One Bite (Blairon)

A Letter

Blaise's Pov

"What did you want to speak about Madam?" I asked Madam Pomfrey once we got into her office. "Well, Professor Hagrid and I did some digging and found out more about your condition." She said, a slightly grave tone to her voice. "Well, you, Parkinson and Malfoy did inform me of your sclera and your irises going black, well, we've figured out why." She said, sitting at her desk and sifting through a few books until she found the one that she was looking for. It was a forest green color, like how Draco describes Potter's eyes with the title, The Evolution of Giants." What did you find, Madam?" I asked, gulping shortly afterwards. She turned to me in her chair and fixed the book onto her lap.

"There are five types of Giants. There's Level 1,which consists of normal Giants and normal Half-Giants like Professor Hagrid. Then there's Level 2, Giants or Half-Giants with special abilities."
She said, looking down at the book a few times for reference." Level 3 consists of Giants ( or Half-Giants) with special abilities and mates. Level 4 Giants have all of those skills, and increased strength and agility." She said. I looked at her confused and she must have noticed because she stood up and put a comforting hand on my shoulder." What level does that make me?" I asked her, my voice cracking ever so slightly." You, Mr Zabini are a Level 5 Half-Giant. You have a special ability, a mate, increased strength and agility.." She stopped. "And, you grow larger every time you shift. The highest a Giant has ever shifted is 27 feet." She added at the end.

My head was spinning and I couldn't seem to grasp what she was saying.
"Please don't faint, again." She said and I chuckled nervously. "If you don't mind Madam, I will go inform Draco and Pansy seeing as they're helping me through this." I said, needing some fresh air. "Come to me if you have any questions." Madam Pomfrey called as I left her office.
I closed the door behind me and nearly jumped out of my skin when I felt someone push me onto the opposite wall. How on earth did he get here so quickly?!
"I didn't think you were still here." I sneered. Weasley chuckled before kissing my neck hungrily. "You know, if I moan Madam Pomfrey's gonna beat our-Ah-ah, Weasley!" I hissed. "Sorry, I just....your scent is-" He sighed, taking a long breath in. "Goblin got your tongue?" I smirked. He backed away from me and narrowed his eyes.
"That's what I thought." I chortled, walking out of the hospital wing. Now to find Draco and Pansy. After a while I found the two sitting in front of the Slytherin fireplace, the green flames illuminating their faces. "What did Pomfrey say?" Pansy asked the minute she saw me. I sighed and sat down on the couch. I explained the 'Levels' and how she had told me that I'm Level 5, earning a gasp from Pansy. "Well, do you know what 'special ability' you have?" Draco asked. I shook my head. "I guess we'll find out." I replied, releasing a long sigh I didn't notice I'd been holding.
Fear was still churning in my stomach and I had an uneasy feeling that something bad is bound to happen.
"Blaise, calm down. We'll get through this together okay." Draco reassured, putting a comforting hand on my arm. I smiled at him before relaxing into the couch. There has to be more to this. It's too out of the blue, I thought to myself as I went to sleep that night. There has to be. I frowned and chuckled at myself, trying to calm down but my heart thought otherwise. "I should just sleep, shouldn't I? I've got a big day tomorrow anyway." I said and with that last thought I drifted into sleep.

Ron's Pov

I stired a bit. I could hear muffled voices but they all stopped when I groaned and stretched, my eyes still closed. I opened them and nearly grabbed my wand out of surprise.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY RON!"

(OK, I know. Ron's birthday is on the 1st of March but for the story it has to be earlier, sorry)

Hermione, Harry, Ginny, Luna, Dean, Seamus and Neville grinned. I grinned up at them. "I was beginning to think you all forgot." I chuckled. They all rolled their eyes before Luna excitedly pointed at the foot of my bed. "Open your presents!" She exclamed, practically bouncing on the balls of her feet. I grinned at her before leaning over my bed and grabbing the closest present that I could see. It was medium sized with maroon wrapping paper and a note. I opened the present and almost screamed. It was a glass Wizard's Chess set. "Thanks Mione!" I grinned, pulling her down into a hug. I then opened Harry's present except this time I did scream.
"It's a Nimbus 2003! Harry!" I screamed, practically beaming at him.
I gave him a hug as well before diving into the other presents. I got a big pillow that resembled Quidditch goalposts from Dean, a box of Pumpkin Pasties from Seamus, a venus fly trap plant from Neville, a packet of Droobles Best Blowing-Gum from Ginny and a pair of those funny glasses from Luna that can apparently trace racksperts? Don't know what those are. I smiled at everyone and gave them each a big hug before we got dressed and left for breakfast, making sure I kept the familiar ring from two days before hidden in my pocket. When we got to the Gryffindor table alot of Gryffindors turned to face us and shouted happy birthday to me. I blushed at the attention and thanked everyone. Just as we were about to sit down, another 'happy birthday' sounded through the Hall and I looked towards the door. Zabini was standing there, Parkinson and Malfoy at his side with the biggest grin on his face. What?! "Did you see-"Harry started but I cut him off cause I already knew what he was about to say." Yes, yes I did. Zabini and I have the same birthday." I sneered. I watched him as he sat down. He was wearing a white turtle neck and white ripped jeans with black combat boots.
He looked, great. Shivering, I rid my head of the thought before an owl came swooping through the window and onto Zabini's shoulder. He took the letter and gave the owl a piece of toast before it flew away. A few seconds later, a similar looking owl flew toward us, landing on the table right in front of me, barely missing a jug of milk. Hermione and Harry peered towards me and waited for me to open it. I did so and stared pointedly at the black letter with white, curly hand writing on it.

To: Ronald Bilius Weasley

Dear grandson,
I hope you are having a splendid 18th birthday. I know this may be very confusing for you and I understand. But you need to keep looking, the answers will reveal themselves in time.
Try to make as many alliances as you can, especially with....other species. The consequences could be dire. I am writing this letter centuries in advance but you must not trust the rest of your kind. My life is soon coming to an end and once I'm dead the other vampires will stop at nothing to get you. You have a very valuable asset and they will do anything to get it. I wish I got the chance to meet you, but my time is nearly over. Tell your mother I miss her will you? There should be something waiting for you in your bedroom, a little birthday present from me to you. It was mine centuries ago, well not exactly cause you'll only read this years after I've written it. But be careful, great dangers lie ahead. If it helps, go to the Restricted Section of the Hogwarts library, I know Molly would've taken you to school there. It's where I went to school. There is a book there that should explain the rest of the
Prophecy that is yet to come. Remember Ronald, don't trust your own kind. Most vampires have turned to those of Voldemort, yes I know, even though it's years before Voldemort existed I have sources that tell me you've already experienced a war. Well, with Riddle dead in your time the vampires are probably looking for you, their only source of power. Just promise me to protect
him and yourself, you're both very powerful and as I said before, the vampires will stop at nothing to get that power. On that note, I have to go before they find me. Goodluck Ron and goodbye.

Love: Your Great (x6) Grandfather
Sanguis Bilius Thornhold
