Summary: Draco was certainly having a bad day. But when Blaise Zabini decides to get revenge in a very interesting way (Cough) Girl! (Cough), things may change for the better
In the halls of Hogwarts castle, all of the students made sure to stay clear of one particular one if he ever happened to be passing through the area. If they didn't…well, they'd bring on the wrath of a very agitated Slytherin. You'd have to be crazy if you did.
Draco stomped angrily away from his house, glaring at everything that moved enough to spike his attention. He felt angry at everything right now. He didn't care either. Everything deserved it. Everything was pissing him off today. With that logic, he continued on his pissy little way, scaring off a couple of meek little first years that happened to have caught his attention at that very second.
The days events played through his mind for a while, only serving to make him feel more livid. It had started this morning with the visit of some bloody owl waking him up at an unholy hour in the morning. Reading the letter the owl had brought with it hadn't been good news either. It had been a letter regarding his parents from the Ministry of Magic. It brought news that his parents were not going to be released from Azkaban any time soon.
It wasn't entirely the matter that he cared that his father was there. His father deserved to be locked up. It was more a matter of his mother having to be locked up too. She ended up there only for trying unorthodox methods to get his father out. That meant that more shame was to befall the Malfoy name because of his parents. The news also meant that he would not have anyone to go home to when school ended again. No one would provide for him. He had been dreading the fact that his family would soon be indebt and lose all the power and wealth they had had in years. Something he certainly didn't look forward to.
After he finished reading the letter, the bloody owl had decided that it really liked something else in particular. It forgotten it's obsession with the shiny knob on his desk and focused on yes, we've all guessed it by now, his pretty, shiny, platinum blonde HAIR. He and the bird had a heated battle, him defending his hair and it trying to snap at it. Unfortunately for him, his wand was nowhere to be found in his peril and the other boys of his house happened to be waking up because of the racket the owl was making to watch.
After one of the less idiotic Slytherin boys decided he'd rather sleep than watch the Malfoy keep his precious hair from the raving bird, Draco was rid of his owl problem finally but did not get back to sleep. He went to the bathroom to fix the damage the owl had caused to his hair, thoroughly annoyed. Draco made sure to swear revenge on the Ministry owl.
Breakfast had not been much better. The whole of the Slytherin table's occupants seemed to know about the "Owl Incident" and were all making fun of him one way or another. Being cranky and jumpy from lack of sleep didn't seem to help either.
Classes seemed to make him feel better for a while. Until transfiguration. While, Professor Mcgonagall had been teaching Draco had dozed off because he was so tired during her lecture. This hadn't escaped the ever-watching eyes of the catty professor, for she immediately woke him using the levitation spell to levitate water over his head and dropping it to wake him. Once again, someone had taken offense to his poor hair; aggravating the Slytherin even more since everyone had promptly began to laugh at his ailment. He was threatening to hex a couple of their mouths shut if they didn't shut up, but the professor threatened house points if he tried.
Later, after he used a good charm to dry himself off and fix his hair, he was in the common room alone doing nothing since classes were over. Around seven o'clock, most of the students around his age had come back from the Great Hall and were chatting loudly amongst themselves. The greatest annoyance to him at this point had been a certain Pansy Parkinson, who at the moment he couldn't stand because her annoying advances.
"How has my Drakey been?" she cooed softly while sitting next to him on the green couch. She let her hand rest on his thigh. Immediately, he pushed her hand off.
"None of your business." He snapped at her before scooting to the deserted corner of the couch farthest from her. Pansy moved towards him with a look of concern.
"Is something wrong Drakey?" Pansy asked sugarcoating her pet name for him with a bit of sweetness, putting one arm on his upper arm and the other on his shoulder.
"I said it wasn't any of your business Parkinson. Can you please leave me alone?" Draco uttered swatting at her arms. She didn't get the hint and only reacted by replacing her hands on his chest and looking him straight in the eye.
"Aww, is my Drakey having a bad day?"
For Draco, that was the last straw for the whole day. Angrily, he shoved Pansy as hard as he could to sending her tumbling off the couch and onto the floor. She began to cry causing enough attention to be sent his and her way from some of the other Slytherins in the common room. He decided he had enough of his housemates and left the room, not noticing a certain person glaring avidly at him because of his offense.
Now he was done with his little flash back on what had caused his day to be so hellish, and now all he could do, and had been doing for the last hour was stomp angrily down the halls of the school. He couldn't go to his common room because stupid Pansy would be there and he didn't feel like talking to her because she'd expect an apology he didn't plan on or want to give her. Neither could he go to the Great Hall because lately since it had been closed off around 7:30 Pm to students and it was past that time. He continued walking down the halls his head downcast.
His head was suddenly, for some reason pillowed by something soft (yet firm at the same time) and warm.
He had, in actuality walked into something, or rather someone's chest. Draco looked up briefly to meet the startled gaze of Harry Potter (he barely took notice of the Weasley and Granger behind him) in front of their common room. Immediately, Draco started to glare intensely at Potter for about a minute. Usually, Draco would feel compelled to say something snide about the Gryffindor or his friends after glaring, but decided he just didn't feel like dealing with that right at the moment. He quickly sidestepped around Potter and incoherently muttered and accidental apology while he stalked off moodily. He continued on for a while like that, cursing Potter a bit for just being there.
Suddenly, something connected with his head. Something blunt, and hard, and painful since pain began searing hotly from wear whatever it was had hit him. He tried to look around but he could only make out a form of a figure in the shadows with his blurry vision before the pain became unbearable. Draco fell to the floor unconscious.
The person who had struck him stepped out of the shadow revealing his identity. It was Blaise Zabini. The tall black boy paused to look around the halls of the school for any witnesses before grabbing the unconscious Malfoy and dragging him into the Boys' bathroom. He pulled out his wand and a vial of some odd pink colored liquid. He took the vial and poured it into the mouth of the other boy and gave it some time to let it seep completely into his mouth. Once that was done, he put his wand to Draco's heart and chanted the spell, "Mutare puella'" three times. Blaise's mouth curved upwards in a malevolent smile as he watched the transformation happen.
Draco's body began to get smaller. His face became a bit softer looking, less masculine looking, and more feminine than it already was. His already long hair grew a couple of inches until it just reached past his shoulders. The clothing he was wearing became baggy as his body shape got smaller; a thinner waist, delicate shoulders, his chest came out a couple of inches and his arms and legs lightened as well. At the end of the transformation, what was left was not really Draco Malfoy, at least not how most knew him like. Sitting there unconsciously propped against the wall of the bathroom was the body of a girl bearing some resemblance to Draco; platinum blonde hair and pale skin but that was it.
Blaise quickly cast the vanishing spell on the "girl" to make her invisible before casting "Winguardium Leviosa" to levitate her back to the Slytherin common. The whole time he spent levitating her there, thought about how great this revenge was. Malfoy deserved it after hurting Pansy like that, he thought triumphantly. He'd always fancied Pansy but would never admit it to anyone. It always annoyed him that Pansy seemed to fancy Malfoy but he didn't have to worry about that anymore. Now he no longer had any competition.
Once they reached the common room, Blaise said the password and stepped into the room, his wand still drawn and levitating the levitating Malfoy. He was relieved to see no one in the common room and made his way up the stairs. Silently, he opened the door to the girls found Pansy's room. Luckily for him, everyone including Pansy was asleep in the room was fast asleep. He slowly lowered Draco to the ground and propped her against Pansy's bed before removing the vanishing spell and leaving. Pansy surely wouldn't like Draco any longer after this.
Yes, he was sure she wouldn't.
The Next Morning
Pansy woke to the feeling of sunlight on her face. She blinked her eyes rapidly before sitting up and yawning loudly. Pushing some of the messier locks of her short dark hair out of her face, she looked around. At first, she didn't notice anything. Suddenly, she noticed a head of shiny bright hair near the left side of her bed. She looked over the side of her bed to take in one of the most pleasing sights she had ever witnessed in her life. It was her Draco, asleep on the floor next to her bed.
"Aww," she cooed reaching out a hand to smooth across his slivery hair. "He must've come to apologize last night but fell asleep." She giggled with glee at the thought. "So nice of you Drakey!"
She got up from her bed to change into her school robes watching Draco the whole time. When she was done, she felt hungry and wanted to go to the Great Hall to eat. Stopping quickly, she kneeled before the sleeping Draco, smoothing his hair while deciding not to wake him to go eat.
"I'll leave you here," she said to Draco. Standing up, she went to the door, "But I'll come back to wake you up if you are not awake when I return!"
The whole time, Pansy was unaware of the fact Draco was now a girl.
Prologue End
Tenni: God, that really sucked didn't it? Oh well. This story was a random inspiration that actually happed to become fanfic through some strange occurrence. Also, to explain some things so that most of you aren't confused. This takes place at the beginning of the 7th year of Hogwarts. Harry killed Voldemort in the sixth year, and Dumbledore is not dead. Whoo hoo, the old guy lives to suck another day.
Also, to those of you who are mad at me for putting Drakey's parents in Azkaban, I'm sorry, but it would screw the plot if they weren't. I also apologize to people who are offended that I made Pansy a stupid slut, but once again, it works better for the story. I also put out an apology to those who are against the idea of Blaise liking Pansy, but he was the only Slytherin who is intelligent enough in the story who could probably pull off the gender changing spell besides maybe Pansy. (Also, I made up the spell he used, so I ownzorz it. Back off.)
In this story, there will be NO DRACO AND PANSY PAIRING! This is because I utterly hate the pairing because it's too expected. And they don't look good together. I'm sorry if the title implied that because Draco's name means dragon while Pansy is…well, her name is a flower. I'm not going to announce the pairings because I want you to find out only by reading the story. So read the story! Please review if you want. Criticism and flames are welcomed. I should be posting the next chapter soon. See you then.
