A New Life (Discontinued)

Chapter 17: The Plan's In Action

Celestia's PoV

I woke up and got out of bed. It was a Saturday, and I planned to go and visit mum and dad. I went and got dressed quickly then went downstairs.

"Riddle manner!" I said, making sure not to wake anyone as I flooed to my home.

"Mum! I'm home!" I yelled up the stairs. I went to mum's and dad's room. Mum came out and gave me a hug.

"Hey, sweet pea." She said.

"Hi, mum," I said.

"How is the plan going?"

"It's going well. Even if she turned pureblooded, she never will be." Mum laughed.

"Great! Now, do you have a boyfriend?" Mum asked. I blushed crimson.

"Mum! No! I usually just bang and run." I said, whispering the last part. We laughed.

"Hello, darling. Bella, mind giving us a moment?" Dad said. We turned around and mum nodded, heading off to the kitchen. I followed dad back to his study.

"Now, the plan?" He asked.

"Going well, considering I'm watching someone who used to be Hermione Granger!" I said.

"Well, I think that you're doing an excellent job so far," Dad said, kissing my forehead. I smiled and headed out of his study toward the kitchen.

"What's for breakfast?" I asked. Mum handed me a couple of sausages and escorted me to the fireplace. I said a quick goodbye and flooed back to school. Luckily, nobody was in the common room, so I headed to the Great Hall for breakfast.

Hermione's PoV

I was at breakfast when Celestia came in. She sat down next to me and filled her plate. I stared at her in disgust as she ate.

"Cel, you look like Ron with manners," I said. She swallowed her food and turned towards me.

"Never compare me to Weasel." She said, stuffing her mouth with the sausages and continuing to eat. I scoffed and sighed. I could never get her to stop.

"Anyway, I wanted to hang out today, considering that we never get to," I said. Celestia chewed slower to give herself thinking time.

"I can't," she finally said. I nodded, a bit disappointed, though. Celestia saw my face and her face softened.

"I really wish I could, but I told Draco I would help him with something today." She said. I nodded.

"Could I come and help?" I asked innocently. Celestia wasn't falling for it though, and she gave me a smirk.

"Sure. I'm meeting him in 15 minutes, so we better hurry." Celestia said. I was shocked but shook it off. Celestia grabbed my arm and dragged me to our room. When we got there, she grabbed something that I couldn't see, as well as our book bags. She then grabbed my arm again and dragged me to the top of the astronomy tower. Draco was already there. He saw me and look surprised. He looked, confused, at Celestia.

Celestia's PoV

I went over to Draco. He looked nervous. I was confused, as he was never nervous.

"Hey, Drake," I said. He looked at me for using the nickname I gave him. Hermione sniggered. We looked at her.

"Muggle thing," she said. I nodded, still confused. 

"So, Cel?" Draco asked. I nodded for him to go on. He looked at Hermione, then back at me, saying, "No offense, but why is Hermione here?" I was confused until I saw the look of urgency on his face.

"Oh!" I said. I then turned to Hermione.

"Sorry Hermione, I guess this wasn't to study. You can leave." I said. Hermione was disappointed but left. I shut and locked the door behind her, making sure to spell it so she wouldn't be able to eavesdrop.

"Brat," I muttered. Draco gave me a ferocoius stare.

"Sorry!" I said. "Sheesh." I looked towards him. We were about the same height, so I could easily look into those angry eyes.

"Cel, I have a problem." He said.

"Of course, everyone comes to me with their problems," I said.

"Anyways, I have two. One, I think I like Hermione. Two, I think your dad is back." He said. I laughed.

"It's that obvious, huh?" I asked. Draco looked confused.

"What do you mean." He said. I laughed a laugh that could easily beat my fathers.

"What do I mean? Who do you think I said goodbye to when I got here, my first day? Why do you think the dark marks are now darker than ever? It's because my father is back! So is my mom, the one who started it all!"I said.

"Aunt Bella? You're my cousin?" Draco asked.

"No, I'm your sister. Of course, I'm your cousin. Who else? And my family and I have a plan, and you won't be able to stop us. Now, tell anyone, and your family will be nothing but a faint memory in the back of your mind. With your dad in Azkaban, all you have is your sister and mother, and they will be dead if you tell a living soul, that includes the ghosts." I said. Draco looked scared of me as my eyes flashed red. I could see it reflected in the glass. There were no loopholes in this, and how could he contact the dead.

"Now, about the Hermione conundrum," I said, seemingly back to normal. He looked dazed for a second but shook his head to clear it, telling me about how Hermione was the greatest gal and how he'd love to get a date with her.

"Okay, ' she said once he was done, "Meet me up here tonight. I'll make sure you get your date." I smirked and he gave me a hug. I hugged him back.

Third PoV

Little did they know, Draco's sister was listening when Celestia talked about her parents, and went away when she seemingly went back to normal.
