That was the headlines everywhere for the past couple days. She couldn't escape it. That same picture of her father looking as though he's lost all sanity plastered on every wall. Maia decided to just stay at Malfoy Manor until she goes back to school in a few days.

Maia walked down the stairs and into the foyer of the manor, seeing her aunt and uncle sitting at a table, with one of the daily prophets, talking, more like arguing?

"She's gonna go and she'll be fine!"

"How can we be so sure, Lucius?!"

"Look at him! Not an ounce of love or care for the girl could be lef-"

"Shh." Narcissa stopped the discussion as she noticed Maia standing there. "Maia."

"Aunt Cissy. Uncle Lucius." Maia nodded at the two, before hurrying back upstairs.

"Maia! I'll go talk to her." Narcissa says to her husband, as he rolls his eyes.

In her bedroom, Maia wasn't crying. She was just angry. Angry at everything going on in her life.

"Maia? Hey." Narcissa gently knocked on her door.

"What?" Maia rolled her eyes.

"You'll be fine." Narcissa held her close. "It's gonna be okay. He's not going to hurt you."

"Part of me still wants to believe that he's innocent.." Maia said, embracing Narcissa back.

"I know, love, but it's okay. You're going to go to Hogwarts tomorrow, and you'll be fine. Okay?" Narcissa strokes her hair.

"Okay. Yeah. I'm gonna write Astoria back now, tell her I'm doing okay." Maia nodded at her aunt.

Narcissa nodded back and smiled, before closing her door. Maia began writing to Astoria Greengrass, her best friend since first year.

Hey Tori,

I'm doing as well as I can be. I mean, how would you feel if your insane murderous father broke out of prison and might be out to find me, haha!

But in all siriusness (see what I did there), I'll be okay! I talked to my aunt and I'm still going to Hogwarts this year and I'll no doubt be perfectly safe. Though I am a tad worried once Potter finds out that my father is responsible for what happened to his parents. Also worried about how Draco is going to behave but, I guess I'll cross that bridge when we get there!

Love you and can't wait to see you tomorrow!

Love, Maia E. Black

"You both have everything?" Narcissa said, straightening Draco's jacket.

"Yes!" The two replied in unison.

"Mum- stop that- I can do it myself!" the 13 year old whined as Maia snickered.

"Okay. Okay. I love you both. Behave!" Narcissa smiled, gesturing over to Lucius so he would say something.

"Right. Take care and behave. Go on then."

As Maia started to enter the train Narcissa spoke up once more, "Oh! Remember to-"

"Take care of Draco! Yeah, I know!" Maia smiled before boarding the train.

Maia walked through the crowded train to find her compartment. The one she's been sitting in since 1st year. That's where she would find Astoria.

A/N short chapter for the first one, I may not update very frequently because I want there to be pace between the chapters, and I have 5 others already written, but we'll see what happens :)
