Chapter 11
Seating herself comfortably on the purple tasseled cushions, the stout witch leaned forward intently, settling her hand on her chin. She knew she looked regal. Dignified enough to shame a queen. She did not let it show, but she was exhausted.
"Sit." She ordered curtly, gesturing towards the chairs with a dismissive wave of her hand. "I'm not going to bite you."
"Wouldn't put it past her." Draco muttered as he took his seat. The witch smiled, watching as Luna suppressed a grin. Oh yes, they made a VERY good couple. She had made the right decision picking those two.
"Who are you?"
"I suppose you have many questions, Mr. Malfoy. However your first question, however important, is the most irrelevant." The witch peered sternly at him. "I am the sister a former Divination teacher, though we shall not speak her name here, for various reasons, the most prominent of these being that if we are being watched I do not wish to involve her in this. My name is Braele, and I shall not give my surname for the sole reason that I do not want any of my family involved. Your second question is probably why you are here, yes? Good. Although that is a better question, you jump ahead of yourself when you should be taking this slowly. Where is here? That, although another good question, is quite irrelevant. To tell you the whole story would take far too long, and as a result we cannot afford to tell every detail. The main points, however, we shall attempt to cover in a short while. The night the castle shook. That would be an ideal place to begin. The castle shook because I wanted you two to be within ten meters of each other. A tad extravagant, I know, but I have always been known for my drama. I could have dumped just you two into the Great Hall, but then suspicions would have been aroused. You were both hit by lightning, and the whole school was blinded so that no one would recognize what was happening. I was using a tremendous amount of magic, and I strongly doubt that a weaker witch or wizard could have even lifted the castle, let alone do what I did. The confusion was perfect. I was able to form something that has not been formed in a long time, la conexión del cerebro, quite literally, a connection of the brain. Your heart, mind, and spirits are linked by a powerful spell. If you focus hard enough, you can actually see the golden thread, which I shall teach you to do in due time." Settling back, the witch steepled her fingers and surveyed them. She looked quite pleased with herself. "As for your other questions, where is here and what happened tonight, I only have one answer. 'Here' is the room in the building that I have rented to use, temporarily at least, for a study. It is a sanctuary. If you should ever need help, I shall be willing to give it. As for what happened tonight, I have not the answer. The teachers think that the dead girl was a Muggle, but they are quite mistaken. The la conexión del cerebro ceremony was only preformed once before, and that dead girl was Lord Voldermort's link-partner. Now I have a question for you. Who killed her and how?"
----------
Draco looked at Luna. Her mouth was hanging open. He shut his with a snap. The witch still peered at them intently.
Draco wet his lips nervously. He didn't like to mention it. "He...he..he was.evil...he had a strange sort of silver knife that he made..some spell...and there was another man..hooded..and another man....also hooded, and he was holding...the girl...she tried to run.....she screamed for mercy....she begged...she pleaded....the man with the knife brought it really close to her...and he made a sort of ....I don't know how to describe it..he didn't stab her.....he didn't even touch her......a cutting motion.....and she slumped down to the ground....down to the ground.....she was dead.....the other hooded man..he...he....saw..me and he stunned me.....next thing I know.......I'm in pain....the man called it..snooping....he left the man with the knife to kill me.....and the others left on broomsticks..." Draco's voice trailed off. He felt sympathy flowing through the link with Luna. Angrily, he brushed it off. That was the last thing he needed.
Braele pursed her lips thoughtfully. "There is one thing about the link that I think you should know. It can be severed. But at great cost. The link is split evenly in half. If you cut it evenly on that split, and both sides will be weakened. Cut it more towards one and that one will be weaker, while the other is stronger. The more thread they have, the stronger they are. If it is too close to one, he or she will have no strength and will die, that is why the girl was dead."
----------
Draco's jaw dropped. His mouth worked soundlessly. Luna shut her mouth with a snap. "So basically you're saying that unless one of us wants to die, we're stuck?" She asked dryly, opening it again.
Braele nodded. "It's really late, and you two need some sleep. Come back tomorrow, and I will give you some lessons on how to handle the link. If you do not want to climb the stairs, then go to the painting of the black knight riding the silver horse with a red bridle, and say "Braele". It will lead you strait to this room. I will answer any questions tomorrow. Goodnight."
I have made a decision! I'm going to do a Mazrim/Moiraine pairing. I was going to do a Lanfear/Mazrim, but Lanfear gets reincarnated as a man (I just remembered...oops..), and I don't want to write slash...Thanks to The Dark Wanderer for your suggestions! Luv you all! Steph
