Chapter 117 - Second Year (III) & A Surprise Request

n
nPOV Reo(Edgar)
nIt has been two months since the new term started, nothing really great happened except a few Slytherins landed themselves in month long detentions with just a single incident of bullying.
nThe same was with the Weasley Twins, they were ok but except that I honestly care about them. Apparently after the term started they pulled a prank and like always their target was Slytherins. The first was a prank as it didn't cause any harm and everyone laughed and giggled. So, they were let off by Minnie Gi, but this gave them more courage and pulled another prank but this time it was on Slytherin firsties, the prank made them bawl out their eyes. Due to this the twins landed themselves in a month long detention.
nOl Twinkles tried to overturn the detention on his golden lions but Minnie Gi growled on him like a lioness whose tail was being stepped on... Ol Twinkles knew what was good for him so, he immediately sat down. Minnie Gi even called the Mama Weasley and gave her a warning. The next day the Twins got a Howler...
nLuna was pure like an angel, ah... what more can say about her? She was the most gentle soul I have the blessing to ever meet. Momo and Rumi also agreed with me on that. Luna has become our good friend... I can happily say that she was my second friend in Hogwarts. First was Dora but now that's a different relationship. Luna was avoided like a plague by other of her classmates or dormmates so I always ask Luna to stay with our group which she happily does.
nJust give her a pudding and she will forget all the worries of the world. She had also taken our individual interview for her father's magazine 'The Quibbler'. Our interview was published and this made her magazine a lot more popular... seeing that dear old Rita send a message through Amelia asking for a interview. I told her that we can do that after Christmas.
nNow, two stupid girls still tried to bully Luna even after they knew that she was our good friend. They stopped when they weren't able to enter the Ravenclaw dorms for two days straight.
nEven if other students opened the door for them they weren't immediately thrown out of the dorms... of course we Ravenclaws were the prime suspects for this. The three of us were even called into Flitwick's office but we just behaved like we knew nothing. Flitwick's expression was priceless, everyone in the staff knew we were responsible but weren't able to punish us because they didn't have any proff... I know a stupid reason but I have no reason to say that out loud and earn detention...
nOl Twinkles even called us in his office... the conversation was kind of 'Edgar my boy... how are you?' then. 'Edgar my boy is there anything you know about the problem with the entrance with Ravenclaw dorms?' After several questions like this he finally let us go since he the conversation was going nowhere... he tried to compulse me and the girls, didn't work, we didn't look into his eyes so no passive leglimency... he even gave us lemon drops laced with maind altering potions, didn't work. He became frustrated and let us go...
nThe bracelets made by Nemuri and Momo protected us from the Compulsions and Lemon Drops. Well, Ol Twinkles's time will come... I will let him free reign... well as a as reign he can muster for now...
nWe found another thing that Luna was really good at keeping our secrets. She didn't even bother when Rumi once became careless and blurted out about killing Dear old Lucy... Luna just wished me luck and went back on reading on a book of magical creatures. This was one month ago... well, even if I wanted to kill Lucy, I needed the location of their house.
nSo, tonight I finally found the ferret bouncing around in the halls around the Ice Princess of Slytherin... prouncing about how great he was, how great his father was, how much money her had. The ferret was already telling her how lucky she was that he had taken any interest in her. She should already get on her knees in front of her... how he would pleasure her in the bed.
nThe girl in question... the Ice Princess of Slytherin looked at him like he was a bug waiting to be squashed under her heels. Honestly, if I would in her place then I would long cruciod him or used castration hex... I have to say, I have come to admire her level of patience...
nI silently stayed disillusioned... after all I can't rummage through the ferret's mind if the Greengrass is here. When I saw the ferret leave the Great Hall alone with his butt buddies I followed him. This was the first time in two months... two **ing months when he had left the Great Hall on his own and now he had come here to prouch around like a ferret. The Ice Princess finally blew her gasket and in an flash stunned the ferret who dropped on the floor like a sack of potatoes.
n
"I would really like if you show yourself
" Daphne said in her usual cold voice. I am damn sure that nobody is around me because of my power... only the three of us are here. And I find it quite unbelievable that she found me out but she did... it must be some artifact she is carrying with her. After all she is a pureblood witch and they could carry something that would alert them if someone is hiding around them. After all no one wants to get surprised and taken advantage of... and Daphne Greengrass is the heriess of Greengrass family...
nI decided to show myself and canceled my disillusion and walked out of the shadow. Her face remained completely stoic. She is really good in Occlumency...
n
"How did you find me?
" I asked her with in usual attitude.
n
"That's none of your business! Now, why are you here? Do you also want to take advantage of me like this ** stain?
" Daphne said coldly and pointed her wand at me. I didn't even faze...
n
"You see... I don't like when someone answers me
" I said with a smile and raised my hand towards her. Daphne sent a stupify spell on me which I swatted away with my other hand covered in lightning armor. I saw Daphne's eyes grew wide...
n
"Imperio
" I decided to go with the Imperius Curse, after all if she has an artifact related with finding people she could easily have another artifact with would protect her from her Obliviation. As soon as the Imperius took place, her body became completely lax... I don't feel bad to do this after all I don't care... but I can't have my cover blown like this... I know this girl would not go to Dumbles but she would try to hold this over my head to use me... after all she is a Slytherin...
n
"Now, answer, how did you find me? Do you have any artifact to protect you from Obliviation
" I said.
n
"I found you using an artifact, it let's me find if anyone around me. I have my heiress ring that protects me from Obliviation
" Daphne answerd in an monotone voice but she had a look of euphoria on her face meaning she was well under my Imperius.
n
"Hand me you wand and any other wands if you are carrying
" I said and Daphne immediately handed me her wand and took out another wand from her right ankle and handed me. Seeing that she didn't move I released her from Imperius Curse. Daphne's mask broke for the first time and backed away to the wall with a horrified look on her face.
n
"Make a magical vow that you will keep everything about me secret and I will let you go, without any harm
" I said and used her wand and wrote the vow in air, and threw her the second wand. The vow contained that she won't speak or write anything she saw or try to harm me or anyone near me.
nDaphne fearfully took the vow, I had to take this way because of her heiress ring. I can't take it off and if she herself takes it off her father would be notified. Ancient magics work just like that. With the vow done, I handed her the second wand and beamed at her with the brightest smile I could muster.
n
"Good girl... you are awesome. I know we could become friends
" I said and used my powers to pick up Malfoy, Daphne was gobsmacked seeing my wandless magic and stayed at the side. I revived the ferret...
n
"How dare...
" his rant froze when he saw me happily smiling at him.
"You!!
" the ferret screamed.
n
"Yes me, now will you tell me where your house is?
" I asked him in a happy voice.
n
"Let me go you half breed!!
" Malfoy screamed. Since he was frozen due to my powers he wasn't able to get away from me or pull out his wand.
n
"I take that as a no... Leglimens
" I said and bashed his shields and rummaged through his mind. I quickly found everything I needed... the ferret was already screaming loud. After I got everything I stopped the spell and pulled out of his mind. I also found that his ring didn't have a function like Daphne's.
n
"Obliviate, you were disturbing Miss Greengrass here, she didn't react to your tripe and you finally ran away like a bitch you are saying that you were going to bitch about this to your dear father
" I said to the glassy eyed ferret who walked away after I gave him the command. I was also about to walk away but Daphne called me from back.
n
"What are you going to do?
" Daphne asked in a fearful look.
n
"Well, since I am a good boy I will tell you. I am going to kill his father
" I said with a smile. Daphne looked like she sucked a lemon when heard I am good boy. She can't say any of my secret to I am free to tell her. I have learnt a lit about vows and oaths through research after all. After hearing that I am going to kill Lucius she snorted like any typical pureblood witch.
n
"Funny... but if you are able to kill him then Greengrass family will owe you greatly and as a Heiress I promise to draw an alliance with Ravenclaw family, as a heiress I give you my word
" Daphne said and her Ice Princess mask was completely back.
nAn alliance with the Greengrasses would be really helpfull after all Greengrasses were neutral family even in the last war and always have been a gray family. Getting an alliance with them will also help some other families to get together with us.
n
"But why... how would it help your family?
" I asked curiously. After all in story Draco married her sister.
n
"Lucius Malfoy is using his money to bribe the ministry and push my father into a corner. He wants to draw a marriage contract with our family, my father is currently holding back but he won't be able to for long. If the marriage contract is drawn then my Lucius will get 6 Neutral families on his side in the voting block
" Daphne said.
n
"Oh... ok don't worry, you will get the good news tomorrow or day after tomorrow... now bye. Don't try to freeze anyone Ice Princess
" I said while walking away from her and received a glare from her...
n----------------------------------------
nA
/N: Daphne Greengrass won't be in harem but I needed to do this so that I can get the alliance with Neutral families on Wizengamot. And getting support of 6 Neutral families on a voting block can't be ignored. So, please don't say it was useless drama...
