Author's Note- I want to thank my friends Alena, Grace, Sofia and Giovanna. Just saying. This story takes place at the end of The Deathly Hallows, when the characters' kids are going to Hogwarts.
Chapter 1
"The name's Malfoy. Sliserah Malfoy. But you can call me Slizz," said the girl. She was dressed in a long, flowing, ice-blue gown that matched her eyes. It was decorated with sparkling streaks of mahogany red shooting upwards from the bottom and fading away at the waist. Her hair looked exactly the same, ice blue with jets of red.
The other girl, the one sitting across from her, had given a slight start when she entered the car, but now showed no sign of surprise about the girl's name or appearance. She herself had long brown hair, almost bronze. She was wearing a dark green minidress with brown leggings that had holes in the knees. "Lavender Longbottom," she said. "Daughter of Neville Longbottom and Luna Lovegood."
"Daughter of Draco Malfoy and Pansy Parkinson," said Slizz. "I expect to see you in Slytherin. You've got the natural pull of one. I myself am certain of my placement. My family's been in Slytherin for ages. My father says that it's the only house good enough for a Malfoy."
"Oh really?" asked Lavender. "Are you sure it isn't-" She froze. Slizz had put her wand up to Lavender's throat.
"Finish that sentence, I dare you. See where it gets you."
"-the only house they've ever been in. Gosh, Slizz. I was just wondering how you would know if you've never been in another house."
"Interesting," said Slizz, lowering her wand. "Nice to meet someone who asks the same questions. I dare say we'll be friends."
Just then the trolley lady clattered up to the door. "Anything off the trolley, dearies?" she questioned.
"Chocolate frogs," said Slizz. "Ten of them. And two chocolate wands." She handed the lady the money.
"And for you, my dear?" said the woman, turning to Lavender.
"Two packages of Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans, and two pumpkin pasties." Clearly, the girls had figured out the menu.
Taking the food back to the seats of the compartment, the girls smiled and split the food in half.
They had just finished eating when a prefect came down the corridor. Stopping at their door, he said, "Change into your robes. We'll be reaching Hogwarts in fifteen minute's time."
They pulled out their robes and shut the blinds and door. Slizz already had her Slytherin house uniform. She wore silver leggings with green diagonal stripes, black Mary Janes with silver snake-head buckles, a pleated silver miniskirt with green hems, and a green collar and a silver and green striped tie. She fastened her black robes over this with a silver snake-shaped pin.
Lavender simply put her black robe on over her clothes. However, she fastened them with a green snake-head. "I never told anyone this," she said nervously," but I've always wanted to be in Slytherin."
"Good," said Slizz. "Then you need a new name."
"What?" asked Lavender.
"Lave," said Slizz, "Your new name is Lave. Short for Lavender, see, but it sounds cooler than Lav."
"Okay," said Lave, smiling devilishly.
