Cordelia Lyra Malfoy had always been different from the rest of her family. Her family were blood-supremacists who tried to teach their views to their children. Cordelia never believed with their views and would be punished for it.

One night in early June, the young adults stayed in the living room after Molly, Arthur, and Aunt Muriel went to sleep for the night. A Silencing Charm was used on the room to ensure the adults wouldn't be woken up. Fred, George, and Lee were playing Exploding Snap in the center of the room. Kiana, Cordelia, and Ginny took over the couches.
Cordelia sat in an armchair, playing "Titanium" on her guitar. Kiana sat on a couch as she brushed her wet hair, just out of the shower, and put it into a messy low bun. Ginny laid on the couch with her feet resting on Kiana's lap while looking at one of Kiana's Muggle magazines.
Ginny sighed before she sat the magazine on the floor next to the couch and pulled out her Dumbledore's Army coin. It was an item she kept on her at all times, waiting for Neville to activate it to tell her something was happening. She was fiddling with it, rotating it between her fingers, when she let out a gasp and sat up. Cordelia stopped playing her guitar while everyone turned their attention to the younger girl.
"The DA coin.. It's warm!" she said excitedly as she rushed to find her shoes.
"So?" asked George, shrugging his shoulders in confusion as he watched his sister move to the front door where she started to put on her shoes.
"So, Neville said he would activate the coins if Harry showed up at Hogwarts," explained Ginny, tying her shoe laces. "The writing on the edge says, 'Hogshead,' I guess that's where we need to go to get into the school."
With this information, the others quickly scrambled to get their shoes as well. They were standing in a small group, about to Apparate, when Fred stopped. "You can't come with us, Ginny... Neither can you, Cordi. Sorry, love."
"Why not me?" asked Cordelia.
"Yes, I can. I can't stay here while everyone I care about is fighting," Ginny protested.
"Ginny, Mum will kill us if we bring you. And, love, you aren't feeling well." he retorted.
"I feel fine now. I must have just eaten something that didn't settle right," argued Cordelia.
"You've been saying that for the last two weeks," he argued.
"We're going whether you take us with you or not," said Ginny, stomping her feet. "If you leave without us, we'll just Apparate right behind you.
"You can't Apparate, Ginny," Fred argued.
"Cordelia will take me," she responded. "Right, Cordi?"
"Erm..." Cordelia grunted, not wanting to agree to it. She knew Ginny was too young to go.
"We might as well," said George, shrugging his shoulders when his twin gave him a look. "If she's going regardless of what we do, we might as well know where she is."
