Draco’s New Lover
Chapter 12: Hospital Wing
Draco ran after Melissa down the hall. There was nothing there so he had no idea what it was she was chasing. She stopped suddenly in front of him and he almost ran straight into her. “I was really hoping it wouldn’t have been you. You’ve been causing all types of trouble for me you know.” Draco thought that she had finally gone insane. She was talking to thin air, only when he looked again, it wasn’t thin air. “What did you expect?” She looked at the woman in front of them. “Nothing but bad from you” She smiled. Before Draco could even blink Melissa was thrown to the other side of the dungeon and straight into a suit of armor. Students started appearing wondering what the noise was about. The women approached Draco. She walked around him observing him. “Why him?” She asked looking over to wear Melissa was now standing. Melissa just stared at her. “Well, ya gonna introduce me or what?” Melissa looked at her then at Draco. “Draco Malfoy, meet Helena Crow. My godmother.” Draco looked from the women to Melissa.
Helena shook Draco’s hand. “See now I understand. You’re a Malfoy.” Helena put her hand on Draco’s shoulder. Melissa didn’t want her to poison him. ‘Get your hands off him’ She said into her mind. Helena smiled and ran a finger down Draco’s face. ‘Get off him now’ she repeated more sternly. “I should’ve realize that you were a Malfoy, you do have the hair.” She said twirling a finger in his hair. Melissa wouldn’t stand for it. She ran as fast as she could and slammed her godmother into the wall before leaning in to whisper in her ear, “You should know by now you can’t do whatever you want anymore. I’m not your little puppet anymore so now I will do something about it.” Helena thought something was different about her. She scanned her and smiled. “Oh Melissa, you’ll have to do better than that! You shouldn’t keep secrets from your family” Melissa looked confused for a split second but as soon as she realized what she meant she had a knife cutting through her stomach. “Come on, you should know that won’t do anything.” That was correct, it couldn’t do anything but hurt. That was what she thought until her godmother’s hand lit up with a beautiful purple flame. “No” That was the only word she got out before her godmother shoved her hand into her stomach and sent out a wave of fire. It was the only thing that could break her shields barriers and hurt the child.
She felt Luke and Lily’s presence and knew that no matter what she couldn’t let them get hurt. Everyone was looking in amazement as Melissa stood back up. Everyone was thinking she should be dead. She found her godmother had worked out where her siblings were and tried to run but she was slower and dizzy. If she couldn’t run to her maybe she could still stop her. Melissa moved her hands around and pushed them towards Helena, sending a huge gush of air towards her. Helena was pushed down but got back up and turned to face Melissa. “Shouldn’t you be laying on the ground thinking that your life is over?” Helena asked her. Melissa shook her head. “It’s not like before. You can’t just push me down and expect me to stay there. Not when I have things that are worth fighting for now.”
Helena shook her head. “Well, I guess I’ll have to make you stay down then” Both of Helena’s hands lit up with the purple flames. Melissa smiled and her hands lit up with an equally mesmerizing blue flame. Melissa felt a small heartbeat coming from deep within her. It was faint but it was there. Relief flooded over her but she pushed it aside. She ran behind Helena and burned her hands into her back. The woman turned around and grabbed hold of her neck. Melissa kicked her feet out from under her and managed to not fall with her. Helena got back up and shoved her knife into Melissa’s chest as her fire had gone and she looked too tired to conjure another. Melissa removed the dagger with ease and in turn slit her godmothers stomach and shoved the dagger next to her heart.
“You are damn lucky that you only had to fight with me. You are lucky that I have enough restraint not to kill you right here. However if you see her, I’d advise running. Fast, because she hates you more than me and she would slit your throat where you stood and not think twice about it. Game on Helena, but you should know. I always win.” Helena snickered. “Not this time sweetheart” Melissa let go of her and she covered herself in glamour before leaving. Melissa collapsed on the ground fading out of consciousness. It had taken almost all her strength to keep her other side locked away.
