The meeting between Lucius and Ramona is taking place in Knockturn ally. Lucius has booked a meeting room at a pub. Ramona not wanting to wear her school robes ends up borrowing a dark green robe ensemble from her father, magically making the robes and pants fit. Ramona and her father don't particularly have the finances to waste on extra clothes.

Being a werewolf has caused quite a few unexpected costs, the cost of moving when the local muggles get suspicious. Ramona has moved quite a lot in her short life. Walking down Knockturn ally is not quite what she thought it would be, for she was expecting the street to creep her out. When she starts walking down the street though, she realises she is creeping everyone else out. They know. How, for it will be good to stop them knowing. They know for they are dark or creature themselves, after all these years you're still painfully naive.

Ramona growls at Moony rather annoyed.

"RAMONA, Merlin it's been a while! How have you been?"

Ramona tenses, hating being noticed. The person that recognises her is Mary. After having a quick conversation with Mary she then shakes her off in order to get to the meeting. It isn't until Mary is out of eye sight that Ramona remembers she has a glamour charm on and that Mary was able to see through her glamour.

Part Banshee, YOU didn't think of telling me before, I hate you. Hate you right back. You just had to work for Dumbledore didn't you. He let us study! HA, so what.

Ramona grumbles 'I hate you' under her breath.

"You love me, admit it. Follow me to the meeting room," announces Lucius.

Ramona sniffs slightly making sure it's actually Lucius then follows him into a meeting room. After Lucius orders drinks he put wards to protect their conversation.

"Have you read today's paper?" asks Lucius.

Ramona shakes her head. Lucius removes the paper and places it in front of her, Pureblood privilege and what should be done about it. Lucius scrunches the paper and throws it in disgust.

"Unintelligent mudblood shouldn't be taken seriously. Lies, all lies. Privileged indeed!" says Lucius then scoffs.

Ramona raises her eyebrow in surprise and smirks, "Are you implying you're not?"

Lucius scowls annoyed, "You're so naive, when the disgusting mudblood writes purebloods are privileged you know what she is insinuating! That I became privileged just because I was born what I am and NOT because my ancestors worked hard for it. It isn't privilege, its my RIGHT! MY ancestors built the magical world. IT's MY BIRTHRIGHT, not something I don't deserve! I shouldn't have to hold their hand and teach them how to survive in MY society when they don't even care about magical customs. IF you are magical and poor it's YOUR fault and not mine, I'm not responsible for laziness."

"You truly believe that don't you? Such hatred you hold, what has the poor ever done to you?" asks Ramona, shifting uncomfortably in her seat. Ramona is regretting this meeting already.

Lucius's eyes soften realising who he is in company with, "Miss Lupin, there are ways to gain finances easily. I can show you how ... all legal, of course. I doubt you would want to gain finances any other way."

"I do want to work, what exactly do you have in mind? If it has anything to do with Werewolf packs, I'll decline. Dumbledore tried that with me, but I'm refusing."

Lucius's mouth twitches in amusement, "Refuse Dumbledore? Now that is surprising."

Ramona snorts, "I'm not his puppet, he doesn't exactly know I'm refusing though. I'm just going to lie."

"Why lie, why not actually meet them? It may open your eyes to reality. Werewolves treat each other fairly well you know. They protect their families and cubs quite ruthlessly. They are not what you have been brainwashed to believe at school. A lot of the so called light community discriminate werewolves and make up lies. For example, are you aware you can have children?"

Ramona's heart skips a beat, "Trully? ... without harm? I don't believe that."

"Of course! The lie was spread to decrease Werewolf numbers, the ministry is against population increases in the Dark creature community and they've brainwashed the magical community that this is a good thing. It's so supposed Dark creatures won't take over the ministry and why they perpetuate the violence of Vampires against Werewolves. The goal? Distraction and destruction of the general populace of anything the ministry has deemed Dark."

Ramona bursts out laughing, "Wow, you've been sniffing too many potions it seems."

Lucius frowns, "I'm no conspiracy theorist, I actually work in the ministry. Why hasn't it crossed your mind I might know what I'm talking more than you do? Look into what Umbridge is suggesting."

Lucius leans in and grabs Ramona forearm, "I'm not your enemy here, I like helping others that are disadvantaged by the ministry."

Using his other hand he grabs documents in his pocket and hands them to Ramona.

"This meeting is at an end, read the contract and get back to me. Lovely to see you again Miss Lupin."

Ramona curls into a ball and tears slightly fall down her face. Ramona angrily wipes her tears, angry at her weakness. After years of believing children isn't a possibility she is crying with relief that perhaps one day she may be able to be a mother.

Remember what you are Ramona, I'm the best you're ever going to get.

Ramona's body shakes in anger and her claws come out. With her claws she destroys her room from top to bottom smashing everything in her sight.

I need a fight
I've got you in my sights
Only one of us will make it out alive

I'm turning into a monster
