Chapter 1
The Quidditch Game.
Lyra sat on her broom and looked around cunningly. She raked her fingers through her silver blond hair, thus pulling it and tying it in to a pony tail. Lyra glanced at the Slytherin stands her green eyes scanning the faces of the Slytherins. Finally she spotted the two she had been searching for. Her best friend Lexis was dressed in green and silver, her brown hair was streaked with some sort of liquid. Leo, Lyra’s cousin was next to her he two was dressed in green and silver, even though he was a teacher. Lyras eyes scanned them to see that across Lexis’s forehead was written “Malfoy” Lyras last name. Leo had “Parker” written across his, Lyra grinned.
“Lyra watch it!” came a familiar voice, from her left. She looked to see Lance Parkers blue eyes staring in to her green ones. Lyra followed his gaze, she turned to see a bludger heading towards her. She gasped and ducked instinctively just as a bludger skimmed her back.
“Stay down!” he commanded, with a simple swing Lance his the bludger back over Lyra. Once Lyra was sure that it was “Safe” she flew closer to Lance and smiled,.
“Thanks Love.” said Lyra pulling him to her with a simple kiss. Lyra’s neat Ponytail had unsurprisingly lost a few locks around her face, it swarmed around her as she pulled back.
“Better get your head back in the game.” Smirked Lance playfully hitting Lyra in the shoulder, he flew in front of her and than called back “Honey Bunch!”
Lyra stared her mouth slightly open, than cupped one hand by her mouth. “SHNUGGUMS!” Lyra swooped low deciding to take Lance’s advise. Lyra couldn’t help up feel that someone was following her. She swerved and someone swerved with her. It wasn’t the Gryffindor Seeker for Lyra could see him quite Plainly sitting and looking for either the Snitch or Lyra following something!
Lyra felt a growl arise in her stomach as she flipped around to see Slate Smith. Lyra glared, he was a muggleborn of Gryffindor and very good looking. Lyra had been dating him a little over a year ago. What she had ever found in him became a mystery to her.
She was a Malfoy, a pureblood from Slytherin House. Her family was respectable and the opposite of what many considered Slates. Forbidden Love? He had simply asked her out and she had accepted, than he had made the mistake of boasting to unfriendly Slytherin ears. Soon the unusual paring was brought to the attention of Lyras Older brother Draco.
It is no secret the relationship of the siblings. The two were extremely close growing up, one was always there when the other needed them. The two were also very similar. But coming from being close Draco is protective over his sister and at times overly protective. You can imagine what his reaction was when he found that his sister had a boyfriend. It was even worse when he found out about the family of the Boy. Lyra will always take her brothers side. It came from growing up together.
It did not end well, when Draco caught a mud blood kissing his little sister. for Slate was soon carried to the hospital wing by fellow Gryffindors. The break up was not a clean one. Slate challenged Lyra with “Me, or your brother.” there was no question Lyra would of course choose a family member, especially one that was as close as Draco was. She choose family, and everything that came with being a Malfoy over Slate.
As you have read from above the Break up did not go smoothly. Gryffindors began to poke fun at Lyra, and spread rumors about the girl Lyra was very hurt by this, but soon after she was able to get her revenge, when she started taking an interest in a pureblood from Slytherin, Lance Parker. Many said that the two were made for each other. Both were from families of power and wealth. Everything Lyra could have even hoped for in a spouse was in Lance, and what ever Lance hoped in a spouse was in Lyra.
The best thing about it was that Draco approved, So Lyra could date Lance with out a problem. Even though Draco made sure to drill, some threats in to Lance. When Lance and Lyra started dating, Slate was jealous! He had liked to see Lyra hurt, and expected her to come crawling back. When he spoke of his theory many laughed, knowing that the Malfoys were too proud to crawl. Slate never got over the Fact that Lyra and Lance lasted more than him and Lyra, and he hated Slate. Slate was everything he wasn’t.
“Smith! I am a Slytherin! You are a Gryffindor it would have never worked even if we had tried.” she hissed dodging around trying to make him run in to other players.
“Do you really think that’s why I am following, our beaters are a war, and your boyfriend won’t let you get hurt so I don’t have to worry, as long as I stay close to you!” he snarled mimicking her every move.
“Lance,” Lyra whispered in to the wind. “Please help.” and as if that wind had carried to his ears Lance looked to see Lyra dodging and weaving.
“What’s this? It seems that Malfoy has herself a tracker!” came the transparent voice of Veerle Falcon, echoing through the Pitch. Lyra flew around as if Hell it’s self was chasing her. “Now I know for a fact that those two dated at one point. Now it seams jealously has caught up with Smith.” Veerle paused.
She looked back at McGonigal her black hair blowing around her. “Professor the crowd loves gossip like this.” she crowed with a smile.
“I wasn’t protesting Miss falcon.” she said with a smile. Veerle flipped around again.
“What’s this? 10 points Slytherin! A wonderful goal by Coleen Mc Gable! And it seems Malfoy is still being tracked by Smith!”
Lyra flew near the Slytherin stands, she was greeted by cheers while Slate was greeted by boo’s. Lyra saw a couple of random items hitting Slate, including popcorn, glitter to blind him, a sock, and some more food.
Lexis glared her hazel eyes narrowing, anger bubbled with in her. She had never liked Slate, and didn’t understand what Lyra could have seen in him! She hated him, more than Anyone at Hogwarts. No one would dare hurt her best friend! Slate still had scars from when she took over from where Draco had left off. Lexis than with out meaning to screamed at the top of her lungs “KILL SMITH!”
Than in less than 10 seconds half of the stadium was chanting ‘kill smith’ Veerle laughed merrily. “It seems that the Slytherins have wished death on Smith. Poor boy!”
Lance glared he didn’t like this, he flew to Slates side and rammed himself agents him. “Leave Lyra Alone!” he hissed.
“Never!” growled Slate pushing back on Lance.
“Lyra belongs to me!” Lance snarled his anger increasing.
“To Points Gryffindor! And it seems Parker is living up to his duty of Boyfriend to Malfoy.” Veerle said in her normal bright voice, her brown eyes had to watch the entire game. Why did I ever take this job? she asked herself.
“Hear that? Everyone knows.” he hissed pushing his shoulder in to Slate’s even more forcefully!
Again Veerle spoke. “In case none of you know Parker has…” Veerle was brought up short. “10 Points Slytherin! Like I was saying Parker has been Malfoy’s knight in shining armor for a little over a year now! Souses have told me only on small quarrel between them! Wonderful couple are they not?”
Lances blue eyes were drawn away for a few seconds he dived forward to his a bludger that was aimed for Lyra.
“How long do you plan to keep this up?” asked Lyra turning suddenly on Slate, and heading the opposite direction. Suddenly Lyra heard the pitch turn to silence, as “Kill slate.” was no longer chanted… There was a very loud cheer… at first Lyra thought that the Gryffindors had caught the Snitch! But it was than that she heard a different name being chanted and screamed. Lyra paused to listen the wind whistling around her. “Parker” Lyra stopped to see Slate in the ground with the crowd cheering. Lyra turned and searched for Lance.
“The Perfect Fairy tail!” spoke Veerle “The knight wins the fight and--” she paused as Lyra spied him and dove to him pressing herself to the broom to make herself go faster, than she went to a stop next to his broom and kissed him. “Gets the girl!” cried Veerle sending a cheer through the crowd.
“LANCE! LYRA!” cried Saturn Lestrange her cousin from the three goal posts.
Lyra pulled back and smiled. “Thanks.” she said flying
around to look for the snitch, she was not getting tired of the match. She just wanted the catch the snitch and be over with it.
Lyra saw a flash of gold by Saturns shoe. Lyra dived her pony tail came undone and her hair whipped behind her. She darted around the goal posts nearly knocking Saturn from her broom. The snitch flew up, as did Lyra, it was right in front of her, she could win this! Seconds past Lyra was trying not to hold her breath as she reached out her arm outstretched to grab the little gold ball in front of her. With one last push Lyra felt the Snitch fall in to her hand her fingers closed around it. All those practices with Draco since she was 6 really paid off! She raised it above her head with a war cry.
“Lyra Malfoy has caught the Snitch Slytherin Wins!” Lance through his clenched hand in the air with a yell as a celebration. Lyra looked so beautiful when he looked at her, her silvery blond hair was swirling around her. Lances blue eyes were glazed over until he saw the horror.
It had happened in a matter of seconds one moment Lyra was celebrating and the next she was falling. It happened in seconds but for Lance it was in slow motion, Lyra was about to yell again when a blugder hit her in the throat knocking her back straight in to another bludger which hit her in the back of the neck.
Lyra felt blood flood in to her mouth as she felt a blinding pain, she fell from her broom, falling to the ground, the blood trickling from her mouth, the world was slowly becoming darker to Lyra.
The beautiful blue eyes of Lance turned and horror. “Lyra!” he cried making a dive for her. He wasn’t a seeker but Lyra wasn’t a snitch either, so he caught her with ease.
“Call on her brother and mother tell them to come at once.” Veerle heard McGonigal say fear coloring her words. Veerle’s hand had flown to her mouth when Lyra had fall, and now she bit her fingers.
Saturn dove to her cousin’s aide her black hair blowing behind her. Lance still held Lyra in his arms, she was staring up at him and he could see the pain in her eyes as blood covered her lips and mouth. “Lance… don’t leave me please!” she asked tears streaking her face. She seemed to be bagging. Lance stared at her.
“I won’t Lyra for anything!” he soothed holding her even closer as he got ready to touch the ground. It was than that fear stuck him straight in the heart, Lyra fell limp in his arms just as his feet touched the ground. He quickly found Lexis, Leo and Saturn around him with out even waiting for a teacher.
Lance sprinted ahead, adrenalin was pounding in the teenagers veins. Everyone knew that this blow could be fatal if they waited a moment longer. Saturn, Lexis and Leo all ran forward and pushed unfortunate students out of the way. They ran up the steps of Hogwarts. Leo and Saturn pushed on the hospital wings door till they were open as far as they would go!
Madame Pomfree was tending to Slate when they entered quickly. Lexis ran to her and gripped her arms angrily.
“Madame! She was hit with two bludgers to the throat!” she said about to shake her, as Lance laid Lyra on one of the beds.
Madame Ponfree ran to the girls side and placed her wand and Lyras throat, examining the wound. Leo and Lexis clung to each other comforting as Lance took Lyra’s hand and Saturn tried her best to comfort Lance. It was than that their hearts sank, Madame Pomfree frowned and tears formed in her eyes as she shook her head.
-------------------------------TEAZER--------------------------------------------
“We won’t EVER leave her” shouted Lexis at the top of her lungs. Looking at everyone like they were crazy.
“Lexis! Listen to me! You must understand the seriousness of the matter! Miss, Malfoy will die…”
