Kathlyn Malfoy Found Alive!

Hogwarts Headmaster Lucius Malfoy, had agreed to an interview with me, Diane Valentine of the Daily Prophet. When I arrived at Hogwarts, I had found that they had the strength of the security tightened. I found that everyone coming into the castle where checked to make sure that they are who they said they were, there were no spells on the person that could be a controlling spell like the Imperious Curse. They also would check to make sure that nothing with Dark Magic came into the school. This made me wonder just why it hadn’t been done before.

Once I was taken to the Headmaster’s office, I saw that there were a few more people in the room then just the Headmaster like I had thought there would be. The first one was an elder female with silver streaked red hair and green eyes. The other three looked to be a few years younger than the Headmaster. The first man looked a lot like the Headmaster, same with the woman. The last man looked like a blend of the elder woman and the Headmaster.

Lucius Malfoy: Please, sit and I will tell you just why you are here today with us.

Diane Valentine: I have to say that I am grateful for this interview, Headmaster.

L.M.: Please, call me Lucius. It is my pleasure to give you an interview.

D.V: Alright, Lucius. Shall we get started?

L.M.: Let’s. I would first like to introduce the four other people here with us. The first is, Kathlyn Malfoy, my step-mother.

D.V.: Pardon me, but I thought that you Mrs. Malfoy were dead.

Kathlyn Malfoy: Albus Dumbledore had spread that rumour. I had been held against my will in a house he owned. I escaped and hid until I knew that Dumbledore wouldn’t be able to come after me again. When I read that he had been arrested, I started to make my way back here.

D.V.: Oh, no. It sounds like Dumbledore has more things that he has to answer to.

L.M.: The next people I would like to introduce are the two men and the woman. They are my brothers and sister, triplets. Abraxas Marius Malfoy, Cyane Lucy Malfoy and Lex Finlay Malfoy.

D.V.: Mrs. Malfoy, did anyone know that you were pregnant when your eldest daughter was taken and you locked up?

K.M.: Please call me Lyn. No, I didn’t even know until almost two months after I was taken. It was just like when I was pregnant with Ayden. I didn’t know that I was pregnant with her until I felt her start to move. I just wish that Abraxas lived to meet his other children.

D.V.: This never should have happened. Could you tell me which of you sirs are which?

The younger man that looked so much like his elder brother spoke: I am Abraxas. I am the eldest of the triplets.

The younger that looked like a mix of his parents spoke: I am Lex. I am the youngest and the surprise baby.

D.V.: Surprise baby?

Lyn: [Laughs] I knew I was having twins, but not triplets. Lex was a surprise to me, not that I minded at all. I had my babies all healthy and a piece of my husband. They also reminded me of Luc when he was young. They made me feel close to my family when I was stuck in hiding, unable to tell my husband in fear that Dumbledore would find me and take my last three babies.

L.M.: This is why we have agreed to have an interview with you. We wanted everyone to know that Kathlyn Malfoy is alive and well, bringing me two brothers and another sister. Giving my son, nephew and myself a family we never really got to have.

D.V.: What is it like finding out that Ayden had lived and had a son?

Lyn: Amazing. I am so happy to know that she lived, married and had a baby. What really ticks me off is that madman that killed Ayden, my son in-law and tried to kill my grandson. What has a one year old baby ever done to him? From what I heard, that man wasn’t against purebloods at all. If he wasn’t, then why is he killing purebloods? Ayden Liene ‘Lily’ Malfoy Potter was a pureblood.

D.V.: All I know is that everyone thought that Lily, I mean Ayden was a Muggleborn.

L.M.: Just because someone magical had grown up in the Muggle world, it doesn’t mean that they are a Muggleborn. That is why I think we should educate all Magical children at a younger age and bring any magical child in a bad home or being abused should be brought into our world and adopted by those that want to be parents and haven’t had the chances like some of us.

D.V.: That is a great idea.

L.M.: That is only some of the ideas I and others are talking about. We will be sure to share them in time.

D.V.: What would you do about the Muggles?

L.M.: Not much really. Just make sure that the Muggle parents of Magical children cannot tell others and have them meet others like them that have a Magical child.

D.V.: That sounds like it would be a great idea. It would keep us safe and give the parents others to talk to that are just like them. I think it would be great to also have a Magical person available to talk to that understands Muggles and can explain our World.

L.M.: [Smiling] That is a great idea, Miss. Valentine. We need more people like you in our world. I think that we could use your help in making these thoughts come into play.

There you have it. Kathlyn Malfoy mother of Ayden ‘Lily’ Potter, step-mother of Lucius Malfoy, Grandmother of Draco Malfoy and Harry Malfoy Potter, is alive and back in the United Kingdom. He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named had killed Ayden Malfoy Potter, a pureblood. How many more purebloods are we going to let him to kill before we finally stand up for ourselves?
