It was a common misconception that pureblooded children such as the Malfoys were bred from a family that was based solely on hatred. However, that was the farthest from the truth as the eldest of the Malfoy family, Saros, had grown up in a household surrounded by the warmth and love of his parents. He grew up spoiled, holding a sense of entitlement since the time he was young because his parents told him and his little brother, Draco, that they deserved the world. His parents had given Saros no reason not to believe and trust in their word, they gave him no reason for him not to love them, which made the internal battle turn into an all-out war when it came to choosing what side was right and which one was wrong. Saros learns that good and evil is not so black and white when living in a grey world. He will do anything to protect his family, even if it means making the wrong decisions in their eyes. Normally, Angelina Johnson wouldn't even bother with the likes of Saros Malfoy, after all, she has her own life to tend to and she knows the type of person that he is. Spoiled and entitled don't interest the girl, however, there is a moment, where she is a witness to something beyond the typical Malfoy air, a time where Saros shows that he is human and maybe Angelina's got it all wrong about the boy.

Messrs Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs certainly feel quite accomplished after completing what they dub as the Marauder's Map. A map designed to show every classroom, hall, corridor, and even secret passageway of the Hogwarts Castle but also capable of identifying every person, ghost, and poltergeist roaming about. Or so they thought. It takes Elspeth Hayes casually strolling down the corridor one afternoon for the boys to realise that she's not showing up on the map and they want to figure out why. But Elspeth is not about to give away her secrets so easily, after all, a girl has to have her secrets to keep the boys on their toes.

❝If by my life or death I can protect you, I will.❞ The Chosen One is kidnapped from the Dursley household and it turns out to be the best damn thing that's happened to him.

Madilin VanCourt. The VanCourts are famous for being rich, powerful, and prejudice against muggleborns. Sirius Black. The Blacks are famous for the same things. Every member of the two families is sorted into Slytherin, except for Madilin and Sirius. Neither family is happy, Mady and Sirius are outcasts, they should be best friends... right? Wrong! Madilin can't stand Sirius, who developed a crush on her in third year. When sixth year rolls around, the wizarding world is a mess. Voldemort, the darkest wizard the earth has ever seen, is on the rise. Muggleborns are slaughtered, purebloods are more powerful than ever, and Madilin finds herself forced to make a decision that no fifteen year old should make. Should she follow in her families footsteps, or follow her heart and do what's right? Disclaimer*** I initially wrote this story when I was eleven, five whole ass years ago. I'll be the first to admit that the writing in the first chunk of this story is fairly poor and many people have not been hesitant to tell me so through comments or direct messages. I truly can't believe that this has gotten the reception that it has and I am forever grateful to anyone who read this and helped boost the confidence of eleven year old me. I will never delete this story for sentimental reasons but I do feel the need to warn y'all that it is not my best piece of writing (though it is the one that's done the best so what do I know?)
