CHAPTER TWENTY NINE; PROPHECIES

❝ a-andreah..? ❞

♫: 'i'm falling again, falling again, falling.' ~harry styles, falling.

'born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies.'

"THOMAS, BRING HER INTO HIDING. There's no time for me. Get her out of here. Owl Lily and James a warning. Quickly." She ordered her husband, who was quick to obey, sending out their family's owl to the Potters. A brief but clear warning that He was coming.

"But Andreah.."

"No, Thomas. You have to take her into hiding. Go to the Order's House. Or the Burrow. Anywhere away from here." She urged, getting even more frantic as she felt someone move through the barriers that had been set around Nightingale Manor. "Go!" She yelled, a loud crack following.

[♚]

"God too, is referred to as he, though only real practisers of the faith, know that he is indeed, genderless. So truly, assuming that little Harry is the only one with the power to destroy the Dark Lord, is daft, Thomas."

"But Albus-" He tried to protest, but it was cut short.

"You should go back to assist Andreah. I'll take care of her." He spoke, his eyes glimmering as always, cradling the little girl in his arms as she slowly started to cry.

"No-"

"Go, Thomas. She's safe."

[♚]

"Merlin! You're acting as if we've been apart for six months!" She giggled into his chest, looking up to meet his gaze afterwards.

"It certainly does feel that way..." he mumbled, laying his hand on her cheek gently, letting out a shaky breath he didn't know he was holding as his gaze fell on something behind her, horror striking his face.

"Hey. Are you okay, Snowflake?" Her expression shifted to worried as she looked around for a bit, her eyes quickly falling onto what she knew to be his parents. She looked confused as she felt him let go of her hips and step back, swallowing.

"Run. Find a compartment with Raven-or Blaise. Anyone. I'll be there in a second. Go." He saw her hesitate, so he urged her once more. "Go, Starlet." And she did. She sighed, but walked away from him.

He and Blaise had attended a meeting the last day before they were supposed to return to classes, causing them to too, be at King's Cross, taking the Hogwarts Express to avoid suspicion.

What were his parents even doing here?

His father only just got released out of Azkaban due to 'New Evidence', but it seemed that everyone knew better, and eyed the family with fear.

"Happy little reunion with your mudblood piece on the side, Draco?" The eldest Malfoy asked mockingly, his face far from amused.

"Lucius-" His mother tried to scold her husband, to no avail, though.

"Silence, Cissa." Draco shifted uncomfortably. His father had never been one to show respect to his mother.

"Father I-"

"Save it." He growled. "I already know everything."

"How?.." Draco questioned, his tone defeated.
