"Karni DePrue?" asked Ron, laughing. "What kind of name is that?"
Everyone turned to look at him, because they had forgotten he was there.
"One you should fear," said Narcissus. "By the way, it's pronounced DePure," he spat. Suddenly, he started laughing.
"Aw, shit" said Draco. "He's laughing again! He's freggin' crazy!"
"What is so funny?" asked Dumbledore, calmly.
"My Master is here…" he said, as her suddenly stopped laughing.
The window in Dumbledore's office flew open. Wind came blowing in, parchment flew about the room. And then…they heard a laugh.
Not a cruel, low laugh, but a high-pitched giggle, almost funny in it's sound.
"Teeheeheehee! I've finally got here!" said the voice, gleefully.
As the person took off it's cloak, a woman was revealed.
A gasp came from Narcissus. "Karni DePrue is…a woman?!" he exclaimed. He seemed to be torn between shock and joy.
She had long, curly reddish-burgandyish hair. Her eyes were blue, ever changing shades; never too dark, never too light. Her hair was like fire and her eyes…ice.
Her billowing robe fit every curve perfectly.
"You guys can stop staring at me now!" she said, giggling. "This is my first break-in and appearance. As it is your first time meeting me!"
Karni glanced around the room. She saw Albus Dumbledore, Minerva McGonnagal, Severus Snape, a tall red head, Draco Malfoy and…Hermione Granger.
There's something different about her…, she thought. Her vibes are…stronger than everyone else's…Like she's…special or something…, Karni dismissed the thought.
Suddenly, Snape gasped. "Ivy…DePrue!"
"No," said Karni, all giggly-ness gone. "My Mother," she said, stiffly.
"And…Your father?" asked Snape.
"Lord Voldemort," she said, wrinkling her nose at the name.
"Why that son-of-a-witch!" exclaimed Snape.
"Don't fret," she said softly, smiling. "I can telled you loved her. She had no love for him. I was a mistake. She was chosen to be his wife, only to be sent away when they found Godric Gryfindor's blood running through her veins. Funny though," she paused to laugh. "I have Salazar Slytherin's blood, as well as Godric's, yet I'm evil as they come."
"But I lived in Azakaban, until I was ten, maybe that explains it. I doubt it though. My mother always said 'If your destined to be a certain way, it will be, sooner or later', for me, it was sooner."
Suddenly, she remembered who she was talking to.
"Ohmigods! Well, let it be known I was here," she said. "Let it be known, my first appearance was at…Hogwarts" Karni said, giggling.
She grabbed Narcissus and was gone.
"Well…" said McGonagal.
"Shit" said Draco.
"Ok…" said Hermione. They were all apparently shocked, from the way the new "Dark Lord-ess" was.
Dumbledore got up and said "Everyone go back to their classes. I will alert the ministry, although she doesn't seem…all together, it's better to be safe."
"Minerva, take over" and then, he was gone.
"Dark Lordess!" said Narcissus, bowing to her.
"Yes, O'Neal?" asked Karni.
"Why did you conceal yourself?"
"I didn't. My top advisors knew of my identity. I told them not to rat on me."
"What did you…do to make sure they didn't…rat on you?"
"I threatened to kill them" said Karni, as if it was that obvious.
They trio was still standing in the hall.
"Well…" said Draco.
"Eerr…" said Hermione.
"Shoot!" said Ron.
Suddenly, Hermione had an idea. She turned to Ron and kissed him for all she was worth.
"What the fuck?!?!" yelled Draco, apparently…upset.
"Thanks, Mione. I needed that" said Ron, grinning.
"Well, it worked for Draco too" she said, smiling. "Don't be so mad love," she said, turning to Draco. "It's your turn now."
"Might make me worse" he whispered.
"We'll take that chance" said Hermione.
"So, Albus, how did they take it?" asked McGonagal.
"They believed me. Glad Arthur took over the ministry" he said, sighing. "Fudge would have never believed me"
"So, the news is out" finished Snape.
"That was…nice" said Draco, as they pulled away.
"Ahem" said Ron.
"Oops" "Sorry"
"Let's go to our common room, okay you guys?" asked Hermione. "Draco's never seen it" she said, grinning wickedly, pulling them down the hall.
"I need Malfoy!" screamed Karni.
"Which…Which one, Lordess Karni?" asked a servent.
"Draco" she said. "And don't call me that! I like Goddess Karni better," she said, siting back down in her chair, smiling.
The servant left, only to return a few moments later, with Narcissus.
"So, you want Draco, Goddess Karni?" he asked her, as the servant left.
"Yes" she said simply.
"For what, Goddess Karni?" asked Narcissus.
"You shall see" she said, giggling. "Wait, why do people say 'You shall see' all mysterious and stuff! You don't really *see* why! You figure it out, or eavesdrop and get the reason!" When she paused to breath, Narcissus excused himself, and left the room, shaking his head.
Jeez, that woman can gone on for ages about something that simple! He thought. I feel sorry for the poor soul that she's chosen to be her top advisor. And I thought I was tough, being old Voldie's helper. He's *nothing* compaired to her! As she does is talk about hair, feelings, clothes, she rants and she…giggles!
"…and he said, 'Beth, honey, put the cornflakes back in the box" said Ron,
The three climbed through the portrait hole, laughing.
As the sat down in the common room, Draco said "Ber mine's funnier!" laughing as he challenged Ron.
"A few months ago, there was an opening with the Ministry of Magic, for an assassin. These highly classified positions are hard to fill, and there's a lot of testing and background checks involved
before you can even be considered for the position.
After sending some applicants through the background checks,
training and testing, they narrowed the possible choices down
to two wizards and a witch, but only one position was available.
The day came for the final test to see which person would
get the extremely secretive job. The MoM men administering
the test took one of the men to a large metal door and handed
him a muggle gun.
'We must know that you will follow your
instructions no matter what the circumstances,' they explained. 'Inside this room, you will find your wife sitting in a chair. Take this gun and kill her.'
The man got a shocked look on his face and said, 'You can't
be serious! I could never shoot my own wife!' 'Well,' said the
MoM man, 'you're definitely not the right man for this job
then.'
So they brought the second man to the same door and handed him a gun. 'We must know that you will follow instructions no
matter what the circumstances,' they explained to the second
man. 'Inside you will find your wife sitting in a chair.
Take this gun and kill her.'
The second man looked a bit shocked, but nevertheless took
the gun and went in the room. All was quiet for about five
minutes, then the door opened. The man came out of the room
with tears in his eyes. 'I tried to shoot her. I just
couldn't pull the trigger and shoot my wife. I guess I'm not
the right man for the job.'
'No,' the MoM man replied. 'You don't have what it takes.
Take your wife and go the hell home.'
Now they're down to the woman. Again they lead
her to the same door and hand her the same gun. 'We must be
sure that you will follow instructions no matter what the
circumstances. This is your final test. Inside you will find
your husband sitting in a chair. Take this gun and kill him.'
The woman took the gun and opened the door. Before the door even closed all the way, the MoM man heard the gun start firing, one shot after another, for 13 shots. Then they heard screaming, crashing, banging on the walls. This went on for
several minutes, then all went quiet. The door opened slowly,
and there stood the woman…… She wiped the sweat from
her brow and said, 'You guys didn't tell me the gun was
loaded with blanks! I had to beat the son of a bitch to
death with the chair!' " finished Draco.
As they all laugh, Hermione has a 'moment'.
This seems too good to be true, she thought. I love it, but I have a feeling it won't last long… She began to brace herself, just incase.
Suddenly, Ginny burst through the portrait hole.
"Guys, Harry's gone!" she cried out, breathing heavily, obviously winded.
A/N: Heeheehee. Ain't I evil? Where is Harry? What does this Karni want with Draco? Why are Draco and Ron getting along? You'll just have to wait until June the 6th to find out! Or, if I feel nice, I'll upload chapter 6 tomorrow! Happy Independence Day!
Thanks to all the nice people who have reviewed, and thank you ahead of time for reviewing! So, hopefully, you will!
