I've got 14 reviewers, yay! If I got 20 I'll put everyone's name up here and thank everyone personally. If anyone has any ideas they want me to include in this story just send them to me. I initially wrote started to write this story because I was sick of reading other peoples and not liking the way some of the story line went. NOT THAT I DON'T LIKE READING OTHER PEOPLES OFCOURSE it just that I'd get ideas to where I wanted things to go and I figured if I wrote my own I could make it happen. So if you feel the same way about anything that happens in my story, well then I might just change it a lil' to better suit you!
Chapter 5: It All Comes Together
Mya having arrived at the headmaster's office slightly sooner then Draco was the first to knock on his almost intimidating wooden door. She waited for the 'come in' as Draco arrived behind her slightly out of breath. They heard the welcoming words and proceeded to enter Dumbledore's office. Without being asked they both seated themselves in front of the old professor, Draco settled himself in somewhat meekly until he risked a glance over at Mya and seeing that her head was held high, decided to do the same. Mya laid her glare onto Dumbledore already determined to play her part with perfection.
Dumbledore rose his head to the challenge, "Ah Mya, I thought you would be here sometime soon. I'm guessing that you've come to be re-sorted?"
The extent of Dumbledore's knowledge unnerved Draco but Mya didn't let any nervousness show, so neither would he.
"I'm glad, professor", she said respectively," that you've already taken it upon yourself to use my real name. I'd hate for this to become a thing that I'd have to repeat over and over.
"So would I my dear," his eyes becoming distant at the irony of repetitiveness. He knew that this is exactly what was happening, a repeat of what happened 50 years ago. He sighed somewhat sadly.
Draco thinking that he better have some dignified imput in this little gathering at the expense of loosing his reputation in front Herm (cough) Mya's said," Well Dumbledore, don't you think that you should get on with re-sorting Mya so that she can get on with her life! I mean we don't want to waste anytime on necessities when she could be using that time getting her settled as her knew self".
Mya sniffed distastefully, " I can speak for myself Draco".
Turning her head to once again face the disappointed headmaster she simply said," I'm ready to start my new life".
"Well Miss Granger you'll just have to wait until tomorrow evening, where your 'new self' can be properly announced to the whole school. Until then I suggest you go get a good night's sleep and prepare for classes tomorrow".
Draco and Mya unseated themselves and headed towards the door. Glancing over her shoulder she mouthed the name 'Riddle'.
"Yes, of course", Dumbledore muttered as his students exited the room knowing full well that his beloved Hermione wasn't his anymore.
Once out of Dumbledore's office Mya began to head towards her own quarters but Draco grabbed her arm. As she turned, Draco caught sight of her face before she put a 'happy mask' on. She looked a little depressed.
"Mya are you okay?"
"Sure I'm okay, whatever gave you the idea that I wasn't?" she said as she laughed lightly.
Shaking his head and thinking that he must have imagined her depressed expression he started to pull her in another direction.
"Draco, where are we going?" Mya asked.
"I thought we may as well get a start on the main part of our mission. If I introduce you to all the Slytherins now, they'll have had a chance to get used to you already so that by tomorrow we'll be all set to start this 'grouping'".
Hermione took his hand in her own and looked into his eyes. Oh how they were like an icy waterfall, she just wanted to bathe herself in them. Get rid of all her fears, all her doubts.
"Lets go".
As they entered the Slytherin common room Mya received a chorus of abuse. The only one not taking part in this was Pansy, who was sitting in silence looking at her. Suddenly she got up and went and stood next to her leader. Guess she is loyal after all…
Draco took in this little display with much amusement. Now, deciding not to let it carry on he shouted "Silence!"
"We all know the legend of Reno's lost daughter".
"May he rest in peace" someone put in.
Draco raised his hand," This is Mya. She has been found by me, and accepted by our Dark Lord. You must accept her also".
At this there was uproar. Afraid for Mya's safety Draco went to step in front of her but she shoved past him and went to stand on her own in front of the pissed off Slytherins. Suddenly they went quiet.
"Who dares to not believe I am a descendant of Slytherin himself? That I am not a Vampire's daughter or a reigning Dark Lord's niece? Who dares to defy me?
"I do, I defy you, I don't believe you"
Mya looked around for the culprit. It was a tall, dark seventh year. His name was Blaise, Draco's best friend. But there was no way that Mya was going to take mercy on him for this. With a spell she had designed herself she muttered the words garganta de la rebanada and watched as an invisible knife sliced through Blaise's throat.
She walked up to him and made him kneel in front of her. "Now do you believe me?"
He gave a nod and Hermione quickly healed his cut. He stood up and walked over to stand next to Pansy. Draco passed his friend a summoned glass of water.
"Who else dares to question me?"
In an unusional movement the rest of the Slytherin population got on their knees to pledge their allegiance to the Dark Lord's niece.
"I'm glad you've chosen to believe me. My uncle's first orders for this year have already arrived. This is the year we will take over the wizarding world. My uncle has ordered that Draco, and I shall make our own group of young death eaters, which we will call as we see fit. You will take orders from either Draco or me, these orders we receive from my uncle or Lucius. Any questions?"
Everyone shook their heads.
"Good, now the first thing I went to do is change the Slytherin colors". And with that she magicked the Slytherin banners and furniture to change their colors to blue and black.
"The next thing we are going to do is decide on a name. Hmmm, can anyone think of anything that would be well suited to our cause?"
Pansy walked over to Mya and kneeled before her. "My lady I think we should keep what we are simple and straight forward. I think we should call ourselves 'Dark Side'.
Mya slipped her fingers under the girl's chin. Pansy in fact did not look at all like a pug. After having lost her baby fat she gave in to a dignified beauty. Like herself, Pansy also had black hair, but she had yellow eyes with green flecks and soft pink lips. She made the girl rise to her feet. Mya kissed her on the cheek and released her.
"The it's settled. We will be the Dark Side!" Mya raised her hands in praise and smiled proudly as she listened and watched her followers celebrate the Dark Side's making. She walked over to Draco and placed her pale hand in his. Draco drew her aside.
"Is something wrong Mya?" asked Draco, a little concerned.
"Yes, but I don't know how to explain it without looking like an idiot".
Draco took note that the air of authority Mya had taken on when they had begun this little meeting had left her. She had let her guard down for him, at least just a little.
"Explain it as you know it", said Draco gently.
"This is going to seem really stupid but, I don't want to be like this with them all the time. I want to be the authority, but I want their love as well as their obedience. I need it. But Slytherins don't love do they? And good leaders are harsh, they must rule with an iron fist…"
At this Draco let out a small chuckle and embraced her.
"Oh my love, they will soon love you like I always have. Even our Dark Lord loves and continues to want to love. Our followers a loyal because they love him and truly believe in their duty, so will our followers. You will need to be firm sometimes, but you can be their friend all the time".
Mya slowly nodded to show she understand. After a moment, with hesitation she asked," Do you Draco, do you really love me?"
He buried his head in her shoulder, in turn she embraced him. "Yes, I do. Since I knew of the legend that is you I dreamt of the girl you would be. In my dreams I knew how you looked and how you walked. I knew who you really were as I looked into you eyes and then on the train when I saw you come towards me I knew straight away who you were. You finally turned into Mya".
"But Draco, how can you love me when you hated how I used to be?"
"I was always strangely drawn to Hermione, why do you think I picked on you more then Potter or the Weasels?"
At this Mya laughed. I want to go bed Draco. Draco nodded. They said their goodbye and took leave. Back in the head dormitory Draco and Mya fell asleep embracing each other on the newly colored Slytherin couch.
Suddenly Mya awoke. A window was open and she had been cold. She summoned a blanket and threw it over Draco. With her fingers she brushed away a stray piece of hair from his forehead and smiled. Walking into her room she picked up a piece of paper and a pen and began to write.
Dear Uncle,
Draco has introduced me to Slytherin and we are already acting on the orders you sent. We have called our 'grouping' Dark Side. It was Pansy Parkinson's idea. I have appealed to Dumbledore and he has agreed to letting me get re-sorted, but he wants me to do it tomorrow at dinner, in front of the entire school. I apologize if I'm not satisfactorily respectful; I really just don't know how to talk to you. I'd really like to hear from you, maybe you could tell me a bit about my real parents and why you left me with muggles. Maybe in turn I'll tell you what happened to me in my old life.
Yours faithfully
Mya
A.N. Well I finally got this chapter out, it didn't take quite so long. I hope I didn't induce Mya and Draco's relationship I just thought it was a little fitting and they had to get together sometime. Still, it doesn't mean I'm going to be rushing into anything real quick. I have a bit of a problem though, my summary sucks and I don't seem to be attracting many readers, so if anyone has any good ideas for a summary please leave it in a review or send it to me, thanks hope you liked this chappy.
