p class="MsoNormal"span style="font-size: 16.0pt; line-height: 115%;" "Hey Amara wait up!" I looked behind me to see Scarlett, Celine, Hazel, Ella, Clover, Jasmine and Anemone running to catch up to me "aren't you excited to be going to Hogwarts?!" they all nodded as we got on the train. "I hope I am in Ravenclaw." We all stopped to look at this short blonde girl who had no shoes on "who are you?" The girl stuck out her hand for me to shake "hi I'm Ligeia and you are?" I shook her hand "I'm Amarantham but you can call me Amara and this is Scarlett, Hazel, Jasmine, Celine, Ella, Clover and Anemone." Ligeia smiled at us as I opened the door to an empty compartment "do you want to sit with us Ligeia?" Ligeia nodded as we all sat down "so what did you do over the summer Amara?" I looked up from my book "well my uncle showed me how to suck people's souls out from making eye contact with them and I can control people with one look but other than that nothing but reading and lying around the castle." They all nodded excepting my short answer "what are you?" I looked at Ligeia who had stopped reading and was looking at me "well I am 10% human, 30% veela, 30% vampire and 30% demon but there is no name of what I am, I have looked." Ligeia sat her book down "wow. What do you eat, when do you sleep?" I put my hand up motioning for her to stop her bombardment of questions "I eat just like any human and I sleep just like everyone else that is the only thing I inherited from my human gene." Ligeia said nothing as we sat in silence for some time until we heard the train come to a stop as everyone got off the train. Hazel grabbed my hand as we made our way over to a professor who was calling for all first years, when all the first years had gathered we got into boats as we road to the huge castle on the cliff. "alright when I call your name you will come up and sit on the stool while I put the sorting hat on your head then when the hat says witch house you are in you will go sit with your house." With that said the professor turned and walked into the huge mess hall with all of us following behind her, she told us to wait next to the stairs that lead to a stage where the other professors sat. "Now we will begin. Scarlett!" Scarlett made her way up to the stage and sat on the stool while the hat was placed on her head. em'Well let's take a look, ah you are smart, cunning, loyal, well there is only one house to put you in, SLYTHERIN!' /emScarlett jumped off the stool and ran over to the slytherin table "Amarantham!" I slowly made my way up to stool and slide onto it 'emah now I have not got the pleasure to look into a demons head before but…. No you are not just a demon you are a veela, vampire and human along with being a demon. Well now since you are 60% dark creature there is only one house you will survive in, SLYTHERIN!"/em I smiled as I made my way to Scarlett, as the professor stood there staring at me until someone cleared there throat and the professor continued down the list. Celine, Hazel, Clover, Jasmine and Ella got sorted into Slytherin but Anemone got sorted into Ravenclaw along with Ligeia, "hey Amara look that guy is looking at you. Maybe he thinks you're cute." I looked at the guy Hazel was referring to as he quickly looked away when I looked up at him, "I know who that is Abraxisus talks about him all the time and he even came to stay with us one summer, his name is Tom Riddle." I looked at Ella who stared at Tom Riddle "well he is nothing special so you can stop gawking at him." Ella whimpered in submission at my harsh remark, I sighed as Ella cowardly scooting close to Clover who put a protective arm around her "I'm sorry Ella for snapping at you, it's just I am going to need all of your help to protect me and to help me with controlling my new found powers." They all nodded understanding their mission as my protectors. We finished eating as we talking about the upcoming school year until the perfects lead us down to the dungeon where Tom Riddle was waiting for all the first years. "Welcome to Slytherin, I am the king and you will obey me or I will punish you." before he could continue Ella raised her hand "um… why do we have to obey you?" Tom didn't answer but simply raised his wand; before I knew what I was doing I had pulled Ella behind me as Tom fired the curse at me. I stood there with my eyes closed in pain as someone held me up until Tom stopped the curse "hmm I didn't think anyone could stay standing that long under the Crucio curse." I breathed a sigh as the pain started to leave my body "yea well I am part demon and vampire so I don't get affected by the curse that much and I had to endure much worse than some stupid curse, and you had no right to curse me." Tom put his wand way "I never intended for you to get hit but you pulled the girl that I was intending to hit behind you." I looked at Ella who was crying as Clover held her "you had no right to try and curse her, she just asked a simple question and you cursed her." Tom sat back down "all of you leave but you." Tom pointed at me as everyone left the common room. I stood there a while after everyone left "so you are part demon and vampire, is that all or is there more." Tom motioned for me to sit in the chair in front of him "no I am 10% human, 30% veela, 30% vampire and 30% demon." Tom studied me for a while "tell me how you came by those weird combinations." I breathed as I got ready to tell him "well my father is the vampire king and my uncle is the demon king and my mother is the veela queen and part human, but I mostly lean more to my demon and vampire side o and my name is Amarantham but everyone calls me Amara." Tom nodded as he seemed to be in deep thought, I took the time to survey the room. The common room was decorated with green and black and silver everywhere. "Well Amara I guess I will see you tomorrow, allow me to show you to your room." Tom got up as I jumped off the couch and followed him up some stairs. We stopped outside of a wood door "well this is your room you should find all your thinks already as the foot of your bed, good night Amara." Tom leaned in close to me and tucked my Blonde hair behind my ear "meet me at the entrance to the common room at 7 tomorrow morning." I bite my bottom lip as Tom kissed me on the cheek and in one fluid motion turned and walked down the stairs. /span/p
