Chapter Fourteen
Get Up and Tell You Where to Go
"I hate this place," Alice said.
Draco, helping the her through the gate, couldn't agree more.
"Where is Ginny?" Luna asked.
"I have no idea," Draco said.
"Geeze, you are useless," Alice said. She drew out her wand and waved it. Nothing happened.
"Right," Draco drawled. "Like I haven't tried that yet. I can't find her with magic."
"That shouldn't be possible," Luna said.
"Not entirely," Draco said. He'd had a lot of time to think about it. "It's possible that we can't find her because she isn't her."
"That doesn't make sense," Luna said.
"Actually, I think it does," Alice said. "The spells are designed to find a specific person. If you don't know who you're looking for it won't find anyone."
"We're looking for GInny but she's not Ginny right now," Draco said.
"Then who are we looking for?"
"I have no idea," Draco sighed, running a hand through his hair. "I was hoping you'd know."
"Alice, you have to have an idea," Luna said.
"I don't...I don't want to say."
"Let me."
Draco spun, brandishing his wand. A man stood between two trees, arms crossed over his chest. Draco did not recognize him. He was tall. He wore dark pants and a red shirt. He had a crown embroidered on the hem of his shirt.
"You've got to be fucking kidding me," Draco groaned.
"Who the hell are you?" Luna asked.
"He's the Red King," Draco said.
Narcissa Malfoy brushed her hands down the front of her shirt then tucked her shirt into her slacks. SHe checked her belt for her wand and the miscellaneous charms she had tucked into the pockets.
She looked at herself in the full length mirror.
As she stepped through the glowing glass, she wondered if Hatter would remember her.
(A/N: What?! Narcissa knows Hatter? Who saw that coming? Not me. To be honest, that little twist at the end just snuck up on me and then I was like HOLY SHIT! This needs to happen!
To Blood Princess- I'm glad you like it! Sadly, I'm at a creative block with this story. If all goes well I'll get another good chapter going. We'll see!
