Chapter 4
Kimbers P.O.V
I woke up the next morning feeling odd, sort of like I had forgotten something. The only problem was I didn't know what. I got up and got dressed in our uniforms, which I really hated. They were knee length plaid skirts that were our house colors and a button up white shirt with a black sweeter over the top, each sweater had our house crest on it also. Once Snape became headmaster, these new uniforms were brought into play. I'll have to admit I do like them better than the old ones though. At least now, our skirts aren't to our ankles. Once I was dressed I went over to the mirror in our dorm, and took out my wand, I used a spell to make the wand hot on the end but not where I hold it, then I wrapped pieces of my hair around it, to perfect my messy curls. Once finished my hair hung in tousled curls down my back. I barley wore any makeup, because I didn't really need it I only wore a little mascara to bring out my deep brown eyes. Once I was finished getting ready I walked down the stairs and found Draco in the common room waiting.
He and Blaise were sitting together discussing something. I walked over and Draco looked up, he pulled me onto his lap and planted a kiss on my lips, I wrapped my arms around his neck to deepen the kiss, Blaise then muttered " Get a room."
"We have one, just not it the pathetic school." Draco murmured.
"I didn't really want to know that." Blaise said disgusted.
"Well, you shouldn't have brought it up then." I smirked.
"Okay enough of this conversation, " He said, " Did you mail the letter to Lucius?"
"What letter?" I asked Blaise.
" The one that you were supposed to send about Potter not returning to Hogwarts."
" I don't remember that. Do you Draco?"
"No, I don't but I have been feeling like I have forgotten something all day though." He muttered.
" Well you were going to write a letter to Lucius, about Harry Potter not coming back to Hogwarts." Blaise stated.
"Um okay I guess I'll do that then, " I said. I got up off of Draco's lap and went and fetched a quill and a piece of parchment and wrote on it.
Dear, Lucius.
Sorry this took so long, me and Draco have most likely have had our memory Obliviated. We don't remember anything about on the train ride here. But Blaise Zabini, told us that we were going to send you a letter telling you that Harry Potter isn't returning to Hogwarts. And so far its true, I haven't seen or heard of him at all. If anything changes we will inform you. Also, if you have any ideas on how to get back at the person who Obliviated our memories, they will be welcome.
Draco & Kimber Malfoy
I sealed up the letter and told Draco " I'll seeyah in a minute, im going to go up to the owlery."
"Ill come to, I don't want you going alone." He said getting up. I sighed 'as always, overprotective' I thought. I grabbed his hand and Draco told Blaise that we would meet him for breakfast in a minute. We started walking towards the exit of the common room, then all of a sudden Pansy stopped us.
She looked at me and Draco. We new that she had wanted to say something when she found out about us getting married, but she wasn't able to in the Great Hall, and I went up to bed early last night so not then either, but now she was able to.
" Draco! I cant believe that you married her!" She screeched at my new husband.
"Well I did." He said calmly, flashing his platinum wedding ring, that had a saying on it, the same saying that was in our room.
Pansy pulled out her wand and pointed it at me, I smirked. I remembered Bellatrix and decided to act a little like her. " Ill handle this." I said brushing my fingers along Draco's chest. I noticed that Blaise had come to stand next to Draco, also they had both pulled out there wands anyways. 'Over protective fools.' I thought. But I love them.
I turned around and pulled out my wand.
"Stupefy!" she yelled. I moved a step to the left to dodge it.
"Oh so you want to play. . . ?" I hissed. I would have used Sectumsempra, on her but quickly, remembered that Draco had it used on him by Potter, and he still flinched whenever Snape used it. So I yelled, " CRUCIO!" she dropped to the floor in pain.
"Expelliarmus!" Draco yelled, then I took notice of my wand flying out of my hand. I turned around and looked at Draco, now holding two wands. " Draco?" I asked
"Not here, I would let you anywhere else, just not here." he answered. He gave me back my wand and I walked forward to take it I then turned around now standing next to Draco, and saw Pansy getting up, a little shaken but other than that fine.
"YOU! YOU LITTLE BEAST! YOU USED AN UNFORGIVABLE ON ME!" She screeched.
"Yes I am aware." I said calmly
" I'll kill you! You filthy little beast!" She yelled. Draco walked forward and pointed his wand at her chest. Then said, " If you ever threaten my wife, me or Blaise again, then I will personally have Fenrir Grayback come and take care of you for us." He didn't yell or scream when he said this, he was very calm, which made it ten times more scary. Her eyes widened and then she dashed up to the 7th year girls dormitories. Draco smirked and me and Blaise laughed. It was a good thing that us four were the only ones in the common room at the time.
Me and Draco then continued walking again to the Owlery to deliver out letter. Me and Draco got to the Owlery. I looked up and found Dutch almost instantly she was one of the two, only black owls. I said " Dutch come here." she flew down to me and landed on my shoulder. " Okay this is your first letter, I need you to take it to Lucius Malfoy, in the Malfoy Manor." I then tied the envelope on his leg. " Okay, Dutch make sure this letter gets to Lucius Malfoy only. Also, do not stop for anyone else." Draco told Dutch. Dutch blinked, in response but we new that he understood us. He then took off. I watched him out the window for a minute as he flew away, he was beautiful.
Me and Draco then headed to the Great Hall to join Blaise for breakfast.
Sidney's P.O.V.
I woke up at five a.m in blackness.
Getting up, I fell down back on my bed, tripping over my school books, realizing I would get nowhere in the dark. I reached for my wand in my drawer and whispered "Lumos."
My wand came to a glow like a flashlight, and I got up with no interest to change out of my pajamas and walked through the halls of the castles. Many thoughts filling my mind up, making me feel like I was about to explode. I paced through one hallway over and over again.
"Something troubling you?" Snape said, walking up to me with one eyebrow raised.
"Sorry," I said, stopping.
"I hope you enjoy your first two weeks here. In Detention," he said and walked off.
Great, just another great way to start out the year. Detention.
When the sun rose, I was already back in my room. I got ready by straightening my hair and changing into my school clothes. I looked at Kimber, she would wake up soon. Might as well not stay to get into a fight, so I headed to the Great Hall earlier than I would like to. But, luckily there was a few early risers like me, so I didn't feel so alone. I sat down at the Slytherin table alone and opened one of my school books.
It was one hour later before the whole Great Hall was filled with people. I was sitting by Draco and Blaise, Kimber was across from me.
"Did you take care of things?" Blaise asked.
"Yepp," Kimber replied.
"What "things"?" I asked, worried they found out I erased their memories.
"Nothing." Blaise snapped.
I looked at all three of them closely, they were giving me cold looks.
"Okay, what the hell! What did I do to you?" I asked frustrated.
"You know exactly what you did," Blaise answered.
"You were the first to eavesdrop on me and my friends," I defended.
"Your friends?" Draco laughed, amused.
"What? I cant have other friends than you guys?"
"We don't care about you having more friends Sidney, its the side that their on. Did you forget who you were? Their the enemy. I'd advise if you take their side, don't plan on us protecting you when he shows up for you," Kimber said, then got up and went for the exit, Draco and Blaise followed.
I couldn't think what to do. I didn't want to lose them, they were my true best friends. Being a Death Eater was my true destiny... or... was it.
I went to Charms class, which was one of my least favorite subjects in Hogwarts. I had this class with Ginny. We both sat down and talked until the teacher came out for the lesson. I didn't bother to pay attention though, I was too distracted. The words that Kimber said to me hung onto me like hooks.
Don't plan on us protecting you when he shows up...
I had to do something. I could never run away from Voldemort my whole life, nor could I fight him down. But one could, Harry Potter. That was it, something snapped. My whole misery about everything was forgotten.
I had to find Harry Potter.
After my classes were over I ran to my dormitory and took out a parchment and wrote:
Kimber Malfoy,
I'm sorry for betraying you and I hope one day we can still be friends when all of this is blown over.
I hope you and Draco the best.
I would tell you where I was going or who I was going with, but obviously you would tell Voldemort.
I don't fear the name.
Sincerely,
Sidney Black
I left it on her bed and ran to the Room of Requirement.
I went inside and slowly made my way through the junk, I was looking for something particular. I only heard rumors about it from Ginny but I knew I had to have some good technique from magic that was beyond me.
I found underneath a crown, that was on a tall pile of random stuff. It was a potion's book belonging to 'The Half-Blood Prince' who was obviously Severous. I thought it would come in handy so I took it.
And ran.
Kimber's P.O.V
Me, Draco and Blaise started walking to our class, we had Double Potions, the only reason that I got to be in there classes was because Professor Snape, said that if there was a O.W.L grade higher than exceeds expectations, than I would have gotten it. So he placed me in 7th year classes. We got to our class and us three sat together. Slughorn walked into the class room being as he is now the Potions teacher. And also our new Head of House, he was alright, but we still liked Snape better.
"Welcome class, today we will learn how to make Polyjuice Potion." Slughorn said.
" To bad we already know how." Blaise, whispered to me and Draco. As for us three we have used it enough times to get information out of people we were pretty much masters at it.
"Okay, open your books to page 77 and the ingredients are right there, you will not actually change into anyone. This potion will take at least one month to brew, so we will be working on this for a while." Slughorn said, " Well go ahead partner up into groups of two or three and begin."
Me, Draco and Blaise partnered up, so we could discuss some things. We started making it without even opening up our books, we pretty much had it memorized.
"Well, what are we going to do about Sidney?" Blaise asked us in a whisper.
" I don't know, I think that we need to inform Lucius, and tell him to pass it on to everyone." I murmured.
"I agree," Draco said, while holding my hair back while I stirred the potion.
" Well, then I will write a letter and then I will talk to Sidney." I told them still stirring the potion. I stood up straight. Draco let go of my curly hair, I then turned around to face them, " Okay, now we have to let it sit for a minute." I gestured to the potion.
" Well, why don't you guys totally catch me up to were you guys are. I only know what has gone on sense we have been to school." Blaise urged, leaning against the table.
Draco then started telling him what's been going on, starting when Regulus died. And ending at today. Then I noticed something, " Draco, Blaise, its obvious why she is doing this."
"Why?" they asked.
" Regulus, ever sense he died than she has been acting like this. Its because she wants someone to talk about it without really knowing the reason for it. And we couldn't do that for her. She wants people that will understand and talk to her without judging her."
"Well then if she thinks that we cant do that then she can become friends with the bloody Gryffindors." Draco, smirked.
"I agree with Draco." Blaise said
"Yeah, if she doesn't think we have sympathy than, let it be that way, we will show her none." I told them.
" Geez, Draco, how do you live with her without being murdered?" Blaise laughed. I flashed him a smile.
" With lots of caution.." Draco, grinned. Moving closer to me and wrapping his arms around my waist.
" I would never mistreat Draco." I laughed.
"Whats so funny?" Slughorn asked. Walking over to us, smiling.
"Blaise almost tripped." Draco lied.
"Well, merlins pants," Slughorn said looking at our potion. " Its magnificent! Not a single group besides yourself, has managed to reach this point. How did you manage?"
"Um, beginners luck, I suppose." I told him.
"Beginner luck," He scoffed, " Professor Snape, told me about your abilities, in potions, Mrs. Malfoy." He said and walked away.
"Well anyways. What class do you guys have next?" Blaise asked us.
" Um, a free period." Draco told him.
"Oh, me too." Blaise said. We finished brewing as much of the potion as we could and then moved our cauldron out of the way for the other classes. Then me, Draco and Blaise walked to the Slytherin Common Room to drop off our bags. I went up to the 6th year girls dormitory and found a letter on my bed addressed to me.
Kimber Malfoy,
I'm sorry for betraying you and I hope one day we can still be friends when all of this is blown over.
I hope you and Draco the best.
I would tell you where I was going or who I was going with, but obviously you would tell Voldemort.
I don't fear the name.
Sincerely,
Sidney Black
"THAT LITTLE BEAST!" I yelled. Luckily I was the only one in the 6th year dormitory. I ran downstairs and found Draco and Blaise standing by the fireplace. I handed them the letter.
"She has lost all of my trust. And I will not be-friend her unless she proves herself." I hissed. I grabbed a quill and parchment and wrote.
Sidney Black,
You have lost your friends trust, that includes, me, Draco ( don't say he isn't you friend) Blaise and when we tell her Pansy. A friendship in the future is very unlikely, seeing as you have betrayed us once, and how do we know that it wont happen again? Unless you prove your allegiances lie with your true friends then there is no more need for me to communicate with the enemy. I don't need any problems. Prove your allegiances and you may get your friends back. Also, I know for a fact that Regulus would never have betrayed his friends. One more thing. I found Kreacher.
Kimber Malfoy.
P.S. Draco and Blaise want me to tell you that, you made a horrible mistake.
I sealed up the letter and me and Draco went to the Owlery and found Draco's eagle owl, Eaves. Eaves was a white owl with black spots and bright yellow eyes. We then told him to take the letter and find Sidney and give it to her.
Sidney's P.O.V
I was at Godric's Hallow, automatically assuming Harry Potter would be here, but everyone assumed that so it would be really stupid of him to come here. But I had to start somewhere. It was cold, it had been snowing lately, almost Christmas time.
Suddenly, Eves, Draco's owl, came to me with a letter.
I took it and opened it, Inside read;
Sidney Black,
You have lost your friends trust, that includes, me, Draco (don't say he isn't your friends), Blaise, and when we tell her, Pansy. A friendship in the future is very unlikely, seeing as you have betrayed us once, and how do we know that it wont happen again? Unless you prove your allegiance lies with your true friends then there is no more need to communicate with the enemy. I don't need any problems. Prove your allegiance and you may get your friends back. Also, I know for a fact Regulus would never have betrayed his friends. One more thing, I found Kreacher.
Kimber Malfoy
I sighed and kept starring at the parchment. This wasn't supposed to happen. Envy filled all throughout my body, and I had a strong wish to kill something.
Kimber Malfoy,
I may have lost your trust, and Pansy isn't my friend, but I've gained an actual life beyond the broken pieces of a Death Eater that you call life.
Have fun getting Kreacher to talk, he'll only obey to his master. Me. Or unless it was Harry Potter. And if I've lost your friendship then fine. But im finishing what Regulus started.
Sidney Black
I scribbled on my parchment and stuck it to Eave's leg. Then told him to go back to his master.
After that night I set of to the ministry. It was my second guess. Another weird idea of mine but I had a hunch. I was looking around, trying not to seem easily noticed, but there was no sign of him.
When I was about to leave, a breakthrough of wizards rushed to the flu network. One of them seemed very familiar. A short witch with a big bow in her hair. I looked closer and saw a chain on her neck. The weird type of necklace flow out of her shirt but she quickly put it back in place. I immediately knew what it was, Regulus told me about it before.
Horcrux.
Kimber's P.O.V
Me and Draco, were walking along the edge of the lake. Talking, " Draco, do you think that we made the right decission, on the side that we are on?" I asked him.
" I do. But why are you asking?"
" Well I was just wondering."
"Do you not like the side that we are on?" He asked me.
"No of course I do, this is the side I would have choosen even if I hadn't met you." I murmured.
" Okay," He then pulled me over to a tree and we sat down underneath it. "Kimber, if you want out of it, than we can find a way."
"No, I like being a Death Eater. Unless you dont." I told him, staring in to his mesmerizing grey eyes.
"Okay." He then planted a soft kiss on my lips.
All of a sudden a letter landed next to Draco, he pulled away from me and looked up just in time to see Eaves, landing on the tree above us.
Kimber Malfoy,
I may have lost your trust, and Pansy isn't my friend, but I've gained an actual life beyond the broken pieces of a Death Eater that you call life.
Have fun getting Kreacher to talk, he'll only obey to his master. Me. Or unless it was Harry Potter. And if I've lost your friendship then fine. But im finishing what Regulus started.
Sidney Black
I took the parchment out of Dracos hand and flipped it over and pulled out a quill. Then I wrote.
Sidney Black,
It wont be to hard getting Kreacher to speak, he just adores, Draco's auntie Bellatrix. Also, I would watch yourself. Me and Draco, informed the other Death Eaters and the Dark Lord about your betrayal.
Kimber Malfoy.
"Eaves come here." He fluttered down to me and I tied the parchment onto his leg. "Im sorry for working you, but take this to Sidney." He then flew away.
"Where do you think she is?" Draco asked me.
"I'm not sure. But if she finds Harry Potter than she has information that we need," I mumbled.
We got up and walked back towards the castle to meet up with Blaise for our next class. Dark arts.
Sidney's P.O.V.
I read the letter that Eave's dropped in my hands. I had no more to say so I told Eaves to head back. That wasn't my life anymore.
I was standing outside of the Black's house. I followed them back here easily, but so many other Death Eaters were waiting outside as well. I put on my Death Eater ring, just to play the part. I haven't wore it since I left Hogwarts. A flash of green burned in my eyes and I saw Voldemort in my mind. I quickly shook it off and starred at the house once more.
"Fancy meeting you here," a deep voice whispered in my ear. I turned around and saw Fenrir Grayback. I screamed loudly and ran, probably the most stupidest idea I've had this whole time since I was caught easily in the clutches of Dolohov.
"You have something we need," he chuckled. I glared in response and he disaspearated with me.
I fell down into the Malfoy Manor. Looking up I saw Lucius, the most ugliest face I've seen in days. Other than Draco, I mean. He smirked at me and turned to Fenrir and Dolohov. "Put her in the dungeon," he ordered. They both took each of my arms and led me. "Since when did you get a freakin dungeon? You creep," I yelled at him. Lucius rolled his eyes and walked upstairs.
Kimber's P.O.V.
Me, Draco and Blaise were sitting in the Dark Arts class. Being taught by the freakin Carrows. Amycus and Alecto. And lets just say that they were the stupidest Death Eaters of all. " Okay, today we will be dueling!" Amycus said. .
"Everybody pair up!" Alecto yelled.
Me, Draco, Blaise and Pansy decided that it would be best if we paired up with our friendships. Because the Carrows didn't care what spells we used, the only one we werent allowed to use was ' Avada Kadvra.' So I paried up with Draco and Blaise paired up with Pansy. Of course the Carrow's wouldn't allow anything bad to happen to us four, seeing as we are Death Eaters, or soon to be Death Eaters. And well the Dark Lord wouldn't like it if we were killed. But we still didn't want to take the chance.
"Okay, who's gonna go first?" Alecto asked.
" We will." Blaise and Pansy said.
They walked up onto the platform and took their positions.
" Serpensortia!" Blaise yelled at her. And a snake appeared, moving towards her.
"Confrigno!" She screeched. The snake burst into flames.
"Expllariumas!" Blaise yelled back, Pansy's wand flying out of her hand.
"Good, very good," Amycus praised Blaise.
Blaise smiled and whipped his wand back into his pocket, and walked off with Pansy. Other people started dueling, after the fifth one me and Draco were up.
We used spells that wouldn't really hurt one another, we used ones such as, 'Wadiwassi, Stupefy, Avis and Opugno, Draco used Stupefy once more and I flew back and bashed into the window and fell to the ground, I whimpered in pain and Draco ran over to me. " Mr. Malfoy!" Amycus yelled. " I don't care if that is your wife! You shall not attend to her."
"You want to bet!" Draco, hissed.
" LEAVE HER THERE!"
"NO," Draco yelled. " She is my wife. And Amycus, It isn't smart of you to threaten me or my wife. You do know my auntie." Draco threatened, Amycus's eyes widened. He stepped away from us, probably remembering the time he was tortured by Bellatrix.
"Class dismissed."
At night me and Draco were sitting alone on the couch in the common room. "I can't wait for Christmas break. Cant take another minute in this pathetic school," Draco said to me. "Yeah," I mumbled.
I was enjoying Hogwarts a lot though, I was the best in every class and most of the professors liked me. The best part was being with Draco, Blaise, and Pansy. It was nice to be away from all of the Death Eaters, for a while. Yeah they were all like family but they eventually got quite annoying!
Sidney's P.O.V.
The air around me seemed to get colder and colder by the minute and it had only been one night. They haven't tortured me yet but im expecting them to. Unless their just waiting for Voldemort to come and kill me off himself.
'Just kill me now'
I thought to myself. Finish me off before I do something really stupid.
I looked down at my Death Eater ring, it felt like it was burning my finger off. I could tell the Dark Lord was near. The gate opened up and I was released from the chains which dragged on my feet and hands. I was forced to bow down to the Dark Lord and then, it was silent.
I glarred up at that snake-like face, wishing he was dead by now.
"Where is Harry Potter?" he asked finally.
"I dont know," I said easily.
"Crucio!" he yelled, his wand pointing at me directly.
I screamed out in pain, and that... that was just the start of it.
Kimber's P.O.V.
Me and Draco sat on the train next to Pansy and Blaise. "I hope you like it," Blaise said to me as I opened his Christmas present. Inside was a tiny black mirror, with snakes on the rims of it, probably from Borgin and Burks. "I love it!" I smiled, hugging Blaise tightly. "Now open mine!" I said exicitingly.
He did as I said and opened the neatly rapped present. " Its amazing!" He told me. I got him a pocket knife, with his initials carved into it, it was silver and green, and lets just say that they were hard to find. He then gave me a big hug. I looked over to Pansy and said, " Here open mine." I handed her the present. She unwrapped it and gasped, " Its beautiful." She sat there staring at the beautiful silver necklace. It had a snake charm on the end, the eyes of the snake were a beautiful emerald green and I thought that she would love it, and I was right she did love it. " Thank you so much," She got up from her seat next to Blaise and gave me a big hug. " Well here is yours," She said, she then handed me a small box, I opened it and pulled out a thin little charm bracelet. I held it up and stared at it mesmerized, " Wow!" was all that I could say. " It adds a charm to itself whenever you accomplish something in your life. You see, it has a snake, for being sorted into Slytherin, and it has a heart, with yours and Dracos, initials in it, that is because you got married."
"Its awesome," I gave her a big hug.
" Here is yours Draco," she said. He opened it up and pulled out a furry brown wallet with fangs. " Nobody except you can get into your wallet." Pansy mumbled. " That's way cool!" he said " Thanks" He then gave her a hug, much to my dismay. " Here Draco," Blaise said, he handed him a gift. Draco opened it and pulled out a moleskin pouch. " Ive always wanted one of these, Thanks!" Draco said, he grinned. And shook hands with Blaise. " Here you guys go," Draco handed Blaise and Pansy both a gift, they opened them and Pansy said, " Wow, its perfect!" He had given her a bracelet to match the necklace that I gave her. She then gave him a hug. Then Blaise said, " Thanks, I definatly needed that!" Draco had given Blaise an enchanted Razor. We sat there for a while talking then the train finally reached platform 9 and ¾. Me, Draco, Pansy and Blaise got our stuff and got off the train, we exited the platform together and then said goodbye until term continued. " Finally were alone," Draco mumbled.
" Why do you say that?" I asked him.
" Because now im alone with you, and now I can give you one of your many Christmas gifts." He then gently pushed me against the wall we were standing by, then kissed me. I wrapped my hands around his neck and started kissing him back. Then Draco pulled away. He turned around holding one of my hands, keeping me behind him, I noticed that he stood a little protectively. Then a man said " Sir, would you mind if you and you girlfriend, didn't snog like that in public, it isn't right, there are children around. Also how old are you?"
" 17." Draco told him.
"And how about you girlfriend?"
"16."
"Well teenagers shouldn't act like that."
" Well its not up to you, and also she isn't even my girlfriend," Draco started, but the man quickly cut him off.
"Not your girlfriend? This isn't good sir," then he looked at me, " Ma'am please come over here with me."
" No, I will not. And you really need to let people finish speaking," I threw my attitude at him, " We are married. "
"MARRIED!" He looked shocked
"Yes, and its not your business." we then walked away from him.
"God, people these days. . . ." I mumbled.
Sidney's P.O.V.
Day 2, I layed on the cold stone ground. Feeling nothing in my body, like I was petrified but, my mind was still working. It seemed like a miracle but when I couldn't feel my body, it didn't seem like such. I waited for the end to come, but it wouldn't.
The two words I was wanting to hear so badly, Avada Kadavra. But, to my dismay it didn't happen.
The doors opened with a creak and I looked up with my eyes, seeing none other than Draco Malfoy. Kimber just barely walking up to the side of Draco.
I barely moved my lips to say "What happened to your face Draco?...oh...wait its always been like that," I mumbled.
" Haha very funny." He said to me.
Kimber ran into the dungeon and kneeled down besides me. " Sidney, me and Draco are the only ones home, we found your wand." She said handing it to me, " Take it and leave! Hurry me and Draco, will find a way to cover for you just go!" Kimber rushed me, i got up and ran, out of the dungeon. Then ran through the house and out the door. I disapperated to a forest that me and Regulus had once visted, it was the first thing that popped into my mind.
'Why had she helped me?' I thought to myself. I sat next to my favorite tree that me and Regulus always sat by and talked. I ran my hand through my hair, it just seemed like she hated me. But, I guess I was wrong. And I felt happy for once. I smiled to myself and looked at my wand, it looked a bit demented since it took Lucius a large amount of force to take it from me. I made a protective force around me where no one could see or hear me. Then, I fell into a deep sleep to regain my strength.
Kimber's P.O.V
Me and Draco had gotten home for Christmas break, we were home for about two days when we over heard Lucius and Fenrir discussing a prisioner. We kept listening and found out it was Sidney. When everyone was finally gone one day we decided that we would let her escape. We ran down into the dungeon, but as we were going down there i saw her wand, i grabbed it and decided that she would need it, we finally got down to the dungeon. Draco opened the dungeon door and walked in, i followed him in slowly and then saw her on the floor. She saw us and mumbled "What happened to your face Draco? . . . Oh. . . wait its always been like that."
"Haha very funny." He then mumbled.
Even though we had a fight, it was still hard to see her lieing there. I ran over to her and kneeled down beside her. " Sidney, me and Draco are the only ones home, we found your wand." I said handing it to her, " Take it and leave! Hurry me and Draco, will find a way to cover for you just go!" I told her and she ran.
I stood there wondering for a minute, " How are we going to cover for her?" Draco asked me. I didnt even answer him i just ran up the stairs and i heard him follow, i made it up into my room and pulled open a hidden drawer in our dresser. I grabbed the Felix Feleces and told Draco, " I bought this the day that you got me Dutch, drink some of it. With the luck, they will believe whatever story we tell them. " I handed it to him and he took a sip, then he handed it to me and I did so too.
We both drank the Felix Feleces and put the cap back to save the rest.
"With our luck they wont even notice she's gone," Draco said.
"Seriously hope so," I replied.
Then, Lucius, Narcissa, Bellatrix, and Greyback came back.
"Hello, Dears," Narcissa said to me and Draco.
"Mum, I think your "prisoner" escaped, I heard you were keeping someone locked up, but when we went to see who it was no one was there," Draco said.
"She escaped?" Lucius snarled.
"Who was she anyways?" I played along.
"No one," Narcissa said.
Then, all of them walked out of the room looking ferious, except for Narcissa.
"Well that was easy." Draco mumbled.
I ran up the stairs and into our room, then I grabbed a piece of parchment and a quill.
I then wrote,
Dear Sidney,
Your very lucky that they believed us. They were furious when Draco told them, but they believed our lie. Keep running, find somewhere safe. Dont reply back.
Kimber Malfoy.
P.S. I also think that Bellatrix has disowned you from the family. Keep away from her then, she will try to kill you. And we wont be able to stop her.
I sealed up the envelope and opened our window and called for Dutch, he came in and i gave him the note and told him to take it to Sidney, he did as i said and left.
All of a sudden Draco sighed, I turned around and saw him standing there looking at me.
Sidney's P.O.V.
I got Kimber's letter yesterday, and wrote back.
Dear Kimber Malfoy,
Thanks, I owe you.
And I'm back at Hogwarts, so theres no need to run anymore.
Things are...well, you'll see for yourself.
Sidney Black
I was reading the Potions book I found in the Room of Requirement.
'Sectumsempria for enemys'
"Already know that one," I mumbled, thinking of Draco then. I was sitting in the Slytherin common room, waiting for everyone to return, today was the day that everyone was supposed to get back. I got up and started pacing by the fireplace. After about an hour, the common room door opened, i looked up and saw Pansy walk in. " Pansy, " I mumbled "Is Draco, Kimber and Blaise here yet?" I asked her.
She looked at me and said flatly " Duh, there coming in, in a minute" Then she walked up to the 7th year girls dormitories. I wanted to put on a spell on her, but decided if I was going to get on Draco and Kimber's good side I probably shouldn't.
They arrived 20 minutes after, looking at me flatly. I closed the book and kept it in my reach. "Hey guys," I said. "Hey," they both replied. "Listen, Im sorry for everything and I just want to be friends with Neville and Luna and Ginny without your input, but I also want to keep my best friends," I said. Draco, Blaise, and Kimber looked at each other and then back at me. Then Kimber said, " Okay, thats good. But you just have to prove it to us."
"How?" I asked
"Just dont tell them any of our secrets. . . and i mean any of them! "
"Okay, i wont."
"Okay, well were a little busy at the moment." Kimber told me, then her and Draco, walked out of the common room.
"Im glad that your talking to us again." Blaise mumbled.
" Yeah me to even though i had those other friends i was still lonely."
"Um, so i heard about Regulus. . . " Blaise said.
"Oh, yeah." was all that i said.
"Im sorry, " Blaise murmured giving me a hug.
We just sat there in silence for a little while until Kimber and Draco returned. Draco sat down on the opposite side of me than Blaise was, and Kimber sat next to him, she layed her head on his shoulder and i sighed, whishing that Regulus was still here.
But all in all, things were good.
For now.
