103 Male Veela (1/2)
”Don't compare me to that idiot.” Draco said. Theodore made him remember something, Draco hadn't told anyone about the topic of him going to Durmstrang because he didn't want them to get involved yet since these things included something personal as well. ”Theodore, this year... can you focus more on magical training?--Maybe even train others a little more.”
”Why?” Theodore asked with his eyebrows raised. ”Is the Veela thing acting up?”
”No.. why would you even assume that?”
”I don't know. Whenever I look at your face and how it's different compared to the past, I can't help but remember the new veela side in you.” Theodore said, ”The threat of you being a veela is always going to be around, which is a very concerning matter and the way you just said those words, it felt like you weren't going to be present with us.”
”Don't think too much.” Draco said clicking his tongue, ”Just do as I say.”
”Fine.” Theodore said, ”So how is the Veela thing anyway? Is being the only male Veela in existence an interesting thing?”
”Not too good,” Draco said, opening his fist as a fire emerged from his hands and quickly disappeared as he closed his fist back. ”I am not sure, I can be proud of being the only one for the first time.”
Theodore looking into it, looked at Draco seriously, ”Have you started transforming yet?”
”No signs of it. I have come up with several theories as to what is going on with me.” Draco shook his head, even though turning into a Veela wasn't a bad thing, but still, Draco didn't want to be a monster. In fact, he was fine being a half-veela of some sort, due to his increased perception of feeling the mana around him but other than that, he didn't want to turn to a monster. ”One is either, nothing is going to happen after this and this fire is only an advantage-- second, the transformation is a slow process, and it's slowly turning me into a Veela and there are many other possibilities that could happen.”
Theodore nodded, ”If there is a poison, then there has to be a cure as well, if you do turn into a full Veela maybe we can fix up a potion to negate the effects--talking about the potion, have you experimented with the Philosopher's stone yet?” Theodore said trying to change the depressing topic.
”What do you think?”
”Knowing you, I can't think of any reasons, you wouldn't by now.” Theodore said, ”So what did you find?”
”As expected the stone's pretty much useless for now.” Draco said lazily, ”Without formations, the stone can't turn things into gold and without the potion formula, we can forget about the elixir of life.”
”So we can't do anything with it for now?” Theodore asked frowning.
”We can experiment with it, in other fields using a variety of potions with it, since that's what we basically planned to do from the very beginning and as for the other uses, I am sure Nicholas Flamel knew, I would hit this bottleneck.” Draco said, ”Maybe that's why, he was so confident in giving me the stone, even with all the rumors going around about me.”
”So are you really going to meet him?”
”I have to.” Draco said, ”Even though I am not interested in Elixir of Life, I still need access to the formation for turning things into gold as that will stabilize my financial condition.”
”Oh, is the Prince having trouble saving up money?”
”You don't know about it yet, do you?-- Now that I think about it, I never told you about my purchase.”
”What are you talking about?”
”Follow me.” Draco said, leading Theodore to his room and inside the suitcase.

”So you're telling me, that you blew almost all of your money in an auction, buying these weird creatures?” Theodore said not believing what he was seeing.
”Yes...”
”Why?” Theodore was confused, he couldn't think of any reason where Draco would need all these items and add to that, he bought some elf's to go along with the whole set as well.
”You probably don't know, since you weren't conscious when that happened, but these creatures here saved my life, without them, I am sure that I couldn't defeat all those wizards by myself.” Draco said, ”And hey, almost every creature has at least one use to them. Fighting with an army of creature's sounds interesting, doesn't it?”
