Chapter 8. Lya's true identity?!!!!!!

It was yet again another potions lesson. Well, after another potions lesson. The students ran as fast as they could to the door hoping to escape from the dreadful dungeon soon. Hermione was stopped when her bag split open.

"Oh dear. Go on without me you guys."

"Need help?"

"Thanks Lya."

"Hermione."

"Yeah? What...........Malfoy." She said coldly.

"I'll just leave you too alone shall I?"

"Thanks Lya."

Lya left leaving the two alone. They glared at each other for a while. It was Draco who broke the silence.

"You shouldn't hang around with her."

"Who?"

"Lya."

"And why not? Why would you care who I hang around with?"

"You don't know who she is......."

Draco glanced nervously at the door then closed the dungeon door with a wave of his wand, placing a silence charm.

"Snape is still in here you know. He's in the office down there."

"I know, Granger. He already knows."

"Know what?"

"Hermione, All I can tell you for now is to stay the hell away from her. And make sure she stays away from Potter too."

"Why should I do that? Give me one good reason Draco."

"She's......Dangerous."

"Bullshit."

Draco growled and pinned her hands to the dungeon wall.

"Listen here, Granger. You don't know what her name is or even what she is. You don't know what she's capable of. So take my word and stay away from her."

"First, I do know her name. Her name is Lyvenia Ashley Rienef. Second, I know that she's a human and a witch. Why are you doing this, Malfoy? Scared I'll hurt your lover?"

"Wrong again, Hermione. You wanna know her real name? Her real identity? Her name is Lyvanne Riddle, a sethra, and a spy for the dark side. Wanna know more?"

"A sethra? What's that?"

"You're telling me you don't know? The great Hermione Granger doesn't know? I'm shocked!"

"That'll be enough, Mr. Malfoy."

They turned. It was Snape and Dumbledore.

"Professor!"

"Follow me. Both of you."

Dumbledore and Snape led them to the stone gargoyle ('Ice Mice') and to the headmaster's office. Dumbledore motioned them to sit.

"It's seems we have quite a problem here. Young Mister Malfoy and Professor Snape have been telling me the same thing. The same thing Draco told you Miss Granger."

Hermione took a deep breath.

"It is true that Lyvenia Ashley Rienef is actually Lyvanne Riddle. A young girl with a brilliant mind and a family of Voldemort."

They flinched at the name.

"However, she was believed to be dead when Cornelius Fudge demanded for her execution simply because of her last name."

"So she might have been involved with the Dark Arts?"

"As to that, we don't know. She was from Ravenclaw and her and Tom Riddle was as different as night and day. It was hard to believe that girl would even associate with the Dark Arts. However......Draco?"

"Professor Snape and I saw her. Saw her at the Death Eater meetings. The Dark Lord sent her to keep an eye on Potter and HER"

"HER?"

"We never knew who HER was."

"This means that there is a spy in the Gryffindor tower. It is no longer safe for Mr. Potter or any of the other Gryffindors."

"Professor Dumbledore?"

"Yes Hermione?"

"Draco tells me that she's a sethra. What is that?"

"A sethra is a creature born from a Vampire and a Veela."

"And she is."

"Are you sure about that Mr. Malfoy?"

"Dead sure. My father told me so. Said that the Dark Lord told him to make me keep an eye on her."

"It is a really complicated matter. Meanwhile, I must ask Mr. Malfoy and Miss Granger to not even breath a word about this conversation or Miss Rienef to the school. Not even to Harry, Hermione."

"Yes Headmaster."

"Just resume your school life normally until we have a plan. Until then....good luck. Oh, and Mr. Malfoy if I could have a word.."

When they were sure Hermione was out of the office and out of earsight, Dumbledore spoke.

"Draco. You haven't by a chance told Miss Granger........"

"No I haven't. Headmaster, don't we at least owe her the truth? That Hermione is in more danger than rest of us here? Who she really is?"

"The knowledge won't do her any good."

"What makes you so sure of that, Professor Snape? She has a right to know!!!"

"Calm down Mister Malfoy. She will. She will know. But now is not the time. So please refrain yourself from telling her or anyone the truth. No one outside must know. Is that clear?"

"Yes, Headmaster."

"Good. You may go."

Draco rose and left the office. He sighed deeply. It seemed that the Dark Lord was speeding up his plans..............
