Again sorry about the long wait but I'm in college now so it could take a good long while until I get some time to finish these next few chapters. Anyway Katherine wakes up just a day after Dumbledore's funeral and the death eaters trash the school, but she won't find anything until she goes back to the Burrow and sees her future in-laws to reveal her true identity to Harry and them. Charlie's still in Romania but he'll come back sometime later.

If I go on further then I'll tell the whole story but still I'm running short on ideas here, and I don't know if I should put in a part where Katherine is forced to attend a Death Eaters ball by Voldemort. Anybody got any ideas for me? Read and review please thank you…;D

Two months after Katherine's long sleep:

Katherine yawned and stretched out after waking up from a long sleep. She looked at the calendar, and saw it had been two months since she fallen out.

"TWO MONTHS?!!" she scrambled around looking for her clothes, tangling out her hair, grabbed her robe and ran out the passageway towards the school. 'Damn it why did it take so long this time?'

As soon as she reached the school her heart sank at the sights before her eyes. All the beautiful gardens outside the school grounds were turned into ash, along with Hagrid's hut but at least it was still standing. Students were leaving with their parents, teachers were out repairing damages all over the school, Katherine knew what caused this, but she had to get the full story from someone she knew had to have been there. She apparated to the Burrow, seeing not much was left except maybe the bottom part; she ran inside, looked around and saw Bill lying on the couch with Fleur attending to some nasty scratches and gashes on his chest and legs.

"What happened?" she spoke out causing Fleur to turn and see her with tearful eyes before enveloping her in a huge bear-hug. Her tears fell onto Katherine's shoulder as she stuttered quietly.

"Ogwarts, vas a-attacked……G-Greyback h-hurt Bill…he vasn't bitten, b-but he a-almost died…." Fleur sobbed into Katherine's shoulder while Katherine just stared at her friend, almost crying herself.

"Was Bellatrix there?" Fleur nodded and Kathy's hold tightened around her. Footsteps came storming down the hall and Molly Weasley's wand was jabbed into Katherine's back.

"OUCH!!! What was that for?!" the minute Molly got a good look at her she set her wand down and enveloped Katherine in another bear hug.

"Oh Katherine darling, thank goodness you're safe!" Katherine hugged her back but didn't move a muscle afterwards. Molly let go just as Fleur looked at her with shock and confusion.

"Katherine?" luckily her hood was still up so her hair was hidden. Katherine turned and looked Fleur straight in the eye.

"Molly, I think it's time…" Molly looked at Katherine with shocked eyes but called in the rest of the family as Katherine regained her composure. Hermione, Ron, Harry, Ginny, Fred, George, Arthur, Tonks, and Remus all filed into the room quietly, not sure what was happening.

"Cecilia?" Ginny tried to run up and hug Kathy but Molly stopped her. Fleur took a good look at Katherine and her eyes bulged out at the sight of her.

"Y-You're…not Cecilia…" Ron looked at Fleur confused.

"What're you talking about Fleur? Of course that's Cecilia…"

"Look at her…" the whole group looked closely and pulled back yanking out their wands but Arthur, Molly, Tonks, and Remus stopped them.

"It's alright everyone, she's harmless…!" Tonks jumped in front of Katherine but was pushed carefully out of the way.

"Let them speak Dora…what's wrong kids?"

"Why is your appearance different from before?" Ron spoke anxiously but forcefully.

"Drop your wands and I'll explain everything…" no one moved.

"Very well, please sit down…"

"Who are you?!!!"

"Harry, Ron relax she's not a death eater!" everyone turned towards Bill, who was sitting up straight on the couch despite his injuries. Fleur ran over to him trying to make him lie back down but he resisted.

"Bill…vat do you mean…she eez not Cecilia…"

"She is Cecilia Fleur, but she's not who you think she is…"

"You mean she's someone else?" Hermione spoke up quietly.

"Yes Hermione…she's not what she appears to be, but she's not dangerous either."

"Then who is she?!!" Fred and George shouted glaring at Katherine, who stood rock still at their wands pointing at her face.

"If you'd please remove your wands from my face I'll kindly explain everything to you." Wands were lowered and everyone was seated while Katherine pulled off her hood showing more of her face and hair.

"Your hair…those eyes…your skin…" Ginny pointed out looking Katherine up and down all over.

"I'm sorry I deceived all of you, but it was the only way I could protect myself."

"From what?"

"Her family…" Tonks spoke up. Everyone looked at Katherine then at Tonks.

"Family?"

"Yes Ginny, I had to change my name and appearance so my family couldn't find me after I ran away, sixteen years ago."

"Sixteen years ago?! What happened? Did you get into trouble?"

"In trouble, more like I was the trouble." Katherine's eyes started watering up but she wouldn't let the tears fall.

"She was abused everyone, her family didn't want a daughter. They wanted a proper heir to take on the family name; Katherine was abused since she was old enough to walk and talk."

"Katherine? That's your real name?"

"Yes, and after my brother was born, my parents acted like I didn't exist anymore. Not that they paid me any attention to begin with but still…when I first met Dora I was three, two years later I took on a new name and was adopted by the Tonks family. It was the one place I could call home, along with Hogwarts I had a happy life from then on, until two years ago." Everyone thought for a moment then Harry spoke up.

"When the Dark Lord returned…"

"Yes, and no he likely doesn't know about me because I left just before he heard about the prophecy. I was kept locked in my room most of the time, barely going out when my parents weren't around. The house elves would sneak me food and let me outside so I could get some fresh air. I knew all the secret passageways in the house, so I had ways of sneaking around the house."

"You hated it…you hated living there, until you finally had the courage to get up and leave for good. Kind of a lot for a five year old to think about…"

"I was a lot like you Hermione, I was a child genius. I could read, write, walk, and talk, by the time I was a year old…"

"She was very smart, so smart I couldn't believe it when we first met." Tonks laughed.

"They abused you and they didn't acknowledge your intelligence? Sick…"

"It is Hermione, very sick…ever since I learned to do my own magic I would go see my brother every year on his birthday, until his third year when I started dating Charlie. Then after two years I saw him again, just after he'd received the mark."

"He's a death eater?"

"He had no choice, with our father in prison and our mother a wreck he had no choice but to join. I've protected him since birth, but I couldn't protect him from that snake…"

"What house were you in at Hogwarts?"

"Gryffindor, where the brave dwell at heart; I was lucky I didn't end up in Slytherin like the rest of the family. I was on the Quidditch team too…"

"What position?"

"Captain and Chaser…would've gone for seeker but thought it was better if someone else took it."

"I still don't trust her…" Ron spoke out so bluntly Hermione whacked him on the back of his head.

"Ron, she's explained it all in pure detail, how can you still not believe her?"

"Probably because I'm a Malfoy." This time all heads turned in shock.

"You're a what?!!" Harry stood up but was held back by Remus.

"A Malfoy…my real name is Katherine Elizabeth Malfoy."

"See?! I told you she couldn't be trusted…"

"Ron for God's sake she was abused by Lucius, Narcissa, Bellatrix, Rodolphus, even her own grandparents abused her!! If she'd planned on killing all of us she would've done so already." Bill stood up off the couch and walked over to Katherine placing a hand on her shoulder.

"How can you be so sure Bill?!" Harry still struggled in Remus's arms but couldn't get free.

"Because she's my cousin Harry! She came to me and my parents when she said she wanted to run away!! If she had stayed any longer they would've killed her!!! Tonks stood up angrily and walked directly in front of Harry, keeping really close eye contact.

"Does she have any proof?" Katherine moved the shoulder of her sleeve showing a scar on her back.

"I was four when I got this, Lucius caught me sneaking out in the garden, his temper got the best of him and I ended up with a fractured shoulder. I needed stitches, and after that I didn't leave my room for a month." The scar was nearly healed but it looked like a nasty piece of flesh that burned off. It was six inches long, and was sensitive to the touch.

"That's horrible…you were just a kid." Hermione's eyes were watering up, about to crack as Katherine pulled up her shirt and turned toward Harry.

"You don't have to trust me Harry, I can understand if you want nothing to do with me, but I'm nothing like the other Malfoys. I don't harm anyone unless it's necessary, and I don't judge people by where they come from or what blood they are, it doesn't matter to me." Katherine smiled slightly and placed a hand on Bill's shoulder; his body had a slight silver glow surrounding it and all of his wounds healed in seconds. Everyone but a few gasped at the sight as Bill's posture improved instantly and it looked as if he'd gained a godly body.

"Y-You…healed him………" Fleur could've fainted if she'd wanted; instead she just ran over and squeezed Bill tightly.

"Yes, and in case none of you noticed….I'm not an ordinary witch." This time all eyes were directed on Katherine and Tonks.

"What do you mean dear?" Molly asked holding onto Ron.

"She's……well uh……she's a……" Tonks couldn't get the words to come out right.

"I'm an enchantress…" some eyes looked confused but Hermione's eyes widened like saucers.

"An enchantress? Isn't that like a witch or something?" Hermione glared at Ron and smacked him again.

"Ron you arse an enchantress is the most powerful witch to ever live on earth!! But they're supposed to be mythical, or extinct I don't remember…"

"That's something you don't hear everyday…" Ron got another smack and Katherine just laughed.

"Hermione would you care to inform everyone more about enchantresses…?"

"Uh sure…enchantresses have such powerful magic they can perform any spell without a wand, potions, books, and are very intelligent when they're born. They're also called 'Daughters of Merlin', and there used to be many of them around but a thousand years ago, around the time Hogwarts was built, some dark wizards tried to use them in a war, which a few joined but others refused and died out because they used so much magic."

"But aren't they the most powerful beings here?"

"They are, but their bodies are weaker than ours which means if they use more magic than they can handle it could kill them. After the war the last of the enchantresses used every ounce of their magic to make sure that only one enchantress would be born every five-hundred years, which is about the time a war like the one we're in happens; and by the looks of things, the Malfoys must've had an ancestor who was an enchantress."

"Yep they did, I looked it up in some restricted files at the Ministry, and turns out the last one lived to be nearly two-hundred years old. She was the one that started the Malfoy clan to begin with. As Hermione's just said I do have a period of time whenever my body weakens, but it's only a temporary sleep…." Everyone looked at each other, this time feelings were swapped; Katherine was confused, everyone else seemed sad.

"What's wrong? Oh I almost forgot I need to speak with Albus where is he?" the looks got worse, now Katherine was really confused.

"Alright everyone, what's going on?" Tonks turned around to face Katherine, placing both hands on her shoulders, looking directly into her eyes.

"Kathy…while you were asleep, I'm sure you already saw but…the school was attacked while Harry and Dumbledore were out on business. The death eaters cornered Albus in the Astronomy Tower; he had Harry hide under his cloak…and Draco….he had to…"

"No….no Dora he didn't…." Katherine's eyes pleaded but Tonks shook her head.

"He was ordered to kill Dumbledore…but Harry said he choked, so Snape jumped in the way and…" Tonks's eyes watered up, she was pulled into Remus's arms and sobbed lowly into his shirt. Hermione started crying into Ron's shoulder; soon all but Katherine had saddened expressions.

"Snape killed him…killed his own master…" Katherine mumbled loud enough for all to hear, and just then it felt like a heat wave went straight through the room. Tonks's head snapped up and she placed a hand on both Kathy's shoulders trying to relax her.

"Kat relax, take it easy…" Katherine's eyes turned dark red and the whole room felt like an oven. "Katherine please…we're all as upset as you are about this…but there's nothing we can do about it now…" the room began to cool down and after a few seconds Katherine's eyes turned blue again.

"I'm going back."

"W-What…?"

"I'm going back to the manor…at the beginning of the summer." Everyone's eyes widened all across the room when it went back to its normal temperature.

"Katherine no it's too dangerous!!" Molly begged slightly.

"I have to Molly, I have to make sure Draco's alright. I can't risk going back to Hogwarts now that the Death Eaters have control over everything and everyone there."

"Yes we understand but you can't be sure it's safer there than it is here?"

"I know that Molly, but it's the only chance I have of protecting him. He needs me now more than ever…"

"But eez never met you…ow can you be zure?" Fleur spoke up after taking all of it in.

"He has met me, many times since he first started school. I have to go back; it's the only way I can keep him safe. Soon enough my charms alone won't be enough protection from the Dark Lord."

"Wait a minute…he's known you since he started school?"

"No Ronald, every time he's met me I've been in disguise as Cecilia Maloney, adopted daughter to the Tonks's. He probably doesn't remember me that well but I'm sure he'll know when I return."

"No you can't go back Kathy!! You could be killed!" Dora begged but Katherine just laughed a bit.

"Dora, you couldn't stop me when I became an Auror, you couldn't stop me from seeing Draco every year on his birthday, you couldn't stop me from seeing Lucius in Azkaban, and you can't stop me from protecting the only sibling I have left!"

"But Katherine think about Charlie…what's he gonna do if something happens to you?! What will any of us do without you?!" Katherine hugged Dora around the shoulders tightly, rubbing small circles on her back.

"I appreciate everything you've done for me Dora, you, Sirius, Aunt Andy, Uncle Ted, Remus, the Weasleys, all of you…you've spent most of your lives protecting me from the people that wanted to destroy me, but right now I have someone who needs me to protect him even if he doesn't realize it yet. I have to go back, I don't care what it takes but I'm not going to let my brother suffer under a man that wants to destroy all we've worked for." Dora returned the hug, soon after Katherine's little speech everyone joined in on the hug, crushing Katherine in the middle.

"Uh guys….crushing the mythical one here…." Everyone pulled away laughing and Katherine looked at Harry.

"As for you Mr. Harry James Potter, I will say that I won't stop you from making your own decisions about this war, but…if I find out that you've been captured by Death Eaters and can't find your own way out then you can just sit there and wait for death to greet you with open arms." She got in Harry's face with a fierce glare making him back away onto the couch. She laughed again and walked into the kitchen with Molly and Ginny to discuss future plans for her and Charlie's wedding despite the rush they were in for Fleur and Bill's wedding.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

So whatcha think? Think when Katherine goes back to Malfoy she should confront her family first or wait until after the meeting with the other Death Eaters? Can you guess where she's gonna hide out at in there? Will Draco finally realize he's had a sister all along?
