stubbornly and Narcissa only shook her head.
"You are also stubborn Draco a great trait in Gryffindor" She says pouring him some hot chocolate. He took it. He looked at his mother.
"Before I go back do you know of her childhood home"
"Yes three or four doors down from this street Draco"
"You mean we're in a muggle neighborhood" He says bugged eyed as Narcissa rolled her eyes.
"Yes why do you think your father doesn't know of this place hm why do you think I kept this place from you"
"Who owns Hermione's ancestry home"
"It belongs to her father although him and his wife don't come there often they do keep it up"
"Then why not sell it"
"Its been part of their family for generations they to have a secret yet not discovered by the Blacks"
"Where do I begin to save her from her fate to save him from seeing her suffer once again"
"My sister might know someone but it's also wise not to mess with destiny" Draco's eyes went wide.
"But we are wizards"
"But we still have our fates" Narcissa points out to her son.
"Maybe I can convince fate to let her live a little bit longer"
"True but she doesn't always die a horrible death" Narcissa says and Draco nods his head.
"Fate is a belief just like destiny"
"But don't you believe in the gods"
"OF course I do but its only a silly myth to us Pureblood's "
"Only because we think we are superior and we are"
"And I would say we are not now Draco I think its time you get back to Hogwarts she will lead you to the one that can help you but be for warned Draco she probably knows nothing of this world probably won't believe you"
"And why is that"
"Andromeda wanted it that way she is a squib to our standards"
"Then why inherit Grimauled Place and Black Inc."
"She is by blood a Black" Narcissa says
"But isn't your mother my grandmother a bigot"
"That's true that's why she was never told of the secret father was not but he acted the part and he was an arrogant bastard" Narcissa smiles.
"Why not give this cottage to Bellatrix or Andromeda"
"Really Bellatrix let me tell you she'd die before stepping foot in this place, and Andromeda well it is partly hers only the known protectors of this family can know the secret and see this place"
"o" Draco says and Narcissa ushered him out the door. They walked towards the train station where they would apparated to Hogsmeade.
In the rain a woman sees Grimmauled place. She looks at her mother Andromeda.
"How is this possible" She asks Andromeda
"You do have magic in your blood but a different kind"
"But I never wanted this"
"You're the only true Black left"
"Why not you or your sister and her son"
"I'm dying and they gave it up the moment she married that retched man Luscious"
"O" The girl says.
"Pamela darling you wanted a place to hide from your husband's hounding this is the place to do just that"
"But it looks like its occupied"
"They don't own the place watch" Andromeda points as the Weasley's and the Order along with Harry Potter was thrown off the premises"
"Now wait"
"How did it do that"
"I took permission away" Andromeda says
"Why"
"To show you see the gates won't open for them" Pamela looked at her mother.
"This is your place baby girl to do as you please" Andromeda says. Pamela walks up to the iron gates as a man she did not recognize was trying to open it. As soon as she touches the gate, it opens for her. It opens in a dramatic way and as soon as the others try to step in they are automatically pushed off the property and the gates slammed closed immediately. She turned around to look at the strangers who had shocked faces and then she turned back to the home. It was dark and dreary. She wanted to go home but knew John Ross would locate her if she did that.
"I want to buy the casino in Las Vegas mother and I want to turn Black INC. into a profitable company again the Malfoy's no longer have claim to it. They will be investing in a non-magical business."
"A muggle"
"Yes whatever that is I want to make a good hiding place from John-Ross"
"Fine"
"I want the Malfoy's crushed as well I want them to know I am to take over the Black company and they won't be able to stop me" Andromeda just smiled. She took her daughter by the hand and disappeared into thin air. They landed outside Gringot. Pamela followed her mother into the odd place.
The goblins were all busy one looked up to see Andromeda.
"We would like to make a claim for Black INC." Andromeda announces
"The Malfoy's Mrs. Tonks have that claim now" One of the goblins says.
"IT states in my father's will that the rightful heir would have it did it not"
"Yes the rightful heir has not been found"
"Take my daughter's blood and you will see" She says as the goblin took her daughter's blood and lo and behold she was the rightful heir.
"We'll get the paperwork right away"
"I would like to change it into a company of non-magical if possible" Pamela states
"Yes its possible but unusual"
"I understand"
"And we are in time of distress"
"I do not care what time we are in its my company I'll do as I'll please" Pamela states and the goblin nods his head. Andromeda only smiled. The Dark lord won't know what hit him and neither will Luscious. After all Black Inc. will not be funding the Dark Lord anymore and her sister has been running it for the last twenty years with Luscious at the helm who a year prior to NArcissa taking over had run that and MAlfoy company into the ground. Narcissa had taken over both but Luscious was the public face and had made shady deals with the wrong people. Narcissa allowed it until it was time to shock him and the wizard world and this is where Pamela will do just that. The dark lord will no more have the backing of the Black's nor Malfoy's any longer. Narcissa will make sure of that. She is neither here nor there when it came to the Order and the dark side. She just was like Andromeda should have done all those years ago but she fell in love with Ted and married him. Narcissa was a true Slytherin at heart she played everyone like a fool a pond. Now it was time for Pamela to do the same to take the Black family business to the muggle world to shock the wizard world.
"Excuse me ma'am here are the papers" The goblin gives them the papers and Andromeda filled them out with Pamela's signature.
"When will this be final " Pamela says. The goblin looked confused.
"It's yours now The Malfoy's are getting the news now no doubt Luscious Malfoy will fight tooth and nail" The goblin says.
"I do not care I'll keep the magical side running but we won't be supporting anyone I will be pulling out"
"Is that wise Pamela"
"No mother but I do want to make a splash I want one department for magic I want to get rid of everyone on the top clean slate" Pamela says
"Maybe we should strike when the time is right"
"The time is right mother get rid of the top move the headquarters to Nevada I want a group to run this place not just me"
"Fine but who"
"I will decide who" Pamela says getting on her cellphone making the necessary calls sand buying a new building under the Halliwell name. She walks out of the building striding outside. She saw some wizards coming towards her and she jumps before they could give her the killing curse. Her mother walks out smirking.
"I believe you tried to kill my daughter" Andromeda says pointing her wand at Luscious men jinxing them until some Arurors got there. They were arrested and Andromeda only smirks at them.
"Mum"
Andromeda turns around to see her daughter Nymphadora.
"Yes Dora"
"Why didn't you say anything"
"You and the Order would have found her"
"And she's a squib"
"Yes I wanted to protect her"
"Why can't I get into Grimmauld place any longer nor the Order"
"You can you just can't invite anyone since you are not the owner"
"But Sirus"
"He did own it"
"HE gave it to Harry"
"Who is not a Black by blood Dora sweetheart he has no true connection"
"But"
"I don't want to discuss this here Grimmuald place has given its answer" She says before she apparatus away leaving Nymphadora lingering. She had to find her sister convince her to back the order to give the home to the Order.
