Slytherin
Summary: She was the lone Slytherin in her family. The rest were everything but. But no, she just had to be different. Drabble.
A/N: I decided to write a drabble series from the POV of an OC in each house. Actually, I started with Ravenclaw but it was actually just a romance, so I'm gonna post that when I'm done, but write a general Ravenclaw eventually. So, here is my Slytherin one!
When I was growing up, my parents spoke of the Slytherin house as a place where all the doomed go, so when I went to Hogwarts, I prayed that I would be a Ravenclaw. That's the house I always wanted to be in. You see, I grew up in a family of mainly Gryffindors with a few Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws thrown in there just for variety. But Slytherin? No.
We were the typical Gryffindors. We hated Slytherins. I grew up that way. Yet when I went to Hogwarts, there was no stopping me. I had plans for my life, and by Merlin I was going to succeed.
…. But I had too much ambition. The sorting hat heard my plans for one second before it roared out Slytherin. Ouch. I remember the look my sister Katie gave me from the Hufflepuff table. I've never seen her look so disgusted.
Yeah, it was tough, my family so disappointed in me. But I was determined to go somewhere. They only fueled me on. I had to prove them wrong.
Seven years later and here I am. Head Girl, and going to Healer training right out of Hogwarts. I stood as my name was call and thanked Professor McGonagall as I took my diploma.
I guess Slytherins really can get somewhere.
A/N: Well, I hope you like it. Please review! Tell me, what house do you want next? What house are you in? Are you interested in what house I'm in? Well, I'm a Slytherin. Last but not least, I appreciate critique!
