Harry Potter and the Vampiric Inheritance

Ok so I’m sorry for the wait guys but I did warn you. Their shouldn’t be too much waiting soon as summer holidays are coming up and I still haven’t been able to fine a job so it might be pretty quick updates (although I’m soo not talking everyday here)…we’ll see anyway.

Right so I have found a beta! A big clap for Syltherdor who offered to help me, and has worked through this chapter for me. ^_^ yeah I bragged for day to my friends who had no idea what a beta was that I was so official now lol. Thanks again Syltherdor!!

Well on with it…

The world around him came back into focus as they reached their new location and Alucard was immediately hit with the smell of fresh, sea air.

When he looked around he didn’t expect to be stood on an island just big enough to hold the castle stood on his, you would really have a hard time walking around the castle walls.

That is if you could class what they where stood in front of as a castle, more like once was. The outer walls are all only four foot at the highest and the door ways and windows are only partly left.

The teen vamp shrugged it off. If its an old ritual an old place seems appropriate. As they walked towards the entrance Alucard noticed something strange with the weather.

“Se..Father, what’s with the weather? All round us is a raging storm and yet the island is bathed in sunlight and warm breezes. I’m guessing a spell but why?”

“Well…you’re in the Bermuda triangle…or so the muggles call it. It is actually where the firsts connect with our world. The storm is an affect of the magic used to call to the firsts as well as cover since the island is supposed to be underwater. This is castle atlantics after all.”

“I thought Atlantis was a city or something. And is that why things go missing in the Bermuda triangle?”

“No Atlantis has always been a castle, it was the first castle to be built on a movable island. And no, people don’t disappear, we take their memories and twist them, send them off to the other side of the world or simply twist their memories of the last so many weeks.” Lucius stepped in to explain.

As they stepped through the broken arch way Draco and Alucard stopped; totally taken aback.

They must have stepped through a spell or something as the castle seemed to be as it must have originally looked when first built. There were walls of rich mahogany wood and deep rich colouring drapes and carpeting.

People walked around with a sense of purpose, unlike the ministry. There were no signs signalling which way to go as this was, obviously, a select race and those who were there would know where to go.

Even as they walked down the seemingly never ending twists and turns Alucard seemed to know where he was going. He chalked it up to the blood link being close to being completed and already giving him some of the knowledge of his family members past.

They came to a set of large, taking up the whole wall large, doors. They where made of red wood and had two griffins carved into them, both poised for attack. There was a border of flowers and fairies; the flowers moving slightly as the fairies zipped in and out of the wood.

Draco looked a little nervous now and Alucard, for the first time since the blonde had changed, noticed it was because they were in the same boat; Draco was wearing the same as Alucard but, obviously due to him being a host, was wearing white; his belt being silver. Which meant he would probably be going through the ceremony with him.

“Now Alucard, you and Draco will wait here with me. Lucius will go in and introduce who we are and what we want. Remus and…Padfoot will be seated with the rest of our family. We will go in when called and from then on the trial is in your hands.

Answer truthfully, do not question and…hang in there.” Severus explained, in the end giving his sons shoulder a reassuring squeeze.

“Draco, I will be with Severus on the council, your mother has made it and is stood with your grandmother. Be safe and stand by Alucard. You WILL need each other.” Lucius looked undecided for a moment before briefly hugging his son.

The rest of the group entered the room and were met with silence. Out side the doors Draco had started biting his bottom lip already and kept taking deep breaths; he knew what would be happening and it didn’t ease his nerves.

When he felt someone put their arms around his waist and pull him towards a warm chest, his head fitting into the crook of a neck, he gasped slightly coming out of his thoughts and breathed in the person’s cologne; knowing instantly that the scent was H-Alucard’s.

“You need to relax, I could feel you through the link we have. We’ll be ok, you watch my back and I’ll watch yours ok.”

Draco revelled in the sensation of Alucard’s chest rumbling slightly when as he talked and burrowed closer softy. Although his next words didn’t seem to match up with the movement.

“I’m not a girl you know I can handle myself.” Alucard just squeezed his waist slightly and smiled into the blondes hair, chancing a look at his father who was also looking a little nervous.

That when Alucard realised; he hadn’t felt nervous all day, and now it was like he had been through this before.

Now Alucard had been brought up to speed on certain Vampiric things such as; he was, obviously, a daywalker. This meant his magic was at its strongest during the day. That he would be able to learn the entire history of his family when he drank from his farther later today and could learns someone’s entire past by drinking their blood if he wanted to.

But it was there that lied the problem; he had only drunk from Draco and the teen hadn’t been through this before. It was strange, since he come into his inheritance on his birthday over summer, he had never felt alone. Sometimes in the dead of night if he couldn’t sleep or when he didn’t seem to fit into a conversation turned to going home for Christmas with the family, it was easy to feel alone. He would hear a distant voice telling him to feed, at the time he didn’t know what on though, and to not waist his time with common wizard filth and to stop letting his host be so free in his company.

Obviously he didn’t let the voice win any of the little mind arguments, but he was beginning to wonder if he should say something, He’s read that after opening the bloodlink you can see/feel the memories past of everyone who was in the family and is still in the family, dead and alive. So how was it possible for him to here this voice, this memory now? As he was about to turn slightly to ask his father the man stepped up and put a hand on either teens shoulder.

“It’s time. Now you and I will confirm our relation and then you will drink from me is a show that we both except that you are read for the title master vampire. Remember Alucard until you become a master vampire you must show respect and refer to me as your sire or master. Draco you follow us in and stand by Alucard at all times.”

With that the doors began to open and the teens stepped apart, turning to the doors. Severus walked ahead of them and they followed at a respectable distance. All three had a mask of indifference put on.

Severus to keep his fear, nervousness and excitement down; This was his son taking the oath, he’d seen many of these and his son looked far more ready than any of the half pints he’d seen come through those doors.

Draco kept his in check because he had heard these oaths can be painful if not carried out properly. He had a very low paint thresh hold and had often wished for a, more manly, higher one.

And Alucard because, due to the ‘voice’ in his head, knew that uncertainty and fear now would cost him greatly as well as showing weakness. He was also hiding his jaw drop reaction to the room.

It was huge, length and height, the left and right walls where lined with huge floor to ceiling carved statues of regal dragons, these ones didn’t seem to move. Leading from them to the opposite side of the room was a walkway, either side of the walk way was filled with some sort of liquid, it was dark and tinted slightly. Hovering over the pool-like areas were massive balls of fire just burning with far less sound than there should be.

The walkway was coated in a red carpet and lead right to the end where it split off going right a little as well as left. At the opposite side of the room was, apparently, the council and any guests.

They began their walk down the isle and Alucard noticed that every so often they would pass under a beam of light that spotlighted the floor. There where three more at the end lining up in front of the council and then one larger one in front of the middle light.

They got to the end and lined up accordingly; Severus to the left then Alucard and then Draco on his right.

“Severus Prince, you stand before the council of ages who have gathered here to open the link and except your son, correct?”

Severus stepped forward into the larger spotlight and gave a small bow to the group before him.

“That is correct your elder.” Severus voice was respectful and strong.

“Harry Potter you stand before the council to join the Vampiric race and except you heritage through opening the bloodlink and change you name to the Vampiric one you mother gave you. Is this correct?”

Severus stepped back immediately after the elder had spoken to another and Alucard had stepped forward after the elder spoke.

When Alucard stepped forward he got the full effect of the council; the construction was large, about half the size of the griffins aligning the walls. It bent in a semi-circle and held two rows of elders, who each had at least four lore books with them. At both ends of the elders benches it went upwards, resting on the griffins heads, and created a balcony for the families and guests present.

After stepping back Severus chanced a look to Remus. The werewolf looked concerned but that could be about a number of things, it was when the name change was mentioned that Remus looked surprised, confused and even a little hurt.

“Yes your elders.” Alucard kept his voice steady but his mind was whirling as though it was trying to find a place in his head; it was giving him a headache.

“Very well…It says here you have already taken a host. You realise, Severus, that this goes against what is lore.”

Severus stood next to his son in the light and held his head a little higher.

“The lore says that a host is not to be taken until the vampire can call himself master. This is to protect the host and the quality of the Vampiric race.

Are you saying my son is not worthy of the title about to be bestowed on him? Are you saying that my own flesh and blood would treat his host without respect? I would be offended at the very idea of the accusation.

I know my son is worthy and is quite capable of being a master vampire and, weather he was originally brought up in the wizarding world or not, he holds more power than most of us. I stand by my decision and put faith in the council to see what I had.”

The council conferred with themselves for a minute or two and then the elder who had spoken before nodded.

“We see what you see Severus, and hopefully so will the firsts. Severus step back and give way to the proceedings.

Draco Abraxus Lucius Malfoy, you stand by Harry Potter and before this council to show your unwavering support for your curator. Do you take on the responsibilities that come with gaining your family status of host?”

Draco stepped up to Alucard and nodded. “Yes your elder.”

“Harry, Draco. As you have already hosted you will now take the judgement.”

Alucard looked to where his father had stepped back and noticed his was now stood next to Remus looking a little apprehensive about something. For some reason he found that quite funny. And it was that though that disturbed him; it was an ironic laughter going off in his head as though he’d been through this before and found it quite a let down from what he had been told and apprehension wasn’t really necessary.

Suddenly the lights when out and Alucard felt Draco’s hand grab the arm of his tunic. Alucard remembered that vampires and a second eyelid that can be brought down over the eye so that they could see during the night, it was usually a trait in nightstalkers but it wasn’t particularly unusual for daywalkers to have them. So he tried; he closed his eyes and focus on the muscle on his eyelid, just opening it rather than the other lid. When he opened it he could see everything.

The pools at either side of the walkway were bubbling and then began to drip upwards as though the ceiling and floor where reversed. Suddenly the liquid caught on fire. The left one glowed a burnt yellow and orange and the other was more of a blue and purple, the crackling of the fires grew louder until you couldn’t here anything and then just as abruptly, as though reaching the loudest of sound, it stopped and there was nothing…not even their own heartbeats.

Two figures began to slowly emerge as though fighting to get through, disjointed movement that reminded him of a few horror films he’d managed to see at Ron’s house. They crawled out of the flames as though coming up from a crack in the ground rather than mid air and the sounds were horrendous.

That’s when Alucard everyone in the stand where talking as though nothing was happening. He looked to the ground and saw a circle surrounding them, it had lines criss-crossing it and symbols he couldn’t understand at certain intervals.

He looked back up at the figures when Draco tugged on his sleeve. The creatures that had emerged where quite human-like, save for the unearthly presence they gave off.

The one that emerged from the blue flame was a little tall then Alucard, he was blue all over and completely naked, hung well and his skin seemed soft yet tough, he had piercing crystal blue eyes that seemed to shine right through your soul.

The figure that came out of the orange flames was actually a woman and she was also naked, a little smaller than the man but beautiful, her eyes seemed to quilt you with warmth and looked like liquid gold.

They walked up to the teens and stood in front of them. They hissed through their fangs, what seemed to be their own dialect, and began to walk around the men. Sticking to the edges of the circle.

“My, my, my, this one is truly scared like all the rest were. But he believes in his protector rather than the idea that we spare the host.” The female said in a seductively surprised voice.

“Ha, this one is void of emotion right now. Seems he has a guest. But the strength in him is purely his…he hold the true power.” The males voice was husky, yet he seemed to be taking this more seriously.

“Are you the firsts?” It was a statement really but, one had to be polite.

“Yes child. We are the firsts. Two perfect being to create THE perfect being. We alone where given the take of finding the one worthy enough.”

“Who gave you this task?”

Draco stayed quiet, not that he could speak if he had anything to say, these things might look stunning but the real test hasn’t even begun.

“Why the one that created us, some things are best not to question. But we were purely created for finding those who can make and help the chosen one save all the realms we look upon.”

“He’s very talkative isn’t he.” The female said as she stepped into the circle, the temperature instantly rising, and stroked Alucard’s cheek.

“You said all realms, there are more than just the wizarding and Muggle realm on earth?”

The female laughed and turned to Draco, smiling at his nervousness that didn’t show and spoke up.

“This one could have told you that, he’s closely related to one of them, there are five actual worlds; The Muggle realm, the wizarding realm, the Vampiric realm, the elven realm and the realm of the dead.”

“Enough questions, insolence will not be looked upon kindly. I hope you are prepared fledgling.”

The male leapt out of the circle as the woman sauntered to the edge and waved him. Alucard was surprised to see that Draco wasn’t there now. He’d felt Draco stir and become surprised and determined. Reading Draco’s thoughts had told him the blonde was being taken away but didn’t feel threatened entirely.

Suddenly he was in a room full of spinning orbs, they glowed a deep red and yellow. Alucard felt something move behind him and as he turned he was the female, a globe flashing near her cheek.

“Some of these little things hold the minds of the people who came to see you today. Those orbs glow rather than flash colour. They spin on a tilted axis, knock any of the ones connected to your family and they will have their minds scrambled forever. You have to collect all of them before knowing what to do next.”

With that she dispersed. Alucard instantly tired to connect to Draco. After three attempts he finally heard a whisper.

##H-Alucard! You need to find the globs quickly what she didn’t tell you is that the longer to wait the smaller the orbs become, if they disappear so do our minds!##

Alucard didn’t reply instead he remembered what his father had told him about how to extend his wings; first pop his neck to release the nerve, then take a deep breath and dispel it-pushing the air to his back then up relaxing his back muscle as well.

Suddenly Alucard was up in the air dodging the orbs and using his ‘night vision’ so he could she the orbs and not have to rely on the light of the orbs to tell him their position.

It was tedious but eventually he had all the ones he needed he checked the balls over and saw that each one had a line of text around it. As he tried to read it in his head Draco came back.

##Alucard its elven! It says one who walks the path of masters must know of where he walks.##
“So it means that to be a master I have to show respect to others realms and countries by knowing their languages. But how was I supposed to know that, how am I supposed to know something I will learn from the bloodlink?”

##Well for starters, in a normal circumstance a fledgling is taught at least one different language. That and these test are twisted to fit the individuals, mostly to make them harder.”##

“So what n…” He felt arms around his waist and when he looked down he saw fire red nails.

“Please, this is supposed to be a test for the boy.” The male appeared in front of Alucard as the female purred into he left ear.

“I can’t help it; the amount of power he possesses. It’s its own aphrodisiac. He’s not even half as powerful as us but with the right training he could be great. Maybe we’re searching wrong and he is the chosen one.

After all he isn’t supposed to be able to use the link in this room remember, we’ve only ever seen two people do that.”

Alucard smirked; at both the idea of who those two could be and the look of displeasure from the male at his opposites behaviour.

“Let me guess; my mother and father?”

“So arrogant.” The male said taking on a slouched pose.

“Or is it ignorance…we can feel it you know, that you have barely begun to learn or ways. What make you think you have the right over everyone else?”

Alucard flinched slightly, when she got mad the room got stifling. Yet when he got angry it was deathly cold and they both seem susceptible to mood swings. But he didn’t let the flinch show.

“Well, for one you can not carry on testing me because, even though I have control of my powers, keeping me in this circle on the ground and making me use my magic within it is cracking the circle and it’s the only thing keeping the others from seeing what’s going on.

Secondly the longer you both stay in each others presence the more distracted you get with each other and that’s making you hostile now. I’m guessing that’s why the others think this is such an awful thing to go through; because they take so long completing a task that you can’t stand it in the end and just about rip their heads off.

Now I’m thinking that you get distracted with each other because you’re made of ice and water elements and you’re made of fire elements.

Two perfect beings the first and last of their kind who will for ever be pure and perfect because they can never know the others sinful touch.”

The male instantly had his neck in his grip and lifted him up slightly

“How do you know that?!”

Alucard felt the ice creep from his fingers and started to encase his neck but he had to go on he needed to know if he could get their help for the war.

“You fool what makes you think we would ever help you?!” The male exclaimed; reading his mind.

“That’s why you take such care in picking who is a vampire and who isn’t, because we are what you could never be; to you we are the ultimate perfection who is imperfect.”

“Why do you carry on with this? You already know this so why ask what could jeopardise your chances of ever getting your master status?”

“I need to know if that is true or twisted facts. If you take such care in picking vampires then it means the army I have will be strong and I can count on them. It means that we are an army who should ultimately be perfect. I don’t mean to disrespect, or mock, I just need your help and would like your help in the war that is coming. You speak of five realms, they will all fall under Voldemort if he isn’t stopped.”

“And you think you can defeat him? You, who came here with such inexperience?” The male kept him up and the female just kept here quizzical eyes on him.

“The wizarding world talks of a chosen one, I have been told I am that chosen one and have been training for this since then. I came here without the experience needed because I trusted you to hear me out and see that this is far bigger than me getting to be a master, this is you giving me the tools I need to fight for the five realms you watch over.”

“He is right. He is the chosen one we seek. The prophecy of the five realms is coming into affect! This prophecy boy, does it talk about an evil picking his opponent or something to that effect?”

“Yeah, why what do you mean prophecy of the five realms?”

The male let Alucard go and stepped out of the circle to join the female.

“The prophecy you speak of is just a twist of the one set upon the five realms themselves, each realm has their own version of it, each looking for the one who will guard their realm. The true prophecy actually says;

amongst the split through the realms, five shall come to rejoin them, they will be tested through a great evil and in the light one shall know of three realms, he will guide them all and fight with a fair and just’ hand.”

“Wait so am I the Vampiric saviour or the wizarding one?”

“Alucard you are not a wizard, you are the Vampiric chosen one. The one who longs to be but never knew, he will have power beyond what the council can see and will gain what is needed to take him to victory. You must find the wizarding saviour as well as the others, since you are the one that travels through three realms so easily you must be the one to lead the others that means you have to find them before this war begins or they could be lost with countless other die hard hero’s.”

“And how do you suppose I do that you talking about basically searching the entire earth four times.”

The male and feel male stepped forward and each placed a hand on his shoulder.

“We will help you. But first…” The female swept here hand across her forehead, “You must fine you host. We found that it was only recently that you have started to get along so this must be tested; you will need to rely on him as much as him on you. It is not fair, but he needs to be tested and in the same so shall you.”

As soon as the firsts disappeared the room changed and he was in, what looked to be, a never ending corridor.

##AGHHH! Fuck where am I?! Harry! Harry please!! shit Alucard!!##

The vamp could hear in Draco’s voice that he was sobbing now and he needed to get to him quickly. How long had he been in there and Alucard not being able to hear him?

“Draco where are you?! Explain to me where you are! Is there a door there?”

##No there’s no door! Harry the room is full of spiders, scorpions, agh! There are rats too, Am surrounded by some sort of liquid and I’m pretty sure its blood. Oh god Harry please, get me out of here!##

“Shit! That’s enough! Get him out of there now! You don’t need this tested, we already get along!”

Alucard then got an impulse of emotion of Draco and ran to the sixth door down when he opened it Draco was curled in on himself sobbing and chanting ‘Harry’

He didn’t want to waste any time; he picked Draco up and ran back to the seal on the floor. When they were inside Alucard pushed his magic to the edges of the circle and blew it apart.

He knelt down on one knee due to it taking so much out of him and when other stepped forward to help he turned to them.

Eyes a deep swirling purple, wings spread threateningly and fang elongated ready for attack.

“Nobody moves!” His voice carried through out the castle and seemed to pull Draco out of his stupor. Instantly the fangs where gone but the wings created a shelter of sorts from behind

“Ha-Alucard? Shit it’s really you!” With that he flung his arms around the vamp and Alucard could feel he was still shaking.

Once the blonde had stopped shaking Alucard retracted his wings and smiled reassuringly at his host.

“I think we did it.” He said holding up his right arm and pushing the sleeve up to reveal the markings around his wrist that spread over the top of his hand to the bottom of his fingers. Draco pushed his sleeve up and found his where the same.

They heard clapping and turned to see that everyone had seen the mark on their arms and knew they had made it to master and host.

“Congratulations my boys, you ha...”

“I apologise for the interruption your elders but I have urgent news. I talked with the firsts and it was agreed that I am the chosen one of this realm, you know of the prophecy for the five realms don’t you? I am the one of yours and we must begin to fine the others, this can not be taken lightly and I do not mock you. We must act fast or loose time.”

The council debated for a minute and Alucard could feel that voice in his head again, it ate at the base of this skull and worked its way forward…

“Well, you will need evidence of your claim boy. We don’t just...”

“Now you listen to me you shrivelled up old fool, I will not prove my self to anyone you got that, you either help me, or die trying to stop me! Make your fucking choice because I do not have time!”

By the time Alucard had finished he had risen on his wings his eyes had turned purple and his hair was down to his waist. He also had glowing markings on his face that looked slightly tribal and he seemed to be sucking the air right out of the room.

“Y-yes alright…we believe y-you! I-I will have a safe passage for you to take to the Even realm by the time you have found the wizarding guard.” By the end Alucard had set the air back in the room and landed on the floor.

Severus and Lucius ran up to their sons and began checking them over the minute the meeting was called to an end and Remus and Padfoot came next. When everyone seem sure the boys where ok they all heard a shrill scream and childish laughter.

A little girl with the Malfoy trademark hair and shining blue eye threw herself at Draco and clung on for dear life.

“Raco I was so worried you were dead-id! Mummy said she could feel how scared you were. Was it terribly nasty?”

“Yeah it was pretty bad Jessie. But I’m ok now; Ha-er Alucard here made sure I was ok.” Draco picked the girl up in his arms and held her close, at Alucard’s question look he smiled.

“Baby sister, Jessica. She’s four in two weeks. Yes my friends know and no I didn’t think to tell you because it just hasn’t come up in our conversations. Oh but I will tell you my mother is pregnant again so if she has a mood swing on you please just shrug it off.”

Lucius began coughing into his hand; a sign to stop talking about Mrs Malfoy as she was walking up with the older Mrs Malfoy, Draco’s grandmother.

Alucard watched as the younger woman walked up to them, she was dressed in a plain, pale blue dress. The sleeves reaching her elbows and frilled slightly and was the same edging on her square neckline. The dress fit her figure perfectly and even though she seemed about six months gone, she looked radiant.

The woman walking with her had grey hair that was obviously black at some point and wore, from what you could see, a deep green coat and pointed hat with a black band round it.

“Darling slow down you’ll hurt the baby!” The older Mrs Malfoy exclaimed as the blonde woman let go of the arm that helped her and waddled over to her husband.

Alucard had almost burst out laughing; after the Malfoy couple exchanged hugs and welcomes Mrs Malfoy gave Lucius a look that clearly said ‘get rid of your mother before I wring her neck.’

After another round of ‘I’m fine’, ‘yes we are ok’ and ‘no I don’t want you to kiss it better’ They left for their next destination for the day.

Alucard was getting a little annoyed at not being able to apparate himself but he didn’t know the destinations so it stood to reason that he be taken rather than risk getting lost. So with a small sigh he let his father control the magic for the apparition.

When Alucard could see again he saw the entrance way to an enormous mansion. It was white stone that looked to be in pristine condition. There windows were all fairly large and the entrance door was almost as intimidating in height as the council doors.

“Ok so where are we, and what do I do?” Alucard asked as he noticed that behind them was a thick forest covering. Severus smiled at his sons attitude, it was obvious to the people who knew, even the littlest amount about him, that he was getting agitated with not knowing anything and seemingly not in control.

“We are at the Greenfield Manor; one of the older buildings the Prince family own. This is where the Legion convenes. It is here you will join and we can start looking for these other saviours.”

They all turned to the small argument taking place to the side of the group where Draco and his sister had been stood.

“But you just said you like him! You said he helped you so he MUST like you back right?! Just ask him!”

“Jessie I said quit it, you ditzy ball of yellow goo!”

That was it; Jessie’s eyes began to tear up and she stomped over to Alucard who, once she reached him and tugged on his pants, bent down to her level.

She cupped her hands over her mouth and whispered something to the vamp, suddenly being lifted into the air and resting on the black hair teens hip. She smiled triumphantly and put her arms around Alucard’s neck, watching her brother as her carrier turned back to face his father.

“Now we shall go through and prepare. Lucius and Narcissa will go with Jessica and get ready, by the way Fungle is awaiting Jessica in her play room, Draco you will help Alucard prepare tonight. Padfoot can make his way to the hall and wait for the ceremony to begin and Remus will come with me so I can give him his things for tonight.” Severus said while looking round the group.

Jessica stuck her tongue out at Draco as Alucard began carrying her inside instead of just putting her down. Draco sniffed as though he didn’t care, and then berated himself for actually caring that Alucard was carrying her and not him.

As they began walking Jessica turned to Alucard and poked him in the cheek.

“My brother likes you.” She said with a smile barely hiding her giggle.

“Oh really, is that what you were arguing over?” He said turning her slightly so accommodate her on his arms.

“Yeah, he was looking at your butt and I asked if he liked you and he said yeah then he said no and then he said he did but you wasn’t allowed to know ‘cos he didn’t know if you liked him so I said to ask you and he said no cos he would look stupid and then I said he was being a baby and he said that I was small and so I kicked him in the knee and told him to tell you now and he called me yellow goo.”

“…wow…I, think I get it.”

“Good so you’ll ask my brother out?” She bounced on his arms, which he surprisingly didn’t feel aching from her bouncing.

“We’ll see. I tell you what you tell me all you can about your brother now and I’ll see what I can do, ok?”

She nodded enthusiastically and began reciting all the things she had heard, see or been told of her older brother Draco.

When they got to the entrance hall everyone split off to go about their business. Lucius helped his pregnant wife up the stairs and to the right with Jessie skipping along. Draco and Alucard walked up the stair and to the left with Draco telling him about the place were they where and its history.

Padfoot looked between Severus and Remus and shook his head slightly, padding off to the den where he knew a fireplace was. These two had some things two work out.

The two left stood in silence for a while. Severus turned and motioned for Remus to follow; if there had to be this silence he would prefer to be at least moving.

“So…I er…Thank you again for letting me and Sirius see Harry…Alucard’s ceremony.”

“You are the ones that have been there for him and are close enough to family. It is me who should be thanking you. I know you knew Alucard wasn’t James’s from the first smell but you kept it to your self and you still helped him in his third year.

What I must ask though is if you knew he was mine why were you so surprised to see me before school started?”

Remus coughed to cover up his embarrassment and turned his head slightly as they entered what was obviously their assigned room to change in.

“Well I never though you’d voluntary get back in touch with me after our encounters in Hogwarts.” Remus went and stood by the windows that reach from the floor to the ceiling.

“Back then it always seemed like I was a burden to you; having to make my potion and make sure no one knew about them.”

Severus walked up behind Remus and stood there hesitantly for a moment, then he sighed softly and moved closer so he could rest his hand on the mans shoulder.

“You were never a burden. I thought you wouldn’t want to see me. You made that clear when you never replied to my letters and when you threw your self into the orders bidding after he was born.”

“Severus please…I was…confused. Back then every letter you sent me ended with some silly innuendo or promise of love and then when I final come back from spying in France I find lily smelling of you and saying baby she is hold is James’ even though you both know I can smell it was yours. I didn’t…I knew I couldn’t handle your willingness to go through with it and easiness you both showed to have done that…”

Severus could see through the reflection of the window that Remus’ eyes were red from trying not to cry and rubbed his shoulder and arm.

“Remus, lily cried for day when I told her you hadn’t replied to any of my letters. She was never happy with what she had done and I truly believe that when Voldemort killed her she finally found the peace she wanted.

I was never happy with what had to be done either, I would stay up nights after that thinking about how I was to tell you, how you would react and in the end I resigned my self to the fact you would hate me. I just wanted closure, to know that you knew everything, and why.”

Remus sniffed and the tears he had kept back silently fell down his cheeks.

“Sirius told me everything, said you both explained it and that he could see why you had done it. I just felt so out of the loop; James thought he had a child, Lily and you had had a child and Sirius was godfather. What was I? The pansy werewolf.”

“Remus…you was my other half. What I told you in those letters; Remus my love I wish to see your smile as I live in constant darkness without you.

My Darling Rem I can’t wait to have you between my sheets close to the moon so I can take advantage of your horniness.

Please my heart, just answer one letter, you must know what your absence is doing to me, I can barely stand to watch the sun rise and fall anymore for it would mean another day with out some word from you, I beg of you don’t tear my heart this way it hurts too much and I am weak for you.”

Severus, while repeating what he had written in some of his letters years ago, stood closer to the werewolf and put both arms around him to link and the front of his waist. When he finished what he had written in his last letter Remus turn and buried his head in the mans neck.

“You remember them, then.”

“I remember because the words were true. You were, are and will always be everything to me. You and Harry mean the world to me.”

“Why did you have Harry change his name? I mean Alucard doesn’t suit him for one. Plus it will be so confusing for those who have known him the longest.” From were his face was buried.

“There is something within the boy that I am obliged not to talk about so soon. All I can say is it will not be permanent…neither will his attitudes.”

“You can be as cryptic as the old coot sometimes you know that. Lets get ready then.”


*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*In the Malfoy room.

Jessica had been playing with one of the house elves when she had remembered what she had done and ran into her parent’s room to tell them the good news, house elf following after her to make sure she was ok.

“Mummy, mummy, mummy guess what I did today?” She said jumping up and down on the pot in front of her mother who was writing something. Lucius sat on the couch in font reading the financial times of the wizarding world.

“And what would that be sugarplum?” Narcissa asked while still writing.

“Well Draco said he liked Harry so I told him to tell Harry but when he didn’t I told Harry and Harry said he would see what he could do meaning he will ask Draco out because Draco can’t because he’s scared so Harry will and by tonight they will be together and I can have two brothers to play with yeah, yeah, yeah, I rule!”

“What!” Lucius shouted in surprise while putting his paper down.

“Lucius darling, do you think we should tell her about Alucard’s name change or just let her grow into it?”

“Darling I’m more concerned that about what she said; Draco and Alucard will be going out by tonight. You do realise what we where doing on a night in our teens? Draco can not, I forbid it.” Lucius said puffing out his chest as he stood fists by his sides and a scowl across his face.

Narcissa stood and walked over to her husband easily finding the point on his body to calm him down.

“Now darling we both know this is just the bond taking effect. They’re bound to feel a little affection towards each other but nothing of the magnitude Jessie is taking about. Plus Draco knows of his condition and knows that anything of ‘that sort’ would be out of the question for another month or so. Right?”

Lucius relaxed; his son was very smart, he knew he could get pregnant right now and wouldn’t try anything yet anyway because of that fact.

“Right.”

*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*In Alucard’s Room

Draco’s back slammed in between two portraits, both shouting their anger to being exposed to this show, and held onto the top of them as Alucard bit open his collar buttons while his hands caressed the blonds thighs and rear.

Alucard hoisted Draco up a little further on his waist and pushed him back to keep him up while his hand went to Draco’s pants button and zipper.

“A-A-Alucard…th-theres something-agh…I need to tell…you.”

“mmm, what?”

Draco couldn’t think, just minutes ago they where discussing what his sister had said and they had both agree that they liked each other. Now he was trying with all his might to get some brain cells to connect for longer than two seconds.

“Erm…haaa…it was…important…”

Alucard managed to get the button and zipper down and held Draco as he swung them round to the bed, dropping Draco he pulled of the teens shoes and began to pull his pants down when there was banging on the door.
