25. Chapter 25

Draco and I had finished our dinner that I was eating and I noticed that pudding appeared and I grinned, "oh I do love chocolate cake" I said to him and Draco looked to me and shook his head, "I cannot believe that you and Remus are this excited over chocolate" he said to me and I laughed as I looked to him, "do remember that chocolate is the one thing that controls the wolf" I whispered to him and he looked to me, "really" he asked and I nodded, "yeah it helps, I mean the chocolate makes them sleepy so we can have our own experiences" I explained to him.

Draco looked to me and smirked as I noticed that Daphne was looking at me with a weird look on her face, "do I ask" she said and I smiled, "not at the moment, there are a few people in this place that I don't trust and being in the great hall means that anyone could listen to us" I explained and she nodded, "I am aware of that" she said and smirked as she went back to speaking to one of the older years. I turned my attention back to the 1st years and noticed that Stephanie was once again not speaking to anyone and I sighed as I turned to my best friend, "please can you make sure that Stephanie is okay when I am not around" I asked and Draco looked to me, "I feel like she doesn't trust many people in this house" I said to him and he smiled, "you are worried about her" he asked me.

I looked to Draco and sighed, "well yeah I am, I mean I don't trust the idiots what called her these names" I said to him and he looked to me, "I heard what she was getting them to call her, I can't believe she would do that with the head of house so close" Draco said to me and I sighed, "well when they come back from being spoken to Severus I hope that they say sorry to her" I said and Draco looked to me, "I don't think that they will" he said and I sighed, "well I don't think that she deserves to be picked on just because she is muggleborn and put into our house" I said and he nodded, "of course I will make sure that she is okay Dora, you know that I will" he said and I laughed as he knew that I felt some pull to her.

I looked back to him and smiled, "well I need to make sure that everything is ready for this evening" I said to him and he nodded, "do we know where they are going" he asked me and I nodded, "yeah they do" I said and smirked, "I need to speak to Paddy as well" I said to him and he laughed, "well I am sure that he is still sore after being beaten by you" he said to me and I laughed as I nodded, "I know that is why I need to make sure that he doesn't think that I am upset with him" I said to him and he nodded, "well I am sure that Pads will make you pay around for a while but he is probably proud of you" Draco said to me and I smiled as I looked to him, "thank you Dray" I said and smiled, "so you're okay looking out Stephanie" I asked and he smiled, "of course I will make sure that Steph is okay for you, I will make sure that they leave her alone when they come back" he said to me and smiled, "because I am sure that they are going to start again if they know you're not here" he said to me and I smiled, "thank Dray, I owe you for this one" I said to him.

Draco laughed as he looked to me, "you owe me for a lot of things" he said to me, I laughed as I got up and walked down to the 1st years and smiled as they all looked up to me and was wondering what I was doing there, I bent down next to Steph and smiled, "Stephanie are people treating you any better" I asked and she smiled, "a little, I finally don't have the others growling or telling me that I don't fit into this house" she said to me and I smiled as I put my hand on her shoulder, "right well as I am not always going to be in the same place as you and if I am not here, if you have any issues with any of the members in the house, please speak to Draco as he is the one that will help you if I am not around" I explained to her and she smiled, "thank you Dora, it means the world to me that you have looked after me" she said to me.

I smiled as she looked to the other table and I smiled, "so did you manage to make any new friends" I asked and she shook her head, "no not yet, just worried about what other people are going to say" she said and I smiled, "remember what I told you Stephanie" I said and she looked to me, "that I can be friends with anyone I want to be" she said and I smiled, "that's correct" I said to her, "and I am sure that any of the heads of houses will be happy for you to be friends with their students and if you don't want to go on your own I don't mind taking you to them" I explained and she smiled, "of course if I need the help I will come and find you" she said to me and grinned, "thanks" she said to me and went back to eating with a few of the other 1st years.

I smiled as I walked over to the head table where all the teachers were sat and smiled at my parents as they were wondering what it was that I wanted, I looked to dad and smiled, "do you mind if I borrow Paddy for a minute" I asked and dad laughed as he looked to me, "is this about earlier when you were able to beat Pads in a fight" Dad said to me and I laughed as I looked to him, "well he was the one not looking what he was doing because he was trying to boast that he thought he won" I said and smirked as Paddy was mumbling at me, "well he was always like that in school" Professor McGonagall said to me. I laughed as I looked to dad, "no it isn't about earlier in class" I said and looked to Paddy, "we are having some trouble with students being called names that well I don't like and your aware of that" I explained to him and he nodded, "yeah I am aware of that one, what's going on Pandora" Paddy asked and I sighed, "Well Stephanie believes that she doesn't belong in our house" I said to them all as I knew that the other teachers were listening to me as well.

Paddy looked to me and smiled, "is this the same girl you brought to class this morning" he asked and I nodded, "yeah she is and well I thought that Paddy could help with the fears that she has" I asked and looked to him, "being that you have been able to get pass your own problems of people and them judging" I said and dad smiled as he nodded, "I think that is a good idea and I am sure that if you ask Padfoot, he will give you his answer" Dad said to me and I turned to Paddy again and smirked as he looked like he was pretending to think about this. Deciding that I would let him pretend I looked to him and smiled, "so then Paddy, can you help me" I asked and he smirked, "of course i would speak to her for you" he said to me and smiled, "are you sure that Snape wouldn't mind" he said and I smiled, "I am sure that he wouldn't mind you making one of his students feel better about being in the house then tormenting them" I said to him.

Paddy got up and nodded as he looked to me, "of course I will help you Dora, you know I would speak to her about that as I don't like it when kids are showed up because they are different" he said to me and got up walking over to me, "first we need a conversation pup" he said and I rolled my eyes, "don't call me pup Paddy, I am not your idiot godson who likes to get into trouble" I said and Papa laughed as he looked to me, "but you are my god daughter and well you need to remember that, you my dear god-daughter are always in more trouble than Harry cub" Papa said to me and I mumbled about unfair people, Papa laughed and looked to me, "so be nice to Pads" he said to me and I smirked as we walked out of the great hall.

Paddy and I walked up to the chambers that we had with each other and I smiled as I looked to Paddy, "still sore that I beat you in the battle earlier" I asked and he laughed, "no I am not upset about it princess, I was just not expecting you to hit me with that spell is all" he said to me and I laughed as I looked to him, "Paddy you were showing off" I said and smiled, "and well I have a name to live up to otherwise people would think that I don't have what it takes to take Tom Riddle on" I said to him and he smiled, "well I was glad it was you and not someone else otherwise I would have had to show them what happens when you try to take down a black" he said and I laughed as I looked to him, "oh yeah, what would you have done to me then" I said and he smirked as he grabbed my hand and looked to me, "well you know that I have some ideas" he said and I laughed as he grabbed my into his arms and fell on to the bed with me, "this" he said to me and I laughed as he peppered kisses all over me, "give yet" he asked and I laughed, "never" I said to him.

I couldn't help but laugh as he went to tickling me, "I give, sorry I beat you in a duel mighty master Paddy" I said giggling as he looked to me, "I love you Pandora and I can't wait to make you my wife one day" he said to me and I looked to him as I smiled, "me too Paddy, I think that I am already more black than potter" I said and he got up so he was looking at me and grinned, "me too princess" he said and smirked, "so then I have figured out what it is that you and your friends have been doing baby" he said to me and I smirked, "took you longer than I thought it would Paddy" I said to him and he smirked, "you getting old baby" I said and he laughed, "old my ass" he said and pulled me onto his lap and grinned, "Remy is aware as well so we are going to help you on this" Paddy said to me and I looked to him, "Paddy" I said and he smiled, "no we are helping, we haven't said anything to your mother and father yet as we don't think that your mother will be happy about it" he said to me and I smiled, "fine but this is being done my way" I said to him and he nodded, "okay" he said to me.

Paddy smiled and looked to me, "so is there anything you need" he asked me and I shook my head, "no it is done so there is nothing that mum and dad can do now" I said to him and smiled, "I can always say that you wasn't aware until you came across us" I said and Paddy smirked, "who else is changing with you" he asked and I smiled, "if I tell you, are you going to stop us or let us do it" I asked and he smiled, "of course I am not going to stop you because then I would be a hypocrite as your father, papa and I did it in this year as well" he said and I laughed as I nodded, "well the people taking the change with us is Ron, Hermione, Draco, Fred, George and of course Neville and Luna as they found out a few weeks ago what we were doing" I said to him and smiled, "and we said that we didn't mind waiting for there to mature like ours" I said and he smirked, "well I will be interested to see if you're a wolf in your animagus form as well as your inheritance" he said to me.

I looked to him and smiled, "so as were doing this later I am sure that I can let you know what it is" I said and noticed that he was looking to me and he looked really worried, "do you want to come and keep us safe" I purred making him laugh, "of course I can get Moony to come with me and i am sure that between the both of us we protect you when you're under finding out what you are" he said to me and I smiled, "thanks paddy, it means the world to me that you are going to come along for this, I was worried that you would tell me no" I said to him. Paddy smiled and looked to me, "thank you for telling me the truth Dora" he said and looked to me, "I would never have stopped you from doing this because I know that it is everything to you and your brother" he said which did make me smile at him, "I just want to have the edge when it comes to Albus and his problems" I said to him.

Paddy looked to me and sighed, "Dora can we talk about something that is worrying me" Paddy said and I nodded, "of course you can Paddy" I said and he sighed, "are you really wanting to speak to tom about this soul mate bond" Paddy asked making me look to him, "I wasn't aware you knew about that" I said to him and watched as he nodded, "yeah Moony and I found out you want to speak to the mad man" Paddy said to me and I sighed as I looked to him, "I think that Albus is lying about things and well I don't think that it was Tom that came that night" I said to him, "what" Paddy said and I nodded, "I don't think that it was Tom that killed mum and dad that night" I said telling him the things that I believed.

Paddy looked to me and sighed, "I wouldn't be able to give anything on that because I wasn't there that night Dora" Paddy said and I smiled, "I know you wasn't Paddy, it is just something that keeps on playing in my head and well I have questions that only he can answer" I explained to him. Paddy looked to me and smiled, "when you do this, are you going to do this alone" he asked me and I smiled, "of course i am not going to speak to the mad man alone, I am not suicidal Paddy" I said to him and Paddy laughed, "thank god, I was worried for the moment that you wanted to speak to him alone" he said to me and I smiled, "I just want to know why Albus is so hell-bent on killing my brother and I" I said to him.

Paddy looked to me and sighed, "well when you decide to come and do this, please tell me because you are not going anywhere near that man without me" Paddy said to me and I laughed, "I would never leave you here when I see him, I need my Paddy with me all the time" I explained to him, Paddy smiled and nodded, "thank you for tell me the truth" he said to me and I looked to him, "I would always tell you the truth and I would always be the one to come and find you when I need something" I explained to him and Paddy smiled, "I was wondering if you would tell me or not" he said to me and I smiled, "of course I would tell you Paddy, you know that I would never lie to you" I said and he pulled me into his arms and smiled, "I love you Dora" Paddy said and I leant down smiling as I kissed him. I smiled as he kissed me back and I looked down to him, "when do you have to be down there" he asked making me smile as I knew he wanted to spend some more time with me alone as he knew that he wasn't able to get it with all the teachers around all the time.

I looked to him and smiled, "well we said that we would do it this evening so we had more time as I was worried about the time it would take to be completed, so in about an hour" I said and he smiled, "well you will have Moony and I there with you as I believe your mother and father are going out tonight" he said making me grin. I looked to him and smiled, "I promise that I will only ask him questions" I said and smiled, "I promise that I will not make him kill me or Harry" I said and Paddy smiled, "come on them, I believe that we need to find Moony before we go" Paddy said and took my hand, "come on angel" he said to me and with that we walked out of the portrait where Paddy switched and wrapped his arm around my shoulders and pulled me closer to him, "so I believe that Moony should be in the library, he still likes to read like the little book worm he is" he said to me.

I laughed as I looked to him and nodded, "Alright then, you sure you still know the way to the library, being that you weren't the learning type" I said to him and Paddy snorted, "bite me" he said and I laughed, "not out here, you don't know what we would end up doing" I said and with that we walked towards the library speaking about different things that we wanted to do which made me laugh as most of them were muggle things he wanted to do.

I smiled as we walked into the library and the librarian looked to me and smiled, "Pandora, I don't normally see you in here a lot, let alone Mr Black" she said to us and smirked as she looked to Paddy, "I don't think that you have ever come into my library" she said to him and I giggled, "Mr Black doesn't like books" I said making Paddy snort, "have you seen Remus at all, he is normally the ones that did the learning for the three of us" Paddy asked and she smirked, "always was the same, in the back" she said and I grinned, "Papa was always in here was he" I asked and she looked confused, "Papa" she asked and I nodded, "I might be a Potter but I was adopted by Remus" I said and she smiled, "it is nice to see that Remus was able to have something he didn't think he would get" she said and I heard as Papa walked around the corner and smiled, "Dora" he said and I smiled, "hey Papa" I said as I walked over to him.

Papa smiled and looked to me, "what are you doing in here, I thought you would be like pads and wouldn't like the libarby, I mean twice in a day" he said to me and I laughed as I looked to him, "Paddy said that you would come with us this evening" I said and he smiled, "of course" he said and turned to the librarian, "thanks for letting me use the restricted area, it was a huge help" he said to her and I looked to him, "what were you doing there Papa" I asked and he smirked, "nothing to worry about little one" he said and pushed Paddy and I out of the library, "come on we are going before you ask more questions" he said to me and with that we walked out of the library and outside where I bumped into someone, "Ouch" a girl said to me and I looked up to see that it was Pansy, "Well what do we have here" Pansy said with a sick look on her face, "is it Remus that you're having an affair with" she snarled.

I looked to her and laughed, "really now you think because I am with my papa that I am sleeping with him" I said and she looked to me, "that's horrible, you call your lover papa" she said to me and I rolled my eyes as I looked to her, "why don't you bite me asshole" I said to her and she laughed, "did I get the wrong teacher to tell Albus about" she snarled and I growled, "why don't you fuck off Pug, no one wants you here" I snarled and she laughed as she looked to me, "sorry did I hit a nerve there" she said and smiled, "is the little tart is upset over not being able to choose being the traitor and the has been" Pansy said and I went for her but felt arms around me and noticed that it was Paddy, "piss off Parkinson, leave my girl alone" Paddy said to her and Pansy looked to me, "I was right, you are sleeping with a teacher" she said and Paddy growled, "Next time I will let my girl go for you" Paddy snarled.

I turned my attention to Paddy and smiled, "let's go before I end up killing the bitch" I snarled and she looked to me, "I was right" she screamed and Paddy laughed, "shame" he said and I watched as Papa pulled his wand out and pointed it at her, "Obviate" he said and I watched as she looked blank and looked to Papa, "how did I get here" she asked and Papa snarled, "you're going to Severus for what you have done to my cub" Papa snarled and turned to us, "go on and I will meet you there" he said to me and smiled, "I want to make sure that she is sorted with because I don't want her to be here" Papa said and I nodded, "okay but make sure that you come down to the black lake when you're finished" I said and he nodded.

Paddy threw me over his shoulder and I laughed as he walked down to the black lake with me and I growled as I could hear my brother laughing at me but I couldn't see him which meant that he was in front of me, "what happened this time" he asked and Paddy looked to him, "nothing I couldn't handle" Paddy said and I laughed, "Papa dealt with it idiot" I said and he looked to me, "do you want me to put you down" he asked. I grinned and moved so I was put down and looked around, "Paddy and Papa know what we are doing" I said and Harry laughed, "Moony asked me about it a couple of days ago, I couldn't lie to him so told him the truth" Harry said and I smiled, "Same Paddy asked me about it today and I told him" I said and Harry looked to me, "what about mum and dad because I haven't seen them" Harry said to me and I smirked, "Mum and dad have gone out for a date so we are free for the night" I said and he smirked, "sounds like fun" he said and I nodded.

I laughed as I grabbed the potions from the bag I had and looked around to make sure that everyone was here and smiled, "so for this to work we need it to be a full moon and for it to be thundering" I explained and Draco looked to me, "so we are down here for nothing" he said and I looked to my brother, "what did you see in him, he really is an idiot when he wants to be" I said and laughed as Ron walked over to cuddled into him, "sorry what was that bestie" Draco said and I rolled my eyes as I turned to the sky and raised my hands as I closed my eyes knowing that Harry was doing the same. I smirked as people gasped and I slammed my hands to the floor and grinned as it began to thunder and lightning all over, "wow" Paddy said and I grinned, "well do remember that that Harry and I are elementals and with fire and ice we are able to make the air around us humid and make lighting" I explained to him and Paddy smiled, "like I said, wow" he said and walked over to me, "full of surprises aren't you princess" he said to me and I smiled as I nodded.

I grabbed the potions and passed them to the others and smiled, "you have an hour otherwise we have to do it again" I said and Paddy grinned, "were where you when I needed this" he said to me and I grinned as I tipped the potion down and felt as Paddy caught me as I didn't know that the potion would make me black out.

Pandora's Dream;

I looked around and noticed that I was in a forest and this was covered in fog which made me look around, "what the hell" I said to myself and noticed that I could see something in the distance, deciding that I would see if I could find out what it was I walked towards the trees to see that there was a large white wolf and I smirked as I had found out that I was indeed a wolf in animagus form as well as my inheritance, I walked over to the wolf and placed my hand on her head and felt as the magic in me accepted the animagus and I felt as my body began to shift into the wolf.

Harry's Dream;

I noticed that I was in a jungle and that I was standing in something that I didn't like the look of and moaned, "Great, why couldn't I be something that wasn't more Slytherin" I moaned and noticed that something was growling behind me. I turned around and squeaked as there stood a large black bear that was walking towards me growling. I knew that this was my animagus form but I couldn't help the fear to come from me as I was worried that this bear would eat me, I took a deep breath and walked towards the bear and placed my hand on the snout of the bear and smiled as he rubbed his head into me and I felt as my magic accepted the bear and I began to change and shift into the bear that would become my animagus.

Draco's Dream;

I woke to see that I was in a dream as I knew that me being in a jungle wasn't real for me and I knew that this was something that I would have to take control of if I wished to take control of the animal I was to become, I looked around and noticed that there was a white tiger laid on the floor and looked to me with mirth in its eyes. I sighed and walked towards this tiger and smiled, "of course I would be something with intelligent" I said and placed my hand on his head and smiled as my magic accepted and I began to change into this tiger.

Ron's Dream;

I woke to being on the floor and noticed that I was surrounded in trees and frowned, "where the hell am I" I said to myself and got up wiping my hands on my trousers and moaned, "great, the potion didn't work, when I get my hands on Pandora" I growled and froze when I heard something behind me, I turned around and noticed that there was a large lion there and it was growling at me as it began to roar at me, I knew that I needed to find a way out of here but there was no way out. "I am your animagus form, you need to accept me" a voice said and I looked around, "where the hell are you" I shouted into the air and turned back to lion. I took a step forward and noticed that the lion was just looking at me, I held my hand out to the lion and squeaked as it came forward towards me and pushed its head into my hands and I felt as my magic took to the lion and my body began to change.

Hermione's Dream;

I looked around and smiled as I knew that this was the potion at work, I noticed that I was in a forest and smirked, "well I wonder what you're going to be" I said to myself and walked around looking for the creature that I would be able to turn into, I looked confused as I couldn't find anything and smirked, "well it looks like the creature I am is able to hide in plain sight" I said to myself and smiled as I large black panther walked out and looked to me, I smiled as I held my hand out to the animal and grinned as I felt the magic in me confirm and turn me into the form that I would need.

Fred and George's Dream;

We woke to see that we both were in the same dream and smirked as we would both be around the same thing as we were both having the same dream with each other, we looked around and noticed that there were two identical large snakes that we had to admit looked cool, we walked forward and bent down to pick the snakes up when we felt our magic connect and we began to change into the snakes that we saw.

Neville's Dream;

I woke to see that I was in the air and frowned as I didn't know what was happening, I looked up and noticed that there was a large eagle there and I frowned, "but I don't like to fly" I said and the eagle bent its head down and connected with me, I smiled as it felt right and my magic began to help the change take place within me.

Luna's Dream;

I looked around and noticed that i was in the forest and smiled as there was a little koala in front of me and smirked as I knew that this was my animagus form, I grabbed a hold of the animal and smiled as I was indeed beginning to change into my animal form.
