A Brand New Day

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter, the Goddess JKR, and a bunch of multi-billion dollar corporations do. I just like making them do unspeakable things. When I’m done I’ll return them unharmed. I promise on my honor as a former Girl Scout. ‘Does Girl Scout promise sign’ Please don’t sue the poor college student. Unless you’d like my 7,645 dollars in student loan debts. That you can have!





Author’s Notes: Before each chapter I’m gonna put up a mini glossary of the Japanese words that I’m going to use in that chapter since my OC Serenity is half Japanese and half British . She tends to switch languages when she’s pissed, excited or upset.



Glossary:



Baka-Idiot

Tenshi-Angel











‘Damn he looks fucking amazing,’ these were the first words that ran through Draco’s mind as he looked down at Harry. ‘I guess those makeovers won’t be necessary after all,’ he mused looking over at Hermione. He was hard pressed to keep himself under control, attempting to not let his astonishment show as he looked at the beautiful raven haired boy.



Meanwhile Harry was thinking about how absolutely gorgeous Draco looked. As he stood up so that he could be eye to eye with Draco. Realizing that while Harry had stayed the same height over the summer, Draco had experienced a major growth spurt. He now stood about three inches taller than Harry even with the two extra inches the boots Harry was wearing gave him.



“Hey Potter”



“Malfoy.” Harry replied, trying to act cool and not let his nervousness at being faced with Draco show.



For a minute both boys just stood there and stared into each other’s eyes until Serenity broke the silence, “I guess it forgot to introduce myself properly,” she held a hand to her chest, “I’m Serenity Malfoy, I believe you both know my cousin Draco?” she asked, gesturing to the blond who was still staring at Harry.



“I should have noticed the resemblance. You two look almost identical except for the eyes,” Hermione said.



“Our fathers are twins,” Serenity explained with a grin.



“Lucius Malfoy has a twin?”



“Yes my father is Damien Malfoy. He married a Japanese witch and moved there shortly after graduating Hogwarts.” Serenity told Hermione before glancing at the two boys who were still staring at each other in stunned silence. “Hold on a minute I’ll fix this.”



She reached around and smacked her still speechless cousin on the back of his head.



“OW! What the bloody hell was that for!?”



“Talk to him you Baka, you’re just staring at him like a retard.”



“Sorry, Potter.”



Harry shook himself out of his trance so he could actually talk to Draco instead of just looking at him, “It’s okay I was staring at you too, I can’t believe your wearing muggle clothes.”



“I happen to like muggle Goth fashion. It looks pretty damn good on me.” Draco smirked.



Harry smirked back, “That it does Draco.”



Draco lifted one aristocratic eyebrow in surprise, “I’m Draco to you now?”



“I just have this feeling we’re not going to be enemies anymore, don’t you?”



“Yeah,” Draco paused before trying the name, “Harry, I have a feeling this year is going to be very different compared to those in the past.”

Draco looked around the club they were in after a few moments of awkward silence, “I’m over this place. Let’s go to Shadows.”



“Hey, I’ve heard of Shadows, isn’t a club for only the most elite teenage wizards and witches?” Hermione asked.



“Dead on, Hermione. Shadows is where the Slytherins and I are having our annual ‘Back To School’ party my father rented out the place for the night.”



“If your snakes are having a private party at one of the most popular clubs in England, why are you in a muggle club instead of there?”



“Because this one,” Draco said pointing a finger at Serenity, “just had to come here and play that damn DDR game before she could go anywhere else.”



“Oh my God so did she!” Harry said pointing at Hermione, “She made a beeline for that game as soon as we got in here.”

.

Both girls crossed their arms over their chests, pouted and said at the same exact time



“I’m the Champion.”



The two girls looked at each other in surprise, Hermione was the first one to speak, shock evident in her voice, “You’re a DDR champion?”



“Yeah the Japanese Champion to be exact”



Hermione’s jaw dropped in surprise, “You’re Tenshi?!”



“Yeah, that’s my nickname. Hey wait a minute are you the British champion Frost?!



Hermione did a little bow, “At your service.”



“No wonder it was a tie. We’re about equal in skill.”



“All right,” Draco said, interrupting, “enough about that damn game, let’s go to Shadows and really party. “



With that said the group of four left the club and headed to the Malfoy’s limo so they could head to Knockturn Alley where Shadows was located. They had decided to talk in the limo and get to know each other a little better before being faced with the whole of Slytherin house.



“So Harry, Hermione what’s the deal with the new looks?” Draco asked, curious.



Glancing at each other, Harry replied, “We’re sick of always pretending to be such goody-goodies when we’re not.”



“So we decided that we’re going to act like the real us from now on and anyone who doesn’t like it can go bugger themselves,” Hermione finished.



“What about the Weasel....I mean Ron I see he’s not in on your transformation.”



While Harry snorted, Hermione laughed and said, “Ron is the first person that can go bugger himself, we hate his ever loving guts with a passion.”



“He was only my friend because I’m The-Boy-Who-Lived. He wanted to be in my spotlight, famous because he was my best friend.”



“How did you find that out?” Serenity asked, feeling bad for the two.



“He has this very nosy little sister who loves me very much and she just happened to be reading his journal last summer when they were at home and there was all this stuff he wrote about me.”



“Like what?”



“Ron had planned on being my friend as soon as he realized that I would be going to Hogwarts with him. He wanted to use me to boost the status of him and his whole family. People would revere the Weasley name if they were so closely associated with the savior of the Wizarding world. His obsession with fame and fortune borders on insanity.”



“Merlin, he’s out of his mind,” Draco commented, shaking his head, “Who would want to go through what you do just to be rich and famous?”



“Yeah, it’s not like you choose to be who you are,” Serenity added.



Harry smiled, “You two are the first people other than Hermione who understand that I would much rather be normal and have no one know who I am than to be famous and have the future of the entire world resting on my shoulders. People tend to forget I’m only sixteen. I’m supposed to be the invincible savior instead of a normal teenage boy with his own problems,” he paused, not liking the direction the conversation had started, “but enough about me what about you two?”



“What do you want to know about Draco and me?”



“Let’s start with why Draco didn’t hex me and ‘Mione as soon as he saw us.”



Draco leaned forward and looked Harry straight in the eye, “You two aren’t the only ones hiding your true selves from the world. The Draco you see before you is the true me. The me you’ve know for the past six years was just a façade. Someone I created to hide behind while I did what I had to do. The Malfoy’s are on your side, all of us, and that we’ve been spies since before you started Hogwarts.”



“What!?!!!” Hermione and Harry yelped



“Dumbledork never told you. He let us fight and fight all these years and never told you that we were on the same side.”



“Why do I sense you have no lost love for Dumbledore?” Harry asked



“That would be because we absolutely hate the manipulative old bastard.”



“Yet your on his side”



“No, Harry, we’re on your side. We would double-cross that old coot in a second. We’re only loyal to him because you are. ”



“But I’m not loyal to him I hate him too.”



Draco and Serenity’s eyes widened in shock and the yelped, “What!!?!”



“I haven’t been truly loyal to him since 4th year when my name ‘mysteriously’ came out of the Goblet of Fire. I never wanted to be in the Tri-Wizard Tournament. And then a few months ago when everything went nuts at the Department of Mysteries and Sirius died. Dumbledore could have warned me that Voldemort would try to trick me and lure me there but he didn’t. He just let me and Sirius fall into Voldemort’s trap.”



“Draco, why aren’t the Malfoy’s loyal to Voldemort?” Hermione asked.



“Because Malfoy’s don’t bow to anyone, let alone a power-mad maniac who’s number one goal in life is killing a 16 year-old.”



“What about your father Draco, isn’t he in Azkaban right now?”



“My father going to prison was a cover to get him away from the Dark Lord. He was beginning to suspect my father’s loyalty to His cause. My dad is safe behind the wards at Malfoy Manor.”



“What about you Serenity, are you just visiting for the summer?” Harry asked.



“No I’m staying here in England for the remainder of my schooling. I start my 6th year at Hogwarts with all of you tomorrow.”



“You’re here to help us fight Voldemort.”



“Yes, my father sent me to assist all of you in His defeat.”



“Why would a father send his teenage daughter to help fight a war?”



She didn’t even pause before answering, “I have certain abilities most wizards and witches can only dream of and before you decide to start playing dumb one of those abilities is the power of second sight. I get flashes of things that haven’t happened yet I also sometimes just ‘know’ things about people. I know that you and Hermione aren’t anymore ‘average’ than Draco and I are.”



“Serenity! Did you have to tell them that about us so soon?! They’ll think we’re freaks or something!” Draco exclaimed.



“What do you mean by not average?” Hermione asked quietly, ignoring Draco’s outburst.



Draco looked aver at the two Gryffindors, sighed and said just as quietly as Hermione “We each have dominion over an element to some extent. I have control over Earth. I can cause earthquakes, control plant life, communicate with most animals and I have the power to heal injuries.”



“Yeah,” Serenity chimed in, “and I have power over air. I can create tornados and other storms. I can even make it rain and shoot lightning at things. In addition to all my physic abilities. What about you two?”



Harry and Hermione looked at each other, communicating silently. Then, seeming to come to a decision they looked back at Draco and Serenity.



“I have power over the element of water as I can control it in all it’s forms. I prefer to use ice. Which is why Harry gave me the nickname Frost,” Hermione explained.



“And what about you Harry?” Serenity asked.



“My power isn’t really over an element like the rest of you. I have the powers of Death and Rebirth. I can kill or revive any living thing with a touch. I‘m a walking, talking killing curse. I also have a few other physic abilities like telepathy and telekinesis.”



“Draco and I can do astral projection, can the two of you?”



“I can but ‘Mione can’t yet”



“My powers haven’t hit that plateau yet,” ‘She explained.



Harry reached around his neck and pulled out a dark purple stone on a silver chain. ”Do you guys have stones like these?” He asked, showing the necklace to Draco and Serenity. Hermione showed them her own dark green chain with a aquamarine colored stone hanging free .



Draco pulled on the golden chain around his neck and showed Harry the green stone around his own neck while Serenity pulled out a dark blue chain and dangled the pale blue stone that hung from the end of it.



“That’s four out of five,” Hermione said.



“We haven’t been able to find out who holds the fifth stone,” Harry said.



“Neither have we. Trista said we would find the person when they were ready to be found,” Renny added.



“When did you first meet Trista?” ‘Mione asked.



“About two years ago, the last time I was in England visiting Dray for the summer.”





Flashback



Renny and Draco were walking down Knockturn Alley when they saw a small dusty shop in a corner.



“I’ve never seen this place before,” Draco said, pointing at the sign.



“Let’s go in and see what they have,” Renny said pulling her cousin towards the entrance. They felt suffocated as they entered as the store was cramped full of strange artifacts.



“This place is fucking creepy let’s just get the hell out of here Ren,” Draco whined.



“Don’t be such a baby Draco it’s just a store.”



“Never fear young ones nothing in my store would ever harm two such as you” a voice said seemingly from out of thin air. Both Malfoy’s jumped, startled by the raspy female voice. An old woman stepped from the shadows of the store.



“What do you mean ‘two such as us’?” Draco said.



“You are Draco and Serenity Malfoy are you not?”



“How do you know who we are?” Renny asked.



“I’ve been waiting for the two of you. My name is Trista and I own this store,” she replied staring at them. Draco and Ren were starting to panic underneath the woman’s eerily calm gaze when the panic settled, Draco became defensive.



“What do you mean you’ve been waiting for us, we didn’t even know this store existed until today how could you have known we were going to come in here?” Draco asked angrily.



“I’m a very gifted woman Draco Malfoy. I knew you would find me when you both were ready, so here you are.”



“Ready for what?” Renny calmly asked, shooting a glance at her cousin.



“To be granted the abilities that will allow you to assist the chosen one in his fight against the ultimate evil.”



“‘The chosen one’?” Draco asked in disbelief, “What the bloody hell are you on about?”



“Long ago, many years before either of you were born, a powerful seer received a vision of the future and in a deep trance spoke of the evil that would befall the Wizarding world. She said that many would perish but that the world would be saved by a special group of young ones that could tame the very sprit of magic and make it their own.”



“What exactly does this prophesy say and why does it involve us?” Renny asked.



“Would you like to hear the prophesy that I speak of?”



“Yes, we would,” Renny said politely.



“‘Evil will rain its taint over the Wizarding world. Many will sacrifice their lives for the greater good. Out of the ashes four will rise to help him to see that there is nothing to fear in darkness. They will possess the power of the four elements: Water, Fire, Earth and Air. Darkness not Light will defeat evil and bring peace to this world. He was raised in shadows and darkness, among the most evil of creatures yet he is kind and good. His enemies will become his allies and his allies will become his enemies. Those he loves will betray him. He will feel pain and suffer loss. Only when he accepts his inner darkness and sets it free will he unlock his true power and be able to win the final fight against the evil one.’ This is his destiny.”



Both Malfoy’s slipped more and more into shock as they listened to the woman recite the prophesy that would change their lives forever.
