Under Moon
and Sun
Part 5: A
List of Names
Draco groaned and tried to roll onto his side, to meet the
resistance only another body could cause.
His eyes snapped awake, the pain in his head momentarily forgotten as he
tried to remember what had happened the previous night and how he came to be
lying on one of the couches in the chamber of secrets with another persons arm
thrown over him. A slight shift of his
hips proved the gender if not the identity of the boy behind him. All the thinking was making his head hurt, so
he closed his eyes and sank back into blackness, resolving to solve the mystery
when he woke next.
He didn’t know how much later it was when he woke next, but
his bed mate was still there. So,
unfortunately was a very amused looking Harry Potter. Grinning, the other boy got up and took the
two steps over to kneel on front of him.
Then he handed him what, at that moment in time, Draco would gladly have
traded his soul for; Hangover Potion. He
gulped down the contents of the bottle and closed his eyes with a sigh of
relief as his headache began to recede.
Slowly so as not to disturb the boy behind him, he rolled over and
looked at Blaise Zabini.
Still feeling slightly ill, the blonde boy gently moved out
from under Blaise’s arm and stood up.
His arse hurt and he couldn’t remember a thing after… ah the fire
whiskey. Harry motioned the naked boy to
follow him over to the potions corner, still grinning. “What happened?” he asked as soon as they
were far enough away to avoid waking the sleeping boy.
Draco shrugged. “I
tried explaining to him why you were upset about Granger. I didn’t have much luck, but at some point
Blaise broke out a bottle of fire whiskey.
I don’t remember much after the… forth glass and nothing after the
fifth.”
Harry grinned. Draco
took another look at him and frowned.
His nausea was almost gone and he got his first good look at the
Boy-Who-Refused-To-Die. A smirk turned
up the corners of his mouth, “But if the pain in my behind is anything to go by
along with you’re smile, I’d say a good night was had by all?” he turned it
into a question at the last moment.
Harry’s eyes snapped to his from the sleeping Slytherin.
“Yes, a very good night was had by all. Neville Longbottom is in.”
“Is in or was in?”
“Both.” Harry laughed.
It was almost another hour before Blaise stirred and he woke
to find Harry and Draco sitting at the table apparently working on a single
sheet of paper. He strained to hear what
they were saying.
“I still think she’s a bad idea, but you know her better then
I do.”
“Yes, I do, plus her aunt works in the ministry, she’s the
head of magical law Enforcement. Susan
could be an asset.”
Draco grunted in reply.
“Look, if you really think she’s a bad idea, fine. Cross her off the list.” There was a scratch of a quill, “How many
does that leave us?”
The silence was deafening.
“How do…”
“I asked. I knew she
wasn’t a virgin at the time. It was
kinda obvious.”
Draco had never been
one to count how much he drank. It would
be easy to make him appear an alcoholic, but first people had to get used to
seeing him drink with Blaise. Blaise
stumbled out of the makeshift bed and rubbed his behind. He’d forgotten just how big Draco was.
*********************************************
“About three quarters of the bottle, I think. He was trying to get me drunk.”
“Why? To get you into
bed or for another reason?”
Draco leaned back, “I don’t know, but I know he didn’t need
that hangover cure this morning. I think
he heard most of our conversation as well.”
Harry grunted and rubbed his forehead, “Nothing incriminating
was said, well except for Ginny… Shit.”
“Just how out of control will Weasley get if he finds out?”
“If he does, I think I’ll come hid in you’re dorm.
They now had a workable initiation system and a list of names of
candidates to start from. They had
decided on twenty people, with them being broken down into two groups of
ten. One group under each. Now it was just a matter of approaching the
people in question. They both teleported
to an unused room in the dungeon and split up, Draco heading towards the owlry
to send the messages, while Harry headed up to Gryffindor tower to see Hermione
and finish his homework for Monday. Hermione
however was nowhere to be found.
According to Lavender, she had come in the previous night, went to bed
and no one had seen her since. Harry
shrugged and started on hiseworework.
After a while, Neville came over and after a quick look at
the snake, put his books down and began to work beside him. They
stayed like that, working silently until they were both finished, then Harry
turned to the other boy, “Do you want something, Neville?”
“Yes. I want an
answer.”
Harry swore silently to himself. He should have known that sleeping with
Neville would cause problems. The boy
had seemed excepting last night, but after a good night’s sleep too many people
were inclined to read into an encounter what just wasn’t there. “Look Neville…”
“Let me finish,” the brown haired boy interrupted and
proceeded to surprise Harry for the second time in forty-eight hours, “This
team, that’s what’s had you so preoccupied all year isn’t it?”
Harry hesitated for a second and then nodded.
“Why haven’t you approached Ron?”
Harry leaned back and closed his eyes, “Ron is…” he sighed
and tried again, “Can you see Ron willing working with Draco? Trusting him, taking orders from him?”
“No. I see you
point. What are you goingtelltell him?”
“I don’t know, Neville, I just don’t know.
*********************************************
Monday morning dawned and everyone trooped down to breakfast,
trying to wake up after the lazy weekend.
Harry was just digging into his sausages when the post arrived. The owls flew around, looking for the
recipients of their parcels and both Harry and Draco watched with narrowed eyes
as eighteen owls found different students.
Confused, the students opened the letters and read them silently. When they were finished, the letters burst
into flame. At the staff table,
Dumbledore looked down, worry playing on his features. He knew Harry was up to something, he just
wasn’t sure what.
Harry caught Ginny’s eye as the young girl looked up from the
ashes at him. He smiled and nodded. He knew what the note had read;
Dear Ginny,
We think you have the courage, ability and strength to take the fight to
Voldemort. If you do too, join us. This letter will burn itself once you have
finished reading, so make sure you read carefully. We are setting up an elite team to fight
Voldemort. If you want in, be waiting
outside your common room at 2am tomorrow morning and someone will
come for you. If you don’t think you are
capable, then don’t show. This parchment
is charmed so that you will not be able to talk about what you have just
read. This is a decision you must make
on your own.
Regards
Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy
The only difference in the notes was the time and day and of
course the name. Over the next week, all
the people who had received the notes would have the chance to personally talk
to Draco and Harry about it. They would
try to answer the questions, but only in the Chamber of Secrets.
*********************************************
Hermione leaned against the wall outside the common room,
trying hard to appear at ease. She had
been surprised when she had received the owl, having already been told about
the team, but it didn’t change the fact that here she was, Wednesday night,
waiting to be taken to wherever it was to meet with Malfoy and Harry. From the stunned look on Ginny’s face the day
before, the bushy haired girl was willing to bet that she had got one too. Her other guesses had been Ron, Neville,
Seamus and Dean. The later two had
received the burning letters, but not the former. It had her confused.
It was almost exactly ten o clock when Neville left the
common room. He smiled at her and said,
“Well, come on then. We have to meet
someone else on the way.”
“Who?”
“You’ll see.”
Hermione desperately wanted to ask questions, but whatever charm
had been on the paper was working and she found the words wouldn’t leave her
mouth. She followed Neville down two
flights of stairs and around a few corners to come to another portrait. Leaning nonchalantly against it was a boy she
didn’t recognise as anyone other then a Ravenclaw. “Hermione Granger, meet Kevin Sinclair. Kevin, this is Hermione. I’m Neville.
Now come on, neither Draco nor Harry like being kept waiting.”
Sinclair was bursting with questions as well, Hermione
realised. At least it wasn’t just her.
Hermione realised where they were going a few minutes before
they got there. “Moaning Myrtle’s
bathroom? That’s where we’re meeting
them?”
Neville snorted and Sinclair looked confused, “Who’s Moaning
Myrtle?”
“She’s a ghost. The only
victim killed by the Basilisk when the Chamber of Secrets was opened fifty
years ago. She haunts on of the girl’s
bathrooms on the third floor. Oh! The Chamber!
Is that were we’re going?”
Neville nodded.
“How are we going to get in?”
“Someone already down there will come up to let us in.”
“Who’s already down there?”
Sinclair asked.
Neville stopped outside the door and considered the question,
“Harry, Draco, Ginny Weasley, Terry Boot, and Michael Fox. The Carmichael twins got initiated yesterday as well, but I don’t
think they’re down there now. Blaise
might be though. I don’t think anyone
besides Ginny from Monday is though” He pushed open the door and they went
inside. A few seconds later, a ghostly
girl appeared and asked, “What do you want?”
“Can you tell Harry and Draco we’re here please?”
“Oh, all right.” She
began to sink threw the floor.
A few minutes passed before reappeared and told them to
wait. A few minutes later, the sink at
the end began to sink into the floor.
Harry was standing there. He
smiled when he seen them and said, “I’m glad you came Mione. I was beginning to think you wouldn’t.”
“Of course I came!”
She threw herself into his arms and hugged him, “I would have come
earlier except for that charm on the paper.”
He grinned as he disentangled himself from her and then handed the three
people brooms. It’s not that far, but
pay attention. This place is a maze and
I don’t want to spend an hour looking for you.
Just follow me.”
To the complete shock of both Hermione and Sinclair, he
turned into a Phoenix and flew slowly down the
tunnel. In a daze they followed him with
Neville bringing up the rear. Hermione
was stunned when they reached the main chamber.
It was nothing like the descriptions Harry and Ron had given her in
second year. Harry landed on the
outstretched arm of Draco Malfoy and sent up a low thrill. Malfoy laughed and watched the three students
land. “Welcome to the Chamber of
Secrets.”
Harry hopped of his arm and turned back with a grin. “Take a seat.” The two people sat down across from where
Harry and Draco had sat and Neville wandered over to where Blaise was helping
Ginny with some spells. He needed more
practise with the Dark Arts as well.
“You’re probably wondering why you’re here. We’ll give you a general run down of what
we’re doing and then try to answer you’re questions. At the end, you decide if you’re in or out…”
Draco interrup “If “If you’re in, you start training. If you’re out, then we obliviate you.”
“Do you want to do this?” Harry asked exasperatedly.
“No, go right ahead.”
Harry rolled his eyes and continued, “Sixteen years ago when
Voldemort rose to power, no one really fought him. The ministry send hit wizards after him and
the Order tried to fight against him, but both had the same problem. They were reactive, no proactive. They wanted to remain ‘The Light Side’ and
the light side obviously couldn’t attack Voldemort. It’s the main reason he got so powerful so
fast.” Harry leaned forward, resting his
elbows on his knees. “This time it’s
going the same way. The ministry is
preparing for a ‘defence’ against Voldemort and the Order is just watching. I and Draco don’t think that’s good
enough. We want to take the fight to
Voldemort. The team we’re forming will
do what the Ministry and others won’t.
We’ll use any means necessary to force Voldemort to come after us. We’ll be making ourselves targets for both
him and the ministry. They can hardly
afford a vigilante team headed by the son of a known Death Eater and the
Boy-Who-Lived.” He paused for a few
seconds to allow the implications of that to sink in. The only sounds were the explosions coming
from the other side of the Chamber as Blaise trained the others.
“We’ll be fighting using muggle weapons, the Dark Arts,
anything we think can piss Voldemort off enough to come after us. We’ll be taking the brunt of the war because
both sides will be coming after us.”
Seeing the look on Sinclair’s face, Harry quickly continued, “Don’t get
me wrong, we’re not advocating mass murder here. We’ll be targeting only death eaters and
supporters. The plan is to make him
target us, not innocent civilians. It will be hard and it will be dirty. You have to come in to this knowing you will
have to kill and knowing that you may be killed too.”
“Right,” Draco said after a few moments, “Any questions?”
“How many people will be on this team?” Sinclair asked.
Harry remained silent, letting Draco answer, “Twenty-two,
including us. Or at least that’s the
figure we want.”
“We’ll have to learn the Dark Arts?”
“Yeah, they’re not that bad really. Most of them are difficult to learn at first
but after a while they become a lot easier.”
“How much danger will we be in?”
“The plan is for only my and Harry’s names to be associated
with the team. That means that you’ll
only be in extra danger while on a mission or if we develop a spy problem.”
“Harry is… well he’s the Boy-Who-Lived, but you… how do we
know we can trust you, Malfoy?”
Draco leaned back, considering his answer, when Harry spoke,
“Is my word not good enough for you?”
Sinclair looked surprised for a moment and then shook his
head, “It’s not that I don’t trust you, Harry, but…”
“I trust him. I’ve
been trusting him since school started.
He was the one who thought me the Dark Arts. If he wanted me killed, I would be dead
already. He’s had a hundred chances to
kill me.” Harry looked grim, “You have
to get over this ‘Slytherin are evil’ bint, Sinclair. I trust Draco and if my word isn’t good
enough for you, then his isn’t going to be either. You’ll be taking orders from one or other of
us for as long as you are on this team.
If you aren’t willing to place your faith in Draco simply because he’s
Draco Malfoy then I think you should leave now.”
Silence, even the explosions had stopped.
“How did you convince Myrtle to help?” Hermione asked in a
small voice. It was her first question.
Draco sniggered, “You’re not going to believe this…”
Harry was laughing too.
“We agreed to have a make-out session once a week for her
amusement. According to Blaise she gets
quite flushed.”
“You two are…?” Sinclair asked.
Harry shook his head, “No, we’re not. It’s just the payment for Myrtle. It would be too dangerous for us to have any
kind of relationship with anyone once this gets out. In fact we’ve decided against having a
relationship of any kind with any member of the team for just this reason. The less chinks in our armour Voldemort can
find the betted a d a loved one is a pretty big chink.” The others had to agree.
They talked for about another hour with Draco and Harry
explaining how the team would function and admitting they still hadn’t come up
with a name for it yet. Hermione had
already said she was in, so moved over to watch Blaise training the others after
a few more questions. Kevin Sinclair was
still not sure.
“You don’t have to answer now, Sinclair. You can think about it if you want. The no-talking charm will hold until we
remove it or obliviate your memory of
it.” Sinclair nodded and said he’d do
that and Draco told him to be waiting outside his common room at ten o clock on
Friday. That would be the day of the
first full meeting withryonryone from the list who had agreed. The ones ‘thinking’ would miss the meeting,
and be initiated afterwards. Sinclair
left along with Blaise and Draco took over the tutoring.
Blaise returned half an hour later with the next two possible
recruits. Harry and Draco looked at each
other and sighed. This was turning into
a long night and they still had two more pairs to get through.
