More Malfoy

CHAPTER 6

Denna followed Draco through a series of stairwells and narrow hallways, until Draco stopped suddenly.

"Rictusempra,"" Draco muttered, and a hidden door slid open. Draco led Denna through the opening.

Denna gazed around the room. She shivered as she ran her fingers over the cold stone walls in the Slytherin common room. The Slytherin common room was nothing like her common room at Beauxbatons, where the walls were painted a soft cream color and the sofas and chairs were covered in rich blue velvet. Here, the walls were stone and the sofas were covered in green leather. This was more her style. It reminded her of home.

"Denna?" Draco said quietly.

Denna turned around to see Draco sitting on an overstuffed sofa. "Yeah?"

"Why didn´t you come home for the summer holidays?" Draco asked. "You didn´t even send me an owl!"

Denna sat down next to Draco. "I´m sorry Draco," she replied. "I was just so mad at Mother for making me go to Beauxbatons. I didn´t want to be a Malfoy anymore."

Draco looked down as he heard Denna speak that last sentence. "How could you not want to be a Malfoy anymore?" He looked up at Denna. "You are a member of the most powerful wizarding family in Europe, probably in all of the world!"

"I know," Denna whispered, barely audible. "I just didn´t feel like I belonged in the family. The family has been going to Hogwarts for generations, yet Mother and Father decide to send me to Beauxbatons. She had to beg Father to let me go to Beauxbatons. The only reason that she wanted me to go there was because they strictly forbid any form of Dark Arts. They don´t even teach potions there!" Denna grabbed her wand, screamed a charm and shattered a large mirror that was propped up on a nearby table.

"You´re the third person that I´ve seen shatter that mirror," Draco said, as he pulled out his wand and pointed it toward the mirror. "Repairo," Draco said as the mirror put itself back together.

Denna shook her head. "Anyway, During the Christmas holiday of my second year, I sent an owl to father, asking him to send me books about the Dark Arts. I knew he would, because I have been interested in the Dark Arts since I was a little girl. Father tried to hide it, but I know that he was proud that I was supporting the Dark Arts. So, every year, he

sent me new books and materials. The school didn´t even know that I had all of that, Until last year. The school was conducting unannounced dormitory checks. I had gotten all of my things out of my trunk because I was planning on working on some of the Unforgivable Curses. Suddenly, the door swung open, and it was Madame Maxime. She grabbed me by the robes and took me to her office. She owled Mother and Father, and they came the next day. I was expelled. Mother was furious, but Father was absolutely pleased. That´s when he came up with the idea of sending me to Hogwarts for my last two years, rather than making me get a job. That´s also when he and Lord Voldemort devised the plan of me seducing Harry and bringing him to the Mansion."

Draco looked at Denna with an expressionless face. "I see," he responded. "So, how do I fit into this little scheme?"

"Well, you will help me get his two little friends out of the way," Denna said. "We will have some fun with them," she finished.

Draco tried to conceal his excitement. "So, not only will we get rid of Potter, we will get rid of Weasley and the Mudblood?"

"Well, we won´t get rid of the other two, but we will make this year a nightmare for them," Denna said evilly.
