New Beginnings

Prologue: Malfoy?

A 20-year-old Harry Potter was sitting in his desk organizing some old case files that he had to return when there was a knock on his door.
"Come in"
A man with tired eyes came inside with a file. "Good morning, Harry. I have a new case for you" said the man while handing over the folder and getting a long sip of his coffee. "'Morning, Harvey. What's it about?"

"Missing ex death eater. One of the few that weren't sent to Azkaban" he said gruffly. Harry opened the file and stared wide eyed. "Malfoy?"

"Yeah. Reported missing about 6 months ago by a friend but we just thought he was trying to stay on the down low. However the ministry thought it was suspicious he didn't have wand activity. Later found out he wasn't in any of the Malfoy properties." Harvey filled Harry in on the case while still looking hungover.

"Why is the ministry following his wand activity? He's not a minor anymore" Harry said confused.

Harvey raised an eyebrow, "You didn't know? We keep tabs on ex deaths eaters. Never know when they'll try and bring back that noseless freak". Harry slowly nodded.

"Okay. So this is a missing person case or are we trying to send him away? Doesn't seem he's done anything."
"Well, you just have to look for him. See if he's into any voodoo whoohoo shit and report back." Harvey said while walking out the room.

Harry stood up following after him but stopped right on his door frame. "What about you? We're partners, where you going?"

"I'm sure you can tell I was drunk last night. I punched the boss's secretary last night. I got paid suspension thought so I'm outta here. Good luck with the mission" he said while still walking down the hall not turning to face Harry who just laughed while shaking his head.

Harry went back to his desk and looked at the file. "Now where did you go Malfoy?"
