Another Mate Found

"No freaking way." Theo muttered. The three girls stopped and turned towards the door. "Bollox." Blaise whispered his eyes wide as he stared at the girls who were now advancing on them.

"Should we run? I feel like we should run." Theo whispered to Blaise. "Shut up you idiot they're elementals they could easily just kill us." Draco snapped hitting Theo. Aster opened the door and Theo let out a small squeak and tried to make a mad dash for it only to have a blast of air drag them inside. "You stupid idiot." Blaise shouted at Theo.

"So, you boys are aware of our," Aurora paused looking for the right words. "little secret." "A secret that could have us killed should anyone find out, and yet you now know it and we don't know if we should trust you.." Aries said looking at each boy individually.

"Uh, I'd like to point out, if I may of course milady," Blaise looked at Aries expectantly and she gave a sharp nod. "I already knew your secret and also if you kill me you also die so, I'll just step over to you and you can deal with other two how ever you deem fit." Blaise said smiling happily as he walked over to stand next to Aries putting his arm around her and looking smugly at his other friends.

"You traitor!" Draco hissed at Blaise who shrugged. "Well, it seems we'll have to obliviate your memories of today from your mind. If you boys would stand still it'll be done very quickly." Aster said all business like, taking out her wand. "Wait!" Draco shouted as Aster raised her wand. "I can help you! My father is one of those people locked up there! I want to help!" The girls still looked skeptically at him. "It's still not good enough, I don't trust you enough." Aster said apologetically, raising her wand again.

"I KNOW WHERE THEY BURIED YOUR FATHER." He shouted in a desperate attempt, asters wand faltered as she looked to her sisters. "Do you really?" Aurora asked stepping forth, Draco nodded quickly. "Where." Aries demanded.

"I'm not telling you until I have your word that you won't obliviate me." Draco said firmly, the sisters seemed to be mulling it over before they answered. "Deal." Aurora answered. "Now tell us." Draco shook his head. "I want an unbreakable vow." He demanded.

Aurora let a small giggle escape her mouth. "You're demanding an unbreakable vow from those above you? From people superior to you, your princess's, the people you should be bowing down to. No, I think you'll find that we are people of our word should you choose to not trust that then we shall just obliviate you." Draco looked taken aback before nodding and bowing his head lowly. "Apologies princess Aurora. Won't happen again, I trust you fully." Aurora nodded approvingly.

Theo stood shaking. "Please don't obliviate me!" He said looking pleadingly into Asters eyes. "We have to Theo, we can't have this secret getting out!" Aster looked sadly at Theo. "should I obliviate everything?" Aries put a hand on Asters shoulder. "I think it would be best."

"Everything? So essentially you're gonna make me start my whole life again from the age of 18?!" Theo shouted. "It's for the best we'll send you to America." Aster said raising her wand. "Obli-" she stopped as her wand was pulled from her grasp by Theo's disarming spell he had sent silently towards her. "Over my dead body." He growled out. Asters eyes narrowed. "That can be arranged." Aurora snapped bring up her wand arm. "No, I want this fight between me and Aster. I thought you liked me. I thought that you LIKED ME." Theo shouted at Aster loudly. "It doesn't matter if I liked you or not you idiot! I have a mate! I don't just get to decide who I end up with!"

"I don't care! You were going to just send me away without a second thought." Theo sent a bat bogey hex at aster. Aries raised her wand to hit Theo but aster stopped her. "This is my battle Aries." She said firmly. "If I can't obliviate you, I'll just drown till you die then blame it on you falling asleep in the bath!" Aster said as she gathered up a ball of water around Theo, who was frozen in fear.

"Do we really have to take such drastic measures?" Draco asked, only to be pulled back by Blaise who knew they were no match against the girls. "Stay out of it unless you want to end up like him." Aster spat.

Theo's Pov

The water built itself around me, I was incased in it. I didn't bother fighting it I accepted my fate. I was there for about two minutes when I realised I could breath freely in the water. As though it had no effect on me.

It hit me like a brick. I was asters mate. She couldn't kill me, even if she wanted to! I laughed.

Normal Pov

Aster heard him laugh and she burned with rage. She dropped him to the ground, taking no notice of the fact that he wasn't even gasping for breath. Her sisters did though, they looked on in surprise.

"Agh!" Aster screamed sending a blast of fire at Theo who stood there smirking. She lifted the fire and looked at the guy who picked up an imaginary piece of dirt off his robes, flicked it away then grinned at her. "That all you got?" Theo asked with a boyish grin.

Aster burned with rage and sent ball after ball of fire at him. Exhausting herself both physically and magically. "Okay. That's enough aster it's obvious what's happened here isn't it?" Aurora said bringing a stop to her sisters rampage. "Yes," aster seethed. "this twat won't just die already!" Aries rolled her eyes at her sister. "Oh please Daisy, you're not stupid. He's your mate." The already red aster burned even brighter. "You mean I'm stuck with him for the rest of my life?" She asked furiously.

"Yep." Theo said popping the 'p'. Aster glared at him. "I can feel the love from all the way over here honey." He said his voice dripping with sarcasm. "Don't test me! I can still use a wand. Now hand it over." Aster said, sticking out her hand for her wand.

"Ah, ah, ah. You see aster now that we're mates I think you'll find that if I get hurt you get hurt, of I die you die. You see the pattern here? I think you'd do well to start liking me." Aster stared at him. "I do like you." She said exasperatedly.

"Funny way of showing it!" Theo said angrily. "You don't understand how much work we've put into this! If I thought for one second that anyone was gonna compromise our plan I'd kill them without a second thought. This is too important for me, for us. We'll finally have a family. I'm not letting anyone ruin that for us." She said heatedly.

Theo looked at her in surprise. "Well then, I apologise. I didn't realise how important this was to you." Aster sighed. "It's okay." She said as she hugged him. "I'm glad you're my mate Theo." Theo smiled into her hair. "I'm glad I'm your mate too."
