Disclaimer: I own nothing Harry Potter. Phinx is the only person I own and my plot.
A/N: this is it. It took me long enough. I was just wondering whether you knew that Phinx is a short version of phoenix. Well, if you say Phoenix really fast you come up with Phinx. At least I did. Well enjoy, because this is the last chapter of The Malfoy twins.
Chapter 8.
"Please… don't… please…" Phinx began to plead to Harry. His heart fell to his toes when he looked into those blue eyes that were scared to death of him. He stepped forward and embraced her.
"Oh no, don't worry. I'm not going to hurt you. I'm not like that." Harry said suddenly. She breathed out in relieve and allowed herself the pleasure of comfort. 'Don't worry' wasn't exactly an order so she still felt a bit worried.
"Hey, this isn't exactly my comport zone, I mean you are Draco's sister. But what he did to you isn't fair. How can I take it away?" Harry asked.
"You can't, the gift giver must take it back and Draco refuses."
"Gift?"
"It's a family thing. Anyway, if it was up to him, I'll have this till the end of time. Forget you ever found out about it."
"It's not fair"
"No, it's not"
"I want to help"
"No! You've done too much already. Listen Harry, I'm evil. In fact I'm worse than Draco. He just has this one thing on me but believe me the day I get rid of this curse, that day Draco will suffer. And don't try to be nice to me or help me, I'm you're worst enemy. I'm dangerous." She turned and picked up her wand.
"Oh, Draco may be a scardy cat, but he's capable of more than you think. Don't ever underestimate him. He might just surprise you. And if you though he was bad? He doesn't even come close to me." She walked away.
For days Harry wondered about what Phinx had said. She was several times in the Great hall but every time Draco missed her with seconds. The day before the Yule Ball Draco walked to the Great hall at lunchtime. Harry and his friends happened to pass his way when Phinx jumped out of nowhere and wrapped chain around Draco's neck. He couldn't speak, probably not even breathe.
"Take the gift back Draco!" she ordered him as she rammed him, face first against the wall. he grunted but did nothing.
"Take it back and I'll give you air to breathe. Come on Draco!" she said. He screeched something but it wasn't words. A crowd gathered around them to see what was gong on.
"You know what this feels like? Well this is what you had made me feel ever since you gave me the 'gift'. Painful isn't it. Do you want some air? Take the gift back, now!" Draco dug his hand in his pocket and breathed something.
Nothing happened.
"Hey, let go of the boy. You're killing him" a Prefect shouted.
"He deserves it!" Phinx shouted back as she rammed Draco once more into the wall.
Then Harry realised it.
The curse wasn't there any more.
Then she realised it!
And let go of him. Draco slipped to the floor and gasped for breath. His breathing sounded wet – probably full of blood – and sickening. Phinx threw away the chain and sat down beside Draco.
"Hello love," she said as she gently wiped away a strand of sweaty blond hair.
"You…you" Draco tried but his voice was gone.
"I'll fix that for you… if we make it truce!" she said still gently running her fingers through his hair. Draco's eyes were murderous and the crowd started to break up.
"Truce…" Draco whispered. She smiled and helped him up. She took out her wand and with a few Latin words she healed the marks she had made around his neck and the bruising inside his throat. She hugged him and the whole drama was over.
That evening Phinx told Ron that she couldn't go with him to the Ball and that he was looking for trouble with her.
On the night of the Yule Ball, Phinx wore a beautiful Light green dress with a low cut back and a silver crest in the middle of her back tied with strings to her dress. she went with Draco and they had the most fun of the entire year. Peace remained between them for the rest of their lives – well there was the occasional fight and threat between them. But they had each other's backs all the way.
The end.
A/N: and they all lived happily ever after. Granted, Draco killed Dumbledor. Granted, Phinx eventually killed Harry and Ron in one shot. Granted, Lord Voldamort took over the world and evil prevailed.
Just kidding…
