He sighed once again and thought, 'This is going to be an interesting year, isn't it?' And closed his eyes and soothe his breathing, falling asleep after a while.
3rd Person P.O.V.
~~
Draco was walking around a dark room. It smelled old and the floor felt moist and dirty; like it was abandoned. Draco tripped and fell on something hard, he felt around until he found an item. It was slightly round and had slight bumps at a flat area of the round item he touched the bottom of it and then found two holes on the side, 'a skull?' He thought keeping the skeletal head with him as he stood up. His eyes adjusted to the dark the place was definitely abandoned but why is he here? Why was this old room so important? Draco walked around questions popping in his head when he noticed something.
Snake skin
He looked around to find even more but this one looked bigger and fresher. Draco flinched slightly as he heard something open. He looked around and noticed the light coming from some sort of door that was opened.
Someone was standing there.
They where small biased on the persons height, some of the light reflected on them reveling long ginger hair. 'Was that... the female Weasley...?' Draco's blood ran cold. Was this what his dream wanted to warn him about? The young girl stepped inside the dark room and into the path where some snake statues stood. Draco hesitantly followed her trying not to make too much noice. She stopped once she got to the statue of an old man on the wall and gently hissed.. at it... was she speaking Parseltongue..? Draco kept looking at her as she hissed at the wall when she suddenly stopped and turned around. Blood red eyes looked at him before glancing around, Draco sighed in relief she didn't actually see him. Before she completely turned around, Draco caught the familiar book on her hands... was that...
~~
Draco woke up with a strained gasp. He looked around and grabbed his wand until he catches his breath. He made a quick 'tempus' spell showing 4:20. Draco sighed again knowing he won't be able to go back to sleep and went to the bathroom, grabbing his robes and underwear as he went. Once his in the bathroom he dispelled the glamour he had and carefully undo the sticking charm he did on his mask. He looked at the wolf like mask and proceeded to take of his sleeping wear gloves included.
Once he was in the shower he traced some new scars he had gained this summer. Most of them were burn marks from the bulls and some scars were from training from his early years. The most noticeable one was the scar that went from his left shoulder to his right hipbone, a reminder of his first quest; his gloves. Draco sighed and pushed the rising memories away, turning off the shower and getting off. He got changed and wrote his 'dream' in his 'dream jornal' one could say.
Draco carefully made his way to his dorm door this was a bit earlier than he normally would go to the common room. Hearing the loud snoring from his roommates make his doubt go away and slipped of to the common room. No one was there. Not even Snape.
Contemplating his decisions, he went out of the common room and just started to wander around the school for a bit. It was quiet and a little dark in the halls, luckily Draco hasn't seen any teachers out or awake at this hour. Draco continued to wonder around when he heard hushed whispers and laughter.
He tensed and slowly began walking to the noise 'please don't be a teacher, please don't be a teacher, please don't be a teacher,' he thought while turning around the corner. What he saw made him stop. "Shh, be quiet George!" A redhead boy whispered at the identical boy beside him. "Sorry Fred, can you pass me the glitter?" The other redhead whispered while grabbing a red bucket from out of nowhere. The redhead, Fred, passed George a bag full of yellow and red glitter while filling a yellow bucket with water.
'What the fuck?' Draco thought. Both twins stopped and turned at Draco. "Fuck," Draco whispered to himself and looked at the twins eyes. "So..." he trailed of. Both twins looked at each other nodded and looked back at Draco. "Well Fred it seems we have company," George said. "Indeed dear brother what do we do?" Fred said posing a thoughtful look. George and Fred looked at each other, "Oh I know-"
"It's time to preform-"
""THE AMNESIA METHOD!""
Both twins quickly grab Draco by the arms and start walking somewhere. Draco squirmed and kicked at the air trying to get of the twins tight grasp on his arms. "I won't tell anyone I swear!" Draco said still squirming.
Both twins stopped walking and looked at Draco, ""Do you promise?"" They both asked in perfect unison. Draco slightly smirked, "Only if you let me help." Both twins smirked and let go of Draco's arms. The unusual trio went back to the buckets they left. "So, what exactly is the plan to do with these?" Draco asked looking at the buckets filled with water and glitter. "I'm glad you asked-" one of the twins, George said. "-You see we plan to place-"
"-the buckets on top of the door-"
"-And when someone opens the door they'll get stuck with glitter everywhere-"
""-for the rest of the day!"" Both twins said. Draco nodded then looked at the buckets, "Wouldn't it be better if we used flour, water, and feathers? Those are harder to get completely off, or maybe we can do the glitter too." Draco said while looking at the twins.
Both males looked at Draco and smiled at each other, "Well George, looks like we got ourselves a new prank buddy." Fred said, George nodded, "Indeed Fred." Draco looked at the twins slightly confused, "Wait what?" Both twins looked at him with slight amusement, "You're a new prank buddy." Fred said as it was the most obvious thing in the world. "Wait shouldn't you be mad thought? You know the whole I bully your little brother and all," Draco said looking at the twins like they had turned nuts.
"Well at first we were-"
"-But then when we where gonna prank you last year-"
"We followed you around and noticed-"
"-that you really don't bother other students and-"
"you normally just sneer and insult Ron when he's with Harry-"
"-otherwise you just ignore everyone else-"
""-and just do your work. Besides Ron can take care on his own and win his own fights."" Both finishes at the end. Draco looked at the twins, "You know you're more observant than what people give you credit for." Draco said looking at the twins with amusement, "anyway where are we going to get the flour from?" Draco asked the twins. The twins just walked away turned around and nudge their heads to the side as saying, 'follow us' so Draco did.
Once they stopped walking Draco saw they where in front of a painting with fruits. "What are we doing in front of a painting? Talk to it to let us get some flour or what?" Draco deadpanned. The twins just smirked and said, ""Tickle the pear oh great young one,"" they stood apart and bowed. Draco rolled his eyes and tickled the fricking pear, once he did the painting opened and there stood a hole in the wall. Draco looked at the twins and went inside the twins following him. Once inside he was prevented with a lot of house elves working on the kitchen. Draco stood there as the twins asked one of the elves for where the flour was kept and if they had any feathers. Once they had the flour and feathers they went back outside.
"I didn't know that was there, are they other hidden rooms you know of?" Draco asked the twins. They just kept quiet with smirks in their faces, "assholes," Draco muttered, but he can't help but smile a bit. They remind him of the Stoll brothers making him feel a bit homesick about. Draco snapped out of his thoughts as the trio made it to their supplies were left. They where going from door to door placing the items while snickering here and there. Draco stopped snickering, "You know what." Both twins payed attention to him. "If a teacher were to catch us they would be either proud, confused, or extremely suspicious of a Slytherin and Gryffindors hanging out together willingly," Draco mused, but he was right Slytherins and Gryffindors being together and not hexing each other; unbelievable! The twins just grinned, "Well I hope they get used to it-" Fred started.
"-cause there's more coming-" George continued.
""Their way."" The twins said in unison. Draco rolled his eyes at their smirking faces and paled at the thought of what the twins meant. He shuddered, the more time he spend with the twins the more he remembered someone with red hair.
Draco eyes widen and he looked at the twins with a serious face. "I know this might sound weird but has your sister been acting a bit... out of it lately..? Like has she been acting strange... or like she's there but she's not really... there..?" He asked the twins. They rose an eyebrow at his sudden questioned but seeing the seriousness on his voice and slight waver on his voice they thought seriously. A few minutes passed when one of them said, "I've noticed she sometimes stays on her room than she usually does, and that she always seems to carry around that book around but that's about it." The slightly taller twin said. "Why are you asking?" The other asked glancing at Draco with confusion.
Draco sighed and said, "When you where collecting your supplies at the bookstore, I saw my father slip in a book in your sisters bag. I just kept thinking about it since it gave me a really bad feeling and honestly I was pretty suspicious at the whole thing. So, could you do me a favor and try to keep that book away from her? I don't know what it could do, but I don't think it's a good idea letting her keep an unknown book.." he trailed of. The twins nodded in understanding, it made Draco sigh in relief knowing he had someone look over the connection of his Demi-God dream and that book. ""We'll try our best to keep an extra eye on her and the book, maybe once we get it we'll give it back to you..?" Draco nodded in appreciation, they kept talking when they heard something. It sounded like little mews from what sounded like a cat, the boys froze and quickly went inside the closest classroom. Draco kept the door slightly open as he saw Professor McGonagall in her Animagus form. He waited for a bit until he couldn't see her and let out a sigh of relief, "Thank Gods she didn't catch us or we would've been screwed." The twins nodded and they carefully got out of the classroom, "This is were I'll have to go, it was nice being with you I guess." Draco said and waved goodbye at the twins.
He carefully made his way back to the Slytherin common rooms were some early birds were handing out in. He carefully made it to his dorm room to collect his book bag and give Eclipse some food and water. When he noticed his dorm mates were still asleep, Draco cast a quiet 'Tempus' and saw that it was barely 6:45 in the morning. He sighed in annoyance and silently cursed himself for not having a normal sleeping schedule, he smirked mischievously as he stood by the door. "GUYS WAKE UP WE'RE GOING TO BE LATE TO CLASS!" Draco yelled in a fake panicking voice.
As soon as he finished yelling that everyone jumped of their beds (or fell down in Lucas, Marcus, and Blaise's case) they all started to sloppily put on their uniform, or go to the bathroom and take a quick shower. Once they were all finished they all noticed Draco looking at them arms crossed and leaning on the wall. Face showing a mixture of pure bliss and amusement, "Wow, that was a new record I should do that more often." The others put two and two together and started yelling profanities at Draco as he ran out of the room snickering. Draco waited downstairs on the common room for his roommates to get down. Once they did they were all glaring at Draco with grumpy expressions. "Aah, looks like almost everybody woke up on the wrong side of the bed today," He coed, a smirk in his face. "Shut up," Blaise grumpily replied.
"Come on lets go before the Gryffindors get to classes first," Draco said making the grumpy teens and kids follow him to their respective classes.
oOo
Draco was not paying attention to what Lockhart was saying his 'teacher' just gave everyone in class a pop quiz; about himself. Draco lost all respect about his teacher right there and then, he new Lockhart was quite annoying and egotistical but this just takes it to a whole new level of bullshit. Draco read the 'quiz' again.
What is Gildeory Lockhart's favorite color?
What is Gildeory Lockhart's secret ambition?
The questions just went on and on and Lockhart expected students to know all of this? Let alone answer the fifty-four questions about him, Draco came to this class to learn about the Dark Arts not to learn the biography of Gildeory Lockhart! Even so he didn't want to he had to answer them as this was an actual grade. After everyone was finished with the pop quiz, Lockhart brought out a cage full of Cornish Pixies calming he had 'caught them all himself' and proceeded to open the cage letting the electric blue pixies everywhere.
It. Was. A. Nightmare.
Pixies flying everywhere and breaking things here and there. All while Lockhart left the room after his wand was thrown out of a window by a pixie. Draco grabbed a nearby book and started hitting the pixies with it as gently as he could whenever they got close to his table his table mate, Coyle, doing the same. Soon all the other pixies were places back to the cage by Potter and his friends. And as soon as Potter putted the last pixie the bell rang.
Aaaaannnnddd done! Hope you all like this chapter and that you don't mind Draco hanging out with the twins it was an idea a friend gave me, and I just wanted to put it here.
Bonus storyline
"Hey, have you seen Ron or Harry anywhere by any chance?" Fred asked Draco. Draco stopped putting the glitter in one of the buckets, "What?"
"Yeah have you seen them? We didn't see them at the common room or the train earlier," George said looking at Draco as well. 'Well shit I'm supposed to make sure Potter doesn't die, yet I don't even know where they are. Good job Draco now you'll have an angry goddess after your ass for not doing the one thing she asked you! Well shit sorry mom, sorry unknown father I'm a failure.' Draco curled up into a tiny ball and said to the twins. "You'll have the privilege be the ones to let me down into my tomb once I die, just to let me down one last time," he deadpanned as he closed his eyes and rolled over his tummy.
End bonus. Hope to see you in the next chapter bye! Before I leave I'll answer some questions people in the comments have asked.
