Belle saw down the hill her two friends tied to a tree and what seemed to be five people dressed in black around them. She soon galloped down to right in front of her friends and in front of the people she now recognized as deatheaters. They all had their wand pointed at her and she immediatley changed back into the girl and saw one deatheater step forward. "This is Oakes estate and my name is Isael Oakes, I demand you leave my property now. These are not unicorns but mearly students" she then waved her wand and watched as Chris and Aly went back to normal. The deatheaters soon untied the ropes and went to walk away. The one who had stepped forward was still standing in front of her and he did not break contact with her eyes.
"Show yourself you coward" she said piercing him with her glare. She then saw the man remove his hood to reveil Draco Malfoy. Chris and Aly were now right beside Belle ready to fight to the death. She then lowered her gaze "Draco, What are you doing on my estate?" she asked. "Your father had given my father permission to take a unicorn as we are in need of one. When we saw these two we decided we would take a breeding pair" Aly and Chris then looked at each other in disgust. Belle couldnt help but laugh and even saw Draco crack a smile.
"Oh Draco, this is Chris and Aly. They are my best friends from America." Draco then nodded his hello and said "Well it is rather late and I'm aware that you'll be over at the manor tommorrow to pick up your mothers things, we shall talk again then." Belle then watched as he turned and walked away.
Aly was the first to speal "Damn, he's fine!" she said almost knocked off her feet. Belle laughed as they then walked home. When they arrived they all got ready for bed. Belle was glad to have some of her old clothes back and slipped into a pair of shorts and a tank top. Aly switch to a long black silky night gown and Chris got down to a pair of red boxers and they all laid down for some sleep.
"I cant wait for you two to meet Ron, your both going to love him" she said staring at her ceiling. Chris then answered in his husky voice "Why, I love the sweety already" Belle and Aly both laughed. "No honestly, you guys will really like him, I can tell." she said now staring at Chris who was laying chest down on his cot. She looked at the back of his neck "She saw in small on the back of his neck the name 'Milo' She rubbed her back and new exactly where her back read 'Pixel.' Aly had gotten the word 'Lia' written on her shoulder blade. These were the names that they called each unicorn. Chris was Milo, Aly was Lia, and she was Pixel. This was their code and with those tattoos they made it permanent.
They soon all fell asleep and only woke again in the morning. Belle was the first to rise and ran quickly to ger gressed. She found a pair of jeans and a silver hatler top. When she came back to her room she saw Aly getting ready. She grabbed a pair of black jeans and a dark red out of her bag. She then rushed into the bathroom after Belle as she started putting up her hair. Belle sat by her vanity and and stared at her reflection. She stared into her green eyes and wondered what secrets of hers could be told through them. 'Apparently all veelas are supposed to love everything about theirself and look down upon the world. A true veela doesnt look into a mirror and only see flaws, inperfections upon herself.' She then dropped her head and let go of her hair. She felt it brush down past her face finally halt in front of her eyes.
She then felt a hand on her shoulder and turned to see Chris. She looked up to him, he was smiling "Every veela is beautiful in their own way. I have my sense of humor, Aly has her looks and knowledge. I never knew yours until just now, your beauty isnt just your eyes, your beauty is to love and heal. You love people at no matter of the costs, you even took pity on poor old Chris" he said. She then stood up and gave him a hug "Chris, your going to make some lady very lucky some day" she said patting his back.
Just then Aly walked in and stared at them "Should I come back?" she asked standing in the doorway. Belle then laughed and fought back a tear "Of course not, now get over here" with that Aly ran over and they had a big group hug. "I really am going to miss you both, please dont forget me." she cried. "How could we forget you Belle, your our Pixel" Aly said .
Just then Mr. Oakes knocked on Belle's door. "Aly, Chris the carrige is here to take you to the airport" he said and left the room. Belle then tightened the grip on them both "No, dont leave me alone" she sobbed. "Belle, I have something for you" and she ran over to her bag. Chris took this oppurtunity and pulled her into a tight hug. "I'll never forget you, you were my first friend and you wont get through life without dealing with me" he laughed. Aly then came back holding onto three small black books. She handed one to Chris and Belle and explained that no matter what she wrote in this book it would show up in the other. This way they could talk just like always and never be apart.
They gave each other one last hug and Chris and Aly went into the carrige and back to America. She had to try out this book and ran back upstairs. When she saw the book lying on her desk she saw that it was glowing red. She opened it and found a note from Chris.
Pixel,
Just trying out the neat books and to say I love you, you really are my best friend.....even from accross the ocean. ~Milo~
Belle smiled and wrote back to him as soon as she could. Just as she was about to write her book glowed blue and she watched the words "Hi Belle" show up from Aly. So she quickly wrote to Chris:
Milo,
Lia has had these things bewitched so that whenever you leave me a message its red and hers is blue. What color is my message?
~Pixel~
She then waited and within a few minutes she saw a red glow come to the book and one word 'Emerald.' She smiled and wrote back to him:
Milo,
Sorry to say but I must leave for Malfoy manor and I doubt having a book flashing different colors would go well with Mrs. Malfoy. So I will be home in a few hours and I will send you a message.
~Pixel~
She then closed the book and saw it flash back in two different colors, both messages said only 'goodbye Pixel' She then grabbed her black jacket and took off down the stairs. She went towards the fireplace and tossed in her floo powder "Malfoy Manor" She then opened her eyes and saw a house elf standing in front of her "Hello, I'm here to see-" She said before being interuppted by Lucius. "Why Isabel, is that you? You look so beautiful, positivley angelic" he said. "Why thank you Mr. Malfoy" she said sweetly.
"Are you here to see Draco?" he asked. "Oh no, I was actually given this invite my your wife. She has a few of my mothers old things" she said handing the note to him. He read the note then turned to see Draco enter through the fireplace. "Ah Draco, please take Ms. Oakes up to your mother" he said and walked away. "Hello Draco, how was your walk home last night?" she asked. he replied, "Very cold, it is December you know" She laughed and then they climbed a fleet of stairs and into his mothers room. "Our mothers were friends, mostly because our fathers were so close. I remember your mother a good bit, she looked a lot like you, she wasnt as tall and didnt have your eyes." he said.
His mother then walked out with a few long dresses and shooed him out. He gave Belle's hand a kiss and she looked back to the beautiful gowns. She saw one dress that she fell in love with at first sight and asked to try it on. Belle tried on a long black silk dress that made her legs seem longer and then there was a short train that flared out behind her as she walked. When Narcissa returned she smiled at Belle "When I just came in I swore I just saw your mother" she said raising a hand to her face. She knew this was to hide a tear and tried to not smile. "Shall I wear this to your ball in two days?" she asked.
"How about you come over a little early and we can get ready together. Then I can personally walk down the staircase with you. Your mother would have wanted you to have a great night." she smiled. Belle nodded and agreed to entering the ball with Draco and Narcissa. "Draco usually walks down the main stairs with me, but this year he can walk us both down." she smiled and they started planning on how to do her hair.
When she left Narcissa's room she walked down into the garden. She remembered her first time healing a flower on the bench to her right and she also remembered running in that feild over there to get to water for seashells. She then saw the little shack in the distance, she sat down on the bench and remembered the night Draco and her spent in there. She remembered crying and holding on to him to save her from the storm. A tear creapt down her cheek and she felt a force turning her around sharply. She saw Draco in front of her and he saw the tear "You remember the storm dont you?" he asked. She then looked away from him and tried to concentrate on anything she could find. "You are aware that ignoring me wont make me go away right." he said.
"Yes Draco, I'm not thinck or anything, I just really dont like to think about it" she said and turned to leave. "You cant run forever Belle" he said grabbing her arm and pulling her back. "I'm not running, I just need to get home" she said and gave him a hug. Meanwhile Narcissa watched from upstairs in her room and plotted.
Belle saw down the hill her two friends tied to a tree and what seemed to be five people dressed in black around them. She soon galloped down to right in front of her friends and in front of the people she now recognized as deatheaters.
