Hey everyone!

So I remembered to post finally. It's been a rough week and then Crimes of Grindelwald messed with my head. If you're reading Flora I'm looking at getting that going again with the very first plot I had. Only problem is that it is similar to the start of CoG but we shall see. Big thanks to everyone still reading this. Means a lot.

Lots of Love,

Hidden Child-Part 36:

"I want to go to Hogsmeade," Lyra had said, "can't I just wear protect charms and stay deep within the crowds? I love being able to go to Hogsmeade with Draco, Daphne and Astoria."

"It is out of the question Miss Malfoy. You were with your parents and she managed to get you," Dumbledore said.

"Because we went beyond the village where nobody goes," Draco said, "Tonks would come this time so she'd be protected."

"Draco the answer is still no," the Headmaster said before Lyra just walked out of the office and her magic slammed the door behind her. Draco just sighed before he went after his sister. Tonks was listening and she watched and saw how crushed her young cousin was.

Since learning about her cousin Tonks was wanting her to have everything that she had even if that meant breaking the rules. She walked out of the Headmaster's office and headed to her rooms to write an owl to her Aunt Narcissa to see if she could help.

Lyra had instantly headed to the library and picked her reading book from behind the desk and went and sat over by the window and began to read. She didn't even want to see or speak to anyone. She just began to carry on reading her book.

She had been reading for an hour when Draco finally appeared beside her and pulled her out of the library after leaving her book with Madam Pince.

"Can I not just be left to read in peace?" Lyra asked.

"You're coming to Hogsmeade with us…"

"What…?"

"Tonks fire called mother and she fire called Dumbledore and talked things through and you can go but there are conditions. You have to stay with us and Tonks will apparate into the village with you and apparate back ok?" Lyra wrapped her arms around her brother and he held her close.

"Thank you…"

"Don't thank me. Thank Tonks. She was the one who fire called mother for you," Draco said holding his sister close, "now go and tell Zenon the good news," he said. Lyra, of course, did run off to Zenon the good news and Draco was happy that his sister was happy once more.

The Saturday came and Lyra appeared in the Entrance Hall and headed over to Draco, Daphne, Astoria and Tonks disguised as Miss Davis.

"What's she doing here?" Pansy asked as she spotted Lyra stood there with Draco.

"Miss Davis is a trained Auror and has powers to take Lyra directly to the village," Dumbledore said as he heard the witch.

"Meet us in the Three Broomsticks," Draco told Tonks before she grabbed Lyra's arm and apparated away with the Malfoy daughter.

"Nobody else try that. Miss Davis has permission," Dumbledore said.

Lyra and Tonks were sat in the Three Broomsticks when Draco and the Sisters walked in and sat down; Butterbeers already there for them.

"I could get used to this," Draco said.

"Well I suppose we can have this as our little agreement," Tonks said before sipping her own drink, "we'll grab a pumpkin pasty outside and then I'll just follow you for around. Problem Miss Parkinson?"

"Why are you with them?" Pansy asked.

"I'm here because I'm watching and protecting Lyra," Tonks said, "not that it's got anything to do with you." Pansy just looked before she walked off.

Eventually Draco took his sister's hand as they walked outside.

"Silver said he wanted Fudge Flies," Lyra said.

"Well let's do Honeydukes first then," Daphne said because no doubt with Tori and Lyra we'll get stuck in the Tommes and Scrolls forever," she added earning a playful smack from her sister.

The three headed to Honeydukes and Draco cast an invisible tie around his wrist and his sister's so he wouldn't have to hold his sister's hand but it would keep them together.

"I want to pay for Silver's Fudge Flies but…" Lyra started.

"I'm paying for everything else so you have money for Tommes and Scrolls," Draco said finishing her sentence. He could feel the Dementors and was trying to not react to it. He knew there was a chance that Lyra would be affected by them. He'd always been warned about the Dementors and their possible effects.

He walked around with Lyra and got the sweets required before she paid for Zenon's and then the group headed to Tommes and Scrolls. He let the invisible strap off as Astoria was going around with his sister so he know she'd be OK. Tonks was also shadowing them. He just sat down with Daphne and kept an eye on the star that was secretly in the air above Lyra's head.

As suspected they did spend ages in Tommes and Scrolls and quickly had a look around. Draco knew that whilst they were in the shops the Dementors would have no effect on Lyra and he wanted it to remain that way. He understood what was happening but Lyra didn't. All she had heard were screams and torture.

His plan instantly failed when they got held up as they headed to a shop that Daphne wanted to go in. The first thing he felt was Lyra tugging at the string and then her screaming out as a Dementor headed straight for her. Her head filled with memories and she fell to the floor. Draco threw out a weak shield before Tonks' patronus suddenly flew in front and the witch just instantly apparated the Malfoy siblings back behind the protection barrier and Draco rushed his sister down to their godfather wondering what their parents were going to say when they heard what had happened to their precious daughter.
