Before everyone else saw the memory Draco left Hogwarts to go and tell his mother about it. He went alone. Narcissa took the news badly. It took her a whole week to even start talking to anyone aside from Draco after that. Both of them spent that week together and Draco would go out only when she was asleep. Aside from the fact that Lucius was an evil, cruel man he was the love of her life and the father to the only person that truly mattered in her life. When she started to get better, to eat, and to talk to Andromeda, Draco went back to Hogwarts. Since he found out, the only person from there he talked to was Hermione and that can't even be called a proper conversation. He would think a lot about it, unable to forget the smell of her hair next to his face.

The first one to meet when he came back was Davina. She was in the Great Hall doing some kind of spell. It seemed like she didn't really know what she was doing. He stepped closer just to jump back when a blast of fire exploded between them. Her spell got terribly wrong knocking her against the wall under the strength of the blast. She tried to lift up, but pain in the side of her abdomen was excruciating. Draco managed to get up and walked pass the fire that caught one of the tables. When he got to her she was coughing out blood.

"What the hell did you do?" He hissed as she lost her conscience. He picked her up and took her outside, since the room was already filling with smog.

"Aquamenti!" He screamed towards the big room now completely on fire. The water splashed over it making even bigger smog.

"Caroline!" Another scream. Blond vampire appeared in flash of the light. "Heal her. She got hit by her own spell." Caroline didn't ask anything. She bit her wrist and fed Davina her blood. Moments after, almost everyone else was there. And she opened her eyes to see Ron next her with a worried look. Right on the other side stood Draco and next to him Caroline. She got up stumbling but Ron kept her standing.

"Try not to move to fast. I did heal you, but you had some really bad injuries. Few broken ribs and your lungs collapsed, after being impaled by your broken ribs." Caroline explained with a smile.

"Thank you. Both of you." She walked over to them. Draco just nodded brushing of the dried blood under his nose with his already dirty sleeve. When she turned to leave Ron nodded in thanks and helped her out. At the door she turned around.

"Klaus, your mother's book. It burned down in the fire." She looked at him with sorry eyes, but he smiled widely.

"It didn't burn down, little witch. The book protects itself it can only be destroyed by a Mikaelson. Which spell did you practice?"

"The mind breaching spell. But it didn't work. I tried to penetrate Aurora's mind."

"You can't do it. It's really complicated and you need her to be in a same room without a boundary spell around her. You were alone that's why it backfired." Kol explained. She nodded and they left.

"Be a little less obvious about missing being a bloody witch." Katherine sneered.

"Got something against it Katerina?" Kol cruised behind her.

"I actually couldn't care any less." She turned around. The crowd was already on their way and they were left alone.

"Tell me something, Katerina. Who do you miss more? Elijah or maybe... Nadia?"

Her eyes flew wide open and she gazed at him with rage. Her lips curled up and the next thing she knew was that she was sending him flying into the wall. It left a crack on it as he got up and ran towards her. Griping her hair he smashed her against the floor and blood started rushing out her cut lips. She smirked as her fist met his nose. Kol stumbled behind and she took a chance to punch him few more times before he was firmly on his feet again. He gasped in rage as he took a firm grip around her neck lifting her up from the ground. He grinned widely before sending her flying over the room right on the wooden spike on the wall.

"Immobulus." Harry held his wand strongly in his hand pointing it to Katherine making her freeze mere second before she reached the spike. His eyes glowed with rage as he turned to Kol who was just smirking at him. Katherine's body just fell on the floor and Harry released her from the spell. She was on her feet really fast.

"What in Merlin's name were you two doing? You could have killed her!" Harry yelled. The next moment Klaus ran from behind him with a furious face.

"I thought we had a deal, brother."

"She punched me first." Kol mocked.

"You almost killed her." Harry yelled again. "If I didn't stop it she would be hanging of the wall right now."

"As much as you despise Katerina, no one here is allowed to kill her. And if I hear something like this again I swear-"

"What Nik? You swear to what? You'll send me back to Elijah?" Kol hissed.

"I said what I had to say. Don't make me use other methods, brother." Klaus then turned to Katherine. "I believe it's time for us to talk, Katerina."

Kol ran down to the dungeons leaving them. Klaus entered the Great Hall waiting for Katherine to follow. She sighed and went on.

"Thank you." She said as she passed by Harry. He nodded and left to check on Davina. Katherine found Klaus taking out the book out of the ashes. His mother's spell book. She sat on the remains of the table and brushed of the blood from her chin. Her wounds were healing already. Klaus took a deep breath and turned around with a stern face.

"Who is Nadia? I've heard the name twice now and I want to hear more about your daughter."

After a week of barely getting out of bed Lydia was feeling better. Stiles spent almost all the free time with her. Blaise, who was best with potions, spent most of the time in the kitchen making healing potions for her. Derek's old burnt house was renewed. It still looked like a dark shelter for a dying wolf pack as Stiles once called it. But the inside looked completely different. White walls, stylish furniture, beautiful pictures on the walls. It all looked just not Derek at all. Even before they left Hogwarts Stiles arranged that they will stay with him and he will help them find Deucalion. Scott and the rest of his friends were already off to college and neither he nor Lydia felt like usurping them.

This was the first morning Lydia had breakfast with everyone else. She sat next to Stiles and on her other side was Luna. Across sat Ginny and Blaise. Derek was still sleeping. Lydia stretched out her hand to get some honey when she twitched in pain caused by improper movement.

"You didn't spend seven days in bed just so you can open your wound again." Stiles said as he passed her the honey. She smiled giving him a kiss on the cheek and he grinned.

"He is right Lydia. Ease up on the harsh movements or it is going to hurt like hell." Ginny added. Moments later they heard a repeated knock on the window. By it stood an owl. Not a familiar one to anyone there. Luna stood up and opened the window. After petting the bird she took a letter and unfolded it. She started reading out loud.

"This is one of Andormeda's owls since we didn't have any at Hogwarts. She sent her to us some time ago. I guess even though you're not here you need to know.

Bellatrix attacked Azkaban. She freed many deatheaters along with Dolohov, Yaxley and the surviving Carrow. Lots of others joined her. She promised them all revenge.

There is one more thing. She sent a phial with memories to Malfoy. He watched as she killed his father. There was also a letter saying that everyone he knows is going to end the same starting with Narcissa. All of us had seen it. Malfoy left to talk to his mother yesterday. He'll be staying with her for a week. I don't expect an answer since owl probably left the moment you took this. It took her a lot of time to get there so please if she is still around there feed her.

Stay safe.

Harry Potter."

Luna finished reading the letter and met the faces of her friends. Lydia and Stiles shared the same scared and sad face at the same time, and Ginny tried to hide everything she felt at the moment. She never liked Malfoy, but she would never wish him something like that. Blaise on the other hand, took a few long breaths before breaking the silence that ruled.

"His mum is probably shattered." He muttered. Ginny glanced over to him when he continued. "That's why he is with her."

"Well he probably wanted to be with someone too. It's horrible thing to go through alone." Lydia suggested squeezing Stiles's hand.

"Malfoy never really felt love for his father. It was more like fear and a wish to prove himself. It probably hurt him, but he will get over it. His mother on the other side, he loves. That's why he was with her. She loved her husband." Blaise explained.

"I'm sorry. I would really like to go back to the room now. Stiles would you mind coming with me?" Lydia stood up slowly and Stiles jumped right after her. He helped her up the stairs and they got lost after the bang of the door.

"I'll leave something out for the bird." Luna said quietly placing the letter on the table next to Ginny. She took it and read it again.

"He broke Harry's nose when his father ended in Azkaban for the first time. I can't believe that he didn't love him." She spoke.

"Trust me, he didn't. He looked up to him. He wanted to be just like him, but as the time went on he realized he doesn't have the guts to be the merciless murderer. In our third year we practiced with a boggart. Do you know what it does?"

"It takes the shape of what the person fears the most."

"Exactly. When Lupin called Draco up he didn't do it. But later that day I saw him alone in front of the cabinet standing and when the cabinet opened it was the figure of his father that came out. Trust me he didn't love him. He was terrified of him."

Dark shadow covered Ginny's face as she listened to what Blaise was saying. She could feel physical pain in her chest. She never thought that she will feel sorry for Draco Malfoy. But somehow she did. It was impossible to find any words to answer it. Blaise sure did prove his point.

"Where is Stiles?" Derek came from behind the stairs. Ginny took a deep breath as she tried to regain herself.

"Up there with Lydia." Blaise said.

"Good. I have some good news for-"

"What news?" Stiles came down the stairs.

"You will half like it and well the other half you'll just have to get over." Derek explained. "Someone found Deucalion and he decided to come here so that he can help you in exchange of meeting The Void."

"He already knows me. And that's not the bad part is it?" Stiles frowned. "Oh my God, the bad part is actually a person isn't it?" Derek nodded. "Who?"

"Theo Reaken."
