Sitting in Malfoy Manor I sigh as Andi and Cissa check my arm with a book on Blackfamily magic open between them "so do you think you can help?" I ask.
"Possibly but we need the dagger she used, that was turned into the ministry right?" Andisays.
Shaking my head I open my beaded bag calling the knife box out before holding it out to her"Kings let me take it when I was trying to figure out how to undo this".
Cissa nods taking the dagger out waving her wand over it causing it to glow a dark Black.
Andi starts flipping threw the book mumbling to herself eventually she points something outto Cissa who nods moving to her Potions Station and starts making something.
"This isn't an easy fix Hermione and you will have scares from this but we can heal it andhelp minimize the scar as much as possible" Andi says moving to sit by me.
"What are you leaving out?"
"We will need to stay in Black Manor, you will need to stay in the heart of the house until thisis done, you won't be able to leave the whole time and we are not sure how long it will take,
because you will need to do this a few times" Cissa says while stirring the Potion.
"What does it involve?" I ask nervously.
"Old magic we need to dig up our families blood magic book for exact information but wewill need to use our blood in removing it, I'm excited to read use it I think I'll read itafterwards see what forgotten magic is in it, according to our grandfather he claimed it wasthe last copy in the world" she says proudly*
Feeling a hand on my shoulder I look behind me seeing Hermione smiling sadly at thememory I was watching "we miss them".
"I know" I say sadly while pulling another with Hermione sitting beside me laying her headon my shoulder watching with me.
Stepping into Black Manor with my beaded bag filled with my clothes and books I followthe sound of Andi talking loudly.
Coming to a room set like a bedroom I find Andi holding three wine glasses while Cissaholds two bottles of whine "what's going on?" I ask confused.
Andi squeals dropping the glasses before rushing to me and pulls me into a hug "Hermioneyou're here, we can start the process come on" she says clearly drunk but cheerfully.
Following her dragging me behind her I see Cissa laughing while repairing the glasses "firststep is bonding together" she says pulling out a dagger sitting it on the table.
"That muggle thing of blood siblings friends do, you're familiar with it right?" Andi askssquealing.
Nodding I frown seeing Cissa pick up the dagger pricking her finger placing a few drops intwo glasses, Andi repeats it putting a few drops in the empty one and one with Cissa's blood
before she moves it to the side and hands me the dagger "your turn".
"Is this necessary?"
"Yes now come on" they both say loudly.
Sighing I prick my finger putting a few drops in the glasses in front of me before Cissa pullsone to herself and Andi grabs the other while handing me the one she had set aside "don'tthink about what to say the magic will guide you" Andi says.
"Let today be the start of a bond of friendship I offer my blood of The ancient and noblehouse of Black to show, I will never knowingly allow you to be harmed again I will protectyou when I can" Cissa says pouring a little wine into mine and Andi's glasses filling ithalfway before handing the Bottle to Andi.
"Let today be the start of a bond of family I offer my blood of The ancient and noble house ofBlack to show no matter where we may go we will always be seen as family" Andi says
filling mine and half of Cissa's then hands the bottle to me.
Frowning I take it taking a deep breath "Let today show a bond of friendship and family Iforgive you for all past misdeeds done to me, I accept you as you are with open heart andopen mind" I say while filling Cissa's glass.
Turning to Andi I start again "Let today show a bond of friendship and family I accept you asyou are with open heart and mind threw war and peace".
Sitting the bottle down I sit down and take a sip of the wine after Cissa takes a sip, she sitsher glass down crying and pulls me into a suffocating hug explaining what happened when Iwas being tortured and how she tried to help me the only way she safely could.
"Cissa your going to Suffocate her" Andi says laughing while pulling me away before she'scaught in a hug by Cissa*
"I think they learned that from Walburga, she has done that multiple times while trying toreassure herself we are okay"
Smiling I nod as she grabs one pulling it to us.
Hearing a crash I look up seeing Cissa smile with a peacock statue at her feet broken "oops"she says sweetly before breaking another.
"Why are you breaking them?"
"I always hated those, they where courting gifts from Lucius" she say before throw one at thewall laughing.
"I am starting to question if you are really as sane as everyone claims"
She hums looking at another statue "Hermione, I am a Black by birth all Black's are mad it'sthe price of our magic it shows up in many ways even Andi is mad, she never had a familiar
because she was sure all the familiars no matter who they belonged to where plotting againsther she even thinks the owls are".
"Your joking right?" I ask frowning.
"No watch her next time the post comes"*
Laughing I look at Hermione "she was watching the owl so closely I think even it feltuncomfortable with having her attention on it" she says before laughing.
"You don't fool me" I say mimicking Andi's answer when the owl hooted at her.
