A PROMISE TO THE PAST | Watching The Future

8| Malfoy's in love?

First, Harry decided to go to 'Madam Malkins robes for all occasions'. Evelyn offered to buy Harry's books and other equipments while he's buying his robes and wand. Both Harry and Hagrid agreed as both the stores were nearby. Hagrid decided to stand outside and keep an eye on both the potters, for their safety.

Harry went inside and was met by a plump woman who had asked him to stand on a stand, to get his measurements done. While he was getting his measurements done, a platinum blonde hair guy came into the store and stood beside him on another stand.

"She was so cute..." Harry heard him mumbling.

"I think he's Lucy's son..." Giggled Regulus.

"Who's the girl he's talking about?" Wondered Lucius and Abraxas Malfoy.

"Hey Hogwarts too?" The boy asked.

"Yes" Harry replied.

"I am Draco Malfoy. My parents are buying my books and wand... I guess I'll even bully father into buying me a broomstick and I'll smuggle it into school" the boy grinned.

Later, he was talking about some things that Harry didn't know and he was feeling bored. But soon, Harry's measurements were done so, he payed for his robes and dashed out if the store in relief.

"Such a bratty kid." Molly said, referring to Lucius and Narcissa. The Malfoys and Blacks (excluding Bellatrix, Sirius and Regulus passed her a threatening glare and she shut up.

Once Draco was done with his measurements, he saw the girl again so, he hurriedly payed for his stuff and dashed out of the store, just to notice that she disappeared into the crowd.

"She is definitely going to be my wife in future and noone including father would stop me!" Draco grinned shyly.

"Oh ho... Little Malfoy's in love..." The marauders sung cheekily. Lucius glared at them but they ignored it and laughed.

"Ahh... But we couldn't see the girl's face..." Whined Regulus.

The scene shifts to Harry. He went to Ollivanders to buy his wand. After trying a lot of wands, Harry finally found his wand which shot red and gold sparks as he held it.

"Yayy! Griffindor colours!" Cheered the marauders.

His wand was had the core of a pheonix feather, which is one of the most powerful wand. Most importantly, it was made of the same pheonix's feather which is present in Voldemort's wand too.

"What? Impossible!" Shreiked Lucius but, calmed down instantly, as he realised what he was doing and kept quiet.

Harry walked out after paying for his wand, still remembering the conversation he had with Ollivander.

He then noticed that Evelyn and Hagrid was standing outside the shop waiting for him. He noticed that Evelyn had bought him all his equipments and books and had even bought him a beautiful snowy owl as a gift. Hagrid had bought the three of them ice creams.

The two of them thanked Hagrid for the ice cream and had it.

"Lily... I Love your kids! Could I adopt these two? Isabella and Natalia asked with a grin.

"NO!!!" yelled Fleamont and James, before Lily could answer. The two girls, Lily and Euphemia chuckled at the Potter men's possessiveness.

"Hagrid, how did our parents die? Who killed them? Why are we seperated from our elder sister? Does she even know about us?" Harry asked.

"Well, it was a dark night... A very dark night. A dark wizard was gathering followers to raise to power and rule the world. He asked your parents to join him, but your parents being really good and selfless, declined him, thrice. Your elder sister was an year old and Harry was not born yet. Then, when Harry was born, a prophecy was made relating to him and the dark lord. So, your parents went into hiding. An year and a free months passed and Evelyn was born. Then, the dark lord tracked down your house and killed your parents in cold blood. Your elder sister- Cassiopeia was almost 3 years old, Harry was 1 year old and Evelyn... You were just a week old..." The half giant said sadly.

"How did we survive?" Evelyn asked, trying to stay strong as she no longer wanted to show emotions to any stranger.

"That itself is a mystery till today." Hagrid said and she nodded.

Harry hugged her. Both the siblings were finding comfort in each other. They wanted to stay strong for eachother.

On listening to this, James and Lily stilled. Euphemia, Fleamont, Sirius, Remus, Isabella and Natalia hugged them immediately and cried. Even Regulus joined them with tears, despite his mother's warning. Andromeda and Ted joining in shortly. Unknown to himself, rosier also shed a few tears, feeling heavy suddenly.

"My baby..." Euphemia cried holding James tightly.

Orion and Cygnus black were also feeling bad for the potters, seeing their only sister crying and were feeling helpless as they couldn't go and comfort her.

James and Lily had only one thought in their mind. That is they had left the world without being able to spend time with their kids, especially with Evelyn. Their hearts clenched at the thought of their kids.

"And about our sister?" Evelyn asked.

"As I said before, she is attending her third year at Hogwarts. And she does know about you too, and is desparately waiting to meet the two of you." Hagrid replied and the two nodded.

Euphemia refused to leave James. The potters were now waiting for the story to unfold so that they could get answers to many of their unanswered questions.

"What was that 'you know who's' name?" Evelyn asked.

"I can't say it..." Hagrid gulped in fear.

"Okay then, just write it or spell it..." Harry offered.

"I bet this half giant cannot even take the dark lord's name... Noone can do it!" Laughed Lucius with pride.

"Who told you noone can do it? What's there in his name... It's just VOLDEMORT... VOLDEMORT" yelled James, unleashing his.pent up anger, shocking everyone in the great hall.

"VOLDEMORT. V-O-L-D-E-M-O-R-T. VOLDEMORT." The marauders, Euphemia, Fleamont, Natalie, Isabella, Ted, Andromeda and Regulus yelled.

Lucius and a few others were shocked but composed themselves.

"No no, I'll just say it. But please don't make me repeat it... It's Voldemort." He said.

"Voldemort?" Harry and Evelyn asked. Hagrid nodded positively and asked them not to take that name in front of him ever again.

The marauders smirked at Lucius seeing this.

"Even your sister and her best friend- Edward Black had did the same thing with me..." Hagrid huffed and the Potter siblings smiled at the mention of their sister and her friend.

The potters and their friends laughed at Hagrid's frustration. Regulus joined them, ignoring his mother and Sirius sat beside him with a smile.

"I'm sorry for leaving you alone with those people, please forgive me Reggie..." Sirius apologized with tears streaming down his face.

"It's okay Siri... I forgive you this time but please don't leave me alone ever again.... They were about to make me get a dark mark..." Regulus cried hugging his elder brother.

"I will never leave you alone ever again... Until I die!" Sirius promised and hugged his brother.

James and Remus smiled seeing the two Black brothers reconcile because, they had seen both the brothers cry for eachother.

"IT FEELS REALLY GREAT SEEING OLD BONDS RECONCILING SEEING NEW BONDS BEING FORMED" An unknown voice in the air, happiness evident in the speaker's voice.
Sirius and Regulus smiled hearing the unknown voice.
