Our Destiny (Lily Potter and Scorpius Malfoy)
Chapter 6: Torn Like A Boggart In A Crowd
It was dawn. The sun was rising up, dim strains of light barely peeking through the clouds. It was cold for an August morning.
Layla was standing on a hill, waiting for the news she's been expecting. She is about to press her thumb against the Dark Mark when she hears an apparating sound. Her head snaps in the direction of it, a cold smile appearing on her face. There he was.
"I am pleased you finally agreed to join me, Draco." The man with platinum blond hair takes an unsure bow, kissing her cloak.
"The pleasure is all mine, Madame."
"Is it now?" A tone of anger creeps itself in her voice and she can almost sense the shivers running down Draco's spine. He nods nervously and looks around himself as if there were people who could see him dedicate his loyalty to her. "No one's there, Draco. It's just the two of us right now." She gets closer and pulls him in for a passionate kiss. He hesitantly returns it and backs away quickly as he senses her tongue changing. She hisses with her snake-like tongue and her eyes glow a deep blood red. Draco tries to stand up while moving away, but falls straight back down. She waves her wand and he is lifted in the air with his arms wide apart and his whole body stretched. Her face goes back to normal now and his panic disappears. She puts him down and demands him to speak.
"Madame, the aurors know nothing about what's going on, because I've called the muggles. They only know that Robin was a ... one of us. No one could connect the dots, mainly because the muggle examiners have already cut him apart and the Mark faded." She gave him a nod.
"Good job, Draco. I am impressed. You may leave now. I'll call in shortly so be prepared." The pale man nods and disappears with a loud sound.
Layla then takes off too. In a sudden movement she throws herself at the ground and drags her body further like a snake. Her tongue and eyes change again as she is joined by her snake friend Cleo. They travel to a lake in the forest. An abandoned place nobody visits.
As she picks herself up she looks human again. She speaks to her snake and it tells her that the wizards aren't very familiar with what happened in Little Hangleton. The aurors were trying to tone everything down. Perfect. With that information she pulls up her sleeve and presses the thumb on the skull. The snake starts moving and twisting like mad and she ignores the pain that once again shoots through her arm.
They start apparating all around her in a circle. The morning sun barely shines through the branches, but it reflects on the lake and the light makes a way right into their eyes.
"Welcome, my friends." Layla greets them while caressing her snake's big head. "Today we start a new era. My era. We will get rid of mudbloods and blood traitors once and for all, starting with Hogwarts students. I've already sent the letters for muggleborn first years to come to this very lake behind us, where the train shall pick them up. They will come with their parents so we'll be able to get rid of some muggles too. And I'll make sure Harry Potter finds out about the massacre. You and I will kill more and more and he won't be able to do anything but watch as we tear his world apart. He'll come last and I'll be the one to fight him. He shall fall under my hand!" she shouts passionately and many of her followers cheer with her. But not Draco. What can he do to stop this? He has changed, he has a good life, amazing children and a loving wife. He started to abandon them more and more lately. But how can he do anything? The woman in front of him is a monster! He takes a glimpse of her body once again changing. She was getting taller and even slimmer than she already was, her eyes glowing red again and she hissed together with her snake. The Death Eaters clapped and screamed loudly and she laughed. It was the coldest laugh Draco has ever heard. She was worse than her father, far more worse. And she laughed and laughed and laughed like a maniac and her followers laughed with her. It was finally their time again.
