Skies of Gray
A/N: Hello again. Did we enjoy the suspense? Maybe? I finally have gotten my own computer so I'll be able to type more::yay::^_^ So, um, who did Ara kill? *pauses to think* Um... well...(what does this tell you about the author?) ~~That she's a weird psycho bitch, who shouldn't be trusted with a keyboard?~~ (SARAH!) ~~Oops~~
Ara stopped in the middle of the hall and glanced over at Draco. This particular hall happened to be one that the other students rarely used, so no one heard her next words.
"Draco Viridian Malfoy!" She hissed. "If you don't tell me which girl has got your insides twisted up into knots, I am abandoning you to the wolves!"
H scowled at her. "Why do you have to be so damn emotion sensitive?"
"Part of my punishment." she replied crossing her arms. "Now spill!"
"Spill." he whispered gazing of into space. "She told me to do that once."
"The same way I'm using the word?" Ara asked cautiously.
"Yeah."
"Weasel-Girl." she said suddenly. "The little treasure of the Muggle-loving Weasley? Her? She's messing with you? Or rather you're messing with her?" she sounded disgusted, but her clear, blue eyes were amused.
"No!" Draco protested. "It's nothing like that!"
"Oh?" she arched a thin black eyebrow. "Then what's this?" she mashed her lips against the back of her hand. "Ginny oh Ginny!" she fell back against the wall laughing. Her eyes widened when she saw his red face. "Oh...my...God." she whispered. "It is her isn't it?"
Draco sighed and ran a hand through his silver-blonde hair. "I don't know anymore, Ara. There was a time when I would have denied it until I died but now... I don't know."
She tilted her head to the side. "Malfoys and Weasleys can't mix. Or they don't." the silver streaks in her brown hair glinted strangely in the dim hall. "Full moon tonight, Draco. I gotta go."
"Bye." he watched as his small cousin disappeared around the corner.
**********************************************************************************
"Harry!" Ron raced into the Gryffindor common room screaming his best friend's name. "Harry!"
"Be careful, Weasley. People will think you're his girlfriend." Dameon stepped from the shadows in the boys' dorm.
"Do you know where Harry is?" Ron asked frantically. "I've got to tell him something."
"He's down in the common room." Dameon looked at him strangely. "He's making out with your sister. You must have missed it."
Ron turned and ran down the stairs. He pulled Harry off his sister, who looked happy for the interruption, and told her to go away. "Harry."
"Sorry." The other boy mumbled. "Forgot."
"Forget that." Ron waved the matter away. "Ara's a werewolf."
"What?"
"A werewolf."
"You're joking." Harry said staring at his best friend. "She can't be."
"Who can't be what?" Hermoine asked entering the common room.
"Draco's cousin is a werewolf." Ron said his eyes wide.
"Not possible." The girl said authoritatively. "I know because Professor Lupin doesn't seem affected by her."
"What does that have to do with anything?" Ron asked bewildered.
She sighed. "Werewolves always know when another werewolf is around. They can sense it. And because of that, they get very edgy, quiet, or very violent."
"Professor Lupin hasn't been acting all that well though." Harry pointed out, green eyes dubious.
"Tonight's the full moon, you half-wit."
"Oh. Right."
"Hey, Blade."
Dameon spun around, fully expecting to see Draco Malfoy behind him. Instead he say a very tall blonde standing there. "Deacon?"
"That's right." He motioned behind him. "I think you remember Halo, Vegas, and Wayne."
Three figures detached themselves from the shadows. Halo a girl nearly as tall as Deacon, with black hair and eyes, Vegas, taller than Deacon, with turquoise dreadlocks and gray eyes, and Wayne, even taller than Vegas with pink tipped hair and green eyes. They were the Elemental. Each represented a certain element. And specialized in all the relating element magic. Deacon, Earth. Vegas, Fire. Halo, Fire. Wayne, Air. Dameon, Air. And Moonie who was the shortest at 5'3", was Ice.
"So where is Moonie?" Halo asked, flipping her hair.
"Yeah, where's our Icicle?" Vegas demanded.
"*Ara* is probably roaming the grounds." Dameon snapped. "It is a full moon."
"We knew that." Vegas retorted. "So where's her cousin?"
"Slytherin common room."
"You two been playing your parts?" Deacon asked suspiciously.
"To the T, Deacon." Dameon assured him. "Malfoy has no idea."
"Let's keep it that way." Deacon glanced out the nearby window at the setting sun. "There isn't much time left. Who's the werewolf?"
"Lupin."
"Let's take care of him before Malfoy."
"Yeah it's probably for the best." Wayne spoke for the first time. "I mean we can't have anyone knowing what's going on."
"When we get through with this school no one is gonna know what happened." Vegas laughed.
"Let's just hope Ara's in place." Deacon replied.
"She will be." Halo said forcefully. "We all know she'd never fail something as important as this. If we succeed everything will change."
"Don't we know it." Wayne grinned.
"All the way?" Deacon asked.
"All the way." Everyone agreed.
"All right. Let's scatter."
Ginny ran as fast as her legs could carry her in the opposite direction. She had to tell Harry and Ron. There was no time to waste.
