AN: Sorry Guys if this story has really bad grammar, i check it as much as i could but i am dyslexic. Please try not to be too harsh about it but i would love any reviews telling me how i am doing with this story. Enjoy :)

The Grand hall was silent. Her brothers mouths wide open, her cousins smiles wiped from their faces and the ghosts paled. Even Ms McGonagall was silent with her eyes wide open. No one was clapping the newly housed girl. No one smiled or cheered. No one even uttered a vowel until they heard the brown raggedy hat chuckle.

"Your almost as bad as the Malfoy boy. Had the whole hall gapping at him. You are even worse a Malfoy in Gryffindor is bad but a Potter in Slytherin is horrible." The sorting hats words rang through the beautifully decorated room. It hadn't been bad when Malfoy had been sorted into Gryffindor, it had been a amazing. At first it had been a shock to the school but them they all became under the charm of the good looking, sweet talking Malfoy. It had actually become a running gag of what the young Malfoy might to upset his ancestors, win the house cup for Gryffindor, be best friends with a Potter and even date a muggle-born. Everybody loved Malfoy except for the one girl who made the exact same decision as him. To reject what your family say and be true to your own beliefs.

The famous Harry Potter did say that he would be fine if any of his children got sorted into a different house them him, even Slytherin but he thought he knew his children well enough to know that they would all be sorted into Gryffindor. He hadn't the slightest clue that his little baby girl would be the one to break the family tradition. No it wasn't a family tradition to be sorted into the same house. In fact a lot of the Potter-Weasley clan had been sorted into different houses like Teddy in Hufflepuff or Molly and Rose in Ravenclaw. Even in Lily's year there was Hugo who had been sorted into Hufflepuff. Everyone was happy for them even encouraged them to be true to themselves but things were different in this case. This was Lily.

Lily had always been a special girl. She always had to do things her way like when she was five Fleur made her go to ballet lessons for as Fleur said "When I zee 'er I do not zee a girl" and tutted as if it was Harry's and Ginny's fault that Lily refused to wear dresses or skirts and every time she went to nursery would get covered in mud from head to toe. When Lily had been dropped off at the Ballet School for Girls she would refuse to take her shoes off and so she would only wear her converse. It was quite a sight to see this little red headed girl wearing a pink tutu and her black converse. Even Granny Weasley knew that Lily was different. She always said, "If there are two ways to do something. Lily will find the third to do it." It was true Lily was always doing things her way. Even her godmother Luna said she danced to the beat of her own drum.

The first few years were hard for her. Her old friends didn't talk to her and spread vicious rumours about her all over the school about her. She held her head high though, refusing to let them know how much they hurt. In the corridor she would just smile at them as if they were her best friends. Most of her family didn't know what to do with her so they simply did nothing. They didn't speak to her, listen to her or even acknowledge her existence. This was even harder for her. Lily had never been that popular in school with girls, so all her friends had been males. This made making friends for Lily exceptionally hard as her brothers were incredibly over-protecting of her. Her friends were her family. She was close to most of them, incredibly close to Teddy. He was like a brother to her. A first it seemed like Teddy was going to stick by her, even if she was in Slytherin but after the first few months he abruptly changed his mind and stopped talking to her. No one knew why.

Her brothers were confused, they didn't know what to do. They had always loved Lily. Lily the girl who would break up their arguments by joining in with the fight. Who was more like brother than sister. Who told her brothers who had been protecting her her whole life that she could do it and the next day when a girl pushed her. Lily gave her a black eye. Where was this girl? Because all they saw was some stupid Slytherin girl. They decided to forget she was family. After all no family of their would leave them for some stupid Slytherin boys. This was another factor which affected her brothers. Since Lily had no one to keep the boys away from her. All her friends were boys. This made the girls hate her even more.

In her first term of Hogwarts, James even saw someone pushed her up against a wall and slap her across the face. She started shouting at her for stealing her boyfriend. She called Lily a slut, slag and every other name in the book but Lily never once look at the girl. She was staring at James. Her eyes were, indeed not the original Lily's green but were like melted gold. When she look at James he saw all her confusion and hurt in her eyes and somethings else. It was like she was daring him to come and help her. To see if he had the guts to do anything about it. He didn't. So Lily looked up at the girl and smiled then gave her a punch in the jaw. It dislocated the jaw. Lily had detention with Ms McGonagall for the rest of the first term. Which was actually okay with her as Ms McGonagall understood what was going on and was one of the few people who would talk to her about how her family was. While Lily was their she had also become prone to talking to Professor Dumbledor and Snape. Dumbledor was so proud of the small red-headed girl. She knew what she believed in and wasn't afraid to show it. She was funny, charming and witty. Snape at first only talk to her because of how much she looked like Lily. Instead of the ginger hair that most Weasley have, she had this dark red hair and even her smile reminded him of his Lily. Once getting to know this Lily however he found himself looking forward to these meetings as she would always make him laugh with the stories she heard around the castle when she was 'on one of her walks.'

That was another part of Lily's problem, she had the awful habit of being alone. She would often just take off. Go on a two hour or longer walk into all sorts of places, the kitchens were she would find a quiet corner to read in or the wondering the dungeons were she could find all sorts of funny or creepy ghosts. Her favourite place to be was the forbidden forrest. She loved the quiet atmosphere which was everywhere in the empty forrest. She even loved the black lake. She would row a boat out to the middle of the lake and would just sit there and think. Sometimes people would see her and would think that she was a ghost. Lily would always smile to herself when people started making stories up about 'the ghost of the black lake'. Apparently, she was the wife of a navy officer who died at sea, so as his loving wife she also killed herself and she also was thrown into a sinking boat after having an affair with both Salazar Slytherin and Godric Gryffindor. What a busy girl she was!

Lily being in her fourth year in hogwarts was finally growing accustomed to her life. Her family ignored her, her friends were only Slytherin Boys. All of the school except some of Slytherin house hated her and were proud to show it. Lily thought this year was going to be the same as any other . She at least she hoped to god that it would go smoothly. But when had things every gone smoothly for this Potter.

AN: Whatcha think. Good. Bad. Hate it or love it, i just wanna see what you think. Please review.
