"Can you explain in detail?" Arya asked as she narrowed her eyes.
"Pius was the prime example of what I just said." Draco continued as he tried remembering the details of the incident, "Pius wasn't a minion of Ryan but was manipulated by him. The manipulation was to such perfection, that it felt like Ryan had just drunk some polyjuice potion and was now pretending to be Pius as he stood in front of me. If that wasn't enough he tried taking control of Theodore who was captured by him at the time but luckily his plan failed."
"What changed?"
Draco went silent for a while as he recalled the incident, "As far as I think, I feel it was due to our blood pact."
"You have a blood pact with Theodore?" Walter asked as he raised his eyebrows, "When did you two get so close?"
"After you, all left we were the only remaining ones so why not." Draco said shrugging his shoulders, "But as I was saying, I think the blood pact affected Theodore as he couldn't act against out on me. We all know that Blood pacts are more serious than the unbreakable vow, so with it, I feel like it's hard for even Ryan to control someone. Like in my example, Theodore couldn't attack me as we have a 'not harming each other' thing going in our pact."
"Let's do it then." Arya said after thinking for a while.
"Do what?"
"The pact." Arya said, "We already have a contract among us so you know I can't betray you and then again if this pact stops us from harming one another then isn't it helpful considering how Ryan could manipulate one of us to gather pieces of information."
"True." Draco agreed, "I am sure he has eyes and ears all over Durmstrang so seeing we are all getting chummy, he might have a different plan for us ready."
"What are we waiting for then?" Arya said taking out her wand.

"Wait! Doesn't my opinion matter?" Walter said looking sad but no one gave him sympathy he wanted.
"Not really, I mean since you know all this I can't let you go without signing a contract first." Draco said, "I thought we were friends so I didn't think I needed to ask this."
"Yes Walter, I have tried pushing you towards the good light for a long time now but looking at it now I feel like I've failed." Arya added, "Do you really want to act like that instead of just helping a friend."
"Don't make me look bad!" Walter said in a frustrated tone causing the two of them to chuckle.
With the mood lightened, the three of them sat in a triangulated position. The three made a small cut in both their hands with their wands and interlaced them in a triangulated manner. As they made their oath of never betraying each other in any way possible and never want harm for the other as they chanted the required mantra.
Soon the three glowing drops of blood raised from their palms and mingled into one. A vial started to shape around it, enclosing the drop, signifying that the deal was struck.
Draco captured the vial, which was slightly larger than the previous one he made with Theodore.
"Who's going to keep it?" Walter asked.
"I will." Draco said, "At least I have some protection against it."
"Where?" Arya asked with her eyes furrowed.
Draco pondered for a while but since the three of them had already had a blood pact along with the fact that now they had to battle together, they at least needed a place to train. So Draco decided to come clean about his suitcase.
"Do you think you can put up more security charms around the place?"
"That's my forte." Arya said standing up as she chanted three different spells covering the whole room again, "One on the outside is the external layer as long as someone enters the door we will be aware of it. The second one gives the effect that the room is empty and the final one is a shield type charm so it will take a lot of effort to break it and we can at least have some time to do what we're doing."
"What are we doing exactly?"
"This." Draco said putting his suitcase in front of them as he opened it, "Let's go."
At first, the two of them were confused as to what he was talking about but when they saw Draco jump inside the case they finally realized what he was talking about. They looked at one another and jumped in as well. Going in they saw the scenery suddenly change, the suitcase seemed to have a world on its own.
"What in the Merlin name is this Draco?" Walter asked confused and amazed at the same time.
"Follow me." Draco said leading the two, "It's an expandable suitcase."
"Yeah, I get that but why is there a Dragon here?"
"Dra- Dragon? Where?" Walter looked around but couldn't find it until Arya grabbed hold of his chin and directed it towards the empty field a bit far away. Walter gulped as he finally laid eyes of the Dragon, though not as large as a fully grown Dragon, it was still big enough to kill someone. The Dragon which he recognized to be a Norwegian Back, burned the meat that was placed on the ground and ate it.
"Bloody hell, why didn't you say you have a Dragon before?" Walter said his eyes opened wide, "With this, we can win the fight easily."
"Not so easy as you think." Draco said, "Last time when we battled in Romania. Ryan figured most of the creatures that I carried with me. Along with my battle power. I later realized that all the things he did were probably just to grasp the limit of my ability."
"What other creature..." Just as Walter was about to ask, he suddenly saw a huge three-headed Dog in front of him. Since he was so busy watching the Dragon he didn't really notice the obvious huge Dog in front of him.
Draco was more than close with Fluffy these days, so he didn't quite require his favorite ball to be near him. Though he could still hear him growling looking at Arya and Walter.
"Calm down, boy." Draco said, "It's okay."
Fluffy looked at him and then back at the two strangers, though he stopped growling he didn't quit staring at him. Draco let it be as he went near the house he had built and from within his shirt, he took out the vial they had just created. He stretched his hands forward and the vial itself lifted up and went inside the house through a specific small hole as it began revolving the first vial he had kept.
"That should be safe." Draco said casually returning back but looking at Arya's questioning look he answered, "No one can open the case instead of me and even if they did manage to get in forcefully, all my defenses would go up along with all the creatures that will be released."
"Master it good to see you." One of the elves came up towards them while they were on the verge of starting another argument again, "May I ask if you need anything?"
"Not right now." Draco shook his head but suddenly something crossed his mind as he had a huge grin on his face, "But I may need you and the other elves do some work for me."
"Anything for you master." The elf said sincerely not understanding but Walter and even Arya felt a shiver run down their spine seeing Draco's villain face.
