Morning came as Chandra and Luna finished their book. Chandra groaned and pushed her chin to the side,making her neck crack. Luna jumped a bit, looking back at her, ending a tired laugh.

"Come on, we gotta go."

Luna looked at her weirdly.

"Chandra, don't muggles have to book flights?"

Chandra laughed, pulling a stack of tickets from her sketchbook.

"Yes. I did that while everyone thought I was in here after mine and Mione's fight."

"But why did you need to talk to her about it then?"

Chandra grinned and put the tickets in her book.

"She embarrassed me...I wanted to see her scared. Plus if she found out at the airport she would have caused a scene…"

Luna nodded in agreement and got off of the bed, yawning.

"I guess we should have slept then…"

"You'll have nearly eleven hours to sleep on the flight, well except for any layovers."

"Why so long?"

"It will be dark by the time we land and get to my car. Whoever wants to apparate to my house with Hermione can...but I'm gonna drive home...and I love driving at night."

The girls smiled at each other, Chandra not knowing what to do. Before either of them could do anything the door swung open and Bellatrix spoke harshly.

"You were rushing us yesterday and now your being slo-"

She looked at the two of them and grinned.

"Got a thing for blonde's, do you ginger? not enough to have Draco wanting you?"

Chandra spoke through her teeth.

"Draco is family. Luna is...uh…"

She blushed again and looked away. Bella chuckled.

"Damn. Is it that bad? Luna might want to break that. Good thing you're not this weak in a fight."

Chandra turned to her, her face as red as a traffic light and spoke almost in a growl.

"If you don't get out of here and get yourself and mione ready i'll show you how well I fight without magic!"

Bellatrix was shocked at first but it faded into anger. She glared at the fuming redhead. She had to fight the urge to grab her wand and instead smiled and walked away.

Chandra looked at Luna shortly before picking up a small bag and her sketchbook. She hurried past her and down the stairs. Luna looked around the room before calmly following.

A few hours later the five of them were sitting on a plane. Draco was constantly talking to everyone. Chandra spoke back only because she knew it was keeping his mind off being on a plane. Hermione had brought a book to read and Luna was asking her about it while Bella sat quietly, looking quite sick. As Hermione got onto Luna for peering over the back of her seat so much Chandra felt a quick hard kick at the back of her seat.

Eventually Chandra and Luna fell asleep. Chandra shifted, laying against the window when she was jolted awake by a hefty kick. Having had enough she turned around looking over her seat to see Bella glaring at her.

"What do you want?!"

"Nothing. Seeing as I can't hurt you without making people mad, this is what I'm resorting to."

Chandra looked over to her sleeping cousin before turning her attention back to the dark witch.

"Look I'm sorry, but this is the only way to get there that isn't extremely slow, or extremely risky."

Bellatrix rolled her eyes.

"That isn't what I'm talking about"

"What, me screaming at you this morning?"

"Yes. I brought you here, you answer to me. How dare you speak to me that way."

Chandra looked at her with a raised brow.

"It has nothing to do with being on a plane?"

"Well, it may…"

"Oh Jesus fuckin-"

Chandra rolled her eyes and sighed.

"If I buy you some drinks will you chill the fuck out?"

Bella looked her over and spoke in a sharp voice.

"You mean to say I could have been drunk through this entire torture?"

Chandra grinned and sat back down, calling the attendant when she heard Bella growl under her breath.

"I should fucking kill you, Chandra…"

After a good sleep, a layover, and having to order multiple drinks again, the pilot made the announcement about their arrival. Soon they were following Chandra around to the back of the airport. When they stopped Chandra waved her wand and a cherry red t-top Camaro materialized. Chandra smiled as she opened the driver's door, looking back at the group. Bellatrix shook her head and began to protest.

"No. No. No! I'm not getting in another muggle machine. Not today just tell me where you live and I'll aparate."

Chandra shook her head.

"No need, Hermione knows where to go, unless she wants to ride with me."

Bella looked at Hermione.

"You know how to apparate?"

"Yes, I've only done it a few times and I don't like it either."

Chandra smiled and Hermione's shoulders dropped.

"Chandra I'm sorry but I'm tired from the plane ride."

She grabbed bellas hand and looked at the group.

"Does anyone else want to come with us"

Draco shook his head. Of course he would want to be near Chandra. Luna looked at Hermione and smiled.

"I think I'll stay with her. She hasn't had much sleep, so I can talk to her to keep her up."

Chandra smiled lightly before addressing Hermione.

"Hermione, remember to apparate to the living room. Don't end up outside, my neighbors are nuts."

"I know Chandra."

With that they disapparated. Draco and Luna looked at each other for a moment before Luna smiled, walking over to the passenger side, getting in, leaving Draco to sit in the back. As they got in Chandra turned the key and the car came to life. She looked between them and bucked her seat belt.

"Buckle up, people drive like idiots here."

They did as they were told and Draco looked out the window as Chandra started driving.

"Where are we, exactly?"

Chandra smiled and spoke with fake pride.

"Houston, Texas. Where people think they are better than everyone and believe they own the road."

Draco nodded and Luna looked around the car before Chandra nudged her arm.

"Luna open the compartment in front of you and hand me my smokes…"

They drove for forty-five minutes. The whole ride Draco was glaring at the two girls as they talked and smiled. He was relieved when he felt the car stop and saw Chandra put it in park. They left the vehicle and Chandra led them to the door, opening it and letting them walk in before her.

Bella was standing in the living room with Hermione. She looked at the group and spoke when Chandra came in.

"I was expecting something smaller."

"What do you mean it is small. It's a house."

"No. It's a mansion, maybe a third of the size of mine. I thought you were all about a simple muggle life?"

Chandra rolled her eyes and threw her bag on the sofa.

"There are rich muggles, Bella. I just happen to have a lot of money from my birth parents...so why not show it."

She went quiet for a second but took a deep breath and spoke up.

"Okay, I have plenty of bedrooms, everyone picks one. The locked ones are off-limits."

She took a keyring from her bag and took one of the three keys and handed it to Bella.

"The key to Hermione's room…"

She rubbed her neck and picked up her bag before walking down the hall. She then unlocked a door and disappeared into the room. Bella looked at Hermione with a questioning look.

"Did I say something?"

Hermione sighed and shook her head.

"No she did."

A few hours passed before Chandra reapeard. The others were sitting at the dining table talking as Chandra walked past to get to the kitchen. When she reached her destination she groaned as she looked at her coffee pot, seeing that Hermione already made a pot for her. She spoke to herself.

"She makes it strong…"

As she finished making her coffee and mixing everything she wanted into it, Hermione entered the kitchen with Bella in tow. Chandra looked at them, sipping her coffee.

"Yes…"

Hermione smiled and looked at her cousin.

"Bella and the others were asking what the third room was for."

"No."

"Why not?"

"Why should I let her see, so everyone can tell me how unhealthy I am?"

Bella looked at her and spoke in a questioning tone.

"So it has something to do with me?"

"No! Yes.. no…"

"Which is it?"

"It's where I do my research. On all of the deatheaters, not just you."

Hermione raised her brow.

"But…"

Chandra groaned and looked at them.

"Okay. But after some research...and me having a sick mind, I went a lot deeper than I should have into researching you specifically."

Hermione nudged bellas side.

"See... and that's why I told her about the prophecy."

Bella grinned.

"Flattering….now show me."

"No."

"Excuse me?"

Chandra brought her cup to her lips, taking a long drink. When she looked at her she gave a rude smile.

"Coffee and cigarettes are number one on my list of priorities right now….while showing you that room is at the very bottom."

Bella narrowed her eyes at Chandra, who just shrugged. The dark witch then smiled.

"Alright then. It is your house."

Bella went to leave the kitchen. And Chandra groaned, making Bella stop and look at her.

"Maybe later… Just let me be home for a while. I'm sure Hermione wants to spend some time with you…."

Bella smiled and left the kitchen, pulling Hermione along with her. When they were out of sight Chandra took another drink and opened a drawer, pulling out the letter Dumbledore sent her about her birth parents. After looking over it she sighed, tossing it back in its drawer. She quickly shook off whatever she was feeling and grabbed her cup, leaving to join the group.
