Hi there, this is my first attempt at a story so be nice lol I really don't do fan fictions i mainly read them but my friend insisted I give it a try....so i will.
Disclaimer I do not own The whole Harry potter thing or the snarky potions master*sad face* trust me if I did I certainly would not have time to do this ;D I do own the orginal characters especially Lazune!
I would love to know what you guys think!
Chapter one: A new Start
"All aboard the Hogwarts Express!" The conductor called to the swarm of bustling parents and children. Among the swarm stood a 11 year old girl a anxious look on her face." But what if they don't like me?"
"Now sweetie," her father said bending down beside her. He gave her a loving smile like he always did," They would be crazy not to like you." He gave her a kiss on the forehead before he stood back up and let her mother bend down to speak to her.
"He's right Sirrina, you will be amazing and you can write us anytime you like. We love you sweetheart," She too gave the young girl a kiss on the head." Now go before you miss the Train."
With new found confidence her hazel eyes sparkled," Bye mum, bye dad love you." She gave them one last smile before she quickly ran onto the train. Once inside her confidence vanished as fast at it came. Every compartment she walked passed was full of students chatting away some stopped and stared at her while other ignored her completely. Walking further to the back she finally came across a compartment with only two boys inside. It only took her a minute to realize that one of the boys was her best friend, she slid the door open and walked in and squealed," Ron!"
The boy whipped his head towards the door smiling at the voice, "Sirrina bloody hell I thought you miss the train."
"Nope, but I almost did," She sat down beside him and the two gave each other a hug. As they released each other she turned her attentions to the boy sitting across from them." Hello, I'm Sirrina," She held out her small hand smiling friendly at him.
The boy smiled back in return taking her hand and shaking it," Hi Sirrina it's nice to meet you, I'm Harry Potter."
Sirrina's eyes grew huge for a moment as she let go of his hand," Whoa I have heard about you but I thought you didn't exist....it's great to meet you Harry," her voice was filled with excitement which caused the boy to chuckle at her. Three talked with each for awhile when the door slid open again causing them all to look up at the newcomer. There stood a girl already in her school robes her hair was bushy as a lions mane. She walked in without asking to and sat down beside Harry," Hello I'm Hermione Granger, and you three are?"
They introduced themselves to the girl who nodded in reply to the group. Sirrina could tell this girl was exceptionally smart for her age and would most likely out do all three of them put together. At one point she looked at Hermione who was starring at her necklace," What?" Hermione jumped startled that she had gotten caught.
"Your necklace It reminds me of a necklace I saw in a book I read. It's called a Containment Talisman. Who ever owns the necklace wears it as a symbol that they are cursed with a sprit. The talisman controls the sprit until the owner is certain age if the owner can not control the spirits power without the talisman the sprit takes complete control of the body. The sprits power can be controlled or released by emotions, actions and thoughts."
All three looked at the bushy haired girl, Sirrina felt the blood in her body pulse faster and a deep growl echo in her head." That's interesting but I don't know what book you read that from this is a simple family heirloom from my mothers side. If you will excuse me I'm going to go and change into my robes," She hastily left the compartment leaving the others confused at her sudden exit.
Ron looked at her Hermione his eyes narrowed shaking his head." Bloody fantastic you've upset her," He fussed.
"I didn't mean to upset her," Hermione replied in a worried tone.
"Yeah well you did, her real mum died when she was younger and that's all she has of her."
Hermione gave a looked sorrowful" I didn't know I'll apologize right away once she returns.
They rode the rest of the way in silence waiting for Sirrina to come back and join them but she never did. She had found an empty compartment sitting down by the window she let her head rest against the cool glass. -Nosey Brat needs to mind her own business
"Lazune please don't do this now. You know what happened last time we got angry and I couldn't control you enough to stop you. I want to seem normal for once in my life," She mumbled to herself. She was glad no one was walking past or sitting with her she would have looked like a complete loon talking to herself.-But you're not normal Sirrina, you're cursed. You better learn to control your emotions if you want to control me. If not once your 14 your body's all mine-
"Trust me I will control you by then or you can have it, I will love to see how you will act as a young woman," She replied grinning.
She could see him laughing inside her mind closing her eyes she could see crystal blue ones starring back at her in the dark, the ones that haunted her for so long-we'll see lil one we'll see.
Sirrina didn't run into the gang until they had reached the castle and were waiting to enter the great hall.
"Where did you go Rina? We were waiting for you, "Ron whispered to her as he came to stand by her.
"Sorry, I didn't feel good you know how I get when I talk about my real mum." she whispered back watching the stern older woman slip through the double doors leaving them all be themselves.
"She wanted to say she was sorry but you never came back."
She looked past Ron to Hermione and back to Ron," Tell her when you get the chance I'm fine no worries, Oh look we're about to go in, "She whispered excitedly. At that moment the doors swung open the children were blinded by a golden light as they began to walk in. Once their eyes had adjusted to the brightness of the room they could see the long tables where the students sat. Flags with the house crest and color hung over the tables of each house. The ceiling was bewitched to look like the night sky the silvery stars twinkling bright lightly. All the way in the front was the woman that had lead them in by a stool with a beat up hat on it. She held a large scroll no doubt with all the newest students names on it.
"We will now begin the sorting when I call your name please come forward so you can be sorted into your house. Abien, Scarlett!"
A blonde headed girl slowly made her way to the front and sat down on the stool.
The hat was placed down on her head instantly the hat bellowed,"HufflePuff!"
The HufflePuff table clapped and cheered as the beaming young girl joined them. The list continued
"Granger, Hermione!"
She gave the three a nervous look and made her way up to the front. The hat was placed on her head, "Gryffindor!" She hopped off the stool and joined the cheering table.
"I hope we all get Gryffindor," Harry said in a nervous tone.
"Well I'll be next out of us since it's going by last names, but me too Harry I hope we all do." Sirrina said as her heart raced. The names were called, the tables cheered Sirrina, Ron and Harry grew more nervous by the minute. "Peters, Sirrina"
"Good luck Rina," Ron said smiling at her.
"Thanx, good luck to you guys to." She made her way to the front all eyes on her it didn't help her nervous stomach one bit. She sat down on the stool shaking slightly as the hat was placed on her head. "Hmmm you have your mothers raven claw smarts that's true, you have your fathers Gryffindor bravery. Yet there is more to you isn't there?' The hat said for only her to hear. "You have strength that will make you great. The question is will you choose to the path that has been beaten for everyone else or show the world the light in the darkness?…..Let it be SLYTHERIN!"
The Slytherin table cheered as all the others barely made a sound. Her heart sank she was placed into the most hated house in school. She looked out to Ron and Harry who looked utterly shocked then to the Gryffindor table to Hermione and Ron's to older brothers Fred and George. They all had the same expression on their faces it made her want to just cry. She hopped off the stool and made her way to the slytherin table. Her classmates patted her on the back as they congratulated her. Sirrina smiled slightly sitting down by a raven haired girl and a red head. She recognized the two from earlier in the sorting. The raven haired was Clair Daven and the red head was Phoenix Maysler. The two girls looked at Sirrina and smiled.
"Hi, I'm Clair."
"And I'm Phoenix,"
"It's nice to meet you two," She said with a meek smile. They all went back to watching the sorting Harry got Gryffindor. He gave Sirrina a sympatric look as he joined his team at this several of her teammates gave her a weird look ."You know that Potter guy?" Clair asked.
She shook her head." Not really I just met him today."
"I'd stay away from him he's not a friendly to us, especially being a Gryffindor." Clair replied in a dark tone.
Sirrina didn't say anything she didn't know what she could say. Certainly she didn't want her all her teammates to hate her all because she saw Harry as a ok guy. Ron was one of the last ones called and of course he got Gryffindor as well. She could feel her heart shattering her last hope of having a friend be with her was walking to the rival table. Once the sorting was over Professor Dumbledore stood up to talk Sirrina heard none of it she was to crushed to be excited anymore. She snapped out of her trance when the delicious food appeared in front of them. Everyone helped themselves to the feast laid out before them except for Sirrina. She ate maybe a few bites of her shepherds pie and a roasted chicken leg. Clair nudged Phoenix as she nodded to the down looking Sirrina.
"Hey what's wrong Sirrina?" Phoenix asked in a worried tone.
She looked up at the two girls and shook her head "It's nothing really I'm fine."
"It doesn't look like nothing, it looks like something to me," Clair replied taking a sip from her goblet.
Sirrina sighed they weren't going to stop pestering her until she told them."Fine it's just I watched everyone I know get sorted into Gryffindor. I feel like the odd ball, the black sheep of my friends."
"Well you know us so you know two people over here now. Besides I had a few friend sorted into Gryffindor and Huffle puff they probably won't talk to me now." Phoenix said looking at the other tables to her friends before she turned back around to the Sirrina and Clair.
"We're better off sticking to out own kind," Clair's voice was filled with pride as she spoke like a true Slytherin." She looked down the table to a boy with slicked back platinum hair." I'll see you girls latter," Getting up she walked down to him and sat down jumping into whatever conversation they were in.
"Don't worry Sirrina, I didn't think I belonged in the house either. I wouldn't have mind being in Gryffindor or a Huffle puff why that daft hat put me here beats me."
She smiled at Phoenix" I would have loved to been a Raven Claw or Gryffindor but, I'll have to make the best of this. I'm going to follow my heart and show everyone I'm not some pure blood obsessed power hungry person."
"Go for it, I'm right behind you all the way,"
Sirrina's mood had improved at least she had made two friends. Looking over to the Gryffindor table the Weasleys, Harry and Hermione waved. She waved back to her other friends once again getting weird looks from several tables and teammates. Maybe the hat was right and this was the begging to the trail she would blaze.
Well what do you think good, bad ,ok? Like I said I never really ever thought I would actually sit down and write out this story it's been locked up in my head since the third book came out. But this is for my friend savannah who begged I finally write it.
