Lucas & Draco Have A Moment/ Severus Get‘s Into A Fight




It had been several weeks since the school year started. Lucas and Albus had spent many hours trying to find a way to kill Voldemort without putting many people in harms way. But from the looks of things old Voldie had split his soul. And between looking for Myrddin’s Castle and looking for the Horcruxes, Lucas was getting fustrated. And he was lonely as well, I mean he could only talk to his Grandfather about certain things. And most of those centered on the upcoming war.


Dracowas the thought that ran through Lucas, as he was halfway to the dungeons. Lucas felt he really needed to talk to him and square things away with his former friend. When he arrived at the painting to the Slytherin Common Room. He just realized he didn’t have the password. About to turn back around a thought hit him. Parseltongue might work . And looked at the painting again. ~Open in the name of Slytherin’s descendant.~

And to his joy the painting flew open for him to enter. In the Common Room there was just a few first and second years present. And from the look on there faces they were afraid. He wondered briefly is his on Father had said something to them about him. Before he smiled with a bit of warmth and asked if one of them could fetch Draco Malfoy. When they all shook their heads ‘no’. He knew then that someone had said something about him.

“DRACONIS LUCIUS MALFOY, I WANT TO TALK TO YOU!” yelled Lucas , he had to shake his head as the the kids in the room fled at his voice.


“Damn Lucas, you still know how to clear a room.” came the cold draw from Draco as he glided into the room and stood before Lucas.

“What can I say, it’s a gift.” Lucas shrugged as he took in Draco’s features. All he wanted to do was hug him. “I missed you.” Uh, can I get anymore lame? he asked himself as he waited for a response.

“Could have fooled me.” snarled Draco as he looked at Lucas. Hell he missed him too. But he wasn’t about to back down it had been too many years.

“I’m sorry, ok. I thought Uncle Luc was mad at me about. Well you know. And then I was shipped away, I wasn’t sure what kind of reception I would receive.” Lucas admitted with a tight smile, all his emotions masked as was the way of Slytherin.


“What? My parents loved you as one of their own. And just because Father got angry one time. You just forgot we existed. Not even taking the time to let us know you were alright. Father had to hear bits and pieces from Uncle Sev and the Headmaster. And believe me Father and Uncle Sev had a huge row about you being sent off to Atrum Vita. Father even tried to gain custody of you, but Uncle Sev and Aunt Lilly wouldn’t sign. So don’t just stand there and say you’re sorry. Because sometimes sorry just isn’t enough!” Draco growled as his breathing became erratic.


Lucas tried to say something. But Draco held up his hand demanded his silence. Neither of them noticed they had gained an audience. Over half of Slytherin House to be exact.

“You know Mother cried for months. Saying “They sent her baby away from her. And he hasn’t even written.” And “My little Phoenix all alone with those Creatures with no support from his family.” Do you know how hard it was for her? And Father buried himself in his work and left me alone. And it’s all your fault Lucas. Did you even think about us while you were there? Not only did I lose the closest person that I loved as a brother. But I lost a part of my parents as well. Damn it Lucas say something. Was my families love and loyalty to you misplaced? Snarled Draco as he rounded on Lucas.

“Dray, I’m sor…” Lucas was cut of by Draco again.

“Don’t you dare say you’re sorry Lucas. And don’t call me Dray, you lost that privilage when you left and forgot about us.”




“It’s not my fault, I was just a child. A nine year old child Draco. I didn’t know what to think. I had just made Uncle Luc angry and Father was furious. Do you have any idea what I went through the day you and your Father left the Manor. I was beating black and blue Draco. That’s what. And then not long after I healed with out any word from your family. Might I add, that my parents threw me away and shipped me off and forgot I even existed. Starting a new family with out me. And yes I feel terrible about what you all went through. But I didn’t know about any of it. Grandfather was the only one that fought for my right to stay in Britain. I had no clue that Uncle Luc tried to get me. If I had things may have been different.” Lucas hissed as he was about to lose the hold on his emotions, he vanished out of the room.


Draco was in shock, he didn’t know what Lucas had went through. All he was thinking about was himself and his family. Looking around he noticed the crowd they had gained and snarled at them before leaving back to his suite. He needed to think.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Lucas had appeared in the Chamber of Secrets and released his magic will a scream. His whole body hurt not to mention his heart. How could his own Father not tell him the Malfoy’s had been worried about him. And that they wanted him for their own. It would have made the world of difference.

‘Child, precious child are you alright?’ came the concerned voice of Hogwarts .


‘I don’t know Hogwarts, my love. I just don’t know.’ whispered Lucas as he passed out on the stone floor.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hours after Lucas woke, he felt numb. Even though his heart was wary, he could not help the numbness. Deciding he needed to get away he went to his quarters and packed enough belongings for a week. Leaving a note on his Grandfather’s desk he turned into his Phoenix form and flashed out of Hogwarts in blue flames. Not seeing his Grandfather at that moment walk into his office.

Albus didn’t know where the worry was coming from. But he had a feeling it was Hogwarts herself. And the only reason the castle would be worried was if one of her own were in danger or in harms way.


When he made it to his desk, he noticed a piece of parchment with Lucas’s handwriting on the top. Opening it he began to read.

Dearest Grandfather,


I have to leave, at least for alittle while. I need to get my emotions back in order. I’m not sure if Hogwarts would be able to speak to you. So if you’re feeling something not your own it’s her. Draco and I had a moment several hours ago and it didn’t end well. And lets just say I need some time to myself.

I hope this doesn’t mess with any plans you may have had. I promise to be back in a week. If that helps any. Again, please don’t worry. I’ll be fine and stay safe.

Love,
Lucas (your little Merlin)


“Oh Lucas,” sighed Albus Dumbledore as he went in search for Draco Malfoy. He really needed to know what had accured between them. At least the basic’s, he really didn’t want to pry. But this was his grandson that had up and left with out giving any knowledge of where he was going.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Lucas flew until his wings didn’t want to go anymore. He had arrived at Snape Manor. He didn’t know why his instinct brought him there. But he didn’t question it.


Walking up to the door, he rang the bell. Even though this was still technically his home. He didn’t feel it wise to just walk in.


“Master Lucas, yous have come home.” Head Elf Grumpy stated as he motioned Lucas inside.


“So I did Grumpy, though I have no idea why?”


“Needing to remember, Master Lucas?” Grumpy figited beside him.


“Perhaps” was all Lucas replied as he moved up the stairs toward his old room. He didn’t see Grumpy try to stop him.

Lucas opened the door to his room. Only to find out it wasn’t his anymore. The room had be turned into a nursery. He was about to turn around when he heard a whimper coming from inside. And against his better judgment, he went toward the sound.

Inside the crib was Gabriel, his little brother. Lucas decided that it would be alright to pick him up. So he did, thinking that it would do no harm. He would find out in moments that he was wrong.

“Put him down Lucas.” came the cold voice of his Father.


Lucas turned with Gabriel still in his arms with sadness. “Why Father, what have I done to make you hate me so?” As he realized his Mother had also entered the room and handed the baby to her.


“Lilly take Gabriel down to the play room.” Severus stated harshly never taking his eyes off his Heir.

“Now what are you doing here Lucas?”


“This is still my home. Unless you’ll deny me that as well?” snapped Lucas as he watched his Father’s every move. He wouldn’t be caught off guard. He wasn’t a child anymore.

“What have you become Lucas? What has that school turned you into?” growled Severus as he slowly advanced at his son. He could tell that Lucas was on the offensive even though he looked relaxed.


“It’s your fault Father, what I’ve become. You sent me there.” coldly stated Lucas as he moved to a more noticeable offensive stance.



“Yes, I sent you there to become independent. Not to turn you into what you’ve become.” snarled Severus as he stopped his advancement.


“And what have I become Father?” hissed Lucas as his eyes narrowed, his magic building around him in defense.


“Dark! You have become Dark. Darker than even Lucius’s and I. You feel more tainted than Voldemort.” roared Severus. Its not true Lucas, I don’t mean it. Severus thought as he advanced once more on his son. He needed to make Lucas stay away. Lucas being around put his wife and younger children in danger. And he couldn’t bare to lose them. Even at the cost of losing his oldest son.


“How could you say such. I’m not Dark . I am the reborn soul of Merlin and King of Magic. I’m Grey! Do you hear me Father, GREY. roared Lucas at the end. Why are doing this Father? What are you pushing me away. Don’t I deserve to have a family too? thought Lucas as he noticed his Father about to attack.


And attack he did. Severus lounged at his son with all the strength he had. And was surprised when his strike hit. He looked up at Lucas to see the blood flowing out of his nose and short breaths coming from Lucas’s mouth. What didn’t you move Lucas? Why would you let me hit you? Severus thought as he back away from his son and into a defense position.



Lucas didn’t move. He felt his nose fix itself and the blood disappear. As he was staring straight into his Father’s eyes. Lucas knew that if he had blocked the hit or used his magic, his Father would have been seriously hurt. And that was the last thing he wanted.


“Why Father, if you didn’t want me. Then why didn’t you and Mother give me to Uncle Luc and Aunt Cissa? They wanted me at least that’s what Draco said the other day.” Lucas calmly asked as he moved toward the open window in the nursery, to look out of the grounds. When he didn’t get an answer he turned back to his Father with cold eyes. Eyes that seemed to look into your soul.


“Over the years I’ve asked myself, why? Why did you stop loving me? Why did my Mother stop loving me? What did I do that was so wrong to make you both turn away from me? “ Lucas laughed coldly. “Someone told me once that if your own parents didn’t love you. Then you didn’t stand a chance of being loved by anyone. And do you know what I said?”

“No” whispered Severus as he continued to watch his heir.


“That it didn’t matter. Because no one had to love me to follow and fight beside me.” Lucas spoke with determination. “I tried to make you proud of me and not regret claiming me as a son. But I was wrong, you’ll never will be. I tried to push myself for your approval. It never came. When I returned from the hell you sent me too as a man. I thought I’d finally manage to at least gain your respect. I was wrong.” Lucas turned away again, and just before he teleported out he whispered, “I will never bother you or your family again. Good-bye Lord Snape.”


Severus Snape crumpled to the floor. He wanted to scream that Lucas had it all. But for the safety of his family he remained silent. A single tear fell down his face. He didn’t notice his wife had even come into the room. Until she laid a hand on his shoulder.


“We’ve lost him and it’s all my fault.” he whispered to her as he wrapped his arms around her waist still kneeling on the floor. He didn’t notice that his wife also had tears falling as she let him cling to her in his grief.
