A/N: I can't thank you reviewers enough, thank you and keep reviewing. Oh

and one other thing. In tast ast chapter I said that Lucius is going to be

teaching dada and earlier in the story I had said that it was going to be

Remus teaching it. Well they are both teaching it. They will definitely need

two teachers there since it is going to be a combined class with all four

houses in it together. I hope that clears a little confusion up for some people

and one another question someone asked me what exactly was Draco's

second form An Abraxan is type of winged horse that are immensely strong

and large. I hope that helps. If any one else has any questions please don't

hesitate to ask. I aim to please after all.

Chapter 13: That's Why

Lucian was sitting at the kitchen table with his forehead pressed against it.

The coolness was soothing against his pounding headache. He wondered

what was going on between Draco and his father. He hoped that everything

would turn out ok. His mind was still reeling with the news that Lucius had

been a spy for Dumbledore. Even his father hadn't known where Lucius's

true allegiances had lied. He wondered if Draco believed what his father was

telling him, Merlin he wished that he could be in there with Draco. This was

killing him. He needed to know if Draco was ok, Lucian wanted to be there

for Draco after all he had been there every step of the way for him for the

past three years. Just as his father sat a cup of tea in front of him Lucius

walked into the kitchen sat down opposite of Lucian and dropped his head in

his hands. All heads were turned toward him.

"Well Albus, I have just one question. How did Draco know about his

mother and what had happened at the meeting?" Lucius asked without lifting

his head from his hands.

Severus glanced at Albus and when he nodded his head in consent he looked

at his son and he did the same. Albus cleared his throat, "That is
something I

am sure that Severus and his son would be able to clear up for you."

Lucius looked up at Severus and then at the young man sitting across from

him with a puzzled expression. "How?" he said simply the pain still
showing

clearly in his eyes.

"I have visions, usually at night when I sleep but for some reason I had
one

when I was wide awake." Lucian took a deep breath. "I saw what
happened

and I heard when Voldemort said that my father was the other spy. That's

how Draco knew."

Lucius was shockequotquot;That's why you never told any one that you had a son.

The Ministry would have taken him away from you as soon as they found

out his little gift. And I could just imagine what would have happened to him

if Voldemort found him. I imagine he would have been as sought after as

Potter among the Voldemort and the Deatheaters." He sat there still
shocked.

Something was niggling at the back of his mind about Draco and Sev's son.

Draco had been getting a good many letters from someone this summer and

when he was done reading them his actions just radiated how much he was

in love. Lucius remembered one letter that he had picked up and glanced at

not to read but just to see who it was from. He had been slightly confused

when the letter had been signed 'Onyx' and then it clicked, his memory

flashed back to when he had first talked to Severus early yesterday and what

he had heard Severus say to Draco something about finding an onyx and

leaving it on his bed in the spare room. It finally made sense; at the time he

couldn't understand why Draco would not tell him or hisher her about who

had caught his eye. He knew now that there where two reasons that Draco

didn't tell who his new love was one was that it was another boy and two it

was Severus's son, who no one knew existed. He felt like the weight of the

world had been dropped on his shoulders, his only son was afraid to tell his

father that he was gay. Lucius looked up at Severus and a ghost of a smile

crossed his face. At least his son had good taste.

Severus had been watching Lucius carefully since he had walked into the

kitchen. A few minutes after he had been shocked into silence by the fact the

Lucian was somewhat a seer he saw Lucius take a long look at his son and

then sank into deep thought. Watching the flickers of various emotions

dance through his eyes was something he had never seen Lucius experience.

a look of understanding dawned suddenly onto his Lucius's face as he

glanced sharply at Lucian, Severus was starting to get worried and he

wondered what exactly Lucius had discovered about his son. But when

Lucius faint smile caught his eye his panic subsided a bit.

At this time Albus decided that he should break the uneasy silence, "Well,
I

think that I need to head u my my office and gather the necessary items for

today's press conference."

Lucius looked up at Albus questioningly, "What press conference, what is
it

about?"

Albus turned around and looked at Lucius, "I am sure that Severus will
tell

you the news that I released to the ministry today so you will not be so

shocked when you come up to the conference." And then he turned back

around and swept noiselessly out of the chambers.

Severus shook his head that man had to have been in Slytherin when he was

here, Gryffindor my ass he thought to himself. So Albus didn't want him to

tell Lucius the whole truth. He supposed that it would be better that way, the

less people that know the safer Lucian was. He looked at Lucian and seen

that he was watching him with a calculating look that was saying "What is

that old man up to, and what are you going to tell him?"

"Lucian why don't you take Draco to your room so that he can freshen up a

bit before we head upstairs for the conference." Severus said to Lucian so

that he could talk to Lucius privately.

Lucian nodded and stood and walked out the door. Lucius watched the

young man walk in to the living room and before the door swung shut he

watched as he gathered Draco up in his arms. At least his son was in good

hands at the moment, now to find out what the news was that Albus needed

to call a conference for. He had a feeling in the pit of his stomach that it
had

something to do with Potter.

Severus sat down in the chair that his son had vacated and wearily ran his

hands through his hair. "Three weeks ago Minerva and I were summoned by

Albus to go and check on Mr. Potter at his Aunt and Uncles home in Surrey.

When he got there we found out that Harry had been beaten severely by his

muggle Uncle. Minerva and I brought him back to Hogwarts Pop Poppy tried

to heal him but the damage was extensive especially to his head and internal

organs. He slipped into a coma shortly after being brought here. He died last

night."
