The Marauders: The Next Generation 2
As Lavender looked up and saw the guys she burst into tears.
"Who found my baby? she asked as she squeezed he son.
"Kyleigh had a vision, she told us were to look," said Draco proudly.
"Let me get this straight, the daughter of Hermione Granger, the one person who doesn't believe in visions, the one who believes that divination is a bunch of crap, her daughter is a seer?" she said amazed.
"Looks that way," Draco said with a chuckle.
"Well isn't that rich. Where is this wonderful child that found my baby?" asked Lavender.
As Kyleigh stepped up to Lavender she was a little apprehensive. When Lavender saw her she pulled her into her embrace and said, "Thank you so much, Trevor means so much to me, he is my baby."
"I'm glad I could help," said Kyleigh hoping to get away from this smothering woman as soon as she could.
While Lavender was pouring over Kyleigh, Draco was taking advantage of Hermione's ring. (remember the one that has telepathic capabilities)
"Hermione, I just wanted you to know we would be home soon," he thought.
"Did you find him?" she asked.
"Yes and all is well. I will tell you all the details when we get home."
"Alright, see you soon."
When he looked at Kyleigh he noticed the discomfort on his daughter's face, he smiled and rescued her.
"Kyleigh, I think that it is time to go home. Mommy is waiting for us," said Draco. Turning to Lavender he asked, "Would you, Trevor and of course your husband like to join us tomorrow for Christmas?"
"Well first off, I'm not married and second I have already promised my mother we would be coming to her house. But thank you for the invitation anyway," she said.
"Well maybe some other time then," he said as he turned to Kyleigh and asked, "Ready to go home?"
"Yes Daddy."
"Right then, Have a Happy Christmas," said Draco as he took Kyleigh's hand and walked to the door where everyone else was already gathered to apperate back to Malfoy Manor.
"Thanks. You too," said Lavender as Draco and company walked outside to leave.
When they arrived back at the manor, they were welcomed with dozens of questions.
"Is he alright?" asked Ron's wife Patricia.
"Yes, but we almost didn't find him, he was already covered in snow and was barely breathing," said Draco.
"Kyleigh, I am so proud of you," said Hermione as she hugged her daughter.
"You'll never guess who's son it was," said Ron.
"Who's," asked Ginny.
"Lavender Brown. Apparently he has wandered off before," explained Ron.
"Uncle Ron, he didn't wander off, some man took him," stated Kyleigh.
"What man sweetness?" asked Draco tenderly.
"The man that was sitting at one of the tables in the back of the Three Broomsticks," explained Kyleigh.
"Did he hurt him Kyleigh?" asked Katarina nervously.
"No, he went with him, they were holding hands. It's not the first time he has left with him. Trevor got angry this time and ran away from him," said Kyleigh.
"What do you mean? Does he know this man?" asked Hermione.
"Yes, I saw them in a regular dream. The man gave Trevor candy and they walked off together," Kyleigh said as she tried to stifle a yawn.
"It looks like my sweetness needs to go back to bed. Would you like me and mommy to tuck you in?"
"Yes Daddy," she said as she took both their hand and started to walk up the staircase.
"We will be back in a few minutes," said Hermione to her guests.
After they tucked in Kyleigh they went over to the room where all the boys were sleeping to look in on their youngest child, Martin who was almost five. As they looked at his sleeping form, Hermione furrowed her brow, "How does that child get dirty when he is asleep?" she asked Draco as she noticed a dirt smudge on Martin's cheek.
"I don't know. I think he is a dirt magnet that one," Draco said with a laugh as they walked out of the room.
"Well I guess we should get back to our guests," Hermione said just before Draco pulled her into his arms and kissed her passionately.
"Do we have too?" asked Draco in a low voice as he nibbled on her neck.
"You know we do, however I will make it up to you." said Hermione seductively.
"Oh really? And what are you going to do to make it up to me?" asked Draco with a smile.
Hermione got on her tip toes and whispered something in his ear which made him turn slightly red. When she saw that she had gotten the response out of him that she wanted she laughed, "Draco are you blushing?"
"Most definitely and if you do what you say it will be worth going back down stairs."
Hermione giggled and kissed him again with all the passion that she could muster.
"Keep that up and we will never make it down stairs for the rest of the week," Draco said as he patted Hermione playfully on the butt.
"Off you go," he said as they made their way down stairs.

Over the next few months, things quieted down. Sirius had gone to Lavender to tell her about the man but all she would say was that Kyleigh must be mistaken and thanked him for his concern.
One sunny Sunday morning in early April they were having breakfast when Hermione asked everyone what they had planned for the day.
"Well Draco and I we going to take Martin and the twins horseback riding," said Sirius.
"Daddy, do I have to go?" asked Dierdra, the youngest of the twins, who had just turned five.
"No dear if you don't want to. I think Hunter and I can manage without you," said Sirius.
"Thanks," she said as she turned to Kyleigh and asked "Do you want to have a tea party with me and mommy?"
"Sure, I was going to read but that sounds like fun," said Kyleigh.
"Hermione, what are you up to today?" asked Draco.
"I was going over to see George and Kaitlin. She hasn't been feeling very well and the twins aren't due for another month. I thought that she could use some company besides George."
"Yeah, I remember what a worry wart he was when the triplets were due. Give her our love, or should it be sympathy?" Draco said with a chuckle.
"Sympathy," said Hermione, Sirius and Narcissa all at the same time. Everyone laughed.
As the men headed out to go horseback riding, Narcissa decided to serve tea to the ladies in the sitting room that adjoined her bedroom.
"If you ladies would like to dress for tea, my jewelry box is on the dresser. I am going to get the tea and will be right back," she said as the girls started to giggle as they were already dressed up in some of Narcissa's finest dress robes.
"What necklace are you going to wear?" asked Dierdra as she pulled out a large diamond on a shiny gold chain.
"I have always liked Grandma's pearls," said Kyleigh as she pulled a string of beautiful pearls out of the box.
As Kyleigh put the pearls around her neck she stopped dead in her tracks.
"Kyleigh, what's wrong?" asked Dierdra.
She didn't respond, just stood there whimpering with a glazed look in her eyes. When Dierdra asked her again and she wouldn't answer, she turned and ran from the room.
A few minutes later, Narcissa came running in the room followed by Dierdra. When they entered they found Kyleigh crouched in the corner crying.
"Kyleigh, what's the matter dear? Are you hurt?" asked Narcissa before she noticed Kyleigh's eyes. They were glassed over like she was in some kind of trance. It was then that Narcissa noticed the pearls. She slowly reached out and removed them from around Kyleigh's neck. It was then that Kyleigh blinked and threw herself in Narcissa's arms.
"Kyleigh, what did you see?" asked Narcissa in a very quiet voice.
Shaking, Kyleigh said,
"I saw a man, with hair like Daddy's," she said as she continued to cry.
"What was he doing?" asked Narcissa almost knowing what she was going to say.
"He was hurting you. He was ripping your clothes and hitting you. You were crying and then he pulled out a knife and cut you," she said as Narcissa also began to cry.
"Gramdma, why did he hurt you? Who was that?" Kyleigh asked as she tried to calm Narcissa down.
"That was your Daddy's father," she said quietly and then she whispered in her ear, "Let's talk about this later, I think we are scaring Dierdra."
She nodded as Narcissa put her arm out for Dierdra to come into her embrace and they all three hugged.
After they had tea, they were sitting talking when Narcissa noticed that Dierdra had fallen asleep. She covered her with a blanket and motioned for Kyleigh to join her out on the balcony.
When they got out on the balcony, Kyleigh started asking questions.
"Why would Daddy's father want to hurt you?" she asked.
"He wasn't a very pleasant man, he found pleasure in hurting other people." said Narcissa delicately.
"Did Lucius every hurt my Daddy?" she asked.
"Yes he did." she said pausing for a moment.
"How did you know his name was Lucius?" she asked afraid of the answer.
Kyleigh swallowed hard and said quietly,
"Because when I had on the pearls I heard you scream "No, Lucius please don't hurt me anymore."
With this Narcissa gathered Kyleigh in her arms, crying softly. Kyleigh was holding on to her tightly when they heard Draco come into the room.
"Mother, what's wrong?"
As Narcissa explained to Draco what had happened he went white. Turning to Kyleigh he asked, "Sweetness, are you alright?"
She ran into his arms crying, "Yes Daddy, he was so mean. I'm sorry," she said through her tears.
"Why are you sorry?"
"Because he hurt you and Grandma," she said sadly.
"It was a long time ago. We are fine now, we are happy. We have you," he said as he smiled at her kissing her gently on the cheek.
"I love you Daddy."
"And I love you with all my heart. You are my sweetness," he said as he wiped the tears out of his own eyes.
