I don't own KHR, HP, Sherlock, or Ranma 1/2!

Quick Note: I'm really not happy with the last chapter that I posted. However, I think it will give me a bit of something to work on. After all, no one knows the person Nana was before, not even Nana.

foxchick1: I know. I think Nana's got some explaining to do.

D C JoKeR H S: Thanks. I know Draco won't be all kitties and puppies, and there's going to be something that will come up. He's just a bit insecure right now. Never really seen "A Pet's Life." Not on my movie list. There's too many Marvel movies and Disney on my list this and next year. Oh! And Aquaman! So far the best DC films have been "Suicide Squad" & "Wonder Woman."

FANactic Writer: Yes, I know it was a terrible cliffie! I couldn't resist, as I wasn't happy with the chapter. This chapter, though, is a different animal and will make getting Narcissa and Draco's away from Lucius a lot more difficult.


Strangers


"Who I am is none of your concern, young man," the older woman huffed at his arrogance. "Now, your mother merely has a bit of exhaustion. Quite foolish of her to be traveling so in her delicate position."

"Delicate what?" Draco was more awake now and inching his hand towards his wand.

"Don't tell me that she didn't inform you that she in the family way?" the older woman blinked at the young man in shock.

"Family way? We just escaped from my father. Why would we go back to him?" Draco now had his wand trained on the older woman.

"You are clearly unfamiliar with that phrase," the older woman frowned in disapproval. "I will not repeat myself if I have to say it this way, so listen well, child. Your mother is expecting."

"Expecting what?" Draco gripped his wand tighter.

"A child."

"I'm not sure that makes any sense, as I am her child," Draco snorted. "Now, state your intentions for being in this room."

"Not you. Another child. She is with child," the older woman pinched the bridge of her nose. "My grand daughter is a lot easier to understand. It must be the age gap."

"My mother's pregnant?" Draco blanched in fear, "What are you doing here?"

"Sirius asked me to watch over her, while he went to use the facilities. Andromeda was unavailable, as she was making sure that Madam Bones was taken care of. Now, are you quite done threatening me with your silly stick-wand?"

"Nonna," Nana sighed tiredly as she entered the room. "I see you've met my grandmother, Draco. That would make her your bisnonna. Now, why are you holding your wand on her?"

"She said mother was pregnant," Draco frowned.

"That's easy enough to check. Nonna, why don't you go find Luss-chan? Maybe Xan-kun and Squallo are back from their dates?" Nana asked hopefully. "Also, I need to see Luss, Viper, and Mai."

"Oh?" Nonna asked curiously.

"If it turns out to be anything, I'll let you know," Nana promised, waiting for Nonna to leave the room.

"Very well. Just be sure to teach this young man some better decorum," Nonna (Daniella) sighed in exasperation as she left the room.

"What's with that old bat?" Draco scowled angrily, "Mother can't be pregnant. Father said he'd never have more than one heir."

"Draco, I think that is one of the many reasons that your mother may have fled with you. Luss can tell us for sure. Just do me a small favor, little cousin? Call him Sorella. He prefers it," Nana warned the young man.

"Doesn't that mean sister in Italian?" Draco asked non-pulsed.

"It does. Nonna is Italian, as are most of my brother's family and friends. Most of my family is Japanese or Chinese, with a few Italians thrown in. We only recently learned about the Black side," Nana shrugged. "Now there's something that you should know about Nonna, she's very powerful and stronger than she looks. Don't underestimate her, she could kill your father with her eyes closed."

Draco looked to be about to say something when Lussuria burst into the room, "Na-chan! What can Sorella do for you?"

"A quick scan on Narcissa and Draco, if you could. I want a doctor to look them over, and who better than you, while Shamal is away?" Nana smiled at the okama.

"Will do, sugar! Sorella is on the case!" Luss grinned as they began to do a thorough check up on the two runaway Malfoys.


Nana was un-surprised that Nonna's observation had been correct. Now, she watched as Sirius blushed when returning to the room, "Sorry, it took longer in the loo than I thought."

"Next time, ask Nonna to get Andromeda or me," Nana sighed. "Draco found Nonna and it wasn't the best meeting. However, we may have another complication in their extraction from the Malfoy family. Narcissa is pregnant."

"Seriously?!" Sirius squeaked in surprise.

"Sirius, I am not doing that irritating pun. Now, since you've returned. I need to speak with Viper and Mai. I'll tell you later, okay?" Nana frowned.

"Okay, keep me informed. I'll make sure Draco is nicer to Nonna in the future," Sirius agreed. It still felt odd for him to call Daniella Nonna, but she had insisted, once she'd found out Nana was his sister.

Nana nodded and exited the room, leaving Sirius with Draco and Lussuria, who were trading fashion tips, while waiting for Narcissa to wake up. Sirius wasn't going to like the conversation, but he could deal. Nana was still thinking about what she had said to Ron, when she ran into Viper's chest.

"Nana?" Viper gave her a worried look.

"Nana, what's going on? You don't normally run into anyone unless you're deep in thought," Mai had been slightly to Viper's left.

"I was dealing with Ron when I blurted out a few things that I don't remember. I mean, I do, but I don't? I'm not sure I know what I'm saying," Nana shook her head in confusion. "Basically, I said that I had one best friend that made another friend that made them choose me or them. Then there was a second set that didn't make them choose and I said I had a lot of friends. Do you think that the memory charms my father placed on me could be doing this?"

Viper paused in thought, before stating, "It's possible that you are remembering bits of your childhood, before he wiped your memory. However, I couldn't be certain unless I went into your mindscape."

"I'm starting to feel that while the goblins removed some of the memory charms, that I'm still not remembering everything. Renato and Shamal suspected that I may have experienced some type of Sky-manipulation by Iemitsu or something, but could that be what really happened to me? It still doesn't make complete sense! And I remembered things about my son's life before they'd happen... I'm just so confused."

"What do you want us to do about it, Nana?" Mai raised an elegant eyebrow at her sister in all but blood.

"I think I want Viper to walk my mind, maybe with a healer and Luss at hand. I just, I keep remembering things that I'm not even sure are real. I thought my mind might even be from another Earth or something, at one point. Do you think this will help me, Viper?" Nana pleaded with the miser Mist.

"It might, but I think you should discuss this with your husband and children before taking this course of action. It can be dangerous, but we'll make it as safe as we can, if they agree," Viper advised.

"Thank you, Viper. I will," Nana sighed tiredly. "Mai, I should inform my Guardian's too, right?"

"Once you've talked with Tsuyoshi and the kids," Mai agreed.

"Thank you both," Nana smiled sadly at them before heading off to go look for Tsuyoshi.


In another area of the continent...

"We've arrived. Now to call our loyal Death Eaterssss and get ussss a proper body," the snake hissed.
