Chapter 26

The living room grandfather clock was chiming nine as Krista and Kaiba descended the stairs leading into the living room. Kaiba had his arm around Krista's waist. They were both silent as they were preparing for London. They both knew that they only had a couple of hours until their meetings.

Krista was completely confident that her upcoming task would be a success. "I can't believe in just a few hours, I will be lobbing for my first magical law." She said while walking towards the wall safe to get her briefcase.

Kaiba smirked. "I know. The magical legislation committees will start to respect the name Krista Kaiba."

"Tell me why we just don't have you use the Rod to change their minds on this law?" Krista asked.

Kaiba snickered. "Because where is the challenge in getting what I want, if I always resort to mind control?" Kaiba stated in his most arrogant tone.

Krista gave Seto a quick kiss before saying. "We have had the most unusual day. We did a lot of our work for KC last night. Then we got to pull a quickie in the kitchen before I made omelets for everyone. Took a nap and when we woke up spent the rest of the evening in bed doing more love making and then more work."

Kaiba pulled Krista into an embrace so that her breasts were touching his chest. He looked deep into his wife's eyes. He spent several moments admiring her before saying. "And I wouldn't have it any other way. What better way to stay home from the office then to spend it in bed."

Krista laughed as she slipped her hand into Seto's. She started to lead him towards the sofa. "Other than the fight that broke out it has been a rather quiet day."

"I still can't believe you told everyone about Zankoo raping you." Seto stated.

Krista let out a big sigh. "I didn't really want them to know, but I felt like I had no choice. That fight wasn't going to end unless I made everyone see reason. It is a fact that people start to be more understanding about such things when they have some personal references. I just hope everyone respects my wishes and doesn't try to ask me for details."

"If anyone tries to drill you for details, I'll send them straight to the Shadow Realm." Kaiba said.

Krista looked into Seto's cobalt eyes. She could tell he wasn't kidding. "You would wouldn't you?" She said.

"Damn straight." Seto stated.

"Then we'll hope none pisses you off by asking me for details. On another note, I think my apprentices were surprised I gave them tonight off from classes." Krista said.

The CEO smirked. "As I recall I told you if you wanted to have classes today, I would make you take a Strengthening Potion."

"And I refuse to take one. So I called off class." Krista said.

"Your pride is just going to be the death of me isn't it." Kaiba teased.

"I already told you my reason for not wanting a potion isn't pride." Krista snapped.

"If it isn't pride then what is it? You can tell me anything." Seto said.

"I have a hypothesis, but your brilliant mind won't accept it. I would need undisputable scientific proof. And right now all I have is a physics equation. And for you that won't be enough. You would spend the next six months trying to see if I made an elemental error!" Krista hollered.

Seto rolled his eyes. He wasn't sure what Krista was hiding. "Then give me a hint!" Kaiba demanded.

Krista could feel her temper rising. "I want to save myself from pain." She spat.

"That makes no sense!" Kaiba yelled as his temper was reaching its breaking point. "I still say it is just your stubborn pride!"

"And your stubborn pride blinds you from just trusting me!" Krista snapped. "However you are free to believe what you want."

"I will figure out the issue. But for now I don't have time to deal with this." The CEO said.

Krista rolled her eyes as she spoke. "You are the one who brought it up. So don't take your frustration out on me." Kaiba was about to retaliate when the sound laughter broke up the newlyweds argument.

Krista and Kaiba turned their heads to see Draco and Ginny coming into the living room. Both were in swimwear. Apparently, they had just gotten out of the pool. "You two are finally out of your room." Ginny teased.

"We are getting ready to head to London." Kaiba explained. He was starting to feel foolish for starting an argument with Krista. He grabbed her hand intertwining his fingers with hers. He was making an effort to communicate an apology.

Krista liked Seto's touch. She turned her head to face her husband. She then gave Seto a smile, and a wink. So that he would know, she understood.

"Before you go we would like to cast the Betrothal Bond Spell." Draco stated.

Krista tuned to face Draco and Ginny. "Not a problem it shouldn't take too long to cast." She said.

"When are you heading to London?" Kaiba asked.

"About the same time as you." Draco replied. "I wanted to head out later in the afternoon at least according to London time that is. I want Ginevra to accompany me."

"Want to show her off huh." Kaiba teased.

"More like safety in numbers. She is going to be escorted by me to her brothers' shop. I need her to pick up some stuff for me." Draco explained.

"I never thought of you as a joke shop person." Krista teased.

"All part of my plan." Draco replied. He raised his wand and summoned the green box his mom had given him. He laid the box on the coffee table and opened it. Inside the box was a smaller velvet green box. There was also a silver and green medallion inside the box.

Draco pulled the medallion out of the box. He placed it on the coffee table. The medallion was a shield with three spear points on the top of the shield and three on the bottom. In the center of the shield was the letter M encrusted with emeralds. On the top center spear there were two snakes intertwined around the spear. In addition, there were two dragons on either side of the shield.

Krista was looking at the medallion as she spoke. "That is the Malfoy family crest isn't it?" She said.

Draco smirked. "Yes it is."

"I have to admit that one is prettier than brooch with the Black family crest on it. I like it because the emeralds really make the crest sparkle." Krista commented.

"What is in the little box?" Ginny asked.

"You'll see that after we cast the spell. It is for you." Draco explained. "Both of these items have been in the Malfoy family for centuries. And used each time a Betrothal Bond Spell is cast. Since I'm the only Malfoy male this generation, they became mine when I was born. The last time in my family a Betrothal Bond was cast was between my great great grandparents."

"The fact that you know so much about your family tree is a bit scary." Ginny stated.

"All pureblood aristocrats have to know their family history. It is just part of the upbringing. That's how I knew Krista would know how closely you and I are related. I figured her father would have given her some information. Since the Black side of my parentage had so much discord in my mum's generation. I didn't learn as much as my Malfoy side. I was glad Krista was able to fill me in." Draco explained.

"Discord?" Ginny asked.

Draco laughed. "Ginevra, My Aunt Andromeda ran off and married a muggle born. This caused her to get disowned by the Black family. And if my aunt's acts didn't cause a problem the only two males left to carry on the Black name sure did. Sirius turned his back on Black traditions and was disowned by his folks. Sirius' brother Regulus died, shortly after becoming a Death Eater. Rumor has it he got cold feet carrying out the Dark Lords plans. The Dark Lord didn't take to kindly to Regulus' change of heart and had him killed. So, needless to say, my father didn't feel it was too necessary for me to learn too much about the Black family tree since there were no males to carry on the name of Black."

"My family didn't bother with teaching me anything about our family, probably because there are so many of us. Weasley's are known for having large families. I can only think of a couple of my aunts and uncles who didn't have children, and that is because they never married." Ginny said.

"Weasley's also aren't aristocrats in our society since they aren't exactly wealthy." Draco added.

"My Great Aunt Muriel is well off, but she is the only one. Come to think of it. She isn't even a Weasley. She is my mum's aunt not my dad's. She doesn't come over often since she complains about our family size. She constantly says Weasleys breed like rabbits." Ginny explained.

Draco started to snicker. "Well you guys kind of do." He teased.

Ginny playfully hit Draco's arm. "Shut up." Ginny replied.

"Ginevra, in order to cast this spell I need you to place your left hand on the dragon on the left." Draco instructed.

Ginny followed Draco's directions and placed her hand on the dragon. "Now you have to place your left hand on the dragon on the right." She said.

Draco was pleasantly surprised by Ginny's comment. "You did pay attention when you read about this spell didn't you." He said.

Ginny snickered. "I may have been raised with a father who preferred to play with muggle stuff, but I have always been fascinated with everything magical. When I was little I couldn't wait until I went to Hogwarts."

Draco placed his left hand on the dragon. "Okay Krista you need to pull out your wand."

Krista was twirling her wand between her fingers. "Well ahead of you, cousin. If my memory serves I have to press my wand in direct center of the family crest and say an incantation."

"You do know the incantation right?" Draco asked with a glare.

Krista rolled her eye. "Of course it is the full name of the male followed name full name of the female with the phase sponsaliavinculo sandwiched between the names. Assuming my memory is correct." She sneered.

Draco shook his head. Sometimes Krista's ego was too much. "You know your memory is accurate." He stated. "Now you will have to say the incantation twice since you are acting as witness for both of us. The second time with Ginevra's name preceding mine."

"I never would have thought of that." Krista replied sarcastically.

"Just get on with it." Draco demanded.

"Of course." Krista said. She walked over to the coffee table. Suddenly she realized she needed something. "I have never asked either of you your full names. What are they?"

Ginny giggled. "Ginevra Molly Weasley."

Draco let out a huge sigh. He hated his middle name. "My full name is Draco Lucius Malfoy."

Krista could hear a tone of disgust when Draco said his middle name. She however chose to ignore it. After all a child, having a namesake of a family member isn't that uncommon. Krista placed the tip of her wand in the direct center of the Malfoy family crest. "Draco Lucius Malfoy sponsaliavinculo Ginevra Molly Weasley." A ribbon of green light erupted from the end of Krista's wand. The green ribbon circled around Draco's left wrist then around Ginny's in the shape of a figure eight. "Ginevra Molly Weasley sponsaliavinculo Draco Lucius Malfoy." Once again a ribbon of light erupted from Krista's wand. This time it was ruby red. The ribbon circled around Ginny's wrist and the Draco's creating a second figure eight.

The two colored figure eights glowed brightly for several minutes. Once the colored bands disappeared, Krista put her wand away. "Now you two are magically bonded together."

Draco gave Krista a hug. "Thanks for helping us."

"That is what family is for." Krista said.

"Well we better get heading to the Ministry. Ra only knows how long it will take us to check in." Kaiba said. He wrapped his arm around Krista. He then created a Shadow Portal and the two stepped through it leaving for London.

Draco picked up the little green box and opened it. Ginny looked inside the box and was shocked. Inside was the most beautiful ring she had ever seen. It was silver with a three carat diamond. Around the diamond were seven emeralds. "This ring has a magical charm on it. It is charmed to fit and adjust to the finger size of the female who is bonded to the Malfoy heir. As I said earlier the last to wear it was my Great Great Grandmother. And now it is yours." Draco explained.

"It is beautiful." Ginny said.

"Would you like me to put it on you?" Draco asked. "I mean I really didn't do a traditional proposal."

"I would like that very much." Ginny said.

Draco removed the ring from the box. He then lifted Ginny's left hand. "Thanks for loving me enough to be the future Lady Malfoy." Draco said as he slipped the ring on Ginny's finger.

Ginny watched in awe as the ring shrunk to fit perfectly on her petite finger. She lifted her hand to admire her ring. She then ran up to Draco and sealed his lips with a passionate kiss. After several moments, she broke the kiss. "I love you so much. And I'll do my best to bring honor to your family."

"Lord knows the Malfoy family could use that." Draco teased.

Ginny pulled out her wand and summoned two robes. She handed Draco his. "I say we should get ready to head to London." She said.

Ginny and Draco put on their robes over their swimwear. Draco then grabbed Ginny's waist escorting her to the fireplace. He grabbed a handful of Floo Powder. He then led Ginny into the fireplace. He pulled Ginny in close before he threw the powder and said. "The Leaky Cauldron." Emerald flames engulfed the two sending them through the Floo Network.

Moments later the two lovers exited the fireplace inside the pup. Ginny wasn't sure if she wanted people asking her questions about her ring or not. She deiced she would just put her left hand in her pocket of her robe for the time being.

Draco saw Ginny slip her left hand into her pocket and snickered. "Not scared are you?"

"No, just don't feel like answering to anyone. I know that if Fred and George found out what we just did that they would flip out." Ginny stated.

"Can't hide the truth forever." Draco said.

"No I can't but I'll tell my family when I'm ready. They would never understand." Ginny replied.

"I was teasing you." Draco said.

"I know that." Ginny said.

The two walked in silence for a couple of minutes. Soon they found themselves facing the wall that led into Diagon Alley. Draco pulled out his wand. He tapped a brick revealing Diagon Alley.

Draco was lost in his thoughts. He had several questions that he still didn't know how to answer. Ginny noticed that Draco seem apprehensive and asked. "Is something bothering you? You aren't having second thoughts about the spell are you?"

"No it isn't that." Draco replied. "I'm just trying to figure out what to do about Aunt Bella."

"What do you mean?" Ginny asked.

"Well as it turns out there is an escape clause for her judgment. Krista put it in so that my mum wouldn't have to suffer seeing her sister tortured for a year. But if I tell the Dark Lord about it, he will see Krista as weak. This would put my cousin in danger. Right now she is safe because the Dark Lord thinks she likes to torture people." Draco explained.

"I wouldn't tell him." Ginny said.

"The problem is I don't like seeing my mum suffer." Draco confessed.

"Can you just tell your mum?" Ginny asked.

"Even if I did, I don't know if it would do any good. The escape clause is casting a Killing Curse on Aunt Bella ending her life." Draco replied.

"Can someone else cast a Killing Curse on Bellatrix?" Ginny asked.

"Yes but if it is anyone but my mum cast the Killing Curse on Aunt Bella, they die when Aunt Bella dies." Draco replied.

"I see the quandary." Ginny stated.

Draco took a deep breath before continuing. "I could just let a Death Eater do it, but something tells me that won't go over too well."

"No Voldemort would think you purposely with held information since he knows that Krista trusts you." Ginny said.

"It would blow my cover and I would be killed by the Dark Lord." Draco said.

"And if that happens I die too." Ginny added.

"Yes you would. We do have quite the dilemma don't we." Draco stated.

"What if the next time you see your mum, you give her a moment of pure clarity?" Ginny asked.

Realizing was Ginny was hinting at Draco said. "Ginevra, that just might work. I was beginning to think that the only way to keep everyone safe and end mum's suffering would be casting Imperius Curse on my mum. I like your idea much better."

Ginny and Draco continued to stroll down the streets of Diagon Alley. Soon they arrived at Weasley Wizard Wheezes. As the approached the shop they saw a sign painted on the window.

Ginny's eyes popped out of her head as she read the sign aloud. "Why are you worrying about You Know Who? You should be worrying about U-No-Poo! The constipation sensation that's gripping the nation!"

"Your brothers have guts. They will be lucky not to be murdered in their sleep!" Draco exclaimed.

"They are Gryffindors, bravery kind of goes with the territory." Ginny stated.

"And I thought we had moved passed the whole house thing." Draco teased.

"Like Krista told everyone healthy competition is good." Ginny said.

"But the prejudice and segregation needs to be dissolved." Draco added.

"I take it that is her next social movement in the school." Ginny commented.

"She told me it was either that or a homosexual revolution for anyone same sex orientated at the school. She feels they need to feel free to express their sexuality and not be ashamed of the way they were born." Draco said.

"Knowing the Royal Sorceress she'll do both." Ginny said.

Draco snickered. "That she would."

Draco peered into the window and noticed Fred and George were both inside. "Your brothers are in their store. Go in there and pick me up the items we discussed. Also buy yourself something while you are at it. I'll be back in about an hour. I have to hit Knockturn Alley and I don't want you to accompany me there. I also need to stop by Flourish and Blotts to pick up Krista and Kaiba's books."

"Then I'll see you in an hour." Ginny gave Draco a kiss goodbye before heading into the joke shop. She was trying to figure out a way to get everything without having to remove her left hand form her pocket. She was contemplating just using both arms to carry everything, when she noticed a pile of shopping baskets.

She picked up a basket and started to fill it with all the stuff Draco needed. She was just finishing grabbing some Puribian Darkness Powder when Fred and George came up to her.

"Ginny, why are you here by yourself?" George asked.

"I'm not. Draco escorted me but he needed to hit the book store so he'll be back later." Ginny stated.

"You two are actually going around Diagon Alley in broad daylight now?" Fred asked.

"I thought you two were worried about getting caught together and being kicked off the house teams." George added.

"We were both made captain for the upcoming school year. We aren't about to kick ourselves off the team. So we don't really care who sees us together. But we aren't going to totally flaunt it. There are still too many people who wouldn't understand. The last thing I need is someone tipping off mum. She would end up sending me a Howler." Ginny replied.

"And you didn't think to send us an owl." Fred asked.

"I've been busy." Ginny replied.

"Ginny, you should send an owl to mum. She is worried about you." George suggested.

"I borrowed Hedwig from Harry last week. Mum is just upset that she can't control my every action anymore. Dad gave me permission to spend the summer in Japan and she didn't like that." Ginny said.

"Ginny, when are you going to tell mum and dad about you and Malfoy?" Fred asked.

"When I feel like they can handle it." Ginny snapped. Her older brothers were starting to annoy her.

"We just don't want to see you get hurt." George said.

"I know you don't trust Draco. But in all fairness, you don't really know him. Draco would never hurt me. Now how much for all this stuff?" She asked.

"Just follow us to the checkout counter little sis." Fred said.

Ginny was slightly singing the shopping basket as she walked. "I can't believe you guys had muggle shopping baskets in here." Ginny said.

"It was dad's idea." George said.

"I must say it was one of his better ideas for our shop." Fred added.

"His muggle magic trick items are not a good seller." George commented.

"Only nutters like dad seem to want them." Fred replied.

While Ginny was following the twins, she noticed a cage filled with fluffy animals. "Oh those are so cute." Ginny said.

"Pygmy Puffs." Fred said.

"Been a real big seller particularly among the witches." George added.

"We can't breed them fast enough." Fred explained.

"I think I'll take one of them too." Ginny said. "I want the purple one."

"The whole lot won't come cheap." George said.

"I think you forgot who I am seeing." Ginny stated.

"Oh you mean Malfoy is paying!" Fred exclaimed

"In that case we get to charge the, I've been a punk as long as I've known you, tax." George added.

"You will do no such thing!" Ginny yelled in a voice that reminded the twins of Mrs. Weasley.

"Just joking sis." George said.

"You two always are." Ginny responded.

Fred and George rang up all the items Ginny had. They put them in a bag. Ginny decided she wanted to show off her Pygmy Puff and put him on her shoulder. She was just leaving the shop with her purchases when Draco walked up.

Draco took a few moments staring at Ginny's shoulder. "You bought a pet."

"I'm going to name him Arnold." Ginny replied.

"He is cute. You do know that Kaiba is going to have a fit if you let him loose. He really can't stand all the pets in his Manor." Draco explained.

"There aren't that many are there?" Ginny asked.

"Two cats, three owls, a cobra, and now a Pygmy Puff." Draco stated.

"The owls aren't there too much. You send Orion out once a week and I've been alternating between Hedwig and Athena." Ginny replied.

Draco pulled his cell out of the pocket of his robe. "I think I'll send a pic of Arnold to Kaiba." Draco quickly snapped a picture of Ginny and Arnold and sent it to Kaiba.

Draco grabbed Ginny's hand. The two were strolling down the street when Draco's phone beeped. He quickly checked the message. "Kaiba says why the hell does Ginny have a Tribble on her shoulder? She had better not bring it to my manor! I don't want my manor overrun by Tribbles!"

"Is a Tribble another one of the creatures Luna thinks exists?" Ginny asked.

"I doubt it, but I'll ask Kaiba. I'll also let Kaiba know that Arnold is a Pygmy Puff, not a Tribble." Draco quickly sent a text to Kaiba. When he got a response beep, he read the message. "Kaiba says he doesn't have the time to explain what a Tribble is and says to Google it. He says that the Pygmy Puff better not be like a Tribble or there will be hell to pay."

Ginny's curiously was getting to her. She decided she wanted to know what a Tribble was. She whipped out her cell phone. When she found an article describing Tribbles she said. "It appears that a Tribble is a fictional asexual animal. And are seen in some muggle TV show called Start Trek. Tell Kaiba that Pygmy Puffs don't self breed so his manor won't be overrun by them."

"I would like to grab a bite to eat before we head back to Kaiba Manor. I'm sick of Japanese food and would like some English cuisine. Care to join me for dinner?" Draco asked.

"Would love to." Ginny replied.

Draco escorted Ginny into the Leaky Cauldron. He was looking around for an isolated table when something caught the corner of his eye. "Ginevra, let's sit over here." Draco said as he led Ginny to a table near the back. The table Draco led Ginny too had a single occupant at it. "Hello mum." Draco said.

The sound of her son's voice startled Narcissa. "Draco, I wasn't expecting you."

"We had some shopping to do today. Mind if we join you?" Draco asked.

"Not at all." Narcissa responded.

"Before we have a seat, I think you deserve a formal introduction." Draco gestured to mom. "Ginevra Weasley, I like you to meet my mother, Narcissa Malfoy." Draco then pointed to Narcissa "Mum this is Ginevra."

Narcissa noticed that Ginny's left hand was still in her pocket. She had her suspicions and decided to act on them. Narcissa held out her left hand to Ginny. Ginny out of habit pulled out her left hand from her pocket and shook Narcissa's hand. "A pleasure to meet you, Ginevra." Narcissa said.

"Likewise Mrs. Malfoy." Ginny replied.

"Oh dreary call me Narcissa. After all, you are betrothed to my son. Addressing me as Mrs. Malfoy is a bit formal." Narcissa stated.

"How did you know?" Ginny asked,

Narcissa smiled. "You are wearing the ring that once belonged to Draco's Great Great Grandmother. Which means the two of you cast the Betrothal Bond Spell."

Ginny's started to feel slightly embarrassed. "Oh yeah, we did."

"Well you two have a seat and we'll have some dinner." Cissa said.

Draco and Ginny joined Narcissa at the table. While they were eating conversion remained somewhat casual. Draco didn't want to upset his mom by mentioning Aunt Bella. He was surprised when his mom mentioned that she understood why Krista had cast a spell.

This came as a shock to Draco. He figured the reason his mom understood was because Krista was faced with a kill or be killed situation. Draco decided not to give his mom the whole story since it would cause more harm than good.

About halfway into dinner Ginny's phone vibrated. She excused herself in order to answer the call. Her call was from Krista. Krista wanted to inform her that she had been successful in her negations. Ginny got a good laugh when Krista told her the new law would allow Seto to finally raise a dragon. She had the law changed so that Kaiba could raise a dragon as part of the requirements for Care of Magical Creatures this year.

Krista's argument was that since muggles can't see the castle no one would see the dragons. Therefore, there was no breach in the Statue of Secrecy, which was the whole reason for dragons being illegal pets to begin with. So now the law pertaining to dragons states that a dragon may be kept in an area with muggle repellent charms. Any witches and wizards wishing to keep them as pets now have to purchase a Dragon Keepers License.

Ginny wasn't too surprised when Krista told her how Hagrid was extremely happy to hear about the new law. And an owl was on now its way to Charlie requesting a couple of dragon eggs. Ginny couldn't help but wonder what chaos dragons being raised on school grounds next year would cause.

Ginny had to control her laughter when she was told how Krista blackmailed Dumbledore. Krista threatened to expose the loophole on the Trace if the old fool didn't cooperate with her. Dumbledore ended up having sign off saying it was okay for Krista and Kaiba to do year six and seven together. But he also had to agree not to interfere with Kaiba's class project.

Right before she hung up Ginny mentioned she was a bit concerned for Kaiba's safety since she knew he had been told that he couldn't have a dragon as a pet. Ginny's fears were put to rest quickly.

Krista explained how once again loopholes were a wonderful thing. Kaiba's dragon would be seen as a class project and not a pet. Krista also said when she wrote the no dragons condition into the contract. She wrote it clearly stating no dragon because they were illegal. Since dragons were no longer illegal, Kaiba was totally safe from falling to the Penalty Game sealed into the contract.

Ginny was snicker at the devious nature of her friends as she took a seat. "What was all that about?" Draco whispered.

"I'll inform you after we get back to Kaiba Manor. You just might want to change your class schedule when I tell you what Krista just told me." She whispered back.

Narcissa snickered. "You two are so cute. Ginevra, I hope you don't think me incentive, but would you allow me to help plan and pay for yours and Draco's wedding?"

"It won't be for two years. I don't turn seventeen until the summer after next." Ginny said.

"I understand, but you know I have more resources than your family." Narcissa explained.

Ginny knew what she needed to say since Draco had filled in Ginny on what Narcissa knew to be true. "We haven't even told my family yet, and I doubt we will. So I have no problem accepting your help."

"You don't think your parents will approve do you." Narcissa said.

"For several reason but one is they are still upset at your late husband for giving me a certain diary. They would think that Draco was responsible as well as his father." Ginny said.

"I'm glad you don't hold Draco responsible for his father's actions." Narcissa said.

"That is one of the many things my family and I don't agree on." Ginny said.

"No I guess not since you support pureblood views instead of their blood traitor views." Narcissa stated.

"Naturally." Ginny responded.

Draco smirked at how well Ginny was playing her role. "Mum, it has been a pleasure to see to but Ginevra and I need to be heading back to Japan. With the eight hour time difference I'm starting to feel tired."

"Of course, I totally understand." Narcissa stood up and gave Draco a hug. "I should be heading home too. I'm sure Bella will need more Healing Charms when I arrive."

At the mention of her sister, Draco saw tears forming in Narcissa's eyes. He felt bad for his mom and knew what needed to happen. He held his hand out to Ginny. "Shall we." Draco asked.

Ginny smiled and took Draco's hand in hers. "Of course, Draco." Ginny turned to face Narcissa. "It was a pleasure meeting you. I look forward to seeing you again."

Draco started to escort Ginny towards the fireplace when he pulled out his wand. He pointed his wand at his mother. "Momentoclaritatis." He muttered.

Draco watched as the Epiphany Charm hit his mom. Draco could see his mom's tears vanish as her mind suddenly became clear. Judging from her body language Draco knew the charm was successful. He threw a handful of Floo Powder into the fireplace knowing the next time he heard from his mom things would be different. He knew he had done the right thing to help her heal even if it would be initially painful.

Narcissa was attempting to wipe her tears when she felt Draco's spell hit her. Suddenly she had a revelation. She knew what she needed to do. She quickly recomposed her figure. She glanced back to see the emerald flames taking Ginny and Draco back to Domino City. She gave them a quick wave before disapparating out of the pub.

Narcissa soon found herself on the outside of the magical protections surrounding the Malfoy Manor. She strolled with her head held high. She approached the gate and quickly waved her wand to gain access to the ground.

She entered the manor glad to find that no one was around. She wasn't sure what repercussions her actions would have. But she would deal with them when the time came. She walked down the halls until she came to the door to Bellatrix's room.

She opened the door to find Bellatrix screaming in agony. She quickly cast a Silencing Charm on her sister. She then cast several Healing Charms on Bella's body. She walked up to her sisters body. Taking a glance at it she said. "Forgive me sister, but I know you will never recover. I can't bear to see you in anymore pain. So I'm going to end it."

Narcissa pointed her wand at Bellatrix, and said. "Arvada Kadrva." Narcissa watched as the blinding green light hit her sister ending Bellatrix's life. Narcissa fell to the ground and started crying. Even though she knew she had done the merciful thing it still hurt to say goodbye to her sister.

Narcissa cried for what seemed like an eternity. When Narcissa felt she could manage she levitated Bellatrix's lifeless body to the backyard. She used her wand to magically dig a grave for her sister. She then levitated Bella's body into the grave. Narcissa quickly used her wand to cover the body. She then headed back to her home. She had done what was necessary. Now she needed to mourn the death of her sister.
