Winter break was coming up fast for everyone and Emily could not be happier. She was excelling in all her classes even though the teachers loading everyone down with homework. Emily had also taken on the job of helping the class with the animagi and Professor McGonagall was talking about getting Emily a part time teaching job with Hogwarts. Emily and Draco had decided to start a relationship but they kept it a secret so that Dumbledore would still think that Harry had a chance with Emily.

"Emily, could you stay after class?" Professor McGonagall asked politely. Over the last few months they had both grown a respect for one another and Professor McGonagall found that she enjoyed the extra help around the classroom. Emily nodded softly as the bell rang. Everyone filed out of the room leaving Emily the only student left.

"I have some good news, I have been talking to Dumbledore and the School Governors and they think that it would be a great opportunity to let you start your teacher training. Of course, you would have to do them in the evenings and you will have to keep up with your schoolwork. I will be supervising you in your training and by graduation this year you should be completely qualified to teach here." McGonagall informed her. Emily smiled with excitement.

"Thank you so much Professor, you don't know how much I appreciate this." Emily said happily. McGonagall smiled.

"Professor Dumbledore also wishes to speak to you; the new password is gummy bear." McGonagall said. Emily laughed.

"Why is there a new password?" Emily asked curiously. McGonagall laughed.

"Some pranksters left exploding lemon drops in the Headmasters candy dish, they explode when touched. It was quite amusing to see the Headmaster covered in yellow goop." McGonagall explained. Emily laughed lightly. Emily turned to leave the room before stopping.

"When do I start training?" Emily asked quickly. McGonagall looked over her notes a moment.

"We will start after the break, how about every Tuesdays, Thursdays, and a little on Sundays?" McGonagall asked. Emily nodded quickly before leaving the classroom and heading to Dumbledore's office.

"Gummy bear." Emily said not amused at the statue guarding the door. Slowly it moved and granted her access to the Headmasters office. Slowly Emily knocked on the door.

"Come in." Dumbledore said loudly as Emily opened the door. Both Draco and Harry were already waiting. Dumbledore smiled happily at Emily as she came and took the only empty seat between Harry and Draco. They looked about as confused as she was.

"Hello Emily, I see that you have talked to Professor McGonagall. As soon as your training is over I would be overjoyed to offer you a position at Hogwarts." Dumbledore announced. Emily smiled and nodded.

"I would appreciate that Professor, why have you called me here, I don't think I have done anything wrong?" Emily asked sweetly. She could tell that Draco wanted to laugh but since he was a Malfoy, no one else would ever know. She smiled.

"It has recently been brought to my attention that you my dear are indeed not completely a witch. I have been in touch with your aunt and I have been told that you are ¼ demon and ¼ vampire. I did my research and found that both of those species need mates to survive. In your case, there would only be one and he would have to be strong enough to control your powers, keeping you in complete control. The only two powerful enough would be Harry and Mr. Malfoy and doubled with a prophecy I would say these two are very good candidates." Dumbledore explained to Emily and Draco as if they did not know anything about it. Emily could tell that Dumbledore had known long ago and that he had informed Harry of it too. Emily inwardly laughed knowing that her magical inheritance had already declared Draco their mate but do to the fact that no one was to know about them, they remained dormant until it was safe for her and Draco to be together.

"What does that mean Professor?" Emily asked playing the naïve, school girl act that she had grown accustom to. Dumbledore smiled like an idiot.

"One of these young men beside you will be your future husband." Dumbledore answered bluntly. Emily glanced at both of them and almost wanted to laugh at how stupid this whole thing was. Did Dumbledore really think Nevana would not tell her own niece about mates? Emily knew everything about it and who her mate was, but once again, she bit her tongue and continued acting like the naïve student.

"I am aware of all of the mating stuff; my aunt would never leave me in the dark about something as important as that." Emily said casually though it almost sounded icy. Dumbledore nodded.

"Well then you wont have any problem spending time with them. Since you and Mr. Malfoy already are in the same house I believe you will be staying at Hogwarts over the break." Dumbledore informed her. Emily laughed.

"I'm sorry sir, but I already have plans for the break." Emily said sweetly. Dumbledore gave her a look.

"You will be staying." Dumbledore said almost forcefully. Emily could feel him trying to get into her mind so she upped her barriers.

"There is no where in the school rules that says the Headmaster can keep a student from going home." Emily stated sharply.

"You have no home. Your mother is dead and your father will soon follow." Dumbledore said coldly. Draco shot up out of his seat.

"You have no right to say that, nor do you have any right to keep Emily here against her will! My father will hear about this, Professor, so if you still want to remain Headmaster you better watch who you are talking to!" Draco yelled. He grabbed Emily's arm and pulled her out of the office. Once they were gone, Dumbledore turned to Harry.

"Not a word of what just happened, to anybody, do you understand?" Dumbledore asked Harry. He nodded.
