Title: Coraline Fudge
Summary: This is the story of Coraline Fudge, the only child of Cornelius Fudge. This takes place in her fourth year, which is Harry's fifth year.
If either of us were J.K Rowling would we be writing stories about characters who never even existed?
Chapter One
"Dad, can we please go already? You promised to take me into Diagon Alley ages ago!"
"I have to go to this hearing"
"What hearing? Who in the world is more important than spending time with me? Was this that toad, Umbridge's idea?"
"She is not a toad"
"Yeah yeah .. just answer the damn question!"
"Coraline Andrina Fudge! Watch the language" Cornelius said "It's Harry Potter's hearing for-"
"That stupid thing? You're joking! He is innocent. You-Know-Who has returned! Now take me shopping before I get upset"
"So he told you those lies too? You are not to hang out with him this year"
"Take me shopping damn it!"
"I'll have my assistant take you…Percy!"
"I am not going shopping with that prissy suck up you call a-hello Percy, how are you this morning?"
"Good thanks, you needed to see me?
"Yes what are you doing today?"
"being a scribe for Mr. Potters hearing."
"Mr. Potter? He is your brother's best friend! And, damn it he is innocent! He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named is-"
"Stop!"
"You know what I'll just have Delores take you later if you're going to throw a fit about it."
"I'm not going anywhere with that toad!"
"Hem, hem" a small cough filled the room
"That woman drives me so crazy! I can even hear that annoying fake cough of hers! That woman…is right behind me isn't she?"
Percy and her father nodded
Coraline slowly turned around "Delores! Wonderful to see you again… I'm just going to find Ginny…"
"NO! She supports Potter and I don't want you exposed to the lies he's been spreading why don't you go spend time with that nice Malfoy boy?"
"What nice Malfoy boy? The only Malfoy boy I know is Draco, and he's as big of a butthead as his father and mother"
"That's it you are going to the Malfoys till I'm done with work and we'll go shopping tomorrow."
"Daddy, don't send me to the Malfoys! I swear to you, ten minutes there, and I'll kill myself…see if I don't! Those people have the qualifications of Death Eaters!"
"Lucius Malfoy is one of my best employees"
"He's one of your biggest suck ups you mean…what about Nymphadora Tonks, can I hang out with her? Or Kingsley Shacklebolt? Or even Mad-Eye!"
"My dear Aurors have more important things to do than babysit." Delores said
"Don't 'my dear' me you-"
"Coraline!"
"you…uh….you…Percy, help me out here"
"You are on your own"
"You know what I'm just gonna go to Diagon Ally by myself!"
"You will not! Come on, Lucius is in his office, I'll take you there before I go to the trial"
20 minutes later
"Tonks, hide me!"
"From?"
"Your mental aunt's husband…the man my mental father is having me be baby-sat by"
"Sorry but I'm working and I just got a tip as to where… well who I'm after is."
"Take me with you! I beg of you! If you have any kindness in that great big heart-"
"There you are Coraline."
"Hello Uncle Lucius" Tonks said forcing a smile on her face "Now, if you would excuse me…Kingsley and I have some work to do"
Malfoy nodded, "Coraline I told you to stay put is this your idea of staying put in my office… never mind that was rhetorical come on your going to the manor so I can get some work done."
"Damn…an afternoon with butthead Jr." Coraline mumbled
"What did you say?"
"Nothing"
"I don't have time to figure out what you said come on." He grabbed her arm and apperated them to his home and then apperated back to work
At the Malfoy Manor
"Hey Cori" Draco said
"Hello"
"What do you want to do? We can go flying…or swimming…or just about anything you want to do"
"an we hex Umbridge to the next century!" Cori asked excitedly
"Uh…no"
"Then I have no ideas of what to do…can we hex Weasley!"
"I like this idea so far…are we talking the twins, Ron, Ginny…maybe hex that mudblood if she is around…and Saint Potter"
"I'm talking about Percy"
"No, we can not hex Percy"
"Why not!"
"Because we aren't allowed to leave the house"
"Why?"
"Because he thinks you'll leave"
"Well…how were we going to hex anyone in Percy's family or Hermione…we can't hex Harry, he isn't there"
"Why not?"
"It's Ministry business"
"Fine… hey I know we can just sit here and look at each other."
"Why?" Cori asked pulling away from Draco
"There is no point in denying it Cori" Draco said "I know you find me irresistible"
"Yes of course."
"And you are the most beautiful girl at Hogwarts… I still don't see why you didn't go to the Yule Ball with me."
"I…uh…I was behind on my Potions work"
"Snapes my godfather I could have talked to him."
"That wouldn't be fair to the other Gryffindors"
"You Gryffindors are too noble… too bad you weren't in slytherin you and I could have ruled Slytherin."
"I can hardly imagine how wonderful that would have been" Cori said in a bored voice
"How are things going here?"
"Fine mother"
"Hello Mrs. Malfoy" Cori said "My, you look younger every day!"
Narcissa beamed "Thank you Coraline"
"Mother can we go bother some… people from school?"
"Like…?"
"Weaslbe and that mudblood Potter hangs out with."
"Your father told you to stay here Draco"
"Can we send them Howlers filled with insults then?"
"Draco, get a life" Cori said
"Well if I could get you to go without me, I'd have a life. I don't understand it…you are the only girl who has ever turned me down…I think it is time Hogwarts experienced some inter-house unity"
"Then become friends with Harry"
"Are you crazy!"
"That would be inter-house unity" Cori said "Why don't you o out with Lavander Brown…or Susan Bones, or one of the Patil twins! They are your own age and that would also be inter-house unity"
"Who says I want to date someone my own age? Who said I hadn't dated them already"
"Fine…go out with Ginny"
"No! She's related to weasel"
"Hermione Granger"
"I'm not that desperate for a life!"
"Luna Lovegood!"
"Loony Lovegood?" Draco said and laughed "Not a chance"
"I give up!" Cori said
"So you'll go out with me?" Draco asked
"If I go out with you, will you leave me alone?"
"Sure" Malfoy said
"Fine Draco, I'll date you"
"You will!" Draco said excitedly
"Sure…but you better made it worth my time"
