I reasserted control over Ginny after the sorting was over. Once I was in full control of her, I began my next phase of the plan. If you are thinking that I am going to kill Ginny fear not. I will not hurt an innocent girl like her for my rebirth, no that would be stupid. Why would I want to draw attention to myself? No, I merely wanted to use her for something else. There are many other easily available targets which will not be under Dumbeldore's prime observation. My rebirth will not be known to anybody. Anonymity is the greatest offence and defence.
After a week of studying the layout of Hogwarts, I decide the safest way to navigate is by the use of Marauder's map. Two stunning spells and a memory charm was all it took to obtain the map from the Weasely twins. It will be instrumental in my future, so using the map I located my target and waited for him in a safe corner under a disillusion charm. When I had a clear shot I cast the Imperius curse on him and commanded him to go to the seventh floor. We reached the seventh floor and I walked across the wall three times envisioning what I want the room to be. Ginny and our imperuised guest entered the room.
I let Ginny set the diary on the hands of our guest. Then I completely overrode the mind of our guest and assumed complete command of him. Then I stunned Ginny and set the diary close to this body's chest and meditated. Slowly my soul started to enter the body from the diary and I completely overrode the soul inside this body. A being is dead when all the ties the soul hend to this world is cut off. This is what Avada Kedavra does. It destroys the tether of the soul to the body. I used the same concept. Once I had full domination of the magic in this body I eradicated soul within. I absorbed the memories from the soul and its magic so that it will not return as a ghost. Then I released the soul from my hold and it dispersed into nothingness and my soul set into the body. My magic became denser and the synchronising of my soul and the body began. For some time I meditated and controlled the flow of magic within me and at last, I was satisfied with the results. I stood up and flexed my new body to get the motor functions of the body correct. I took the wand owned by my container and studied it. Dragon heartstrings and hawthorn wood dominant and resilient like me a perfect match for now. I let out a deep laugh not the evil kind but with happiness as I regained my sense of touch, smell, sight, pain, all of it. I had a new appreciation for life and decided that I will not waste it. I conjured a mirror and looked at it. Grey eyes stared back at me, silver blond hair which was neatly combed to one side was on my head. I saw the face of Draco Malfoy staring right back at me. Yes, from now on I am Draco Malfoy the only son of Lucius Malfoy and the heir to the Malfoy fortune and noble house of Malfoy. I am here to stay forever.
After my evil villain cool posing was done I reinnervated Ginny and immediately modified her memories. She would be perfectly fine and will find herself awake tomorrow morning with full of life. I summoned my personal elf Twinky.
"Master, what shall twinky do for you." Twinky asked
"Bring this girl to Gryffindor dorms without alerting anyone, tuck her in the bed and return to the manor and never speak of this to anyone in any form." I ordered
"Yes master." Twinky popped with Ginny
Then I destroyed the diary and then returned to Slytherin dorms and fell asleep.
The next few weeks every Slytherin and some select Griffindors noticed that a certain Malfoy has been unusually quiet. In fact, he was being studios and ignoring his famous hobby of clashing with the golden trio. Everyone thought that this was a ruse but after two weeks no insults or clashes occurred. The Malfoy scion was concentrating on his studies and scoring house points left and right. While everybody was freaked out by the behaviour two people were very happy with this outcome. Dumbledor was happy that one of the Slytherins and a son of a death eater at that has taken an initiative to be more accepting of others now. This enforced his belief that everyone could be redeemed. Another person that was happy was Severus Snape. He was the boy's godfather and has tried to divert his attention to academics rather than seeking out Potter brat and his friends and finally, his efforts were bearing fruits. Moreover, he can award so many points to Slytherin and he hoped this year the house cup would be theirs.
I fell into a routine. Classes will be till 2 pm after that students were free to do what they want. Most played quidditch or other games to pass time but I spent most of this in Library and room of requirement either designing rituals or practising magic. The room was an excellent tool for training magic and for physical exercise I would ask the room to provide a pool and swim in it daily.
Not for long the gift of Nimbus 2001's arrived for Slytherin house and I bought my way into the chaser spot in the team and thus I had my confrontation with the golden trio at last. Slytherin house and Griffindor team were arguing with who got the pitch.
"We got here first so this is our training pitch now." wood said
"We have written permission from Professor Snape to use the pitch as we have to try out our new chaser." Flint said
"New chaser who is that." Wood asked
"I am." I walked in front of the team
"You how did you get in the team." Harry asked
The whole team revealed the brand new Nimbus 2001 brooms. The lions were shocked.
"Why are you surprised Potter fame is not the only currency in the world." I said
"At least he didn't have to get in the team by using money Malfoy. He got in the team for his skill." Hermione said
"By breaking the rules of Hogwarts because of his fame you mean. You conveniently forgot that Granger. It seems spending time with the Weasel has addled your brain." I said
"You take that back Malfoy." Ron surged forward with his broken wand
"Oh, and what are you going to do about it." I taunted
He cast a curse at me but it backfired on him and then he started coughing up slugs. We all had a good laugh as the Gryffindor team left and then we started our practice session. I had the innate ability to control magic so it helped in controlling the broom easily. I did some strengthening rituals on the body with the aid of the room so it was very easy for me to do complicated manoeuvres. We left in good spirits as the broom gave us an impeccable advantage over other teams.
The first match of the quidditch season this year has been between Slytherin and Griffindor. We thoroughly thrashed the Griffindor team . Slytherin chasers alone scored 240 points mainly due to my contribution. The weasely twins tried their best to connect me with a bludger but it never happened as it was more interested in chasing after Potter. So we scored goals after goals and Griffindor only managed to score 30 points. Just like I remembered Potter caught the snitch but the change was that we won. The snitch only can get 150 points Gryffindor only gad 180 points so Slytherin won by 60 points. A large celebration was thrown in Slytherin common room.
"I am surprised you are not joining in the celebrations Draco." Daphne Greengrass said as she stood next to me
"It was fun for some time but I am not interested in wasting more time for it." I said
"Why are you not joining them." I asked her
"The same reason as your's." She said
"Well enjoy the party while it lasts I am retiring to bed. Goodnight Daphne." I said
"Goodnight Draco." She said
I entered my dorms and fell asleep on my bed.
