Re: The killer in me is the killer in you -- Spring 2005

I looked around and saw everyone who had come. They may not have known Keegan, but they were all mates from school... I must have either intimidated them enough or they were actually true ffriends who wanted to be here for me and Pansy. And then there was him. Father. I could not let him get away with what had happened. I would find out the truth.

I moved throughout the crowd up to where Keegan was laid. I could not imagine what Draco was feeling; if that was my daughter, I would want to find out what happened. Nothing in this life was ever an accident. I wanted Draco to know that I would help him find the truth. He would do the same if it was Marie laying there in the coffin.

"I can't believe so many people are here for us... and I don't know why. We are Malfoys after all," I said, wiping away my tears. I was not expecting so many people to show they cared.

I was startled by Pansy thinking that being a Malfoy was a bad thing. "Pansy, that's exactly why they're here," I informed her. Their namesake was everything -- yes, it had been dragged through the mud a little bit, but now it was back on track thanks to Lucius Malfoy redeeming himself the best that he could.

I want to talk to Father on my own," I said to all of the guys and Juniper standing around us. I did not wait for an answer from any of them, instead, I let go of Ian and Juniper. I started to walk away and I could hear Father following behind me. There was never any hesitation in him. Once we were far enough away from everyone, I turned around and stared at him.

I still did not think that anything added up with what had happened, but there was no proof. But I wanted him to know what would happen if I found out at all that he had anything to do with this. Keeping my voice in a deadly calm, I spoke to him: "If you had anything to do with this, I will tear away everything that you hold precious in your life. Your money. Mother. Dorian. Everything. I swear to you that if you took my daughter away from me, you will be left with nothing. Nothing. Unless you tell me now, everything that had happened that day. I might not go that far, but I swear to you... if I find out later, I will come after everything you love without mercy." I did not even wait for Father to respond and I walked away. I knew he would stick with his story, so why did I even give him a chance? I looked at Juniper and nodded slightly at her to let her know it was alright. I was shaking with anger and despair. I was so... lost.
I was surprised at first by the things that Draco was saying, but then I was furious that he thought he could threaten me. In fact, how dare he think that he would win any of this. I had much more practice with all of this than he ever has. I regained my composure and found my wife. "Poor boy, stricken with such grief," I said, acting as though what he had spoken to me were not the threats he said.

I looked up at my husband, not sure what to think. What had they been talking about? "He did just lose his daughter dear. I can only image the pain that would cause." The pain a true father would feel at the loss of his daughter. I decided to play along, it's all I really could do.

At least Uncle Draco had stopped talking to Grandpa. I saw mum standing next to Uncle Draco and other people start coming in. I looked down at my sister and gave her a small smile. I had switch my focus to my sister, it was the only thing I could control. "You good?"

I nodded at him. "I think," I said to him honestly. I was not sure how I felt. I was really sad that Keegan was gone, but the other kids were talking normally though in hushed tones. It was really confusing, though. "It's just really sad," I added, sniffling. The tears coming were real, too.

**Austin Matthews** Fri Mar 20, 2015 2:40 pm

There was tension here and I hoped that it would cease for Draco and Pansy's sake. I went over to where Lyn was -- she was letting Jetty speak to Juniper privately. "Hey Lyn," I said to her, smiling slightly. It had been awhile since we had seen our old school friend. "This is horrible."

**Juniper Malfoy Matthews** Sun Mar 22, 2015 8:30 am

I had said a few words to Draco and, on my way to say the same to Pansy, I stopped at Juniper. I put a hand on her shoulder. "I am so sorry," I said to her softly. "I heard... and how are you holding up?" This was always so hard. Lyn stayed close to me not knowing anyone here really.

I took a deep breath and let it out slowly as I gave Jetty a hug. I had given Draco some of my strength and I needed some of Jetty's. "Jetty," I said, finally letting go. "It's been so long, thank you so much for coming. It means a lot to us." I subconsciously rubbed my left forearm. The Mark wasn't that noticeable but I felt ashamed of it in front of Jetty. He had been able to resist taking it and here I was, having been forced to take it to keep the ones I love safe. He still didn't know. I shook my head to clear it and thought about the question he had asked. Why was everyone asking how I was holding up? It wasn't my daughter who had died. Even though I knew what Pansy and my brother were going through, at least they had memories of Keegan to hold onto. The only memories I had of Austin were of telling the two people I care about most in the world about him, having Lincoln read stories every night while I was pregnant and of holding him in my arms for the few precious hours he had been alive. I hung onto those memories like a life line. Of course, Jetty didn't know anything about that either. I felt tears on my cheek, wiped them away, and gave a sad little laugh. "I'm okay." I tried to assure him, even if it was probably a lie. "I'm just going to miss her."

**Abel Matthews** Thu Apr 09, 2015 8:52 am

I knelt in front of my sister and brushed away her tears. "I know. I'm sad too." I wanted her to know it was okay to be sad "Keegan was a great person. We're all going to miss her."

I had been staying close to Jetty since I was not sure who all I would know here, but I was there for support, not to socialize. So when Austin and Fiona came to me, I was slammed with the realization that Austin's brother was married to Juniper and that was Draco's sister. I gave Austin a big hug and then my best friend. Their little boy -- Reed -- was in Austin's arms; Rory, being a curious three-year-old, was holding onto his dad's hand and was standing on his own two feet looking around. "It is," I agreed. "How are the two of you holding up?" Keegan was sort of their niece in a manner of speaking

**Dorian Malfoy** Mon May 04, 2015 2:40 pm

I stayed by my grandfather. "Grandfather," I said to him quietly, "I haven't said anything." I wanted him to know that he could trust me about that blonde haired guy.

**Jetty Pettigrew** Tue May 05, 2015 5:54 pm

I tried to smile slightly at Juniper. "You guys have been through a lot," I said to her, "I know you two need as much support as you can get." I did not know the Malfoy story, but from little things that June has said through the years, it was twisted. I nodded when she spoke about missing Keegan. I had Rory's hand in mine, even though he was starting to walk circles around me as I spoke to my old school mate. "I can't even begin to imagine..." I trailed off, knowing that Juniper would understand.

**Draco Malfoy** Mon May 11, 2015 12:35 pm

I went to Pansy and put a hand around her waist to be there for her right now. I would end up finding out the truth of what happened because none of this made any sense to me.But for now, I would be the good husband nad father and not be obsessive about what had happened to my baby daughter. I looked around at everyone and nodded when they came up with their condolences. I had coworkers from the Ministry there that I really did not care for, but appreciated teh sentiment nonetheless.

**Vincent Crabbe** Tue May 12, 2015 5:38 am

I gave Pansy a hug and Draco a handshake. "How are you holding up, mate?" I asked, though I knew he would act as if everythng is alright.

I nodded, glad that I had Abel. I gave him a hug. When I broke apart from my brother, I pointed over to where Dorian was with Grandfather. "I didn't think they wanted Ian by him... should we tell Mum or Dad?" I asked him, wanting to protect Ian and make sure he did not get into trouble while dealing with this.

**Austin Matthews** Mon May 18, 2015 6:26 am

I shrugged slightly, shifting Reed. "I mean, it's going," I said. "I can't believe what happened, you know? Makes me want to double my sights on Reed... make sure nothing odd happens or anything."
