Chapter 16
Susan Potter stood there speechless, she'd just watched Draco kill his own father...it didn't seem to faze Draco. It didn't faze Draco that he was now an orphan and that all he had now was Susan. What had burned Draco so badly to kill his own father? Yes, she did hear the conversation that he both married Autumn, and let herself, Susan live. Or not marry Autumn and watch Susan die. Why did Lucius out of no where want Draco to marry Autumn, what had gone on?
Anthony stood there shocked, Draco Malfoy had killed another wizard, his father, and so did Anthony ignore it or send Draco to Azkaban? Really if a Wizard or Witch killed another Wizard or Witch they were suppose to go to Azkaban, but now Anthony was looking at that Draco saved another's life by killing his father...so would it be called self defenses...or....cold blooded murder?
"Grandfather," Susan spoke up, it was barely a whisper. "What's going to happen? To Draco...to me...to anybody?"
Anthony stood there in front of his granddaughter completely speechless...he really didn't know. "Both of you follow me to Dumbledore's office, now." They both nodded and followed Anthony in the Floo Powder.

"Arabella, I was afraid this would happen. Especially you being an Evans and getting ready to marry Sirius Black, the Minister of Magic. Snape told me today, and this isn't the first time, that there is suppose be a Death Eater attack at your own wedding."
Arabella felt tears about to stream down her face; she started to rub her stomach where her precious little girl lay. "Another attack? I hate this!" She began to scream, "WHY CAN'T THEY LEAVE US ALONE?! WHY CAN'T THEY JUST LEAVE US THE HELL ALONE?" She began to sob very hard.
"Babe, it's going to be okay. But, you can't get so angry about this, you'll hurt yourself and the baby."
"Sirius is right, you know, we don't want little Black to hurt any. I have a suggestion, but Arabella I don't know if you're going to like it."
"Well, what is it Albus?"
Before Albus Dumbledore could give his suggestion one by one, three people Flooed into his Office.
"Anthony! I see you got Miss Potter. Mr. Malfoy? Aren't you suppose to already be at the Safe House?"
"Sorry, Professor. Something came up that I couldn't miss."
"Hmmm. That would be?"
"My father made me go to Voldemort's house. Voldemort's spawn of a daughter is pregnant. They didn't know who the father was."
"Okay," Dumbledore said a little confused. "So what does that have to do with you?"
"Susan and I had a spat a few months ago and I got trashed at Autumn's sixteenth birthday party, father made me attend. I spelt with her, that one time. But, that one time made me get her pregnant. The heir of Slytherin is bringing another one into this world, because of me. Father and Voldemort decided they would make Autumn and I get married. I don't want to be married to that trash so I bad mouthed them all. Father had Susan," he looked over at her; she had hardly said a word. He was afraid of what she thought of him, "He had kidnapped her, he put his wand to her head and told me to marry Autumn and save Susan. Or not marry Autumn and he'd kill Susan in the Malfoy Manor. Since I will not marry Autumn, and I want to be with Susan, I killed my father. Anthony walked in seconds after I did it. I understand if you have to send me to Azkaban, Professor." He looked at Sirius, "Or Minister. But, if you have to...do it."
"Well, Draco. Since you were saving another life in return for your fathers, and you are a member of The Order, you will not have anything against you. As you are a member, you got rid of a Death Eater that is your job. Aren't I right?" Draco nodded yes. "Susan are you okay?" Sirius asked his usually talkative soon-to-be-niece.
Susan broke down in tears, "I have to go. I have to go home." She Flooed home before anyone could argue.
***
Sadie Susanna Potter looked in the mirror of her bedroom. Her face was splotchy from her crying, and from her clawing at her face. Her clothes hung on her, and she hated herself. They had had a fight a few months ago, and she knew something happened between Draco and Autumn, and had realized he probably did sleep with her...but now she was pregnant. Draco had gotten her arch enemy pregnant, now another Slytherin was going to enter the world! If Draco hadn't cared for her so much, he wouldn't have killed his father, and he'd probably be getting married to Autumn. It was her fault he'd killed his father....it was her fault. Susan threw herself down on her bed and put her head in her pillow.

Mirror, mirror lie to me;
Show me what I wanna see;
Mirror, mirror lie to me.
Why don't I like the girl I see?
The one who's standing right in front of me.
Why don't I think before I speak?
I should have listened to that voice inside me.
I must be stupid, must be crazy, must be out of my mind;
To say the kind of things I said last night.
Mirror, mirror hanging on the wall;
You don't have to tell me who's the biggest fool of all.
Mirror, mirror I wish you could lie to me;
And bring my baby back, bring my baby back to me.
Mirror, mirror lie to me;
Show me what I wanna see.
Mirror, mirror lie to me;
Show me what I wanna see.

Adora had been bouncing little David on her knee, he'd finally stopped crying and was now gurgling and giggling happily. Adora could of sworn she'd heard someone Floo in one of the fireplaces down the hall, but which niece or nephew was it? Had Arabella come back yet?
Adora turned David to face her, he smiled at her while he was chewing the sleeve to his shirt. "I swear, you keep doing that and all of your shirts are going to have a sleeve color that doesn't match the rest of your outfit. I think someone's here, do you want to go and see who it is?!" Adora watched as little David looked at her curiously, not knowing what she was saying. But, he giggled and gurgled and Adora took that as a yes. Adora picked up the bouncing baby boy and put him on her hip, as they began to go down the hallway to find who had come back.
But, as they got closer and closer to the room where someone occupied it, Adora was beginning to think she should go back and leave this person alone. They were very distraught, she could hear, which ever girl it was, crying her eyes out...but who could it be?
***
Why did I let you walk away?
When all I had to do was say I'm sorry.
I let my pride get in the way;
And in the heat of the moment I was to blame.
I must be stupid, must be crazy, must be out of my mind;
Now in the cold light of the day I realize.
Mirror, mirror hanging on the wall;
You don't have to tell me who's the biggest fool of all.
Mirror, mirror I wish you could lie to me;
And bring my baby back, bring my baby back to me.

Mrs. Weasley had taken liberty into making Ginny's hospital room a little more comfy. There was pink everywhere, and even though Ginny couldn't remember much of anything, she didn't remember ever liking pink, and if she did...she had to get rid of it. There was no way Ginny had picked pink clothes, her sink color would look horrid compared to it. Every time a family member came she'd pretend that she was asleep, she wasn't ready to put up with anyone, yet. In fact the only time she'd let herself be awake was when Bridget or Colin were around. Ginny couldn't sleep anymore, and no one was in her hospital room to bother her, so she picked up the "book" that was actually her diary and began a new entry.
Dearest Diary,
I hate hospitals with a passion. Yes, I am still in this dreaded place. Bridget and Colin haven't been around for some time, my mum keeps dropping by. That...Harry boy, I think it is, hasn't been around much either. From when I don't act to be asleep, my mum says that he's on his way to becoming an Order Member, whatever that is. All I know is I can't leave this doomed place until he is done, which I think is horrid! Why do I have to wait on a complete stranger, I don't know this fellow. Everyone keeps pushing us together, like we have some kind of past, and everyone is saying we did. I can't help it, I can't remember. Well, scratch on the roommate. Dumbleydore, told the nurse that I was not to have anyone else in here. Damned that old man, what does he know?!
I've been having these really weird dreams, some I wake up and can go right back to sleep. Others I'm to afraid to go back to sleep. I haven't had another thing that happened when Harry was here, but I keep seeing it in my dreams every night. I think it's just this stupid medication they have me on. It's been really quiet today. Oh, darn. I spoke too soon. Here comes those stupid twins again, they always mess with me and they bother me!
Later, Ginny

Harry and Ernie were training harder than they had ever before, they had found out who the person from Ravenclaw would be. It was Padma Patil, she was also in their year. Harry had really never known anything about her, except that she was Parvarti's sister, and of when she went to the Yule Ball with Ron in fourth year. Harry had always known she was one of the top girls in their year, but she wasn't better than Adora, no one was. Padma might not have been the best in school book wise, but from what Harry had seen of her she had to be the best girl in dueling. She had given Harry a run for his money, but their Captain had stopped them. Their Captain had been some guy that Harry had noticed at the Meeting of the Order that he had gone to, but he never really put much attention into him. This man was tall, built, and had a rugged look to him. His name was Brendan Lee, and he had been working the three of the students hard.
Finally they were given a break and the three Hogwarts students were drinking as much water as they could, before he started to drill them again. Brendan began to speak, "If any of you are wondering, where your Slytherin Order member is, he shall be here soon. There are things going on right now, that are out of my hands that Albus has to deal with. Albus had contacted me and told me the circumstances. The Slytherin Order member has killed a Death Eater today, and there is some suspicion going on right now."
"Hey!" Ernie sounded outraged. "You mean to tell me we've been busting our bums, and this Slytherin got to kill a bloody Death Eater! Why weren't we given the chance?!"
"Yeah!" Padma sounded outraged too. "Why does he get privileges that we don't?!"
Brendan spoke again, "He wasn't suppose to kill a Death Eater, none of you are suppose to come in contact with any, yet. But, our Slytherin had killed a Death Eater in order to save the life of someone else."
Padma gasped in, "So he's a hero? But, what Slytherin would save someone else's life? All Slytherin's do is think about themselves."
"I don't know why Dumbledore is even letting a Slytherin join us," Ernie said.
Harry was just sitting here in awe, there was someone else to join their ranks. He'd killed a Death Eater, in order to save the life of another...but who could this be?
"Well, are you going to tell us?" Padma said starting to get outraged. "We have a right to know who he is, as he is suppose to be here training with us."
"Well, I guess your right." Brendan said. "Draco Malfoy saved..."
Ernie began to laugh and Padma joined him, but Harry sat back amazed Malfoy had actually saved someone...but who? "You expect us to believe that Malfoy valued someone else's life over his own?" Ernie said in between laughs.
"SILENCE!" Brendan roared and they all had become quiet again. "Now, like I was saying. Draco Malfoy saved Sadie Potter's life."
"Susan?!" Harry finally spoke. "What the hell does Susan have to do with any of this? I told her to stay away from him, that she'd get herself only in trouble, and now your telling me she did?!" Harry was outraged.
"Now, now, Potter. I'm not explaining anything to any of you, that will be Malfoy's job when he gets here."
'Yeah, and it'll be my job to kill him for getting my sister in the line of death.' Harry thought to himself.
***
If only wishes could be dreams.
And know my dreams could come true;
There would be two us standing here in front of you.
If you could show me that someone that I used to be;
Bring back my baby, my baby to me.
Mirror, mirror hanging on the wall;
You don't have to tell me who's the biggest fool of all.
Mirror, mirror I wish you could lie to me;
And bring my baby back, bring my baby back to me.

Susan laid on her now crumbled bed, she couldn't believe how much trouble she'd been in and started. She should have listened to Harry when he told her that Draco was trouble, that if she didn't stay away from Draco she'd see the last of her days. The last of her days she'd almost seen. Draco had killed his own father...for her? What did he expect out of her? Did he expect her to sleep with him now, just because he'd saved her life? No way in hell. Draco had killed someone, killed his own father, his own flesh and blood and it didn't even seem to faze him. What kind of monster had she been around? What kind of monster had she been dating? This horrible killing monster had not only murdered his father in front of her, for her life. He'd also gotten Autumn Lewis pregnant. Now there were not only two heirs of Slytherin...there would be three. Susan had always feared for her life, ever since she'd found out the truth. Since she'd found out she was a Potter, that she had a twin brother Harry. After she'd come to realize and everyone knew she was a Potter. There'd been a Death Eater attack, just hours after she'd left the Bones' home. It had killed them all. Mr. and Mrs. Bones, and her little brother Jess. All because of her, because she was alive and not dead. That was now four people dead because of her. How could she ever face Draco again? She didn't think she could, she didn't think she could face him. Or Harry? Oh, god what was Harry going to think. He'd be furious with her as soon as he found out. He'd told her as soon as he'd found out about the two that she had to leave Draco alone, that she must or she'd regret it in the end...and what was going on now? Harry had been right, now what was she to do?
***
Draco stood in an awe, Susan had left. He'd just saved her life, and she left. What was he to do now?
"Mr. Malfoy," Draco shivered at that name he hated, but he turned his attention at Dumbledore. "You will stay at the Safe House tonight, like we'd planned. Arabella will talk to Miss Potter and see if she is alright. You may go on to the Safe House and not talk to anyone yet. It is getting late tell Brendan I said that all four of you are to go to sleep, you all have to be up early in the morning." Draco nodded and Flooed to the destination he'd been trying to get to all day.
Dumbledore continued on, "Anthony, Sirius. I know you must talk to the Ministry about what is to happen to young Mr. Malfoy. I am awaiting your answer." Dumbledore paused and made the next part sound a little happier. "As for Arabella and Sirius's wedding, I advise the two of you to Elope. That way we will know for certain that there will be no Death Eater attack. That way all the children, Arabella, and the new baby will all be safe. Plus the guests you had planned to invite. My advice is going to the states to Elope, there's a nice Muggle town called Las Vegas, that you might want to try. There is also a Wizarding Part of the town, so the two of you can get there with out bringing suspision. You two can go alone, or you can bring your family. Sirius and Anthony I know the two of you need to get a hold of the rest of the Ministry Officials, so go ahead, but get in touch with me tomorrow. Arabella and Sirius I know the two of you have some new Wedding things to talk about, when you know, I am here to hear. Arabella, I suggest you get back to the Evans home, and check on Susan. See if Adora is doing alright with David, it is about his bed time, right?" Arabella nodded. "We will have a funeral service for Miss Chang's body. I will inform you of the date, I know you'll want to bring little David to his mother's funeral. I am going to check on Miss Weasley's condition, and then see how my recruits are doing in the safe house with Brendan. Good day, you all.
***
Once Arabella got home she put her ear to Susan's door and indeed could hear the girl crying. She went inside and closed the door. Susan looked up to see who it was, and Arabella sat beside Susan. Susan turned to Bella, and Bella made Susan put her head on Bella's shoulder and Susan began to cry again. Bella knew this wasn't the time to talk, but just for Susan to cry it all away. "I was s-s-so st-stupid. I-I should of l- listened t-t-t-to Harry." Susan sobbed.
"Shhh." Arabella soothed her, "It's going to be alright, I promise It'll be alright."

"Arabella, I was afraid this would happen. Especially you being an Evans and getting ready to marry Sirius Black, the Minister of Magic. Snape told me today, and this isn't the first time, that there is suppose be a Death Eater attack at your own wedding."
Arabella felt tears about to stream down her face; she started to rub her stomach where her precious little girl lay. "Another attack? I hate this!" She began to scream, "WHY CAN'T THEY LEAVE US ALONE?! WHY CAN'T THEY JUST LEAVE US THE HELL ALONE?" She began to sob very hard.
"Babe, it's going to be okay. But, you can't get so angry about this, you'll hurt yourself and the baby."
"Sirius is right, you know, we don't want little Black to hurt any. I have a suggestion, but Arabella I don't know if you're going to like it."
"Well, what is it Albus?"
Before Albus Dumbledore could give his suggestion one by one, three people Flooed into his Office.

He'd told her as soon as he'd found out about the two that she had to leave Draco alone, that she must or she'd regret it in the end...and what was going on now? Harry had been right, now what was she to do?

Draco stood in an awe, Susan had left. He'd just saved her life, and she left. What was he to do now?
"Mr. Malfoy," Draco shivered at that name he hated, but he turned his attention at Dumbledore. "You will stay at the Safe House tonight, like we'd planned. Arabella will talk to Miss Potter and see if she is alright. You may go on to the Safe House and not talk to anyone yet. It is getting late tell Brendan I said that all four of you are to go to sleep, you all have to be up early in the morning." Draco nodded and Flooed to the destination he'd been trying to get to all day.
Dumbledore continued on, "Anthony, Sirius. I know you must talk to the Ministry about what is to happen to young Mr. Malfoy. I am awaiting your answer." Dumbledore paused and made the next part sound a little happier. "As for Arabella and Sirius's wedding, I advise the two of you to Elope. That way we will know for certain that there will be no Death Eater attack. That way all the children, Arabella, and the new baby will all be safe. Plus the guests you had planned to invite. My advice is going to the states to Elope, there's a nice Muggle town called Las Vegas, that you might want to try. There is also a Wizarding Part of the town, so the two of you can get there with out bringing suspision. You two can go alone, or you can bring your family. Sirius and Anthony I know the two of you need to get a hold of the rest of the Ministry Officials, so go ahead, but get in touch with me tomorrow. Arabella and Sirius I know the two of you have some new Wedding things to talk about, when you know, I am here to hear. Arabella, I suggest you get back to the Evans home, and check on Susan. See if Adora is doing alright with David, it is about his bed time, right?" Arabella nodded. "We will have a funeral service for Miss Chang's body. I will inform you of the date, I know you'll want to bring little David to his mother's funeral. I am going to check on Miss Weasley's condition, and then see how my recruits are doing in the safe house with Brendan. Good day, you all.

Once Arabella got home she put her ear to Susan's door and indeed could hear the girl crying. She went inside and closed the door. Susan looked up to see who it was, and Arabella sat beside Susan. Susan turned to Bella, and Bella made Susan put her head on Bella's shoulder and Susan began to cry again. Bella knew this wasn't the time to talk, but just for Susan to cry it all away. "I was s-s-so st-stupid. I-I should of l- listened t-t-t-to Harry." Susan sobbed.
"Shhh." Arabella soothed her, "It's going to be alright, I promise It'll be alright."

Mirror, mirror hanging on the wall;
You don't have to tell me who's the biggest fool of all.
Mirror, mirror I wish you could lie to me;
And bring my baby back, bring my baby back to me.
Mirror, mirror lie to me;
Show me what I wanna see.
Mirror, mirror lie to me;
Mirror, mirror lie to me.
Show me what I wanna see;
Mirror, mirror lie to me.
