The Grindelwald Legacy

Tiff, my favourite person, keep those reviews coming, you encourage me.

dolly heat, she did notice, but with all that was happening it was only a fleeting thought, then Severus� rescue overshadowed any attraction she felt at the time.

Barbie Malfoy, sorry for keeping you waiting. I want them together as well, but Severus refuses at the moment. He�s already struggling with his growing desire for her, and the fact she is still underage in the wizarding world. The fact she is perfectly legal as a muggle holds no sway with him. But it will happen, eventually. He�s whispering in my ear right now to tell you to be patient.

Chapter 35

Lucius Malfoy meanwhile, was most displeased with his son. �You foolish boy Draco, that was no Mudblood.� He said, scowling at the defiant face of his son.
�Well it�s hardly my fault if she acts like one father. The stupid chit dresses like a muggle, and speaks like one, she even tried to shake my hand. Only muggles do that.�
�Muggles and those currently in favour with our Lord.� Severus hissed, glaring at the younger Malfoy. �I bid you good day Lucius. I trust you will be discussing this further, once the two of you are safely back at the Manor. It would not do to alienate Miss Grindelwald at this stage.�

Turning, Severus left the shop in a swirl of robes, leaving a rather irate Lucius to urge his spoiled and sulking son to hurry up with his purchases, while hoping for the opportunity to meet Lucy again before leaving the Alley, and doing some major damage repair.
Lucy meanwhile was still ranting about the little blonde twerp. �He really got my back up, I mean, who the hell does he think he is?� She complained for the umpteenth time to the others as they entered Madam Malkin�s. The truth was, as annoyed as she was with the Malfoy�s she still could not help but remember how the younger one was eyeing her up before he turned nasty. And she did find him pretty attractive. His father even more so, in an arrogant, snooty kind of way. But when Severus came to her rescue Lucy could have melted. To her he had come forward like an avenging angel to save her, and had it not been for the fact she was so het up at the time, she would have pounced on the dark haired wizard there and then and snogged him half to death.
Ron gave her a nudge, wondering at the odd, glazed look in her eyes. �Hey Lucy, you alright?�

�What? Yeah, just thinking about the book shop.� She said dreamily, earning herself more odd looks from Ron and the others.
Molly finally agreed to let the four sixth years head for Fortesque�s ice cream parlour, while she dragged a complaining Ginny off to find dress robes.
Lucy wanted to know why almost everything available to eat and drink involved pumpkins. �Pumpkin pasties, pumpkin juice, pies, soup and stews. What is it with wizards and bloody pumpkins?� She demanded.
�Dunno, but it�s not that bad.� Ron said tucking into a dish of pumpkin ice cream.
�Well I�m sick of it. It�s all they ever give me to drink at Hogwarts, and grans always trying to get me to drink the blasted stuff. I don�t mind it now and again, but not all the time. Hey, can any of you lot apparate yet. I asked gran to teach me but she said I have to be seventeen.�

�You do, but we�ll be learning how to apparate this year. Someone comes from the Ministry, but we can�t apply for our licences until we are of age.�

�That�s damn daft.� Lucy grumbled when Hermione explained. �If we can learn to do it properly, why can�t we do it without being pulled along by someone else? We can fly broomsticks and walk through fireplaces, I don�t see what difference it makes.�

�Because you can splinch when you apparate if you don�t know what you�re doing.� Hermione told her knowledgably.
�Splinch, what�s that?�
The others explained, giving Lucy a hilarious vision of half a person appearing somewhere.
�It�s not so funny of it happens, I�ve heard it can be extremely painful.� Ron said, eying the half dish of chocolate ice cream still in Lucy�s dish. �Do you want that? Anyway, how come you�re not buying your school stuff?�
�Yes I do.� She told him, pulling the dish towards her possessively. �And I�ve already got everything. Plus your dad took me to London to last week to get� well, other things.�
�Oh yeah. You got him that little renivasion thing. He never takes his eyes off it, mum got in a right strop when he brought it to the dinner table.�
�It�s a television Ron. I want to know why it works when other muggle electronics don�t.� Hermione said, looking pointedly at Lucy.
�Ah yeah, but you know, they come up with new stuff all the time. Something was bound to work eventually.� She answered, hoping they would buy her excuse.
�No.� Hermione argued. �Magic interferes too much, it�s just impossible.�

Lucy sighed. �Look, I�m coming back to that house with you lot for dinner and tea, if you promise not to tell, I�ll explain when we get there, okay?�
She barely had time to remove her coat before they ushered her into the living room, demanding she tell them the reason the TV worked in a magical environment.

�Promise not to think I�m a freak first or I wont tell you.� Lucy insisted. �Too many people already know, and when it happened in Romania things got out of hand.�
Too curious to argue, they promised, fascinated when Lucy pulled the ipod from her pocket and switched it on. Hermione and Harry listened first, followed by Ginny and Ron.

�So tell, how come it works?� Harry wanted to know.
�Snape said it�s mind magic or something. Gran said I inherited it from my dads side of the family. I kind of wish it to happen and it does.�
�Professor Snape knows about it? And you can make music players and small televisions work? Anything else?� Hermione asked eagerly.
�Yeah, all kind of things. I do magic better with my mind than with a wand.�

�What, any magic?� Harry asked.
�Well I don�t know about potions, but charms and stuff, yeah. I can change how I look, others too. I did it to Snape.�
�You never did. And he didn�t kill you?� Ron said amazed.
�I only made his hair less� greasy, and his skin a bit better. He tried to change it back but I wouldn�t let him.� She giggled.
�What do you mean you didn�t let him?� Ginny asked.
�I just willed the changes to stay, and they did. He looks a lot better for it too.�
�Wow! Can you make my�� Ginny leaned over to whisper in Lucy�s ear.
�Probably, but I�m not gonna. Your brothers would probably kill me.�

Ginny sat back and pouted while she looked down at her still developing chest. �Not even a little bit.�

�No!� Lucy and Ron said at the same time, Ron suddenly registering what Ginny wanted.
�I wonder if there�s anything in Hogwarts library about mind magic.�
The boys looked at Hermione and groaned. �Hermione, we have NEWT�s to study for, isn�t that enough?� Ron complained. �Harry and me aren�t nearly ready, you have to help us study.�
�I don�t think I�ll ever be ready, there�s too much to learn and I�m barely scratching the surface. Plus I want to try and carry on with my normal studies online if I can. How am I supposed to keep up?� Lucy said despairingly.
�Online? You mean you have a computer that�s up and running?� Hermione asked flabbergasted.
�Yeah, but I�m not having much success finding someone willing to take me on with internet learning. How do I explain that I can�t come to a normal high school because I�m enrolled at a magic one? Plus I don�t have a valid address to give them, no ones heard of Hogsmead. They�ll think I�m nuts. I�ll never get to university at this rate.�
�But don�t you want to work in the magical world? There�s all kinds of great jobs available here.�
�Yeah, but I want to be a vet, work with animals. Dragons are cool, but so are dogs and cats. Then again Charlie said there�s all kinds of interesting animals in the magical world too. I don�t know, it�s all getting more and more confusing, and I want to be near gran, she�s� not well.�
The joyful mood abated as Lucy�s eyes became wet. She rubbed her eyes on her sleeve and got to her feet. �I need to use the bathroom, where is it?� She asked, sniffing and making her way to the door.
�I�ll take you.� Hermione told her, standing and heading through the door along with Lucy.
�How ill is she Lucy?� Hermione asked once they were ensconced in the bathroom.
�Very. Gran gave it some fancy name, but it means she hasn�t got long. It�s not fair Hermione, it�s not. Sixteen years I�ve longed for someone to find me, and now they have and she�s being taken away.�

The two girls hugged each other while Lucy cried, her heart breaking. Hermione cried with her, but did not know how to console her knew friend.

They stayed that way for several minutes before there was a knock at the bathroom door.

�Lucy, the greasy git�s here to see you.� Ron�s voice whispered from the other side of the door.
�The what?� Lucy asked, pulling off some loo roll to wipe her nose.
�Professor Snape Ron, and we�ll be down in a minute.� Hermione called back.
�Whatever, just hurry, you know what he�s like if he�s kept waiting.�
Lucy looked at her face in the mirror. �God look at me. My face is all puffy.�

Hermione stood beside her. �Mine too. Can you� you know?�
Both girls smiled when the puffiness disappeared, along with the redness round their eyes. �Thanks Hermione, you know, for letting me� �

�It�s alright, what are friends for? Now go on before he comes up here looking for you.�
Lucy gave Hermione one last hug then ran from the bathroom and down the stairs. She found Severus in the kitchen, a cup of coffee in front of him and Molly Weasley trying to persuade him to have something to eat.

�Hi Professor. Oh and thanks for getting me out of that spot today, those two prats were� �

�The elder of those two �prats� as you call them, happens to be one of the most influential figures in the magical world, as well as being rather prominent in the order of high-ranking death eaters. What on earth did you do to get them both so riled up this morning?�
�Me? It was them. All I said was hi, and that younger one went all shitty on me. Until I spoke he was eyeing me up.� She said indignantly. �Then the one I assume is daddy, came along and wouldn�t let me leave, and he poked that snakes head cane thing in my face.�
�Well the younger Malfoy will most likely be decidedly more civil the next time you meet, and I expect a certain cordiality to exist between the two of you. I also expect you to curtail the use of foul language whilst in the presence of adults.�

�You have to be kidding me. No way Professor. About Malfoy I mean, I�m sorry for swearing.�

�You will be amiable to him Miss Grindelwald, regardless of your true feeling towards the boy.�
�I will not, you can�t tell me who to like Professor.�
�I can when your very existence depends on it Miss Grindelwald, and believe me, it does. The Dark Lord is keen to have an alliance between the two of you, and since you currently hold his interest, I suggest you bite your tongue and do as I say. I have already spoken with your grandmother and the Headmaster, they are both in agreement with me over this. You must at least feign a reasonable amount of fealty with Draco Malfoy. The boy�s existence is as much in the balance here as your own. I can tell you no more.�

�Great!� Lucy threw herself onto a chair and banged her head on the table.
