CHAPTER 2

PALVER'S SECRET

-I shouldn't tell you about those things, but I will make sure you won't tell anyone, because I have unlimited access to your mind.

-Ok, let's hear , said Malfoy with a visible controlled angry.

-I am part of a top-secret faction , and our purpose will remain hidden, for now. But what you must know is that we have great powers, both technology and mind power, and magic is almost powerless against us.

-Then why do you need me?

-You see, my friend , we don't have that much power. We are limited by a plan which guides al our actions. And the advanced technology is just for our own protection. How could we possible resist to spells without knowing anything about magic?(At least, that magic you are learning about.)

-You want to say that you cannot cast any spell?

-Exactly. But I told you that we are protected by… laser shields. And casting spells is not a problem for me, as long as I have this wand with me.

Palver took his wand out of his pocket and showed it to Malfoy. It was a short shining wand, with some green reflections and which seemed to shiver.

-I have never seen such a wand before! What is it made from?

-It's made from metal and is full of very strong electrical charge. Furthermore, it answeres only at my command and is capable of almost everything,especially at harmfull "spells". The only exception is transmutation, because it has received some damage and the results can be a little… funny.

-Anyway, what can we possibly do? Do you think just a few persons like our group can cause any signifiant change?

-Of course. Any minor change can cause major effects. But I need you to protect me from sharp minds which can uncover my secret. Can you do that?

-I hope so. But I still don't understand how can you do magic without a normal wand and without knowing anything about it?

-It's quite simple. You see, magic is all about controlling powerfull energies, with a simple word. It's the same with us. Now, we are able to do it easily and with few words, but the effects are calculated by scientists and no unpredictable can happen. And we can also increase the power to use it in ourposes that no wizard can imagine.

-Then you must be even more powerfull than Dumbledore.

-In some way, yes. But as I said, we're mastering the same energies, with the ONLY difference that my wand needs electricity and has more power.

-Could I get a wand just like yours?

-I suppose not, but if the situation requires it , I'm sure you will get one.

-And…

-Wait a second! I think I feel the presence of some other minds!

His voice became a whisper and got stronger.

-Yes, there are three guys listening to my speech, and I will satisfy their curiosity…

He raised his wand and said : "freeze!", and the next second the door got blasted and after that the invisible cloak become a bunch of ice.

-Run! Yelled Harry and all three of them started to run back to their rooms, with the frozen cloak still hanging on their backs. The stretching ear was also frozen and broken into pieces.

-Wow! What was that? Said Draco enthusiastically. Did you get them ?

-No. And I don't understand why. They should be frozen by now. That invisible cloak shouldn't protect them against my ice ball, unless it was a little more special… Anyway, I didn't manage to find out who were they.

-I know who were. Our eternal enemies.

Harry Potter, is one of them. I told you before. He is one of our greatest enemy, and the only one who could stop us.

-So, he is aware of our plans. Those are not good news at all. The second one?

-Ron Weasley. A pathetic member of the Gryffindor house. Last few years he and Harry succeeded to defend the school against great dangers, but…

-Then he is not pathetic at all. From what I hear from you , I can see that you use to underestimate your enemies all the time. Be more careful and not so sure on yourself. And the last one?

-Hermione Granger, a mal-blood girl who is terribly proud of herself and usually, too clever.

-Is that so? You are going to fight against so well prepared students and you are saying it like they worth nothing. Honestly, Malfoy, if I were to choose my ally between you ad Harry, I wouldn't pick you, be sure of that.

-How dare you? Said Malfoy and tried to get his wand, but instantly, he felt his arm powerless, and that strange feeling again.

-Never try to do it again, my friend. You forgot that your mind is mine? Attacking me won't have any effect, but don't make me control you that much. I will be forced to damage your mind… in an irreversible way. Got it?

-No…Yes, my master.

-That's what I wanted to hear. Good boy! And started to laugh sarcastically.

-I will make sure you will pay for all this! Said Malfoy with a low voice.

-I am sure you will, but you won't succeed. Though I guess we will cooperate better if you try to listen to me. It is no pleasure for me to control you. Let's be friends, shall we?

-Maybe. But stop reading my mind and I will be more cooperative.

-As you wish, for now, it is done. But remember that we DON'T read minds, we are just analyzing feelings; we are not controlling minds, we are controlling just feelings, that's all. But trust me, it's enough. Now, that we're friends, let's make a plan. We cannot afford to let them tell somebody about our plans.

-By now, they've already made you popular in the Gryffindor quarters, be sure of this.

Let's hope they didn't tell anything to Dumbledore yet. We should try to get them expelled.

-Good idea, Draco. How do you suggest to do it?

-Aaa…wait a second. As I remember, in last few years, teachers had more than enough reasons to do that, but they didn't. It will be very hard.

-Anyway, my aim is not to expel students, but to try to control some influent teachers and let our organization fight Voldemort, and also help some mugles to get some of our powers, to defend theirselves.

-Do you mean mugles will have such powers without doing magic? Why? They shouldn't ever dream of such thing! You must not do this!

-Well, you see, Malfoy, magic, as you know it, is a lot more unstable and unpredictable than ours. All we are doing is completely safe and almost no risks assumed. And I didn't mention the fact that our energies are superior to yours.

-But I won't let you do that! It is…

-And how do you think you can stop me? With you stupid friends, and such talented enemies, you have no chance, my friend!

-Even so, I am going to try, and my father will…

-Do nothing, interrupted Palver. I will make sure of this. But if you really think there's a chance, so be it! Try, if you can. It will be an extra entertainment for me. Even we, the Foundation, must have fun sometimes.

-Then it's declared war between us, Palver. Beware!

-Don't worry. I'll be.
