Short chapter
Enjoy!
——————————————————————————-
  Draco and I had to get up early to get ready. He had on an all black suit, I was wearing a black dress with fishnet leggings and my black combat boots.

As we walked downstairs without a word his mom was sitting at the kitchen table. She greeted us both good morning, but I could tell she was just trying to hold back her tears.

We sat down and had breakfast. No one spoke, you could hear the candle burning in the middle of the table. That is, until someone knocked on the door.

"Cissy!" Bellatrix exclaimed.

She got up and opened the door.

"Oh look who's here.." Bellatrix walked up to the table.

"You two look excited, today is a very special day."

Narcissa told Draco and I that she had to take care of something important and that they would meet us on the way to Borgin and Burkes.

I continued finishing my cereal until my head started pounding. I tried to ignore the bad feeling in my stomach.

When it was time to go Draco and I stood outside the manor. For just a moment we stood there looking at the huge building as if it would be our last time seeing it.

When we caught up with Bellatrix and Narcissa we walked through the alleyway and made it to the front of the antique shop.

Draco and I looked at each other for a second and quickly went inside. The rest of the death eaters were standing in a circle around Voldemort.

They all turned to look at us. He made a speech about how our loyalty to him is very important. We both nodded our heads even though we disagreed with everything he said.

"Who's going first?" He asked with a hideous grin.

Before Draco could say anything I quickly stepped forward as if I wanted it.

"Y/n, glad to officially meet you. You will be very useful to me seeing that your power will help you preform your tasks fairly easily."

"My..power?" I questioned.

I knew I had something, I just didn't know specifically what it was.

"You aren't aware of what you're fully capable of, are you?" He asked.

I shook my head.

"I'm not sure if you knew this, but your father had the same powers as you. He was a great worker but it's too bad that he was a coward. He couldn't handle the pressure."

I tried to ignore his comment, I couldn't do anything anyway.

"Luckily, you are much more brave than he is, isn't that right?"

I nodded.

He smiled once again.

I stood in front of him as he instructed me to put my wrist out.

He grabbed my arm and put the wand to my skin.

A blue light was shining from my arm as he gave me the death eater mark.

I felt a strong burning sensation, a second later it was over. I had the mark on my arm.

I was officially a death eater.

After I went Draco went.

Voldemort spoke about how Draco's father was also a coward. He said that hopefully Draco wasn't as much of a disgrace as his father was.

Later

I was in my room when all of the sudden I heard something hit my window. I opened the curtain and saw Cedric standing outside.

Luckily Draco locked himself in his room so he didn't see Cedric.

I put on a hoodie and went downstairs. I opened the door, as he walked in I told him about how I was trying to figure out what "powers" I had.

We went to the library in the manor to find some more books about what I could be.

My dad didn't tell me anything about this. I didn't even know he was anything special.

As we were sitting at the table I heard steps come down the stairs.

I looked up to see Draco.

"Great, what's he doing here?" He asked with a sigh.

"Hello to you too Malfoy." Cedric said as he looked up at him.

"He's helping me."

"With what exactly?" He crossed his arms.

"With the power thing, I really need some answers."

"You could've just asked me.."

The three of us were in the huge library looking for books that had anything to do with mythical creatures.

"Celestial?" Draco said.

"What's that?" I ask.

Cedric and I move next to him and look at the book as he reads.

The book said that a Celestial is a creature that is a mix between a seer and a banshee. 

It was 11:40 when we finally went back upstairs.

Cedric kissed me on the cheek and said goodnight.

Draco was in the kitchen and poured himself some whiskey. As he rolled his eyes at us.

I shut the door and turned to Draco.

"At least we know what I am now." I said.

"We could've figured that out without Diggory."

I rolled my eyes, "let it go, we have way more important things to worry about right now."

"I guess.."

"It's getting late, I'm gonna go to bed."

I kissed him on the cheek, "night." I said.

He didn't say anything and continued pouting.

I went upstairs and changed into my pajamas.

I heard a knock on my window, Cedric was in the tree right next to my window.

"Ced, what are you doing?" I asked.

He came in without any context and started kissing me. I'm sure you could assume how the rest of the night went.
