Surprisingly, things actually ended well.

News had gone around since last week that Hermione Lestrange was missing and there was no one as furious as her parents, especially her mother. Who'd dare kidnap the daughter of Bellatrix Lestrange after all, only a mad person they'd say. But Ginevra knew, she was there, she'd seen it all.

De vil had cast an unfamiliar spell at Lestrange and turned her to the very chuwawa right beside her, and then the weird girl had stared right at her and winked. The thing is, Ginevra had been in her animagus form, a beautiful red butterfly. She used her form to spy on her peers and gather as much information about them as possible and keep them in her black mail list, that was how she'd survive her few years at Hogwarts. She came as a cheerful Gryffindor, but was soon forced to become a snake in lion's clothing, it kept the bullies away from her. But then, De vil somehow knew now, and Ginevra wasn't sure what to do. It would've been a good blackmail though, but Ginevra wasn't stupid, she knew of De vil's power, that's all everyone have been talking about for awhile now. She didn't want to end up at the girl's bad side...but then, De vil sat opposite her and said...

"I admire your talent Ginevra. I almost didn't notice you. Also, an animagus?, At such a young age?, I am impressed. Not only that, but you have a talent of keeping your peers intact, am guessing this is how, right?, I love it. Say, do you want us to be friends?".

"Um...". Ginevra was dumbfounded.

"Am taking that as a yes. Great! You'd be seeing me more often now. Have a wonderful day love".

With that, she was gone.

Ginevra couldn't understand what had just happened. But she wasn't complaining, being friends with Cruella will surely make alot of people jealous... It was making some people jealous at that moment, and she relished in it.

Luckily there was a silencing spell around them so no one heard what they were saying. With a big smile, Ginevra left the library.

"Lucas Malfoy was my brother". Lord Malfoy explained. "He died in the war along with Layla Malfoy neé Black his wife, killed by James Potter, Sirius Black and Frank Longbottom". He sighed. "We thought we lost you Cruella". He said sadly. Lady Malfoy and Lady Lestrange were at the other side of the room sniffing. Cruella had never being in the midst of so much emotion, it was disgustingly amusing.

"Am glad I found my family". She smiled, petting her new dog pet as she sat with her legs crossed. She knew who her family were from the beginning of course, she could've revealed herself to them a long time ago, She simply did not want to, content with being free and alone, but then her little pet spoiled everything for her, and now she had no choice. But then again, she could use this to her adventage. The Malfoys, after all,  were the closest to the darklord. That man had power, alot of it, and Malfoys and Blacks crave nothing more than power, they seek it out from wherever it hides, and embrass it. The only difference between Cruella and the rest of her family was, she never bows to power, no, she takes it.

"I wish my Hermione was here, she'd be so glad to see you".

Cruella did not think so, but hey, whatever suited the crazy witch.

The first task was drawing nearer, and Cruella's aunts and uncles had tried to remove her from it.

Cruella outright refused.

She wasn't going to miss out on all the fun simply because her family worried so much. This was why she'd kept away from all of them, she wasn't one for sentiments. She sighed. Only her worst friend would really understand her.

Talking of friends.

Cruella felt something flying towards her fast. She caught it just inches away from her temple without looking.

It was a dagger.

A sigh. "Atleast I was so close this time".

"Hello to you too". Cruella turned to the pale girl, dressed in all black with a twin braid. She raised an eyebrow. "I presume you're here to watch my premature death". It wasn't a question.

The girl sneered. It sent every student that stood to watch evacuating that corridor. "You know me too well".

"Wednesday! There you are...oh Cruella darling! How horrible to see you again".

Cruella smiled at the tall and skinny, but extremely beautiful woman. "You as well Mrs. Addams".

"Oh! Look at you!". A teary Gomez hugged her making Wednesday roll her eyes. He broke the hug to look at Cruella with pride. "All grown up now aren't you, we're so proud". He wiped a tear away, looking very proud.

"Yes. I just can't wait to see you in the arena, fighting a freaking dragon". Pugsley sighed dreamily. "You're SO lucky".

"I know". Cruella smirked, not bothering to ask how the boy even knew of the dragons.

Infact, how did she know?. It was suppose to be a secret!.
