Chapter 1 Sorting and Hogwarts Feast
As Selina Snape walked into the great hall with all the First Years she smiled. It felt good to come to a school knowing that her father went to the same one. Her hair fell down past her shoulders in deep black waves, her eyes were a dark violet and her skin was as pale as snow. She saw in her pictures she looked a little like her father but a lot of people say she resembled her mother more.
As they approached the stool with a hat sitting on it she decided to look at the table lined with the teachers. She first spotted Dumbledore who was an older man and seemed to smile a lot. She then noticed one teacher in particular. He had black hair and pale skin with black eyes. She knew immediately that it was her father. Her mother told her before she left for the train that her father didn't know about her and she was ok with that. She planned on getting to know him soon, she had told her mom that she planned on staying for the holidays to try and learn more about him.
She smiled gently as Professor McGonagall started calling out the names for the sorting. She had evidentially missed the hats song for spacing out like she did. As she called out the names and got closer to her own she started getting nervous. She knew her father was in Slytherin and knew that she didn't want to be in that house. She was just hoping it wouldn't upset him too much. Then she heard the last person go before her.
She shook off the nerves before the Professor yelled her name "Snape, Selina!" She watched as her father sat up straighter with a confused look on his face. She smiled gently as she headed to the stool turning around and facing the students she sat down and the hat was placed on her head "Another Snape I see. Nothing like your father I tell. You have a little bit of Slytherin in you but more smarts and courage I know just where to put you. Gryffindor!" As the hat screamed out the house she smiled and removed the hat before running over to the table.
There were a few cheers but the hall was mainly silent for she knew that no one knew Snape had a daughter. He didn't even know. She glanced at him at the high table and noticed his look was one of shock. He was looking at her and she gave him a look of questioning. He looked away and she turned to join the others in conversation. A girl with bushy brown hair turned to her "Hello. I'm Hermione Granger" She smiled at her "I'm Selina Snape. Are you excited for classes to start? I know I am. My mom has told me a lot about Hogwarts and I can't wait to start on Potions!"
Hermione smiled at her "I can't wait to start Transfiguration it seems the most fascinating. Potions doesn't seem to be difficult but I heard the teacher is unbearable." She smiled at Hermione "My mom told me and Professor Snape could be mean. I've never met him and he doesn't know about me either so it's going to be a fun first year" Hermione laughed "I can't wait to see his face when he notices he's your father." She looked at her shocked "How did you know he was my father?"
Hermione smiled gently "It's an easy resemblance you look just like him." She looked at her and smiled "Thanks. I've seen pictures of him but people keep saying I look like my mom. She tells me I have some of his personality I just hope his personality isn't too bad." She laughed along with Hermione as the feast began. She knew her and Hermione would be best friends.
Everything was going well and she couldn't be any happier that she was in Gryffindor. As the feast ended her and Hermione headed to the dormitory following the prefect Percy Weasley. As they arrived into the common room Percy mentioned where the dorms were and which ones was the boys and the girls. Hermione grabbed her arm "I hope we get in the same room! That would be a lot better than being with the others." She nodded her head as she followed Hermione. In the room they noticed that they were rooming together and got ready for bed. As they laid down in bed they immediately fell asleep for the night.
