Chapter Nine:Poisoned...
((Kuro's POV))
I finished my potions essay on types of poisons and chucked it inside my bag, ready for the Potions class tomorrow. I sighed, Kaname hasn't came back from his meeting with the Weasley Twins. I smirked, Umbridge will get it for real...
I looked to my hand which had healed completely immediately after leaving Umbridge's office after my detention with her, Kaname said that nothing can scar unless I had no blood for ages and was on verge of death...
I perked up when I smelt Kaname's scent enter the Slytherin common room and began to climb the staircase to our dorm, I breathed in his calming scent when Kaname entered finally with an amused expression plastered on his face.
"So how was the evil plotting?" I smirked in amusement at him.
"All settled for tomorrow." Kaname's smile got wider and I backed slightly away... that was one heck of a scary smile...
-/-/-
My mouth hung open in shock, everyone's reaction are... well similar to mine...
What was in front of me read:
"... the Ministry has now [passed] Educational Decree Number Twenty-three, which creates the new position of Hogwarts High Inquisitor. This is an exciting new phase in the Minister's plan to get to grips with what some are calling the falling standards at Hogwarts. The Inquisitor will have powers to inspect her fellow educators and make sure that they are coming up to scratch. Professor Umbridge has been offered this position in addition to her own teaching post and we are delighted to say that she has accepted."
-High Inquistior, Educational Decree 23...
'Nope Nope nope' I repeated in my head and stormed off to the Hall in anger.
Kaname raised his left perfect eyebrow, "I see that you saw it?" I nodded while stabbing my chicken covered in gravy in anger.
"I can't believe she actually used her sweet tickets to get the Minister to actually get that passed, what the hell Dumbledore is doing about this?" I whispered furiously to Kaname who then sighed.
"I'm not sure Kuro but please don't get on Umbridge's nerves just yet." Kaname smirked and ate a forkful of mash and peas.
"What are you planning?"
"Ah ah that will be telling my dear brother!" Kaname said almost sweetly and I shivered... that sweet tone didn't suit him at all...
-/-/-
I grabbed my bag and almost rushed to Umbitch's class in excitement, it was finally the next day and I had my lunch quickly to rush for the pranks that was going to happen in her class.
Kaname was in his seat already and smirked at me while nodding, I sat down next to him and got my books out as usual with a grin on my face.
It was around 10 minutes when Umbridge had finally arrived and she scanned us in suspicion then settled on her chair. She spoke her usual sickly-sweet speech and picked up her quill to write on her parchment.
A few minutes later she was struggling to write... no matter how many times she dipped the quill in ink and quickly write the letters but the inky words would not show at all.
She looked up suspiciously and watched every single student in the room, I kept my calm blank face while inside I'm snorting with amusement.
'It's not over yet.' Kaname sent the thought with a hint of a smirk to it.
'Oh? I will look forward to more then.' I sent while watching Umbridge snapping her quill in frustration.
'Oh you will my dear twin.'

He was right, I sat in my seat trying hard to not laugh out loud at the sight of Umbridge's shoes AND feet (As she took off her shoes and stepped on the stone that was charmed to stick her onto) stuck to the ceiling.
"LET ME DOWN NOW! I DEMAND WHOEVER IT WAS TO OWN UP AND LET ME DOWN BEFORE THEY ARE EXPELLED!" She yelled angrily while holding her pink hat on her head and her face reddening, I was suddenly hit with the memory of 'Uncle' Vernon's reddening face of anger before slapping me. I flinched and took deep breaths.
Kaname placed his hand on mine softly under the wooden desk.
'That man isn't your family, don't think of him anymore. I'll get my revenge on him for giving you a terrible childhood... I promise.' Kaname comforted me and I nodded thankfully.
'Thanks Kaname, I'm glad that I have you now.' I smiled at him fondly and laughed along with the others when a massive group of white birds appeared out of thin air and started attacking Umbridge. (Not painfully guys!)
Kaname smiled at me and gripped my hand fondly while turning back to stare at Umbridge in amusement.
-/-/-
Unfortunately Filch had arrived at the scene a few moment later and yelled at the birds while we packed our books and started to leave the classroom. But before Kaname and I left, Kaname quickly flicked his wand and Umbridge fell onto Filch immediately.
I laughed hard at their faces and the struggles to get up and away from each other.
"Oh Merlin that was amazing! I needed the laugh for ages!" I laughed more and Kaname nodded while smiling at me.
"Glad you enjoyed it, a little doing at the Hall later may amuse you today." Kaname's eyes twinkled slightly in amusement and mischief, I shook my head laughing.
My laugher died a little while later and we made our way to Potions class. It was almost full so Kaname and I had to go our separate seats instead of together, Kaname sat next to a blonde haired girl with a dreamy look on her face and strange earrings hung from her ears... (LUNAAAAA)
The only seat left on the 'Slytherin's side' of the room was next to Draco so I took it, he gave a slight nod of his head.
"How are you Kuro?" He asked while staring disgusted at Ron Weasley's behaviour of picking his nose.
"Supposedly alright, I guess you heard about my recent class with Professor Umbridge?" I answered with amusement clear in my voice.
He laughed, "Merlin of course! Everyone spoke of the pranks! How ugly was her pants when she hung from the ceiling?"
"It was pink and lacy. Urgh..." I shuddered and Draco wrinkled his nose.
Snape stormed into the noisy classroom with black robes billowing as the whole class silenced immediately at the sight of Snape. I stared hard at the billowing robes and lean over to Draco to whisper "How does he made those robes billow?"
He shook his head in amusement "He never told me his secret." He whispered fondly about his godfather. I grunted and listened to Snape's usual speech.
Draco went off to collect the ingredients after Snape's speech and demands.
I lit the fire under the cauldron and let the water boil gently.
I suddenly thought about Draco and... his request...
*FLASHBACK *
I stared at Draco in shock while he fingered the hem of his outer robes. His sudden request was... I don't know how to put it... He wants me to turn him?! Practically he'll be like a servant to me and I would've doubted he wanted to be controlled like this ages ago with his stuck up behaviour but now...
"Are you serious about this?" I asked wondering, "Why me not Kaname?"
He nodded nervously and I glanced at Kaname.
'It is your choice as he gave you his approval.' He spoke through our thoughts.
'I... *sighs* it's strange as he's more different than the years with him being stuck up' I sighed.
"Alright, I'll do it." I spoke, breaking the silence.
He looked up and almost smiled in relief, "Thank you Kuro."
"So... when?" I asked curiously.
"W-Whenever you are free."
"On the first Hogsmeade weekend then? The castle will almost be empty." I offered and he took it.
*FLASHBACK ENDS *
I suddenly snapped from the memory and blinked at Draco poking my side gently.
"Hey hey, you fine?" He asked causally while setting the ingredients down and putting some on my chopping board. I nodded and got up from my stool, kicked it under the desk and started doing the ingredients that needed chopping.
We finshed earlier than the others and Snape grunted when I placed our vial on his desk, he willingly let us go and I nodded at Kaname who nodded back and went back to his potion.
I walked along with Draco out of the classroom and to the Slytherin Common Room. I spoke the password ('Salazar') and entered with Draco behind, I chucked my bag next to a black sofa and sat on it while yawning.
Draco shook his head at me and picked up a book from the bookselves near the fireplace and sat next to me.
Neither one of us broke the silence until... "Draco... can I ask why you want it?"
He looked up and frowned while spelling privacy wards around us, "I didn't want be controlled by anyone especially Dumbo and Moldy Shorts, my father is pressing me to pick sides which is more to his side really... I apologise if you feel that I'm using you but truthfully I want to join you Kuro. I was a jerk before and now I want to redo everything aswell."
I nodded understanding and smirked, held out my hand. He looked at it confused and then realised.
"I'm Draco Malfoy, nice to meet you." He smirked and held onto my hand and shook it gently.
"I'm Kuro Kuran, unlike the Harry Potter I was before." I chuckled, "Did you remember my reply?"
"Oh Merlin! I didn't even expected it! 'I think I can find the right sort myself, thank you' ..." He laughed and I wrinkled my nose.
"You were really stuck up before that I rejected you but I wished I hadn't now..."
"Why? What happened to the 'Golden Trio' now?"
"Ron and Hermione betrayed me..." I said, almost giving my emotions away.
"What? The bookworm and nose-picker? Seriously?"
I nodded, "I found out their secret relationship and they were being paid to be my best friends while moulding me to be the perfect Boy Who Lived." I said angrily.
"I knew something was off with them." Draco muttered and I looked at him. "What?"
"I once walked on them kissing behind a bookshelf at the back of the library." He said bluntly and I blinked.
"WHAT? When?"
"First year"
"THAT'S IT!"
-/-/-
I yawned while eating my hot roast dinner quietly and waited for Kaname. Draco sat beside me, eating his in silent.
We spoke of suspicious scenes and events that happened while staying in the common room, I told him of my entire life with the Dursleys and he told me his. His father was strict and educated him on Pureblood ideas and similar subjects, he was friends with Blaise and Pansy since nursery. Draco spoke of his mother fondly and love her dearly.
Kaname walked over to us with Senri and sat down.
"You're lucky that you get to go earlier, Luna was daydreaming most of the time but I didn't mind that much to be honest." Kaname smiled while picking his own roast dinner and sniffing the chicken on his fork but dropped it.
"Kaname?"
"There's fucking potions on the food." He whispered furiously.
I froze and looked at his plate and my plate, I cursed when I realised I ate some of the food that had the same potions.
A nasty feeling sank in my stomach and my right hand flew up to cup my mouth.
"Kuro?" Draco worriedly asked.
I immediately stood up and ran out of the Hall, dodging the incoming students and rushed to a nearby empty bathroom. A feeling of sickness hit me hard and I collapsed onto a sink when I managed to walk in then stumbled to a cubicle, I was violently sick in the toilet.
I felt cool fingers on my forehead and I almost panicked but calmed down when I heard Kaname's voice, "It's alright..."
"Kaname..."
Blackness took over me and I gladly let it consume my vision as I stumbled to nothingness...
-/-/
I bolted up and winced at the headache I gained, I realised I was in the familiar white bed along with the others in the Hospital Wing.
"Kuro?" I heard Kaname's voice and turned to my right to see him sitting on a chair with a book on his lap, he stared at me worriedly.
"Kaname?"
"Kuro you were poisoned..."
"What? By who?"
"As you know that all potions need a bit of the brewer's magic... Well...the magic signature from it was the same as... Dumbledore's."
"WHAT?"
