Queen of Slytherin

CHAPTER 7

(A. N. Hi! I'm back early! Today is my last free day before I have to start a new course so I will probably be busy from then onwards. I won't update as often as now but I will make sure to post once a week. Twice, if I'm free. Thank you for reading this! I know how a lot of people skip bcs I'm one of those people. 😂
Please comment bcs I love hearing about what you think is going to happen next.

Thank you.)

I paced the floor of Malfoy Mansion beside the floo while Regulus simply followed me around, trying to calm me down. Tom merely looked at us in amusement. The time had come and I was finally meeting the Remus John Lupin, also known as Moony.

The floo suddenly flashed with green fire and someone stepped out. A good looking young man with shaggy brown hair and a scar on his face. He wore a teak coloured knitted sweater and long dark brown jeans. He looked tired which was surely because of the full moon two days ago. He took one look at me before tears brimmed in his honey brown eyes as his knees fell to the floor

"Hello, Moony." I said and a fat tear rolled down his cheek. I walked towards him and wrapped my arms around him. Sobs racked out of him and he clutched onto me as if I would disappear if he let go.

"I'm sorry, pup. I tried to find you but Dumbledore hid you and I couldn't even go to the Ministry because they don't allow werewolves to take guardianship of children. He told me that it was for the greater good and I hated him for it." He choked out and I just hugged him tighter, also starting to tear up. He had looked for me and it seems that he was already starting to hate Dumbledore so it should be easier to convince him of Tom's innocence.

"Perhaps it would be better to not sit on the floor. It is quite cold around this time of year." Narcissa stated in a gentle voice and Remus nodded, cheeks still glistening with tears.

He turned to look at the other people in the room. Regulus had already scooped me up and sat me on his lap on the double seat couch while tom sat right beside us. When Remus's eyes landed on them, he let a low growl of annoyance. I would have giggled if the situation wasn't so tense.

When he tried to get Tom off, Tom actually took out his wand, trying to threaten him. I sent a hiss towards him in warning and he put his wand away with a small scowl and pout that made Remus snort until I quirked my eyebrow at him. He settled for sitting in the armchair right beside me and Regulus.

(I'm too tired to write the whole explanation scene. Forgive me! 🥺😭)

After I've told Remus about everything and showed him the Inheritance test. When he got to the party where it stated that Sirius was being illegally imprisoned he let out an angry growl, looking at me for confirmation and I nodded. Then he moved on to the compulsions and blocks... to say that he was angry would be stretching it. He was heartbroken and pissed. His body was vibrating while his eyes flashed gold every now and then.

"I'll kill him." He swore and Tom let out a scoff. "You're going to have to wait in line. I had a bone to pick with him since before you were born." He said, darkly. Remus looked at him with disbelief. "Who are you?"

"Before I tell you that, you are to swear with Lady Magic as your witness that you are to listen till the end before you make a move to try and kill me." Remus looked cautious but nodded.

"I swear with Lady Magic as my witness that I will not attack you until I've heard everything you wish to tell me in this moment, so mote it be."
"I agree with the terms and will tell nothing but the truth, so mote it be." After Tom so much as uttered this sentence,  gold string of magic tied itself around his and Tom's wrists.

"I am Tom Marvolo Riddle but you may know me by my more infamous acronym. Voldemort. I did not kill my soulmates parents willingly and I was put under an Imperius curse by Dumbledore. Roselia is my soulmate and as you know, soulmates cannot kill each other. Not that I would ever think to harm her." He explained and Remus's eyes widened by a marginal amount. He looked like he was about to fain with how pale his face was.

Moony turned to me. "Are we going to be able to get Sirius out?"

I nodded. "Uncle Lucy already sent the second inheritance test that I redid at Gringotts last week to Lady Amelia Bones. She is fair and has considerable power in the Ministry. "

Just as I said this, a northern hawk-owl rules talked on the window with his break. I hoped of the couch and rushed to open the window. I took out some of the owl treats that I carried in my featherlight bag with an expansion charm. It took the treat from me and gave me a happy hoot while lifting up his leg that had a letter with the ministry's emblem attached to it.

Dear Lady Potter-Pervell-Gryffindor,

I have received the evidence that states that
Lord Black did indeed not get a trial.
I have fixed a trial on the 21st of December, three days from now.
If he is innocent, he will be free and will be compensated.

Thank you for notifying me of this treachery,

Lady Amelia Bones from the Ministry of Magic.

As I read through the letter, I let out an excited squeal and passed the letter to Moony. His eyes lit up with barely contained happiness and excitement he read the words quickly. He turned to me and scooped me up into his arms and gave me a tight hug while he laughed.

"I take that it's good news." Said Tom, smirking. I nodded my head frantically.

"He's getting a trial in three days, Tom!" I said excitedly and he gave me an amused smile in return. Regulus felt a tear drip down his face, brushing it away and acting like he didn't just shout a "Fuck yeah!" before getting smacked on the back of him head by Tom for using profanities in front of me. Little did they know that I knew all the modern swears as well as Polish and Korean swears from gaming and watching too many Korean dramas.

(A. N. Ok! That's it! Next chapter may be a filler or the trial of Sirius Black so stay tuned!)
