The Werewolf and The Monster

Chapter 33 - Shopping

Pandora sighed in frustration and rose from her office, exiting the room and storming down to the Gryffindoor and opening it, rising up and entering Albus' office.

"Hello dear Pandora, what brings you to my office today?" Albus smiled warmly at the girl, She returned the smile and stood in front of his desk.

"I'll be heading out for the day, I don't have a specific time I'll be back, But it'll be later on today." She spoke clearly.

"Very well, You may go then, Have a good time out." Albus confirmed with a nod.

"Thank you Albus." Pandora smiled gratefully and walked back out. Closing the door and using her abilities to disappear. The feeling of speeding through freezing air and the sight of everything passing in a blur before it stopped suddenly in the Malfoy manor. People who have experienced that for the first time would've fallen over.

"Narcissa! Lucius!" Her voice radiated through the dark house. Both Lucius and Narcissa came storming in with their wands drawn but quickly put them away at seeing the Grim-Reaper.

"What are you doing here?" Narcissa asked curiously.

"Come to have a visit and steal you for a bit, We are going shopping for the ball. As a little treat and so we can get to know each other a little more." Pandora smiled as Narcissa's eyes lit up slightly and she nodded quickly, only for her to try to compose herself.

"Okay, Let me just go get ready." Narcissa nodded.

"We're going to Death's land because I actually have currency there and it'll be a nice experience, Just bring something to keep you warm, It's rarely warm there and I don't like sacrificing my cloak to keep my friends warm. And preferably wear something that isn't a dress with heels, once again it's cold and the terrain is constantly shifting and changing."

"How come?" Lucius straightened his back and asked.

"The book will explain more in depth but some of the creatures that live down there live underground and are big enough to move the terrain." She smiles as Narcissa quickly scurries off to get ready and change.

Lucius approached her with a smile. "Does he know what type of animal family he'll be able to turn into?"

Pandora shook her head. "It's chosen at random as long as another Grim-Reaper doesn't have that path, there's few exceptions but those are only shared between siblings. But the choosing isn't known, Death would choose but obviously he isn't here, So it'll be chosen at random as long as the family option is vacant, So he very well could become the new Prehistoric, or he could become a new family line that hasn't been filled, ever." She shrugs with a smile. Lucius nods and hums.

"So if he gets a family line that's not exactly great, It doesn't represent who he is or anything like that. Just he's been given the unlucky draw." She shrugged. "He'll learn how to use his animal forms to his advantage anyways."

Her attention is snapped back to Narcissa walking with a purse slung over her shoulders, baggy trousers and a posh shirt with a blazer.

"I usually wouldn't wear this but since you said the terrain isn't the best." Narcissa confirmed while Pandora nodded in approval and held out her hand.

"Come now, I'll pay for the dresses and dress robes." Narcissa walked over and took her hand. Pandora smiled warmly at her. "Be warned, it's unusual to travel this way. Just try not to fall." Narcissa nodded and Pandora disappeared with her in a form of black smoke that wisped off into little red specks.

They reappeared on a pavement in the middle of a centre. She quickly held out her arm in front of Narcissa as they appear so she didn't fall straight onto the dark concrete.
