The Father's Journal

Part 41 - Friendly Conversation

"This is where a room of requirements is," says Serenity.

Draco stands back a bit as he waves his wand, making a barrier so no one can hear them.

"On the surface of my mission. No one is to get into the ACTUAL room of requirements. I am sorry that I cannot tell you the details, but this is what I need your help with while I away" say Draco seriously.

Serenity looks at Draco and he looks at her back. Serenity can see it. She maintains her composure when she finds out where Draco is going. To the Greengrass household. She refrains from digging further, like finding out what is Draco's mission in detail. That is not her mission.

"It is all that I ask of you," asks Draco.

Serenity node her head.

"Wherever you have to go, I hope you get what you want," says Serenity.

Draco nods his head and takes a deep breath nervously. Serenity frowns. She is worried but not entirely. Draco is more nervous than scared. Then he signs and smiles as he looks at Serenity.

"If only I can tell you what I am going to do but NO. I have to be sure. I hope you understand" says Draco with a nervous smile.

Serenity's eyes widen. She might have some idea what is happening but she held back and smile.

"I hope you get what is it you want," says Serenity.

Draco's smile is the most honest, beautiful smile that Serenity has ever seen. Serenity giggles. Her assumption was correct. Draco nods his head slightly to Serenity and walks away. Then she realised, Draco is dressed to impress.

A raven stands on one of the tree branches near the Greengrass household. As expected, Draco apparate not far from the house. The raven watched as the boy walk nervously to the house. Once in front of the house, he takes a deep breath and gives it a knock.

The door opens, revealing a house elf.

"Greetings Master Malfoy, my master is waiting for you in his office. Follow me, sir"' say the house elf, bowing low.

"Lead the way," said Draco and the door close behind him.

The raven flies around the house until it lands on the tree branch by the window where it appears to be the master of the house's office. Through the window, a middle-aged man is sitting, while smoking a pipe and reading newspapers. The door opens and enters Draco. Mr Greengrass stand up and put aside the newspaper and his pipe.

Draco walks tall but with respect. He held out his hand first as a gesture of respect to the master of the house. Mr Greengrass looks like he is taken by Draco's respectful demeanour towards him. He gestures for Draco to sit down. Tea is brought in and both wizard talks.

Serenity is making her usual round after dinner. Then she hears a couple of kids crying with the sound of several adults laughing. Feeling something is off, Serenity walk fast and saw three Death Eaters doing something, with one of the Death Eaters pointing his wand at the students, screaming and crying in fear.

Feeling disgusted, Serenity take out her wand.

"FINITE"

In instant, the spell stopped and the students look relieved, but still crying out of fear. All of the Death Eaters look back to Serenity in anger.

"How dare you interfere, MUD BLOOD!" said one of the Death Eaters.

Serenity sign. In their eyes, she is still mud blood despite that she has already become Death Eater.
