Chapter 5
Harry looked at his watch... it was 12:30. He grabbed onto Darius' arm and closed his eyes, concentrating on Number Twelve. When he opened them again he saw the astonished faces of Mrs Weasley, Ron, Hermione, Draco Malfoy, and Professors Dumbledore and Snape.
"Erm, hi guys," he said to Ron and Hermione, "and everyone else. I think you should all sit down 'cause we need to talk."
He smelt a powerful waft of vanilla. It was an ecstatic scent. He couldn't get enough of it. He could feel his pupils slightly dilate at the scent.
Ron got over his shock first and exclaimed, "Bloody hell! You shouldn't be doing that. The ministry can track people who apparate. Especially underage wizards!"
"I know. That's what I need to talk to you about. The ministry can't track my magic anymore. Neither can anyone else."
"But that's impossible... the only way that they can't track someone's magic is if that person cast a dark spell on their wand," here Hermione glanced at Draco. "Which they can sense if you're underage... or if you're dead!"
"Yeah... there is another way. I think you should all sit down." He looked around the room taking in everything... when he noticed someone who shouldn't be there.
"Malfoy? What are you doing here?"
"I was just going to explain that when you turned up," he sneered.
Darius looked at the boy for a few seconds. "He's been spying on his father and Voldemort for a year and people are getting suspicious of him because he doesn't practice the Unforgivables ... they don't pack enough punch for a Malfoy, at least that's what his father thinks...and he doesn't want to hurt people."
Malfoy looked at the stranger incredulously. "How the fuck did you know all that?"
"Legilimens," He shrugged. "We are very talented with Legilimens and we don't need a spell like most wizards. It comes as easily as flying," he said to Harry, who was watching him.
"And what exactly are you, if not a normal wizard?"
"That's why I'm here to talk to you. Are you going to sit down?"
Everyone grabbed a seat... Harry could practically see the worry on all their faces... something unreadable even flittered across Malfoy's eyes. "Right. Well. Erm this is Darius and erm, well... this is hard to say."
"Just tell us Harry. We're here for you no matter what it is," Said Mrs Weasley in her mothering tone.
"Well. OK. Well, you see the other night...erm..." he looked to Darius for help on what to say.
"Harry is vampire. See it wasn't that hard to say now was it?" Harry looked at him in thanks.
Mrs Weasley fainted, Ron and Hermione went pale and Draco went paler while Snape looked very scared. But Dumbledore looked the same as he always did... and either Harry was imagining things or Dumbledore looked excited as he went over to enervate Mrs Weasley.
"You're kidding...right? This is a big joke?" asked Ron.
"No Ron, Darius turned me last night."
"But...but if you're a vampire does that mean that you can't go back to Hogwarts?" asked Hermione who always thought of school first.
"I don't know... that's why I came here. To see Dumbledore."
"I don't see any problems about Harry coming back to Hogwarts."
"HE'S A DAMNED VAMPIRE!" Snape exploded, "And you say you can't see a problem with him coming back to school?"
"Well Severus there are lots of things that people don't know about vampires. Isn't that correct Darius?"
"Yes, Sir. Not many people know the truth about vampires, like the Legilimency ... not to mention the cloak on magic and the wings."
"I DON'T CARE! ALL I WANT TO KNOW IS WHY IT IS OK TO SEND HIM BACK TO SCHOOL!" Severus just wouldn't drop the subject.
"Severus please keep your voice down before you wake everyone." Said Dumbledore.
"Too late." Remus muttered as he entered the kitchen. "Can someone get me a headache potion?"
Remus looked at everyone in the room, noting some shocked looks on their faces. Then he saw Harry and walked over to him pulling him into a huge hug.
"Oh my god, Harry Happy Birthday! What are you doing here?"
"I forgot it was my birthday... again." Said Harry as Remus let him go. "How are you Moony?"
"I'm fine... except with this damned headache... Snape are you gonna get me a potion for this?"
Snape harrumphed and went over to the cupboard where he had locked all of his potions and got a light magenta potion in a clear vial then passed it to Remus.
"This should clear it up. Now," he said, turning back to Dumbledore, "Are you going to tell us why you are allowing a VAMPIRE to remain at school."
"Darius you are the expert, so to speak, so would you mind enlightening Severus and the rest?"
"Who's a vampire?" asked Remus, looking worried.
"Me," muttered Harry. Remus looked like he'd had his worst fears confirmed. He pulled Harry into another bone crunching hug. "Remus it's OK. Just listen to Darius."
"Yes, well... a vampire does not act like most people believe they do. They only need blood on a full moon or when they're angry. They have exceptionally fast reflexes..." he was suddenly on the other side of the room. "and expansive wings. They are talented at Legilimency and have no need for Occlumency because no one can get into their minds no matter how hard they try,"
"Well at least I don't have to teach the boy that anymore." Snape said almost cheerfully.
"They get mates whom they are with till the day that they die...like veela," he said looking at Draco. "Their eyes glow red when they're angry and their fangs show. Light doesn't harm them and neither does garlic. A stake through the heart doesn't kill us but we can die by our mates and the killing curse... I think that's all of it."
"Thank you Darius... it's getting pretty late now so I think you should all be off to bed, and try not to wake anyone else up. Harry you're in the same room that you were in last year but this time you're sharing with Mr. Malfoy."
"WHAT!" Malfoy and Snape screamed at the same time... horror stricken.
"I am not allowing my godson to stay in a room on his own with a vampire!"
"Don't you realise that we fight all the time? He could get angry and kill me."
"Worried, Malfoy?" Harry smirked. "Don't be, I wont bite you...yet. But get on my nerves too much and I might not be able to control myself."
Harry laughed at the terrified expression the pale boy now had on his face. "I'm kidding. I don't want to bite anyone. You're all safe."
