Draco paced impatiently in front of a rundown looking muggle home, it was still twenty minutes until the time he had been given to meet the three Gryffindors.
He had left early from his home to avoid anymore of his mother’s questions about why he was in a somewhat better mood and he had succeeded in his escape with only one house elf seeing him. The frightened creature screamed in shock, then quickly apologized and offered him breakfast.
Draco looked down at his wristwatch, a gift from his father last year on his sixteenth birthday, it was exactly ten thirty. He raised his head and looked over his shoulder when he heard three loud poufs, one after another.
He quickly straightened himself, after all he was a Malfoy and Malfoy’s always looked their best, then turned and faced the newly arrived travelers.
Ron looked up at the blond boy; he had been expecting to be waiting on him, but it seemed Malfoy had been the one waiting. Hermione and Ginny stood close behind the red head; he had gotten an ear load last night from both girls concerning his selfish decision of letting Malfoy tag along. Now, neither of the girls were acknowledging the blond Slytherin and both were scowling at Ron whenever he looked at them for too long.
“Black was scheduled to have a meeting at the Ministry, so we have at least two hours to do what we need to do. Unfortunately, Lupin is still in the Manor so we’ll have to…” Draco, who had been explaining the situation, stopped mid sentence when he notice the strange looks the Gryffindors were giving him.
“Before you ask, no, I didn’t tell my father; the meeting had been scheduled two weeks in advance.” The blond Slytherin rolled his eyes, trying to look as offended as possible.
“Whatever, Malfoy; there’s still the problem of how we’re going to get in and look around without being noticed by Lupin.” Ron looked at Hermione clearly hoping she would get over her bad mood and help them out.
The brunette witch rolled her eyes and reached into the pocket of her pink jacket pulling out four small bottles of orange colored potion.
Ron smiled and flinched at the same time; the potion was good when you needed to disappear because of the fact that once taken only someone who had also taken it could see and hear you. He had taken it once before when Hermione and him had used it to get into the Ministry to see Harry a few weeks before his final battle with ‘He Who Must Not Be Named’.
When first taken the potion really had no flavor, but about three seconds later your mouth filled with what tasted like clumps of paper soaked in mucus.
Ron had nearly thrown it up; Hermione acted like the vile substance didn’t affect her in the least.
“Great ‘Mione, I knew you would think of something.” Ron smiled, trying to hide his lack of enthusiasm; after all he did say he would do anything it took. Besides he was looking forward to seeing the look on Malfoy’s face once the potion kicked in.
Hermione passed one to Ginny then handed two to Ron, which Ron interpreted to mean she was not going anywhere near Malfoy.
Ron tossed the bottle at the blond Slytherin, smirking as he popped the top off his and downed it. A few seconds later he could feel his mouth fill with the nauseating substance; he fought back the growing urge to puke and turned his back toward Malfoy so he couldn’t derive any joy from his discomfort.
He swallowed one last time, allowing the remainder of the foul thick liquid to creep down his throat. The red head then looked up to see Hermione and Ginny standing a few feet away, the brunette witch was tucking the two empty bottles back into her jacket.
The Gryffindor turned, smiling wickedly when he remembered why he was looking forward to the horrid potion, and was greeted by a smug looking Malfoy.
“What Weasley? Were you expecting me to puke my guts up, like you wanted to?” Draco asked, smugly crossing his arms in front of his chest; Ron glared at the blond boy, balling his hands into fist.
“Shove it, Malfoy, let’s get this over with so I never have to see your ugly face again.” Draco narrowed his eyes and started to open his mouth to insult the other boy, when the front door of the manor swung open.
A tired looking Remus Lupin stepped out followed by a familiar, but nervous house elf.
“I’ll only be gone for a short while; you know I wouldn’t leave unless it was important. Damn Sirius and his hot temper; I honestly don’t think that man listens to a word I say.”
“Dobby, don’t look at me that way, it will only be around an hour.” Lupin smiled tiredly at the elf while pulling his scarf up so it could protect his lower face from the growing cold.
The small elf nodded, his large beady eyes watering up. “Yes, sir…Dobby won’t let anyone in. Dobby promises.”
Lupin nodded then turned and walked down the four steps Apparating before his foot hit the pavement of the street.
“Well, that takes care of that problem, guess we didn’t need that potion after all.” Hermione shrugged her shoulders; watching Dobby disappear back into the manor, the door slammed quickly behind him.
“Wrong, you heard the elf, one glimpse of us and he’ll sound the alarm. It’s better that no one sees us, the potion was a good idea.” Draco said, looking at the closed door.
The three Gryffindors stared at Malfoy in surprise; had the Slytherin prince, the pure blood Malfoy, actually complimented Muggle born Hermione Granger?
Before they had a chance to question him the blond boy took off towards the door. “Well, what are you waiting for, we only have an hour.” Malfoy shouted back at them, opening the door and walking in.
Ron nodded and led the way, quickly catching up to Malfoy. Once again, they entered the room with the portrait of a young Harry, who starred lazily out at the sunset unaware of his new guests.
Draco studied the portrait silently for a moment before turning to the others in the room. He reached into his pocket and pulled out the Skeleton Grim key.
“I’ll make a path next to the portrait; once we’re through the spell we should be able to move freely around the manor.”
The three Gryffindors nodded, Draco turned back to the portrait and pointed the key at the wall next to it.
“Skeleton Grim make me a path!” Malfoy said in the most commanding voice he could muster, rousing the wolf to open its mouth and release a beam of light straight into the wall it was pointed at.
The wall lit up, turning light green for a moment then returning to its original form. The key then closed it mouth and whined softly, wanting to be returned to the warmth of its master’s pocket.
Draco complied and carefully tucked the key away.
“That should have done it; a path should be opened so we can get to the next room. But to be on the safe side, why don’t you run into the wall and find out Weasley? I have no doubts that that thick head of yours could take the impact if Skeleton Grim failed.” That’s for the ugly face comment outside. Malfoy thought to himself, smiling smugly.
Ron scowled, ready to beat Malfoy senseless, when he was roughly pushed toward the wall. He looked back to see the irritated face of his sister Ginny staring straight at him. “You two are worse than children, now hurry up, let’s go.”
Ron pouted for a moment then blushed in embarrassment, realizing he had been yelled at by his little sister in front of Malfoy. “Ginny, stop talking to me like…” Before he could finish he was shoved though the wall and followed by a very pleased red headed girl.
Feeling completely uncomfortable being left alone with Malfoy, Hermione stepped forward to follow her friends.
“Wait.”
She stopped and looked back at Malfoy who seemed to be looking at everything in the room except her. “What is it, Malfoy?” She folded her arms in front of her chest and tapped her foot impatiently.
The blond boy reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out a small vile filled with blood red potion. Hermione instinctively pulled back, her hand ready at her side to grab and use her wand.
Draco put up his hands, knowing he needed to show the Gryffindor he wasn’t going to harm her.
Hermione wasn’t buying it. “What is that, Malfoy?”
Draco hated this; hated having to be civil and cautious around people he normally couldn’t tolerate.
“It’s just a sleeping potion, Granger, aren’t you the smart one of your little group?” Draco thought about what he said and quickly added. “I’m not intending to use it on any of you. Here take it.” He held out the potion, signaling the female to take it.
“What gives, Malfoy? Why are you giving it to me?” Hermione asked, eyeing the red potion she was being offered.
“Will you just take the damn thing, Granger?!” Draco snapped. He was quickly losing his patience with the girl.
Hermione jumped at his sudden outburst and without realizing what she was doing, she snatched the potion from the blond boy’s outstretched hand. She hadn’t been completely out of it at that moment; when she came forward to grab the bottle out of Malfoy’s hand she noticed his pupils had vanished leaving his eyes completely silver.
The blond stepped back, shook his head, then looked back up at the girl. His eyes had returned to their natural steel grey color and his pupils were slightly dilated.
Hermione’s mind raced with thoughts, trying to find any information she had taken in over the years about people’s eyes doing what Malfoy’s had just done. She felt a firm hand on her shoulder, clearing her mind of the chaotic thoughts.
“You okay, ‘Mione?”
The brunette girl looked to her side to find Ron, who was glaring at Malfoy. She looked back at Malfoy, whose face was the emotionless mask he wore whenever he wasn’t glaring at her or other people he considered lower than him.
“Yeah, I’m fine, Ron. Come on, let’s go before Ginny yells at us.” Hermione grabbed her friend’s hand and pulled him back toward the wall.
Malfoy followed making sure to keep a good distance between himself and the Gryffindors. He couldn’t have another incident like that one; he couldn’t afford to lose control of his emotions.
“Finally!” Ginny exclaimed as soon as everyone had entered the dimly lit room.
Ron rolled his eyes and walked toward the door which would lead them to the hall. He opened it and was greeted by an even dimmer hallway. He squinted his eyes trying to make out anything. The red headed boy looked right then left then slowly turned around, dismay and horror evident on his face.
“At least fifty.” He said to the confused group staring at him.
Hermione was the first to realize what Ron was babbling about. “Doors? Are you sure Ron?” She asked and was quickly answered by a nodded from her friend.
Malfoy walked forward into the hall, nearly shoving a still dumbfounded Ron into nearby furniture. He studied the hall as the Gryffindor had done. “Let’s go right.” He ordered the small group still in to room.
By this time Ron had regained his senses and stepped back into the hall. Ronald Weasley being who he was, had just one thing to say about Malfoy’s order.
“Then it’s decided, we’re going left.”
Meanwhile, at the Ministry of Magic.
“Sirius Black, so help me if you move from that chair again, even a inch, you’ll be begging them to throw you back into Azkaban!” Remus Lupin crossed his arms and narrowed his eyes at the crazed wizard sitting in front of him.
Sirius was too upset to notice the glare and threats being sent his way; mostly because he was sending similar glares at the platinum blond man sitting behind the desk.
Lucius Malfoy sat back in his large leather chair, nursing a busted lip, silently cursing the wizard who dared to ruin his perfect face.
Lupin sighed, gave up threatening Sirius and turned to Lucius. “What did you say that made him attack you?”
The blond wizard looked up at the man who was questioning him. “I just informed him, like I inform all witnesses connected to the Potter case, that withholding information concerning the boy’s whereabouts is punishable by imprisonment.”
Lupin raised an unbelieving eyebrow at the other wizard. “And?”
Lucius ran his fingers over his busted lip. “And…I asked him if there might be any reason why Harry would be afraid to come home. Then he jumped up like a mad man and started to swing at me.”
Lupin sighed in relief. “Sirius babied Harry every chance he could get in the short time they were together; he would never harm him or let anyone else do so for that matter.”
Malfoy nodded, reluctantly accepting the brunette wizard’s statement.
Remus turned and motioned for Sirius to follow him. “We are very tired and I’m sure the both of you are far too worked up to sit down and talk civilly about anything, so we’ll be on our way.”
Lucius stood up and crossed his arms in front of his chest. “Be glad that I’m in a forgiving mood, Black. I’m sure you are aware that an attack on an official of the Ministry of Magic is punishable with a lengthy period of time in prison. And furthermore, be grateful that Remus is willing to stand by your side when any other sane man would have left long ago.” The blond man smirked and sat back down, pulling a few papers from a large stack toward him.
Sirius, who had been halfway out the door, turned to attack the blond again, but was quickly stopped when Lupin linked his right arm with Sirius’ left and pulled him into the hall.
“I think it’s safe to say you’ve done enough damage for one day.” Remus turned toward the other man, tightening his grip on their linked arms.
Sirius gave up any further attempts at escape and allowed himself to be pulled to the exit.
