Chapter 4: a mission of life or death proportions and letters from family

Zyla stood at the window of her dorm when she heard it, "come to me child, come to me!" the voice rang in her head it sounded eerily familiar but not familiar at all to her at the same time. It was hissy like a whisper and cold and cruel like her voice when she was angered. She turned in the direction of her dorm door, the voice called again from down the hall, "Come here dear, I won't hurt you." The same cold cruel whispered voice. Zyla followed hoping this voice would leave her alone, "But I might hurt him, you don't know this man yet, but you will and when you see him…..kill him…understand?" before her stood a tall thin man with messy black hair his head hung slack against his chest so she couldn't see his face. "or I'll hurt your little friend.." the voice hissed again and she heard Teddy scream. "NO, ZYLA DON'T LISTEN TO IT, IT'S WANTED….. ….. DEAD FOR YEARS! DON'T KILL…. …!" the name of the man standing limply in front her was blurred and jumbled so much so that she couldn't catch it. Teddy sounded frightened and determined, she didn't like that, Teddy couldn't, no he wouldn't die on her behalf, she didn't deserve his courage or valor, she was…..a Malfoy….

Zyla awoke with sweat pouring down her pale face, "Teddy? I have to get…" she scrambled out of bed and got her dressing robe. She ran across the school to Gryffindor tower. At the tower entrance she met a prefect, "excuse me, my friend Teddy Lupin is up there will you get him for me, please?" the Prefect nodded with a kind smile and went in to the tower. A few minutes later Teddy stepped out in to the corridor with sleep in his eyes and his normally bright blue hair a dull shade of brown and messy. "Wha' Zyla?" he slurred rubbing his eyes. "I needed to see that you were okay, I had a nightmare and thought you were dead." She explained in a clam tone even though inside she was shaking with fear for her best friend's life. "Oh, well I'm alive aren't I? Don't worry Z all the bad guys are dead or in Azkaban, 'cuz Uncle Harry put 'em there." He said lazily scratching his head making his hair more of a mess. Zyla nodded her head thinking rationally again. " I know , I just got scared is all." She replied quietly, Teddy smiled a tired smile and hugged her tightly, "it's okay for you to be worried about someone Z, there's nothing wrong with that. It's been a rough night, hows about you go back to bed and I'll go back to bed and we'll talk more in the morning." Teddy was starting to slur his words again so Zyla nodded and gave him a brief hug good night and went back to the dungeons.

The next morning Scorpio swooped down next to Zyla during breakfast with a letter from Draco tied to his leg. "Oh, Drake replied finally!" she said to her owl opening her letter, a girl from her dorm asked who Drake was. "His real name is Draco but that's one of my nicknames for him, he's my big brother." Zyla replied to the girl, whose name was Petunia Parkinson. "Oh," she said looking disappointed.

The Letter read :

ZylaBell!

I'm so glad to hear everything has gone smoothly for you so far. Mum and Dad, Scorp and Astoria send their love. Be sure to write them as well okay? As for your question, I looked through the family tree and found no one with the last name of Riddle. The hat must have had you confused with someone else, it's an old hat it's possible it was a mistake. I'm sorry if I've disappointed you with that answer , but maybe with Mr. Potter's help we can find something (he seems to have knack for finding useful information.) I'm also very glad to hear that you have made a close friend so quickly. I'm sure he's just like his godfather, caring and compassionate to a fault. He'll be a great friend for you. Enjoy the rest of the semester and I expect to see you at Christmas, Zyla, if I don't I might have to come up there and get you. Just kidding, have fun and I love you

Your Best Brother,

Draco

Zyla smiled at the letter reading it through one more time to make sure she got everything . "I miss him so much." She whispered to herself, but Petunia over heard her, "Don't worry, Zyla, you'll see him soon enough." She said comfortingly, rubbing Zyla's back. Zyla just rolled her eyes and finished her breakfast in a hurried fashion, the Slytherins and Gryffindors had flying lessons today and Zyla wanted to stand next to Teddy.


Teddy heard his owl hoot loudly as he entered the Great Hall for breakfast that morning, "Prongs! Come here buddy!" Teddy called to the barn owl. It landed in front of him on the table and held out it's leg. "Johnny look! Uncle Harry wrote back." Teddy exclaimed to Johnathan Wood, his dorm mate. " What did he say?" Johnny (as the boy preferred) asked. Teddy opened the letter and read it to himself before reading it aloud for his friend.

My Blue-Haired Wonder Boy!

It's great to hear you made it into Gryffindor all the Weasleys and I are proud of you Teddy, although Victoire, Baby Freddy, and James miss you greatly and have each cried at one point do to extreme boredom and loneliness (I'm no Healer but I recommend writing them before they go insane). Well, I'm glad you made friends with that girl and I'm also glad she's a Slytherin maybe your guys' friendship will end that ever going war between the houses. Albus has recently learned how to walk and Lily is sitting up and crawling, as are Hugo and Roxy. Rose amazingly can already read simple books . Anyway, we all miss you and love you very much, Molly sends her love and kisses (you should probably be expecting treats from her soon) and you Grandmother does too, write to her will you? She and I miss you the most at the moment, a letter from her only grandson should cheer her up. We'll see you at Christmas, be good and have fun and remember you see anything suspiously you write me immediately. I love you Teddy, be safe

Your loving Godfather and Family

Harry

Teddy smiled at the letter and folded it up and put in his pocket, tears glistened in his ,today, cerulean blue eyes. "Hey, Mate what did he say?" Johnny asked, Teddy shook his head and smiled again, They really do make me feel like a part of the family don't they?He thought as he whipped the tears away from his eyes and chuckled at the irony of the thought.
