Chapter Three: My Alien
Somewhere that no one can retrace, somewhere where nobody will know our faces.
It was early morning. The sun had just come through the window when Draco woke up. His hair was a mess. He ran his hand over it and rubbed his eyes, yawning. He didn't know how, but he had managed to fall asleep again last night. He figured it was because of all the things on his mind. He could just slip into Dream World when this one was too much. He shook his head, standing up. He went to the bathroom, slipping out of his clothes and getting into the shower. The water was cool and refreshing, yet warm enough to wake him up. He got dressed and ventured downstairs, peering around corners to see if anyone was awake as well as him. When he found that all was at peace, at least from what he could see, he went into the kitchen and started up a pot of coffee.
"Morning." a voice said from the small table by the window. The voice had scared Draco, and he almost jumped. Almost. He turned around to see who it was. Lupin. Draco sighed and waited for the coffee to get done. He hadn't seen Lupin when he had come in here the first time.
"What's with you being so sneaky? Plan on spying on somebody else's business?" Draco asked, hearing the bubbling and gurgling of the coffee pot.
"No.." Lupin said, fingers wrapped around the brim of his mug, "I was here the whole time. You just didn't see me." Draco shrugged, taking the pot off the stove and pouring the steaming hot liquid into a blue cup. He dropped two spoonfuls of sugar in the cup, mixed it, and then brought it to his mouth. Lupin looked at the table, seemingly pondering something quietly.
"Don't hurt yourself." Draco said. It seemed like he was anyway. But, Draco had to admit, he was pretty smart. He knew a lot about DADA, as learned from Draco's third year. Lupin just casually glanced at him.
"Why did you want to know so much about that forest?" Lupin asked. Draco lifted and lowered one shoulder.
"Dumbledore says I can go check it out." he said, taking a big drink of coffee and holding it in his mouth before swallowing it.
"Oh.." Lupin said, tapping his fingers on the table. He was becoming very fidgety and he twitched a lot.
"What the hell is your problem?" Draco said, smirking. It was funny to watch him. It was as if he couldn't stay still.
"It's just.. I..." Lupin sighed, "Nothing." Draco raised his eyebrow, suspicion lingering in him for a split second until he dropped it. They both finished their drinks in silence. Draco cleaned the blue mug with a charm and placed it back where he found it, leaving the room. He saw a boy walk down the stairs with unbelievable messy black hair.
"Hey dunderhead, why don't you get a broom for that head?" Draco said, opening the front door and walking out into the daylight. Obviously, the sun had grown brighter in the past few days. Draco shielded his eyes with one hand. As his eyes grew accustomed to the light, he looked around at the neighborhood. All of the houses were old, but none of them were in such bad shape as this. But, of course, they didn't even see the house. Plus, they were muggles, so who cares anyway? Draco set his view on the forest, and headed for it. He stepped onto the lone street and walked. It was hot outside, Draco had already started to feel the beginning of sweat on his forehead. Only two minutes outside. He could tell that this day was going to be scolding.
He reached the forest and gave it the one-two look over. One: Messy. Two: Impossible. Lupin and Dumbledore weren't kidding. It was impossible to get in. You'd die from blood loss before you even stepped three feet inside it. There were a bunch of spiky plants and vines.. Blocking off the whole entrance to the forest, from end to end. Impossible, for some maybe. But not for a Malfoy! He'd get in if it killed him (which was the popular bet). He placed his hands on his hips, evaluating his choices. He finally came to the conclusion that...
This was impossible. He sighed, rubbing the sides of his head with his index fingers. Maybe he could cut down some of the plants? But they looked too thick- Suddenly there was a crash next to him. He heard a rustling sound, like it were a bird. But this was bigger.. His hand shot down to his pocket. He had already had a bad experience with a Hippogriff so he wasn't taking chances. His eyes looked at whatever it was without him having to move his head. He saw a flurry of black and white, and then it stopped. It just stood there. He turned towards it, and gasped.
It was like a human, only different. It was a girl, from what he could tell. She had long black hair. She was wearing black too, a ragged dress that ended in the middle of her shins. Her skin was very pale. She had long, black fingernails. There were three things that made her different though... Her eyes were all black. No white, no color. Just black. Her ears were pointed. At least the left one was, hair was covering up the right one but he supposed that it was the same. And she had wings. Not like fairy wings, not glittery and that junk. But they were black, and leathery. Almost like a bat's wings. You could see the bones.
"Ye shan't s'posed to be here!" she said. Her voice sounded normal, but urgent.
"Who.. What are you?" Draco asked, forgetting about his wand.
"Go away!" she hissed. Draco stood there, watching here. He was stupefied. "Turn around and be shutting of the eyes!" she said. He didn't know why, but he followed her commands. It was like he was forced to do it. He heard more rustling and then it was quiet. He turned back around. But she was gone.
