Denya looked longingly at the firebolt but decided instead on a Nimbus 2001.
Through either pride or fairness she wouldn't give herself any advantage over Draco,
she was determined to win, but she wouldn't do it on a better broom.
The only problem was the broom itself,
how could she pay for it without attracting her family's attention and after she purchased it where
would she hide it before school and how would she smuggle it there?
I'll think of something she promised herself as she left the shop.
She wandered for a few minutes thinking a plan began to form, smiling slightly she walked into the Leaky Cauldron.
Watching for a moment to make sure no one watching her she ducked into the kitchens and hid behind a stack of boxes.
She waited as servers bustled in and out to taking food and bringing back empty plates.
Finaly there was no one in sight she ran quickly to a small fireplace threw in a handfull of floo powder
from her pocket said Malfoy Mansion and jumped into the fire, and just in time she caught a glimpse of a puzzled
face looking at her before she began to spin.
Feeling as if she was going to puke as she always did after travel by floo powder she fell to the floor of her room.
That was lucky at least now she wouldn't have to dodge the new houself Muka.
Just as the though crossed her mind she heard soft footsteps outside her door looking franticly around for a place to hide
she crawled quickly under her bed praying Muka wasn't coming to clean.
She watched Muka's feet as she padded into the room Denya carefully pushed the blanket concealing her up
slightly Muka looked puzzled she'd probably heard the thump as she landed she thought.
Her guess seemed to be right Muka soon walked out the door shutting it quietly behind her.
Denya waited a few moments to make sure Muka was out of the way then breathing a sigh
of relief she rolled out from under her bed and crept to the door. Hoping the door wouldn't squeek as it sometimes did
she slowly pushed it open, shutting it quickly behind her she walked up several
flights of stairs to the attic. Listening carefully to make sure no one was around she pushed open the door of
a small closet pulled up a small false floor and hid it out of the way then pulled up a trap door
and pulling the closet door shut behind her she jumped down.
Once they'd used a secret chamber under the drawing room floor to hide her father's illegal dark arts things,
but somehow the ministry had discovered it so now her father instead hid things here.
Denya pulled out her wand and said 'lumos' softly pulled on the light cord and began to look around.
She'd need something worth a lot but small enough it wouldn't quickly be noticed. She bit her lip trying to
think of something like that, it would have been easier for Draco; he and father knew were the ones who gathered and hid the
items she was usualy left out of those kinds of things, she didn't mind much but it would have been easier if she'd
know what she was looking for. Picking her way through many gruesome objects she selected two items: a small bottle of
the green elexir of venna and black chain necklace with a key pendant that she did not recodnise.
Now the only thing left was the matter of her disguise, she doubted Mr. Borgin or anyone else would have the faintest
who she was but it was better not to take chances. She turned off the lights, and by the light of her wand climbed the rope
ladder and opened the trapdoor. Closing it behind her she peered through the crack underneath the closet door
and listened to make sure no one was near. Satisfied that the room was empty she opened the door and quickly replaced the
false floor.
Her parents had a lot of advanced magic books, most of them involved the dark arts
and were kept in the secret attic room but there were a few in their library; hopefully one of them would have something
about disguise. Cautiously weaving her way through their house she went to the library.
Glancing at the clock she realized she'd already used an hour and fifteen minutes of her time. She had only forty five
more minutes before she was suposed to meet her parents, and there was no telling how long it would take for
her to find what she needed. It couldn't be helped though.. this was her best chance.
Torwards the back of the library she found a large red book that looked likely. She pulled it off the shelf anf flipped to
back index. There it was 'disguise' several page numbers were listed she picked one at random. 11, Polyjuice Potion..
no good that took too long to make. She filled back to the index again and picked another number,
this one was better page 959 the 'incocono' spell. 'Form a picture in your mind of the person you want to transform into,
hold this picture in your mind and say "incocono" if you hold the picture you will transform into the likeness that
you imagined. If done well the one who does the spell will remain in that form for as long as they wish.
When the spell is compleat say "iconicono" and you will regain your original form.' Denya read the page twice
then looked at the illistration it was a picture of a blond haired blue eyed girl. Denya rolled her eyes it looked almost like
muggle barbie doll she'd have to do something different. There were no other pictures so Denya reluctantly turned back
to page 960 that would have to do. Instead of the golden barbie hair Denya imagined dark black hair and violet eyes wearing
a dark outfit that seemed to be a cross between robes and a flowing muggle dress.
At least it was better than making up a picture herself, and it would work nicely for her purpose she looked nothing like
herself or her family members. Denya held the picture in her mind examining every detail satisfied she said "iconicono"
and changed. It wasn't an instant transformation it took about two minutes, when it was finished Denya glanced in the small
mirror hanging on the library wall she'd done well for advanced magic. She was now identical to the picture in her mind,
she'd just have to be careful, if she started to change back she'd need to quickly redo the spell.
She picked up the bottle and necklace then reached in her pocket for floo powder, somehow she hadn't lost it in
the transformation. She threw it in the library fireplace, said Knockturn alley and jumped in.
