Harry Potter And The Prince Of Slytherin 3 Pansy Parkinson

"Mother, let's go. The Ollivander's is probably already open."

Narcissa sighed looking at her son, "My dear son, I know you are excited about getting your wand but we will go there after some guest arrives."

"Guests??"

"Yes, Theodore and a daughter of your father's friend are coming, since they are all going to Hogwarts with you, I thought it would be a great idea to go together with them." Narcissa smiled giving her usual 'You better make friends' look.

"Mom, I can deal with the others but why Theodore? You know I can't stand his c.o.c.ky look."

"You shouldn't say bad stuff about others, behind their back Draco." Suddenly a voice came behind Draco interrupting their conversation.

Draco's lips started twitching since he knew whose voice was it, Theodore Nott. Theodore was a son of a fellow death eater who was raised by his father after his mother's death, Theodore unlike Crabbe and Goyle was from the same social standing as him, which made Draco p.i.s.sed considering he couldn't control him like those two idiots, Theodore was smart and was very similar to Draco in terms of personality. Theodore was also very proficient in potions and Draco knew that in later years he successfully created two Time-Turners that allow the user to travel far back into time, surpa.s.sing the Hour-Reversal Charm on the Ministry-issued devices and was very clever, so Draco considered him an important a.s.set but his carefree att.i.tude made Draco really annoyed.

Draco turned back to look at the tall lanky figure and with a brilliant smile he said, "I said you have a c.o.c.ky face, Rabbit-face."

Theodore whose face was somewhat 'rabbity' wasn't insulted at all instead he just showed a smug smile, "Oh! Even though I don't consider your brewing ability to be superior of mine but when it comes to c.o.c.kiness you will win every time."

Draco who was sensitive about his villain-face, cracked his fingers as he said, "Let's take it outside so I can show you my brewing ability."

"Now, Now boys no need to fight and did you have your breakfast, Theodore?" Narcissa asked getting between them.

"Yes, Miss Malfoy." Theodore showed his gentlemen smile and said, "You look more beautiful every time I see you."

Narcissa smiled and said, "Oh! How kind of you Theodore."

"Che! You know I look the same as my mother right, you hypocrite." Draco snickered seeing that b.a.s.t.a.r.d acting like a gentleman. "So when is the other girl coming, mother?"

"Oh! What girl? Who is it?" Theodore also got interested and looked at Draco with a questioning look.

"She is the same as us, one of the sacred twenty-eight from the Parkinson family, I believe her name is Pansy Parkinson."

Draco nearly chocked hearing the name, 'Isn't this the girl who had a crush on Draco.' Draco thought.

Draco was really interested in meeting this girl since there was no clear description of her in the book, sometimes she was described as 'pug-face' and sometimes 'Pretty and vivacious'. Even her intelligence was questioned many times with even Hermione calling her "thicker than a concussed troll" but she was made a prefect and even attended N.E.W.T in Defense against the dark art, proving she isn't as dumb as people say she is. Draco was really interested in knowing what kind of girl she really is.

Draco left his mother telling her where he was going and pulled Theodore into his suitcase lab. Theodore wasn't surprised since he had been here before but he still looked around in amazement.

"No matter how many times I look at it this place, I still find it amazing; you know this kind of suitcases are very rare, even my family doesn't have one." Theodore said sitting on a nearby chair.

"Jealous?" Draco asked with a smirk.

"Yes, who wouldn't be... this level of Atmospheric charms and s.p.a.ce magic, I am certain there are only a few people who can create this." Theodore sighed turning towards Draco "So what do you need my help with?"

"Why would you a.s.sume that I need your help?" Draco said raising his eyebrows.

"Haha!" Theodore laughed "You didn't pull me here to have a chat with me, did you?"

"Che!" Draco clicked his tongue and pulled out some notes from the shelf and gave it to him,

Theodore started reading the note with a very interesting face after a while he put down the note and looked at Draco, "Antidote to Veritaserum? So you are trying to modify it."

"Yes, I want to change some ingredients but I don't want its effect to diminish."

"Draco, you are the favorite of many poor potion makers.. you are like a modern day robin hood... you steal from rich i.e your father and give the formula you created to the poor for free, there are many potion and ingredients shop owners that hate you, you know" Theodore snickered.

"Oh! When did our pure blood fanatic Theodore started reading muggle stories?" Draco smiled "And besides I have only given out the recipes that are cheaper to make but I still have many formulae that will make even the rich vomit blood, so tell me will you help me?"

"Sure, but why do you want to make it, this is already illegal and you can just practice Occlumency to fight against it, with your talent I am sure you can learn it in no time."

"I am learning it, but it will still take me another year or two to master it completely and until then I will be vulnerable against it, besides its an interesting project, isn't it?"

The main purpose of creating this potion was for his future companions who might not be able to learn Occlumency easily and might be a weak link for his future plans and the fact that he wanted to make it permanent was still a secret due to his blood so it was kinda hard to convince people to help him.

Theodore looked at Draco's eyes for a while and sighed, "Fine, I will help you but one day you have to tell me your secrets Draco."

Draco was amazed that Theodore could figure it out but he still nodded without any hesitation, "If you live up to my trust, then sure I will tell you."

Then both after forming a nonspoken agreement between them, start to work on the potion, with the help of Theodore it was much simpler than doing it alone. Theodore himself was very good at potion since a young age but due to Draco's increase in fame being a potion prodigy, Theodore's fighting spirit increased a lot, not wanting to lose to someone similar to his own age he practiced brewing potions day and night. Theodore's father is also very proficient in potions and he has his own family secret's so combining both of their work the research was very smooth.

"I think this is it." Draco said looking at the purple liquid in front of him.

"Yeah, I didn't think it would be this easy." Theodore looked at Draco with a bright smile who was doing the same.

Suddenly a pungent smell surrounded the air around them, "What's that smell?" Draco said making a disgusted look.

"Draco.."

"Yeah, what?"

"Why is the potion heating up?" Theodore asked making a weird face.

"s.h.i.t!" Draco quickly pushed Theodore and himself under the table and 'BOOM!!' The flask exploded, making the potion splatter everywhere.

"Sigh! we were too naive." Draco said looking around his lab which now smelled like a rotten egg.

"Yup! Thank Merlin, we didn't drink it." Theodore said pinching his nose looking at the mess, "Hey do you think, the person who drinks the potion would explode?"

"Well if it does then we did create something special, didn't we?" Draco said with a thoughtful look.

"Yea, should we try this potion on your lab rats."

"Well, I don't really want to kill them so early on."

Both of them looked at each other and started laughing out loud, if someone were to see them now they would probably conclude that they were planning something bad, 'Dammit! Evil face!'

After a while, Draco stood up taking out an old wand. He waved the wand around using a cleaning charm, to clean up the mess.

"Your charms are getting better." Theodore commented looking around the once messy place now being spotless, "But we still have to do something about the smell."

"Yup." Draco was about to say something but was interrupted by a knocking sound. "Mother is probably calling us, let's go."

Draco and Theodore walked out of the suitcase as Narcissa was looking at them with a strange face, "Why do both of you smell so bad?"

"An accident." Draco said with Theodore nodding his head.

Narcissa sighed taking out her wand and with a wave, the bad smell was gone. "Come downstairs, Pansy and her father have already arrived."

Draco nodded and followed her with Theodore walking behind him, and walked into the living room.

Inside the living room, Lucius was talking to a bearded man laughing and beside the man was a little cute looking girl with black hair.

"Oh! Draco you are finally here." Lucius stood up walking behind him and patted his shoulders, "This is my son, Draco. Draco, this is Mr. Roy Parkinson." (I couldn't find the name of Pansy's dad so I just made one up.)

Draco did a n.o.ble bow with his hands on his chest and said, "h.e.l.lo, Mr. Parkinson. Its a pleasure to meet you."

"Oh the pleasure is all mine, I finally got to meet the rumored genius." The man stood up from his seat and laughed, "You look like your mother but your hair and eyes are similar to your fathers."

The man then pushed the girl behind him forward, she was looking at him with an interested look, "This is my daughter Pansy Parkinson, Pansy where are your manners?"

"Oh it doesn't matter, Mr. Parkinson" Draco said walking in front of the girl who had a cute round face, he took her hand and kissed the back of it like a gentleman causing the girl to blush, "Since we will be attending the same school, let's be friends."

"Sure." The girl replied shyly.

Draco was surprised by Pansy's shy behavior since she was known to be quite snappy.

"You can call me Draco and this rabbit face behind me is Theodore."

"Nice to meet you, Miss Parkinson," Theodore said with a slight bow.

"You can call me Pansy." Pansy nodded at Theodore quickly turning to look back at Draco again, which cause Theodore's lips to twitch.

After the brief introduction between them, Narcissa walked over.

"I will be taking you to three to Diagon Alley to buy your supplies, Let's go."

The three of them nodded and followed Narcissa to the fireplace, where they used floo powder to teleport at the Leaky Cauldron.
