Chapter 8
A few hours later 5pm
Standing in the shadows I huff looking around for Myrtle and Minerva.
"Kreacher" I whisper.
He pops in looking uncomfortable "yes Miss?"
"I need you to go get the muggle money I have hidden in my room and come back here" I whisper.
He nods leaving just as my friends join with Pomona following them glaring "what are you up to?" She demands.
Holding up a finger I smile as Kreacher pops back in, gently grabbing his hand I make everyone touch him "take us to muggle London" I whisper.
He leaves taking us before Pomona can react, landing in an alley I smirk glancing around "go grab Walburga and bring her here even if you have to force her".
He nods leaving again "Aquila, we will get in so much trouble if we are caught leaving the school" Pomona hisses looking around nervously.
Hearing Walburga's voice picking up I jump forward covering her mouth "shush, he did what I told him we're in muggle London do not expose magic" I say quickly.
"Mother and father will be very disappointed in you doing this" she hisses.
"I'm doing something important and we need an adult with us" I answer while she transfigures our clothes to look more muggle.
"He took me from a meeting with mother and father about possible husbands and made it clear his young Miss demanded I was brought to her even if he had to force me"
Sighing I nod "not the first time I've done it, they're use to it by now" I say before shrugging and walking out.
Looking around I frown "Myrtle where do we find personal hygiene?"
She cackles before leading us to a store "we need to hurry they are closing soon".
Nodding I motion her forward "I'll let you handle this, you know how it works".
She smiles skipping through "so what are we needing?"
"Hair and body care, teeth care, and something to help with body oder".
"How many?"
"Grab 15 of each for now" I say shrugging.
She nods grabbing them before going to the man in front who looks shocked before telling us the price, nodding I dig out my muggle money handing it to Myrtle shrugging when she glares at me.
Once she gets what she needs I smile taking the money back and grabbing my stuff walking out.
"Is that all?" Walburga demands.
"Yes for now" I say as we head back to the alley.
"Kreacher come take us to Black Manor please"
He pops in allowing us to grab him and quickly takes us.
Arriving at home I smile seeing my parents glaring at me "hello mother and father, I have a big request but it will help our families standing in the community in the long run".
Father sighs motioning me to the sitting room "another idea?"
Nodding I sit down putting the bag beside my leg "Yes we can bridge the gap between us, squibs, and muggle borns if we start an outreach program to teach muggles about our culture and in return they can teach us about theirs, and a magical child safety program to make sure muggle borns are not being abused at home".
They nod listening to me calmly like always "Oh and include squibs in that, we could teach them how to survive in the muggle world, help them with learning, and this" I add lifting the bag they frown looking at it.
"It's muggle hygiene products we can give these out allowing them a chance to be clean and not look like they're dirty, please we're one of the most important and respected families here, if we do this it could make others take notice. We lead by example and show we can still respect our traditions and heritage while helping others"
