The chamber of Secrets
The first time round
Chapter 1
Annabella Bolts was on her way back to Hogwarts. It was her fifth year and she wasn't looking forward to school starting back. She had been a rebel but fourth year when she had seen what that nasty Olive Hornby was doing to poor myrtle she had to a point, changed her act. So she had become myrtle and her friends personal body guard. Other then these sad young girls she didn't really have any friends. She was after an adventure anything other then work, which was something you would never expect from a ravenclaw. She sighed stepping through the barrier 9 ¾, this was going to be a long year.
Indeed less to say she had no idea just how long it was really going to be.
...
It was his fifth year and much to his mothers approval and his own disgust on his coat pocket was a shiny prefect badge. He couldn't understand it, he'd never been a particular good student sure he was bright being a ravenclaw but it didn't mean he ever behaved himself. He was a Black for crying out loud. He wasn't meant to be in ravenclaw, his whole family had been in slytherin. His parents had barely spoken to him since his arrival back in first year. He had been raised by the family house elf. School wasn't any better then Hogwarts the slytherin's thought of him as a blood traitor and the rest of the school glared at him because he was a Black. He had stopped caring along time ago only managing to make two friends in his five years. After he had sat through the boring prefect session he strolled his way down the train searching first his mates.
"hey Black, Icarus!" he spun around on the spot. Grinning widely was David with his new girlfriend hanging off his shoulder. Icarus eyes narrowed. The blonde gave him the filthiest look she could muster. She was probably consider pretty if her face wasn't screwed up in a scowl. Her name was Mary something or rather, he didn't really care, the girl was just a cow.
"Dave." Icarus grinned back ignoring the blonde girl completely. "good summer?"
"yeah me and Mary went to see Rosaleen sing she's that Irish one witch weekly been raving about. Run into Benny yet?"
Icarus raised his eyebrow but said nothing about the fact his mate had not only read witch weekly but gone to see a girly singer. "not yet why?" Icarus had picked up the nervous jitter in Dave's voice.
"he ah had a run in with…never mind." Dave shook his head. "come lets get a spot somewhere."
...
Annabella had been staring out the window thinking when a sudden thump hit her. In the shape of Greta's fist in her arm.
Annabella looked around at the sudden silence.
"were you even listening Bella?" snapped Myrtle. She resisted the urge to roll her eyes because it was quite clear she hadn't been paying attention since she sat down. "I was asking what you thought of Riddle. Don't you think his the most handsome thing alive?" Annabella felt a groan coming on. When the sliding door flew open.
...
Icarus had sat down with David and said girlfriend but Benny hadn't showed. He was about go find him when the boy enter their compartment.
"what are you doing here?" Benny snapped acidly. Icarus frowned.
"well hello to you too."
"not hello, get lost! I don't want anything to do with a dirty rotten Black." he spat. "you and your sister can rot in hell for all I care." Mary seemed to be enjoying this far to much and Icarus knew that Dave and Benny were best mates so he had no help.
"I don't have anything to do with her you know that." Icarus growled.
"just leave Black." Benny's words were like ice. Never had he seen his friend look so cold and angry.
Icarus got up taking his stuff and left swiftly anger fuming off him as he went.
...
Olive Hornby stood in the doorway with a smirk on her face.
"well look who it is, moaning moping myrtle, Hansel oh wait I mean Greta, Frida falling and Bell's hells what a combination its like a hurricane has been here and this is the after effect. Sad, really." both Annabella and Greta jumped to their feet wands at the ready.
"one more word out of you." Greta threatened.
"what you'll poke my eye out, like you could touch me." she glared and marched off all of a sudden.
"all bark and no bite that one." Frida smiled lazily. When the door of the compartment slide open for a second time. Greta jumped up raising her wand thinking it was Olive back again. Annabella jumped up just as quick whipping her hand over Greta's mouth before she could utter the spell.
He didn't look up sitting down by the window opposite where the girls were standing. The younger girl froze eyes glued on the boy present. Annabella however gaped.
"no way."
He looked up finally registering where he had wondered into.
"how in merlins in name did you become a prefect Black?"
