More Malfoy

CHAPTER 4

Denna was becoming irritated with the senseless chatter from the first year students, so she slid out of her seat and walked down to where Draco was sitting.

She bent over to whisper in Draco’s ear. “Let’s get out of here.” Draco nodded and followed her out of the Great Hall.

Once they were in the corridor, Draco exploded. “Why didn’t you tell me that you were being transferred to Hogwarts?”

“Draco, calm down. I thought that you would be happy to have me here!” Denna said with an evil grin.

“I am very happy, but I wish that you would have told me beforehand,” Draco responded. “So, how did you get Mother and Father to let you come here?”

Denna laughed. “I’ve been trying to get out of Beauxbatons since first year! Mother didn’t want me practicing the Dark Arts, and you know how she has Father wrapped around her finger. He just agreed with her and they shipped me to France. I have a passion for the Dark Arts, so I owled Father and he shipped me some books so I could learn more. He was just so proud that his little girl was interested in the Dark side. Well, Beauxbatons strictly outlaws any form of the Dark Arts, even if it is just books about it. They found out that I had the books, and they told me that I couldn’t go to school there anymore. Mother was furious, but Father was positively glowing. He’s wanted me here the whole time.”

Draco laughed and shook his head as Denna continued. “Father came with me here because he wanted the headmaster to sort me separately. I’m glad that he did, because those first years are unbearably annoying!”

“And it guaranteed that you would be put in Slytherin,” Draco added.

“Yes, that, too. Father figured that I would be in Slytherin anyway, since he was in Slytherin and you are in Slytherin,” Denna answered. “Father left me here with a mission. I’m supposed to do something with Harry Potter.”

“Potter? Yes! Finally we will be able to get rid of him. I couldn’t do it by myself, but I know that Denna and I could do it together!” Draco thought.

“I don’t think that will be a problem,” Draco said evilly. “So, how would Father like for us to kill him?”

“Kill him? I don’t think that he wants us to kill him,” Denna replied. “We’re supposed to torture him a bit, and then he wants us to bring him to the Mansion so that Lord Voldemort can see him.”

“So Voldemort is going to kill him?” Draco asked.

“My goodness, Draco, you sure do want him dead!” Denna exclaimed.

“You have no idea, Denna. That Potter has made the past five years of my life a nightmare. It’s always Potter, Potter, Potter. I could start a bloody empire and people would still worship Potter!”

“A little jealous, are we?” Denna said with a smirk.

“I am not jealous of Potter!” Draco yelled, putting a large emphasis on ‘Potter.’

“What is it, Malfoy?” Harry said. He, Ron and Hermione had left the Great Hall and were heading for the Gryffindor common room when they heard Draco yell “Potter” rather loudly.

Draco and Denna turned around. It was a rather frightening sight. Denna and Draco looked almost identical. They both had white-blonde hair, piercing blue eyes, and unmistakable body language.

“Well, well well. Potty, Weasel, and the Mudblood. So wonderful to see you,” Draco smirked.

“You yelled my name, Malfoy. Are you telling your, well, whatever she is to you, about how I’m a better Seeker than you are?” Harry said.

Draco looked at Denna. “I was telling my sister about what a royal pain in the arse you are.”

“Sister?” Ron exclaimed.

“Yes, Weasel, this is my sister--” Draco began as Denna interrupted.

“Denna Malfoy. Such a pleasure to meet you all, especially you, Harry,” Denna said with a small smile.

Harry nodded. He was confused by Denna. She seemed nice, but there was no way that the Malfoys had one drop of niceness in their blood. Harry decided to avoid Denna at all costs.

“Well, we’d better be going,” Hermione said quickly, and she turned as Ron and Harry followed her.

Draco and Denna watched them walk away. “This is going to be too easy,” Denna said.

Draco had his doubts.
