Chapter 1
(15 years ago)
It was a cold damp day, a foggy mist hung over the ground under the gray early morning sky which hid the brilliance of the suns golden light adding a very depressing mood. Albus Dumbledore was looking out his office window into the foggy mist outside. His hands were clinging together behind his back as he sighed.
There was the sound of someone coming up to his office on the rotating staircase, Dumbledore didn't move an inch as he already knew who the visitor was, "Ah, Professor McGonagall, I trust you have some interesting news?"
Professor McGonagall who was the Transfiguration teacher at Hogwarts: School of Witch Craft and Wizadry approached the headmaster's desk with a sigh and said in a rather sad tone, "He is gone. Only the boy remains…"
Dumbledore bowed his head low in respect for the passing of two of his cherished friends and former students Lily and James Potter, "I don't know whether to rejoice or not, seeing as this has turned out to be both a happy and sad situation."
McGonagall's eyebrows came together in confusion, "I'm sure Albus you suspected this too be the outcome from the very beginning…minus the boy."
"Indeed Professor, I had suspected. That is why Hagrid shall get the boy and take him to a safe location, I will be meeting him later on tonight. I trust no one was near the house when you left?" Dumbledore asked, finally turning around to face the saddened Professor McGonagall.
"Not a soul was around Albus, the boy was asleep."
Dumbledore nodded, "I would like for you to go to this address," He began as he handed Professor McGonagall a small white piece of paper with black writing on it, "This is where I have told Hagrid to bring the boy."
Professor McGonagall glanced down at the address with a frown, "4 Privet Drive?"
"Yes."
"But why Albus?" Professor McGonagall asked with a confused face.
"That I shall answer once we are there with Hagrid. But before you leave, I have another question to ask," Professor McGonagall glanced up at Dumbledore curiously, "Do you know where Lucius Malfoy was at the time of the attack?"
McGonagall frowned as if the mere mention of the name 'Lucius Malfoy' was both irritating and insulting, "At the Malfoy Manor…with his wife and son and curiously enough his niece."
Dumbledores gray brows flung up in shock, "Niece did you say?"
She nodded, "Aye, that's what I said, 'niece'. Professor Snape informed me of this last night after his visit to their manor. Apparently Lucius's brother and his brother's wife were murdered for reasons Professor Snape refused to comment on," she sighed, "It would seem that it was truly something awful for even Lucius was having a hard time with it."
Dumbledore sat quietly in his throne like chair and laid back gently into it and glanced up at McGonagall through his half-moon spectacles, "So what is to become of his niece?"
Suddenly Professor Snape walked in with his thick black robes, black knee high boots and sleek greased back black hair, an image he would never change.
Dumbledore glanced at him, "Ah, Professor Snape, just the man I wish to speak to."
Snape nodded lightly at both Dumbledore and McGonagall.
"Professor McGonagall, would you please head over to the address I have assigned you and await the arrival of Hagrid and myself." Dumbledore said in a kindly manor.
"Of course." She said and with a swift turn she headed down the rotating staircase.
Professor Snape glanced back at Dumbledore with one eyebrow arching in question, "You had sent for me headmaster?"
Dumbledore nodded lightly, "Indeed I did Professor. Professor McGonagall told me a brief summary as to what is going on at the Malfoy Manor, but I believe I can get a much better scenario from you considering the circumstances of the situation."
"Of course, sir." Snape replied crisply.
"Please take a seat Severus." Dumbledore replied with a hand gesture towards a seat in front of his desk. Snape immediately responded and sat down with a sigh, "Now Severus, please explain."
Snape glanced his charcoal eyes at Dumbledore with slight reluctance, but he answered regardless, "Lucius has taken his 10 month old niece into his home since the murder of her parents. She's a very pretty child, and a very powerful one at that."
Dumledore raised a curious brow, "How so is she powerful?"
Snape was silent a moment and then he glanced back at Dumbledore once more, "She can already make things happen when she is angry and scared and sometimes when she's hungry apparently."
"Already? Usually signs of magic do not come till a child is at least two years of age." Dumbledore replied in amazement.
"I know. She is truly something special, such a shame she's a Malfoy. Who knows how they might exploit her in the future." Snape replied dryly.
Dumbledore nodded with a sigh, "Indeed that is so. I just wonder how she was blessed with such a magical talent at this early stage?"
Snape shook his head faintly, "Well Damien Malfoy was never more or less gifted than Lucius, but it's the girls mother that perhaps was the powerful witch. She supposedly descended from a powerful pure-blood family, from some other European country, I'm not quite sure which."
"What's the girls name?" Dumbledore asked.
"Lucia…Lucia Malfoy."
"The Malfoys certainly seem to be very original when it comes to naming their offspring." Dumbledore replied with a sarcastic grin.
"I expect to be seeing both her, Draco and Mr. Potter here in eleven years time of that I have no doubt what so ever." Snape replied calmly as he glanced down at the table seeming to be imagining what it will be like to have them finally be at Hogwarts as young wizards and witches in training.
"Of that I have no doubt Severus, I expect that we shall have a very interesting experience with those three along with the students who become close to them."
Sanpe raised a brow at Dumbledore's response, "I fear you may be right."
(15 years later)
Harry Potter was in fact a student at Hogwarts, he was now a sixteen year old boy, who had been through many trials and tribulations in which he always managed to come out of with the help of his two best friends at Hogwarts Ron Weasely and Hermione Granger. Together they solved mysteries, they helped defeat the Dark Lord (Voldemort), they helped Harry save his godfather (Sirius Black) from a horrible fate and many more. Yet along the way they have also had to deal with the nearly insufferable Slytherins who were another Hogwarts house and Gryffindors enemy. One Slytherin in particular that gave them excessive amounts of annoyance was Draco Malfoy a pale young man with blue-gray eyes, silvery-blonde hair and an aura of superiority that oozed out of him simply because he was pure-blood. For five years he had given Harry, Ron and Hermione insults, curses and many nights of detention. Though several times they were saved from trouble and having to put up with Draco's vile behavior thanks to a fellow sixth year Lucia Malfoy, who happened to be Draco's very own pure-blooded cousin. Not to say she didn't herself sometimes act as though they were inferior, but she was never like Draco in the least. Her only grudge towards the three of them was that they were in Gryffindor house which had done nothing but make Slytherin look like a pathetic house ever since their first year at Hogwarts. The five of them expected this year to be like any other, the two Slytherins (Lucia and Draco) permanent rivals of the three Gryffindors (Harry, Ron and Hermione). The five of them had four classes together which were Potions, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Transfiguration and Care of Magical Creatures. It has been this way for several years now, everything was always the same between the five of them…they all had their minds set that it would always be this way till they graduated in a little less than two years time. Ah, but they were wrong…so very, very wrong. Everything they thought would stay the same was about to change, everything they believed to be fact was about to be revealed as pure fiction and everything they ever thought their hearts could never see or feel was about to explode right into them. The cause of all this naturally has to be started by something, one little incident would have to set off a massive chain reaction to cause all the mayhem I have just stated, right? All the credit goes to two teens who definitely decided that rules were made to be broken and that love definitely can cause the impossible to be real.
