Chapter 2: What Are You Doing Here?
When her alarm clock went off the next morning, Ginevra Weasley secretly hoped that she would wake up in her bedroom at Redwall Castle in Dangerwood. She held on to that hope as she scrunched her eyes tighter and crossed her fingers so that maybe, just this once, her dream would come true. She waited just a little bit longer, hoping she would here her older sister Calina would walk in and tell her it was time to get up.
Five minutes passed and there was no Calina. Ten minutes, still no Calina. Finally, after twenty minutes, someone walked in.
"Ginevra," called her mother from the doorway. "Wake up. You said you would help me make breakfast."
Dang, Ginny sighed, I'm still in 12 Grimauld Place. She then got up from her bed and headed for the bathroom to take a shower. There were so many people in the house that the only time she could get a shower was now.
It was times like these that Ginny really wished her family had stayed in RogueWorld, but her father, who was always wanting to try new things, had thought it would be a wonderful idea. In fact, it was such a wonderful idea that he decided to make them poor to make the experience more fun. He said it was becauase he needed more inspiration for more of the projects his film company was working on.
Some people thought her father was genius, because he was so creative. Others thought he was so insane that somehow, whatever he did made sense. Ginevra agreed with the latter, although she still didn't understand the whole poverty part.
She pondered on all the things her father had done as she walked into the kitchen. She noticed her mother was watching t.v.
Wait a minute, she thought, we have a t.v.?
"When did we get a t.v.?" asked Ginevra as she and her mom began to make breakfast.
"Your father decided he was tired of being poor and his ministry job got in the way of his filming, so your father quit the ministry and we're rich again." her mother explained.
"What about the Order? Why are we still here?" Ginevra inquired.
"We're still with the Order and we're still staying here, it's just that we're rich now so we can upgrade this house or just tear it down and pull up the original, or at least the parts that ae still underground."
"Oh," siad Ginevra.
Down the hall, a baby started to cry.
"There's a baby in here?" asked Ginevra.
"Not that I know of," said Molly.
Down the hall, behind the portrait of Mrs. Black, Alexio Malfoy had woken up in his true form, and he was hungry.
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!" He cried, waving his fisted arms about in frustration. Why hasn't anyone woken up yet?
"Okay, okay" said Draco. "Just calm down and we'll go make you something to eat, okay?"
Alexio calmed down as his eldest brother got off of the floor he was sleeping on to pick him up from the bed were the babies slept surrounded by pillows. As they made their way out of the room, Draco was still tired and a bit grumpy that he had been woken up so early.
On their way to the garage to get the baby food, they passed the kitchen. Ginevra's head shot up from the pancakes she was making as the boxer-clad Draco walked through the kitchen with a baby in his arms. The two boys were both oblivious to the kitchen's other occupants.
Draco had managed to grab a bag full of baby food before making his way back to the kitchen. Only when he had dropped the food on the counter did he noticed the red-head in front of him.
"What are you doing here?"
Author's Note: I know it's short, but that's all this chapter really needs. The seventh chapter of "The Dark Prince" is on hold until I can either finish it in school or get it off the school computer. Hopefully I can get a couple of chapters in before the end of this month, I don't want to make this a habit.
Peace
