Remember Ya'll...The Marauders became animagi at 5th year. This is barely their 3rd!
"Lucy, nice to see you again!" The snobby blonde chuckled. Behind him were two really big guys.
"And you are?" I asked. "Goyle-Crabbe" they grunted. How I understood that was beyond me, I had to bite my tongue from laughter of how stupid they sounded…no offense.
"Oh? Libra, I didn't know we were on a pet name basis? May I call you poppet then?" He winked. You know, I'm starting to think he has some type of nervous twitch or something.
I just laughed at his question, he nods. I guess he thought I agree to it…oh well!"
"So I heard you were looking for Sirius, may I asked why poppet?"
"Well, he sort of took my dog so…" He nodded in understanding.
"Oh! So he finally found himself a mate to match his name then?" Goyle and Crabbe laughed really hard, but from what I can tell they sounded more like they were dying or something.
I know Canis Major and all but really? Constellation jokes? That died ever since Merlin did.
I cross my arms," What is it you need Lucius?" I asked.
"What? Can't I speak to a pretty girl without any ulterior motive?"
"Based on your smirk it appears not."
"Straight to the point I see. Well I was wondering if you would like to meet some of your soon to be fellow Slytherins?"
"Thank you for the kind offer but I promised to meet Professor McGonagall at the Leaky Cauldron at 3:00, I'm sorry." I got up and left. Leaving a stunned Malfoy behind.
I finally found the Leaky Cauldron and inside you wouldn't believe who I saw! Sirius black cuddling to a sleeping puppy and conversing with Professor McGonagall.
"Mr. Black How many times do I have to tell you. Do not call me Minnie!"
"Oh Minnie! Don't reject my love!" he announced dramatically.
Professor McGonagall just pinches the bridge of her nose exhaling a great sigh. Drinking the remaining butterbeer in her glass.
"Hey Libs!" He waved.
"Miss Vicerrente, I pity you for knowing him."
"Also here is your dog. What are you going to name him?" He asked
"You mean to tell me he is yours?" she sighs," It said clear as day, that only cats, owls and toads are allowed!"
I pout, "Please? Al will be all alone while I go to class and…P-Padfoot, yeah Padfoot will keep him company!"
She sighs, and goes to pay for her butterbeer.
"Nice name *cough cough* diversion. Pa-adf-foot" putting extra emphasis on the A and F.
"Gods Sirius, you just left! I even had to talk to Malfoy who gave out a huge corny joke about your name," taking a deep intake of air," He even calls me Poppet! Like what the fuck?"
He barks out laughter," Can he be any more of a loser?"
"You're no better! You stole my jerk!" I couldn't help but crack a smile of how silly it sounded.
"Oh well…Anyways! You aren't gonna hate me anymore when I tell you what I got you-u-u!" He winked.
Biting my lip, I can never deny my curiosity, "What?"
He smiles,"Look." He handed me a heavy bag. Inside was a leash, a magical collar, treats, manuals on how to take care of a dog, and dog food.
"Aw thanks Sirius!" I hug him.
Professor McGonagall comes back with another sigh, "Another girl seems to have fallen for your charm, mister Black. Sadly I enjoyed this one's company."
I break out into laughter, everyone turned around," Professor, I can assure you that I have no romantic intentions with Sirius, I am merely an acquaintance of his." I smile
"Not yet anyway…"he mutters. I sigh.
"Well, let's go, you may bring Padfoot. Till tomorrow, Mr. Black."
"Bye Minnie! Bye Libs!" he waves. As I feel that stomach churning effect from the floo.
"Well I don't know about you but I for one am famished. What do you say about having lunch at my office, you can bring Al?" I smile
"Professor, you had me at lunch. I'll just drop this off and get Al." I exit her office, and head down the hall to Athena.
"Password?" I called. "Parangariqutirimiquaro." The portrait opened revealing Al scrambled on the floor coloring what appeared to be a magical creatures coloring page. "Probably from Hagrid. How nice." I thought
"Hey Pal!" "Hey Libs, guess what Hagrid got me!" He said without looking up.
"Hm, let me guess…a coloring page?"
"No fair! You looked!"He whined, still not looking up.
"Well since you don't seem interested. I won't show you what I got us." I dramatically sighed as if in disdain.
A couple of minutes passed, "What?" Al certainly has my curiosity as well.
I chuckle, "Meet Padfoot." Taking out a sleeping puppy.
"Is he dead?" I chuckles," No silly! He is sleeping. Let's let him sleep on the couch okay?" He nodded in agreement as he slowly petted the sleeping pup. "Oh by the way. Professor McGonagall invited us to have lunch at her office. Would you like to come with me?"
"Of course Libs! You know how I love eating!" he grins.
Al was a serious glutton but since he has always been an active kid he has always been able to get rid of the weight fast. Thought it made him eat even more.
"Well then let's go." I grab his hand as we walk through the portrait. Imagine it closing on you as the walk through? That's why I always make sure of walking a bit faster than usually as I cross over.
Right on we walk head first into someone's chest. With a great oomph, "mind you child! Watch where you're going!" "I am so sorry sir." I looked up focusing on his features. He had long platinum blonde hair to his shoulders, grey eyes, he was wearing dark green robes, and was holding a cane with a snakes head on the top with ruby eyes. He reminded me a great deal of Lucius…I wonder.
"By any chance, do you happen to be Mr. Malfoy?" I ask.
He smirks, "Yes I am, Mr. Abraxas Malfoy at your service. And you are?" He grabs my hand and kisses my knuckles.
"Libra Vicerrente sir, it is a pleasure to finally meet you." It's my turn to smirk, " I met your son today at Diagon Alley. He was quite…interesting." I wasn't lying he was interesting…but not for the good reasons.
Abrazas was still smirking, "I wonder" I thought. I gently probe into his mind.
"I shall certainly speak to Lucius about this…ooh imagine having her as my son's bride…she appears to be at least fifteen…maybe I can have fun as well." I get out of his thoughts in disgust. I mean what a pedophile. I quickly hide my disgust.
He laughs out loud. Immediately I recognize his laughter.
"He was one of the men that laughed about mummy, Libs" Al said in my mind.
"May I ask what is so funny, Mr. Malfoy?" I ask. He stopped laughing putting on his annoying smirk once again.
"Nothing my dear. I just thought of something amusing" I nod, " Well it was a pleasure meeting you sir, but I have an appointment with Professor McGonagall. Good day." I grab A;'s hand and stride passed him. "Good day to you too, Miss Vicerrente. I hope we meet again very soon."
I open Professor McGonagall's door of her office.
She was sitting there reading the Daily profit.
"I was beginning to think you were kidnapped." She joked.
"You could call it that…" I mutter. "What?" "Nothing!" I smile.
"We met Mr. Malloy." Al said between bites of a biscuit.
"You mean Malfoy?" We nodded. She sighs," Poor Albus, that man always has to deal with Mr. Malfoy's constant complaints.
This is the last remaining chapters i have written so far. So yes this means I GOTTA GET TO WORK :D I have to admit, it's a good past time in class.
Hope you like it.
