Chapter 2: You're the Liason?
Three days later, Mat was currently at the Ministry of Magic learning what he needed to learn before Sunday, while Mat was in the recording studio putting the last, last minute finishing touches on his CD, which was set to be released Friday. "Hey Drag, whose the little one?" One of the label reps asked, looking at the bundle in Dragon's arms.
"My son Tiger, don't worry he barely cries and can sleep through anything. I really didn't want to leave him alone, the girls ended up catching strep from playing outside with family friends, Noah and Luis are at work and Liza obviously has her hands full with the girls. Mat should be by aroundone to pick him up and take him home. Isn't that right?" Dragon asked, running his fingertips along Tiger's stomach tickling him a bit, he then laid Tiger on the couch by the glass door so he could keep his eye on the sleeping baby.
"Ready Dragon?" The guy called through the microphone and into Dragon's ear piece. Dragon held up both thumbs, showing he was definitely ready, the whole time keeping his eyes on Tiger.
"I, have always been a little shy. I've always been the quiet type till now, and I never let my feelings show ,I never let anybody know just how... Much I was so deep in love, but now that you're in my arms. I'm gonna stand on a rooftop, climb up a mountaintop baby, scream and shout. I wanna sing it on the radio, show it on a video baby, leave no doubt. I want the whole world to know, just what I'm all about I love to love you out loud." Dragon smiled over at Tiger, this song was about him.
"You keep bringing out the free in me, what you do to my heart just makes me melt. And I don't think I can resist, but I've never been one to kiss and tell. A love this true can't be subdued, so I'm gonna let out a yell. I'm gonna stand on a rooftop, climb up a mountaintop baby, scream and shout. I wanna sing it on the radio, show it on a video baby, leave no doubt. I want the whole world to know, just what I'm all about I love to love you out loud. Baby, I want the whole world to see...Just how good your love looks on me."
"I'm gonna stand on a rooftop, climb up a mountaintop baby, scream and shout. I wanna sing it on the radio, show it on a video baby, leave no doubt. I want the whole world to know, just what I'm all about I love to love you out loud. Baby, I love to love you out loud...Yeah, I love to love you out loud." Dragon was so busy singing, he didn't notice Mat walk in and sit down behind the mixing board.
"That was great Dragon, we'll mix it and listen to it over to see if you have to fix anything. I doubt it though it sounded pretty good, by the way, lover boy is here." Ralphie said, laughing at the annoyed look Dragon had. He hated when people called Mat lover boy. Mat got up and walked into the sound booth, kissing Dragon when he got there, before following Dragon out towards Tiger.
"How was work?" Dragon asked, picking up the Elmo doll and making it walk across Tiger's stomach while the little boy started making baby gurgling noises. Mat was lost in the picturesque moment. "Mat, babe."
"Huh? Oh, work was great, since it's just orientation. So, you do know that Draco and Harry invited us over to have dinner tonight right?" Mat asked, picking his son up and kissing him. Dragon followed having Elmo do a tap dance on Mat's head.
"They make sure a cute family." Eleanor, one of the record label's presidnet's, whispered into Ralphie's ear.
"Yeah, it's a shame the rest of the world will find out tomorrow. They could have probably kept Tiger on the down low for quite some time before being hounded by the paparazii and press. However, Dragon and Mat both want everyone to know that they have a child, they said that Dragon's parents did it that way. Dragon, though hounded by the press, has never had it as bad as some of these heirs. By the way, your liason to the wizarding world, the guy you were suppose to meet fifteen minutes ago, that would be him." Ralphie said, pointing towards Mat.
"Him, but he's like tweleve. The Minister of Magic sends atweleve year old to help me understand the wizarding world?" Eleanor asked, she had just become one of thepresidents of the company, she started in the muggle world and it was her first time being introduced into the wizarding one.
"He'ssixteen years old, and right now, he's your boss. Oh and your career depends on what he tells your boss. By the way you are now thirty minutes late for your meeting with him." Ralphie said smiling. Eleanor scowled, mumbling under her breath.
"Mr. Mcguire I presume?" Eleanor asked holding out her hand.
"Yes, and you must be my guest, Mrs. Monten?" Mat went to shake her hand but handed her a rattle instead. "Sorry about that, Dragon can you take him while I fill Mrs. Monten in on a few things." Mat handed Dragon Tiger, before kissing Dragon. "Right this way ma'am."Mat led her out the door, down the hallway, and towards the meeting room.
"I'm sorry for being late Mr. Mcguire, I didn't know my liason would be so-"
"Young, I understand. Now, as you will be on the road with us most of the time, that means you will be interacting with wizards and witches from all around the world. I was requested to be your guide because I am muggle born, which means that my mother is a muggle, a non magical person. You yourself are a muggle. Dragon and Tiger are purebloods, even though Harry's mother is a muggleborn. This is for you." Mat handed her a five inch, three ring binder. "These are the standard wizarding terms, items, and conversions. Instead of dollars and cents and euro's, we have Knuts, Sickles, and Galleons. There are 17 sickles, the silver ones, in a Galleon, the gold coins, and 439 Knuts, the bronze ones, in a Galleon. It's fairly simple once you get it down. Now, I would not go around publicly announcing that you are a muggleborn. Trust me, people will know, but that information falling into the wrong hands could be well detrimental to your health. Until you get use to everything I wouldn't travel anywhere alone."
"Now, why may I ask do you suggest that?" Eleanor wanted to be in charge of her own life, not have it run by somesixteen year old boy.
"Would you rather die at the hands of an enemy, or die of old age? There are wizards in this world Mrs. Monten that do not take kindly to muggles, especially muggles that are staying in the wizarding world. Right now, the only friends you have are those with the last names of Potter, Dumbledore, Lupin, and McGuire. There are a few, Blaise Zabini and his son, Severus Snape and his family, Marcus Flint and his son however not his wife, and of course those in the Order of the Phoenix. The families of the individual people I just named, and are on page twenty subsection tweleve, will kill you without a second thought in their mind as will most of the wizarding world. Since the fall of the Dark Lord Voldemort back about 14-15 years ago and his daughter Dark Hieress Kelly Riddle two years ago, the wizarding world is sort of on edge. However, that is my job and I will not bore you with details, just know that you are an outsider with no magic, magical child, or magical spouse, so Congratulations Eleanor you just made number one on the Death Eater most wanted dead list." Eleanor gulped loudly, shaking a bit.
"Whose number one on the Death Eater most wanted alive list?" Eleanor asked, her voice shaky.
"Do you mean kept alive or want to recruit?" Mat asked, turning towards her, offering her a cup of water.
"All of them? Whom am I to avoid?" Eleanor asked sitting down. She wasn't going to play around with her life.
"Kept Alive, Draco Malfoy, Dragon's father. He has every known Dark Arts book that belonged to the Malfoy family and Voldemort. If they want those books, the best bet is to keep Draco alive because he's the only one that knows where they are, not even Harry knows. The recruitment list should be obvious, Dragon in there. They've already tried to get him to recruit by kidnapping his twin siblings. Then there is Professor Chastity Mayer, well Chastity Snape now, she's wanted alive because she is the only known person besides Draco himself that knows how to bring someone back from the Avada Kedavra curse, or the killing curse. The only person known to survive it is Harry Potter, Dragon's dad. Seeing now why Dragon is most wanted as a recruit? Actually I guess any of the actual born Malfoy children would be wanted, but Dragon the most, though once the twins grow upI'm almost positive they'lltie fornumber two on the list. And of course, Harry Potter is, well, will be once you are back in the muggle world, the one most wanted dead."
"The twins? Didn't you just say that they were killed?" Eleanor asked getting all confused.
"Yes, heart failure due to inaccurate heart strenghtening potion. I believe Draco brought them back, maybe Harry I wasn't there when it happened. There is one killing curse, fairly new actually, that you can not return from. There is absolutely no cure for it The Dirimo Decessus curse, or permenant death. By the way, when I say you can't trust anyone but that list of people I mean it. There are those out there powerful enough to do wandless magic, I myself am not that powerful I wish I was or I'd give you a demon- wait a minute. Follow me." Mat practically raced back into the recording studio, Dragon was in the middle of fixing a verse of his song, but once he was done he walked out to a wound up Mat.
"Can I help you?" Dragon asked smiling and sitting down in the chair behind the mix board.
"Can you please do wandless magic so Eleanor here knows what I am talking about? Now this is a very rare experience for a muggle such as yourself, see wandless magic isn't supposed to be used everyday, it's sort of like a secret weapon against your enemies. They're going to expect you to use your wand, now wizards and witches are trained in school to be able to do spells wordlessly, but to do them wandlessly takes a lot of magic." Mat said practically bouncing up and down, he loved watching Dragon do wandless magic because Dragon was always horny afterwards for soem reason. Dragon put up his hand, at which Eleanor started to giggle thinking Mat and Dragon were trying to pull a prank on her, and waved it at the Elmo toy next to his sleeping son, making him float in the air above Tiger and spin in a circle much like a mobile.
"That's amazing." Eleanor said, looking for a wand, at not finding one she became very worried. "So these Death Eater people, can they do this?"
"Some, I'm sure my grandfather Lucius Malfoy probably could. Though it's usually those in the inner circle and the Dark Lord or Lordess that can perform it. Ready to go to dinner?" Dragon asked, turning towards Mat and kissing him.
"Just about. Mrs. Monten if you have any questions or concerns regarding anything you've heard, seen, or read please contact me at Potter Manor, through Owl postor Floo network, or contact the Ministry of Magic. If you have any questions regarding Death Eaters, Dark Lords, Dark Magic, or the Dark Arts I suggest you contact the people in the back of the book, my best recommendation would be Severus and Chastity Snape. Severus was a Death Eater spy and Chastity well, she's not dangerous anymore let's just put it that way shall we. Owl and Floo Network directions are on pages one and two. The Ministry has hired you an armed escort. Ah, here he is, he will pick you up, and drop you off at your hotel room for the next four days. Where ever you go, all you have to do is hit this button and it will page him, he's been handpicked by the Minister of Magic Remus Lupin, and for good reason, not only does Remus trust him with his life, he's also the Minister's fiance."
"Hello, I'm Alohov Dolohov. Mrs. Eleanor Monten, if you'll follow me to your limo we can take you to the Leaky Cauldron and Floo from there." Alohov said, offering his arm to her.
"You mister were definitely made for this job." Dragon said, kissing Mat deeply.
"Yes, however if you don't stop, not only will we be late for dinner and having your parents mad at us, but you will wake our son up and I definitely do not want to deal with a cranky Tiger on top of your mad parents." Mat said, picking up the carrier that Tiger was currently asleep in,and making his way out the door and towards the car the Ministry was letting Dragon and Mat borrow.

"Mrs. Snape, Mr. Snape, it's nice to see you both again." Dr. Alex Zuckerman said, taking her wand out. "Let's have a look shall we?" Chastity pulled up her t-shirt a bit and laid back while Alex rubbed some gel onto Chastity's stomach.
"We know that we sort of said we wanted the sex of the baby to be a surprise like Eros was, but can we know?" Chastity asked, counting how many months along she was, currently it was five months along.
"Yeah, don't worry about it, it happens all the time." Alex said smiling, running her wand over Chastity's stomach. Instantly the image of the baby popped up out of the wand.
"How is-"
"He? He's doing great, now how's your pregnancy going?" Alex asked. Severus and Chastity had huge smiles on their faces.
"We're having another son? I'm going to be a father to another son?" Severus asked amazed, looking at the tiny child inside Chastity.
"Yes Mr. Snape, you're having another son. Chastity, hows your pregnacy going?" Alex tried again, giggling a bit with Chastity at the astonished look Severus gave the picture.
"Great, so far it's going perfectly. Excuse my husband, it's his first pregnancy."
"I believe that it's his first son also correct? Capricus' father was a Sirius Black." Alex asked, looking over Chastity's chart.
"Yea, which could also explain why he's suddenly lost all attention to this conversation."
"Here, I'll take a picture for him like I did Capricus. Plus, if you wanted to stop having children after this one I'm sure we could always perform a vasectomy."
"WHAT? Not huh, no way is any crazy knife loving person going anywhere close to that area." Severus said, jumping back from the two girls.
"Welcome back Severus, I see we finally got your attention."
"That was just being cruel, and I was too paying attention."
"Sev, what was the last thing I said?" Chastity asked, looking at Severus.
"Your pregnacy was going great." Both girls started laughing at that.
"Here Severus." Alex handed him the sonogram picture of his son. "That's all for today, I'll see you back here soon or are you two going back to Hogwarts shortly?"
"We'll be returning to Hogwarts a month earlier then expected. I was made Headmaster and sort of have to get a lot of things done."
"Okay then, I'll hand over your file to Poppy and see you at St. Mungos for the birth right?"
"Yep. Thank you again Dr. Zuckerman." Chastity said, wiping her belly off and fixing her shirt before getting up.
"Anytime."

"Tad bit late aren't we?" Draco asked sarcastically.
"We weren't doing anything. Mat got a little held over doing his job. Remus kept him late, and then when he got to the studio,one of the newpresidents of the company didn't think he was the person she was suppose to meet. She had him waiting for about twenty minutes before one of the other people told her. Ralphie and I almost fell out of our chairs laughing when they left."
"So how is everyone?" Mat asked, taking a sip of his water.
"Great. The twins are missing their big brother. You will be there for their second birthday right?" Harry asked, looking Dragon in the eye.
"You know, I've begun to notice that their are a lot of us born during the summer. The twins, Alyssa, Brychan, Hermione's daughter Amanda, Capricus, and me." Dragon said, counting each kid off on his fingers. "Of course, I'll be there though. I was thinking that they could come to the concert I play that night, and have the audience sing them happy birthday, and then they could spend the weekend with us, that way you don't have as many kids to look over."
"As long as you promise me that you'll contact us if anything happens." Harry looked at both of them.
"Of course. I promise." Dragon said, after Harry gave him a stern look.
"By the way, Alyssa's starting to walk pretty well and talk full sentences. The triples are beginning to form words to they should be saying their first words any day now."
"I can't wait, that must be so exciting." Mat said, he really couldn't wait until Tiger started doing all those things.
"So are you two getting excited about seeing the world?" Draco asked, cutting into the conversation.
"Yeah, I just wish someone would have taught me a few languages."
"Yes and where would that have gotten you? The best way to learn is to go there and pick it up. Your grandfather left me stranded in the middle of France with a petrey dish, water, a cork, and a magnatized needle and say there ya go, construct your compass and find your way home. How the heck was I suppose to know how to make a compass at seven and find my way home? How do you think I know French and Italian so well?" Draco said scowling.
"He didn't do that."
"Heck yes he did, you can ask him yourself the next time you see him. Your grandfather was pure evil." By this time, the waitress had come back with their food. "Thank you, that'll be all."
"I swear, I'll be in amazement at how you two got together when I figure it out." Dragon said, taking his son back so he could feed him.
"Anyways, Mat how's the new job going?" Harry asked, begining to eat his dinner.
"Great, it's definitely turning out to be interesting and the best part is I already know everything I'm explaining and teaching. When I first asked about the job I thought I would be totally lost. Oh, that reminds me Dragon, where is the tour starting off at?"
"In New York, we're going around America first, and then coming to England so that we're here by the time school starts. That way we can go to Diagon Alley and pick up our school supplies, we won't be tired from the plane flights."
"Okay, then I know exactly what's going to happen. Remus warned me ahead of time."
"What's going to happen?"
"Magical world press conference. It'll be televised throughout the nation. It'll be the head of the U.S. Magical Liason office, the head of the U.S. Auror office, and me. I'm so excited."
"That's great Mat, I'm sure you'll do a wonderful job." Draco said, noticing the estatic look on Mat's face.

D/N: Before we forget like usual the song is titled "Love you out loud" by Rascal Flatts. This would have been updated earlier, but I totally forgot that I didn't update it and went right on to update Chapter 3 which is 5,000 and some odd words long so it's a very long chapter. I guess I will wait to update it though. Kime and I are sooo sorry. We just got carried away with chapter 3 and forgot to post chapter 2. We also wanted to apologize about not posting the summary, but neither Kime nor I could read Twisted without getting bored, because we already knew what was going to happen.
Bit/Suck/Fuck/Fruit cake: obviously you can make your name longer lol. I never doubted you on that. Kimcake: Yep, January 13th is my birthday. So I am now offically 19 years old, but I keep forgetting and writing 18 :(. I know the I told you the persuasive part was in this chapter, but I honestly though I was still working on Chapter 2! I'm glad that you got the Mcgonagal and Dumbledore clue.I know, I hate the fact that we forget what we were talking about, and then no one wants to look it up. Yeah like I'm suppose to believe that Dragon or James orevenSeverus didn't tell you about the seventh year thing. Give me a break.Dragon: Noticed and read what? I'm lost. He he thanks. Jamsie: I know I don't know what youdon'tknow and if you knew you, didn't know it because you would actually know, but that's because I really know what you don't know because you don't know it and I do. :p. Plus, I've already read chapter 3, that's the best part of being a part of this story, you know all the in's and out's before anyone else, stuff that I know that you don't know cause if you knew then you wouldn't really know because Kime doesn't even know and therefore what she doesn't know I don't know and you really really don't know what I know. You WORSHIP Kime? Why don't you worship me? Or your lover Severus? Oh come on, even I can see it's obvious that you flirt with him.However, I do see that you have backed off ofSerenity.Have a lovely day yourself.
Heather: He he he, Kime has a surprise just for you in the next chapter. No, Sevie isn't going to be all I'm headmaster, bow down and kiss my shoes. Sev: (to Kime): Woman, I told you not to call me Sevie. crucio's Kime You love us all so much? You couldn't have gotten this far with out us? What are you talking about? Turns to you well?
Sarahamanda: Glad babysitting went well, and that you enjoyed Twisted 4 so far.
