"Slytherin!" The Sorting Hat screamed as your brother Draco jumped off the stool that sat in front of the entire school. He ran past you and smiled. "I'll save you a seat." He said before you watched him go over to the table and meet everyone that was sat there; all of them congratulating him on being sorted into what they believed was the best of the four houses that Hogwarts had to offer. Your attention turned back to Professor McGonagall, who was about to read the next name of the parchment in her hand. "(Y/n) Malfoy." She called out, and you made your way to the front of the hall and sat on the stool where Draco had been sat just seconds before. McGonagall placed the sorting hat on your head and you waited for the verdict. "Gryffindor!"  Your eyes widened as everyone gasped. You looked over at Draco, whose mouth was wide open, almost in as much shock as you were. 

How could this have happened? You were a Malfoy for crying out loud, making you the first one in your family to be sorted into any other house, rather than Slytherin. Slowly, you got off the stool and made your way to the Gryffindor table with everyone's eyes on you.

"Your brother is staring at us again," Ron said, taking a bite of his food before turning his attention back to his copy of 'The Daily Prophet'. You turned around to face the Slytherin table and saw Draco, your older brother staring at you. "Just ignore him." You said, shaking your head. As much as you loved Draco, the two of you had a very difficult relationship. When you were at home, you were incredibly close, but whilst at Hogwarts, the pair of you were often a distance from one another; obviously, this was as a result of the house you were sorted into and subsequently, the friends you made because of that. "You were sorted into Gryffindor six years ago, you'd think he'd have gotten over it by now," Hermione said, as she looked across the table at you. "You'd think but you've met our parents. You know how uptight they are." Hermione simply nodded, saying nothing. 

You went to say something else but were interrupted by the strike of lightning outside the window that caught everyone's attention. That's when the doors of the great hall were thrown open and someone came running in, screaming. "It's Dumbledore!" They said, their face pale. "Dumbledore's dead!" You looked at Hermione and Ron and instantly stood up, along with the rest of the hall and followed this student out into the courtyard where Harry sat, crying over Dumbledore's body. You ran over to him and held him in your arms. "Voldemort was behind this." He sobbed into your shoulder. "With Dumbledore around, he wouldn't be able to kill me. He's got what he wanted now." He added, not being able to look at Dumbledore's body as it lay cold and still in the grounds of the castle. (Y/n) looked up to see the dark mark in the sky just to the side of the astronomy tower. 

You felt Harry stand up next to you. "I can't do this." He said, running into the building. Everyone in the courtyard stared in awe at the situation that had unfolded. "Harry!" You said, running after him, the two of you were followed by Professor McGonagall. Harry made his way to Dumbledore's office. He stood over the Pensieve sobbing. Guilt was running around in his head. He was wondering how he could have let this happen. "Potter," McGonagall said, as your hand was on his back. "Professor." He replied. "I tried everything I could to stop this." 

"I know." She smiled faintly, before having him a bottle. "He wanted you to see this." She said, before looking at you. "Both of you." Harry took the bottle from her and knowing what to do, he poured the liquid inside into the Pensieve and together you watched as a scene began to unfold.

The street was dark, with the exception of the few streetlights that towered over the streets. A cat sat on the wall before the figure of a human appeared. "McGonagall." He said and instantly, it was clear that it was Dumbledore speaking. In his arms, he held a baby. "Where's the other one?"

"Hagrid's bringing Harry." He stated. "I just came to see him off before I take (Y/n) to her new home."

"Her new home?" McGonagall said. "She won't be staying with the Dursleys?" McGonagall was shocked, the ide of separating twins didn't sit well with her. "Where will she go?"

"(Y/n) Potter will be (Y/n) Malfoy by the end of the night."

"Malfoy?"

"That's correct Minerva." He said, looking at the baby in his arms. "(Y/n) could be what saves the Malfoy family, and what saves the Malfoy's son." Before McGonagall could reply, Hagrid arrived with a baby in the passenger side of his motorcycle. "Say goodbye (Y/n)," Dumbledore said. "Harry Potter will see you again soon." With that, (Y/n) and Dumbledore were gone."

You and Harry looked at each other. "We're brother and sister?" Harry said but before you could reply to someone else spoke. "Yes." It was Draco." You turned round to see him as he walked towards you and Harry. "You knew?"

"Not for years." He admitted. "Not till 2nd year. I couldn't work out why you were in Gryffindor. I asked Mum and Dad for years and eventually, they gave in and told. They made me swear on oath. I was forbidden to tell you. I'm sorry." He looked at Harry. "I really am." 

"Is this why you didn't like me?" Harry asked. "Because you were afraid I'd take (Y/n) away from you?"

"That' right." He admitted, shaking his head. "Well, you've found your family now. I'll leave you to it." He started walking away.

"No." You should, dragging him back. "If Harry is my brother, so are you. I want to spend the holidays with both of you because I love both of you." Suddenly, everything made sense...
